Change from Chinese rom to global rom.

Hi there I have the chance to get two of these good smartphones in China for a good price. The problem is that they have the Chinese rom on it and my parents need the italian language. Will it be possible to flash the global rom or just add the italian language?
Thanks.

Based on my experience b4 unlocking 5A, the only way you can switch from China to Global is to flash it via test point. Unless you've unlocked the phone, you could flash it via fastboot. Is your 5A unlocked yet?

I haven't bought them yet. So I just need to unlock it and flash the rom?

Yep, that's all you need to do. After an unlock, you do have the option to relock your bootloader (which maybe you're already familiar with). The guide is on the miui forums. Good luck!

[Outdated] How to unlock and root your new Honor 8x. Instructions inside

January 2023 Edit: The guide below is now outdated. The technique still works, but some of the steps have changed, and may not reflect your experience when rooting. Proceed with caution.
Hello XDA. I have spent the past couple of weeks struggling with unlocking and rooting this awesome device. After some researching I have decided to put this guide together after stumbling on a lot of fake guides on Google that don't work for the Honor 8x. I hope this helps you!
Step 1: Purchase a bootloader code.
Unfortunately, since Huawei stopped providing unlock codes, there is no way around this requirement. Some older guides suggest DC Unlocker, but this does NOT work with newer Huawei devices, and there are no known exploits to get around this. I have provided some options below (which have been tested by XDA members). All you need to do is provide them your IMEI, which can be found under Settings > System > About Phone.​​Ministry of Solutions: https://ministryofsolutions.com/202...-unlock-service-jsn-l21-jsn-l22-jsn-al00.html​FunkyHuawei: https://funkyhuawei.club/buycodes [No longer providing service]​Global Unlocking Solutions: [Website gone - 404 Error]​Various eBay sellers: https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=huawei+bootloader​​Alternate solution: Try asking a Huawei Service center near you. https://www.androidauthority.com/honor-india-bootloader-unlocking-933231/​Confirmed working at some locations outside of Asia.​
Step 2: Download ADB.
Link here: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip​And unzip it to somewhere on your computer.​
Step 3: Setup your phone
Go to Settings > System > About Phone, and tap "Build Number" 7 times to unlock Developer mode. Go back to System, and tap Developer Options. Enable OEM Unlock and USB Debugging.​
Step 4: Unlocking your device
Connect your phone to your PC via USB. Make sure you select "Transfer files" when the message pops up on your phone, and select Trust this computer when the debugging warning pops up. Open your ADB folder, hold Shift and right-click, then select "Open Powershell window" or "Open command prompt". In the next window, type "adb devices" and make sure your device is listed (If not, check to make sure USB debugging is enabled, or reconnect the USB cable.)​After that, type "adb reboot bootloader". Once that is done, type "fastboot oem unlock xxx" (replace xxx with the unique code you purchased in Step 1). Warning! This will format your phone and return it to stock configuration. Your phone now has an unlocked bootloader!​
Step 5: Install Magisk Manager.
Download and install the Magisk Manager app on your phone. APK here: https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/manager-v6.0.1/MagiskManager-v6.0.1.apk​
Step 6: Flashing twrp and Magisk
Download the latest twrp image: https://dl.twrp.me/kirin/ and place it into your ADB folder.​Then download this magisk ZIP: https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/v17.1/Magisk-v17.1.zip and place it on a spare Micro SD card, and put that card in the device.​Reconnect your device to the PC, again open a Powershell/Command Prompt (as in Step 4).​Type "adb reboot bootloader", then type "fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrp-kirin.img". This should complete successfully. Turn off your device by holding down the power button.​Disconnect the phone from USB (do not skip this part otherwise you are unable to boot into recovery). Then hold "Volume UP" and "Power" until the blue Honor logo shows up. Release both buttons. You should see a Teamwin logo and twrp will load.​This version of twrp is a work in progress so the touchscreen does not work (this is currently being worked on by the folks at twrp builder https://twrpbuilder.github.io/. As soon as they fix it, I will update this guide!). A temporary fix is by using an OTG Cable https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/51HI4XhstKL._SX425_.jpg and a standard USB mouse. Use it to swipe-right and select "Install". You might need to "Select storage" and choose your SD card. Find the Magisk zip and install it, then reboot.​
Your Honor 8x phone is now rooted!

Thanks.
Edit: I will provide some instructions below if you wish to do a ota update to a newer version of EMUI (one of which was released recently for the Honor 8x).
* The root must be removed, and phone restored to factory stock before doing a ota update. The bootloader will remain unlocked (no change).
* Stock factory firmware currently can be restored in the Huawei eRecovery by restarting your phone, then on the "Your device has been unlocked" screen, press "Up" for three seconds. From here, you can download the latest version (This will format the phone). After updating, you must re-root from Steps 3 to 6 above (you can skip step 4).
* There should be an easier method to update without formatting, but the current version of twrp causes issues if you try and flash the update. (Error 9, as reported by some users)
I will update the guide when this is fixed.

I have been warned that this may not work for a Qualcomm chipset. Will update if there is any further information about that.

To my knowledge, only the 8x Max has a Qualcomm chipset. All of the regular 8x devices have a Kirin one.

Interesting to see a TWRP build for the new Kirin 710. @chickenwingding Do you think that they will be able to make Nova 3i a TWRP build too? I still didn't unlock it, but I'm going to do it soon, and I've never ported recoveries before, and because this is my first Kirin device I would like some help regarding that. But looking at the log of their app it looks like they reject Huawei/Honor devices now. How did you get them to build Honor 8X TWRP?

New in Huawei devices
I have an Honor 8x Chinese version, once I completed this tutorial could I change the region to my terminal flashing a European rom?
Thanks for the post.

I purchased my honor 8X (AL00a) from China and its developer page doesn't have "OEM Unlock" option. It is not there... Believe me... So, even if I can get an unlock code, I will not able to unlock it. Right? Do you know any solution about that? Huawei closed all ways I guess...

The Nova 3i uses the same SoC as the Honor 8x, so the same recovery image might work for it. And the twrp builder group don't do Huawei/Honor anymore because the company stopped providing bootloader unlocks, so it's very difficult (and expensive) for new owners to root their phone. They said it's not worth developing for newer Huawei devices anymore. The reason they did it for me was because I promised them a cash donation.

Excuse me, do you know why to give you unlock bootloader code they ask your phone number, your home address as well as second IMEI number? It's really necessary? Thank you

Second IMEI number is required to generate unlock code. Other... I write fake address etc ,?

Officially no, but for me and several others it still worked, even with an EU phone.
I had to upgrade to Android 10 and then follow the steps described here:

Btw., it's better to stick to the official post from realme I linked above, apps and links on youtube could be malicious.

I am using RM5P Indian version. The youtube link is safe. I didn't find any issues.
More than that, this apk was already listed in xda by faisalxp. I realized that late.

Yes, that's exactly what I was on before unlocking and rooting (INDIAN version).
Install adb and fastboot drivers in PC.
Good practice is to put all the necessary files in the C:/adb folder for installing twrp recovery.
Backup your data/pictures/notes etc first to pc.
Enable OEM unlock in Developer options. Enable USB debugging.
Install deep test apk and follow the instructions and get into FASTBOOT.
In fastboot type: fastboot flashing unlock and enter, and then unlock.

Yes, you can use the app prompt "Apply to exit in-depth test". It will reboot to Fastboot where you need to type the command to lock.
Fastboot help - will give you all the commands available.
Commands available:
locking/unlocking:
Fastboot flashing lock|unlock Lock/unlock partitions for flashing
I suggest you research a bit more. Phone might get bricked. Do it at your own risk.
You should not be on TWRP, go back to official recovery.
If you have rooted, UNROOT first and do the rest.

Actually when i press that button it shows this "You can only apply to exit in-depth test after carrying out bootloader lock operation in fastboot mode".
so I went into fastboot mode and used the command fastboot flashing lock it wiped my data and rebooted to welcome screen (language region setup)
Should I now use the app to "Apply to exit in-depth test"? or don't use the app?

Question Is It Possible To Root This Device?

Hello.
Forgive me if I am in the wrong thread.
I have the OP 9 5G Pro.
Software Version 11.2.7.7. LE5ACB
Sim is locked to T-Mobile.
OEM unlocking is enabled (using an ADB command found on an XDA OP9 forum).
But...
This is a Sprint device on T-Mobile network.
Questions:
1. Is my OEM Unlock truly unlocked? How do I check?
2. If so, can I follow the same bootloader unlock procedure as TMO/EU variants to obtain root?
3. Should I update to latest OOS before attemptng bootloader unlock?
Any help/advice would be appreciated.
Thank You.

You are in the correct forum. This forum is for OnePlus 9 Pro models of any kind (T-Mobile, Global, EU, China, India).
You have multiple options for rooting this device. I will list them out.
1. Follow the guide for applying for a token unlock here (will wipe data): https://www.oneplus.com/support/answer/detail/op588
2. Use TMO to EU MSM here (also will wipe data): https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...lock-bin-needed.4272837/page-19#post-86828151

1. If you're able to check the OEM Unlock option, then it definitely does work. If you're unsure, the requirement for being able to check that option is to have your SIM permanently unlocked. Also, when you boot to fastboot, when you type "fastboot flashing unlock", it should say it needs a token instead of needing OEM unlocked to be checked first.
2. Yes, you must follow the instructions for TMO variant of the phone because that's what you have. If you go with the second option, you can unlock like the EU variant without an unlock token, i.e. by typing "fastboot flashing unlock" and selecting "unlock the bootloader".
3. You don't need to update OOS before bootloader unlocking, however, your recovery WILL WIPE DATA! If your data is needed, let me know and I can provide backup instructions. Generally though, you can download your MSM or the EU conversion one, start the program, press F8, enter password "oneplus", and select the partitions to backup. Then press OK and press the readback button to backup your data.
One more thing to note. There's a fifty-fifty chance you may lose access to your DRM keys. If this happens, use the EU conversion MSM, unlock the bootloader straight away without updating the phone, then take a FULL system update, not the small 400-500 MB ones. That should fix your Widevine level back to L1. You only need this if you care about Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney+, or something along those lines.

I already know how to unlock the bootloader. I just know that on some TMobile variants of OnePlus devices, like the OnePlus 8 you have to go through a bunch of extra **** to be able to unlock the bootloader, but if you have the boot file that is prepatched with magisk you can just flash that as long as it is the same version. Does anyone know if you have to have the sim unlocked in order to unlock the bootloader like you do with the op8? Or can you just enable OEM unlock and then adb to unlock the bootloader?

Here is a guide for unlocking the bootloader on TMO OP9P.
T-Mobile OnePlus 9 Pro Bootloader Unlock

As for rooting, it is rather simple once the bootloader is unlocked..

You may know certain things, but I do not have a clue as to what you already know. Therefore I take it step by step to help you achieve what you are wanting to do!

I am working on the rooting instructions as of now and will post them for you complete with links! Be patient.

I wanted to confirm that you don't need sim unlock to unlock bootloader. You can enable oem toggle with adb or one+tool and unlock bootloader and root. I did need to submit my token and wait a week. There have been recent reports of the unlock bin sent back from OnePlus automatically isn't right and people are reaching out to support to get the right bin back.
I submitted my token, flashed to EU, unlocked bootloader without token, rooted. Then when my token arrived a week later, I went back to stock Tmo rom, unlocked with token, and rooted.
(I monitored the requests for sim unlock to see if I could find anything useful. I monitored failures and successful unlock packets and then went back to EU rom)

I already know how to unlock the bootloader. I just know that on some TMobile variants of OnePlus devices, like the OnePlus 8 you have to go through a bunch of extra **** to be able to unlock the bootloader, but if you have the boot file that is prepatched with magisk you can just flash that as long as it is the same version. Does anyone know if you have to have the sim unlocked in order to unlock the bootloader like you do with the op8? Or can you just enable OEM unlock and then adb to unlock the bootloader?

I meant to quote you in my above post. Sorry

termux proot-distro can root as well but android kernel not rooted

you sure can root Tmo stock rom. the numbers may be differet but the iteration of firmware is the same on all variants. Its been a while,but, my first OP9P i flashed whatever. Just use the boot.img from AA or EU but be careful. It has to match. Example: Tmo 11.2.4.4 compatible boot.img with 11.2.8.8 AA/EU/NA. And so on.
For me, I'm lost with the newer firmwares and just got back. Will be converting cause Tmo wont sim unlock my paid off phone. Sick of Tmobile at this point
