So let's begin....
What you need:
1) Laptop/PC with Internet running Windows
2)Moto G4 and Moto G4 Plus USB driver,?*Minimal ADB, and Fastboot tool driver.
3) USB cable
4) Patience
How to unlock the?*bootloader of Moto G4 and Moto G4 Plus
a) Before proceedings make sure that your device is at least 70% charged.
b) Enable USB Debugging by going into Setting> About Phone and tap on build number for 8 times. This should unlock Developer Options. Now get into Developer Options and enable USB Debugging.
c) Install?*Minimal ADB,?*Fastboot Tools, and?*Moto G4 or Moto G4 Plus Driverson your PC.
d) Now go to the folder where Minimal ADB & Fastboot Tools are present (must be somewhere in C drive). Now open Command Prompt by pressingShift Key + Right Mouse Button?*and select Open Command Window here.
e) Now switch off your phone. Then press Volume up + Power Key together. You will get into Fastboot Mode. Now connect it to the PC via USB cable.
f) Now type the following command into the Command Window to check if your phone is properly connected and is detected by PC or not.
fastboot devices
g) Now you need the unlock data to unlock the bootloader. Type the following command into the Command Window
fastbootoemget_unlock_data
h) It will display a long string which you need to copy into notepad, remove all the spaces which are present and save it somewhere.
i) Now go to?*Motorola official website. Create an account if you don’t have any. Log in to the account and go to the Unlock Bootloader option and paste the string which you copied in the notepad earlier.
j) Now click on Can my device be unlocked. Select I Agree and then Request Unlock Code. You should receive a mail from Motorola with similar codes within few minutes.
k) Now copy those codes, open Command Window and type the following commands
fastboot OEM unlock (insert the code without braces)
l) Now you have successfully unlocked the bootloader and now you can install recovery.
Though it's pretty much sufficient but if you ask... I'll post some screenshots of the process as well......
Don't hesitate to ask if stuck anywhere....

I have no idea how this thread is different from the one over here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/how-to/guide-newbie-resource-thread-t3386584/
If you have found the way to root, post it there itself or in the Chainfire's thread, why bother creating a new thread to teach people the same thing again and again? Please try searching before posting.
And these lines my friend clearly say you didn't even attempt to search through :

It is really straightforward, make sure you have mentioned the proper serial number, product id, and imei numbers while getting the unlock code.
Fill and follow the instructions on this page: https://emui.huawei.com/en/plugin.php?id=unlock
Type this number on your phone app to get serial number and product id *#*#1357946#*#*
Also type the first IMEI number you see on your phone.
Ensure you don't have any trailing or leading spaces when you copy-paste the code. Your fastboot command is correct.

I had checked the IMEI,serial number and product id for many times and they're really right , but the unlock password I got seems wrong,It's unbelievable.....
Couldn't you use the unlocker program?
It's a paid software. You pay once and it will do the job.

As it's Android One device, it probably uses Google OTA service. If you would be able to provide me with system fingerprint, there's a chance for me to get full OTA link to start up the development for this and possibly other devices.
How to do it?
Install Terminal Emulator from Google Play, type:
Code:
getprop | grep fingerprint
and click enter.
if you want to provide more of usable data, use just
Code:
getprop

No update available yet, so I can't check currently if there will be full OTA zips. If you still have the access to this device, try getting kdz download link or file itself (via the official LG tool). Or post/*pm* the IMEI (it may be without last three numbers, because I don't need your own, but just any of them to simulate LG Bridge request). Basically, the only way to get fw now is to get the kdz. Aand last question: is G7 One bootloader unlockable? From what I saw in getprop, there was a prop suggesting that OEM unlock switch is blocked.

After enabling developer mode, I am given the option of unlocking the bootloader from the developer menu. I am able to enable it but I didn't test it.
The config [sys.oem_unlock_allowed]: [1] is now set
I tried using LG Mobile Support tool. Software is up to date, so I went into Upgrade Recovery menu option. It did a few checks and failed after "analyzing software version."
The error was "problem with communication between cell phone and PC." Maybe LG's support tool isnt updated to handle the phone yet.
I'll PM you an IMEI

Ok, managed to decrypt LGMST thingies. So, it seems that LG just didn't push any kdz yet. But the good news is that we should be able to fetch them as soon as they do it. In the free time, see if you can extract the Camera app from the device. Through Solid Explorer, for example.

I may not be savvy enough to test if it is unlocked. I ran "adb reboot bootloader" but it rebooted normally. Is there another way I can check?

Maybe try

Bootloader unlocked from dev options.
I recall seeing other phones with that option that did not actually have unlockable bootloaders.

Thanks but that's just a setting that you have to change to enable the unlocking. You also have to enable USB Debugging in Developer Options, then reboot into fastboot as instructed here.
Enable USB-Debugging on your phone. USB-Debugging is required for the commands “adb” and “fastboot” to work. To enable USB-Debugging, go to Settings > About phone > Software info and tap Build number 7 times. Return to the previous screen, select Developer options and enable USB-Debugging.
Enable OEM unlock on your phone. Activating the "Enable OEM unlock" is necessary for the bootloader unlock. To enable OEM unlock, go to Settings > Developer options and check Enable OEM unlock.
You can view the Device ID by connecting your phone to the PC using a USB cable and entering "adb reboot bootloader" in DOS command window. Your phone will reboot into the fastboot mode. Enter "fastboot oem device-id" in DOS command window.
Are you able to retrieve the Device ID?
EDIT: Never mind. I just got this from LG Support Chat: "As per our MC Specialists, unlocking the bootloader on G7 One is not possible anymore."

I can confirm that this phone will not enter fastboot with the "adb reboot bootloader" command. It just reboots to system like normal.

Nah, we are seemingly clogged, until kdz start to distribute. For now, you may just capture the OTA link in adb.
Heads up for anyone interested in this phone: it is available on ebay. I've looked a few times over the last week, and there have been several of them up for grabs for a reasonable price. It's also available on Canadian Amazon (amazon.ca).
If anyone is wondering what frequency bands the phone will use, let me know and I can call around and ask some place that sells this phone.

This is a guide on how to unlock the bootloader, install TWRP, and root your Huawei Nova 3i/P Smart+. (INE-LX1/INE-LX2). You need at least $20 to unlock the bootloader.
Thanks for @medoamer for trying this first and helping me out!

/*
* Your warranty will be void if you follow this guide.
*
* Only YOU are responsible for any damage done to your
* device by following this guide. I'm not affiliated with, or
* responsible for any service mentioned below.
*
*/
You will need:
-A working Nova 3i/P Smart+.
-$20/$22/$55 depending on your preferences.
-A Windows PC. (PM me if you have a Linux one, I will update the guide accordingly)
-A working SD card that is tested and working with your phone.
-A reliable USB cable which works for connecting your phone to your PC.
-A backup (optional)
PART 1: Bootloader Unlock
To unlock your bootloader you need a bootloader unlock code. Huawei stopped giving bootloader codes in end of July. But you can buy one in one of the webistes below. You have to send your IMEI to them, and they will generate the unlock code and send it to you. You can see your IMEI at System>>About Phone>>IMEI.
1.) Global Unlocking Solutions for $20/$22
First of all, I know that the website looks super sketchy. But @medoamer, myself, and a lot of other XDA users had success with this method. I spent the extra $2 for the fast service, but it is up to you.
2.) FunkyHuawei for $55
The advantage of FunkyHuawei is that they have a good track record with XDA and other services, a refund policy, and just you know what you are getting into. You can ask for a refund if the code does not work.
3.) Ministry of Solutions for €30
A lot of XDA users had success with this method also. I don't know much information about this method, but the ysay they offer a refund if the code doesn't work.
Got the code? Good. You are mostly done now...
Install ADB and Fastboot. I'm not going to give a guide on how, you can search for it. Download and install Hisuite from here. Connect your phone to your PC, and open a command prompt on your ADB folder. Run,
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Wait for your device to reboot and show a screen with title "FASTBOOT & RESCUE MODE". In the next command replace <code> with the unlock code you bought. The next step will wipe all the data on your device, so you might want to backup your important data.
Code:
fsatboot oem unlock <code>
Congratulations, you just unlocked the bootloader of your device. Your warranty is legally void now. Reboot the device with the command;
Code:
fastboot reboot
PART 2: Install TWRP and Magisk
First, connect your SD card to your phone, download Magisk ZIP here, and place it in your SD card.
Reboot to Fastboot again with,
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Download the TWRP image here and copy it your ADB folder. Use this command to flash TWRP.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrp-kirin.img
Hold the power button to turn your phone off. Disconnect your phone from your PC. Now hold the power button and Vol. Up button until the Huawei logo appears, then let go of both buttons. The blue TWRP logo should appear and after a second you would see the TWRP menu. If you see the Keep System Read-Only menu, swipe right.
Go to Install>>Select Storage>>Micro SD Card. You should see the Magisk ZIP you placed there earlier. Select it, and Confirm to flash. After the flashing is over, reboot your phone.
Congratulations, now you have a rooted device!
If you need any help along the way, or end up bricking your device, I will help you the best I can.
Good Luck!
Tested procedure on PAR-LX9
I have tried the method in my Nova 3, PAR-LX9, and I confirm that this works.
I did search a little for the TWRP image since I can't access the TWRP image in your link..
If we can place another thread for the PAR-LX9 thread then that will be great.
By the way, this is my first post at xda, hopefully this post complies with the xda's rules

Hey sorry bout that man, must of been my bad :cyclops:
Can anyone help me?
I can't for the life of me get Magisk to install on my Nova 3i. Every time i install it with TRWP, the install runs fine, then when i reboot the device, it says "Magisk not installed"??? I've tried updating, it doesn't work. Ive tried to download the official firware, but the extractor tool doesnt work with Nova 3i. Anyone help me???
Thanks
So I just got this phone just for fun, it was 75 USD, and went straight to XDA to root it so i can remove some bloat etc. but holy moly i ended up have 10 tabs with different guides open, i have compiled what I did to get this phone rooted.
I want to thank everyone who made different threads about rooting and installing Magisk on this phone, i have read so many guides now so i cant remember their names!.
BUT THANK YOU!.
Let's get to it
Here is what I did for to unlock the bootloader, install magisk and root my Huawei P20 Lite ANE-LX1
First you need to install HiSuite: https://consumer.huawei.com/minisite/HiSuite_en/
and then install ADB and Fastboot drivers: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip
(extract the platform-tools folder to the root of your C: drive)
Plug in your phone and let it install drivers.
Then you need to downgrade your firmware to 146 using Dload method, as DCU Client can't read the bootloader unlock code on newer firmwares.
I used "Huawei P20 Lite ANE-L21 Anne-L21 8.0.0.146(C432) Firmware Android 8.0.0 EMUI 8.0.0 05014YXX androidhost.ru.zip" (https://androidhost.ru/6ti)
When finished downloading, open the zip file, open software and copy the folder "Dload" to the root of your EXTERNAL SD CARD, not internal storage!.
Now take your phone and "dial" *#*#2846579#*#* go to Software Upgrade -> SdCard Upgrade and click OK.
Your phone should now begin installing the old firmware, when the phone first boots up, dont set it up, turn it off and hold Volume up + Power and select Wipe Data/Factory Reset, Wipe Cache, and then reboot.
With the phone booted, enable USB Debugging (Settings > System > About Phone > version number > Tap it 7 times to become developer, AND click OEM-Unlock, then go to Settings > System > Developer Options > USB Debugging).
Now we need to buy 4 credits from DC-Unlocker (4 Euro) ( https://www.dc-unlocker.com/buy ) when you have 4 credits on your account, go and download https://hcu-client.com/download/hcu-client-v1-0-0-0287/ Password: hcu
extract the contents of the zip to a folder called HCU in the root of your C: drive
Open up HCU.exe, type in your username and password (check your mail, the info will be there).
Grab your phone and dial *#*#2846579#*#*, go to Background Settings -> USB Port Settings -> Manufacture Mode and press close.
Plug in your phone and let it install drivers.
Open up HCU client, select Unlock, and then Read Bootloader Code.
when you have the code, save it!
Turn off your phone
Hold volume down and power, now we are in fastboot mode.
Open CMD and write:
CD C:\platform-tools
fastboot oem unlock YOUR UNLOCK KEY HERE
Accept the stuff and unlock your bootloader, your phone will be factory reset, and all your data lost if you dont have a backup.
Turn the phone off and on again, set it up, and go to settings -> System -> System update, and update, mine was ANE-LX1 8.0.0.162(C432)
Now re-enable USB Debugging option in Developer Options.
install Magisk Manager (https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/v18.0/Magisk-v18.0.zip)
Download patched_ramdisk.img (https://mega.nz/#!GWp1ia6R!xUcg_T_17v1ktlFQPq-Ujo4DRKfAg8E4-_k2J2zLO60)
and place it in the root of your phones internal storage
Open up Magisk Manager, press install -> install -> Patch Boot Image File -> find the patched_ramdisk.img and click OK.
Now open CMD and write:
CD C:\platform-tools>
adb pull /storage/emulated/0/download/patched_boot.img
Now you should have the patched_boot.img in your platform tools folder.
Turn off your phone, hold volume down and power to get to fastboot mode.
in CMD write:
CD C:\platform-tools>
fastboot flash ramdisk patched_boot.img
reboot your phone and check if magisk was installed correctly and check if you have root.
Hope this works for you!
Great guide. Just a tip instead of using cd C:\platform-tools you can shift+right click on the adb folder and click "open powershell here". Saves some time
Thank you for this, but I have a question about this part:
Then you need to downgrade your firmware to 146 using Dload method, as DCU Client can't read the bootloader unlock code on newer firmwares.

Mine is ANE-LX3, what would be the equivalent to 146 so that DC-unlocker can read it?
Yes, you just need to find a firmware for LX3, i dont think flashing a 64gb firmware on a 32gb device is smart.

Maybe you already know but I learned that you can just clic the address bar in a Windo(w)s system and write 'cmd' which is exactly the same as 'open a command prompt that starts in this very specific folder'.
E.g. in attachments.
Now I just want to know what firmware to downgrade to :/

Try and use this firmware:.

Using that as a reference I found one for my region I think (C69) that says:
Integrates Google security patches released in Apr 2018 for improved system security.

Is this April FullOTA a safe security patch to work with DC-u?
ANE-LX3C69CUSTC69
An another one big question: I am in the believe that my P20 lite is Single-SIM. Does it matter if that FullOTA (or any ROM/Update.app/etc) says DUAL-SIM? Should I look for the oldest Single-SIM??? or a Dual-SIM file would work just fine?

If its single sim, you need a single sim firmware and just use a firmware under 150, you should be okay

You first flash 146 firmware with Service menu.
Then unlock bootloader
Then update via the settings menu

thank you very much for your guide, brugernavn.:good:
I arrived without problems at the point: "Turn the phone off and on again, set it up, and go to settings -> System -> System update, and update, mine was ANE-LX1 8.0.0.162(C432)"
but the phone can not find updates ... (i before was in 150) but this isn't a problem.
My doubt is on how to install Magisk Manager (https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/...gisk-v18.0.zip) .... with TWRP ?
Thank you again
