I achieved root today on REVVL V+ 5G.
This phone is made by wingtech and is a mediatek phone, so why is this in TCL under forums??
I know this sounds crappy but I cannot share all the details. Don't ask why, its complicated. Updates to follow.

Unlock bootloader with mtkclient since it is a mediatek phone. The exploit works lovely. Then root with magisk. Here is my patched 11 boot flashboot mode - flashboot flash boot magiskpatched.img <--. Example hope this helps people ---- T-Mobile USA Android 11
P.S. - Tidbits for those in need ┤Mod Edit├┤Link not allowed├
LMAO.
You want to keep it as a secret while using someone else's work?
Guys, just follow the guide here:
GitHub - bkerler/mtkclient: MTK reverse engineering and flash tool
MTK reverse engineering and flash tool. Contribute to bkerler/mtkclient development by creating an account on GitHub.

I paid $8.00 for a carrier unlock via remote TeamViewer on eBay. I asked if he could unlock the bootloader as well. Everything went well. I used the magisk boot.img posted somewhere on here to flash for root. So far everything working well. I pass safetynet but no luck with GPay.
Any possible way for this to work on the REVVL V 4G?
Anyone plan on doing a rom for this phone?

I'm going to borrow this for my guide. I'll give you credit. Mine works. So weird, two identical phones, one I patched the zipped img, the other I unpacked the img and patched. One will not work for the other and vice versa and I have no idea why. It seems to be the exact same device. But I've had two people brick and need recovery and maybe this could make it easier. Thanks. Hope you don't mind. Check out my guide: do you know an easier way to flash stock ROM? I haven't yet ported twrp. I returned mine to stock and sold them both today and I'm going to take a break

Yo, what happened? I seen a link to the patched img and a mod edit nix your video link. I replied taking about my guide, look again and the link is gone. DM that to me please, if you would be so kind. Do you have TWRP, payload.bin mt6833_scatter.txt, OTA? Anything you could give me would be awesome. If you want to edit my guide, feel free to offer any pointers. I'll edit the guide and give you credit. I don't know if that matters to you, or not. I like the attention, but at the same time I'm a perfectionist. I can't stop trying to make something better. Thanks in advance

I have the scatter for 6833 if anyone needs it. File enclosed as well as a few other tools and files I needed to root my revvl 6 5g, you should be able to do the rest on your own. Make sure when you are using mtkclient that you back up your preloader above all things in case you mess up. Your scatter will save your hide as well. I've also enclosed mtkclient bypass tool and the 6833 payload you will need as well. Good luck, and credit to Hovatek, and bkerley for their respective tools. If using sp flash tool use the enclosed scatter and the DA_allinone file for the other.

Hey, I'm trying to complete a guide for the revvl v+ 5g. Other people are reporting issues and we're trying to resolve it. We could use your help over here https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/root-flash-stock.4541841/ thanks in advance. Btw, I have that scatter already. It was weird how I got it, though. I found the source code somewhere, I just copied the text and removed the quotation marks and saved it in notepad. Spflash gave me trouble and I had to tinker with some things and bypass DA. But it worked. I thought it'd work for everybody, but now spflash isn't working for some folks, but then we found the newest version. It's not on the official site :/ but now some folks can't get back to stock even with correct files and firmware. I have at least 3 guys dead in the water. Any help would be appreciated. I know you have a life and all, but if you get the time

I don't know how much I can help; I'm little more than an amateur with an engineer type of learning capability and a tenacious drive. I suck at teaching, but will take a look at the thread anyway, because on the way to rooting a treble based a/b partition with tamper evident ro.props, plus having bricked my device 9 ways to Sunday, there's some possibility of being able to offer some assistance. See you there man.

Hi everyone, similar to the previous threads for
OP3, OP3T, OP5, OP5T, OP6, OP6T, OP7, OP7PRO, regular OP7T and OP7TPRO here is the EDL package (also known as MSM tool or unbrick tool) that can revive a bricked OnePlus 7T bought from T-Mobile.
It can also be used to rollback your phone to a previous release of OOS.
You can download the following versions:
ANDROID 10:
10.0.3 HD63CB
10.0.5 HD63CB
10.0.7 HD63CB (credits @viperbjk )
10.0.8 HD63CB (credits @viperbjk )
10.0.9 HD63CB
10.0.10 HD63CB
10.0.13 HD63CB
ANDROID 11:
11.0.1.5 HD63CB
Mirror for first and last MSMs: https://onepluscommunityserver.com/
It will only work with T-Mobile variant HD1907
Instructions:
Power your device off
Maintain volume up and volume down keys to get into Qualcomm EDL mode.
Launch MsmDownloadTool V4.0.exe.
Specific to 10.0.7 and 10.0.8
On the login prompt select "Other" in the dropdown menu and click on Next.
Wait a few seconds until main window shows up.
Click on Enum to be sure your device is detected and press Start.
Wait ~300 seconds
Enjoy your brand new device
FAQ:
My device isn't detected when I click on "Enum" button
Go to device manager and make sure your phone shows up as QDLOADER 9008.
If it shows up as QHUSB_BULK, it means Qualcomm driver wasn't installed automatically by Windows Update. Download the latest one from Microsoft website at http://download.windowsupdate.com/c..._fba473728483260906ba044af3c063e309e6259d.cab (source https://www.catalog.update.microsoft.com/Search.aspx?q=qualcomm hs usb 9008 ) and install it manually by right clicking on QHUSB_BULK and selecting "Update driver software" and "Browse my computer for driver software" to where you downloaded CAB file.
MSM tool is stuck on "Param pre-processing"
Ensure you're using the Qualcomm drivers linked in first part of this FAQ.
What is SMT Download mode?
Just don't try to unlock that mode, it will wipe your IMEI and your Widevine certificate if you use it.

Lots of testing. This year's convert process has be a tad bit harder due to OnePlus trying to make things a tad more difficult for us. Just stay patient and it will come soon in some form of manner.
So another little update. I managed to convert(a dirty way) and it involves at least being bootloader unlocked. I waited a week and got my code and immediately did this. This method isn't released yet but if you guys are interested in testing and have some skills in edl and know your way around python or adb please PM ME. We can get you into our testing group temporarily and try some methods to get you converted. This will be per discretion by me. If I don't think you can help I'm NOT going to add you.
Nice. I unfortunately need to wait until a bootloader unlock is possible since T-Mobile refuses to unlock mine.
This is really, REALLY good news. Well done, Joe!!

Hello there !
I got the RN8Pro, last week and i unlocked it today. I naturally started to look how to root/install TWRP. I found numerous threads with instructions on how to do it but i also found a lot of warnings that it may brick the device, and that if that happens i need a special account to be able to unbrick it. It seems that some methods will work for the Chinese version while bricking others and vice versa. I have the Global ROM version 11.0.3.0(PGGEUXM) and the model of my phone is M1906G7G. Do you think it's safe for me to try flashing TWRP or at least root through ADB ?
I have also searched for custom ROMs and did not find any. The phone is relatively new so i wouldn't mind if i had to wait a bit, but i have also read that people just don't want to develop for it because of the Mediatek chip. Everyone says that development is not possible because there is no source code the the Mediatek chip. But here it says that the sources have been released partially here and the rest here. Is there something that's missing from these repos that makes development impossible ?
I also would like to become more than just a user and learn how to make custom roms. I found this thread that compiles some guides but a lot of them seem a bit outdated and I'm lost. Is that a good starting point or i should i go elsewhere ?
Thanks ^^

I Think You Shouldn't Take Risk As Your Phone Has No Warranty
Has anyone got a factory image of the moto g30? To flash and get rid of stupid android 12! Doesn't matter particularly if its not android 11, I'll be able to upgrade. I take it flashing an old image mean's it'll include moto's software and stuff. Would rather not have a rooted device as I don't want to miss out on features.
You people and your unwillingness to get used to change. lol
But anyway, you can go back to A11 granted you unlock your bootloader and flash the firmware while you make sure it matches your software channel.
The firmware can be found on lolinet.
lolinet mirrors - firmware, software, iso etc.
lolinet mirrors - powered by h5ai
mirrors.lolinet.com
Thanks for your quick reply, honestly wouldn't have though it would be such a big deal but its stressing me tf out! How would one know which software channel one is?

Actually dont worry about that, worked it out
I saw on another thread that some people were struggling to unlock the bootloader... do you know how to circumvent that?
I had no issues when just following unlock instructions, and anyway, with a locked bootloader you CAN'T mess anything up (though you can delete all user data, which you'd do when manually flashing an image anyway)
Ah I hope I don't run into any problems! Have you got a link to your instructions? Otherwise I'll use
but with the g30 image ive downloaded
So my platform tools doesn't include a "flash-all.sh" and the "fastboot flashing unlock" command seems to do nothing except wait for the device. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Just follow Motorolas official guide. It's easy enough for you to understand.
Follow and complain here.
Let ASUS know their bootloader implementation is VERY NOT FRIENDLY to us. I've been modding my Android devices since the Android 2 era and this is the first time I encountered an UNOFFICIALLY UNRECOVERABLE state which is a HORRIBLE experience.
Me? Have played with
Samsung(S5 to S9 and Tab/Odin is a good thing)
XiaomiRedmiPoco(Main device for me today, very modder friendly and robust)
Huawei(Remember when they allow applying for BL unlock?)
Apple(LOL jailbreak from A4 SoC until iPhone X(meantime Samsung S8 looks gorgeous) lost my interest)
And various small brands or exited market big brands(honorable mention Lenovo LePhone C101. My first smart device/Android and received big community support at the good old time)
ASUS. Fix your buggy BL. Fix your policy. Release everything we need to fix OUR DEVICES of OURSELVES. Just ONE step closer to perfect.
Just imagine how stupid is this:
Everytime you want to update you operating system, your UEFI/BIOS firmware might break.
And worse, that you don't have free official resources to fix it?
And can it be worse? Yes! Your Warranty is maybe void because you may unlocked bootloader, now supposedly only ASUS service center have the file to fix it.
Ha now it's interesting. That's the era of ANTITRUST. Even Apple won't do it(Worst case DFU, easily fixable using OFFICIAL iTunes).
WT*?
yeah dude i'm bricked up rn
Paid here, paid there.
Yeah sure.
Exploit people.
Perhaps instead of ranting about asus, you could tell us what you have done exactly to brick your device, and someone might be able to help you ? can you get into fastboot at all?
EDIT: quoted content removed.
Never use this firmware, because it has not been modified, 100% of fingerprints and IMEI will be lost after use. You need to modify the firmware before you can flash it.

1\ The fastboot code in their bootloader have bugs, any CORRECT command you type can easily break bootloader then stuck you in 9008.
2\ The normal update method failed because THEIR UPDATER did do things wrong.
3\ They refuse to provide official ROM to let yourself fix it. SEND IT TO ME TO FIX IT, AND I MIGHT CHARGE YOU SOME.
....\
N\ You go talk to Apple about it because they are experts about saying YOU USED IT WRONG.
Anyone asked for help gets it for free so far.
All devs on my chat group agree at least fastboot flashable should be available on the official download page.
MOD EDIT: off topic content removed

If you can boot into fastboot you can just flash the RAW ROM file available a few days ago. It's not bricked in this case.

Hey all,
My phone has an issue where it's stuck on target IN, but I discovered with the help of retryfail that the target ID is in the param.bin partition. Does anyone have a param.bin they can dump from their phone using EDL or something? This would help me get back to stock.
Thank you,

I'd like the as well if anyone has it for LE2127 TMO c.22 firmware. But if you use a modded msm tool to accommodate the IN TargetID wouldn't the param img get written over and get you back to stock?
If I borrow my wife's phone long enough, I can get it. She has the same LE2127 9 Pro....
Here you go....
if it works, let me know and include the steps you took....please!
Hi all,
In order to use the file, unlock bootloader, then reboot to fastbootd. From fastbootd, run "fastboot flash param param.bin". You will be able to run stock TMO MSM after this. It doesn't really matter what FW version you are on, you can flash it anyway as long as it's a TMO device.

You'll need to generate new unlock token after you flash this, otherwise you won't be able to unlock bootloader.

You successfully got rid of Target is IN with this? How do you check it?

Try to flash regular TMO MSM.

Also, while you're at it, is it possible for you to retrieve persist.img as well? I think mine broke, not allowing for use of FP sensor.
Oh my god. I've been dealing with this stupid indian thing for months, I gave up on trying anymore. No matter what I did , I could never get a normal UNMODDED TMobile msm to run for me.
But I got it now.
Followed the steps above. Unlocked bootloader, went into fastbootd and flashed the param.bin from above, and immediately after that I shut the phone off right from fastbootd mode. Started my TMobile msm tool , plugged it in and we are good!
I'm shocked at how easy of a solution this was, I was trying so many other long drawn out trial and errors and it was truly this easy

I encourage you to make a new How-To thread in this forum with instructions on how to fix the target IN problem. There are a quite a few people who are stuck on IN after using the Indian MSM tool. I saw it being asked a bit in the OnePlus telegram group a few months back too. Good work.
It's one more thing off the list for us to have complete control of our device. Since we have the last "real" OnePlus phone with msm tool, the development on this device may go on for a long, long time
Sorry guys, I pulled my param.bin file because deep inside some settings my wife's name was on my phone. I used her param.bin because it was pure TMO... Personal reasons and security reasons as well... hope y'all understand. and as it is I have now gone with flashing my phone to global...... i actually like it better. Got away from a branded phone!

I'm going to refrain from doing so because it can potentially cause side effects, but if anyone wants to do so, by all means.

At least we know it's possible now. Do you think we need a pure virgin new in box param or do you think there are specifics to the device and that's why he ( @razercortex ) needed persist also? (I was under the impression that persist was device specific)
I also understand your reservations @razercortex, I suppose we can point people here when it comes up, they can read the thread and understand the risks. I'm not stuck on IN but I knew it was possible to undo something the msm package did and I'm glad to see @TheGhost1951 was finally able to undo it. I knew he felt the same way about undoing whatever was done by the IN msm. Maybe someone can piece together a custom repair msm using a virgin param...but maybe I'm getting ahead of myself
