I prefer the honor 6 port. It has more features especially the LTE only option in network. This ROM doesn't have it

---------- Post added at 08:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:25 AM ----------

There is K-settings with it's features like shortcuts, navbar buttons etc. and it contains some new: matrix size of launcher icons (up to 10x10 i think), matrix size of shortcuts (B571 has 3x3 by default, I really liked the 4x4 like it was on android4), cpu core managmant (disabling cores - i didn't tested). And the built-in huawei apps seemed little bit different than stock B571 (weather, calc, camera ...), so i think some of them was backported from newer EMUI.

PS. has someone skills to rebuild the V6 ROM with magisk?
Can't you use supersu with the rom?

I don't see reason to use LTE only. It is preferred if it is availible, 3G/2G is fallback only. I am 95% of time on LTE.

SuperSU can be used but the su binary (xbin/su) is some old version and every time when rebooted is overwritten even if installed newer binary. And the main disadvantage is that the builtin root is detected by SafetyNet. Now I have stock B571 with magisk and SafetyNet verification is passed.

how to install magisk on a pre-rooted ROM

I downloaded the B571 Kangvip V6 ROM and installed. My findings:

1. The ROM is unlimitedly ROOTed, no Magisk or other root manager, every app that wants can have root access, which I found dangerous
2. It seems it has backported some new features from new EMUI
3. Everything is working and is stable, no crashes or reboots
4. Lots of chinase bloatware, needed to unistall with root privileges (be carefull, one app wich chinese sign in name was keyboard, I accidentally unistalled it and I ended without any keyboard, luckilly I managed to installed google keyboard from play store)
5. there is some unknown app named "radkfz" (or com.kfz.qt) wich is some type of telemetry or malware according google, be sure to uninstall it!

Can someone help me how to unroot the phone and install magisk (point 1)?

PS: if someone want, I can reupload the V6 on mega
As posted by me here https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73582256&postcount=574

If you wanto to unroot and install magisk, try following these steps:
1. Download and save to a convenient location on your device
A. Magisk zip latest version (not beta)
B. Magisk manager apk latest version
C. Osmosis unSU script zip (search on XDA)
D. Boot-jazz.img by Ale95 (search on XDA)
2. Boot in TWRP
3. Make a full nandroid backup
4. Flash in the following order:
- osmosis unSU zip
- boot-jazz.img
- Magisk zip
Magisk should install correctly...
5. wipe cache/dalwik and reboot... Will take 15-20 minutes...
6. Open Magisk manager, probably will show you that Magisk is not installed.
7. Install magisk manager apk as any other app. Now Magisk should work properly and you can root and install modules....
8. Let me know if it worked!

UPDATE:
I was able by some manuals find out that file
Code:
/system/xbin/su
is causing the phone is rooted. So I deleted it via TWRP file explorer, but after rebooting the file is recovered somehow. I discovered the su file is SuperSU binary by command:
Code:
strings /system/xbin/su | grep SuperSU
outputing


So I installed the SuperSU and replaced the su binary with the new version, but It does't help. After every reboot the su binary is replaced by the same older su binary. I can't find out what (some script?) is recovering the su binary. Any ideas?
SU binaries are in boot.img, I believe, that's why you find them back again after reboot. You should flash an unrooted boot image, as described in my previous post...

Still I cannot understand why chinese developers are wasting time with SU... Magisk is the future of rooting and ROM modifications...

These are the challenges i'm having with this ROM. It'll be nice if someone can help
1. I can not get google contact sync to work. I've tried a lot of things, no way.
2. I need a 3G only and 4G only network toggles, like honor 6 port. Network in my area is not so good.

thanks @leonardus_magnus for the rooting tip. Anyway to get english gapps working?

Sorry, I can't help you. I am using a different ROM (almost stock by Chudy_85). I'm done wastin my time with chinese ROMs. Kang_vip rom are stock based anyway with some improvements. The user interface it's always EMUI, therefore I cannot see any reason to use them... Chudy's ROM is simple, clean, and, after installing new magisk following the steps I already posted and uninstalling sony music app, it just works...

It's posted here on XDA... There you go... https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71661066&postcount=47

As usual, read the first post and make a full nandroid backup before proceeding ...

preinstalled magisk is outdated... you have to reinstall magisk following steps I already posted

I found that the preinstalled Sony Music App makes the ROM unstable. Try it, but if you encounter random reboots remove it as you do with chinese bloatware (it's a system app). You can install it later (there is a magisk module for that...)

Let know your opinion...
Ciao,
