Unlock / lock Bootloader

I am not responsible for wrong process and people with bad knowledge.
This guide is not for beginners users! Then understand some parts of the alert:

 * [B][COLOR="red"][SIZE="5"]BACKUP YOUR STOCK ROM BEFORE ANY ACTIONS![/SIZE][/COLOR][/B]
 * 
 * Your warranty is now void.
 *
 * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
 * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed.
 * Please do some research if you have any concerns about features 
 * included in this files before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make 
 * these modifications, and if you point the finger at me for messing 
 * up your device, I will laugh at you.

Before any actions:

• copy all that you need from SDcard internal to PC!
  If you want backup calls, messages, contacts (different by goggle contatcs or if you can record all the contacts in your google contacts account directly through the contacts application).
  For backup, use any application from google play! Save in your PC! After all the processes you can restore them using the same application that you used.
• Unlocking Bootloader WILL set warranty flag to "NO". So think for a few minutes if you need it!
  If you have full backup from your phone, BEFORE unlocking, so there is a possibility to restore warranty to "yes".

[*]GUIDE to unlock the bootloader:

1. Download
   - Drivers adb-fastboot (optional)
   - platform
   - Guide file pdf
   
   Enable Developer options on phone: open settings--> "About device"--> click build number 7 times--> go back one screen in Settings
   -->select "System" --> scroll to bottom "Developer options" --> enable "USB debugging" and "OEM unlocking". LOOK in the screen phone about any permission adb!
   
   
2. Now you SHOULD Download Files in Attachment in this post and READ the GUIDE with pictures..........

All thanks to the real developers. If it were not for their efforts, none of this would be possible.

Instructions for flash Stock recovery or Custom recoveries with SPFT:
You have many options like two is better: Use application (ROOT is required) or Use SPFT (knowledge for flash is required - search).
Other way is using adb-fastboot. [GUIDE already have! But upload when it's convenient!]

A very important tip to first step: MAKE NOW BACKUP OF YOUR ROM! ​

ROOT
After TWRP installed and booted is need the Magisk copied on sdcard to install with TWRP!

Search here in xda the files Magisk_vXX.zip​

Without install the ROOT so the stock ROM don't start with TWRP!!

Images of the TWRP are in Attached files.

Update files - Mods & Custom ROMs (GSI)

Update from company

This guide is intended to remove the update file for added security. If there are errors or you need files related to the device.

Download already in DOWNLOADs TAB: How to remove update_s.zip and install - 2019 - BLU G9 - G0130WW.pdf

I will not leave the update_s.zip file because everyone who has the phone can do it alone and learn a little more....

File Modificated

This file has been modified to remove the message from your device when it has the unlocked bootloader.:

Orange state.
Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted.
Your device will boot in 5 seconds.

You may have already blocked the bootloader again. But in custom ROMs (GSI - Project Treble) you might need this file if you want.
Download lk MODs zip and unzip in the plattform tools folder for use adb-fastboot for flashing:

fastboot flash lk lk2_Mod_3.bin

fastboot reboot

File already in DOWNLOADs TAB:

Custom ROMs - GSI

Some custom ROMs (GSI) have been tested on the BLU G9 as you can see in the attacked images. So use A/B image for flash!!
List:

• ResurrectionRemix90_System-190406-arm64-ab-vanilla-nosu
• BootleggersNFound-v4.0-PIE-arm64_AB-20190306
• DotOS-v3.0-arm64_AB-vanilla-20190311

• Pixel-AB-10-20190904-ErfanGSI [very bugs]

  Seeing Generic Android 10-Q starting.......

Some ROMs need modification something to work better in G9 like camera 13MPx & 8MPx..... But need time to do it.

 

[lopestom]

I tested one Gcam version but it's not much different of stock camera in the G9. So I found of Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 here:
Camera_6.1.013.216795316.apk - kokroo, 2018-12-18

Tested others apk:
Google Camera Port Hub
But some apks stopping or start with very issues. So is need get good apk and make a modification for G9.

Hi all,

Has anyone ported the latest google camera app to work in BLU phones? Particular the BLU G9?

Thank you in advance.

Jeff

 

[vineethrp]

This thread would have been very much beneficial and I would have been a lot thankful if the Stock ROM for SP Flashtool was shared. I tried asking BLU support, but they would not share the ROM. Can you please share it?

Will this twrp work for Blu G9 Pro?

I know how to install recovery, custom ROMs, and root but I have no idea how to send stock recoveries. I just received my pro today and unlocked the bootloader. Now I am trying to root it but without twrp or cwm it is a no go ?

 

[DrSliperyFists]

im confused a little, is there actually a twrp already made for the blu g9? or do I have to compile it myself? also is the root method based off of the idea of flashing twrp and then installing root or is there another method of root?

You not see the pictures about TWRP?
That's not good?!

TWRP is not only ROOT. Backup & Restore your own ROM ensures more security than only Rooting with another method!

Have other method?: Try it yourself!

You have a BLU V9?!

Fastboot command:
fastboot getvar all

Maybe need other adb-fastboot tool like adb-fastboot minimal. Maybe drivers adb not installed?
Maybe other way because V9 has Unisoc SC9863A GPU: IMG8322?!

Good luck

Yes thats the command given in the Guide that i Tried to use. I just bought this Blu V9 from best buy but the entire time its connected to my PC its being called a G8? I heard Blu rereleases phones with slight modifications to boost sales so who knows. Do you have one and have you successfully unlocked the bootloader and installed the twrp recovery?

 

[radiophonique]

How does one get the stock recovery from a device without root or custom recovery? I have a G9 Pro but I cannot port twrp without my stock recovery
