Hello all,

Its been awhile since I've tinkered with an android phone. Could somone tell me whats the best way to go about unlocker the bootloader on my Mate 20 X. I have the EVR-ALOO version. My goal is to root my phone and flash GlobAL00ized on it. If I could get some help in doing so it would be greatly appreciated.

Read this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-20-x/how-to/to-bootloader-unlock-code-t3914558 AFAIK bootloader codes are on lock down and aren't available ATM, so if you don't already have one you're SOL.

At this stage, it's likely someone will need to write a cracker. But given the exodus of developers due to Huawei's recent actions, I guess that is pretty unlikely.

I'm sure there are probably plenty of people in the Chinese community who are capable of this, but it's unlikely to come from there due to potential persecution if Huawei kick up a fuss.

Unfortunately, after the last reboot, I keep my vol up entering eRecovery and I do not load it like in a movie. I have emui 9.1 AL00, will you help?

Is anyone having issues booting unrooted? after recent updates, my device goes straight into booting - no pause and i dont need to hold VOL UP to boot rooted - it does so automatically.

You can get it here https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445 scroll down to Downloads and click Magisk Manager link, you'll download the latest version of apk.

I'm on 9.0.0 200 with Resurrection Remix rom and latest version of Magisk installed, the only way I've been able to boot without root is to boot into TWRP and then reboot from there to System without pressing any buttons (doesn't matter if phone is plugged in or not)

Hi
I'm getting error : FAILED (remote : partition length get error)
See pic below
Plz help
Thanks
Your command is incorrect... read steps in OP very carefully. If your image file is named recovery_ramdisk2.img as it's seen in your image then you have to use this command:

fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery_ramdisk2.img

Two questions:

I just finally bought a Mate 20X (International version).. super stocked :) At this point, where is the best place and easiest way to get an unlock code purchased to root the phone? And, I hear about a new firmare, EMUI 9.1. Anyone knows of it will brake root?

Thanks a lot for the advice :)

There's no way you can get a code at this moment... All the community want codes, but Huawei did not provide them at the moment... Cheers

When the codes we're still available... read the topics please , you gonna understand what i mean...
I appreciate your reply.

My question arises only from the fact that, trying to do extensive and accurate research on this, I am faced with reading on other threads about the unlock codes, that there are statements and claims and links to other threads and solutions all over the place.. that some vendors provide the service, other vendors don't provide the service, others say they provider service today, then the next day they don't anymore, some people say it works, some people say it does not work.. so it's extremely difficult to actually have any kind of a clear picture or what's going on..

I'm also very confused : don't you get the phone rooted with the process described in the first post? What's the purpose of the codes then? Also do you have maybe Stock Recovery Ramdisk for EVR-N29 available somewhere? It's the new 5G variant of the phone...

Thanks in advance, tent:wq

It works always, but it's hard to find a man seller on the site that would have access to the codes. If they do, sales will continue until Huawei blocks access to the codes. Sometimes a few days sometimes longer. Nobody will predict it. If it appears, you have to buy it immediately and count that you get the code.
