Welp, I'm all ears

I would like to remove all the stock apps which really have no reason to be, as the phone is going to be used by my granpa.

Hope I'll get some details from you .

Good day to you all

Hi,

Did you succeed in rooting the phone ?

Reading the thread you seemed to have used a mtk client tool on github.
The command to unlock the bootloader is "mtk da seccfg unlock".

Well then, usually, you need to setup twrp and use it to flash magisk or supersu.
What image did you use for that ? I thought the twrp image would be specific to each phone model ?

There seems to be a "how to root" guide on the github of mtkclient, did you follow that ?

Thank you for your help .

Yes, my device is rooted, but it still has stock recovery.

You can use mtkclient tool to dump "boot.bin", than use magisk manager app to patch "boot.bin", and finnally use mtkclient again to flash empty vbmeta and patched boot.bin file.

Here is a referance video, device model not really matter as long as it has mediatek chipset;

Well I've done it and broke my phone .

"Corrupted image (boot/recovery) prevents the system from booting normally. Please flash the correct image or contact customer service to fix it."

I've followed the video (which kind of follows the instructions for rooting phone on the github anyway), and after this command : "mtk w boot,vbmeta boot.patched,vbmeta.img.empty" and rebooting the phone, this is what I get.

I tried flashing the boot.bin I previously dumped, but same result.

Any idea what I can do ? I'd like to make sure I correctly dumped boot.bin, which size is yours ? Mine is 32 768 KB.

EDIT :
OK, so two things :
- I probably didn't first unlock boot loader, which could explain some things
- mtk tool can only play one command, I need to unplug and replug smartphone each time I want to play a new command. Otherwise it fails. dunno why.

Anyway,
- I formated data as told
- I unlocked phone using the command given
- I rewrote boot with patched one
- I reseted using mtk reset

Sadly, when I start it, it says "orange state, will boot in 5 seconds"
And then it's bootloop .

EDIT 2 : was able to flash back stock boot.bin and get the system to work again. I'm going to retry every step correctly to see if I can get the patched one to work, as I correctly did unlock the boot loader.

EDIT 3 : nope, the problem seems to come from boot.patched. Doesn't boot, it reboots multiples times before halting because "corrupted"...

Hi i am sorry for late response, i am visit xda per 1-2 day

"Sadly, when I start it, it says "orange state, will boot in 5 seconds And then it's bootloop ."

That probably means you have not wiped metada, userdata and md_udc.

Now i think you know what you should do, so i have nothing to say.

Just dont forget to dump original partitions before writing patched one.

Good luck

Hi,

Good to know, does it work for system apps ?

I finally succeeded in rooting yesterday night haha.

The solution is to use the mtkclient tool produced on this github and follow each step of the guide on the github, under "Usage / Root the phone (tested with android 9-12)".

You must absolutely use the magisk App given on this github, the official one won't work, this is what prevented me previously to succeed. This magisk app has been patched for mediatek/realme phones.

Do not omit dumping steps, as it is your only way out if it doesn't work.

Also, for obscure reasons, I was unable to chain commands ; tool wouldn't work this way...
So each time I did and succeeded in doing one "mtk" command on the phone, I unplugged it, launched the next command, pushed vol up and vol down, and replugged it. Maybe I missed something. (note that for the mtk tool to work, phone must be shutdown and then plugged the way I described or that it is described on the guide/tool itself)

Anyway, no guarantee for you here, but hey, it works .

@MrMiyamo were you able to re-lock the bootloader once patched ? So that it doesn't appear "not secured" when booting or at any other time.

Actually i am not go more than that, so my phone also shows "Orange state" text each startup.

But there is few article over internet for removing that text and 5 second countdown though hex edit.

EDIT: removing 5 second countdown not looks possible.

Bro i have the same device (realme c21)

If any method works please share it

I'm not very good at this
So please say step by step
(In a way Noobs like me can follow)

And i think downgrading to Android 10(realme ui 1) and try deep testing app. (It's just my opinion)

Google the remove orange state. Can be done but requires hex editing files

Yes bootloader can be relocked. As per the GitHub page everything is on there except for 1 step which I have asked the Devs to add.

At the bootloader unlocked stage, go straight to fastboot, by holding vol up or down and power and then should have fastboot on screen. Once there do the usual fastboot flashing unlocked command(can't remember exactly. Will update it shortly as about to play around with other options with this phone .

Remember once unlocked it will erase all data no that there will be blnything, so once bootloader unlocked, flash boot and vbmeta and then unplug, hold the vol and power keys and should come up with fastboot on phone, plug USB in, and fastboot command to completely unlock the bl and then you shouldn't have issues. If you having issues just mtk E boot,vbmeta then mtk W boot,vbmeta (dumped stock files (in hoping have done a full phone back up first) ) then try fastboot command then just boot to bootloader and fastboot flash boot and vbmeta
