[RECOVERY][Unofficial][TWRP 3.2.1-0][Notch Friendly] P20 Lite Edition

Don't use WIPE the data partition

 * Your warranty is now void.
 * I am not responsible for bricked devices.
 * ATTENTION: YOU are choosing to install this recovery at your own risk.
 * I do not take responsibility for any problems with your device.

Features:
- This recovery is based on the TWRP from Pretoriano80
- Notch-friendly; due to notch-design I re-positioned the clock, now it is visible all the time
- I added the possibility to do a full device backup, thanks to Sudeep Duhoon

Installation:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk TWRP_3.2.1-0_ANE-LX1_Full_01.img
fastboot reboot

*Note many devices will replace your custom recovery automatically during first boot.
To prevent this, after typing fastboot reboot, remove the USB cable and hold the Vol+ key and boot to TWRP.
Once TWRP is booted, TWRP will patch the stock ROM to prevent the stock ROM from replacing TWRP.
If you don't follow this step, you will have to repeat the install.

Note: No sources available due to minor changes on the Pretoriano80's TWRP

I can't do it. My current phone is P20 Pro.

Btw in my case in EMUI 9.0 I don't use TWRP, to have root the Magisk patch stock recovery_ramdisk image. After boot into recovery Magisk does the magic an phone restart with root.

Not sure how it will be in EMUI 9.1 but should be something identical.

Not really the proper thread but anyway was able anynody successfully root the ANE-LX1 stock EMUI9 ?

For me the method below does NOT work :(
0. Unlocked bootloader - obviously.
1. Extract recovery_ramdisk from official EMUI9 image and copy it to device.
2. Install Magisk app and patch the copied image.
3. Download patched image from device to laptop.
4. Reboot device to bootloader and flash image using fastboot.
5. Reboot to patched recovery to activate root => this part doesn't work :(

Anybody has the same problem and/or solution?

All your steps are correct according EMUI9 maybe in the EMUI9.1 you need do something extra!!!

In order to boot with Magisk, you have to always reboot to recovery (press volume up while booting)
or using ADB
adb reboot recovery

Hello

When I press volume up too long, it reboots to eRecovery, which is different than normal recovery.

I also tried "adb reboot recovery" where the device will stuck at booting and nothing happens.

bigest mistake are "USB still conected" , you never will be able to boot in recovery, if usb are conected, disconect it

Test only if the one patched by you got a different checksum.

I have the same checksum.

Another info: Using adb reboot recovery I am able to boot to recovery, even when the recovey itself does not appear, just the previous screen is showing with the message "Your device is booting now".
But I am able to enter into shell using adb shell and even the su command works.
So the recovery image is patched, but the root functionality is only accessible in recovery mode.

Just a question: is this a 3.3.x based TWRP (so that it can be flahsed/installed in ramdisk_recovery) or are we talking here about magisk?

I formyself got magisk working on the current Firmware, however I'm more interested in a more slim GSI (but I'm currently stucked with MagiskHide - it always leads to a bootloop and I do not know why...)

Best regards,
Peter

If your firmware is EMUI9.1, then can u pls describe the exact steps how did you make Magisk working on it?


At first, follow the steps from Magisk Install:
1) Download a current FullOTA Firmware
2) deflate UPDATE.APP
3) Extract RECOVERY_RAMDIS.img (Using Huawei Image Extractor)
4a) Install Magsik-App
adb install MagiskManager-v7.3.2.apk
4b) Push Recovery to device
adb push RECOVERY_RAMDIS.img /sdcard/Download
4c) Let Magisk patch Recovery (Start MagisManager on device Install → Install → Select and Patch a File)
4d) Pull patched recovery from device
adb pull /sdcard/Download/magisk_patched.img
5) Restart device with VOL- and Power, Install this image to RECOVERY_RAMDISK
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery_ramdisk_patched.img
6) Now you can either do fastboot reboot, pull out the cord and push volup+power or do it slowly:
fastboot reboot
adb reboot recovery
7) Start Magsik, push install to set up some necesarry stuff reboot

Take care: you'll always have to reboot using recovery
From Magsik-Doc in GitHub:
In summary, after installing Magisk:

(Powering up normally) → (System with NO Magisk)
(OEM Recovery Key Combo) → (Splash screen) → (Release all buttons) → (System with Magisk)
(OEM Recovery Key Combo) → (Splash screen) → (Keep pressing volume up) → (Actual recovery)


Some thinks I've noticed:
First of all, I was not able to enter the recovery (but this may be concerned as I almost always have connect the usb for now)
Taht's the reason, I was not able to reset/wipe the device (as eRecovery uses the normal recovery to wipe the device).
Don't panic: just reflash the original RECOVERY_RAMDIS.img and do everyhting nesessary.

Good luck,
Peter

Exactly the same I noticed. Plus when I do the following:
1. fastboot reboot
2. quickly unplug usb cable
3. Vol+ and Power combo
the Magsik activation doesn't work and system does not boot into recovery.

When I release Vol+ and Power keys at splash/boot screen, the system starts normally, i. e. without Magisk. When I hold Vol+, system boots into eRecovery.
In other words I am not able to start system with Magisk. Maybe I am doing something wrong but it simply does not work.

I think I'll give up and go back to EMUI8 where Magisk/root works without problems.

i had the same and was at the same breaking point ,.. with the guide above just do that :
5) Restart device with VOL- and Power, Install this image to RECOVERY_RAMDISK
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery_ramdisk_patched.img
6) do fastboot reboot, dont pull out the cable start the phone, then adb reboot recovery, wait for the start dont do anything
7) Start Magsik

    download link is broken
    can anyone share the recovery file
    This is an outdated version...

    Look here

    Will this recovery and future custom ROMs be compatible with ane-lx3?
    This recovery should be compatible with ANE-LX3.
    I don't have an answer in short term if this recovery will be compatible with custom ROMs but I'm work on it.

    Hi, is it possible to install this recovery in a completely stock unit without USB debugging enabled? Thanks!
    Hi, USB debugging has nothing to do with this process, to flash TWRP the bootloader must be unlocked.
