[DEV]How to compile TWRP touch recovery

All of TWRP 3.x source is public. You can compile it on your own. This guide isn't going to be a step-by-step, word-for-word type of guide. If you're not familiar with basic Linux commands and/or building in AOSP then you probably won't be...

If you want custom recovery you can make one yourself instead of bothering this person. They risked there device to share how they got basic root. Maybe they may share more work.

Also if you want safety net to work you have to request for magisk hide to add are device fingerprint. Or use a device similar in phone specs. Be careful because things will see your device as the one you pick. Plus things like netflix wont work. A fix for that is download migrate app in playstore. Before root login to your apps and sign in. Open migrate app and save apk+data. Then follow process to restore backup after root .

Success. Thank you for your thread. Maybe we can get a Kernal going. Here's the modules needed. Install props last. Go in terminal run props module. Pick me fingerprint. Xoamoi then select number 30. It's the Xoami mi 3. Yes reboot. Then clear date and catch in both play store apps in settings. Turn magisk hide on in magisk app. Select play store and click all the bubbles not just the one pre enabled. Reboot device. Go in playstore turn off play protect. Now you are hidden.

srry, i do not believe it does. usually you have to change an actual line in the code or commit of the device kernal. I personally do not know how to find out what needs to be changed. they ppl that do and might help. need the kernal source code. I dnt think any one got it yet or shared.Things that hide dnt help. Netflix, some banking apps, online real gambling apps, fingerprint.

Yes it does. It's a pity but rooting well worths it.

My only concern at this point is not having TWRP -_-

I'd like to help on the compilation of TWRP for this device, but even that I'm a developer, I have not the skills in these issues to do it by myself without guidance...

Can someone with the device, with a (re)locked bootloader, please check & confirm, whether the following process works:
1: delete all fingerprints & disable unlocking via fingerprint (remove screenlock altogether or via PIN only)
2: unlock the bootloader via:
Code: 
fastboot oem nubia_unlock NUBIA_NX669J
Please pay attention as this is different from the generic fastboot flashing unlock
3: enable unlock via fingerprint & report if the fingerprint sensor works, else, the issue with calibration persists.

    I've been up 24 hours dealing with bootloops. I finally found a way to root the phone and have it boot up! :ROFLMAO:

    Youtube Video Tutorial:






    For all those websites that claim the RM6 can be rooted with Kingroot, Kingoroot, iRoot, SuperSU... They are MISLEADING you into downloading their software. In other words, they are full of BS and you should INGORE them at all costs as Magisk is the ONLY proper way to root the RM6.



    DO NOT USE KINGROOT, iROOT, KingoROOT, or ANY OTHER THIRD-PARTY ROOTING TOOLS PLEASE!! They steal your DATA and sell it. Magisk does not steal anything.​






    This procedure will require a wipe of your data.. TWICE! I'll explain why.

    When you unlock the bootloader, it wipes your data. Normally you only have to wipe it once, flash the patched boot.img file with magisk, and be done.

    However, it seems that users will need to perform another factory reset after flashing the patched boot image. I have no idea why but it works. Please make a note of this as it will be required or you will be stuck in a bootloop.




    Requirments


    1. Global ROM file
    2. A payload dumper
    3. Magisk APK to patch the boot img
    4. A computer!






    Here are the steps!


    ​
    1. Unlock your bootloader. Make sure you enable OEM unlock in developer options. This WILL WIPE YOUR DEVICE! The command to unlock your bootloader is "fastboot flashing unlock"

    2. Download the global rom from here: https://rom.download.nubia.com/Europe/NX669J/V312/NX669J-update.zip

    3. You will need to download a payload dumper tool. This is due to the firmware being in a .bin file (payload.bin). Follow the link below on how to extract the global firmware:

    How to Extract Android OTA Payload.bin File using Payload Dumper Tool on a PC or Android Device

    The step-by-step guide on how to extract...
    www.thecustomdroid.com www.thecustomdroid.com

    I ended up Downloading Termux from the playstore and extracting it with python on my phone.

    When you get it extracted, just move the boot.img and vbmeta.img files to your Desktop and on your phone :) Place it somewhere on your internal storage where you will remember!

    4. Download     Magisk Manager onto your phone and install it. Select install "patch a file" option and select the boot.img you put on your phone.

    Let magisk patch it. It will end outputting a file like "Magisk_Patchedxxx.img" Go ahead and copy that file to your Desktop.

    5. Go onto your computer and open up command prompt. Change your directory to the Desktop ex. cd c:/Users/Your Name/Desktop

    6. Type fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img

    7. Now make sure you have vbmeta.img on your desktop as well. We need to disable verity on the device. Type fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img

    8. From the bootloader, reboot into your recovery and perform another factory reset!

    9. Reboot the phone and voila! You now have root access!



    Another thing to mention is that SafteyNet does NOT pass even with MagiskHide enabled. Please keep that in mind!


    So far I've installed the Xposed Framework and some Magisk modules. All seems to work really well.

    Happy Modding!

    I does not pass safety net. I've tested every testing app on the Play Store. I'll keep looking for a solution though.

    You're missing the "flash" command inside, as such:
    Code: 
    fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img

    A couple of questions:
    1: does the phone retain full functionality? radio (BT/A2DP/different wifi bands/fingerprint scanner/camera)?
    2: have you tried using an empty vbmeta?

    Everything still works except the fingerprint. When the bootloader is unlocked, the fingerprint stops working.

    As for flashing empty vbmeta images, I have not tried it. I know some devices you may have to flash an empty vbmeta img at last resort but I was able to boot it up using the stock vbmeta.

    Yes usually you just flash stock vbmeta.img via fastboot: fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img --disable-verity --disable-verification should try it out...
