Nope, im using v1.14 now
Is the pie already released?
I am on the same build. Well there is no official international pie but only Chinese and TWRP don't work as I said earlier too that the kernel hasn't been updated to pie. So it creates issues.
So there is no TWRP for pie.

No... What i mean is the root and custom recovery method for global rom 8.1 (oreo) . Not for the pie rom. sorry for the confusion... ?

nevermind guys, already succeed installing twrp on global rom... I dunno what happened, already tried the fastboot devices command and it detected my device nicely, oem unlocking also works. but when to try installing recovery it says :

Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Sending 'recovery' (25401 KB)                      FAILED (remote: 'Requested download size is more than max allowed
')
Finished. Total time: 0.018s
the solution for me was change the usb cable, and also restarting my windows 10. after that it still gave me same messages for 1 or 2 times, and then it works...
Code:
C:\android\platform-tools>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Sending 'recovery' (25401 KB)                      OKAY [  0.607s]
Writing 'recovery'                                 OKAY [  0.018s]
Finished. Total time: 0.645s
Hope this will help anyone that needs it.
Thanks

A question what will you achieve by rooting phone? When there is no custom ROMs
