How To Guide Rooting OnePlus Nord 2 CE lite

[DerDoktore]

...try to turn off your device and start it manually with volume button pressed to boot to fastboot ...I was in the same situation ...you just have to switch the boot slot ...I was scared as hell with the "dangerous message" on screen ...and I have to say, I had to use an USB2.0 port ...on USB3.0 it was not recognized in fastboot mode

how to change boot slot?

 

[DerDoktore]

...get active slot / set active slot ...please refer fastboot manual for details ...best is to read it and after that try rooting your device

best regards

 

[Droid9.9.0.1]

Recovered from HardBrick.

 

[DerDoktore]

...bricking is almost impossible now ...in former times, like HTC Desire, Nexus 7 times, hard bricking was a thing ...today with a second set of partitions and deep fastboot in hardware mode, you can always recover your Brick ...but, really Sir, read before you do stuff with the device ...you will learn a lot about the Android system and it's "specialities"

Best regards

thanks for suggestions, but
- i was not able to turn off the phone - only after battery exhausting -- plug to charger - immediately error screen
- phone was not recognized by any usb 2 or 3.

oh.
By removing the cable and holding both volume buttons( + , - )and power button . All three buttons at a time switches off.

You have to hold all three buttons till switches off and release immediately after it switches off else it reboots to crash message.

After that volume - and power button takes to fastboot mode. Then we have to connect usb cable.

...hello,

first things first: ...you have to unlock your bootloader for get this working ...you will need Magisk and default ADB and fastboot tools ...I won´t get into the bootloader unlocking part or essentials

...I suggest getting "Oxygen Updater" at Google PlayStore and download your FULL rom ...maybe it will complain about the "wrong" version (India/Europe) but I know I´m in Europe and it´s a CPH2409 ...so I got the most recent full update, in my case: CPH2409_11_A.11 ...you have to download the same version as actually installed

...after downloading the File, get the PayLoadDumperGo from XDA Member ssssut and extract the downloaded file ...maybe you will need to add "liblzma-5.dll" to the directory ...I think you will manage it by yourself ...you will only need the "boot.img" and "vbmeta.img"

...copy the boot.img to your phone and patch it with the usual Magisk method (install / choose file) and copy back the resulting magisk_boot.img to your pc.

...now the tricky part ...and yes, I got the "broken Boot/Recovery Image Screen" and yes I was scared for just a few seconds ...but I solved it and here is how:

reboot your Device to fastboot mode (unlocked) and type:

fastboot flash boot .\magisk_boot.img

DO NOT REBOOT NOW!!!

...you will have to flash vbmeta.img like this:

fastboot flash --disable-verity --disable-verification vbmeta .\vbmeta.img

...now it´s time to reboot and when it´s done just start up Magisk Manager and finish the setup and you´re done ...simple as can be

...best regards

...I hope you didn't type the "space" -- disable ...and try updating your Android Toolkit ...do you use Windows or Linux??? ...and you have to watch the "/" or "\" stuff ...or easier said, the "right" path

...best regards

Indeed, old fastboot.exe version
Started the command, ran fine
But now loop in fastboot all the time
It's like 5 years since I root my last phone, I'm scared as hell :-/

...don't worry ...is it fastboot or fastbootd??? I think in both cases (I'm pretty sure you are in fastbootd mode) a slot change will solve your problems ...but be sure to use the right firmware for your device ...flash original boot and vbmeta to get it running again and start fresh ...it calms down your mood a lot, for sure

 

[Antda]

So I changed slot to B, because A was giving all red stuff staying in chinese my phone was dead !
I did all the fastboot again, rebooted, worked

Now it's working, rooted (thank you so much) but when I try to put a APK as system it says the system is full ... not sure if it's normal
Am I supposed to do something with slot A ?

you can find info on rooting the CE2 Lite in the Nord N20 5G sub forum. root process should be exactly the same since its basically the same device. only we still dont have access to Full OTA's so we went a different route
