Successfully Flashed TWRP

[souljasteve84]

I managed to flash TWRP on my mate 20 pro ( LYA-L09 ) but im positive it will work on all variants.
you must have bootloader unlocked. this will format your USERDATA so please be aware of this.

here is the following instructions to how i did it:

1. flash the twrp.img in fastboot - using command - fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrp.img once successful move to step two.

2. you need to format user data so that twrp to boot properly use the following command - fastboot erase userdata
once the erase userdata is complete, type in fastboot reboot and press enter.

3. you can now boot into twrp once in twrp you have to go to wipe and wipe data, please note this will take a very long time to wipe data so please be patient, it can take up to 1 hour or more, maybe less. so do it when you dont need to use your phone for a fair while. once the data has been wiped successfully through twrp, reboot back into twrp, wipe cache and then reboot back into twrp again. once booted back into twrp you are free to flash supersu or magisk

the link to twrp in my google drive is this - https://drive.google.com/open?id=1PitrcNjMMynbWXP5jGfeNUqKdt5hJpfN

Also please only do this if you know what you are doing. twrp is working for me with no problems and i have made a back up so i can revert back to it if anything goes wrong. so i suggest you make a backup before proceeding with rooting etc.

I typed it up quickly as I had to go out to dinner sorry will edit post with right command

Do you know if flashing magisk still passes safety net?

 

[mrrib]

Can anyone give me a oeminfo for LYA-L29c432 ?

I patched the TWRP with the magisk canary fix for root, but didn't have the chance to try if it works. I flashed the TWRP but didn't do the format stuff as I'm on holiday.

Same here, but when you boot with cable plug in and hold vol + then press format type yes, press format it will reboot to twrp and you can use the format stuff

sorry for my bad english

U modified the TWRP from the first post with the magisk canary? When I flashed the modified version and boot into TWRP directly after flashing, I stuck at TWRP bootlogo.

Can u give me an advice?
Can u attach your modified TWRP? Do u have single or dualsim?

 

[mrrib]

after flash twrp
fastboot erase userdata
then no stuck on boot

i have dual sim, you can send me a pm there can we talk german.

And then u just flashed magisk from TWRP? The 18.0? Or using the modified TWRP?

TWRP i have no patch.

Here a patchet boot (Magisk) flash with
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk patched_boot.img
unplug cabel and boot with hold vol +
then you can install Magisk and you have root acess!

Hope this helps.

Would it be possible to use this on lya-l09?

3. you can now boot into twrp once in twrp you have to go to wipe and wipe data

My phone fails to mount the partitions when I swipe to wipe data any ideas?

Try wiping internal storage instead and then rebooting to recovery

I just ended up patching the stock recovery image and booting from that instead TWRP isnt really a big deal to me if theres no roms to flash with it yet. Thanks anyway though.
