Question X80 pro BootLoader unlock

[lilddd]

a) install userdebug gsi (phh, los, leos etc) with dsu sideloader apk from github

or

b) take any recovery for your phone and change prop values for adb root in recovery

ro.secure=0
ro.adb.secure=0
security.perf_harden=0
ro.debuggable=1
persist.sys.usb.config=adb,mtp

boot into gsi or recovery

adb root
adb pull /dev/block/by-name/boot

this method has problem

change rhe prop of reocovery.img

EX)
chaning prop 12.0.14.4 recovery.img and flash to 12.0.14.5 device is working fine.

but when I flash to 12.0.16.6 device
with same 12.0.14.4 recovery.img

it has bricked.

So I flashed original recovery.img of
12.0.14.4

it is bricked status

So I send china, get mainboard change.

I guess if we want to get boot.img from flashing recovery.img

middle version (14. / 15. / 16. ) is important.

not booting into fastboot?

 

[lilddd]

not booting into fastboot?

after flashing
it stucks in Fastboot mode
after I go to main UI, It stucks in VIVO logo

well, you have unlocked BL and working fastboot, right?

 

[lilddd]

Yes enter to fastboot and bootloader is all fine
just can not go to recovery or Main UI

so I sent china and get repaired.

in this case what can we do?

we are using this method (changing prop of recovery.img) because we can't find newest firmware at all place.

so we can not flash current version's recovery.img
to replace all images of original current version

PLS give us the method to solve

If same problem has come again, we have to send china again

1) start downloading of ota update, wait for some time, then

mount /bin /data/vivo-updater
it's should prevent system from checking ota.zip (but shouldn't stop download), otaupdate will be hidden - no file - no reboot

umount /data/vivo-updater

then copy
(this method most likely will work, I'm not 100% shure)

2) right after download you can try

su -c setprop ctl.restart zygote

from pc or whatever

(warm reboot should also prevent ota.zip check)

3) alternative should be pressing vol+ when phone reboots, so you will be booted into fastboot

then

fastboot erase misc

(misc partition contains commands for installing update after reboot)

I don't know what it is (I don't own x80), but you should be able to boot in recovery with right vbmeta

You tried to boot in recovery 12.0.14.4, but you had vbmeta for 12.0.16.6

Flashing right vbmeta should have helped you, also you could try to flash vbmeta with flags disable-verification disable-verity

ps. having unlocked BL and working fastboot means that your device isn't bricked (in most of the cases)

 

[Pervokur]

tested->>>

mount /bin /data/vivo-updater

this prevents reboot and installation on my vivo y31

umount /data/vivo-updater

then copy ota update

 

[QTeknology]

No. there is no person that try to flash global rom

and some amazing man try to flash
X70 pro+ CN -> GLOBAL
his device had hardbrick.

PLS do not try to flash

if MR. pervokur will know

Global Rom over CN absolutely can't be done via Recovery.
Mandatory is to not flash Modem files, the phone will break and brick.

A Global Rom over CN can be done editing the Chinese System image using the Global system files...
reconstruct the system.img creating a sort of Frankestein System... and then flashing It to deceive the system.

I followed the same steps and it worked for me. I was able to easily unlock the bootloader and also root with magisk. But I recently upgraded to Android 13 and since then for some reason the patch methof of magisk is not working,

 

[cheth99099]

a) install userdebug gsi (phh, los, leos etc) with dsu sideloader apk from github

or

b) take any recovery for your phone and change prop values for adb root in recovery

ro.secure=0
ro.adb.secure=0

adb root
adb pull /dev/block/by-name/boot

Hello Pervokur,

I read a few of your posts on x80 pro site and see that you are an expert. Kindly help.
I had earlier rooted my x80 pro using magisk patch method on android 12.

But updated to Android 13 yesterday and since then I am unable to root using patch method. It gets stuck at Vivo boot animation. Kindly help!!

I have tried the following
downloading the firmware from the site
Extracting the boot.img file from zip
Patch using the latest canary magisk version
fastboot flash the magiskboot image.

Should I be formatting the mobile after A13?
Will just uninstalling the magisk apk disable the magisk modules to see if the modules are causing it to bootloop?
Should I try disable verity? If yes, please help me with the command for the same
Will formatting help? I wish it can be fixed without formatting

Please advise.

you just need to read. properly - the bug was fixed you can only unlock bootloader/rooting after downgrading to the original firmware (if that's still possible). It's the same for all Vivo devices - no unlock/root on Android 13 or Android 12 I think Ater September (maybe another month)

rollback should be possible with uid1000 debuggable app com.vivo.vtool (if you can install it).

So right now I'm rooted/bl unlocked on A13 beta. If I update to the latest A13 stable, I can't re-root device? Will bl re-lock?

 

[Washo4evr]

when I went from a12 to a13, my BL remained unlocked
I was able to extract the 6.8GB update file and patch the boot.img then flash it to my freshly installed a13 and now phone is running a13 + root + LSposed

I thought it would remain. Are you running the newest A13 stable funtouch os?

I have a w10 variant, running 13.1.11.12
