Is there a step by step tutorial on how to root US version of ROG2? - ASUS ROG Phone II Questions & Answers

Any thread that shows how to update to latest firmware and have root on WW rom or US version?

I know I have to patch the boot img through magisk. But how can I get the boot img? I have the US version and my build number is different from everything listed on ASUS website.

I don't see that firmware on the Asus site, maybe it never auto updated on initial setup. I rooted on 1907.33 firmware so maybe try updating to that then root.
1. Download firmware WW-16.0622.1907.33 from Asus to the root of your phone (take it out of download folder and put directly in internal memory no folder)
2. Reboot the phone, upon reboot you will be asked to install the updated firmware. Install and reboot.
To root;
3. Sign out of google account
4. Download and install Asus bootloader unlocker apk HERE
(this will wipe your device so backup anything you need on the phone first. Also the phone may boot twice DO NOT press power button to pause the boot process)
5. Now your bootloader is unlocked and 1907.33 firmware installed you can follow this guide to root the device. (since you are on 1907.33 start at step 4. Only do steps 4-7 in this guide)
To udate to latest firmware;
6. Delete the previous firmware 1907.33 you just downloaded on internal memory. Download the new WW-16.0631.1908.12 and put it in internal memory no folder.
7. Follow this guide HERE

need help updating to 4.3

so i'm trying to flash a new rom on my device using the methods in this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2608129
i've unlocked the device successfully and i'm trying to flash CWM 6.0.4.7 on it via instructions here:
http://droidbasement.com/db-blog/?p=3260
but the instructions state: "-You must be on 10.26.1.18 bootloader (updating to ASUS’s latest 4.3 release will install this). It is best to update to this build (10.26.1.18) via MicroSD update method (as outlined on ASUS’s site) as some users have reported that it doesn’t get installed via OTA."
i downloaded the correct file from the asus website, inserted my SdCard, transfered it to the tablet and unziped it in the root directory of the SD then rebooted.
it's not updating the tablet at all. what am i doing wrong?
here is my build number: JDQ39.US_epad-10.14.1.44-20131002
here is the file i downloaded from asus: US_epaduser_10_26_1_18_UpdateLauncher
sorry issues is fixed can't delete this message.
i didnt realize the tablet needs to be on when you insert the MicroSD, I had it off.

Won't boot

Went to recovery, tried wiping cache, after about an hour I thought it was just frozen and not doing anything, so I restarted the phone, then went back into recovery and factory reset. Now the M logo appears for a few seconds, then disappears, but the screen buttons are unresponsive. At this point, the only thing I can do is hold the power button and the M screen will come back up, OR I can get into fastboot and everything acts normal until I try rebooting. I've wiped cache and factory reset several more times and the same problem keeps persisting.
Any tips?
Thanx

It's entirely possible you are having some kind of hardware failure, but as we can't help you fix that let's focus on software for now.
Is your bootloader unlocked and do you have TWRP recovery? If you have TWRP, have you tried to restore any backups of your system?
Have you tried reflashing firmware, either lastest stock via ADB or custom ROM? (choice depending on whether your bootloader is unlocked or not)
bootloader is locked, everything is stock.

do you have TWRP installed? If so, do you have a backup you can restore?
If not, then reflash latest firmware (either via TWRP or via ADB).

TWRP is not installed. Is there a guide somewhere how to reflash? Everything I have found is for a normally working phone.

Edit 1: Read faster than I was understanding. Trying it now.
Edit 2: Didn't understand how to flash the one you linked, so I used the one supplied in the guide and flashed everything. Still getting the same issue though.

whoa, I somehow mis-read this. Your bootloader is locked? Do you want to unlock your bootloader? If so, if you do not have the latest firmware, then don't flash the latest firmware. Ignore my last post.
However, if you are already on the latest firmware, then you can't unlock your bootloader anyway, so you might as well re-flash that firmware to fix whatever is corrupted.

I read too fast also. I thought your bootloader was UNlocked and you were still stock.
What firmware were you on before you had this trouble?
If you were on the very latest already, then you can't flash that firmware in that thread -- because you can't downgrade with a locked bootloader. You can only flash same version or higher.
I assume I was on the latest, at least I know I didn't have any pending OTA's
Sorry for being a bit ignorant on this, I told myself with this one I was just going to leave everything alone and not unlock or do anything like I did on all my others.

OK, let's assume you were on the latest already.
With these instructions below, on step 4 instead of the link he provides you would use the link I provided (which is the very latest firmware). @TheSt33v's goal for this thread is to unlock the bootloader -- and these instructions were originally intended to get users with older firmware to upgrade and install the very last version firmware that could be unlocked with Sunshine. We are re-purposing the instructions to get you to re-flash the latest firmware on your phone, hoping that will fix any corruption issue.
TheSt33v said:
Section 0: Installing Firmware Version MCG24.251-5 (instead you would be installing Official Stock Firmware 6.0.1 MCG24.251-5-5. Note the extra "5" on the end. It's the very latest stock firmware, but cannot be unlocked as of this date by Sunshine.)
1. Go to Settings -> About phone -> Build number. If it says SU4TL-44, SU4TL-49 or MCG24.251-5, skip to section 1 of this guide. If it says MCG24.251-5-5, you are probably out of luck. This guide will not work for you. If it says anything else, continue reading.
Flashing MCG24.251-5 using this method will erase all of your data. Back up any important files/information before proceeding.
2. Download and install Minimal ADB and Fastboot from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790.
3. Download and install the Motorola Device Manager from here: https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/88481
4. Download the MCG24.251-5 firmware package from here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=889764386195901169
(instead download THIS VERSION: Official Stock Firmware 6.0.1 MCG24.251-5-5)
5. Extract the contents of the MCG24.251-5 firmware package to the installation directory of Minimal ADB and Fastboot (C:\Program Files (x86)\Minimal ADB and Fastboot on any 64-bit installation of Windows). (INSTEAD you would extract the firmware version I linked to.)
6. Power off your phone.
7. Hold down the volume down button and power on your phone. Release the volume down button when you see that the phone has booted into bootloader mode. You'll see a dead green android.
8. Plug the phone into your computer.
9. Open the Minimal ADB and Fastboot shortcut on your desktop. This will open a command prompt.
10. Type "fastboot devices" and press enter. If it displays your device's serial number, you're ready to go. If it displays nothing, your computer is not recognizing your device properly.
11. Navigate to the installation directory of Minimal ADB and Fastboot and double click on FlashAll.bat. This will flash MCG24.251-5 to your device and erase all of your data. (This will instead install MCG24.251-5-5 if you downloaded that version, but yes it will erase all your data.)
12. Use the power button to select Start in the bootloader menu to boot normally.
13. Set up your phone at least to the point where you can install apps if you want to.

The blue link you provided in that post doesn't work. Assuming it's the same that you provided a few posts earlier, there is no flashall.bat file.

I fixed the download link, so should work now.
As for the bat.file, I don't know.
I searched and found some more download versions, like this:
https://easy-firmware.com/index.php?a=browse&b=file-info&id=80611
Sweet Sassafrass, it works! I simply copied the .bat file from the -5 zip to the -5-5 (newest FW) took almost 5 minutes on the Droid splash screen, but it's alive. Thank you so much @ChazzMatt for all your help.

How to update firmware with TWRP installed?

So I unlocked my bootloader and installed TWRP on the p20pro. Just received status that there's full update available. I downloaded and try to install, but the phone would boot into recovery and nothing happens. How should I go about updating the firmware on the device with TWRP?

Either reflash the stock recovery or keep TWRP and use HuRUpdater Tool (search for it here on XDA)

Hi.Same issue. Does reflash stock recover wipe all my datas ?
How to use HuruUpdater as ther current TWRP does not allow to access on local files (no decryption).
THanks
JP
here's the details
- Unlock bootloader from Huawei : http://emui.huawei.com/en/plugin/unlock/index
- (It's still possible to unlock the bootloader. Just send an email to your local support or tweet them (HuaweiUK). They'll ask you for some info and send you the unlock code. Took me two days to get the code)
- TWRP : https://forum.xda-developers.com/hua...2-1-0-t3779400
- hurupdater_0.3.zip https://forum.xda-developers.com/hon...overy-t3769279 also works perfectly for P20 Pro
Magisk file (if you want to get rooted) https://******************/Magisk/Magisk-v16.0.zip
Now, get patient, an old man did it!
In future direct links for our CLT-L29 european(C432)..
http://pro-teammt.ru/firmware-databa...irmware_page=0
Click on FullOTA-MF (only!) and click on filelist I had to click several times on filelist to get the links to the 3.zip files needed (thinks to Tecalote for his patience!)
So, the difficult part was to rename the.zip files( I went to #32, page 4 and renamed exactly like it was : Download firmware files (for official firmware use Huawei Firmware Finder).
1. Put files you want to flash in a seperate folder on sdcard.
Supported zip files to flash are (name must match):
o update.zip (use FullOTA file)
o update_full_hw.zip
o update_data_full_public.zip
2. Optional: Put recovery.img (rename your TWRP downloaded "recovery_ramdisk twrp_clt_0.1.img") in same folder if you want to keep custom recovery.
3. Put HuRUpdater zip in same folder. Example:
4. Select only HuRUpdater to flash in custom recovery.
5. Follow instructions on screen. Flashing can take multiple minutes.
Then I followed exactly step by step.
It didn’t work and I had error messages flashing with hurupdater_0.3.zip:
No update_data_public.zip found in /sdcard/”name of your folder”
No update_all_hw.zip in /sdcard/”name of your folder”
As you can see the name of the .zip files did’nt match #32.
I renamed exactly as asked to get rid of the error messages, and BINGO!

Update CLT-L29 8.1.0.128(C432) with TWRP already installed
Update CLT-L29 8.1.0.128(C432) with TWRP already installed
Hello,
Many thanks to all of your for your kind support , so I intend to create a summary of what I did, hoping it could help others !
I had already unlock previsouly my Bootloader (of course, else this topic would not exist) via Unlock bootloader from Huawei :https://emui.huawei.com/en/unlock_detail
I already had TWRP and Magisk installed and wanted to get the latest official firmware for my P20-PRO-CLT-L29(C432) - > CLT-L29 8.1.0.128(C432).
When intending to update (from my phone), it could not work (I allways boot back to TWRP), upgrade failed.

Start with : Do your Backup !
Removed then all security (screen unlock in developper mode =0) , no pin, no pattern, no password, no fingerprint, no faceunlock
Download the following set of files (that I've uploaded and ready to use) : https://mega.nz/#F!pEpRDB7R!pmPDjlqgtdHTs39gyLdJhg
(nota : my upload is quite slow, so please wait some hours before it is available)
It contains : HuRUpdater_0.3.zip, Magisk-v16.4-Beta.zip, twrp_clt_0.1.img, recovery.img
, update.zip, update_all_hw.zip, update_data_public.zip
- On your phone create a folder including all files from the package above.
- Boot in TWRP
- Install : HuRUpdater zip from the folder where you had put all files (no issue with decryption, at least in my case)
Nota : I had almost an heart attack during installation as it did a reference to CLT-09... not CLT-29 but it works and this despite some strange error messages.
When achieved : wipe/cache dalvik.
Phone will reboot and optimize the apps.
In my case, I lost my root access and TWRP, so I've done it again, but normally it was supposed to stay when using HurUpdater
Install TWRP (again if needed) :
- Start your device in fastboot mode
- Install the recovery using the following command : fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrp_clt_0.1.img
Restart with this command: fastboot reboot
Important : As soon as you execute the restart command,remove the USB cable and keep pressing Volume UP, so the device will boot to TWRP. This is to avoid that the device boot to OS,overwritting TWRP recovery.
Reboot again in recovery
(re)Install : Magisk-v16.4-Beta.zip
Have fun,
JPh

THANK YOU! THIS WORKED SO PERFECTLY!
Until now, I tried the following:
Back up my data and apps to SD card with EMUI Backup App
Download OTA update (it first downloads the incremental ~100-200MB update) and click install
This doesn't work of course - TWRP tries to execute the update command but dies with error messages
Reboot, try downloading/installing updates again, the downloader then downloads the -FULL update
Extract recovery.img from update.zip>update.app
Flash stock recovery over TWRP
Initiate update again from Update App (System Settings)
Update runs smoothly, but bootloader is locked again afterwards
Restore from backup, flash TWRP again, flash SuperSU again
BUT THIS IS MARVELOUS! I will only lose SuperSU and Xposed, and given that HuRUpdater is provided with the correct filenames including TWRP renamed to recovery.img, I will just have to install SuperSU and Xposed again after updating the firmware.
It worked flawlessly with the stock firmware files from update.hicloud.com, and you'll usually find all the links a few hours after the release somewhere on the internet.

I have a few questions regarding this method to update :
Do I need to make a new backup using twrp after this update since the system files changed due to the update? (correct if i'm wrong i'm a previous iphone owner this my first android device)
Is the any method to force update 8.0 even it will erase every thing and after that just flash twrp and restore backup (i think all the methods mentioned are complicated for me)

Hi, I have the same problem but with my Huawei P10Lite WAS L1XA with firmware oreo installed from the phone and on reboot enters twrp mode.

[ROM] TMO Z2 Force 27.1.3 FlashAll (October 2018 Version)

UPDATE 11-9-18: I have updated the FlashAll with the October edition of version 27.1.3. Yes, they updated the ROM but kept the same version number lol.
This is a TMO Z2 Force 27.1.3 FlashAll. It does not wipe user data. I created it because the OTA update wouldn't complete, I think because I am rooted. Anyway I took the OTA from https://mirrors.lolinet.com (thank you!), unzipped it, used root junky's script to convert it (thank you!) and made a batch file to flash the partitions. The flashall includes ADB and Fastboot also. The Flashall is for windows. Your bootloader needs to be unlocked. You need to be on an OREO rom already.
Disclaimer: Flash at your own risk. Not responsible for damages if this stuff goes south. If you don't know what a flashall is, or twrp, or fastboot, you may not be ready for this.
Downloads
1. Updated October Flashall https://drive.google.com/open?id=1PczvmaVv19c91iOGhpNmhmfKyvDkz-ob (download to your computer)
2. TWRP Installer (if you are rooted, download this to your phone) https://dl.twrp.me/nash/
3. Magisk (if you are rooted, download this to your phone) https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk
How To:
Unzip the Flashall into a folder called "TMO Moto z2 force 27.1.3 flashall" Open a command prompt in the folder it created. Connect your phone to your computer via ADB.
Not Rooted?
If you are NOT rooted, just run flashall.bat. It will automatically boot into fastboot mode, update the partitions, reboot, and profit. This does not wipe user data.
Rooted
If you are rooted:
1) run flashall_then_recovery.bat. It will automatically boot into fastboot mode, update the partitions, then automatically reboot into a temp twrp recovery.
2) In TWRP install the twrp installer you downloaded above (if you use recovery).
3) Reboot recovery
4) Install magisk that you downloaded above.
5) Reboot
Not Rooted and want to wipe everything?
Run flashall_erase.bat. It will boot into fastboot mode, update the partitions, and wipe everything.

1. Flashall https://drive.google.com/file/d/1JKu5S7xvy8xvyCodLEt7olr8czP_8FUm/view?usp=drivesdk (download to your computer)
2. TWRP Installer (if you are rooted, download this to your phone) https://dl.twrp.me/nash/
3. Magisk (if you are rooted, download this to your phone) https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk
How To:
Unzip the Flashall. It will create a folder called "NASH_TMO_27.1.3" Open a command prompt in the folder it created.
Not Rooted?
If you are NOT rooted, just run flashall.bat. It will automatically boot into fastboot mode, update the partitions, reboot, and profit.
Rooted
If you are rooted:
1) run flashall_then_recovery.bat. It will automatically boot into fastboot mode, update the partitions, then automatically reboot into a temp twrp recovery.
2) In TWRP install the twrp installer you downloaded above
3) Reboot recovery
4) Install magisk that you downloaded above.
5) Reboot

I downloaded and unzipped the new NASH_TMO_27.1..3. I added the AdbWinApi.dll and AdbWinUsbApi.dll and got the flashall_then_recovery.bat to run. I didn't install the TWRP installer or Magisk but rebooted to recovery and then system. After several restarts due to unlocked bootloader warning, it came back to build number OCXS27.1.2 kernel [email protected]#1 Fri Apr 20 09:21:27 CDT 2018. Android security level May 1, 2018.

the "flashal link" contains only TWRP3.1.zip with boot.img and META-INF folder. it doesn't contain a flashall_then_recovery.bat nor NASH_TMO_27.1.3.

So try it again but this time just do the regular flashall.bat. it should work this time.
It sounds like you are installing this to slot a but your phone is running in slot b. If doing it this way doesn't fix it just look on here for the command to switch your phone from one slot to another.
success. I tried the flashall.bat and got the system updated to 27.1.3. I noticed that when I fastboot --set-active=_a, I had 27.1.2 and with --set-active=_b, I had to restart the phone because it was stuck at the unlocked bootloader warning. thanks.

My Fellow Texan.....
THANK YOU.
My phone has been in a weird limbo for months. I was on AOSIP ROM but it wasn't rooted, I couldn't use any moto mods and I couldn't install anything because TWRP wasn't installed and it wouldn't let me install it, either. I now have TWRP, but it's showing no baseband. So I'm gonna attempt to fix that but I'm already in a better place than I was. Thanks again, brother.
if you need baseband its easy to fix i had the same issues i was testing kernel its eas fix if you need i can help fix ive bricked and tried everything works easy check last post put on this https://forum.xda-developers.com/z2-force/development/pantheon-kernel-alpha-t3805977
My Tmo box is rooted, presently running the original 27.1 release.. I've been getting the OTA update notifications for 27.1.2.
Do we know if I can skip 27.1.2 and jump straight to the 27.1.3 release? I'd love to be able to do this flash-all and put the update notifications to bed for a while.

If you are on tmobile, flashing the firmware flashall from the aosip thread to get baseband back.

If that doesn't work let me know. It should though. You may have to re-root after his suggestion
I'd been avoiding updates because I just didn't want to deal with rooting again and restoring data, etc. This was great!
(bootloader) slot: not found this is what I get with every fastboot command.
I was having the same issue... I was on 27.1.2 and kept getting notified to update, but it kept failing. I'm rooting with Magisk (16.0 initially but then up to 17.1) and it wouldn't update. Thanks to this thread, I ran the flashall_then_recovery.bat and it worked a treat!!! Thank you TexasAggie!
TWRP Installer link is down
The link to the TWRP installer is timing out when loading and comes up with an error message. Is it possible to install the 27.3 update using adb and then flash magisk in the temp twrp? Thanks for your work bro!
UPDATE:
I tried and now I'm stuck in bootloop. I can still get to twrp using adb and did a wipe but it's still stuck in loop land. Do I need to be rebooting in TWRP from slot A or B? This is my first phone that has dual partitions and I am a bit confused by it. Any suggestions? THANK YOU!!
UPDATE:
Tried your flashall update a second time and it worked with no bootloop issue, was able to flash magisk and obtain root again too.

[Galazy Z Fold2 F916U/U1_Snapdragon]-[Upgrade Easily Firmware Using Odin]-[Automatically Root Remove Forceencrypt Patch Bluetooth And Fix Safetynet]

Must Have An Unlocked Bootloader To Do This!
This An odin tar file I have created to flash along with stock odin firmware to automatically install TWRP recovery along with Disable VBMETA image. The tar file will also automatically install magislk root along with remove force encryption and patch bluetooth library file. It will also patch safetynet. No flashing of zips is required
Info For Bootloader Unlocks Can Be Found In Post 2
I Do Not Recommend Mixing Bit 1 With Higher Firmware!!!!
Unless Using Bit Safe Firmware That Is Patched​
Downloads
SM-F916U/U1/W- Model
USERDATA_AIO_F916U_5G_FORCE_WIPE_10_10_21.tar.md5
This will force a wipe of data no mater what.
Full Odin 3.1.1 Bit1 Safe Firmware
F916USQS2EUH9_BIT1_SAFE.7z Thanks @markfm
This are odin files and will safely update all image files too bit 4 and keep bit 1 bootloaders. Unfortunately this will wipe data this is beyond my control as it seems to be a side affect of mixing firmware it causes data not to mount and therefore my AIO will format it. This is full firmware with USERDATA_AIO. This will put you on U firmware. Before flashing I recommend removing your google account and make sure in download mode you are not frp locked
If above USERDATA_AIO_G78*_FORCE_WIPE_NO_BL is newer than the one in this zip use the newer one from above
Odin3_v3.14.1_3B_PatcheD.zip
TWRP Recovery Provide by afaneh92
Be prepared to have your data wiped. The process tries to determine if you do or do not need to have data wipe but as a precaution just assume your data will be wiped. Especially if using U1 or W firmware
