How To Guide [GUIDE][REALME 8i][NARZO 50] Unlock Bootloader Flash TWRP and Root [RMX3151][RMX3286] - Realme 8i / Narzo 50

Hi Guys!
Since there is no deeptest.apk available for our device to unlock bootloader, we came up with another method to unlock bootloader unofficially!
In this guide I'll tell you how to unlock bootloader, root with magisk and flash TWRP on your Realme 8i/Narzo 50 (RMX3151/RMX3286)
Code:
/*
* This Guide is tested and working
* However I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
* thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please
* do some research if you have any concerns about unlocking and flashing TWRP
* before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications.
*/
1. UNLOCKING BOOTLOADER:
Requirements
PC or Laptop
Internet connection
Realme 8i/Narzo 50
USB cable
Working Brain
Take a backup of your data since it'll be wiped
Go to About phone > Version and tap build number 7 times
Go to Settings > advanced settings > Developer options and turn on OEM unlocking and USB debugging
STEPS
Install Python from windows store
Install USBDk
Download this and extract : https://github.com/bkerler/mtkclient/archive/refs/heads/main.zip
Download vbmeta and patched boot image (Download for your respective version) in copy to the mtkclient-main folder
Now open command prompt or powershell in that folder
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now type pip3 install -r requirements.txt and hit enter
Now type python mtk e metadata,userdata,md_udc hit enter - This command wipes data
Then power off your phone and hold both volume buttons and connect usb cable (DON'T LEAVE THE BUTTONS, KEEP THEM HOLDING THROUGHOUT THE PROCESS) - This boots device into BROM mode
Now type python mtk da seccfg unlock This will unlock the bootloader (If you face waiting for device issue then unplug the device and plug in the device again with holding volume buttons, also don't leave the buttons)
After this unplug your phone and turn it on (It'll show your device dm verity corrupted and first boot might take 20-25 mins, don't panic)
Now your bootloader is unlocked
Due to realme's limitations you still can't access fastboot after unlocking via this method
2. ROOTING YOUR DEVICE:
Install This Magisk apk
Now in pc type python mtk w boot,vbmeta boot.patched,vbmeta.img.empty hit enter
Then power off your phone and connect usb while holding both volume buttons (and don't leave them)
Now disconnect and reboot phone
Now open magisk
3. FLASHING TWRP RECOVERY:
Download TWRP - From here
Download and install Flashify app
Open Flashify and grant root permission
Select Recovery image and install the twrp you have downloaded
After flashing is done click reboot now or you can reboot to recovery via magisk app
"Congrats Now we have working TWRP in our Realme 8i/Narzo 50"

English is required, you can use your native language too, adding it to your post.
Inside the tool is provided a README.md file with basic instructions and usage. To relock bootloader you can use python mtk xflash seccfg lock just be careful to not relock it while running custom binaries, you have to return completely back to stock prior to do that.

After using boot.img from this topic wifi is dead! Now I need original boot to patch it. My firmware is A20. Somebody help!

The provided boot image is from A30... Why are u still using A20?

I didn't know about A20 or A30 or anything. You should have mentioined this! Better off dump user's own boot.img and patch it with magisk. Now I have problems. It is good that I've found A20 firmware but it was not easy, I've lost a lot of time to read about firmwares, patching etc.

Sorry but it appears I cannot update. I tried original and modified boot.img, also I installed original recovery. It doesn't help. The phone downloads the A32 firmware, reboots and cannot start recovery mode to update the firmware.

Flash stock boot, vbmeta and recovery then format data then reboot

If I flash stock vbmeta it cannot boot. Is that ok? Should I erase data anyway?

It's not a problem of root, Magisk works certainly here, it's a problem of patching the boot image.
Either you wait for a TWRP port on this phone, either you want to use the hard way and patch your boot manually like it's explained here https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software-hacking/root-recovery-root-device-magisk-t3779454
But you need a minimum experience in playing with adb and fastboot

Just enable oem unlock and usb debug in settings, connect the OP 6T to pc, reboot in bootloader mode and we can unlock BL, root without adb commands.

The tool will automatically flash a patched boot.img and will install the magisk manager. The boot.img is patched with magisk 17.3

do we need to restore stock book img before installing new OTA ?
Can we install a custom kernel through this tool currently?
Let me get this staright. I've been out the game ever since I got stuck with the T-Mobile Galaxy S7 edge. This tool will sim and bootloader unlock without having the need to wait on T-Mobile sending you the the boot loader token or even your phone isn't paid for yet to be even sim unlocked???

No, when there will be a new update you should flash the stock full rom and from magisk manager keep the root

You can track the progress of builds here
Update 25/12/2018
Beta build released.
Current status - (Tested working)
Treble supported
You flash this at your own risk. Please ensure you have the stock ROM to hand downloaded from SAMMOBILE in case of problems. This will trip the knox counter.
NOTE: ON ANDROID 5.1.1> DEVICES IT IS NECESSARY TO GO TO:
Settings -> Developer Options -> OEM unlocking
AND ENABLE OEM UNLOCK FIRST OR YOU MAY ENCOUNTER 'BLOCKED BY FRP LOCK' WHEN FLASHING.
*****INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS:*****
Flash with ODIN in the AP slot.
1. Put your device in DOWNLOAD mode.
(Hold POWER + VOL DOWN + VOL UP)
2. Load the file below into the AP slot, uncheck AUTO-REBOOT and hit start.
twrp_3.2.3-1_a750_251218
3. After flashing and ODIN reports PASS immediately force reboot to recovery. Do NOT let the device boot to the OS.
You should now see TWRP recovery.
4. Flash the RMM bypass zip
https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=4481843&d=1524258795
NOTE: FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE STEPS ABOVE IMPLICITLY WILL RESULT IN STOCK RECOVERY REPLACING TWRP AT FIRST BOOT.
5. Reboot to TWRP (Do not boot to the OS yet)
*****OREO ROOT INSTRUCTIONS:*****
NOTE: To mount data it is necessary to first *FORMAT* (not wipe) the /DATA partition using the FORMAT DATA button under the wipe options.
PLEASE NOTE THIS WILL DELETE EVERYTHING ON INTERNAL STORAGE AND FACTORY RESET THE DEVICE, SO BACK UP ANYTHING YOU WISH TO KEEP.
Continue with the instructions below to prevent the data partition becoming re-encrypted.
1. To root I suggest downloading and installing the latest Magisk as this is a currently supported project, SuperSu is no longer getting active development.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445
2. Copy the Magisk zip to a Micro sd card then install with TWRP.
3. Enjoy your rooted device.
DEVICE TREE: soon
PLEASE DO *NOT* DIRECT LINK TO THESE FILES. PLEASE LINK TO THIS POST

No matter how complete an instruction is, if you don't bother reading it in the first place it's not going to make any difference.

Can you try this build, it's built with the kernel from the latest source available - A750FNXXU1ARIC.
Be aware OEM unlock must be enabled and you MUST boot to TWRP immediately after flashing with ODIN. Do not boot to the OS.
In TWRP immediately install Magisk.

Same bootloop at the Samsung screen
However i use heimdall not odin so I have to unpack the tar file and flash the recovery image. i also use it to flash the stock recovery and it works perfectly
Does using it make a difference?
Edit: my phone is A750FNXXU1ARK2
A750FXXU1ARK7 Was my build number

Hmm looks like I'll have to take another look at the twrp config or kernel build.
If I pack the kernel into a boot image would you be willing to test if it boots?

Lenovo Z5s Update to ZUI 11.5 (Android 10)

Disclaimer: No guarantees. Follow at your own risk. I am not responsible for bricked phones.
Credits to 4PDA
Prerequisites:
Knowledge of OEM unlocking from Developer options, adb, and fastboot
Knowledge of QPST in case you encounter bootloop, so you can revert to a reliable stock ROM
Unlocked bootloader (from here)
1) Get your bootloader unlocked, if you haven't already.
- Visit https://www.zui.com/iunlock
- Enter the IMEI1 (Second number when you call *#06# with the phone)
- Enter the Device ID from the Bootloader/Fastboot (Hold VOL- and Power, while device is off)
- Enter your email and captcha and set the checkmark to acknowledge voiding your warranty.
- If you get an error saying that your IMEI1 is wrong, put in a sim card and wait a few hours. If it still doesn't work, write an email to [email protected]
- In the developer settings in android, enable usb debugging and oem unlock.
- Flash the sn.img file you receive with fastboot (again, hold vol- and power while the device is off). Command is 'fastboot flash unlock sn.img'. You need compatible usb drivers, qualcom drivers and adb/fastboot to do that. Use google or write me a PM if you have trouble with that.
- execute 'fastboot oem unlock-go'
- This allows you to use fastboot to flash custom system/boot/vendor/vbmeta images

In order not to encrypt Data in the future, install Official TWRP immediately after installing updates. Install > Install Image > twrp-3.3.1-0-jd2019.img
Install GApps
Note: I do not know if the 11.5 update relocks the bootloader. It doesn't lock the bootloader.
I had bootloop from OpenGApps. 4PDA post advises to use BiTGApps. You can install Google Play Store from the built-in Lenovo App Center and that's what I did.
Haven't tried disabling dm-verity and forceencrypt.
Good job, my man, I'll check it out tonight and prepare ourselves an updateable package for people coming from any rom to avoid the hassle of going through all of that. As soon as I get it working will release a new TWRP for Android 10.

Nice job man, so the update works as it should? I'm patching the images and will upload a full ota update to make it easier to move between Pie and 10. Regarding recoverys, did you test any twrp? Any decryption working? What about this official twrp, does it actually work? Thanks for the files man, this will make everything much easier

I've been using the phone on 11.5.111 for a couple of days now.
I flashed both the 3.3.2 TWRP of @wzsx150 and the official TWRP and they seem to be working. I didn't turn off encryption so it seems to work well.
Happy to have helped in a small way. Thank you for your hard work!

I tried unlocking 2 Lenovo phones. The first attempt had sent me an email, but the second attempt did not. The unlock procedure went through though. So I tried changing the link provided in the first email http://cdn.zui.lenovomm.com/developer/lenovoboot/xxxxxxxx/sn.img (xxxxxxxx - serial number of phone) and it worked. This might not work for you though.
As for the OTA, I really am not sure... Probably

REALME C11 stuck in bootloop after flashing magisk.zip through TWRP recovery

I wanted to root my realme c11 rmx2185 so I unlocked the bootloader, flashed twrp recovery and then after flashing magisk.zip and selecting the reboot option it got stuck in boot loop. Now all I can do is to open the bootloader mode and nothing else otherwise it will keep rebooting again and again. If anyone can help me out I will be very grateful. Thank you.
Please answer the following questions
• What software version (e.g. RMX2185_11_A.87 etc.) were you using?
• Did you flash a magisk patched boot.img or a magisk installer?
• Did you do anything else before flashing Magisk and before the incident happened?
Please answer these so I can be able to help you.
• What software version (e.g. RMX2185_11_A.87 etc.) were you using?
RMX2185_11_A.93
• Did you flash a magisk patched boot.img or a magisk installer?
I downloaded magisk.zip and flashed it through TWRP custom recovery
• Did you do anything else before flashing Magisk and before the incident happened?
I unlocked the bootloader which cleared all the data on my phone ---> flashed TWRP.img
Before this incident my phone was absolutely in default condition.
When I asked this question my bootloader was unlocked but now I have locked it and all i can do is to press the power button to see the bootlooping. Can you help me out from here?
I locked the bootloader as my phone was in warranty so I thought it would be better to get it fixed by the company itself , but since my city has been locked down due to the covid situation, my phone is still with me unrepaired .
Now I can't even get to the bootloader mode by pressing buttons .
I wanted to root my device and I followed exactly what was given on this website > https://safeboxguide.com/how-to-root-realme-c11/
Sorry, wrong quote!

1st, what do you mean by "open the bootloader mode" ? If what you mean is you can boot the device into fastboot mode ( using hard keys or else ) then the solution is quite easy. Just take the stock boot image of A93 ( if you don't have it then u can pm me, I'll send ) then flash into the device using follow commands :
- fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
- fastboot flash boot boota93.img
- fastboot reboot
( remember to use patched vbmeta.img )
Your device will boot normal again.
2nd, from A87, the devs of Realmeme did something with the code so that if directly flashing magisk from custom recovery may random cause bootloop. So, my suggestion is to use fastboot command and flash the patched boot images like old times.

yes sir, by "open bootloader mode" I meant booting into fastboot mode.
Now I have realised the mistakes which I did previously--
1. I was not having the latest A93 stock boot image
2. I didn't disable the verification(- fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img)
I locked the bootloader again so that I can get it repaired for free as you know the warranty won't be valid if they found the bootloader unlocked.
Is there any other way this problem could be resolved???

Replied with file sent at your inbox.
Sorry for the late response.
Getting your phone back to life without the help of a Service Center will be tough.
Since you locked your bootloader, it’s gonna be quite hard to get you back. But when there’s a will there’s always a way.
If you have a laptop or a PC, you can use Platform Tools to reboot your phone to TWRP (since you mentioned that you already flashed TWRP). After booting to TWRP Recovery, you can simply flash a copy of a boot image. Since @LinhBT already sent you the file, you can use that one.
To install the boot image, go to Install, click Install Image, look for the boot image file, click on it, then choose Boot partition. Then flash.
After doing that, your phone should be back to normal. Tell me if it works for you.
I'm having almost the same problem, I want to root my phone to install TWRP and Install Lineage OS. I have also the update package RMX2185 A.95 in case I needed it. I patched the boot.img with magisk manager and locked the bootloader (fastboot flashing lock and fastboot flashing lock_critical).
Now my phone stuck in a Bootloop with a Red State Warning and I can't go to recovery mode.

I got my phone fixed at the service center . They replaced the motherboard as those people are not professionals they don't have enough knowledge about the softwares and stuff. I got it replaced as it was absolutely free for me( I locked the bootloader so that my warranty doesn't get void as i had mentioned earlier)
Getting the motherboard replaced was much easier for me than finding a pro on the internet who might have a solution for this.
I believe that there must be some solution to this problem other than getting the motherboard replaced.
If you find any solution please share.
My problem is I don't know where is my warranty card.

Different device?
Hi Fredin friend,
I Recently upgraded SM-M215G device to OneUi5.1 (M215GDDS3CWD1-20230522142126) Binary 3 and TWRP (twrp-3-5-2-m21-v3-1-a12-tar)but anything I am flashing is either bootlooping or stuck on Rom Logo, I flashed (Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_03.04.2020.zip) still only Rom Logo showing, how to boot the GSIs? Any help appreciated.

Hi
If you had unencrypted data (if you could see files in internal storage) and flashed the latest stock rom, but you didn't flash encryption/multi disabler before the first boot into OneUI, it will probably cause problems.
So try formatting data and flash encryption/multi disabler (although I believe dm verity disabler also disables encryption by default, but it won't hurt flashing them). Or you can format data and not flash anything to let data stay encrypted, but then you won't be able to use the internal storage in TWRP.

Hi friend Fredin,
Thanks for the reply.
I used (twrp-3-5-2-m21-v3-1-a12-tar) and it is smooth (just like previous Soulr-A11 twrp) but sideload did not work while the other recovery (TWRP.3.7.0_11.-.M215FXXU3CWB1.tar) by Dev Ravindu Deshan works great too but Reboot to Recovery does not work properly all the time, so sometimes instead of Reboot to Recovery the changes happen when manually reboot to recovery using usb cable also sometimes it does not recognise pen drive. Till now I only managed to boot Tuki1.2 and the other Lineage 20 zip had Oplist error 1 issue. Hoping for GSI boot too later. Thanks for recovery

What do you mean by it's not fully unlocked? iirc the toggle stays like that once the bootloader is unlocked.

Hi Friend,
When I had unlocked the bootloader of the same device while it had A11 loaded in it, the oem unlock button was TOTALLY GREYED OUT (I swear I'm not lying), I mean even the toggle button was greyed out but in above picture you can see toggle buttons are Blue color and oem-unlock toggle button is light-blue but not fully greyed out, I didnt relock my bootloader before flashing A13 Stock CWD1 update
Now I cant flash GSI they refuse to boot always stuck on bootlogo.

Don't think there is any in between state. If you can flash stuff, your bootloader is unlocked. If the GSI is not booting, that's some other issue. Try the new AOSP ROMs instead.

Thanks Friend,
It looks like Royna's ROM zips (Lineage 20 & evolution_m21-ota-tq2b.230505.005.a1-06050648-community-unsigned.zip & crDroidAndroid-13.0-20230427-m21-v9.4.zip) not flashing, reason - TWRP error : 1 Assert failed : update_dynamic_partitions(package_extract_file("dynamic_partitions_op_list") and repartition issue even while sideloading. The only one that boots is TukiRom1.2, I havent tried Tuki1.3 yet. I tried Roynas' TWRP files too but after boot to recovery they get stuck, the other TWRP files (TWRP-3.5.2-m21-v3.1-A12.tar & TWRP.3.7.0_11.-.M215FXXU3CWB1.tar) boot and work with some issues though.
