Should i use MediatekBootloaderUnlock or is it patched? - Redmi 9 / Poco M2 Questions & Answers

So, i've rooted my xiaomi note 5 with magisk, and i wanted to do the same with my main phone, and now i cant unlock my phone because i dont want my data lost (the apps are the most important and i have all my other data backed up) and i came across mediatekbootloaderunlcok and im just wondering is it patched or does it still work? because if it works then im definitely rooting my phone. id appreciate it if any of you guys answered my question
thanks

yup. it doesnt, tried it

The only TWRP version that works for me is the Dimenzino forks, but those only boot. ADB sideload crashes the recovery, decryption doesnt work thus MTP also doesnt work.
Any other recovery i try also locks me from booting before i reinstall spark.
I've been hating every second with this phone.
When i compare the experience of modding it to my old Redmi 8, this phone is such a pain.
IMEI backups
No ROM's work
No recovery's work.
Now that I have only 1 IMEI i can no longer even go back to MIUI.

This is the only recovery that has so far worked for me to install a ROM through sideload. Otherwise its pretty useless.

Looking at the rom-lord files, theres quite a few roms/recoveries in there, ill try to test the recoveries and let you know.

well, I mean, it's MediaTek....
you can just go port TWRP to your device by yourself, OR use GSI ROMs! (though, GSIs are very.... general, and so, they might not work with certain hardware inside your phone, because they're designed to be a one-size-fits-all solution.) even better, go make a custom ROM for your device by yourself!

So, I figured out how to fix SHRP and other stuff not booting.
Download the last android 11 firmware from here, get the fastboot version. Flash it and then just proceed to flash SHRP and all your roms like normal.

Yes it will, back it up first

If you just want to root it, get the latest firmware from that website, extract the boot.img and patch it via the magisk app.
then just flash it via fastboot.

TWRP
And telling TWRP to boot system just bring you back into TWRP?
Hmm... sounds like you might need to reflash whatever rom you were on.

This happened to me. I installed custom rom then I went into fastboot and installed stock recovery. I would search in this forum for the stock recovery img file. Once installed, I rebooted and it loaded the rom. I had this problem on the latest twrp version. I installed the previous twrp and I am all good now.

Thank You.
Issue has been resolved. OP is my little cousin who's been messing around a bit too frantically [emoji14]
I restored his device with the unbrick tool by Haris K., all's peachy again. There are still some issues with TWRP for 3T, doesn't run nearly as smooth as on the OPO. It completely failed to restore any working system (both from backup or from reflashing). Sideloading seemingly worked, but rebooted to recovery again, adb push only resulted in errors. Are there any tweaked TWRP releases that can do better?

But that modyfied rom too much power consuming! Guys, if you got stock ta1000, dont even think of that damn ta1003rom.. it got native 6 cores active all the time while stock got 2 cores active in stanby.. and no ota update is sad. I think i will try stock ta1025 from nokia 5 instead.. or wait a bit for some new mods

Need TWRP or CWM recovery to root Blackshark Helo!

It's been months since this device is launched, but there are no official or unofficial recovery or custom ROMs released till now. I need to root the device so that I can enjoy features like Viper FX and other Magisk modules. I have searched a lot of forums but there seems to be no thread regarding the rooting process of Xiaomi Blackshark Helo.
The device is a great gaming phone with very high specs. Surely, a lot of custom ROMs can be ported for this device since its OS is close to stock android (JOYUI). Is anyone willing to port custom recovery for this device? It will be really appreciated
Blackshark Helo users please rate this thread to show awareness of this device to the developers!

Not true, you can manually patch the boot.img, then boot it and make the root through magisk manager
I know that method but there is no boot.img available for black shark helo yet, so how do I even patch it? Since this device is becoming popular why isn't there any ROM or recovery available yet, I wonder.?

i have flash your boot patched with root but my wifi il locking off and I can not activate it anymore
I changed the slot on B and it seems to rework everything, then I tried to go over A and extract the boot B and patch with magisk, I tried it with fastboot boot, but it remains the usual problem, no wifi no audio and no microphone

use your simcard. then update the magisk if its needed tobe updated. then, go to instal. and choose direct install. then reboot.
remember, fastboot boot is temporary. fastboot flash is permanent. so no worry if you think you lose wifi, after reboot, it will be fine. let me know.
woooo thanks kanded, now everything works perfectly and I also root! I think I will do a post with the guide on how to root
Is it possible to get twrp for this device? That will makes things easier and little bit safer..
mmmm, yes I'm going to work on twrp but still I'll make my boot patch available, which makes the phone fully functional but first I need someone with a black shark helo without root that tests my boot
I tested twrp for black shark, but the touch-screen does not work, surely it must be modified and adapted for black shark helo but I'm not able

i dont know which twrp you tested, but if its mauro's twrp, best believe, our display is different, ips and amoled, but somehow, i tried the twrp into blackshark helo, and it went well, just the flipped things. but all functions still work as it should be.
search for mauronofrio's twrp for blackshark 1st gen. and try to fastboot boot it.
anyway, rooting is easy without twrp, i choose without twrp for rooting. but if you're more into flashing any flashable zips, lets say the decryptingzip, twrp is your choice.
happy bootlooping everyone.

That answer isn't going to get you anywhere. Before you ask someone to write YOU a really detailed walkthrough because YOU aren't willing to search . . . How about you lay out exactly what you've done and exactly what's happening when you try to boot?

To let everyone know you cannot install twrp you can only do a boot to it through fastboot. they have it security blocked on the z3 play so it cant be installed yet. but if you do want a differnt recovery for it use magisk i have it installed on mine and it works great.

You cant flash recovery on Z3 not just because of security but there's no recovery partition.

TWRP won't see it if it doesn't download properly. I would suggest downloading it to your PC and transferring the rom to your device.

I have the same file.
Boot recovery works.
Ok to flash recovery ?
Have you read the instructions? You do not flash the recovery, you use the ADB command to boot into it and then flash your rom. The rom will permanently install TWRP.
