P9 Bootloop after installing 'Elite Kernel', but can still use ADB and fastboot

Hello. a little while ago I restored my Huawei p9 lite nougat L31C440B380 rom from a bootloop thanks to tw1st3d83's P9 Lite Toolkit but since then i haven't been able root it again properly using magisk and other supersu apps because when i boot up music and sound don't play on my apps and videos on apps don't work at all, yet when i unroot my phone works normally, which is strange as i've rooted many times before with no problems. I'd been having some issues with magisk then due to installing and then deleting the viper4arise mod as apps didn't show in my drawer and magisk modules as well as the manager started to malfunction frequently. I looked around for anything that might help me fix this and came across HassanMirza01's P9 Lite elite kernel (All Variants CxxB3xx Phh Superuser v9 version and MagiskSU v10 version based on the b380 Rom) and decided to try it out. I used a special modded version of oldroid's twrp (TeamElite) https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=889764386195914200 to flash the kernels, the phh Superuser 9 version, https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862726224 , and the magiskSU 10 version, https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid...0096634768996. Because they were pre-rooted, I assumed at the time i'd be able to solve my root problem.
When i was using the kernel I noticed everything ran more smoothly than usual but sound and video still weren't working. Because the kernels were pre-rooted before i installed, i think they may have modified the boot image in such a way that even when i completely format data with twrp and do an advanced wipe, then restore the factory images including the stock boot image i extracted from the B380 rom it starts up normally but gets stuck on the loading screen. At first I thought it needed time to load so I left it to charge overnight as the battery was pretty low but i when i woke up the next morning it was still on the Huawei logo. i don't think the kernel has an uninstaller or if there's one i can flash that doesn't have root. If i flash the boot image that I patched earlier with magisk, everything loads fine but i'm still faced with the same problems with no video or sound. I've been thinking of just reflashing the stock images and then relock the bootloader so i can do three button "dload" method for a clean install of my B380 rom as i've tried to use it before and failed as i get this error message before it finishes:
write radio image...
32K crc checked failure
E:unknown command [errno]
update_huawei_pkg_from_ota_zip: update from zip failed
Updater process ended with ERROR: 7
But seeing as how the kernel has altered the boot image I can only use the boot image that I patched with magisk or supersu.
I'm definitely sure that the method won't be able to work on a phone that's rooted but what i'm more worried about is that something goes wrong and i end up in a bootloop with no way to use adb to unlock the bootloader or use recovery, pretty much bricking the device. I've looked around for other kernels i might be able to flash and restore my device like Smoky Kernel and Rusty Kernel but they didn't work at all as opposed to the Elite Kernel. Can I lock the bootloader with a rooted phone and my reinstall my stock rom with the three button method or is there another way i could go about this? I'm asking this way because every time i unroot with either magisksu elite kernel or my magisk boot image the phone will always bootloop. The TWRP version I'm on, 3.1.1-0 isn't very useful at the moment compared to when I was on MM because when I had a problem I just flash and forget, but as the stock rom has two files it's a bit harder for me to get the hang of it so i would be very grateful for where to go from here.

Zenfone 2 Laser (ZE500KL) - problem with bootloader, twrp & supersu

Hello,
recently I have flashed my ze500kl with XenonOS. I would like to go back to stock rom but I have couple problems.
First of all - my bootloader is now locked. I wanted to unlock it via SuperSU, that is already installed on my phone but when I try to open SuperSU App I see this:
"SU Binary occupied"
So I found tutorial on how to fix this issue, but the problem is i can't uninstall SuperSU, I can only disable it in App options.
Then I tried to install TWRP via App from Google Store, but offcourse my phone isn't rooted so I can only download TWRP installation files but can't initiate installation via App. I downloaded TWRP on my PC, opened ADB in CMD, installed it there and rebooted my phone. TWRP isn't loading and my device stuck on ASUS welcome screen.
I tried also WINDROID but I get lots of errors, so it's not working for me either.
Please help me unlock and root my phone. I really want to go back to stock os.
Thanks!

For anyone who struggle with the same issues.
Use ADB and twrp_2.8.7.7.img. I don't know why, I don't know how but this version of TWRP works.

OTA updates for rooted L29 P10+ ... without losing data

I have a rooted (With magisk) L29 P10+...So I have tried direct OTA update from EMUI...downloads and on reboot goes to TWRP. I tried using Firmware Finder and same thing happens (with and without proxy). I then tried uninstalling Magisk (root) and trying again but that did not work.
What I would like is top go to the newest OTA update so I don't keep getting the NAG message of my need to update...but MOST IMPORTANTLY...I do not want to have to redo my phone, i.e. data and layouts with folders. Is it possible? I cannot seem to find a link for the p10+...I kind of see one for the Honor and TWRP install but I do not want to corrupt and have to start from scratch.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
I have same issue. Did you get this resolved?
Well. i guess you have to:
a) install original recovery (may get one from update file or from forum, i saw download links here) with fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery_ramdis.img
b) install update
c) install twrp with fastboot
d) install magisk from twrp
actually, there's this thread, which worked for me also. https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10-plus/how-to/flash-stock-updates-twrp-installed-t3819734

Root with app.

hello I have tried several applications to try to get root on my redmi 3s device without getting good results. I would like to get root without adb or fastboot, just with some application. I already tried with kingroot, framaroot, a Chinese native etc .... the version that I have installed today is MIUI 10.2 stable version running marshmallow 6.0.0. thanks for helpme:good:
When I wanted to root, I also used all of these apps but they could not root my REdmi 3s. If you have a PC best way is to unlock the bootloader and then install TWRP and then flash magisk or SuperSU zip file.

Yes friend, that is indeed the best way, what I wanted is to find an application that would do it by itself, I think that with the MIUI stable you can not without PC. I already have the bootloader unlocked for years, but I reinstalled the stable MIUI and I left it like that, in the past I tried many ROMs. Thank you very much for trying to help, it does so in console and with the command adb fastboot flash recovery.
AFAIK there might be no app that could root MIUI phones or perhaps newer android versions because I tried using these apps on my Lenovo K8 Note also which is stock Android 8.1 and they couldn't root that either.

Try with magisk.zip.

relock bootloader after removing magisk ?

Hello everyone.
I've been trying to find an answer, but everyone only asked if they can relock while having magisk installed. So my approach is a bit different.
What is I install magisk to remove some preinstalled apps (stock rom), and then remove magisk, flash the original boot.img and relock the bootloader ?
Is this going to work?
A little context:
I installed lineageos on my redmi 7a and it's really great and i wish i could keep it, but there's just one problem.... My banking app (unicredit) crashes on attempting to login.
I suppose there's no choice but to return to stock rom and locked bootloader.
Except i had a problem with the stock rom. I think it was spamming the read-only partitions with some caches and ended up filling the storage. I didn't even have a lot of apps installed and tried to empty some caches but it made no difference. So that's why i wanted to move to a custom rom, there was lots more free space that way. And yes i know about the user-level uninstalling of apps via adb but i wanted to free up more space by removing them from the system image, thus the need for root. But then when I'm done i want to remove root and relock the bootloader so this damn banking app could work.
About the banking app, have tried installing gapps and then hiding magisk ?
