does rooting change anything else?

surely if the theming gets broken other things must also get effected?

hoping TWRP gets released, really miss the TWRP options i get
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] nomipakistanli:
did you try this method? did the phone create some problems?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] otonieru:
Other than theme, i havent found anything else broken,

Take a note though, even though theme is back, i dont really use it, i always rely on third party launcher,

Some people said magazine unlock is broken as well,

But i dont use it (hate it to be honest) either, so cant say anything much about it, i always prefer to see one and one only wallpaper, until i get bored and change it, lol

All things i use in my daily activity is working fine (Camera is priority, all basic function & setting as well of course, audio, and elses) , but again, experience might be differ
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pretoriano80:
Maybe i misunderstood something, but basically root can only be removed by installing an OTA update or by using FunkyHuawei to flash a firmware (or reflash the current firmware).

Please correct me if i'm wrong!
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Riio:
I can't seem to get the themes folder in root/system to save the permissions I set. It always reverts to 700, and I've tried both Amaze and Solid Explorer. Also, there is a Themes folder in the main phone directory too, does that do anything?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] otonieru:
I was about to answer, LoL

So basically,

With root, the theme file need to be moved from SDcard/Huawei/themes to /system/themes for it to be applicable

Thats all about it
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] otonieru:
No, you are right. Thats the way.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] otonieru:
Normally that would be because the file explorer havent gain full root access so that you cant change permission,

Try Root Explorer app, always work for me
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Riio:
That did it, thanks for answering so quickly!

[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pretoriano80:
Considering how "fragile" this device seems to be, i guess that kernel sources and working TWRP would be the first step, before trying any kind of tweaks and mods. [emoji16]

Maybe this device will see some development at some point, at least i hope so.

Hi !

I just rooted my device and have some problem with theme manager (can't apply theme from app).

How can I unroot my device et relock bootloader ?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pretoriano80:
It was explained how to fix the theme issue, read a few posts ahead.

For unroot, you either wait for an OTA update or use FunkyHuawei to flash your firmware again.

You can relock your bootloader with fastboot, but it will show as "Relocked", not "Locked".

To regain the original "Locked" condition, you will have to use a software which is not free and cannot be found here on XDA.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Vanray001:
Thx for your reply :D

I do it all, but how I can change permission in root folder ?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Pretoriano80:
No problem! Don't get me wrong, i'm not trying to be jackass, but you should do some reading (about rooting stuff) before tinkering which such an expensive device, at least the basics. [emoji6]

You need a file manager with root functionality. Give it SU permissions when asked, than you can modify any (or almost) system file you want. Usually, to access permissions you need to select a file and than open its properties, depending on the app you are using, this may differ. Good luck!
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Vanray001:
Thx so much !

I did this with ES EXPLORER (with root).

I can see "default" themes un theme app but I can't apply them.

I downloaded another to test and .hwt files was saved on sdcard/Huawei/Themes...

No "live" icons (weather, time, cal...)

I don't understand what I miss :-/
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] otonieru:
Read again. few posts back,

It's been answered.

You need to move the themes file to /system/themes and set proper permission.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Vanray001:
Yes, but I don't understand :confused:

I did : go to system, add new folder "themes", set permissions...

Nothing change :eek:

I will try to post screenshots with tapatalk.

I noticed another element : some icons (third part app) are bigger than other... :silly:
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] Vanray001:
So... Same problem.

My theme files are copied to system/themes...

Can't apply them...

We can't attach screenshots.

:(

Nothing will change until you move every .hwt file from sdcard/huawei/themes to system/themes and then start applying it from themes app. LoL

Hi ... Do this method working on Mate 10 lite? Thanks
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
No. Works only on Android O phones.
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] otonieru:
For Mate 10 lite

Use same step to unlock bootloader.

Download TWRP from https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-jfbPa4to0Vt-xifSsnhlIdGreocn5-M/view?usp=drivesdk and SuperSU from attached.

Place SuperSU to MicroSD

Reboot to fastboot mode,

Execute this command : fastboot boot twrp-mate10-lite.img

Your device will boot into temporary TWRP,

Go to Terminal in TWRP and type this :

echo "systemless = true" /data/.supersu (Tick the bottom right corner)

go back to TWRP main menu and choose "Install"

Choose external storage and choose the Supersu.zip file and flash it,

Reboot System

Your device should be rooted.

Note : this method wont install TWRP to your device. You can install it using fastboot flash recovery twrp-mate10-lite.img command, but since the TWRP is still in beta stage, i do not recommend it.

There's no TWRP for the 10 pro! How did you managed to brick it?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] giovanni_97:
I blocked it by moving some permissions of the groups, after which it started to freeze, so I downloaded the firmware and extracted the files, with bootloader unlocked and frp unlocked I tried to flash the files. Img extracts but not all of them went, many system files like crc, Version etc. They told me (command not allowed), however in the end I managed to revive him by doing a low factory reset (proposed by the phone because it was looped) and then it turned on but for example did not make me put the phone, in short, he had some flaws due to missing files, after which I flashed the only authorized version of the firmware, 118C423, before I had the C55 (Brand Tim Italy) even if now the writing in info updates is firm to the. 122 that I had before, the phone works well ... Now I just have to wait for someone to do a TWRP, to fix everything, sorry for My bad english :D
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] otonieru:
sorry, typo on my side,

can you explain your step from beginning ?

you already managed to unlock your bootloader right ?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] SyedZohaib:
1st of all I unlocked the oem from developer options. Later I rebooted it to

Fastboot from adb.

Then i unlocked bootloader with they key i received from huawei

Then i downloaded twrp from your link and moved it to my adb directory.

Next i used the command

Fastboot boot twrp-mate10-lite.img

It gave me that failed error.

[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] psycho_sid:
Just thought I'd chime in, first off a great big thanks to the creator of the funkyhuawei, from this thread it seems like duraaraa may be involved; and to otoniero for the great info.

Support was great on the tool as well, responds to email.

I got a china version of the phone and i'm in canada. I unlocked the bootloader quite easily and then rooted, although i'm not sure i really needed to root in order to rebrand the phone. I got the international rom flashed on it using the funkyhuawei instructions. It didn't go as smoothly as i thought it would, either i don't follow instructions as well as I think I do, or i had a Murphy moment.

When all was said and done, i had a proper international branded phone, no more root, but flashing and resetting will do that, and no more themes as well.

If i root again, will i affect the branding at this point? It shouldn't right?
[Huawei Mate 10  Guides, News, & Discussion] duraaraa:
This question belong in the funkyhuawei thread rather than the root thread but I'll answer it for you.

You need to install the new firmware again. You'll then be fully rebranded.

At that point, if you need to root you can.

thanks for the reply and the support. If anyone cares, reflashing finished up the rebranding process and I have all my themes and every app.

Fabric restoration

Hi [MENTION=2419471]hantaj84[/MENTION], another user told me about a program to re-unlock the mate 10 and also to un-root. It is called FunkyHuawei, the only problem, it has a cost. It is about 30-40 euro to do what I want (factory restoration), and everytime you want to do something (root - factory restoration - unlock) or any other thing, you must buy credits. There is also a risk, you can't re-lock without un-root first otherwhise your phone will brick.

Download Update ZIP

b) and c) are basically the same. In total I need 6 files (3 for each letter) or you just wrote 2 examples but it is OK if I use only the b)

I talked to a Huawei agent and he said to me something that it might be through. There are different methods of rooting and it also depends on the compilation and many other factors. In my case the IA (OK Emy, and the scene recognition) stopped working, but to another guy here, it only affected the OK Emy.
