Thanks for the reply, I solved everything, unlocked BL, installed twrp (no stock) and installed root. but I have a problem, when I installed the root, every time I want to restart the device for a series of reasons (slowness, delete cache, rest ...) it starts in twrp not in the system, so I have to delete everything it's starting again. I heard that the LazyFlasher file makes it possible to remedy this problem, essentially it allows you to bypass the security of android to avoid bootloap, and I hope it also corrects this problem (which when I reboot the device, I want to install a zip file, I it always starts in twrp), but during the flash of this zip (LazyFlasher) I get an error: the Updater process ended with error: 1 Error installing zip '/sdcard/lazyflasher-no-verify-opt-encrypt.zip. Thanks a lot. PS: but this file, lazyflasher should be mounted on an SD card to work ?? I don't have it on my device

Flash a DM-Verity No-Encryption ZIP to remove encryption and disable the Verity check. OR if you want to keep encryption and root -flash a 3rd party Kernel like MiPa or Sphinx after Magisk.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Paoloqu24:
thank you. in the past I flamed DM-Verity No-Encryption ZIP to remove encryption and disable Verity checking. in fact after immediately this zip I put magisk. at the access of the dispay I saw a magisk icon, so it means root installed successfully. but the problem is: when I reboot the device to clear the cache ... or install a module on the magisk, it always starts in twrp, so I have to start all over again. there is a way to keep cryptography and root, without any booting going into twrp but into the system. thank you
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Agimax:
You shouldn't have these problems:

Flash ROM and Keep Encryption:

Flash TWRP

Boot into TWRP and flash MIUI ROM

Flash TWRP again (select flash image, then select recovery partition, then select recovery file)

Flash DM-Verity ZIP here-->: DM-Verity (Make sure 'DM-Verity' file is the ONLY thing the file is named. The filename triggers what is installed during flash)

Flash MAGISK

Flash 3rd Party Kernel (I prefer MiPa or Sphinx found in other threads)

Reboot and enjoy!

Flash ROM and REMOVE Encryption: (Keeps Stock Kernel)

Flash TWRP

Boot into TWRP and flash MIUI ROM

Flash TWRP again (select flash image, then select recovery partition, then select recovery file)

Flash DM-Verity ZIP here-->: DM-Verity (Make sure 'verity' AND 'forceencryp' is in the file name. The filename triggers what is installed during flash)

Reboot and enjoy!

If you have problems with any of them, you might need to format internal storage first (where you have to answer 'yes' in TWRP)

[Xiaomi Mi 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] The War Profiteer:
As far as I understand, you are having problems while booting into TWRP. You should boot into TWRP right after flashing it, and boot into OS once again and reboot to recovery. It should work. If you see the stock recovery, keep flashing TWRP. If you want to temporarily flash it, use "fastboot boot TWRP.img" command.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Agimax:
No problems booting into TWRP.

You can use "fastboot.exe flash recovery twrp.img"

Then reboot phone and hold volume-up+power. When booting until TWRP appears. If you miss it and it tries to boot it will overwrite it. But I've never had issues otherwise.
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Paoloqu24:
Thanks for the reply. I will choose the first option, I replace the stock kernel with sphinx kerne, so I get more functionality, battery life, performance, fluidity ... also the developer has mentioned us, if any desired functionality is missing in this kernel, it is possible ask the developer to add us. so I choose the first option, I have some questions before replacing the stock kernel: 1) is it possible to restore the kernel stock, in case of problem, if yes, where can I get the kernel for Mi 8? 2) if in the future there will be a new update of sphinx kerne, how do I understand if a new update has been released? will you notify me ?? 3) are you sure that after these steps, upon restarting the phone, I will find the root installed ?, if I would like to restart the device, it will not boot in twrp but in the system, because I replaced the stock kernel, the same thing is also valid for the magisk modules, zip files ... 4) the last fundamental thing, will I receive updates via OTA ?? if not, is there a way to install future updates (I would like to try the latest magisk version, 19.3) ?. 5) it is safe if I install update via ota, it does not start in twrp, but system. 6) the steps to do are, flash twrp custom via fastboot, I choose to delete the memory, restart twrp, copy the files (MIUI global stable, sphinx kernel, dm-verify), flash rom, flash dm-verify, flash magisk, flash kernel, device reboot, all right. Thanks a lot for the questions

I managed to install the root, doing the following steps: flash twrp via fastboot, copy the files to the internal memory, install rom files, install magisk files, install dm-verify, then reboot, and it works perfectly. but I have some problems: when I reboot the device, it starts in twrp not in the system, and therefore I am forced to do it again. help me !! kernel replacement gives me error, both
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Agimax:
You should not have errors flashing a kernel. Maybe you should flash all partition images from fastboot. Or maybe wrong recovery? What version are you using?
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Paoloqu24:
the kernel is: Sphinx-v2.9
[Xiaomi Mi 8 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Agimax:

[LG V40 Questions & Answers] Android#:
I got a brand new V40 i haven't messed around with yet, i will make Qflash backups for you, which partitions you need? We do have to exclude some partitions such as userdata etc. because by default even on a new phone those are too big to be backed up and uploaded.
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] herb9876:
Well I may not need them as bad anymore but I think it's a good thing for others to have access to. I found a used us cellular cracked up v40 on Craigslist so I bought it and backed up 95 partitions and used those to get out of a jam....sort of. I lost my IMEI doing what I did so this is how this stuff goes. Answers to questions just raise more questions and round we go. Ya userdata was almost 50GB alone so that can sit. The 94 us cellular .bin partitions I'm just about finished organizing them and I will have a link to that in case someone wants those. For sure if you have time to backup and give a link to those files that would be great. One question do you know if there is such thing as a batch backup for qfil? The whole one at a time thing is not fun .

Haha, this is why i was lazy about doing backup that there is no way on Qfil to do these in a batch backup that I know of and it's a pain doing these individually. I spent hours searching online to find a way. And then spent hours backing up all LG V35 partitions and as you mentioned the userdata partition alone took up most of remaining storage on my PC. It is a great idea to have a backup and upload it for others, thanks for doing that. It is also really good idea to backup your EFS and other unique partitions in case those get wiped accidentally.

[LG V40 Questions & Answers] N4cr2k:
So I have an AT&T V40. I upgraded it to the latest pie, then I unlocked the bootloader with the 9008 method. I wanted to upgrade to 10 when it came out, but the upgrade check kept failing checksums on some of the partitions. So I restored my original abl_a, boot_a, and laf_a. The phone was still fine, but still complained about a boot checksum and wouldn't take the AT&T OTA. I put the v35 eng bootloader back on and did a fastboot oem lock. That command worked, but after that the phone showed an error that no slots were bootable. Even with my restored abl, boot, laf still not bootable. Download mode still worked, so I flash the US open pie via LGUP to get back to usability. I'd really like to get to the AT&T 10 version.

-edited. fixed see below
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] N4cr2k:
So here is where I ended up. I think I'm close to actually solving it, but lacking the tools for the next part. All of the partition sizes match up except OP_a & OP_b. This is where the actual AT&T software resides. In the US open FW these partitions are 350MB, but in the AT&T build they are 648MB. So you would end up flashing an image larger than the partition. I still have my fh_gpt_entries from before, so I know what the values should be.

None of the tools I've tried for reading the gpt_main0.bin would produce the correct output. I think if I could create a rawprogram0.xml/patch0.xml I could fix it with QFIL. Anyone know how to create those two files for this phone?
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] N4cr2k:
Just to follow up in case anyone is in the same boat as me. With 9008 mode and Qfil, this phone in almost un-brickable. This method will also let you restore original AT&T system firmware (or probably any) if you want to upgrade or get wifi calling back. By using the fh_gpt_entries, fh_gpt_headers and the gpt_main0 from my original at&t firmware and a kdz I was able to reconstruct the gpt partition table for LUN 0 that would allow a 648MB OP_a/b partition. I flashed this via Qfil using the partition manager raw address feature. Blocks 0-6 (24K) contain the gpt partition table of each LUN. The gpt backup goes at the end of the LUN (5 blocks 20k). Then I could use the amazing partition backup [MENTION=7914758]herb9876[/MENTION] provided (Thanks again!!). skipping modemst1&2, fsg, eri (so i don't mess up my imei) to get back to a virgin AT&T image. Once it booted up and did an erase, I did factory reset just for good measure. From there you can use the regular software update to OTA to android 10!

Any chance someone can help me with T-Mobile partitions?
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] N4cr2k:
Just a reminder, you don't need anything special to backup/restore any partitions. Just put the phone in 9008/edl mode with the button sequence (with the USB cable plugged in, hold vol down & power. when the restart count down is around 2, rapidly tap vol up until edl mode starts. You'll hear the connection ding right away. Device manager -> ports will confirm.) Full instructions here:

https://xdaforums.com/lg-v40/how-to/unlock-lg-v40-via-9008-root-t-mobile-t4042207

Once the partition manager is open, click the partition to backup and choose read. You can even read/write partitions that don't show in the manager with the "Manage as mixed raw data (byaddress)" feature. This feature also allows you to take backups in bigger chunks like one for each LUN. This would make golden backup/restores much easier and faster.
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] cmichaelt:
Hi, I was wondering if you would be able to provide a step by step on this. I am guessing you did the same thing as me which was to "erase entire flash" or the "gpt" I mis-clicked what I wanted in my half awake state and now have a brick that can access 9008 mode and can still use qfil to connect.

I kind of understand what you are saying with rebuilding the gpt partition, but at the moment I am having difficulty in figuring out how to determine the values. I also have an AT&T phone, I believe I have a TWRP back up of the original Firmware/software information, and not sure what else would be useful in solving my issue.

Edit: I found some of the values for rebuilding extracting the KDZ then DZ, but am unsure where to find these values "fh_gpt_entries, fh_gpt_headers and the gpt_main0 from my original at&t firmware"
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] N4cr2k:
So I actually didn't erase my entire flash, I soft bricked my AT&T device and to get it back quickly I used LGUP to install the US Open KDZ. This worked but it re-partitioned the OP_a/b partitions on my phone. Then I used QFIL to partition it back to the AT&T sizes and restore a backup.

If you go to C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Qualcomm\QFIL\COMPORT_<#>. Substitute username and comport number for your values. Do you still have your original fh_gpt_entries[1,2,4,5] and fh_gpt_header[1,2,4,5] from before you erased? If you use the KDZ/DZ extractor from the US Open firmware you can use the gpt_main#.bin and the gpt_backup#.bin as a starting point for rebuilding your gpt tables. For an AT&T phone the only partition that is different is LUN0 for the OP_a/b sizes, everything else is the same. So you can just use the gpt tables from the kdz for LUNS 1-5.

Here is how to recreate the AT&T partition table for LUN0. Start with the gpt_main0.bin file from the US open kdz/dz. It should be 24KB. Open it in a hex editor. you should see a lot of empty space and some data between offset 1C0 and 1F0. Just leave that all there. Next open open your good fh_gpt_header_0 from the QFIL folder in the hex editor and copy everything from offset 0 to 60. It starts with "EFI PART" and will be 7 "rows" of data. Now paste/overwrite those same lines in the gpt_main0.bin file. It starts at offset 1000 - 1060. Your going to do the same thing for the fh_gpt_entries_0 file. copy everything from offset 0 - E40 and paste/overwrite it in the gpt_main0.bin file entries. For both the entries and the headers, some of the data will be different, but the sizes of what you'll be copy/pasting will be identical. Its important not to change the file size. The end should still be the same 24K but have the contents replaced. The backup gpt table for LUN0 will need to be edited similarly. It is only 20K and doesn't have those few lines in the beginning. But you'll paste/overwrite the same entries as before. Same data. The new file you created will be flashed from address 0 with 6 blocks (24K) and the backup goes at the end 15386618/eac7ff with 5 blocks (20K). The main tables are all the same for the LUNS first 24K. And the backups go at the end of the disk. Last 20K, If you use the wikipedia table it will tell you what value to look at in each of the EFI parts for LUN1-5 to find the end of the disk. Its the 8 bytes at offset 32 (0x20) if you want to check you can look at fh_gpt_header0 and that address and see in little endian EAC7FF.

for an idea of what values you are manipulating you can reference this Partition table header (LBA 1)

Figured I'd give you an update since you took the time to make your post. I was partially successful. The screen from QFIL that list all the different parts went from blank to populated. I think it turns out that the only valid "fh_gpt_entries[1,2,4,5] and fh_gpt_header[1,2,4,5]" I have are from my AT&T. I must have messed something up along the way with my US Open. I went from having only 9008 mode with QFIL, fastboot that states I am unlocked, but am unable to do anything with( I tried flashing twrp, but it didn't succeed. Not sure what else I would be able to do with fastboot so going to read up). I also have LG Download Mode and tried to use LG UP to flash the KDZ file I had used before but it ended up with an error I can't recall at the moment.

I think tonight when I get some free time I am going to try redoing it with the intention of flashing the AT&T upload from this thread that was provided.
[LG V40 Questions & Answers] N4cr2k:
Thats not a bad plan of action. If you can get the right set of DLLs and patches working with LGUP. Flash the US open kdz with refurb mode. That will get you a working phone. Then redo the partition table on LUN0 so you can load back the AT&T firmware. That's the long about route I took to get back to a working firmware.
