OK, so you must first change the finerprint of the whole device to WW, not just the ROM. You can use this app here where, under system, after flashing WW rom only, you will see that a couple of parts are still designated to CN fingerprint. Follow this guide to the letter and you will have 1907 installed with true WW fingerprint (i didn't follow steps to unroot and lock bootloader - i am still rooted). Then use this guide which you were on, download the zip of 1908 WW and follow instructions. Then you'll have WW up to date and rooted with BL unlocked. Happy days! Good luck :)

DO NOT TRY THIS ON VERSION 20 magisk update, it's just left my device unbootable on 1908 WW saying Slot _a is unbootable
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] secXces_debaki:
I guess you have a working fastboot envrioment already,

try to change the slot to b in fastboot.

fastboot --set-active=b or fastboot --set-active=_b

didnt tried that command on this device, but that should fix it.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] reg66:
yeah, long story short, i didn't see your post until after the following process...

so, many thanks dude, but i had an unlocked BL and already changed the fingerprint to WW, went ahead and downloaded the RAW 1908 WW rom, the rootww190812.img from telegram group, then followed the process here, replacing anything with the 1908 versions and ignoring changing the FP again as i'm already changed.

Then when it came to updating 1908 with magisk v.20 i just selected 'direct install (recommended)' after the clean flash. May help someone...

all updated now with magisk v.20 successfully installed :)
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] Annie the Eagle:
I'm already on 1908. Should I not update Magisk from 19.4 to 20.1?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] reg66:
well i can't guarantee it'll work, but instead of using this method - once 1908 was clean installed - i chose 'direct install (recommended)' instead of OTA. that worked.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] reg66:
did it work for you too? which method?

Thank you so much!
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] iampatricktan:
can be use on WW variant (not converted from cn) running .1908?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] reg66:
Yes bud, but not sure which version of magisk is in the root img, you may have to update Magisk from the magisk manager app. I'd recommend using direct install from within the magisk app to update. When I used this guide to update to magisk 20 it left my device unbootable

[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] WhyKlwd:
Thanks!
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] reg66:
What is it to your trying to do, what version are you on now and its it WW or CN? Need more info...
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] WhyKlwd:
Thanks for the quick reply, I'm on 1907WW, trying to flash 1908WW from the .zip linked in this thread. But I think I got it now, gonna flash fastboot all the .img I have finally extracted. Thanks for your quick reply!
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] reg66:
Whoa, wait a minute dude!, what img files exactly are you gonna start flashing? tell us what you're doing, just want to make sure you're gonna mess it up (not i'm claiming to be a pro or anything...) - it's just you say 'all the .img' are you flashing more than one?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] WhyKlwd:
I don't know what I am doing, I did try to install all .img, I now know how that was wrong. But the actual system.img, fastboot won't let me flash it, it returns a FAILED message essentially saying the volume is full. So yeah, I've been out the flashing rom game in nearly 10 years and it shows, I'm oblivious to how this is all supposed to go down... :(

EDIT: Alright, I got it fixed now. I was trying to flash everything @ boot. Didn't realize system.img was to be flashed to system, vendor.img to vendor and so forth... Cheers!

EDIT2: I made myself a .bat from this thread to automate the process. https://xdaforums.com/rog-phone-2/help/how-to-update-firmware-tencent-editions-t3967755
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] reg66:
that's a highly complicated way of doing it but at this stage, you might have to continue... this is the thread that i used, flashing the raw rom, etc etc. it's MUCH more straight forward, i changed the fingerprint to WW and then updated to latest 1908.21

but at this stage i'm not sure what you have flashed or not flashed, so don't know if you can just run the Flashall_AFT cmd to flash the rom

BTW, the url's have a space near the begining of them that must be removed to make them work, if you find use of that guide...
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] WhyKlwd:
I did follow that guide, that was fine, it's very detailed. It was upgrading to 1908.12 that was an issue.

Now, is it a typo cause you said you updated to 1908.21? I assume that's CN cause I've looked everywhere and the latest WW I could find is 1908.12. Can you please confirm?

And yeah, I am now familiar with the whole process, I even relocked the bootloader at this point.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] reg66:
No, no typo, 1908.21 is here and WW

Q. 1. are you rooted now? 2. what rom version do you have? 3. do you have ww rom and ww fingerprint?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] Hitlerzz:
I am not rooted yet, and I have everything to root the device including the patched magisk img , however as there is no twrp for this phone I want to make sure that i have an option to update the device without any repercussions. I am using a ww rom and i dev confirms that that i have ww fingerprint... Could you please provide me with a video on how to update the device with the mentioned process
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] reg66:
Well this process is pretty easy (updating magisk), but first you need to get that boot img on your phone. Which rom version are you using?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] Spawn_Ishan:
Your method works on the latest 44 update as well, booted my phone properly in the first try and with magisk and all modules intact.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] Hitlerzz:
Thia is what i am currently running on
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] reg66:
So, I'll assume you're already on WW fingerprint as you're running 1910.44 rom... OK dude, so go to this thread and do steps 0,3,4 (but instead of 1910.35 from that thread, download the root boot img for your rom - 1910.44 from here), then do step 5 but instead of typing "fastboot flash boot rootww191035.img", you'll be typing "fastboot flash boot rootWW191044.img" as the fastboot cmd.

That's it, you should now be rooted, although I can't remember if Magisk Manager is included in the .44 root boot img... you may need to download it from here and install it. Open Magisk Manager and check that you are rooted with magisk...

****** Now, WW rom version 1910.64 has just been released and as of yet there is no root boot img for it, so it's a good opportunity to practice the straight forward process of updating and keeping root. So, download the WW 1910.64 zip from here and move it from downloads folder to root of internal storage - it's the main area where all other folders are kept, like downloads, music etc etc, place it there not in any folder.

Restart your phone and when it detects the update, select update, wait for it to finish but DON'T select reboot (you'll lose root), just select 'later'.

Open Magisk Manager and select 'install' for Magisk (not magisk manager), then select 'Install to Inactive Slot (After OTA). Install it and reboot. ******

That's it, you're done. Repeat the process ******....****** each time you update and you'll keep root.

NOTE: STEP 0 (ZERO) ON THE FIRST THREAD I LINKED TO WILL WIPE YOUR PHONE WHEN YOU RUN THE BOOTLOADER UNLOADER APK. Also running that tool invalidates your warranty with Asus, but I guess (if you have a Tencent version) it's already invalid as you are running a WW rom now... so at some point your bootloader will have been unoocked already.

ALSO NOTE: there is a video that you may find useful in the first thread I linked to, apprently it's very good. It's at the bottom of the 1st post

[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] omar.abbas:
Im on ww rom V1906.19 rooted with Magisk can I just follow this method and update? Btw its an official WW phone not converted.
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] reg66:
Yes, just download the latest update, install but don't restart, then go to magisk manager and install magisk after ota to inactive slot, then reboot
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] omar.abbas:
Just another thing wanted to mention I've twrp too so does that matter?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] reg66:
Yes it does as far as I'm aware, you'll need to follow one of the guides to keep twrp, I don't have it so can't advise...

Worked for me

Following instructions in OP worked perfect for me.

I was going from previous official ASUS release, Version WW-16.0631.1910.64 to latest official release on ASUS website 17.0210.2001.60-1.1.97. Had unlocked bootloader and patched boot.img. Followed instructions, booted back up and worked flawlessly.

Thanks!
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] KevinAce:
Can you do this if you already upgraded to Android 10 and have the patched image installed for the A10 release (March 2020 release) and are rooted?

I mean it won't let me re-install the A10 release. But can I install Magisk to other area with the patched image and keep root or do I need to wait for the next WW release?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] CRYPTfromCATACOMBZ:
Updated magisk

Hello folks, please....

Have Android 10 build (official) with twrp and magisk 20.3. Today i wanted to update it on 20.4 and i did this:

5. Press Install and choose "install on inactive slot (ota)

6. Wait til its done and reboot over magisk.

My phone restarted twice and i am in TWRP, it doesn't allow me to restart to system. I wanted to try wipe Dalvik / ART Cache but i when i try it says - "Unable to mount storage"

What can i do to fix this? I don't wanna wipe complete phone (have there tons of pictures which i need to keep)... When i try to connect it via usb to PC, it's not working

I need to get my data back, it's the most important for me

Edit:// so i wiped everything....

So now i would like to ask did u update magisk on the latest one 20.4 via OTA with Android 10?
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] reg66:
I updated using the recommended direct install, which worked fine after reboot
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] CRYPTfromCATACOMBZ:
Yup i have been told that not using Install to Inactive Slot (After OTA), but use

Direct Install

which i didn't know. My bad, next time i will know
[ASUS ROG Phone II Guides, News, & Discussion] apollo3x:
Install on slot option should be used BEFORE Restarting the device AFTER youve downloaded and installed the SOFTWARE of the phone.

Not the magisk version mate

So I used to be on Android pie stock before switching to the Mi 9T. I activated their night mode which change the colors slightly during a certain period of time (just like lecture mode in MIUI).

However, this setting has been synchronised with this phone and I want to remove it, but there's no settings for the stock one in MIUI...

Is it possible to find the stock settings for this ?

Devicewire.co.uk stated that they are going to have Diamond in stock by June 9th. However this morning -->http://www.devicewire.co.uk/eshot/htc_touch_diamond_delivery/index.html

Apparently there is a rumor that HTC delayed delivery due to Quality issues. Anyone with more informations?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] rakh1:
Much confusion atm - DeviceWire claiming to be first in the UK with them by 23rd June. Clove stating UK spec 16th, Hantech 19th. Expansys has already shipped but there are concerns that they may be Grey. TotalPDA have them in stock but are embargoed by HTC, no idea if they are grey or not....

Watch this sapce I think...

[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Darrenives:
Play are still stating "Due for release on 13/06/2008", which I thought was the "offficial" launch date.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] someone1234:
TotalPDA DONT have them in stock, the guy on the phone admited to me it was just to drum up interest. They're getting them on the 11th.

I was previously preordered on htcdirect.co.uk, so i was on the mailing list. They just sent out the following update. Why would HTC delay shipment because of software? Wierd.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] drtwin:
Devicewire claims that they will be the first in UK to have them, officially. They posted that the worst scenario is June 23rd. I don't understand this. Maybe a marketing trick to stop people ordering from Expansys? Fear of defective device can do wonders...

Still, I am hoping that shipment might be in UK before 23rd...I sent email to Devicewire, maybe they will give us some additional details.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] jomo25:
Or perhaps there is actually an issue and it was only caught after the initial HK units were sold (and grey market sold in UK by Expansys). And perhaps that issue accounts for the lagginess differences between the demo videos by CoolSmartPhone and the actual units in people's hands...
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] drtwin:
there is a registry patch that apparently correct the lag problem.

___________________________________

Hi,

Thank you for contacting devicewire.com

We have been informed by HTC directly our shipment will leave the

weekend and will take about 10 days to arrive with us. I wouldn't be

surprised if items are dispatched ahead of the new advertised date.

If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Regards,

devicewire.com
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Dark Fire:
I read somewhere that the new date is a 'worst case scenario', so the devices should start arriving shortly before then...

Anyway, the fact that HTC are willing to move the release date to apply a software fix shows, as you would expect with a flagship device, that they are taking this device seriously and that they really want it to work as well as we want it to work.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] someone1234:
I hope so!

Its funny, i was just reading the other threads and tweaks etc, and how the phone doesnt wake up/vibrate etc when you get an SMS. In a past life when i was integrating GPRS kit at a network we used to have the handset group there to run handset tests against the network. I had quite a few discussions with them about phones and that kind of SMS 'flaw' is exactly the kid of software issue they would reject handsets on.

I wonder if it really is a HUGE software issue, or a bunch of minor ones that too many operators complained about.
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] Dark Fire:
Maybe someone should ask HTC excatly what software problems they're sorting out. Would there be any reason for them to keep a general description of the fixes secret?
[Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General] someone1234:
Worth a shot, but i bet they wont want to say anything untill its released.

If its minor problems people will ***** - why hold up release just for that.

If its major problems people will ***** - if they let that slip past once, what else might they have missed.
