[TCL Plex Guides, News, & Discussion] kickban:
So.. this is the second time i buy a phone with excellent quality/price ratio just to discover there's no development because the manufacturer does not release code/drivers/wtv..

Anyway, i was seeking some threads for rooting/debloating/etc. this phone model and i didn't really got much.. so i tried other things and i managed to begin some debloating of it with simple adb commands (i was aware of this method some years ago in some xiaomi debloating thread - thanks to who wrote it!)..

after you connect your phone with USB cable you can do the devices command to verify if it is connected

adb devices

and after that you can start debloating your phone with the command

adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 <package>

in next post i will maintain a list of packages (and info) i had before the debloating for security reasons and the list i uninstalled from my TCL Plex without noticeable impacts (usually third-parties pre-installed apps and manufacturer useless apps)

(note) in my phone i was able to get to the recovery mode (and start adb sideload from there but nothing else).. but it still can be done with phone ON in normal mode if you have unlocked developer options and turned on "usb debugging"

Hi, is it possible to debloat the smart manager as well through this method?
[TCL Plex Guides, News, & Discussion] kickban:
if not in that list i didn't tried yet.. i'm not using plex as my regular phone yet and i've been very busy lately..

anyway, if you try "uninstall" that or other packages please comment it here (about the package removed, the functions you perceived as lost and if somehow that uninstall crashes the system or other apps.. i'm having a problem like that in my Redmi 5 because of some app i've unistalled.. i've restored some but still have problems in gallery/edit screenshots/photos)

if you have some info bring it on so i can update the list of debloated packages for other users

I did see this the other day but haven't tried it. I use several apps that you have to use adb commands to use instead of root.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] timmymarsh:
well of course imate will tell u that!!!

Next time you post, tell people the steps u have tried, saves us writing a whole heap of ****e like below, prob why no one has answered u, and do search b4 post :-)

goto the prophet section on main home page there are all the tools needed and guides to help you. Spend some time reading and follow the instructions or u will brick your phone.

Here are a few pointers:

Read the wiki section on prohpet roms.

check if ur jamin is G3 or G4 - very important!!!!!!!!!!!

before flashing, unplug all other usb devices from ur pc, btw u cannot flash if u are using windows vista, so use a pc with XP!

i sugguest putting on Jesterz AKU 2.2 first (in prophet section) - then hard reset.

If that fails and get connection error, try another usb port, i had to try 3 out of my 4 before it worked for me, dont ask me why.

Download hardspl and follow the guide!! do it wrong and u brick ur fone!!

enter in boot loader ur SPL should read like my signature, (G3 or G4)if it doesnt then hardspl did not work, do it again.

Download the wm6.1 of ur choice, look at Vincents one, i like them and pretty stable! There are a lot of older roms out there, so look around. I downloaded 5 and in the process of testing 2nd one to find one i like, see my sig.

If u fail, dont give up, try again and keep trying, but follow the guides and wiki and u will be fine.

remember, pppppp, prior preparation prevents piss poor performance :)

Welcome to flashing!!!!!!!!

Hi, so I was trying to make the IMG to flash on my phone, with U-Boot, so I knew it would boot, but while doing the mkinstaller command it said that a package was missing. CPGT to be precise, I still can't figure out what it is, but I'm trying to make it work again. I'll post a screenshot as well

[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] v12xke:
Yes, successfully rooted this way. I didn't play around with any of the betas so this was my first time to just dirty flash right over 10. I patched my own boot.img like usual and transferred it over to my adb folder before flashing. Since you're using MM Canary already, I don't know what to tell you. Maybe your patched boot.img is corrupt? Did you flash the full image or OTA? Next step for me (after creating a new patched boot.img) would be to clean flash the full image. Best of luck.

Also to add - Magisk Canary outputted a 4MB Boot Image which was wrong - Correctly patched it should be 32.55 MB roughly.

Make sure you pay attention that the boot.img has been patched properly.

Thanks
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] derflasher:
What is the URL for the canary channel?
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Alcolawl:
The boot.img is nestled within .zip that resides inside the factory img (.zip).

How were you able to flash the patched boot image? Using the latest Canary Magisk and latest platform_tools, I flash the magisk_patched.img and reboot, the phone can't boot and after sitting at the Google logo for a few seconds, it goes back to the bootloader where it says it can't find a valid slot to boot from. This is on a clean install of Android 11.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] murphyjasonc:
I had the same problem. Check the size of the patched boot image. It should be 32.55mb. The first time I tried I had a corrupt file that was much smaller.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Alcolawl:
Yeah, I checked that after reading your post. 32.3 MB according to Windows. I even re-downloaded the entire factory image again and ripped the boot image out of that one, just in case if there was a problem with it. No dice. And the stock boot images I'm using are definitely in good shape because I flash those back after the magisk_patched.img fails to boot and I'm able to boot right back into Android. I wonder if that minute size difference between our two patched images is the key as to why it isn't working.

EDIT: Got it. Uninstalled Magisk Manager and re-installed, changed update channel to Canary and Installed it via updater (despite having downloaded the latest Canary version from GitHub). Patched the Boot.img again and the file was a tiny bit bigger (~30,000 bytes). Flashed and it booted right up. Thanks for the help!
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] murphyjasonc:
I was able to flash the stock boot images and get right back going also. Have you been using the Canary build or did you just install it now? I'm asking because I was on the beta build and had to uninstall and start fresh to get everything working properly.

[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] bd177:
I had the official installed and the same thing happened to me. I had to upgrade manager to canary within the app and then use a different device to patch the boot image using canary. Then after fastbooting the canary boot image , everything seems to be working.
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] Alcolawl:
Yep, download the latest Canary release from GitHub, install, and if you'd really like to make sure, set the update channel in the app to "Canary" and make sure it doesn't ask you to install Magisk Manager again. Afterwards you should be able to patch the boot.img correctly.

Strange. Canary patched correctly for me. Speaking with a few other buddies, you may have to uninstall Magisk Manager and install it again. Then check for updates on the Canary channel and see if it wants you to install again. Doing so doesn't hurt anything, and it's what I did.

Afterwards, when I patched the boot.img, I noticed that the magisk_patched.img that it produces is slightly larger (~30,000 bytes), so something is definitely different. I was able to flash it and boot normally.

[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] XMayhem2099:
Rooting 11 is not different from android 10, other than you having to use Canary. I did a clean flash. I wouldn't recommend trying the ota root might cause issues. But pretty much root is working on my end.

And for those looking to have a full screen. Full Screen gestures also works on 10 and android 11

However, as TJW has stated, it is best if you patch your own boot.img. Having said that, I have no problem sharing mine. Hope all goes well for you :good:
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] 123SIT:
Appreciate it. I mainly wanted to confirm my patching was successful and based on the hashes of both our files it was. I guess I have a module acting up that's causing my bootloop and adb wait-for-device shell magisk --remove-modules was unsuccessful in removing modules. Need one of these boot images with only core mode enabled but don't feel like messing with it tonight.

i am having an issue now too. at first i side-loaded the ota and was able to root with magisk canary. but it only worked once and i lost root. so i just flashed the full image and now it won't boot with the patched boot.img file only boots straight back to fastboot. i flashed the original boot.img and it boots up no problem but no root. sucks
[Google Pixel 4 XL Guides, News, & Discussion] hawkswind1:
Had the exact symptoms but eventually it worked. Reinstalled platform tools, deleted all previous boot img's from phone + pc, patched fresh boot.img from factory image zip, took manager manager update in magisk app even tho i didn't need it and it worked.

Same here, no way to get a patched magisk image to boot up. I use the full image update method with success for more than 6 months but even with the pre-patched boot img provided on another xda thread the phone constantly reboot to bootloader.

I did try to remove / reinstall magisk, no success.

Only the stock boot image let the phone boot.

Have to leave without root for now...
