hello viewers in today's video we will

show you how you can root huawei mate 10

pro which is running emui 9.1 viewers we

cannot root emui 10 because huawei has

disabled bootloader unlock command in

emui 10 so only option left is

emui 9.1

so first thing you need to do is enable

developer options uh by tapping seven

times on build number and enable oem

unlock in developer options

then we you need to disconnect phone

from computer and

power of your phone

to connect in fastboot mode we will hold

volume down key

and connect

phone with pc

we will keep holding volume down until

you see fastboot mode

in fastboot mode we can see it is

showing phone locked which means

bootloader is locked viewers you need

bootloader unlock code in order to

unlock the bootloader so the bootloader

unlock code is not free you can use any

third-party service or you can use uh

our service to get the bootloader code

of your phone bootloader unlock code is

different for every phone so you cannot

use my code or

code from another phone you need same

code you need the unique code for your

phone okay i will copy this code

bootloader code

viewers i will repeat that this code is

not available for free huawei has

stopped giving these codes for free

earlier it was giving free

okay now we will use command fastboot

space oem space unlock and paste the

code when we press enter

a warning will appear on phone screen

you need to use volume up to select yes

and then press power button to confirm

your decision once you press power

button your phone will reboot and start

factory reset process

so make sure you backup all important

data on your phone

viewers after factory reset your phone

may take little bit longer to start it

happens uh for the first time

so

just have a little bit patience it will

take maybe two to three minutes okay the

phone has just booted up i have skipped

the video uh of the boot process okay we

should go through the initial

configurations

we was uh usually i don't uh configure

anything in startup

configuration because i can set up

everything later in settings you can add

google account you can add wi-fi account

so

i will i'm just trying to save the time

so that

the video

could be kept a little bit shorter

okay

so

we are at home screen and now you need

to

enable files transfer mode so that we

can copy some important files on our

phone storage so viewers you need to

copy

magisk apk file and you can also

download from the internet you can

search in google magic 23

version and we need to copy this uh

reroo and safety netflix and ed exposed

is optional if you want to install

edxposed on your phone

it is not require required at all for

the root purpose okay

so these three files are copied in

download folder of my phone storage and

next step will be to install magisk on

your phone

we will uh browse to the internal

storage and from there you need to

install the

latest magisk viewers don't use

magisk24 version because those modules

list will not appear there

so i will recommend you use

version 23

there is no functionality difference in

23 and 24

okay

okay once wi-fi is connected make sure

you have a working wi-fi when you are

rooting your phone

okay we will disconnect phone and power

off phone and again you need to connect

in fastboot mode

hold volume down and insert the cable

keep holding the volume down key

and once fastboot mode appears you can

leave the button

and now we will move to computer you can

see the phone is unlocked which means

bootloader is unlocked now we will move

to computer and here

we will

type command fastboot space flash space

recovery underscore ram disk and now we

will drag and drop the magisk patched

recovery if you want to patch yourself

you can also do that i have added the

recovery ram disk which is stock

recovery image of this phone

okay

the patch recovery has been flashed now

you need to disconnect phone and hold

volume up and power button

simultaneously volume up and power

button okay only these two buttons you

need to hold for at least 20 seconds

don't leave the buttons okay

until you see the message where it says

your device has been unlocked okay

there are two types of messages one is

shorter and one is a little bit longer

with three options you need to

uh

see this is the correct version of the

message

if this message does not appear you need

to keep holding both buttons don't let

the phone start okay

because if you don't uh

start your phone in recovery mode

actually it will not enter recovery mode

but you need to start your phone in

recovery mode only then

root will work and you need to do this

only for the first time

after that it will not be required okay

open the magisk manager and it asks you

to make additional setup you just need

to press ok ok

don't cancel you must press ok and your

phone should automatically

reboot

now this step is very important

because if you press cancel the

magisk installation will remain

incomplete and then you will have to

hold the power and volume up key

every time when you start the phone

but if you make this additional setup

your phone will automatically start with

recovery mode which is actually now a

root mode okay once you root your phone

your recovery will not be accessible and

you will not be able to factory reset

your phone

and the automatic updates will also not

work also it is not recommended to

update the phone while it is rooted okay

so uh

now we have magisk23 uh is installed and

now we will proceed with

the

safety net uh

process

where we can pass the safety net we will

disable the

check updates option

so that

it cannot update magisk hide enabled and

systemless hosts also enabled then we

will go in modules section and there you

need to search for

magisk hide props okay you can

search with the keyword

height just type the height and you will

get magisk hide props config just allow

and install it

once uh this module is installed don't

reboot your phone simply tap on back

button and then you need to select reroo

viewers if you are going to

install edxposed then you must use the

version of rear which i have provided

okay otherwise you can download the

latest version from modules list okay

if you want to use edxpose you must use

the version which i have provided

once redo flashed go back and again

install from storage and flash the

safety net fix

module and now you can reboot your phone

okay we have almost completed the steps

which are required for

fixing the safety net after uh

root okay

because some applications will detect

the route and uh

and they will say that you know security

is compromised uh this

of this device so you need to bypass

these security checks you need to pass

the safety net so that

applications will think that phone is

not rooted and it's not modified

now let's wait for the reboot

okay phone has just booted so the root

process is completed here if you don't

need

ed expose you can skip the rest of the

video okay you don't you don't need to

watch

i will just show you the safety net

is passed and then you can

leave okay if you only need the route

but if you need edx post keep watching

this video

okay safety net passed successfully now

we are heading towards ed expose

installation

go to modules section and from there you

need to search

ed exposed okay install this reroo ed

expose module

this file is little bigger so it may

take few seconds

depending on your internet speed

once ed exposed module installed okay my

magisk manager crashed but i think

module has been flashed successfully let

me check in the list if it is showing

no

uh yes it is there really exposed is

flashed now you simply need to reboot

your phone it is very important okay

after flashing any new module in magisk

you must

reboot your phone

okay phone has just rebooted now we need

to install latest ed exposed manager i

have already copied in download folder

okay you can download from the internet

also if

any new newer version is released after

this video you can use that version okay

right now this one is the latest version

okay you can see it is saying

the edx post framework is active and

now we can

we was a one important thing i would

like to tell you that after installing

ed exposed your safety net will break

will break okay so

you will have to fix the safety net

again

and for that there is one module for

edx post that you need to install and

after that after several restarts it

will fix the safety net okay you must

also hide

google services in

exposed height same

same like in uh

same option we have in magisk

you will get the same option in

pdx post okay you can see safety net is

filled so

in download section of video expose you

need to search safetynet okay just

search the safety net i don't remember

the name of that module and that's the

module hidden core module okay hidden

core module you need to install this

version and this will fix

your safety net problem after flashing

after installing ed exposed okay

so we will

install this module in

exposed

and

after installation you need to enable

this module

after enabling module you must reboot

your phone otherwise this module will

not work okay we will reboot the phone

okay phone has just rebooted now we will

see if

that module is active

okay it is active and now we will uh

check the safety net again and

i think it will fail

because uh

it takes some time to pass the safety

net after flashing ed expose yes it is

still

failing okay so we will try to hide

google services under ed exposed

use the uh exposed hide option for that

and there you need to search

google and

hide all google services

in this module you just need to

use that you know switch button to

enable hide for these services okay

you need all major google services uh

need to be need to hide from er exposed

once you have done it

you need to restart your phone again

okay

and after restart

your

edx post is still working

everything is still active and we will

be able to

pass the safety net okay now i will

check the safety net and you can see it

is saying success

i will just try to recheck

okay

everything is working

so

okay the last step

is to check the root checker uh sorry to

check the root access to verify the

roots root access i know it is rooted

but but uh

you know it is important to show you

that

phone is rooted okay

you can use any root checker
