I currently have temp root only and would like to install custom recovery and get permanent root. I try the easy trwp method but got error that my recovery partition is too small. I also try both recovery by Team Hovatek for Mediatek Auto TWRP recovery but keep getting error CHIP TYPE NOT match, target efuse value: 0A4010000 when using SP Flash Tool to flash the recovery or boot img patched by magisk. I do have a full backup using wwr MTK with SP Flash Tool. Base on the log from SP Flash Tool, do i have MT6735 or MT6737M? When i use ADB tab to get phone info it shows as MT6737M

Brand = v.mobile
Model = N9+_N
Build = Q21_MT6739_D3_16_128_3M_540X1134_B245_B245717_BM_S9+_N_V0.6_20190812.
Android version = 8.1
Kernel Version = 3.18.19+
Custom build version = alps-mp-m0.mp1-v2.84_aeon6739.65m0_P105
OEM unlock = Enable

-------------------------------------------------<< Information: >>-------------------------------------------------
The ROM contains GPT scheme, the full size of the firmware should be: 0x3AB400000, The selected file has the following size: 0x3AB400000.
You have the complete ROM.
Now you can open the <Scatter file> tab and uncheck the partitions that you do not need!

If you have temp root try using flashify or terminal emulator using the dd command to flash your recovery if it doesn't work try to find twrp with same chipset as yours then try to port it

This can be close. I was not able to install custom recovery but was able to get permanent root by using Magisk to patch the boot.img from Miracle Box backup. I have my end goal which is to have permanent root.

You first need to unlock bootloader then disable dm verity. Rooting via fastboot is more advisable
Unlock bootloader using https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-19578.html and report back once done
