[Please help] HTC U11 root not working properly
[Please help] HTC U11 root not working properly
(20-08-2018, 01:52 PM)Robertvg2 Hi,
Recently i unlocked and rooted my HTC U11 using magisk. everything worked well, except that my phone still does not have root access when i try to use apps that require it.
So here are the details:
- i have an EU model, chipset Qualcomm MSM8998 Snapdragon 835
- i installed twrp recovery 3.2.2.0
- basic root checker says i have root access, yet magisk manager does NOT log any permission request
The problem is that i am stuck. i cannot update my magisk version or manager, it gives me an 'error 1' message. It says that i need a stock boot.img before i can continue. uninstalling magisk with the zip file also does not work.
I'm not sure what the problem is here. my question is: how do i solve this? I reckon that flashing a stock boot.img is my best bet, but i don't know how and where to get one.

You'll need a box/dongle to backup your phone's firmware.

(20-08-2018, 11:08 PM)Robertvg2 So i figured out that my version number is 2.33.401.10 and downloaded the fitting stock firmware. i tried to flash it using fastboot on my pc and then i get the next error:
(bootloader) HOSD CL#1002308
FAILED (remote: 9 RU_SECURITY_FAIL zip from usb command in download mode)
finished. total time: 4.455s
i'm running out of ideas.
