Hello Hovatek community
I got stuck when I wanted to root my camon x pro CA8 build number CA8-H633EFG-O-181011v214
Android version 8.1.0 Oreo 

Anyone can give me way forward or how can I get recovery IMG of my phone do that I can port it and install root

Thanks.

you don't necessarily need a custom recovery to attain root, what you really need is boot.img from the right firmware or backup
do you have the firmware for your CA8 build?

No don't have the the boot.img from firmware or backup because I fails to backup my phone ROM

Also I needed custom recovery because after root I need to flash exposed installer

Follow the guide @ https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-21970.html to backup your phone's firmware.
You will need DA for your phone's model to Readback on sp flash tool, download @ https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-23243.html .

Let's know once backup successful.

thanks alot for your support but i have implemented everything works fine but i couldn't get the full length to backup my full rom
when i tried the method here @https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-22701.html
i get the massage from wwr that "The selected ROM file contains only the preloader (EMMC_BOOT1)
In the selected file: F:/Adobe after effect/havotek stuff/CA8/Readback/ROM_0, No necessary information was found to create the Scatter file.".


so am asking can i use any value like 0x3a3e00000 to get only boot.img and recovery.img?

0x3a3e00000 is the length for phones having 16gb storage. It might get you boot and recovery on your phone but it's best you have a complete dump just in case. Root can come later after you have your backup

You have readback ROM_0 which contains preloader, you're now to make another readback of

EMMC_USER
Start address: 0x0
Length: 0x80000

Which would give PGPT, that's the file that will give you the full length address

Refer to the guide at https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-22701.html , you'll get full length using that guide.
Let's know if you get stuck anywhere

try dumping without userdata and cache
to get the address for reading without userdata and cache; see https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-22701.html ; look for the title 'How to skip userdata and cache when dumping ROM using Wwr_MTK'
