[Please help] Disabling dm-verity causes device to bootloop into Fastboot (Infinix Hot 9 Play)
(23-12-2020, 05:57 AM)vvion I manage to get root for my device then I messed around with the device partition trying to move a file. When trying to reboot the phone, it bootloop into Fastboot. I flash my stock firmware and everything went normal again, until I try to flash EMPTY vbmeta to gain access to root again. The device keep entering Fastboot so I flash the STOCK vbmeta and it fixed it, but I want to disable dm-verity so I can root my device again. Please, kindly help!Which DA file / auth did you use? Could you upload and drop a link
...
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot --disable-verity flash vbmeta vbmeta.img

Quote:Download this vbmeta @ https://mega.nz/file/RwZl0IaA#_7U0WFRQXW...8jyqVg2N0wI downloaded the file (Size's 256 bytes) and run the command then reboot, the device boot into Fastboot again.
then run:
Code:
Code:fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot --disable-verity flash vbmeta vbmeta.img

(27-12-2020, 09:34 AM)hovatek It seems you'll need to build a vbmeta from scratch and modify little by little to figure out where the problem is coming from. Do you have Linux setup on our PC?
(27-12-2020, 10:32 AM)vvion I have Windows 10 v1909 installed, and I currently don't have any clue at all about Linux and creating a vbmeta myself
