Twrp for Umidigi F1

Edned

Hi, my F1 has red text in the top right corner after applying an update over SF Flash Tool, saying "TEE:" and "GOOGLE:", do you know how to remove this?

Just successfully rooted my F1 with Magisk using this tutorial: https://forum.xda-developers.com ... ice-magisk-t3779454

I modified the boot.img file on my phone and then transferred it back to my PC, meaning I could flash just the boot file. All working now!

Hello. After flashing twrp via sp flash tool and holding the volume down plus power. TWRP does not stick. It will keep rebooting or reboot into factory mode. Any ideas what am I doing wrong?

You need to clear Data twice and then root the phone with Magisk. Once you do that it will not give you any issues as for removing twrp. The directions are posted here:

https://forum.xda-developers.com ... gi-f1-play-t3922732  :

Now is not possible to flash the recovery through the flash tool because there is a boot loader locked so we must go ahead with adb command.

1) download all the previous files;

2) in Android F1 Play in "Settings System details" enter in about phone to make visible the developer options click several times on about phone ...
3) in Setting System will be now shown the developer menu' enter and switch to visible OEM unlocking allow the bootloader to be unlocked.

4) reboot the phone and with power menu' and volume + in the same time enter in booting menu'.......select fastboot mode.

5) Now in windws pc run the commad cmd or open a ms-dos window and enter in the adb folder ;

6)write the command fastboot devices...and the phone connected with the usb cable must answer the command that is connected..

7) use the command fastboot oem unlock and wait....

8) copy with windows command the recovery twrp.img in the adb folder and renamed it with recovery.img
to flash in the phone use this command : Fastboot flash flash recovery recovery.img
the process will start ...and wait it...

9) make this command to reboot into recovery mode: fastboot reboot.
10) now take the buttons pushed with power menu' + volume + and select recovery mode....

11) in recovery mode will show probably russian language...skip the alert with the arrow back and enter in details menu' on the right top to change the language...

NOW NOT REBOOT INTO ANDROID SYSTEM WITHOUT MAKE THE ROOT STEPS
because the android system protection will flash automatically the recovery original and all of you will lost the recovery twrp flashed before
and all of you will repeat all the previous steps again

I have noticed that sometimes I need to actually flash with SP tools  (replace recovery with the twrp.img file renamed to recovery) and choose the mode firmware upgrade then download now. Then I go into the newest version of TWRP and and click on Advanced Wipe and wipe Data. Then got back and click on reboot , then Recovery, quickly making sure to hit the DO NOT INSTALL TWRP button. Then hold the + button to boot back into TWRP, if you miss it, hold the power button to hopefully force a repower cycle. If it reboots and you get no command or it goes to Chineese writing try again. If you boot into Android, you will need to flash again.

So anyway, repeat that process of advanced wipe data twice. Then as to recovery, then after formatting data twice and rebooting into recovery hold the vol + button on reboot clear the cache and Dalvik instead of data this time.  Reboot to RECOVERY again. Now when you boot into backup this time

BACKUP , TAKE A BACKUP .

This backup is a clean backup ready to install Andriod on your F1. At this time you can install can install Magisk. Just know that after that, reboot to system and you will be rooted and good to go.

Any issues or questions let me know.

Still not a compatible TWRP for the latest versions?
Update 20190528 was the last compatible with TWRP, as of update 2019071519 TWRP was no longer compatible, so when trying to install it at the top a green line appears, it restarts and the original recovery is reinstalled.

Recently I discovered a TWRP compatible with versions from 2019071519, but it has a problem, it is installed normally, but you lose the fingerprint, the fingerprint does not work at all. So you must choose between the fingerprint or the root.

In case you want to check it out, just say you were not warned:
