Well, I have two requests:
1. I need a twrp custom recovery for my device.
2. I need help in rooting my device. I have tried patching boot.img using magisk but when i reboot the device after flashing the patched boot.img i get the error...
"Your device has failed verification and may not work properly. Please download verified recovery with correct signature or disable verified boot."
Help please.

did you unlock bootloader before flashing magisk patched boot?
how did you attempt to flash the *.img; using fastboot or sp flash tool?
zip and upload your boot.img then post the link here

I have done as instructed as follows: I flashed vbmeta using fastboot, then i flashed the ported recovery.img using fastboot and then i reboot to recovery using the command "fastboot boot recovery.img" but i get the message when it reboots:
"Orange state:
Your device has been unlocked and cant be trusted
Your device will boot in 5 seconds"
And it gets stuck there without doing anything, till i press and hold the power button to reboot.
Since I'm rooted already, I have also tried using an app APP2SD to reboot into recovery but still the same, stuck at that message on screen till i use the power button to force reboot.
Waiting for your feedback, thanks in advance.

verify this, when your phone is running stock recovery, magisk boot and unlocked bootloader, do you get the orange state error?
if no, then flash empty vbmeta, flash twrp using the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" then reboot to twrp from fastboot by holding vol up + power & release only power button once the phone goes off
keep holding vol up till it enters twrp

Answer: Yes i get the error. But the phone still boots up after showing the error.
ok, that's fine if you can still boot to homescreen.. complete the rest
then flash empty vbmeta, flash twrp using the command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" then reboot to twrp from fastboot by holding vol up + power & release only power button once the phone goes off
keep holding vol up till it enters twrp
lets know the outcome

I have to press and hold the power key to reboot normally.
I followed all instructions, or maybe it could be that the twrp porting tool needs a fix or something.
I'll never give up on testing till we find a way out.

(17-09-2019, 07:44 PM)king4ng I have done it. I flashed vbmeta successfully, flashed twrp successfully, followed every other instruction while holding the volume up key for the twrp to come up the phone boots up and is stuck on that orange state error, nothing happens even after i release the key after a long time.
