- Trying to get this working again from my Surface Laptop with win11 21H2.
git clone https://github.com/RabbitHoleEscapeR1/r1_escape.git
winget install Git.Git
winget install Python.Python.3.12
winget install Google.PlatformTools
- Install the Google drivers: Get the Google USB Driver
- Hovatek: Auto Mediatek USB VCOM Drivers Signed (all MT** devices)
- Reboot
- Download the system image via PowerShell:
Invoke-WebRequest -URI "https://github.com/RabbitHoleEscapeR1/r1_escape/releases/download/20240605/system.img.xz" -OutFile "system.img.xz"
- Manually extract the system.img.xz that was downloaded.
- Run the script:
./r1.ps1
- I updated the script to not flash anything because I don't want to lose Lineage, but MTKClient was able to detect the device, no disabling driver signing or anything else special.

- I will be doing this from my Windows machine, with the following details:\
- Windows 11 23H2
- PowerShell 7.4.3
- Python 3.12.4
- Git 2.45.2 installed via winget:
winget install Git.Git - Google USB Driver
- Before starting anything, make sure you BACK UP your r1 to be safe.
- Choose a directory to be your work area. I usually like placing things in ~/Development/, but completely up to you.
git clone https://github.com/RabbitHoleEscapeR1/r1_escape.git- If you check your current directory, you should now see "r1_escape". Enter that directory with
cd r1_escape git clone https://github.com/AgentFabulous/mtkclient.gitcd mtkclientpip install -r .\requirements.txt- You should now have what you need to make a backup of your r1. Feel free to adjust the paths below if you would like to store the backups elsewhere
mkdir BAKpython .\mtk rl --skip userdata .\BAK\- Power off your r1 from the Settings & connect it to your computer.
