Yes, it is safe but you will have to flash recovery with Odin. Read "Option 1" on the How To Root guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1955423
It shows you how to flash recovery with Odin first and then to use the recovery to install root.
Once you have your recovery installed, you can backup your existing ROM and then just flash a new rooted ROM if that is what you want to do.

Since your intent is to flash a custom ROM (based on your other thread here), there is no need to root prior to flashing the ROM. Just flash the desired custom ROM, as they are already rooted.
Also, probably no need to start a new thread, as you've already caused confusion by doing so. I wasted my time responding to your other thread (how to install custom recovery) when you already figured it out (you didn't update the other thread).

Just look up "supersu binaries zip." and download the latest from chainfire's website. Flash it from recovery and the notification will be gone.

here is the "dataversion.txt" file:
"ro.confg.hw_userdataversion=MLA-L11C185B341_DATA_MLA-L11_hw_meafnaf"
My phone is rooted and i have a TWRP recovery 3.2.1.0

I don't think it will work with twrp, but you can try if you want.
And what root method you have there? If it is a systemless one, it will somesort of persist, but probably you will have to apply it again, as your boot.img will be modified. If it isn't a systemless one, then you must remove root first

phh Superuser method,
then i have to flash boot file or use "addonsu-remove-14.1-arm64-signed.zip" to unroot it
flash stock recovery and after all update the phone.
and if i want root again i have to unlock again the bootloader, flash TWRP recovery again and PHH root
i think i will keep my phone like that untill someone do an oreo rom 4 it, i'm not interested with security patches
and thanks 4 ur replay

Is X7/8.1 rootable without bootloader unlock?

Has anyone tried to use any of the root tools, such as KingRoot and One Click Root, to successfully root on X7 or 8.1?

It won't work. We need unlocked bootloader. After unlocked bootloader we can root it by patched boot img

Mi9 is perfect
I like it. But a phone without sd card is not good for me.
Xiaomi seems to replace sony here in my country

root, twrp, camera api

I would find that helpful as well
I've got a Nokia 8.1 (TA-1119), and want to get rid of Android 11's navigation bar. But I can't seem to find a valid TWRP for my phone.
So I'm stuck before I can begin, basicly...

Question Unlock bootloader and install magisk

Hi! I'd like to unlock the bootloader of my RMX3363 and install Magisk.
I have read some of the guides here but they all are installing custom roms.
Which steps should I follow?

Why you want to root your phone?

I need it for ad away and other things

Install DeepTest.apk > unlock bootloader > flash LOS recovery > install Magisk.zip by ADB sideload
or
Install DeepTest.apk > unlock bootloader > extract boot.img from your OFP file > install Magisk.apk > patch boot.img with Magisk > flash patched boot.img
You can find all procedures in this forum.
PS : DeepTest and LOS recovery versions have to match your installed RUI version (3 or 4). For Magisk, take the last version (26.1).

i'd like to boot only LOS recovery instead of flashing it.
is it possibile? how do i do?

If you really only need it for Adaway, why don't you use Netguard? This saves you root and the risk of damaging your device. And you get a firewall on top of that. For all other things like automatic flight mode or anything else, you can use Tasker. Most things now work without root.

Strange to unlock your bootloader and not want to install a custom recovery (keep a stock RUI firmware, I can understand)... If it's to relock your bootloader after rooting, it's a bad idea (it's necessary to flash a stock firmware before relocking the bootloader, to avoid a hard brick).
But if that's your choice (boot.img = file from the LOS recovery ZIP) :
Code:
fastboot boot boot.img
Everything you do is at your own risk, I am not responsible for your actions.

F07 ? You have to wait for custom recovery, developers are working on it. Root access ? You have to extract and patch your F07 boot.img with Magisk.
