I happened to own a Acer Z220, I want to root it and get xposed framework for additional feature (a 3rd party rom is not expected at this stage:crying.
I find some good stuff from http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=674828, if someone speaks Russian, please ask if vm03 could update the twrp to the latest.
What I want is an updated version of TWRP.
ps: Since this unpopular phone has no excising Root+Recovery solution around, I decide to post what I have concluded so far.
-------------------------------------what I have concluded so far---------------------------------------------------------------
boot into recovery:
1st press and hold vol+ and power key
wait til vibret 2 times then release both key
and press vol - key wait 10 to 15sc
thanks trust4eve83
boot into fastboot
press and hold vol- and power key, wait 10 to 15sc
How to do a nand backup(without flashing a 3rd party recovery)
boot into fastboot
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot devices (make sure your device is there)
fastboot boot twrp.img (doing this also test if the 3rd party recovery will work for your device before you acturally flash it)
now you in twrp
Only working Root method:
I had tried many method, only KingRoot works.
Ps:
You might require a second try for a success root, and you "might" lost root access after restart.
How to flash a 3rd party recovery (after rooted)
$ su
# dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p25
assuming your recovery block is the same as mine, or try:
# dd if=/sdcard/recovery.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery
# reboot recovery
Ps:
Since I really dislike the root manager bundled with KingRoot, thus repeated some of the above steps to get clean system with TWRP+SuperSU.

Dead Links.
Your dropbox link is dead. Please fix. Also, by chance do you have a system.img for the Z220? KingRoot modified my install-recovery.sh and now I cannot OTA update. TIA!
Does anyone have a link for the TWRP? I really need it right now.
--PokeAcer
does anyone have cwm or twrp acer z220
Root it by kingroot. Change it with SuperSU . ( google kingroot to SuperSU) . The one in used terminal emulator. Now u have SuperSU installed
For custom recovery, i can't help u . However , u can use flashfire to flash xposed framework. Download xposed framework , and flash the zip file ( exposed framework) with flashfire. Don't check auto mount , just proceed . After that , scroll down to everRoot option, and check all box inside it. After u done , flash. Last , install xposed installer. and voila!
My advice : don't use xposed framework if u don't know what you are doing . If something gone wrong , reflash ur Acer with a stock ROM ( u can get it from S4trio blog )
Keep in mind that flashfire only working with SuperSU.
The TWRP image is gone (404), does anyone else have a copy?

Hey guys, so this is my problem:
I've bought a OnePlus 5T some days after its release. When i searched for a tutorial teaching how to root the device (i don't know the root process deeply), there were just a few videos at that time. This was the video i watched to root me device (some people already told me that this isn't the best method, but it was what I had at the moment):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9SsIH6iauYQ
As i told, i'm a layman and doesn't know the root process, and now i need to update urgently my Android (its currently on the Android version it was when i bought it: 7.1.1). I've found some threads with a similar situation, but i got lost in all the details that i don't know, like "you need to unlock the bootloader", "just flash the TWRP and stuff", but i need a more simple language like "click this, click that". I really need it now, so i'm even thinking about searching for someone trustable to do it or transfering some cash to anyone who helps me, because i don't wanna lose anything important in the process. Anyone that can help me, PLEASE?!
Thanks in advance

I am not sure, if I understood it correctly. You need to update your device that's clear but do you need your device still rooted afterwards?
Because if not just update your device, it should be that simple. If you need to root your device afterwards just follow this thread:

Sorry, actually i forgot this detail. I have a root based on SuperSU and i would like to have the Magisk one after i update my Android. What you think is the best way to do it?
Btw, just one question: you said that if i didn't want to keep the root, i could just update my Android, but once i click in the system update option, the update fails, i believe its because of the root right?

No, because you have to download the whole update package. Normally the device detects itself if it is rooted/unlocked, so there should be the option to download the whole package. With that the update should not fail.

@ djmarkybr,
follow this self explanatory guide by Funk Wizard, here:https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5t/how-to/oneplus-5t-unlock-bootloader-flash-twrp-t3704592
for removing super su you can use uninstaller unsu

Ok, i read the guide so i'll try to follow it once i get home since i don't have admin access on my work.
Just 2 questions:
1- how do i remove SuperSU? I'm asking cause i've download the file you attached and there is no .exe file or something on it, do i put the files on my phone and then execute the uninstaller by the phone itself? If so, how i do it? Btw, i was taking a look at the SuperSU app and it has this option : "Exchange superuser app - Cleaning to exchange for another superuser app", it works just the same as your uninstall?
2- Even reading FunkWizard's guide, i'm still confused of which order i should do the things. Because i need to:
- Uninstall SuperSU
- Download full OTA on OnePlus website and install it through TWRP
- Install Magisk
is there a best order to do all this? Am i missing something?
Thanks
The attached unsu file is for removing super su by flashing thru twrp ! its not not for pc i.e. no .exe file.
i assume that your bootloader is unlocked and twrp already installed then just flash the unsu zip in twrp > wipe dalvik/cache > reboot, super su gets removed.
You can also go like this (you may need a pc for this):
Since you are on nougat build download the oreo version first.
first download the full oos rom from here on pc : https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3728665http://
download latest magisk zip from here :https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445http://
download no verity zip to remain decrypted, here :https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/how-to/guide-how-to-decrypt-data-partition-t3642144
boot your phone in twrp , wipe everything (first transfer your important data from phone to pc/usb otg), in twrp you can go advanced > format data > yes > done > reboot twrp > now there is nothing in your phone by formatting internal storage (everything). Now while in twrp transfer your already downloaded oos and magisk zips from pc to your phone through the data cable.
Now, flash oos zip > magisk zip > no verity zip > wipe dalvik/cache > reboot > that's it, enjoy your new android version !

Hey buddy, i followed your steps and now the phone isn't starting totally, it stops on the OnePlus start screen with the white balls around the red one. Should i do the process all again? Can i start TWRP in this situation?
edit: nvm, i try it again and now it works normally But Magisk isn't working, when i try to flash it through TWRP it shows "Updater process ended with ERROR: 1
Error instaling zip file '/sdcard/Magisk....' "
And Android version is still 7.1.1 , so i need to update the Android through the phone itself and then i reapply the root?
edit2: sorry for so many edits in this same reply, let me try to explain the status of all the process right now to see if you can give me some tip:
- Android is on 8.1.0 version right now; Do i need to upload it more?
- Bootloader is unlocked (at least when i go "Enable OEM Unlocking" on Developer options, i cant check this option cause it says that bootloader is already unlocked)
- I can't acess TWRP on reboot now, it seems that i enter on some Oneplus Recovery Mode, not TWRP itself
- Root isn't working
If you need any extra information just ask me

Magisk: no; one of my goals in this entire process was to uninstall SuperSU and install Magisk after all, but when TWRP was working and i tried to install Magisk, i got an error and Magisk didn't install correctly, and since i've uninstalled the SuperSU, i'm without root right now, and i can't even try to install it since TWRP is working right now :crying:

If you have oneplus recovery instead of twrp then you can't be on custom ROM, it has to be on oxygenos. Unless I know of what version I would not be able to give you the step by step process.
U can flash twrp easily, simply download the latest Bluspark twrp and flash it via fastboot steps on the unlock device thread in the guides section.
There on you can download and flash the full zips from twrp followed by Magisk.

So today with some testers i managed to make root on OnePlus 7T, I want to specify that 95% of the work was done by @topjohnwu (Magisk creator). For now you should use only Magisk Canary files
I will explain 2 different guides:
First Root Guide:
This guide is for a specific rom version, so you will need to use a specific patched boot.img
- Download the patched_boot.img
- Reboot your device in bootloader-fastboot mode
- Flash the patched_boot.img in the boot partition:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
replace "boot.img" with the patched_boot.img path
- Reboot the device
- Install Magisk Manager
Second Root Guide:
This guide is more generic than the first one, you should use this one if you are unable to find a specific patched boot.img
- Download a patched_boot.img (you should try with the latest one)
- Reboot your device in bootloader-fastboot mode
- Boot the patched_boot.img:
Code:
fastboot boot boot.img
replace "boot.img" with the patched_boot.img path
- Reboot the device
- Install Magisk Manager
- Click on Install, then direct install and wait the end of the process
- Reboot the device
Third Root Guide:
Guide by @gpz1100
TIPS:
Actually you should use only Magisk canary files Magisk 20.3
You can get the stock boot images from the fastboot rom: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-7t/how-to/rom-stock-fastboot-roms-oneplus-7t-t3979213
Actually i'm using magisk manager canary and magisk canary debug to patch the boot.img, I don't recommend updating magisk, if you don't want to see the updates install the normal magisk manager
Magisk 20.3 fully support OnePlus 7T and 7T Pro
HOW TO UPDATE a ROM and KEEP ROOT:
Before all Disable all magisk modules
Be sure to use Canary Magisk Manager and Canary Magisk (debug)
You can update a stock rom from phone settings with local upgrade:
- Update the Rom WITHOUT REBOOT;
- Open Magisk Manager;
- In Magisk Manager, click on Install/Install/Direct Install;
- Again in Magisk Manager, click on Install/Install/Inactive Slot;
- Reboot.

Done, i uploaded them using ftp and i forgot to move the files in the right folder
Working, thanks a lot @mauronofrio
I am on 10.0.3 begin so i should flash the magisk patched boot image of this version, is that correct? With what should i flash, sdk tools or any other specific tool? Is there any portable adb toolkit and do i need to copy the not image in the same folder as adb?
Edit : I tried but the device was locked so unlocked it after finding instructions on xda. Never knew it would wipe everything including internal storage also
Need to install everything again and have lost data of last few days. But I got root so that's the only consolation. Also a lesson never to make unnecessary haste. But it's fine. Won't repeat the mistake again.

See OP, its clearly mentioned there. You have to flash this via fastboot and not any custom recovery. Firstly setup adb on your PC and then check the commands. Its very easy. Do some googling and still if its difficult for you, come back and ask.

I am on 10.0.3 begin so i should flash the magisk patched boot image of this version, is that correct? With what should i flash, sdk tools or any other specific tool? Is there any portable adb toolkit and do i need to copy the not image in the same folder as adb?
Edit : I tried but the device was locked so unlocked it after finding instructions on xda. Never knew it would wipe everything including internal storage also
Need to install everything again and have lost data of last few days. But I got root so that's the only consolation. Also a lesson never to make unnecessary haste. But it's fine. Won't repeat the mistake again.

Welcome to the android scene, reminds me of the old psx scene
I installed some rogue module, that was not supposed to be installed on OP 7T. Due to this, now I am not able to boot into patched boot. I had to re-flash my stock boot.img to boot into my phone. Can you please help? I want to uninstall that particular module thats all. Tried doing something with your TWRP, but it wont show my system or storage at all.
@mauronofrio, thanks so much for this. I had some queries :
1) Is the internal storage always wiped when bootloader is unlocked or did I do something wrong?
2) I have switched off auto-download of updates and also disabled automatic system updates in Developer settings. Is this correct? How to proceed when an update is available in future?
3) Will TWRP be developed or is it not useful for OP7T?

Get your stock boot.img from 1st post.
Reboot to bootloader.
And do this command
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot reboot
Device will boot unrooted.

1. Yes, always wipe
2. Just update as usual, let update go, after installation complete, don't reboot device. Go to magisk, install, install on inactive slot. Reboot. You will be rooted (Warning : this is not tested on 7T, this method from 7)
3. TWRP will be developed but some good dev like @mauronofrio need device for this, as of now, no hopes for twrp. We are lucky that we got root.

Thanks. Yes, root is good enough right now.
By "update as usual", do you mean through OTA? I think the phone reboots after update is downloaded and then installs the update but not sure. So once it reboots after updating, should I go to Magisk and install root?
Should I keep Magisk update channel to Canary or Canary(Debug)? It's already showing an update as available. Should I update it?

In older devices like OP5T it happens like this, not in newer devices. OP7T has seamless updates, its installs while device is turned on in second partition.

So, modules are saved in /data , the only way to remove them without root actually is wiping data, if you can't now, you can just flash the stock boot.img because without root the modules can't work. Usually you can remove all magisk stuff using magisk uninstaller.

Help please. I have returned to Android after 5years with OnePlus 7t and trying to root it. I am trying this method but not being able to successfully root it. Steps I have tried
Went to fastboot mode by restarting the phone but I don't get an option to install the patched image file. And even boatloader is locked. Do I need to unlock the bootloader. And I unlock will I loose my data. Sorry for silly question I have completely forgot about Android.
Thanks, rooted successfully
?
To be honest need video tutorial asap?

Ok. Got it. So, I have already booted back to unrooted mode now. And I cant wipe my data again. Thanks for your response.
Warning! Warning! Warning!
All yours Data and files from internal storage will be lost. So make backup all what you need before continuing
First read Bootloader Unlock and Root Instruction
So your bootloader is unlocked and you want TWRP-recovery on yours V35.
1. Download the necessary kernel
Boot+TWRPv3.3.1_only-V35-Pie-ULM20F.img - boot.img from latest V350ULM20f firmware
Boot+TWRPv3.3.1-V35-Pie-ULM20E.img - boot.img from V350ULM20e firmware
2. Flashing
a) Via Root: if you already have unlocked bootloader and root just copy downloaded f-or-e.img on internal sdcard, run CMD on PC and type
adb shell
su
dd if=/sdcard/_downloaded_.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/boot_a
or
dd if=/sdcard/_downloaded_.img.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/boot_b
reboot recovery
b) Via Qfil: all you need to know is here Bootloader Unlock and Root Instruction
3. Go to recovery ( via buttons or adb reboot recovery )
In recovery you will see a message that the data is encrypted and you need a password, which you not have.
Click cancel, agree to change system files.
In main menu click Install and select attached file Disable_Dm-Verity_ForceEncrypt_03.04.2020.zip
In Wipe menu swipe right, then go back, Format Data - type "yes"

Yes. On my V30 I've never installed a custom ROM. Rooted stock firmware when the TWRP custom recovery (gift by itself for backups), Magisk mods, Xposed mods. You can tweak yourself without having to install a ROM.
During flashing, you may see error messages about 'unable to unmount vendor'. This is fine as long as the zip flashing doesn't fail halfway.

realllllllllllly important. I kept getting unable to mount xx (one of vendor system systemroot randomly) and didn't notice it meant the magisk sticked until I gave up and was ready to settle with no twrp.

Did you wipe your data after flashing the files?
The same happened to me once, I solved that by flashing via upgrade the stock firmware, and then re-rooted.

I just went back to TWRP and used his boot.img to flash within TWRP to boot's partition and then I was able to boot without any issues, I was thinking the same, but it looked more work to do.

Hello, can you help me with the TWRP file for the LG V350AWM?
QUICK STEPS TO ROOT MOTOROLA MOTO G STYLUS USING MAGISK
Just Remember*I just want to warn you that, Rooting will void the warranty of your smartphone
Rooting will block the OTA updates
1.First of all, please download and extract the ROM on your computer.
https://r.tapatalk.com/shareLink/to...1&share_fid=3793&share_type=t&link_source=app
2:*Now, connect your moto g stylus with a micro USB cable, and copy only the boot.img file from the extracted folder to your Motorola moto g stylus device storage/memory.
3:*Now you need to Launch Magisk Manager.
4:*After that, you will see a popup window that will ask you to install Magisk.
5:*Finally please select INSTALL and choose to install it again.
6:*Now Please press on “Patch Boot Image File
7:*Navigate to internal storage and select your phone’s boot image that you transferred earlier.
8:*Wait for a couple of seconds. Magisk will start patching the boot image.
9:*Once the boot image has been patched, copy the “patched_boot.img” from the internal storage and replace it in the same extracted ROM folder on your PC.
10:*Now you can follow the second step to flash the patched boot image file.
Next, you need to enter the following commands step by step:
First of all, you need to Flash the “patched_boot.img” to install Magisk and root your Motorola moto g stylus: fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
You can also use the devices with A/B partition system, with the following commands:
fastboot flash boot_a patched_boot.img
fastboot flash boot_b patched_boot.img
After that, you need to replace [patched_boot.img] with the same boot image file that you have already downloaded with the .img.
Now you will see the flashing process have has started. Now, run fastboot and reboot
HOW TO VERIFY IF YOUR MOTOROLA MOTO G STYLUS HAS A SYSTEMLESS ROOT?
Download and install the Magisk Manager app APK, and launch it.
If you want to verify that you have a systemless root, check the top of the screen and if you see all options with Green Tick which means you have successfully rooted and bypassed SafetyNet.

surprised to see no comments on this topic. I am thinking of getting this phone but only if there is a root method for it.
It definitely works for the metro by TMobile version.

I got root by using magisk to patch the boot image. I purchased the phone directly from Motorola's website. If you get a version where the bootloader can be unlocked (some carrier versions apparently cannot be unlocked) you can root without much trouble.

I found it to be super easy using magisk, provided you have a PC to flash the patched boot.img to the phone via fastboot. I use the Lenovo Rescue & Smart Assist software on the PC to download the ROM from Motorola. You need to ensure the ROM you're downloading is the same version running on your phone. Using a boot.img from a different version will cause issues.
1. Copy the boot.img to the phone.
2. On the phone, patch the boot.img you just copied over with Magisk Manager.
3. Copy the patched magisk_patched.img back to your PC.
4. Connect to the phone via adb. (There's an adb.exe in the Lenovo Rescue & Smart Assist install directory "C:\Program Files (x86)\Rescue and Smart Assistant".)
5 . Reboot the phone to the bootloader with the following command on the PC:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
6. Flash the patched boot image with the following command on the PC:
Code:
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img
7. Reboot the phone with the following command on the PC:
Code:
fastboot reboot
Once rebooted you can use Magisk Manager to hide root, check the SafetyNet status, etc.
Thank you for your help on this. I rooted my moto x4 long time ago and the process has definately changed.
Still confused regarding your points
1 - where can i find the boot.img
2 - how do you patch using magisk
Also do you not need to unlock boot loader and bypass the verification and why do you need to hide root after?
Thank you

In the Lenovo software you can choose a download location. The default appears to be "C:\ProgramData\LMSA\Download". In that directory you'll see a "RomFiles" folder which contains folders for the different ROM versions it has downloaded. SOFIAP_RETAIL_QPR30.80_58_subsidy_DEFAULT_regulatory_DEFAULT_CFC.xml or SOFIAP_RETAIL_QPRS30.80_58_3_subsidy_DEFAULT_regulatory_DEFAULT_CFC.xml for example. You can find the boot.img file within those folders.
The QPRD30.80_58_3 boot.img file is located in "C:\ProgramData\LMSA\Download\RomFiles\SOFIAP_RETAIL_QPRS30.80_58_3_subsidy_DEFAULT_regulatory_DEFAULT_CFC.xml"
Some people share links to the ROM files but I prefer to get mine from Motorola.

You do need to unlock the bootloader, unless you have the private key Motorola uses to sign images . Just follow the instructions on the Motorola website. Unlocking the bootloader & rooting are two separate things. You need to unlock the bootloader to allow the hardware to boot unsigned images, such as a patched boot image. Root provides applications root access to the Android OS.
You typically want to hide root as some apps won't function if they detect root, mostly banking & video streaming services I believe. It's not a requirement however.
Thank you again. I will take a good look at the guide and then decide if it is something that I can attempt

Wait DOES THIS WIPE ALL THE DATA?? I CANT get a clear answer. Supposedly the "official" unlocking through Motorola does but this is the Magisk method and I'm hoping it doesn't wipe the user data or apps.
Also how do you root AFTER you unlock the bootloader?

I honestly don't know. When I did the steps from op I unlocked the bootloader then rooted. I never booted into system. I can't check now because I'm running havoc os gsi and the op method doesn't work on gsis. I tried and it didn't boot but when I flashed the stock boot.img all my setup was still the same. Hope that helps some.

No I bought the unlocked model from best buy cuz I know carrier models usually aren't rootable. Can some one post a link to the right boot.img

There are instructions on rooting in these forums, even in this thread.
Unlocking the bootloader forces user data to be wiped (aka factory reset).
Rooting with Magisk does not wipe user data.
Unlocking the bootloader and rooting are two separate things. Unlocking the bootloader allows unsigned images, such as a modified boot.img, to be run on the device. Rooting provides applications root level access to the Android OS.

It sounds like the boot image you're flashing does not match the version of the ROM on the phone. From your subsequent post, it looks like you're running QPRS30.80-58-3. Where did you get the boot.img file that you patched? You can use the Lenovo Rescue software to download the ROM files right from Motorola. These will contain the entire ROM, including the original boot image. Details are in the posts preceding yours. Flash the original boot.img & see if the phone boots. If it does, patch that image with Magisk & flash to obtain root.

Try fastboot flash boot boot.img. When i did the stot a and b method i lost touchscreen etc
I bought a second stylus and the root method is different. So I fastboot flash the image (not to slots) and it worked but when the screen goes off the touch screen isn't responding.
I got it to work by using the assistant mentioned above. And using the fastboot flash magisk_patched.img or fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img I can't remember which one at the moment but it automatically flashed both A and B slots with no problems. Also is TWRP available for the G Stylus?

i just had the same thing happen to me. But i went to the assistant software and tried to rescue my device and it failed. Did you get it to work and how exactly did you get it working?
Edit: I just got it rescued and Im back up and running. Now I just need to figure out how not to repeat whatever mistake I just made and to get my device rooted. Did you ever figure out what you did wrong?

I am having the same issue while in fastboot, the device reboots bootloader every 20-30 seconds. I had to wait till the screen went off before hitting enter to get OEM Get_unlock_code.
