Guide: HOW TO ROOT O+ / 8.7 OPLUS

Phone Specs:
Hardware : MT6575
Model : O+_8.7_Android
Build number : Oplus_A100ALPS.GB2.MP.V2
Build date UTC : 20120706-085741
Android v : 2.3.6
Baseband v: MAUI.11AMD.W11.50.SP.V13.P1, 2012/04/27 18:49
Kernel v : 2.6.35.7 ([email protected]) (gcc version 4.4.3 (GCC) ) #1 Fri Jul 6 16:56:36 CST 2012
Rooted via unsecured boot.img
and successfully flashed ClockWorkMod Recovery.
We need to modify the stock boot.img of the phone because it is "impossible" to root the device that has "ro.secure=1" setting in the boot.img , that is the reason why we need to modify the stock boot.img to have an "ro.secure=0"
If you are able to flash the modified boot.img to the phone.
ANY ROOTING METHOD will do, like
superoneclick, unlock me, or any exploit that uses ZergRush
take note that O+8.7 is MT6575
just follow instructions here if you want how to modify your own stock boot.img
http://www.mediafire.com/view/?n3m5ei65dn2qckx
Im not responsible for any damage that may be incured. im just sharing. I hope you understand.
The Easy Way:
If you want to use my modified boot.img. follow the succeeding instructions.
...

OPLUS 7.1 Tab
Has anyone tried rooting their OPlus Tab 7.1? Mine's new so I'm still reluctant to do it. Will definitely ruin the warranty.
Just need to know if someone has successfully done that so I can root mine once the warranty is expired.

Is there a custom rom for this smartphone? If there is,please send me a message.

WORKING
Just rooted my phone yesterday...
What I did is that I just follow those given steps stated above but you really have to be careful because it might not work properly..
it is said in the step #6 that you must enable usb debugging to do this you have to go to:
SETTINGS >> APPLICATION >> DEVELOPMENT >> USB DEBUGGING (enable) and TURN OFF YOUR MOBILE PHONE.
step #7 Click DOWNLOAD FIRST and wait for the message in the bottom right said: PLEASE INSERT USB CABLE you will be given a 14sec time so you really have to insert the cable fast. After this step you will see the yellow bar to download and after that you will see the green box for successful confirmation.
try to reboot your phone and turn it on.
after this you can now root your phone but I suggest you use the SuperOneClick v2.3.3 ShortFuse.zip.
(z4root and universal androot is not applicable. I tried this 2 kind of root apps already.)
Just ENABLE USB DEBUGGING, insert your USB CABLE to the computer.
Download superoneclick from any site make sure to extract the files open it and you will see an ANDROID ICON with superoneclick.exe run the application then a box will appear.
Go to ADVANCE and click SEARCH DRIVERS then the USB DRIVER for O+ 8.7 will automatically download.
After that go to basic then click ROOT SHELL or SHELL ROOT. Then, click the ROOT. Systems from your mobile device will be seen. Wait for the box to be shown saying that your phone is successfully rooted. If you are in doubt you can do it again, repeating the same steps but don't repeat for the usb driver to download.
Reboot your phone. Turn it on and you will see superuser downloaded to your system application. If your still in doubt if your phone is rooted or not download ROOT CHECKER in your phone. Install the apps, run it and click the CHECK NOW. ROOTED will be shown in the status section.
Congratulations! Your phone is rooted!
If your not 100% sure of rooting your phone try to keep this for future use after the warranty of your phone expires.

AGREED

Preloader and DSP_BL needed please for Oplus 8.7 re-flashing...
To QYOBZ,
Can you provide me with proper Preloader and DSP_BL images for Oplus 8.7 android.?
Please, I really need help to those files because my back-up Preloader and DSP_BL images doesn't load up.
What should I do to load those 2 files properly?
I need it so that I can revive my bricked Oplus phone because I accidentally subjected the phone for Memory test when I used the SP Flash Tool. I used the same version of SP Flash Tool you have provided QYOBZ, can you help me with this please..!
Thanks!

Foreground
A Chaina re-branned phone
A fastboot mode
A useless recovery mode
A locked boot.img (thats why even chmod or simply pushing a su will not root the phone)
A IMEI number(which if you mess up after flashing,you will not get any radio signals)
1)First Unlock the Boot IMG
Before you proceed I will strongly recommend to download the tutorial guide ppt that you will find in Recent Activity list at the top of this post
You need to tamper permission after extracting the boot.img for this.No worry guys i have already done that for you .Just download the below file
Unsecured Boot Image
Now a bit critical part,read carefully .This unlocked image needed to be flashed to your device.For that you need research download and firmware pac file.
Download this to files from the below links
PAC versions & Tools Download
(pac file,driver,research download all included)
Download this drivers and install,after successfull installtion you will have(under device manager)
1.ABD interface
2.two COM ports
3.two emulators
If any of this having yellow sign it will not work.
Open research download
click on first button and load pac file
click on second button change baudrate to 115200,in calibration tab uncheck all.
For BOOT_IMG option browse and select the unlockedboot.img that you downloaded now.
plugin the usb cable(DON'T plugin the phone now)
click on play button
PRESS & HOLD VOLUME UP KEY and insert the usb cable,don't release the key.
Download should starts within 3 secs.If it doesn't then check the drivers carefully or reply to this thread with failures.
Once done unplug your phone and remove battery for 3 second
Reinsert battery and restart your phone.
YES!! you have successfully unlocked the boot.img
2)WiseMen Backup!!
First thing you should do before any tweaking and twisting save your back!!.Install CMW using the below method straight away and save your back.
1.Download .andriod.zip,extract it and save it under C:\Users\<computer name>\<paste it here>
http://www.mediafire.com/download/ga5tk2h89m41ddk/.android.zip
2.From your phone got to application-->developer option-->enable usb debugging
3.Now plugin your phone through micro usb cable.
4.Download this zip ,extract and place in under c:/<paste it here>
http://www.mediafire.com/download/s2as5grqceqtqq3/Android_Multi_tool.zip
5.Open a command prompt type
Code:
cd C:\Android Multi tool
C:\Android Multi tool>fastboot devices
20080823 fastboot
Note:you will NOT be able to proceed further if this doesnt shows up.Double check the andriod.zip has adb_usb.ini file.
Now we will flash a custom recovery image in fastboot mode.
Code:
C:\Android Multi tool>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
sending 'recovery' (10240 KB)...
OKAY [ 10.487s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 3.425s]
finished. total time: 13.918s
7.Reboot your phone.
8.Now got to CMW using Volume up + power button and do a backup.
3)Push superuser zip & ROOT!!!
This the easiest step among all of them.Download the below file,put it under sdcard and flash it through CMW.
http://www.mediafire.com/download/t55b6ebzvx9yf1f/update.zip
THAT'S IT you are rooted!!!
REMEMBER,PROBABILITY OF BRICKING IS MINIMUM AS I HAVE ALREADY DONE ALL THE TEST FOR YOU GUYS !!!.STILL IF ANYTHING GOES WRONG DONT PANIC,JUST FLASH A FIRMWARE AS MENTIONED ABOVE(point 1) EVENIF YOUR PHONE IS
TOTALLY DEAD .

You should not flash anything before you have unlocked the boot.img.It comes with a locked boot so flashing through fastboot may not work.
First thing that you should do now is stage up a windows xp with the drivers that i have linked here.connect your phone with research download and do a firmware flash.This will recovery your phone to its orginal state.Then follow my steps from the start(pls dont skip)

Dont get me wrong but i think it is better to log your errors here as it might help others as well as me to correct the OP.
Once you have the setup use exact set of drivers and pac file that i linked in this thread.remember if you have a successful driver installation then you will have at least(under device manager)
2 new COM ports
2 emulators
I am working on capturing few snapshots or a demonstration guide,it will take time as i recently lost my bag-pack,will update with videos once i stage up.

check all files in main page,but for boot_img browse a select the unlocked boot.img that i have linked in this thread.The idea is to flash the unlocked boot.img instead of stock boot.img. Uncheck all in calibration page.Keep baudrate 115200
Also download the ppt that i just added.It may help you. Don't give up,setting the drivers will take trails & errors but i guarantee you the success

Great news buddy.If you have used my unlocked boot.img while flashing then rest of the steps will be a breeze to you.Install CWM and take a full back up.Then flash the update.zip,thats it.

Does it just says root failed ? Maybe you should start the rooting process from the beginning of the tutorial (or) maybe your device is still on the previous Software version (i.e v10.0.3), make a check and do update your device if it's the previous update on your device and then try again rooting your device using this tutorial.

cache
dalvik
system
data
internal memory

Need step by Step instructions please
Hello
I am a novice with many of the tools listed & the steps outlined, can somebody please help with step by step instructions,
maybe email me [email protected]
:good:

Thanks. For my XPERIA T2 ULTRA DUAL I had to made a change:
Instead of using the Recovery-Software you (rituraj_singh) offered I had to use the software (TWRP) recommended b abcdjdj in his post from 27th May 2014 ((D5322) Dual Recovery) on the XDA-Forum.
For the not-experienced Users of Androxyde Xperia Flash Tool: You can use the XperiFirm-Software (XI-Button in the Flash-Tool) and install the 5.0.1 (19.3.A.0.472)-Firmware from MELA Latin, but you have to overwrite also the Userdata and the Apps-Log, otherwise there are problems. After flashing use KingRoot to root your device, than replace kinguser using the batch-script of w0lfdroid.com (May 2015) placing the mrw-folder (included in the downloaded zip) on the intern memory (important) and executing it with Terminal Emulator. Than open SuperSu (installed by the script, not by you), and actualize the root-script. Afterwards reboot.
A Tip: After having installed the TWRP-Software on your phone you could have problems rebooting into the system, so prepare all and after having flashed the custom prf-rom on the device all would be function!

Here comes a step-by-step-Version (summary) of all the "Posts"s needed for rooting Lollipop 5.1.1 on your Sony Xperia T2 Ultra (Dual).
The copyright is by the "Post"-authors like rituraj_singh and abcdjdj (I took the links to the posts nearby the description of the step) and by w0lfdroid.com, xperiafirmware.com and the software-producers.
I only wanted to create a step-by-step-summary. There is no garantuee which garantuees success using the summery! No responsability dad it does not destroy your mobilephone. Use it at your own risk! Thank you to the original "owners" of the posts. I hope the summary is ok for them! Otherwise contact me.
Time: maybe 1 hour or 2 hours
Tipp: if you until yet did not install Android 5.1.1 on your Xperia T2 Ultra Dual you do not have to follow the steps which are describing how to download the older Firmware via XperiFirm, but you should have installed the FlashTool just for the drivers (You won't use it directly). You can use the steps describing how to root the older Firmware using KingRoot, than continue with step 7.
1) Install the Androxyde FlashTool on your Computer: http://www.flashtool.net/downloads.php or found on the XDA-Forum, install the ADB-Packages (ADB, ADB-Drivers) on your Computer and make the ADB-Command part of the "path"-Variable of your Computers Terminal (see Google)

9) Now copy the .ftf-file (Firmware) downloaded from xperiafirmware.com also in the unzipped PRF-Creator-folder and open the PRF-Creator.exe
10) The PRF-Creator asks for the .TFT-File (select the one you downloaded from xperiafirmware.com) and for the SuperSU-ZIP-File (select the one downloaded from chainfire)
11) Select in the "Include"-field: "Kernel"; "FOTA-Kernel"; "Modem" and "LTALable", also "Sign ZIP" and "Legacy Mode"

18) Click on the "Flash"-Button and wait until it's done (sometimes the flashtool has problems with the files - dont worry: shutdown the FlashTool and retry it once more)
19) Unplug the mobilephone from the USB-Cable, start it and follow the instructions
20) After having prepared the mobilephone go to "kingroot.net/wap/download" and download KingRoot (sometime trouble with the site, try it once more)

25) In the Terminal Emulator App enter "su" for gaining "root"-access ("Enter" obviously), than enter "sh /sdcard/mrw/root.sh" and wait until it finish (it will open SuperSU)
26) Actualize the file as requested by SuperSU and, after having had success, reboot your mobilephone
27) Install a Root-Checker-App from Google Play Store and control, if you see a window from "SuperSU", otherwise repeat the last steps

29) Shut down your mobilephone. Afterwards hold the "Volume-Up"-Button while plugging in the USB-Cable (it shows only a black screen) and connect it to the Computer
30) Check if you have installed all fastboot drivers for your device, then open the "Command Line" of your Computer "as Administrator" and enter: "fastboot flash boot (path-to-the-file-downloaded-in-the-last-step)/TWRP-KK-T2_DUAL-V3.img" and click obviously "Enter"
31) Now unplug your mobilephone, than hold the "Volume-down"-Button and the "Power"-Button at the same time: TWRP-Recovery will start
32) Select "Wipe", than "Advanced Wipe", than select "intern. memory", "dalvik", "cache", "data" and "system"
33) Swipe to Wipe
34) Go to TWRP's home (twice times the "back"-Button) and select "Install", than "external SD-Card" and select "flashable-prerooted.zip" and confirm the warning, than SWIPE to INSTALL (flashing)
35) Wipe the Dalvik-Cache
36) Reboot into System and follow your mobilephone's instructions
37) Install a Root Checker App from Google Play Store and control if it's rooted, afterwards install the backup of your mobilephone made at the beginning
38) Install "Titanium Backup" and disinstall (after having done a backup of the app you want to delete) Apps you do not want
39) Install "Link-to-SD" from GooglePlay, prepare your external SD-Card with a partition manager (using your Computer) and copy all possible apps completly to the SD-Card

Well my friend, first at all, this is a awsome guide, it really help me to load the 5.1.1 on my SP. I Must said that even if this looks
overwhelming at the begining, it's pretty easy to do it.
Just for the FeedBack, this method works in:
T2 Ultra D5306 Single SIM, TELCEL.
I use the US CUSTOM Stock ROM 5.1.1 ( 19.4.A.0.182 ), if ask for the FTF, look at the FTF MEGAPOST.
Thanks to @rituraj_singh for find this method and @theokon to make the Easy-Mode Guide.
This thread must being Sticky.
PS: You have to add one step: When you reboot after the Flash, it can take a while in start the smartphone, It is to prevent panic if they see it takes a lot time to start, they might think it is bricked and try to restart it. :good:

This works great for rooting the phone (D5322) but for me link2sd doesn't read the 2nd partition and keeps giving me unable to mount errors.

You got the error when you try to mount on /dev/block/mmcblk1p2 ? it and said that the mount fail?
I had that error as well, maybe you have to try this @virgilone2:
1.- Uninstall the Link2SD.
2.- Install the SD MAID and run it, clean it up.
3.- Reinstall the Link2SD.
4.- Install the Recovery (I use this) [ XZDualRecovery 2.8.21 ] or the same you use in the guide.
5.- Run the Recovery, and go to Wipe > Advance Wipe > Davik Cache, Swipe to Wipe, after it ends go to Reboot > System.
6.- Before your smartphone start as usual, going to pop one little window with a counter, wait to end (Maybe take a while).
7.-Run you Link2SD, it have to Mount the ext2 partition and ask for reboot, if isnt the case, just recreate the mount script.
8.- Enjoy your Link2SD in Lollipop 5.1.1 :good:
This works for me, i hope works for you as well

Windows 10 Driver Problems
When having updated to Windows 10 driver problems could happen.
When entering "fastboot devices" in your computer's terminal and nothinh happens it is like this.
You can solve this easily:
1) Plug in your phone in fastboot mode into the computer (Volume Up + Plug-In of the USB-cable)
2) Go to the"Devices manager" (or called simular, as I don't know how to translate it correctly), where you will find the unknown S1 fastboot driver.
3) Download the official Sony flashing tool "EMMA" and reinstall the "Android Studio" in order to get the correct drivers
4) For security download also the "Universal ADB Drivers Package" from chip.de and install it
5) Back in the Device Manager reinstall the correct driver selecting it from the drivers list (!): Sony SA0110 - ADB Interface driver

Well thanks!! Links needed to perform the steps suggested are everywhere in the realm of Internet. Uploading same thing again and again is waste of space,data and everything. Hope you understand.
Ftf can be downloaded through xperi-firm and recovery can be downloaded from nut's Xperia files website. SuperSU is already available in more than 1000 places on Internet. And prf creator is created by a certain developer which is already available on xda. So reposting his item might be considered as kinda theft/plagiarism. And this is already mentioned in this post that it's a sequel of previous post. So please do your own bit of work/home work before posting negative comments.

This post is a sequel of previous post. To perform the steps mentioned you need to be on earlier versions of Android. Like 5.0.2 or earlier. And recovery must be installed in that. If you're on 5.0.2 follow my post about how to root on 5.0.2.

How To Guide [Guide] Xiaomi Mi Pad 5 MIUI12/13 ROOT Step-by-step - Pass SafetyNet, Widevine L1

Everything you do, you do at your own risk. I'm not responsible for all damages, this can also lead to loss of warranty.
Hi,
Probably many of you know how to do a Magisk install without TWRP, but this guide is for people who don't know and don't want to mess things up.
I will try to show you step by step how to do it.
Many thanks to:

Leave them a nice feedback
!!! Before we start make sure your device is unlocked, if you don't know how to do it below is link to official Xiaomi guide !!!
https://c.mi.com/thread-2262302-1-0.html
Requirement
Xiaomi Mi Flash ver. =>3-14-0 - Needed to install all adb drivers Download
ADB & Fastboot tools - Could be the one built into Mi Flash tool I'll use this to make it simple
Magisk =>24.2 - This software is base of our rooting process Download
SafetyNet Fix => 2.2.1 (Zygisk) - Needed to backdoor SafetyNet fail check, at the moment it is only working method for Mi Pad 5 Download Make sure you download the Zygisk version!
Boot.img - You can download from official MIUI website full flashable rom and separate boot.img file from there, or use my if your Miui version is China 13.0.5, EEA 13.0.3, Global 13.0.1
China 13.0.5​EEA 13.0.3​Global 13.0.1​​​Installation
To make it easier, Green color mean what you need to do on Tablet, Orange on PC
Unzip Mi Flash tool
Open folder and run XiaoMiFlash.exe, if window "Driver" won't pop-up click on the Driver tab and then "Install" button and close all windows.
Connect your tablet to computer, when your tablet ask how you want use USB, choose File Transfer/Android Auto
Copy to internal storage Magisk-v****.apk, safetynet-fix-v****.zip and boot.img
Open File Manager on your tablet find a folder where you copied all files, and install Magisk
Open Magisk app, and click on Install in section Magisk, then select "Select and Path a File", after that find your boot.img file and click on it
Click "LET'S GO" button on the right side and wait until process will be finished
On your computer in the tablet's storage window, go to the file specified in the application probably /Download/magisk_patched-*****
Copy this file to a subfolder of Mi Flash on your computer, exactly to MiFlash2020-3-14-0\Source\ThirdParty\Google\Android and change the name of this file to boot.img
Open PowerShell/Windows Terminal in this folder (Hold Shift + Right click -> Open PowerShell window here)
Make sure your tablet have enabled USB debugging in Developer options Setting -> Additional settings -> Developer options -> USB debugging
Turn off your tablet, then hold down Power and VOL- until the screen lights up, then release power button, if Fastboot appears, everything went fine
Go back to your Terminal window and type to check if your computer see your tablet
Code:
./fastboot.exe devices
If you see answer "******** fastboot" it mean there is communication between PC and Tablet
Next type this command to flash patched boot image
Code:
./fastboot.exe flash boot boot.img
Next type this command to reboot your device
Code:
./fastboot.exe reboot
Restart can take a longer time than normal
Open Magisk app and check status of Magisk, if you see for exaple "Installed 24.2 (24200)" everything went fine
Open Settings in right corner of app and in section App click on Hide the Magisk app then type name for hidden app, it will ask to install new app so do it
Open again Magisk app and open Settings in section Magisk enable Zygisk (Beta) and Enforce DenyList
Click on Configure DenyList than click on three dots in right corner and uncheck Show system apps
Search for all the apps in the list below and check them. It is important to click on their name to see all modules, once you have done this click on the box to activate all of them
Code:
Google
Google Assistant (I have two)
Google Pay
Google Play services
Google Play Store
After that reboot your tablet, and open again Magisk app
On the bottom click on Modules
Click on Install from storage button and find file safetynet-fix-v*******.zip, than click on it
After that reboot your device one more time
After reboot open Android Settings go to Apps and Unhide system services than find and clear all data of Google Play services and Google Play Store
Reboot tablet last time
If you have reached this point it means that everything has gone correctly, probably for about 3 hours you will still not be able to install Netflix and some banking applications but after this time everything will be back to normal, this is because Google's servers have detected that Magisk has been installed but that the application has been changed and Zygisk has been enabled so at the next check it notices that everything is Ok and gives access back.
Quick explaination what happend here:
Magisk has been installed and device is Rooted
The application has been changed and hidden
Zygisk has been activated and hidden from Google services
SafetyNet-fix was installed, which restores the functionality of SafetyNet and Widevine L1, which is blocked after the installation of Magisk and unlocked Bootloader

Hello,
(I use google translate).
Thanks for your method. Before using it, I would like to ask you a few questions.
I have already rooted a few devices (mipad 1, mi phone, htc...) with my macbook and twrp.
The adb files are already installed on my mac.
1) once the pad 5 is rooted, should I, like on my phone, patch the new boot.img file with each update?
2) Could I install the twrp application afterwards to be able to do a complete backup of the system and possibly install a version of lineageos later?
3) Is there a version of miflash unlock tool for mac os x?
4) Should I register or register on the xioami site before unlocking the boot?
Thank you in advance for your method and your answers.

Hi Nux01,
1. Unfortunately yes, TWRP isn't supported for Pad 5 yet.
2. It won't work, TWRP app is only making a request to TWRP custom recovery, until it doesn't exist you can't even install custom ROM
3. It is, but i didn't test it yet on Pad 5, and I don't know if it will work with new decides because last release is from 20.07.2020.
https://github.com/francescotescari/XiaoMiToolV2/releases
4. Yes, you need Xiaomi account, also your device has to be logged in, and registered to unlock, Xiaomi made complete guide how to do this, link is on the top of this post.

Hello,
Thank you for your quick reply.
The latest version of Mitool does not work. On the other hand, with regard to version 20.7.21, it's OK.
What does it mean: "I do not know if it will work with new decides".
And to unlock the bootloader, I have to use the Xiaomitool V2 application?
Thanks again.

I mean it's quite old release so it may not work with current unlock bootloader process on new devices like a Xiaomi 12, Xiaomi Pad 5 etc. I can't promise it won't brick your device, only confirmed method is by official Xiaomi tool.

Thank you
I'll wait a little bit before rooting my tablet.
Have a nice day.

Followed the instruction, worked like a charm. Although I had unknown "chinese sings" errors with the driver install it worked. By the way there is a newer version of the flashing tool.
Thanks for the effort of writing this down!

Hello,
I just managed to unlock the bootloader of my tablet "Pad 5".
I tried under Mac and Linux with Xiaomitool V2 without success (error 20036 and 20045).
I also tried with VirtualBox who did not recognize the tablet.
I succeeded with VMware and Windows 7 by testing different drivers and it worked.
I just root the tablet with Magisk.
On the other hand, is there the equivalent of TWRP to make a complete system backup. Apart from Titanium and MyBackup.
Thanks for your help.

thanks dude.
didn't try this yet, just wondering.
can't i just flash recovery and then flash magisk.apk?
thanks

You can update, but after that you need root again but with boot.img from 13.0.2

How to get the boot.img 13.0.2? I checked the 3GB Firmware and only found vendor_boot.img. Is it the same thing?

Never mind. I got the boot.img from here: https://miuirom.org/tablets/xiaomi-pad-5

Hey there.
I have done everything above and i MIGHT have some problem. The problem with my problem is that its not really reproducable easily even for me.... Weird, I know!
Lets go into details:
Issue description: When I reboot my tablet it goes into "MIUI Recovery" window, on which I am offered to reboot the device or clean.... And when I reboot it goes back to the recovery screen again. Like a loop-hole.
....
But then if I leave it untouched for several minutes it reboots itself and launches the system properly finally...
When did it start: It first started after I performed this step:
24. Click on Install from storage button and find file safetynet-fix-v*******.zip, than click on it
25. After that reboot your device one more time
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
When I finally landed in the system I of course continued and performed further steps. After another reboot in step 27 the same thing happened but much, much longer.
I thought it somehow self fixed and works - once I am in the system. Right? So I did a reboot to test it. And no... recovery screen again for another 20 or so minutes until finally MIUI loaded fully.
Now I am afraid to turn off / reboot my tablet... I am afraid it might never finish booting next time.
Any ideas whats wrong and how to fix this weird and irregular behaviour?
My details:
Device: Xiaomi Pad 5 6/256gb
Original system was Chinese. I have reinstalled to Global one a version ago.
MIUI version currently running: 13.0.3(RKXMIXM)
Android version: 11 RKQ1.200826.002
Magisk version: 25.1 (25100) (32)
Magisk Modules: Universal SafetyNet Fix v2.2.1 (yes I made sure to download around Zygisk section)
Anything else I shall provide?

I also have this module installed without problems, as there is no recovey for Pad5, it is a good idea to install in magisk the module Magisk Bootloop Protector, which serves exactly to prevent what you are afraid that happen with your tablet
