I have straight talk (at&t sim), and I recently purchased the unlocked Pixel 2 XL 64 GB from the google store, and it will be delivered Tuesday, Jan 2. I've been studying the forums to be prepared to go to work on the pixel once I receive it. I need to unlock the hot spot function, and that is my sole purpose for being on here. I've read a few tutorials, but it all seems like a different language to me. I rooted and flashed my Galaxy note 2 with a custom rom years ago, and so it has been a while since I've even rooted a phone. I am completely lost with what is going on now present day. I really hate to brick a brand new phone, so I'm nervous about using the posted guides. Its not that I cant follow the instructions, I just don't like doing something when I don't even understand the terminology. Anyone willing to work one on one with me in a couple days?
Can definetly help with rooting and unlocking bootloader no prob just quote me
Cheers ?

It's a module in Magisk. I installed the tether zip and have been using as a hotspot for my tablet.

Hello. I've been reading threads for hours trying to figure out how to update TWRP on my n900t and getting mixed answers. Right now I have version 2.3.6.1 and I want to update it do to a bad bootlooping experience I had today. Can anyone help a guy out on this fine Thanksgiving day?
I just don't know if I just use Odin to install a newer version over the older one or if theres more to it then that. I usually just go with my gut but after being stuck in a bootloop for most of the day until someone helped me on here (thanks again!) I really want to be sure. Might be a "noob" question but at least I'll be a noob with a working note 3 and that's cool with me! Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Also, can anyone tell me where to find the latest version of twrp for the n900t? Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving...
Thanks..…...

Odin works. You can also just use goomanager.

I have the sm-900t , and I've been hard bricked for a month, because of twrp and I followed the site instructions. If you like your phone, unroot and go stock, an enjoy the phone as/is until all unbrick/etc methods are posted and confirmed. You've been warned....
For others who want to know a different method, install Goomanager from play store and you can install the latest version for your device from there.
Hey guys, I searched hard but still I could not a link for Nexus 7 lte 2013 4.4.3 ROOT?First of all ist 4.4.4 out for LTE version?kindly put the link up here if there is any.
Thank you so much in advance.
Unlock your bootloader, fastboot flash a custom recovery, flash the supersu.zip on the recovery... I think you're on the wrong thread by the way...

You were able to find this forum, you should be able to find a guide to unlock and root a Nexus. Try the General subforum.
I asked for the link not for your opinion.I am still not able to find the link, somebody please send the link rather than just talking like the other person above.

I got this link but she says its for Wifi model , but mine is LTE model and the build version is the same, do you guys think this link will work fine for my LTE model?
Have you tried towelroot? Or even skipsofts android unified toolkit works awesome too

People like you don't deserve help. If you can't find it yourself, and you're rude like that to a person who is telling you how it is, you won't even know what to do with root once you have it. Toolkits and tutorials are widely available and in the time you spend moaning and whining, you could have done yourself the favor of learning and searching. You should instead ditch the Nexus and go back to your iSheep device.

How about you stop being helpless? Anyone who can find this forum can find a guide to unlock and root a Nexus device. Guess what? There's been 8 Nexus mobile devices and each and everyone has been unlocked and rooted in the exact same manner. If you ask for advice and can't take it, don't bother asking.
But since you need someone to hold your hand, maybe videos will be best: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2381698. Wanna guess where I found these? In the General subforum for the Nexus 7 2013. If that doesn't help, maybe this link will help: http://www.lmgtfy.com/?q=nexus+7+2013+bootloader+unlock+root
Thank you so much for the link and I will check those links for sure.this is what I was expecting from u in the first place.and yeah henceforth I will try finding these links in the concerned department.
Thank you so much.

the thing is I could have found those links but these links are for both wifi and LTE models right?this is my biggest worry.

I would really like to see devs work on this one. I ended up getting this phone because i was a few bucks short of getting the V40. Having the Hi-Fi audio DAC really makes music sound better.
But honestly it's not even close to competing with V4A. Which i guess now i know for sure, i NEED this on my phone.
I would love to root my phone one day just for that. As long as it's stable and works good for that (And preferably Magisk and Adaway as well..) I need it done.
Hi I am interested in this service. I will be buying one in a few days and would like to have this service done. Can anyone pm me? Seems I can't.

haha he is 100% legit and a nice guy. out of Vietnam I believe.IF i need to i have plenty of screenshots and also video of the entire process however teamviewer is needed for him to do it. have ADB and drivers installed already. and have the firmware both oreo and Pie downloaded before starting with him. He uses a Octoplus Pro box and hooked me up. Very fair $20 for permanent Bootloader Unlock. I mean common.... great deal. GaihPhapAndroid. PM if any Questions.

Hi all, I have finally be able to get my hands on a non Verizon unlocked pixel 3xl and there seems to be a ton of information on the site for rooting the pixel; but I am feeling the overload. Could someone please point me to a post on the steps to root the pixel. I have seen several old posts and new and some make sense, some don't, and most are for prior versions of Android.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
