and
do it on your own risk, I will not be responsible if you brick your phone
Here is the detailed guide and collection of stock and all custom recoveries for YU Yureka and detailed guide to Root YU Yureka without changing Stock Recovery
Requirements
1. YU Yureka (obviously) with USB Data cable
2. PC / Laptop (Having Windows installed at least Windows 7 or above)
3. Drivers (Windows Automatically detect and install the required drivers)
4. ADB & Fastboot binary package that can be downloaded from XDA 15 seconds ADB Installer v1.4.2']http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979
5. Custom Recovery (Anyone in which you are interested CWM, PhiZ, TWRP)
6. Latest SuperSU.zip file to root your phone
Warning: This process may delete all data stored in internal storage so better backup all the files stored in internal storage.
Step One
Enable USB Debugging on your device you can just follow these steps:
Go to Settings> About phone and keep taping on build number at least 7 times or till it appears "You are a developer now",
Now again go to settings>developer option (only after the previous step it will be enabled)> check/select USB debugging.
Step Two
Unlock your bootloader to flash custom recovery and root.
Here is the process
1. Download the adb & fastboot binary package and install it.
2. Put your phone into FASTBOOT mode by following anyone from below methods :
Method 1 (easiest)
-------------------
a. Power down phone
b. Plug USB cable to your PC
c. Press and hold Vol Up button and plug other end of USB to your device, soon you will see the fastboot screen.
(or without plugging USB Cable, Press and Hold Power and Vol Up buttons simultaneously, until you see the screen
"FASTBOOT MODE"
Method 2
---------
a. While your phone is Power On, plug USB Data Cable with PC and Phone (USB Debuging must be Enable)
b. Open Command Prompt on your PC (with Administartor rights) and type the following command
adb -s 0x1ebf devices
You will get results something like that :
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
List of devices attached
3a289c2 device
*Note : If you get "authorization message" then look on your mobile screen and authorize your PC and run the command again.
c. Now note down the device no. (for e.g. in above "3a289c2") and type the following command
adb -s 3a289c2 reboot bootloader
[*Note replace the device id with your id (here 3a289c2), that you got in last command]
Now your phone must be booted into fastboot mode. A screen with "Fastboot Mode" should be appear on your phone.
3. Device drivers will get installed by windows (please wait for the driver installation to complete)
4. After driver installation is done go to the folder where you have extracted the package
5. Now open elevated DOS command prompt (terminal) on your PC and go into the same folder where you saved the recovery file
(*Note : to start command prompt directly from desired folder, while holding the Shift Key Right Click on folder and select start "open command window here")
6. Type the following command to check if the device was detected in fastboot mode
fastboot -i 0x1ebf devices
you should get output like : 2a25d00 fastboot
if you don't get similar output it means that the drivers weren't correctly installed or the device wasn't connected properly
7. If the output is similar to above then run the following command:
fastboot -i 0x1ebf oem unlock
you should get output something like :
.....
OKAY [ 0.003s]
finished. total time: 0.004s
8. Now your bootloader is now unlocked.
*Note : if you want to re-lock your bootloader again (for warranty on any other reason), again boot into fastboot mode and this time type the following command and enter
fastboot -i 0x1ebf oem lock
Step Three
Boot your phone into recovery (temporarily or permanently) and root your phone
1. Download SuperSU.zip and put it on root of your internal or external SD card
2. To load custom recovery (CWM / TWRP / PhiZ) temporarily, now type this command in terminal :
fastboot -i 0x1ebf boot CWM_6.0.5.1_recovery-yu.img
*Note 1 : if you want to flash the custom recovery permanently then us the following command
fastboot -i 0x1ebf flash CWM_6.0.5.1_recovery-yu.img
*Note 2 : if your download custom recovery is named differently (here CWM_6.0.5.1_recovery-yu.img) then while writing the above commands you need to put the name of the recovery same as as your saved file name (anyone CWM / Phiz / TWRP)
3. Done ! You loaded custom recovery temporarily, if command used with "boot" hence to root your phone, proceed to next section (step 5).
or
If you flashed recovery permanently, using command with "flash" then boot your phone into recovery. To do so, you have Two options
i) type the following command and press enter : adb -s 3a289c2 reboot recovery
or
ii) power off your phone, after then press and hold "Vol up+ Vol down + Power" buttons simultaneously to boot into custom recovery.
Now to root your phone proceed with next section (step 5).
Root your phone
5. To gain root access, flash SuperSu.zip that is stored on your internal or external SD card (in step 1)
6. Choose reboot phone and enjoy rooted phone with stock or custom recovery !
Special Note 1
I didn't tested, but came to know that root doesn't effect OTA update on Yureka.
You can get OTA updates with root but after the OTA update is flashed you will loose root access. To keep it or to avoid this please go to System Settings -> Developer Options -> UNTICK -"Update CM Recovery" (update recovery while installing system updates)
Even though if someone want to go back to Stock recovery, then download the official stock recovery (link no. 6 above) and flash it using command in fastboot mode (second command in step 2 under head "STEP THREE")

Few errors noted:
1. You can't say flashing recovery when you are booting it.
2. In step 3 point 3 is not valid because when your command is to boot it will automatically boot into recovery you need not use combination keys.
3. Last point vender id is wrong !!!
Few suggestions:
1. It feels like you have not tested this by yourself
2. There is already a guide for "rooting without flashing recovery". Search before posting.

Dear aaskking
Thanks to inform. Here is the corrections
1 & 2 - Tutorial updated with "boot" and "flash" commands separately.
3 + Vendor ID is correct nothing wrong in it.
4 - I already tested all those procedures and commands. I never post anything without testing.
5 - Yes, I also seen that available guide, but that is not so much detailed and also required files links are not provided.
Anyway, thanks for your suggestions.

Great mate cheers just checked and tried that ota updates are available and work.. On stock recovery... Locked bootloader and with root..
Achieved this by downgrading to the very first cm11 firmware and got then rooted it and locked the bootloader then I just booted it and got the incremental update .. Downloaded and flashed .. Works perfectly.. Root not lost due to the untick in dev options..

Thanks again Arjun Singh, for confirming OTA updates are working.
I am already on Stock ROM & recovery {rooted} and tried the same procedure {locked the bootloader}, but no updates for me.
Is updates are really there, or something wrong with me ?

I am simply unable to get the device listed in command prompt after fastboot mode is enabled. my phone has option to boot into fastboot mode in power options. i tried that option, i tried using command to boot into fastboot. But somehow, when phone is in fastboot mode, it does not get detected by fastboot application (even though windows installs drivers successfully).
I have tried 3 different laptops. All had same problem. No idea how to solve this.

Ahahahaah... I know just the way... Do not reboot via adb ...
Switch off your phone remove your battery and put it back in do not turn it on.. But connect your USB cable and at the same time hold the power up or maybe down button .. Voila your in fastboot which will get detected .. Don't forget to use the vendor id.

I tried this method but phone does not get detected in fastboot mode at all. I have drivers installed for all different modes I connect my phone as. No luck at all.
Also, weird thing is, I have an option to directly go to fastboot mode from the power menu.

Jitendra Garg
Your driver's are not installed
As there is no special drivers setup, so connect your PC with Internet then plug your phone and let Windows install drivers automatically.

Yes, Magisk works on this. I am using it right now.
You can uninstall any app you want without any side effects as long as the app is not an essential part of system.
For example, Firsttouch Launcher, Swiftkey Keyboard, Email, Amazon Kindle, App Center, App Bazaar, Chaatz, Hangouts etc.
You can use Debloater.
It is a magisk module you can use by terminal emulator to remove bloatware.

Have you installed the drivers I mentioned or some other ones?
Btw, are you running adb and fastboot in Windows or Linux?

Thanks You for this post.

WHen I get to step "K" the device simply reboots fully back into normal OS
then further steps are not recognized if I do not keep putting "adb" in front
like it will not recognize fastboot devices
but it will recognize "adb fastboot devices"
---------- Post added at 08:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:13 AM ----------
Not sure if I got the adb drivers right because I did not see any "koushes adb" I mesn the site was clearly koushes but no where did I see a download names or called "koushes adb" Am I missing something?

I got TWRP recovery installed created by you. Big thanks !
I'm having issues in installing magisk via zip as well as patched boot image. Was the process smooth for you?

I got it to work by editing boot.img.

Do you have any roms which can be ported to Q394 ?

Total Nub's guide to rooting Qmobile Q Infinity & Micromax Canvas Inifinity

After failing some 1-click rooting methods, for the first time I tried to do it the hard way.
That turned out to be a pretty easy way thanks to some handy links to drivers and other files I found.
Infinity thanks to the thread I found platform-tools from and the website called "getdroidtips" for the Custom TWRP for the HS2.
NOTE: THIS GUIDE WILL WIPE YOUR DEVICE SO BE PREPARED
Standard warning: FOLLOW THIS GUIDE AT YOUR OWN RISK. REMEMBER, AS PER MY NAME I AM A TOTAL NUB. I DO NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR PHONE MALFUNCTIONING, BRICKING, BLOWING UP OR DROWNING IN COOKING OIL (rip my Elephone S7)
Pastebin code for missing links: F2RGqM1A
1) Preparation
Download the latest Flashable.Zip from [ ]
Place SuperSu.zip in your sd card or internal storage
Enable Developer Options by going to Settings -> "About Phone" -> Click "Software Version" 7-8 times

Enable USB Debugging
Shutdown your phone by holding the power button
Boot into fastboot by holding the Volume Up key + Power Button
Press Volume Down key to get into fastboot
2) On your Windows PC:

check inside Portable Devices or Android Devices for your phone's name
or look for Android Bootloader Interface
if it's not there, it might be named something else, with an icon that has a yellow triangle inside it.
Right click it, Update Driver
> Browse my computer for driver software
> Let me pick from a list of available drivers on my computer
> select Android Bootloader Interface
to check if you are connected, type "fastboot devices" in cmd and you'll see a device code
3) Unlocking Bootloader
In cmd, enter the following commands:
Code:
D:
cd D:\Downloads\platform-tools
fastboot oem unlock-go
THIS STEP WILL WIPE YOUR DEVICE DATA
wait for restart
4) Booting into TWRP
Go to device Settings again and ensure OEM Unlocking and USB Debugging are still Enabled. Reboot into fastboot.
In cmd:
Code:
fastboot boot twrp-3.1.1-0-20171128-UNOFFICIAL-HS2.img
(In case above cmd line doesn't work, type "fastboot boot twrp" and press Tab)

Did you try "flashboot boot twrp..." like in my guide or "flashboot flash twrp..."?
And which twrp image did you use?
In any case, if you can still get to the fastboot screen, try booting with the twrp image in Step 4 above (download links in the pastebin link)

Hi, "flashboot boot twrp" wasnt working at all, so i tried "flashboot flash twrp" and all i have is a bootloop. So after flashing recoveru i booted my phone to fastboot and run the command, " flashboot boot recovery recovery.img" where recovery is the custom recovery image and it booted into recovery. Then there is one more step to do that allowed me to finally boot into my os. Its working fine and i still have twrp installed on my phone

[root] redmi 4x root

Firstly this is my first helpful post so be gentle.
How to root the Redmi 4x
First off I am not accountable if your fry your device or shut down the power grid etc.
Alright. It took me some research and trial and error but I found the CORRECT way to root the Redmi 4x.
Needed files:
Lasted version of the magisk zip. DO NOT USE ANY VERSION OF SUPER SU. IT CAUSES BOOTLOOP.
TWRP for Redmi 4x
Lazy patcher.
Adb and fastboot files.
Step one:
Ensure your bootloader is unlocked. If not search XDA for a thread there are multiple threads showing you how to do it. Once that's done let's move on.
Step 2:
Alright let's get going with flashing TWRP first.
You need to enable developer options and enable USB debugging on your Redmi. To do that go to settings>about devices>scroll down>continually tap on MIUI version and a toast notification will tell you that you are now a developer>go to developer option under the more options tab and enable USB debugging.
Step 3:
Now that we've got USB debugging we can connect to Adb. Firstly download all aforementioned files and place them in the same folder as your Adb installation for ease of access. Now open up a command prompt in that folder by either typing "cmd" into the address bar or shift+right click and select open command window here. Now you need to connect your phone via USB to your computer and ensure it is connected by entering "adb devices" into the command window.
Step 4: commands
Here are the commands you will need to enter. I recommend making a backup of everything first.
Enter these commands
adb reboot bootloader
Fastboot flash recovery (put TWRPS full file name here including the .zip)
Wait for it to finish.
Now DO NOT BOOT TO SYSTEM.
Enter in fastboot reboot and hold volume up to enter recovery. If you boot to system it will remove twrp and you will have to reflash it.
Once in Twrp check the box to allow modifications and slide right.
Go to advanced and the ADB sideboard.
Now flashing magisk and lazy patcher.
Reconnect your phone to the computer and leave Twrp on sideload mode.
Enter this command
adb sideload (lazy patchers full file name here)
Now I made sure my phone still booted to system after this because every time I flashed SuperSU it would boot loop.
Once your back in sideload mode let's flash magisk.
adb sideload (magisks full file name here).
Once it's done select reboot to system from Twrp and enjoy your root!!
Again I say do not use any flashable root other than magisk. I don't know if I had a specific problem but every single one I tried resulted in bootloop.

Question Root for OnePlus 9

I'm only used to using TWRP so I haven't done it any other way before, is there any easy methods to root the phone. I have tried with adb but I can never seem to copy files onto it.

Have you read any of the other threads??

Yeah I've tried one of the threads that includes ADB, is there any other way of doing it?

No.
You can follow my guide here or visit the thread linked above and use fastboot to boot from the rooted boot image. It's really not that difficult as long as you follow the directions properly.
You need to have unlocked your bootloader first but that's always the case.

Hi my friend you just need to unlock bootloader and flash magic zip with the help of fastboot link for magic is below the text. If you do not know how then I can just guide you. Install magic apk v22. Open settings and then select about phone, then press a lot of times where it says build number. Now open developer options and enable usb debugging, oem unlock and advance booting. Now hold down the power button, now comes any choice options select fastboot. Once you are booted into fastboot mode, connect your phone to your PC. Install adb and fastboot tools if you do not already have. Open the folder with fastboot and adb and then press at the top, write cmd. Now a cmd window will appear. Write (fastboot devices), to make sure your phone is connected properly. Now it's time to unlock bootloader. Write the following, (fastboot oem unlock) you now chess like success full unlocked. A warning will appear on your phone if you are sure you want to confirm unlocking. Press yes. (if your touch does not work then use the volume buttons to select up and down. Once you have selected, press the power button and done. Now your phone will reset itself. Set your phone quickly and from select frp lock. Activate fastboot again and open cmd with fastboot Flash now magically via fastboot and reboot.Enjoy your root.
