I Have a new Remi Note Pro Is it worth trying to Root it and risk bricking it
I don't think it is worth rooting it right now. I've just bought one and upgraded to MIUI 11/Android 10. The only thing I miss is TWRP and I will wait until there is an official version. Nova Launcher is great and Blokada does a very good job of blocking ads. I will not root until the risk of bricking the device is gone.
Hi, i needed the call recorder possibility, this is why i have rooted my rn8p.
Don't forget to disable avb 2.0 in twrp, this is the only mistake i done
I rooted using LR.Team's TWRP... no problem @ all..
rooted 3 same phones already using this method:
1. Unlock
2. Flash MIUI 11 - Android 10 upgrade
3. Flash LR.Team's TWRP - https://mega.nz/folder/cMAT3Q4b#7CbPV7sbEuSEdP7cehXJ-w
4. Go to Advanced > Close AVB: check all
5. Go to Advanced > Disable replace TWRP
6. Go to Advanced > Flash Root/Magisk
7. Reboot to System - Upgrade Magisk within the Magisk Manager
8. PROFIT!! - No brick at all, the key is LR.Team's TWRP
I flashed Indonesia ROM (V11.0.2.0.PGGIDXM) on my phone to get call recording, which is now working. Is the root procedure the same for this ROM? Same TWRP?
Thanks.

I rooted my device just to use Dolby Atmos & Viper 4 Android which works perfectly. I also tried Miui 12 China beta rom & came back to global stable rom safely. I bricked my device multiple times but fixed my self without any issue.

Does NFC and VoLTE still work after rooting? I'm afraid to root if I lose NFC functionality.

NFC It still works, the problem is the payment environment, but it is solved by hiding the root with magisk for applications that use the payment environment

To me just to get rid of ads (AdAway) and call recorder (Default MIUI Apps) among other few things it is worth getting.

Thank you for this! I followed your instruction and successfully rooted my device! But i have one question though, can we still downgrade to Android 9 from A10 rooted or will it brick my device?

That's the problem. I wanted to rollback to Android 9 because a lot of people told me that it was safe and I also wanted to flash that lk preloader from Redmi note 8 Megathread but the problem is I already updated my phone to A10. Since I am already using A10 and rooted, I might try to reflash A10 stock rom first before rolling back to A9. Thanks for the info though

Hey guys.
I own LG G3 for about year and a half after using rooted Galaxy nexus for few years. Very satisfied!
I want to unlock, root and flash custom rom to update my device to Android 6 and enjoy some root features I miss.
My device:
LG G3, D855 (32GB), 5.0.
Build Nubmer: LRX21R.A1447078419
Software Version: V21a-SEA-XX
I saw many ways to root, which one is the best? (using PC, not ADB stuff..)
Do I still have to reset my whole data for rooting?
Is "bootloader unlocking" thing still exists?
Important things to backup before doing anything?
1. You can use "One click root" to root your device , This is the best way
2. you don't need to reset your device
3. after you install SU download autorec from google play for D855 LP to install TWRP recovery
4. It's up to you , for me I have not , but for more safety do it.
Good luck

I have a OnePlus 5T locked and unrooted phone having OxygenOS 5.1.7 installed. I am new to rooting and related kinds of stuff. Can someone help me to give some instructions to install Magisk in my device? I know the below steps, but at the same time, I am having some questions in my mind.
1. Unlock bootloader - I saw some commands here to unlock bootloader - https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=74504347&postcount=4 - looks like these are outdated, last updated on Dec 2017. Are those work today also?
2. Install TWRP recovery - I heard that, OxygenOS 5.1.7 is having Project Treble supported. Can I use the same TWRP recovery mentioned in the above link?
3. Root using Magisk or SuperSU. What is the difference? What is systemless root? Anyway, I need to install Magisk Manager finally - Please suggest a way.
4. And the last one, How do I unroot my device if something goes wrong? Or is that possible?
5. I don't want to install any custom ROMs, I am fine with OOS.

1. Yes the unlock commands remain the same till date.
2. Use the latest bluspark twrp which has the treble support, link mentioned is fine and if you need the direct link, its here
3. Use the latest Magisk as SU is a dead project now.
4. Whenever you want to unroot just dirty remove/uninstall all the mods, dirty flash the latest stock rom > Factory reset in recovery and lock the bootloader. I did a post here for the 6T and it should work the same way on 5T.
5. You can stay rooted on OOS no need of custom roms any more :good:
Let me know if you want to know anything else, Thanks.

1.will I get official update from oneplus after my magisk root??
2.can I root my 5t with beta room ?
3.can I switch from beta to official and from official to beta once I rooted my device.
4.can I use confidential app like banking app.???

1. Yes, but your phone will download the whole firmware at each update instead of the ota.
2. Yes
3. Yep you can.
4. Yes of course, but some apps will detect root. So you will have to use Magisk Hide (inside the Magisk Manager) to hide root from these apps.
Note : I didn't use OOS anymore but it seems to me that OOS overwrites root everytime you update, so keep in mind that you will have to reflash it everytime

1- Yes, but you will recieve full sized zip (1.5+)GB automatically in rooted OOS. Incremental small sized ota won't work in case of root, and don't bother with it.
The downside of updating full whole zip is that you will loose root & twrp recovery after the update. So keep in mind, you will re-install both of them later.
2- I haven't tried beta, but i am sure yes
3- any switch between those requires clean flash in TWRP (wiping dalvik cache, cache, data, vendor and system). So, make sure to have backup in safe place.
4- yes, as long as you passed the safety net in Magisk. Magisk has a feature to hide root on certain apps of your choice, so you can use banking apps later
All my magisk installed whether in oos stable or custom roms, passed the safety net out of the box. So I haven't faced issues there.
Hi there!
I want to root my Redmi Note 8 Pro (which is already unlocked) but in most of the instructions I came across a requirement in order to do so is to be on A9.
My RN8PRO is on the european firmware 12.0.1.0 QGGEUXM so I downloaded the A9 european fastboot firmware V11.0.3.0.PGGEUXM | MIUI 11 from "xiaomifirmware.com".
I then downloaded MI FLASH PRO (v. 5.3.714.36) and I'm about to downgrade. Is there any pointer or further recommendation to follow in order not to screw things up (like any Anti-Rollback Protection that might block the smartphone)?
In Mi Flash Pro I should just click on the "Mi Flash" tab, then select the firmware downloaded (and extracted), hit "refresh", then "flash" and that's it right?
Thank you.

You don't need to downgrade to root, unless you want to use CWF recovery and ROMs.

Hi donkyshot, I didn't know that. But maybe I should be more specific: I wish to root with magisk so that I can use it's "hide root" function and use it for all the banking apps that just won't run on rooted devices.
Anyway I think it would be still wise to downgrade and put the preloader just to be safe in case I forget (I'm sure that I'll forget and having a rooted device will make me think that I can easily put a Custom rom down the road and I will brick the device), or also the preloader can be installed without having to downgrade?

Again, if you want to hide magisk you don't have to downgrade. It's working on A10.
Hiding magisk doesn't seem to work on all banking apps though.
Rooting is easy, and relatively safe as long as you follow the instructions, use correct A10 recovery and close avb.
Downgrading is risky too.
But you're right, the preloader only works on Android 9.
Remember if you'll update back to miui 11/12 android 10 you'll lose the preloader.
But if you'll decide later to just flash a custom rom it won't work with just the preloader, you'll need cfw too.
But yes it will save you from a total brick, as long as you don't flash miui rom or ota.
Read the cfw thread carefully https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-8-pro/how-to/guide-redmi-note-8-pro-megathread-t4056527
There have been reports of camera issues with latest models because of firmware and the preloader.
Don't flash or update up to the latest magisk 21, it's bootlooping on mediatek devices.
Good luck and happy flashing.

Hi there.
I'm sorry to bother you again, but during these days I read a lot of posts in different threads just to be more and more confused (some things I learned though ).
At a certain point I decided to follow your advice and just root my phone and not downgrade to A9 so to take the safest route (I'm fine using MIUI for the time being and don't need custom roms), but I'm not sure where to find a safe/trusted recovery for A10 since most of the instructions use recovery for A9.
Do you or anyone else have any tips?

Now I just have to investigate if I can use the app "Migrate" on the RN8PRO to restore all the app+data of my previous cell (Redmi Note 4x) that wasn't restored with Google backup and Xioami's "Mi Mover".
Since the "Migrate" app requires flashing the backup via TWRP and knowing that the RN8PRO is somehow picky I want to double check if it's possible, although I think that it should be fine.

Great. Don't have experience myself with migrate app, I'm using titanium.
European update 12.0.2.0 has dropped. I'll put steps later how to update through twrp without losing data.

That's very cool, but now I have doubt, updating via twrp is mandatory now that I have a rooted device (I don't think so, but I just want to be sure) or is it just because the update wasn't pushed via OTA yet?
I know that with CFW and the preloader is a whole different story, but it shouldn't be a problem to update via OTA on a rooted phone right?

Hi I just bought this phone and im on the latest A10 - MIUI global V12.0.2.0(QGGEUXM) firmware. I really want to root it, but after seeing all these posts about permanent hard bricks im pretty scared lol. So could anyone verify if the following steps are (still) correct?
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Flash this TWRP version in fastboot

3. Follow this guide to root with latest Magisk 20.4 (stable)
If I do this, there should be no chance of hardbrick? Should I change steps? Thanks in advance!

Edit: Can confirm this works for A10 - MIUI 12 global V12.0.2.0(QGGEUXM). Happy flashing!
Hi I just bought this phone and im on the latest A10 - MIUI global V12.0.2.0(QGGEUXM) firmware. I really want to root it, but after seeing all these posts about permanent hard bricks im pretty scared lol. So could anyone verify if the following steps are (still) correct?
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Flash this TWRP version in fastboot
3. Follow this guide to root with latest Magisk 20.4 (stable)

yes, this way can root it.
I did that too, but could not pass safetynet check. CTS fails.
Can not use Gpay and certain Banking apps

Download the full rom
I downloaded the full rom from Asus website, the update was fine just dropping it at the root of internal storage. My is a chinese converted to WW firmware/fingerprint. All working fine so far.
I wonder where the VOLTE settings are, I find strange they are making it available for some regions only. Why not just make it available to everyone in any region? I can;t get my head around why VOWIFI and VOLTE is taking so long to get sorted. My oneplus 5 had this working fine 3.5 years ago!

If you're tencent to global (converted).
-locked Bootloader
-finger print should be WW
And flash the Full ROM not OTA
my bootloader was unlocked. Fingerprint was converted to WW. Not gonna flash OTA again if i can rescue my device.
Should I lock bootloader always before doing update ? I prefer to use rooted for blocking ads and easy backup/restore for titanium backup.

Unlocked bootloader but not rooted you can update through local upgrade. If you're rooted just unroot then after update root again
Ok, flashed full rom over twrp and rooted. Everything seem's fine now. Just dont pass safetynet test.

NEVER lock the bootloader with TWRP installed.

No need to unroot to update, or remove twrp. There's a couple of options.
For all instances FULL zip is required, as far as I'm aware
1. For those of you that are only rooted: (Recommended to disable magisk modules) Download the full zip, move to root of internal storage and reboot. System will detect and prompt to update, click update. Wait until it finishes but DON'T click 'restart', instead, click 'restart later'. Go to Magisk manager. Click 'install' for Magisk. Click the last option 'install to inactive slot after OTA'. Click confirm force flash. Reboot when prompted. Done - root kept intact.
2. For those rooted with TWRP you can either; A)
- Disable all magisk modules;
- Put rom.zip, twrp installer.zip and magisk.zip on your internal storage;
or B)
If you want you can also update a stock rom from phone settings with local upgrade:
- Update the Rom WITHOUT REBOOT;
- Open Magisk Manager;
- Menu/modules/+ button/select the twrp installer.zip and flash it;
- Always in Magisk Manager, click on Install/Install/Direct Install;
- Again in Magisk Manager, click on Install/Install/Inactive Slot;
- Reboot.
For all instances FULL zip is required, as far as I'm aware
Thanks to @mauronofrio for A and B and for all his (or hers lol) efforts generally
