How to root?

Hi everyone
My phone model is xt2075-3,I want to root
Can I directly flash the latest magisk(20.4) to get root permission after unlocking BL?

I've succeeded in getting root.The steps are as follows
1.Download the twrp for your mobile phone,and magisk20.4.zip,magisk 7.5.1.apk
2.Visit Motorola official unlock website to unlock BL
3.You have 2 choice,A.boot on twrp one time;B.flash twrp;I choose A
4.Whatever your choose,in the twrp,install magisk zip,after done,reboot system
Enjoy root!

If you use the Magisk Manager to patch the boot image manually, and then flash that through fastboot - will that work also?
(My phone has yet to arrive so can't test this just yet...)

Update : i got the 8gb ram 128gb varient and i could boot into twrp from fastboot but i cannot flash replacing stock recovery nor i can see the internal or external memory due to decryption error
However, i basically unlocked boot loader and booted in fast boot then i flashed the patched boot.img ( installed magisk apk and added the stock boot.img inside the phone to patch it) then copy it back to pc and flashed it in fastboot mode and now i got root access
NOTE : if you happen to do something wrong you cannot use rescue and backup software to restore your phone to stock again ... flash stock boot.img in fastboot first so the software will recognize the phone back again

Get the full stock image by downloading rescue and smart assistant app from lenovo which supports moto phones ... Do login and get the fastboot rescue option while plugging your phone in the pc in fastboot mode .. then it will download it full firmware for your varient
Becareful that continue to flash the firmware will wipe your phone completely
After that get a copy of the boot.img file ... Copy it to the internal memory and install magisk manager apk from its official github site ... Now patch the boot.img you copied in your phone inside the magisk app then copy it back to your pc
Lear how to flash it from fastboot
Flash it
Done .. you are now rooted by patched boot.img with stock recovery !

Thank you for the answer but if I want to just root my phone I only need to flash magisk right? i don't need the patched boot.img?
sorry to bother you but the last phone I used supersu withouth flashing anything else than the recovery

I think the flash method fails because there is no partition called "recovery" - as an A/B device it looks like there are two:
Code:
nairo:/ $ ls -l /dev/block/by-name/ | grep recovery
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 1970-05-20 07:34 recovery_a -> /dev/block/sdd20
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 16 1970-05-20 07:34 recovery_b -> /dev/block/sdf20
if you have the Magisk zip file on the internal storage you can use the "fastboot boot twrp.img" method to flash it from there (for some reason TWRP can't see the SD card on my device)

Now for my question... my rooted (UK Retail) device has indicated that there is an OTA update:
I've tried using the method described here to restore the boot partition to stock so that it doesn't interfere with the process, but it fails (see attached images).
Does anyone know of a working method? I have downloaded the full (2+GB) update so am prepared to flash that (and restore everything else from backups) if necessary - but would rather not if it can be avoided...

Hi @xth88312 ,
can you give the link you used to download TWRP for Moto XT2075-3?

I unlocked my phone through the official Motorola site:
Unlocking the Bootloader | Motorola Support US
Visit the customer support page to view user guides, FAQs, bluetooth pairing, software downloads, drivers, tutorials and to get repair and contact us information.
motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com
I downloaded the latest Magisk and MagiskManager in the same directory from
Releases · topjohnwu/Magisk
The Magic Mask for Android. Contribute to topjohnwu/Magisk development by creating an account on GitHub.
github.com
I downloaded the original firmware from https://mirrors.lolinet.com/ and extracted the boot.img in the same directory, then issued, through the ADB connection:
Code:
adb install ./MagiskManager-*.apk
adb push ./boot.img /sdcard/Download/
(Replace the star as needed)
I opened MagiskManager app (you need to be connected to the Internet) and in the Magisk card I tapped Install > "Select and Patch a File". I browsed for and selected /sdcard/Download/boot.img and tapped "Let's go". A patched image /sdcard/Download/magisk_patched_*.img is created. Then, through the ADB connection, I issued:
Code:
adb pull /sdcard/Download/magisk_patched_*.img
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot devices
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched_*.img
fastboot reboot
At reboot, the phone was rooted.

it's best to go global first coming from tmo. No, as long as you don't do an ota on Global. so flash global then boot, then flash custom rom(following their guide).
If u lose service modem is provided (Just unzip) Bootloader fastboot command "fastboot flash modem modem.img
This of course is assuming u got unlock.bin and unlocked Bootloader

Here we go!
Welcome @gwolfu
Hopefully we don't need 11.2.7.7?? It's not out here in EU yet, what's the reason most of the custom roms seem to want the EU build by the way?

CRDroid, fantastic to see this here my favorite ROM since the days of my LG G3! Can't wait to try this out, will sadly be waiting till TWRP tho as I'd prefer to avaoid gapps. Unless there is any chance of a non gapps build also? Cheeky....!

I'll flash and report tomorrow .
post logs through here or telegram?

Since the instructions specify using fastboot (as well as sideloading the rom), that's not possible.

extract crdroid.zip content
extract boot.img from payload.bin file using payload dumper
install magisk apk on phone as any other apk (I know we are not rooted yet)
copy boot.img to internal phone storage
open magisk and click on top install button
choose "select and patch a file"
select the boot.img from internal storage
after done, copy magisk patched boot image from Download folder on phone storage, to PC
now on PC, reboot to bootloader and run

Question is there a concise guide to rooting android 12?

I'm not sure what changed, but I know what I used to do doesn't work anymore.
Either boot TWRP, flash TWRP from in TWRP, then reboot and flash magisk.
then, after an update, i'd go to magisk manager, install it, and reboot.
when that would mess up, i'd get the boot.img and patch it from the manager, then put it on my computer and go through the flashing process there (assuming there was no TWRP anymore)

you need to extract boot.img, patch it, temp boot it with fastboot and patch boot from magisk while booted

Cant go wrong with this. Simple and no nonsense advice

Use alpha magisk for patching boot.img
then fastboot boot patched boot
then direct install method from magisk

Need boot.img, vendor_boot.img and vbmeta if you want to use stable magisk. For me it worked fine on C39

Thanks. I think my problem was that I was still using 23

i used payload dumper to extract the images (boot, vendor_boot and vbmeta). i try to patch them in manager and it just gives me an error. am i out of luck?
i hope this image counts as evidence that i'm actually trying to figure this out rather than get spoon fed

Question How to root OnePlus 9RT 5G?

I just got my new Oneplus 9RT 5G. I searched a lot but unable to find a method to root it via TWRP.
Can anyone please share a link to TWRP recovery so that I can flash it and root it via Magisk?
I tried to unlock the bootloader by going to the fastboot mode but keep getting 'failed' message.

Use fastboot flashing unlock instead of oem unlock.

No TWRP for now. You should get boot.img from stock firmware, then patch it using Magisk Manager, then load the phone using patched boot.img, an then install magisk to the system

Yes, it is not available on site. If you have chinese firmware (ColorOS), you can get full rom from OTA servers. Even more, for the most recent versions I can provide ready to use boot.img. But for indian Oxygen full roms not availabe yet. You can try to dump boot.img from your phone using dd.

How do I do it? Please provide step by step process. I bought this phone in India and it's running Android 11 , Oxygen OS.

Well, looks like to dump boot.img you need root. Please try attached file (unzip it). Found it in TG, labeled as boot.img for indian Oxigen. Please note that you should NOT flash it to your device, so it should be safe enough. We will try to sideload it.
You already have installed fastboot to your PC, so I will skip this part.
To check boot.img
1. Place boot.img to your computer, to the same folder where you have fastboot installed
2. Reboot your phone to fastboot mode i.e with adb reboot bootloader
3. Do fastboot boot boot.img.
If phone will start normally, looks like boot is ok and you can use it to get rooted.
To install Magisk (get root)
1. Place boot image to phone.
2. Download Magisk and install it to the phone. Note that we use canary version of Magisk. Latest stable version doesn't work at least on chinese (ColorOS) version.
3. Start Magisk on a phone, press "Install" and choose "Select and Patch a File" (the only available option), select boot.img file.
4. Patched boot.img will be placed to Download directory named something like "magisk_patched*.img". Download this file back to PC, place to the same directory with fastboot.
5. Reboot your phone to fastboot mode i.e with adb reboot bootloader
6. Do fastboot boot magisk_patched*.img (change to correct name of file). Phone should start correctly.
7. Start Magisk again. Select "Install". This time all options should be available. Select "Direct Install (Recommended)".
8. At the end reboot and check if root is working.

Okay. Thanks a lot.
I checked the boot image, all the three step went absolutely fine.
To obtain Magisk, everything went well till step no. 5.
When I try to reboot with the patched image in the bootloader, the phone keeps booting in the bootloader itself. I also changed the name of the image from 'magisk_patched_bco6o' to 'bestimage', just to make sure that there aren't any special characters in the filename. Same. The phone kept booting in the fastboot mode using the image.
Now what should I do?
Edit.
I just updated the Magisk app directly from its UI. Now the phone booted fine using step 6. My device is rooted! Thanks a ton!

Okay. I'm connected to the internet and ensure that magisk has internet connectivity. I cannot see any packages to download and install. Is this normal in canary version or I have to do something about it?

Canary doesn't have internet repository. You should install modules manually. Please note that "Magisk Hide" is not available also and replaced by Zygisk function in settings. Basically it works similar to magisk hide.

What ROM version is it? Especially a build number. Want to know what version of Oxygen is elighble for rooting with provided boot.img.

Here's the build information

Okay.

Okay can I install a normal magisk app now since my device is already rooted?
Having a direct internet repository in magisk is quite convenient.
Another question. I want to install Lsposed on this phone to install GravityBox module. Now in my previous phone, (oneplus 5t running stock oxygen OS, Android 10) , I always used to keep a edxposed uninstaller zip file which helped in cases when there would be a bootloop after installing a module. I used to flash that zip in the TWRP, get back things to normal, and then uninstall a particular xposed module.
Now I don't have any TWRP on this phone. I don't have any custom recovery installed on this phone!
What do you recommend for doing xposed/lsposed/edxposed based flashing and module installation?

I can't say for sure it will not work. I just know stable version of Magisk DOESN'T work with 9RT chinese version (ColorOS). The chance to get it worked on OxigenOS is minimal as it looks for me. And what is happening with chinese phone with current magisk is bootloop. So I think it is better to not even try. At least while you don't have full ROM to recover.
Regarding absense of net repository in canary, there is a post from Magisk creator about it. Unfortunately, these functions will not back. I don't use many Magisk modules - just installed safetynet-fix and Systemizer manually.
Sorry, I don't have much experience with Magisk modules, the only recommendation for now is to not experiment too much while we don't have msm tool or at least full ROM.

Okay. And any comment on installing xposed? I don't have any TWRP or any custom recovery.

I didn't tried it, but please check threads of lsposed and EdXposed
Looks like both can be installed as Magisk modules, but needs Riru. Probably will give them a try later.

Thanks. I successfully installed latest Riru, Lsposed and GravityBox. All good so far.
Having issues with Viper installations. Will post about it in a separate thread.

I flashed safetynet fix and rebooted but I'm still not able to pass safetynet. Any solution?

After installing and activating safetynet fix you should clear data for Google Play Store and Google Play Services. Then open Play Store -> Settings -> About -> Play Protect certification. Should be "Device is certified"

Thank you very much for maintaining OrangeFox!
Since I'm new on an A/B device, I do have a question concerning installing magisk and keeping custom recovery.
As far as I understand, boot.img is modified by flashing orangefox.zip in recovery. What about magisk? Can I do a backup of the boot.img (hopefully) containing orangefox and flash back in recovery? Or is it best to use magisk addon from inside orangefox or flash magisk.apk from inside orangefox recovery?
Guide @ https://wiki.orangefox.tech/en/guides/flashing says to flash magisk once orangefox.zip is flashed an rebooted into recovery, but also, that:
One thing to note with respect to A/B devices is that, with respect to flashing ROMs, ... you must, immediately after flashing a ROM..., flash the OrangeFox zip again, then change slots, then reboot OrangeFox, before doing anything else. ...
iirc I did that and messed up the data & system_root partition or soemthing, so I reflashed stock rom and tried again. This time I just fastbooted into orangefox recovery and installed the orangefox.zip and it sticsk, flashed a custom rom (e.g. arrow or evolution or xdroid) but didn't slots and neither indstalklked magisk in any way. It works. So what about that slot changing? Better not?
Can you please hint in the right direction and if possible I'd like to understand what's going on, too.
Thanks!

Well done bro!

Well, to answer myself: when booting into recovery, just flash magisk or use orangefox magisk installer addon. It modifies the active a/ or B slot. While flashing a new rom is flashing it to the inactive A or B slot. After a reboot the newly flashed slot will become active, therefore install magisk (or any other) after reboot into recovery, when flashed new rom. But then the advice to change slot seems to be wrong :-?

Can you give me more explanation on how to flash this recovery, the guide said to flash orangefox.zip after installation but there's only the .img files

sorry double post

We have A/B devices, so just move to the folder where you have that .img and use following command in console while you are in fastboot:
fastboot boot OrangeFox-Unofficial-munch.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I didn't remember any "zip" file. Maybe it appeared later automatically as message to install or not.

Hi. I understood that in file manager TWRP and OrangeFox "Read-only file system". Cant move/delete/chmod files in /system_root folders. Is it problem recovery or stock android 12 ?

I see your point.
Op didn't provide zip file, my way to flash it is
1. fastboot boot .img
2. find the option "Flash this recovery" in orange recovery and choose.
