Root Infinix Zero 5 (X-603) (Systemless root Support OTA)

Systemless Root Magisk Beta 15.2 ( Thanks @topjohnwu for Magisk)
As it is systemless so it doesn’t change system file. It only changes in Boot image.
Whenever you got OTA just Reflash Stock Boot img and update your device to latest version.
This Boot.img is taken from latest version of XUI 3.0 Nougat version Build No. X603-H575A-N-IN-171227V175. So When it will update need to Patch again boot.img with updated version or this can also be used.

Thanks alecks!!!!:highfive:
------------------------------------------------------------
Youtube Video Assistance:
Video Name: How to root Android using Magisk Manager & stock boot.img
Channel : Hovatek
------------------------------------------------------------
REQUIREMENTS :
(0) Unlocked Bootloader
To unlock bootloader in Lava X81 by Fastboot mode use the command
fastboot oem unlock #unlock bootloader via fastboot mode
{{{{{ NOTE: Unlocking bootloader in Lava X81 will erase all the user data. So please take a backup before unlocking bootloader. }}}}}
(1) Stock boot.img for your phone model (its best its for your Build Number / Variant ) . You can extract from the stock rom / firmware of your device (you may check our collection at https://forum.hovatek.com/forum-89.html ) OR backup from your device using a hardware box e.g Miracle Box, CM2, Nck Box Pro etc
(2) Download Latest Magisk Manager {Currently 7.3.0 (220)}
(3) Active internet connection on your Android device
(4) A windows 10 Laptop
---------------------------------------------------------
INSTRUCTIONS :
Step 1: Patching the stock boot.img
1. Install Magisk Manager 7.3.0 (220) APK on your android device.
2. Copy the stock boot.img of Lava X81 to your phone's internal storage or SD card whereever you want (Internal Storege\Dowloads is the better option)
3. Launch Magisk Manager app and check for latest updates. After the updates you will see that Magisk Manager is up to date.
4. Then, Select (Magisk is not installed. Latest 19.3 (19300)) Install > (Install Magisk) Install > Select and Patch a File >
5. Navigate to the location of the stock boot.img you copied earlier on (select Dowloads option or in my case, I used ES File Explorer File Manager), then Select it
6. Magisk Manager should begin downloading the magisk zip file for our arm64-v8a Device platform.
7. Once download is complete, MagiskManager will automatically patch the boot file and store it under
/storage/emulated/0/Download/magisk_patched.img
(Then I renamed it as "patched_boot.img" for our convenience)
Step 2: Flashing the patched boot.img
Among a variety of options to flash, I preferred Fastboot method
(0) Connect your Lava X81 one or two times to the PC (for preinstalling drivers)
(1) Boot your Lava X81 into fastboot mode.
(2) Open platform-tools_r28.0.1-windows.zip file
(3) Simultaneously press Keyboard's Shift key and Right click on the mouse, to open PowerShell window
(4) On the PowerShell use the following codes to flash:
Starting from phone's normal usb debugging mode,
adb devices #Ensures your phone connectivity in ADB (Android Debug Interface) mode via USB Debugging
adb reboot-bootloader #Reboot your phone to Fastboot Mode from ADB
fastboot devices #Ensures your phone connectivity in Fastboot mode
fastboot getvar unlocked #To check whether the bootloader is unlocked or not. It should be unlocked to proceed further steps
fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img #Flash the Magisk Patched Boot image file in Fastboot Mode
fastboot reboot #Reboot to the system from exiting Fastboot Mode​
(5) Congrats and check with a Root checker app for root status. While checking for root status itself pop out for root permission.

Root Lava X81 using Magisk Manager by patching stock boot image (No TWRP)
http://www.mediafire.com/file/zjb78878i52865c/Root_Lava_X81_using_Magisk_Manager_by_patching_stock_boot_image_%2528No_TWRP%2529.zip/file

It is worked successfully guys!
Try it.
Two Bugs:
1. Cannot try reboot to the stock recovery. It strucks. You have to switch off and switch on the phone. During this your phone will make fear "Performing factory reset". Don't worry! blah blah blah...
SO YOU MUST DEVELOP TWRP RECOVERY FOR LAVA X81
2. Cannot flash .zip files using Magisk only. It every time asks TWRP or any other recovery to flash the zip file.
So you must develop TWRP recovery for Lava X81
3. While installing SuperSU it says "binary occupied" by MagiskSU. So apps like FlashFire won't flash zip file.
4. Don't try to uninstall stock YouTube app & and replace it with YouTube vanced app. Use YouTube Vanced the app for no root along with MicroG. But YouTube vanced 14.21.54 seems to be exceptional.

Guide to Install GApps and Magisk on Custom ROMs for Nokia 7.2

While I was trying to install GApps for Lineage OS 18.1 on my Nokia 7.2, I always lost my wi-fi. This is apparently due to flashing TWRP as boot image, which replaces the stock boot messing with wi-fi as the boot image has thee kernel.
Although, I did figure it out, it took me three days to get a proper solution from multiple sources. Here, I will explain how to install Lineage OS 18.1 on Nokia 7.2 with Gapps and Magisk. This can be applied to other ROMs as well. I am assuming you are on stock firmware.
Requirements:
Any custom ROM without GApps
vbmeta file
vendor image
Gapps zip file of your choice
platform-tools
twrp image
magisk file
payload dumper tool
Preperation:
The wifi stops working because we change the boot image. To prevent this, we must flash the boot image of the rom after we are done with our work with TWRP
For this, we ,ust get the boot image for the ROM. As this is not available readily, we must extract it from the ROM zip
Install latest python on your pc
Get the payload dumper tool from the link given below. Extract the contents into the root directory of python. It should be in C:\Users\USER-NAME\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python <version number>
Extract the ROM zip into any folder. Copy the payload.bin file and paste it in the folder where you put the payload dumper tool
Open a command prompt in the python root folder and type
Code:
python -m pip install -r requirements.txt
Then type
Code:
python payload_dumper.py payload.bin
After it finishes, go to the folder named Output inside the python folder. Here there will be a file named boot.bin. Rename this as lineage_boot.bin and paste it into the platform tools folder
Installation:
Download the twrp image, rename it to twrp.img and place it in the platform-tools folder. Connect your phone to the computer, switch on usb debugging on your phone.
Open command shell in the platform-tools folder and type
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
. In the bootloader, type
Code:
fastboot flash boot_b twrp.img
.
Next, type
Code:
fastboot --set-active=b
and then reboot to recovery using volume buttons and selecting using power button
In TWRP swipe to allow modifications. Copy your ROM and vendor image files to your SD Card. Now, click wipe, format data and type yes. Go back to home screen and the press install. Select your ROM file and install it. Sometimes it is required to flash vendor image. In that case flash that too. This step is required for Lineage OS 18.1
Now on the twrp home screen, tap on reboot. At the bottom, the current slot should be B. Tap slot A. THis changes the active slot to A. Now go back and tap on bootloader, this should boot you to the bootloader.
Take your vbmeta.img file and place it in the platform tools folder. Now, while in the bootloader mode, type,
Code:
fastboot flash vbmeta_a --disable-verity --disable-verification vbmeta.img
Next type
Code:
fastboot flash boot_a twrp.img
and boot to recovery using volume buttons
Now, press install in TWRP and select install and install the GApps file and reboot to bootloader
Next, in the bootloader type
Code:
fastboot flash boot_a lineage_boot.img
. Now start your phone. You should have lineage os with GApps
Installing Magisk:
Copy the lineage_boot.img into your phone. Download magisk.apk file from the link given below
Install the magisk app and open it. If it asks for additional setup select no. Beside the magisk option select install. Under options, if Recovery Mode is selected, deselect it and click next.
Now click on Select and patch a file under method. Select the lineage_boot.img
The patched image will be saved in downloads folder. Rename this file to lineage_magisk.img and copy it to the platform tools folder on your computer. Reboot your phone to bootloader mode
On your computer in the command window opened in the platform tools folder, type,
Code:
fastboot flash boot lineage_magisk.img
Reboot and you will have a rooted lineage os with GApps
Files:
Lineage OS 18.1 and vbmeta.img
TWRP
vendor
NikGApps
Payload Dumper tool
platform tools
Magisk

Hi @Ujwal2000 thanks for the guide.
I am using the stock android 10 rom and magisk patch method.
This also leads to non working wifi and magisk does not recognize that its installed.
Which steps of your guide apply to the stock rom?
i do not need gapps nor twrp I guess I only wanted to root the stock rom with magisk.

For stock, use this guide. They maintain a repository if patched boot images
