[Guide] Root with Magisk, easy method - Samsung Galaxy On5 Guides, News, & Discussion

Hello,
I have a Galaxy On5 Pro in my home and was running AdHell till it could. Now that Samsung has stopped providing keys, an alternate way of disabling stock bloats and adblock was needed.
I tried the simplest way of rooting this phone, should work with any phone on On5 series.
1. Download the latest Firmware for your Phone from Updato or in other thread. Make sure it matches what you already have on your phone. Open archive and extract boot.img from that.
2. In Developer Options, enable OEM Unlocking.
3. Install Magisk Manager (as you normally do any apk).
4. Open Magisk Manager and click install, then select patch boot image. Select the boot.img you extratced in step 1 and select format to be 'tar'. Copy this patched image in Computer.
5. Boot in Odin and flash the patched boot image. Reboot the device.
You are rooted with Magisk.
If anyone is interested, I can provide more information if needed.
Thank you.

Works on SM-S550TL (TracFone)?

[ROOT]Root Guide for Huawei MediaPad M5

DISCLAIMER: I'm not responsible for anything that happens to your device. Use the steps below at your own risk . Be mindful of the facts unlocking bootloader voids your warranty and also hard resets your device - ALL YOUR DATA, SETTINGS, FILES AND APPS WILL BE DELETED. Rooting your device voids warranty as well. I own the Chinese SHT-AL09 8.4" LTE device and tested this root procedure ONLY WITH THIS MODEL. However, I believe there is a good chance the steps below will work for all other models of MediaPad M5, including WiFi only variants and 10" models. You MUST unlock your bootloader first. Do NOT use ramdisk image I provide in the steps below for any other model besides SHT-AL09 - doing so is guaranteed to render your device unusable. Ramdisk I provided is ONLY for SHT-AL09. You will need to extract your own ramdisk from stock firmware, specific to your device model
Credits:
@Wirmpolter - this root method largely based on his Magisk guide for Mate 9
@topjohnwu for creating the awesome Magisk Manager, which was used to patch ramdisk image with superuser binary
People, who created HuaweiUpdateExtractor
@magnumlove who pointed me in the right for developing root method in this post
This site, for hosting stock firmware for Huawei MediaPad M5
1. First, you will need to unlock the bootloader of your M5. Follow this guide
2. Transfer this patched ramdisk image to your device
Note for users with version of M5 other than SHT-AL09: Do NOT use the above ramdisk image. Download the full stock rom (update.zip) from the site I linked in the credits. Extract UPDATE.APP file from the zip. Then use HuaweiUpdateExtractor to extract ramdisk.img specific to your device. If you get errors in HuaweiUpdateExtractor - uncheck first 2 checkboxes for checksum verification on Settings tab and try again
3. Once bootloader is unlocked, install latest Magisk Manager from the official Magisk thread
4. Once Magisk Manager gives you a pop-up prompt to either download Magisk zip or patch the boot image file - chose to patch the boot image, but instead of boot.img select ramdisk.img from step 2. Magisk Manager should give you a message the image was successfully patched. It will be saved as patched_boot.img in MagiskManager folder on your sdcard. If it does not say success - do NOT proceed
5. Transfer the newly created patched_boot.img back to your PC
6. If you already have ADB and Fastboot tools installed on your PC you can just use what you've got. If not - get them from here
7. Connect your M5 to PC via USB cable
8. Run command prompt. If your ADB and Fastboot are installed as system app - you can do this from any path in CMD. If not - you need to switch in CMD to your ADB and Fastboot folder. Either way, the patched ramdisk patched_boot.img file must be in the same path, from which you will be running commands below in CMD window
9. Type "adb " in CMD window to start android debug bridge
10. Type "adb reboot-bootloader" and wait until your device restarts in Download mode
11. Once in Download mode, type "fastboot flash ramdisk patched_boot.img" - you should see some output from flash procedure, indicating successful flash
12. Once patched ramdisk is flashed, type "fastboot reboot"
That is it - you're done. Once your device reboots it will be rooted.
Note 1: Magisk Manager has it's own built-in superuser app and uses Systemless root, which works completely differently - you will not see external, standalone app like SuperSU or SU you might be familiar with in your App Drawer. The way to control the superuser app is from Magisk Manager itself: Settings->Superuser section
Note 2: I don't do tech support via PM, so don't PM me for help or with questions. Use the thread instead, and some other XDA members or myself will probably help you. Good luck!
Note 3: You may find some links to Huawei stock firmware in the 2nd post
UPDATE - August 6, 2018
Huawei officially approved 8.0.0.171 firmware with GPU Turbo for installation on SHT-AL09 devices. If you're doing first time root - just follow the original steps above. If you are already rooted and want to upgrade to 8.0.0.171 - follow the steps below:
1. Boot into download mode:
Code:
adb reboot-bootloader
from CMD window
2. Flash stock recovery from 8.0.0.171 to your device in fastboot:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery_ramdis.img
3. Download and install the official OTA through Settings (full or just the update)
4. Boot into download mode again and flash patched ramdisk from 8.0.0.171
Code:
fastboot flash ramdisk patched_boot.img
5. OPTIONAL: If you were using TWRP or any custom recovery - you will need to reflash it back
Code:
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk twrp.img
or whatever you named your custom recovery image
REMINDER: Do NOT use ramdisk image I provided for any other model besides SHT-AL09 - doing so is guaranteed to render your device unusable. This patched ramdisk is ONLY for SHT-AL09. You will need to extract your own ramdisk from stock firmware, specific to your device model
Needless to say, all the images you are going to flash must reside in the same directory, from which you are going to be running the CMD commands. If your ADB/Fastboot folder is not in your WIndows' PATH environmental variable - the images must be placed in the same folder where ADB/Fastboot binaries are, and CMD commands must be run from that folder.

I'm considering buying an SHT-W09 with firmware version 8.0.0.200 (C567), but I'd like to know if I can root it first. I do not know if the bootloader has been unlocked. Since you have the same version, can you confirm that it's possible to unlock and root, and if so, sketch out how it's done? I'm confused about whether it's possible with this firmware.

Unlocking is possible *only* if you've gotten already your unlock code. As this service was suspended about 2 years ago there is no easy way to get it unlocked.
Small request to developers, or people with access to reliable file hosting: I don't have a developer account, so all the files I linked or referenced in the OP are hosted on free hosting sites. That file hosting has expiration date and max downloads limit, so the files will become inaccessible sooner rather than later. Please upload these files to reliable hosting and create a post with the links. I will link your post in the OP as a mirror.
In the meantime, mirror for SHT-W09 firmware: https://mega.nz/#!asVjmZrR!bW2OmXgTjnyVN4pqb9fA7OzAJ4bzil7YZxNW14qoCmk
I can confirm that this works on the 10.8" wifi model using the devices relevant ramdisk.img.
Hello, can somebody test sixaxis controller tool with root and magisk? There is a Trial in Google Play Store, that is called sixaxis compatibility checker without purchise the App. Maybe i want to buy the Tablet, but only with Dualshock 4 Support...
Just a heads up, been following threads on this forum for flashing a GSI. Now that you guys can root, you can also make backups of your own stock system image if you can't find one from Firmware Finder. Then you can safely try flashing the GSI.
@MishaalRahman well it's bit like chicken egg dilemma. As we do not have a stock system image for e.g. SHT-W09 we cannot patch the ramdisk.img and so we cannot get the stock system image ...
Thanks Apo11on, great to have root so soon for the M5! Do you know if there's a way to get Xposed working? I tried the Xposed Framework SDK 26 from inside Magisk, but it put me in a boot loop.
Question is, for those of us with the Non Pro version, can this still be done.
@OHP Yes. The OP did it with the 8.4" version which has no pro option.
I'm looking to buy the Chinese 10" wifi version myself but need Google Play Store + Services on it which I'm guessing the Chinese version doesn't have. Is one of the firmwares at the website you link to a global version of the firmware that will work on this model?

Doesn't matter what version you have as long as you have access to your device firmware and the ramdisk.img. You really need to reread the guide.

I have exactly the same tablet/firmware as you and it was fine. The additional letter also threw me a little. But if you are unsure, download Huawei Firmware Finder from Google play and it will automatically detect your tablets firmware (which you can download if you wish).

2. Transfer this patched ramdisk image to your device
Note for users with version of M5 other than SHT-AL09: Do NOT use the above ramdisk image. Download the full stock rom (update.zip) from the site I linked in the credits.

If you get errors in HuaweiUpdateExtractor - uncheck first 2 checkboxes for checksum verification on Settings tab and try again
I have a CMR-W09 :s i can got the files downloaded and the huwai software not sure how i make a img
The good news is I followed these instructions yesterday and they worked perfectly (SHT-AL09).
The bad news is, I seem to have lost root overnight.
---------- Post added at 06:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:22 AM ----------
And I figured out why I lost root; I was playing around with Developer options and switched the default GPU renderer from 'default' to 'Skia.' Apparently, this disables root access until you switch back. I regained root access on a reboot, lost it again after switching back to Skia, and then regained it after switching back to default.
I got the right image file from the site and huwai extract. I have googled how to use this app but what files do I extract as there appears to be. Alot ? I extracted all of them ? I don't have a ramdisk.img
Also thanks for writting this up. Without it I would be lost
Thanks for the efforts making this thread. Unfortunately my device is SHT-W09 and I'm still waiting for the right firmware. Is there anything I can help, considering I have the device?
@dkk6 I am in the same boat as you. Unfortunately I installed the update to 8.0.0 123 without having the Firmware Finder installed on the device. Do you have installed already the update to 8.0.0 123?
If not, you could install Firmware Finder and provide us with the ota url ...
This works perfectly no issues. i had some how maanged to download the wrong rom first. AND thankfully it did not have a ramdisk in. it is important that your firmware matches the firmware present on the site as explained. This was easy guide to follow now to flash it with somthing other then andriod

[GUIDE] P20 Pro Android 8.x How to Root

For those who would like to root, but not install any version of TWRP, here is a guide I put together. Hopefully it's easy enough and specific enough to understand:
1. Be sure to download the firmware you are CURRENTLY on to avoid any possible issues. Find it under SETTINGS, SYSTEM, ABOUT PHONE, BUILD NUMBER. The region is in parenthesis and the firmware version is the last three digits.
2. Extract the RAMDISK.img file using this Huawei Updater Extractor: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2433454
3. Obtain a previously patched RAMDISK file to get an initial Magisk install on your phone first. There is one on XDA floating around named CLT-29-MAGISK.img.
4. Boot into ***FASTBOOT and then get to a CMD window with your ADB tools and use the command "fastboot flash ramdisk CLT-29-MAGSIK.img"
5. Reboot the phone and download Magisk Manager 5.5.5. There may be other versions that work, but this version worked every time for me.
6. After installing Magisk Manager 5.5.5, install the next two upgraded versions while INSIDE Magisk Manager until you get to 7.1.x.x. To avoid any issues with Magisk Manager, don't exit out of the application until you install 7.1.x.x.
7. Click INSTALL on the first option next to the word MAGISK in Magisk Manager to patch your freshly extracted RAMDISK.img file from Step 2. Magisk Manager does not allow for direct installation of the Magisk zip file any longer so you need to patch a stock RAMDISK file to be flashed in Step 9.
8. Copy that RAMDISK.img file to your PC and place the file in your ADB tools folder. It would be good to save a copy of this file for later if you need to re-root. By doing so, you can avoid steps 1-3.
9. Boot into FASTBOOT and then get to a CMD window with your ADB tools and use the command "fastboot flash ramdisk patched_boot.img"
10. Reboot and you'll have root!
***FASTBOOT
To boot into FASTBOOT, turn off phone, hold down the VOLUME DOWN button for a few seconds, and while still holding it plug your charging cable into the phone. The screen should turn on with a white background indicating you are in FASTBOOT mode.

I've installed magisk without twrp, just follow guide online. No need specific software because 7zip can extract boot.img easily from update file. After that install magisk manager app on phone, select install - patch own boot file, copy modified file to pc again, reboot into bootloader, flash modified boot.img and reboot.

Hi. Did you do these passages also on MIUI 12? Because I installed Magisk app, but it showed Ramdisk: no, and now I don't know if I should install it in recovery partition or not
there's twrp and orangefox that can be used for cc9 meitu/vela. Unlock bootloader, enable adb, flash custom recovery by fastboot. After that use custom recovery to install magisk. I'm sorry I don't use cc9 anymore since last weekend because miui12 notification and permission is too aggressive, have to restart app everytime so that can get contact info.

Since you mentioned custom ROMs in the first guide, have you found any that are compatible with the J8? If so, could you link them?
Edit: Found a port of LineageOS 16 (Android 9.0) by the developer Bad Guy. However I couldn't get TWRP to flash it as it always resulted in error 7, despite modifying the file to remove the assert section. The no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.1.zip would not flash either due to error 1.

I have taken a look at your ROM, however I don't think it would work.
The ROM is ARM64, and the Galaxy J8 is an ARM device with a 64-bit binder. This means that the ROM needs to have that architecture to work.
It also requires Spaget X which is built for Exynos, and the J8 is a Snapdragon device.
And on another note, do you happen to know the fix for error 1 on the disable forced encryption zip?

Question Does anyone know how to root oneplus 9 Android 13.1?

Alguém sabe como fazer root no oneplus 9 Android 13.1?
First of all, please write in English. This is an English-only forum.
You can root the latest 13.1 firmware the same way you root others. I assume you already have the bootloader unlocked, proper drivers installed on your PC, and basic know-how of fastboot/adb commands. Here is the process:
You need to get the boot.img of your current firmware. You can extract it through MSM Tool's Read Back feature. In case you don't know about MSM, I have attached the boot.img for latest OOS13.1 firmware LE2115_13.1.0.500(EX01). Download and extract zip file and you will have boot.img. Copy this boot.img to your phone. Next you need to download/install Magisk v26.1 on your phone. Open the app, click Install and select that boot.img. Magisk will patch that boot.img and create a new patched_boot.img in your phone's Download folder. Copy that patched_boot.img to your PC. Reboot your phone to bootloader mode. Run this command to temporarily boot the patched_boot.img:
fastboot boot <your_patched_boot.img>
Note that this command is to boot it temporarily. It DOES NOT flash it. Ok, so once your phone boots up, open Magisk app again, click Install and select Direct Install. Now Magisk will root your current firmware permanently.
By this method of temporary booting and then rooting with Magisk's Direct Install method, Magisk will backup your original boot.img. So whenever there is a new software update, you can go to Magisk, select Uninstall, choose Restore Images, and Magisk will revert your original stock boot.img from it's backup. Then you can proceed with system update. Otherwise, without restoring original boot.img, the system update will fail because of patched_boot.img.
Here is the zip attachment. Make sure to extract it.
Thank you friend
