Hi,
I am a little new and don't really know about this subject but :
I purchased a new phone : a Gome K1.
This is not tablet but phone. This is a new brandt. This a MTK (MT6757).
For the story, it came to me with chinese ROM, all menus in chinese
I asked to the seller to give me a ROM with playstore and french. They done it.
I flashed their new ROM with a proprietary flash tool. Now I have a android 6 ROM with Playstore, french menus. Well !
But I'd like to know if there is a way to root it, and install a TWRP :
The ROM came with bootloader locked and no recovery. It is entirely blocked.
No way to unlock bootloader via the general way (fastboot oem unlock --> unknown command)
I read some articles that deal with spflashtool and porting TWRP, but I'm new to this and I don't think I will be able to make all these steps correctly to flash a TWRP ...
Does someone has an idea ?
Is my post on the good topic ?
Up, does someone have an idea of how to root it ?
Hello,i also have a Gome K1 phone and I am also interested at rooting it.
There is an ' OEM unlocking option' under the developers option in the settings, have you tried that yet?
If you managed to import twrp and rooted the phone can you pls send here the steps, Thanks
Hello, happy to not be alone with this phone ...
Yes I tried everything, after enabling unknown source, OEM unlocking and USB Debugging developer options :
- All root apks
- all existing root kits using ADB
- Method with a linux distro to access Phone filesystem as root ( cannot see my phone ... )
Now I'm trying to use SP flashtool last version, but even that cannot correctly access the phone to Readback my recovery : there is BROM error, so I think that phone is not compatible with the phone (seen on a forum ...)
So if someone has an idea, he is welcome

When I contacted them, they send me a non rooted custom ROM which embed Google Apps and All language, AND another flash tool.
This flash tool seems to be based on SP flash tool. It seems to have restrictions (no readback ability ...).
I'm not able to backup anything with this tool or with SP flash tool.
Whis spflashtool, when clicking ReadBack, I power off my phone, and plug USB cable.
It begins the process but I immediatly encounter a BROM error :
ERROR: status_brom_cmd_send_da_fail (0xC0060003)
I read a post which indicate to try to plug usb cable when pressing Power plus Volume Up, but I don't think it can work, because I know that their tool works without that operation.
So now I'm still stuck here. Does someone have an idea ?
Hi
On the Russian forum 4pda, the topic GOME K1 we are also discussing and trying to solve the problem of a locked bootloader. So far no results. ROOT is also not yet possible to get.
I've also ported twrp for GOME K1, but there's no point in installing it until the bootloader is unlocked. Otherwise we will get a brick.
Hi
In Developer options there is a setting to unlock bootloader, it's the third toggle down.
Hope this helps.

No, it's not working. This switch does not affect the boot loader state.

Hello vsxby,
I was successful in flashing custom ROM that vendor uploaded for me.
So I thing I can flash just the recovery with their tool. I'm not an expert, so I'm just a little affraid to follow a guide to port a TRWP for Gome K1 and try to flash it, since it can brick the phone.
If you want, I can't send you a copy of their tool they sent to me (SPMultiPortFlashDownloadProject.exe) ...

Thank you, but I already have this tool. As I wrote before flashing TWRP we need to unlock the bootloader. While this is not impossible to do. But one of our users on 4pda is going to ask the manufacturer to unlock bootloader. In case of success, I will inform you.
If you want to experiment and flash TWRP with a locked bootloader, I can give you the TWRP I made, but I warn you, it's not safe.
Bro,Can you upload the firmware and tools to google drive or something like? It will be very helpful for dealing with this mediatek replica phone(aus6757_66_m),i got some possible factory test MTK AOSP,but the link expires ：（

We were unable to contact the manufacturer and the moderators of the official GOME forum do not have this information. At the moment, there are no solutions to this issue.

Hello,
this is the very first time here at XDA Developers Forum that I do not find clear information about rooting a smartphone. I am talking about this Nokia 3 updated with OREO 8.0. Only a lot of confusion reading your posts, sirs. Nobody that is telling if rooting this model is possibile or not. So... can anyone says if it is possibile and how to do that, in a clear and simple manner?
Thanks and regards!

Hello,
thanks for your reply. I already read this thread.
So since I am on OREO, it seems I have firstly to downgrade to Nougat. Can someone please tell me how to do that, posting links to the official 7.0 rom, the software and a short guide? Somewhere I read you have to use OST, somewhere else SP Flash Tool...
Thanks in advance and regards

Hello again...
I am trying to downgrade my Nokia 3 8.0 to Nougat, in order to unlock the bootloader.
I have searched a lot for an official 7.0 rom... nothing official... I tryed to follow this guide:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nokia-3/development/nokia-3-official-firmware-india-uae-t3674320
Managed to install and get a working copy of OST. Connected and start flashing the rom NE1-147I-ind-0-00WW-B02.nb0 (the one I thought it was the earlier one, since nobody wrote "7, 8, or another number" in the file name). OST got stuck at "Reflash service bootloader..."
Can anyone please write a clear guide on how to proceed to root a Nokia 3 OREO that was never ever unlocked before (i mean with bootload never unlocked)? I am going crazy, really...

flash UAE version of nb0 if IND doesn't flash, that's Android 7.0 May 2017 Security Patch, unlock and lock bootloader there and apply OTA updates from notification up to latest update. Then follow guide.

which ost la version you have?
I finally managed to downgrade to Nougat 7.0.
Now, in order to get root, do I have to unlock bootloader first? Can I obtain the code only via a request to the_laser (that didn't answer me) or can I use an online tool ?

you need to unlock bootloader first, and you can PM code i will send you key, use only OTA through notification, don't use OST LA for this guide.

Hello everyone. I purchased a new Tripletek Pro tablet (running Android 10) for use with my drone due to the super-bright screen it has. I also want to root it so I can use it for other tasks. I don't see a group for this tablet specifically, so is there a generic root process I can perform to do so? Thanks! Please advise.

Here is the link to root, including instructions, for the Tripltek 8 Pro. This is officially from the company.

The company told me that link was for rooting. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. I had to do quite a bit of research outside of that link in order to gain root, including unlocking the bootloader. Send me a PM and I can share the steps with you that I did in order to gain root, because it wasn't an easy process.

Did you figure it out? I pre-ordered the new 9 Pro that just came out. In messaging they told me the bootloader was unlock-able but they weren't exactly keen on telling me the steps to do it.
Figured it out. The link they sent was indeed for rooting as it was the original firmware zip with the boot.img inside that you need for rooting with magisk.
1) Go into settings and enable dev options. (do the tap tap tap thing until it tells you that you are now a dev).
2) Enable USB debugging and check the enable bootloader unlocking option as well inside dev options.
3) Make sure latest version of ADB is installed on a PC.
4) Run these commands ADB devices, ADB reboot bootloader, fastboot flashing unlock, click volume button to proceed, fastboot reboot. Boot Loader will now be unlocked.
5) From the zip of the original firmware, extract boot.img and put it on the tablet somewhere easy to find.
6) Install Magisk app, then click install by patching a file. Choose the boot.img from the zip thats now on the tablet.
7) Take the new magisk_patched.img from the tablet and put back on PC in adb tools folder.
8) Run these commands ADB reboot bootloader, fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img, fastboot reboot.
Done.
Hello, Can any smart person because I'm slow lol help me get the Recovery or the Boot.img for a Motorola Edge 2021, My version is 12 (S1RMS32.48-18-11-2-3). Thanks
You can download a factory image straight from Motorola themselves, using the Lenovo "Rescue and Smart Assistant" (Lenovo RSA).
I personally used this excellent guide from another user right on this very form, that also mentions grabbing the image(s).

I understand that yes but my problem is that I don't have a laptop or PC to run the program so I'm trying to find another way to get the firmware for my Edge 2021, And if I can't do that is there any custom ROM compatible with this device that I could use to patch it with magisk?
So far I have not seen any custom ROMs supporting this device (I think it should come eventually; the last gen has support).
This post includes a download link for an up to date Android 11 ROM. I haven't used it yet though. I'm a little nervous about downloading ROMs from random links, but since I used the guide from the same user (last post you replied to), it feels trustworthy. But use at your own risk.

oh forgive me for forgetting to mention this...
but I'm 99% sure you REQUIRE a PC to flash images onto a phone, since you use the adb debug tool to manipulate the phone while it's in fastboot mode.

I did try it but instead of fully flashing the img I just did fastboot boot so that it would only boot into it one time and it didn't work at all so my only chance of rooting my device is using a PC to get the firmware of my phone, And thanks for the help.
