Hi help me on finding root firmware for X96q android tv device??
A so-called "root firmware" doesn't exist for any mobile device. What do you plan to do with the device?
BTW:
A device's Android can be considered to be rooted if SU binary is present in Android.
@jwoegerbauer my android tv device does nto give admin previllage to my app.So i want give admin previllage
Device is running Android 10, correct?
If yes, then getting the superuser access ( Admin privileges ) through the root and to be able to control various aspects of Android OS means you need to perform a certain modification that will root your TV Box's Android and you will have access to the system files of your device.
Here is what you have to do to root your device's Android: Replace Android's Toybox binary - what is a restricted version by default - by unrestricted Toybox v0.8.5. This can get achieved by means of ADB.

Hello, I am a backend developer but still when it comes to Android, rooting, bootloading ecc. I am a perfect noob.
I tried to Root my Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) in many ways but I always come back to the normal factory system.
TWRP glitches, shuts down the mobile (I cannot even unlock the screen and the reading permissions.
Are there any other options to root my device other than custom roms or recovery projects?
Any help is welcome.
If your device's Android is version 5 and higher then getting the superuser access to be able to control various aspects of Android OS means you need to perform a certain modification that will root your phone's Android and you will have access to the /system directory of your device.

Well, how can I change the Toybox binaries in the system partition if my device is not rooted? As far as I know to do so the device must be already rooted.
You simply install a Tempory ROOT what's matching device's CPU-architecture
Code:
adb devices
adb push <PATH-TO-SUITABLE-SU-BINARY-HERE> /data/local/tmp/

I have looked into rooting, and I don't understand how it works, but from what I can tell, shouldn't people be able to root using adb to change a file that is run regularly in /system, so that whenever it runs it would grant a given app root perms, and that app would then be able to give others root perms? would you have to change the file another way because adb doesn't run commands as root? wouldn't this be alot more simple than what has been being done?
Rooting a phone''s Android technically is simply adding standard Linux function SU ( read: Switch User ) to Android's ecosystem.
Once SU got added and you run the file without any other parameters it switches your credentials and permissions from a normal user to that of the superuser ( comparable to Administrator on Windows OS ). You are then in complete control and can add anything, remove anything and access functions on your phone that you couldn't reach before.
BTW:
With Android versions 6 and higher all what is needed is to replace the pre-installed ( restricted ) Toybox binary with an unrestricted Toybox binary ( e.g. 0.8.5 ) that contains the SU-cmdlet.
If I am understanding this, than you need to grant an app SU, but first you have to install the command that allowes giving of SU? or turn on that command (on android 6+), and grant a manager app permission to use it?
The problem I have is that the 'enable OEM unlocking' option is greyed out on my tablet. I've tried this method but I keep getting this error. I didn't find anything helpful on the internet. Please help me if you can.
Look inside system file build.prop for entry
Code:
ro.oem_unlock_supported
If it's value is 0 then unlocking bootloader isnt supported.
If Android is rooted then you can try to change this entry to
Code:
ro.oem_unlock_supported=1

Well I am unable to root with those 1 click rooting apps. Is there any other way to root it? The PC way is not gonna work because it needs twrp and twrp requires me to unlock OEM
To root a device's Android TWRP isn't needed at all: Rooting is the act of unlocking the Android OS to gain complete control over the device through which you can access hidden files, change the ROM or install certain special apps. Rooting Android OS simply means to add Superuser functionality to it.
Here is what you have to do to root your device's Android: Replace Android's Toybox binary - what is a restricted version by default - by unrestricted Toybox v0.8.5. This can get achieved by means of ADB.

I was able to find this method of rooting through adb:https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/universal-guide-root-any-android-device-manually.2684210/
try it out and please reply if this method worked for you as i also want to try.
update: the rooting manually method didnt work. however, i found another way to get temporary root access on the lenovo tab 4 10. the lenovo tab 4 10 uses kernel version 3.18.71 which can be exploited by cve-2019-2215. download the zip i have attached and then copy the su98-memory-kallsyms file without the extention to /data/local/tmp if you want to do it through adb or to the /data/data/_________ folder where _______ is the terminal emulator you want to use with it and chmod it. then you can just do ./su98-memory-kallsyms and it will give you a root shell.
there is even an app included that does this and provides root access to all the apps. you can however whitelist some apps by puting them in the /data/local/tmp/su98-whitelist.txt. and the apps which werent allowed root access will be automatically put in the su98-denied.txt from where you can put them in the whitelist.
WARNING: this version of su98 was not specifically compiled for lenovo tab 4 10 and is a bit unstable. sometimes when performing a root task, it will freeze your tablet and you will need to restart. this is particularly annoying for me as my powr button is broken and i need to remove and reconnect the battery every time.
