[How-To] Unlock Bootloader and Root

To start off everyone should know that messing with your phone can brick it!! You should not mess with your phone if you are unsure of what you are doing. You will get this (or a similar) warning while following the unlock instructions from Motorola as well. Following these instructions also voids your warranty!
I only use Motorola's official firmware for the moment and these instructions were originally performed on the ASA14 firmware. They should be useful for previous versions of the firmware but I will not be testing those. These instructions may not work for releases after ASA14.
While following this guide you need to be on a Windows PC with the administrator account or an account with administrative privileges. If you do not have these privileges you will likely run into issues. All instructions are written for a PC running Windows 7 as that is the only PC I have access to. If anyone has any instructions using a different version of Windows I will gladly add them in.
Windows commands:
dir - Lists all directories (folders) and files of the directory you are currently in.
cd {directory name} - Moves into the named directory. The directory names are case-sensitive.
cd.. - Moves to the directory before the one you are currently in. For instance if you are in C:\Users\Public and perform cd.. you will move to C:\Users
{Unlocking the Bootloader}​
I'm writing this pretty late and formatting takes forever so I'll update this section later with my own set of instructions. For now use this guide which I plan on using for inspiration since I can't really repeat the unlock process.
Below is my work in progress. This is incomplete and will be unhidden when it is completed.
Updated Unlock
1. Download the Android SDK
2. Unzip the file. If you don't have a program to unzip the file 7-zip is great.
3. Move the unzipped folder to a location that is easy to locate. For me I put this in "Documents".
4. Rename the folder to something shorter, that way it's easier to type in later. "ADT" is easy to use and remember.
5. Download the drivers for the phone.
6. Open "MotorolaDeviceManager_2.3.9.exe" and install the drivers.
7. Go here
8. Click "PROCEED ANYWAY"
9. Register an account with Motorola.
10. Go to Start > All Programs > Accessories
11. Open “Command Prompt”
12. Use the cd commands to navigate to your “platform-tools” folder.
13. Turn off your phone (power button + volume down if you can't select any options to turn off the phone)
14. Turn it back on using the power button + volume up + volume down combination
15. Select “Fastboot” (volume down cycles through, volume up selects the option)
16. Connect your phone to your PC.
17. Type "fastboot oem get_unlock_data" in Command Prompt.
{Installing a New Recovery}​
For the recovery we’re going to install the Photon Q Open Recovery. Every recovery has its advantages and disadvantages. This one is familiar to me and so I chose it for this guide.
1. Download the recovery image
2. Place the image in the Android SDK “platform-tools” folder which is in the "sdk" folder
3. Turn off your phone (power button + volume down if you can't select any options to turn off the phone)
4. Turn it back on using the power button + volume up + volume down combination
5. Select “Fastboot” (volume down cycles through, volume up selects the option)
6. Connect your phone to your PC
7. Go to Start > All Programs > Accessories
8. Right-click “Command Prompt”
9. Click “Run as administrator”
10. Use the cd commands to navigate to your “platform-tools” folder (Unfortunately I cannot tell you where this is as each computer will have it placed differently)
11. Type in “fasboot flash recovery open_recovery_206_05_06_2013.img”
{Getting Root}​
1. Download the zip file for rooting
2. Place the file in the root (ie. not within a folder) of your phone’s SD card
3. Turn your phone off
4. Turn it back on using the power button + volume up + volume down combination
5. Select “Recovery” (volume down cycles through, volume up selects the option)
6. Select “Apply Update” (In recovery the the controls change. Volume up and volume down move in the list, the camera button at the bottom right of the device selects.)
7. Select the file you placed on your SD card from step 2
8. Wait for the update to apply, it should say that it finished successfully
9. Select “Reboot Phone”
Credit for all of this goes to their respective creators. I will name them all by name at a later date, but the credit can also be found following the linked material. Hopefully that doesn't bother the creators, writers, or hosts.

Please don't re-post this how-to without crediting. I've had it happen before and it was a huge disincentive for updating and making new guides.

section "{Installing a New Bootloader}" and "1. Download the bootloader image" below it are actually reffering to recovery (probably the best one out there). Not a bootloader.
Bootloader boots the system. Depending on keys pressed during boot (if any, or if instructed by commands) it can boot to bootloader menu, recovery, system (android)...

Ah, thanks. I would have known that if I rechecked but I haven't had time to.
Edit:
While I was editing I noticed I referenced it as recovery multiple times and was switching between the two as the guide went on!

unlocking bootloader failed
ok so i got the device id went to the motorola site said it was good got the unlock key did the step and typed it in the command prompt and it says
(bootloader) password incorrect
(bootloader) oem unlock failure
FAILED <remote failure>
sorry if this is a noob question usualy dont post first time last time i rooted a fone was on an evo 4g so never really messed with command prompts and unlock keys to much i repeted the whole process 3 times already and i still get the same message
edit: nvm got it to work hahaha forgot to capslock the letter in the key thanks for the write up man

Yeah, unfortunately there's are a few points where unlocking get's confusing. I had to enter my stuff from the command prompt to Motorola's site like 5 times before I figured out where the copy/paste had spaces. It took me a while to figure out I had pasted an extra space at the end. This was the first phone for Motorola's bootloader unlock plan so I'm hoping they improve on it for their future phones.

The OP is updated with some more color-coding, updated credits (though I didn't try to get everyone just yet), and changed the link to an updated SuperSU. This should work on the Jellybean update though I won't know for sure unless someone confirms it in this thread. I've taken a break from messing with my personal phone for a while so I won't be checking the boards as often but I'll still be checking every few days.

FYI, if you install TWRP it will detect whether you have root or not and offer to install it for you.
Simplifies the guide a bit, and IMHO TWRP is a great recovery - all touch based, no more mashing the volume keys .
Nicely done regardless.

I noticed I was missing a step in the {Getting Root} section. It was an implied step but I added it for clarity.
I also had forgotten to mention that once you get into recovery the buttons used to control things change slightly. You can use the keyboard in addition to the device buttons.

Thanks for the How-to!:good: I was wondering if you would mind if I gave you or added some instructions for Linux users?

Yeah that would be fine. PM me the instructions and I'll test them out on my Linux partition. It'll probably take a few days as I have things coming up.

I've updated the links in the OP to Open Recovery 2.06 (changing the name in the command accordingly) and started writing my own set of bootloader unlock steps. They aren't complete yet but if someone is having troubles understanding the first few steps of the linked article mine should be broken down to be a bit easier to digest.

Open Recovery is on version 2.09 now. Has anyone tried it? I tried it using the posted steps but I got the same result as when I tried cmwrecovery, the phone doesn't boot to it, it boots to an image of the android guy on his back with his belly open and a red exclamation point hovering over him. Any advise? It's a Photon Q using Android version 4.1.2 nand I have successfully unlocked the bootloader.

I never changed versions because most of the updates target Kit-Kat based custom ROMs. Make sure your phone is NOT plugged in when you try to get into recovery. If it doesn't work when not attached to anything re-download the recovery and try installing again.

I have tried to get into recovery both plugged in and not plugged in. I tried downloading and re downloading both CMWrecovery and open recovery 2.09 both.
Are you saying Open Recovery 2.09 is targeted at Kit-Kat custom ROMs and won't work on my phone? Should I try the version in your OP?

It should work in theory regardless of Kit-Kat, but if you've already tried all of that then give the older version a shot. I really post only what I know and have tried in the original post. It's beyond the scope of my thread though so you may have better luck asking in the recovery threads if you can't get any version to work. I'm on my phone for the time being or I would link you to the appropriate threads myself.

See the OpenRecovery thread for a valid link to that recovery... the links are a bit outdated for OR, look near the end of the thread.

I have the link to the Open Recovery thread at the very start of the section about installing recovery. It's there in case links die, someone wants more info on what they're installing, or someone has support questions pertaining to Open Recovery. This thread didn't seem to be very popular compared to one I made for an older phone so I haven't kept it up to date. The phone has been out for some time as well so I likely won't be updating this thread.

How to Root s920t on a mac, without installing windows?

I have been derailing the internet trying to figure out some way to root my device with and without usb connecting it to my mac. Frankly, as far as I can tell my mac and my phone won't support mass storage of android so odin etc seems out of the question. I just want to find a way to get my phone rooted (tried kingroot and it asked for computer and I've a mac so there you have it). Please if anyone could help me find a simple, maybe even complicated way to root my s6 (it's updated fully).

Define without USB? Like no OTG USB Storage or no USB cable? If that's the case then you're asking how to root the device without a computer which afaik with Samsung isn't an easy deed (perhaps not possible).
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Firstly, you do this at your own risk. Js.
However.. If you can get it up and going on your Mac then try out Heimdall (the Mac/Linux Odin alternative some whiz managed to reverse engineer).
P.S. I have Linux but I've seen Heimdall is available on Mac, unfortunately I can't step you through installation.

Go to the TWRP.ME site and locate your device and download the latest TWRP image (should be 3.1.1.0)
https://dl.twrp.me/zerofltetmo/
Download dm-verity encryption disabler (without this, it's likely things won't go as planned, it ensures you haven't modified system files etc)
https://androidfilebox.com/miscellaneous/dm-verity-and-forced-encryption-disabler/
Choose a Root method (personally I prefer Magisk but for a first time superuser provider I would recommend SuperSu:
https://download.chainfire.eu/1114/SuperSU/SR1-SuperSU-v2.82-SR1-20170608224931.zip
[ PLACE PHONE IN DOWNLOAD MODE: Hold VOL-DOWN + HOME + LOCK, then press VOL-UP ]
1. Go to Utilities Tab
2. Click Detect Device; if it is not detected you have a problem (find fix then go to Step 3)
3. Output reads Device detected; beneath Download PIT save the file somewhere (e.g. Documents/s6.pit)
4. Go to Flash Tab
5. Beneath Options > PIT, browse for the .pit file you saved in Step 3
6. On the right hand side, beneath Partitions (Files) click > Add, on the left change the partition name to Recovery (where it will ask for a recovery.img file)
--- READ STEPS 7-9 BEFORE YOU DO THEM ---
7. Select the TWRP.img you downloaded earlier
8. Click Start, pick your phone up (be careful not to disconnect it)
9. AS SOON AS THE SCREEN GOES BLACK, HOLD: VOL-UP + HOME + LOCK
--- READ STEPS 7-9 BEFORE YOU DO THEM ---
10. If done correctly (and your bootloader is unlocked, and your RA lock is disabled) you will be in TWRP Recovery. Swipe to allow system modifications (you can always come back here later, you asked for Root so this will suffice).
11. Use Finder (File Browser) to navigate onto the phone from your Mac and copy SuperSU and no-verity onto the Internal Storage
12. From TWRP (on the phone) tap on the Install tab and if you aren't able to see the two .zip files you copied over, you're probably in the / directory; navigate to /sdcard
13. Tap on the no-verity.zip first, continue through, don't worry about using multiple .zips just install and go back when it is complete
14. Tap on the SuperSU.zip. Continue through, same as previous step, this time backing out to the TWRP menu and tap on the Reboot Tab > Choose System
15. If prompted to install anything (TWRP) untick the boxes and tap do not install.
16. Your device should be rooted. Don't turn the phone off, don't panic. SuperSU can cause the first one or so boots to end prematurely and the device will reboot (don't be alarmed if it cuts out).
Note:
On the odd chance that your device is stuck in a bootloop or you are worried about 'bricking' the phone, the only way that can happen (afaik) is if you disconnect during important installations such as during the Odin/Heimdall flash process or TWRP (under certain circumstances, even during Odin/Heimdall you can normally pull through). Otherwise, you'll just end up with a soft-brick (99.9% of the time this is the only thing that happens)

Lg V20 H910 (up to 20h) (root, twrp, and more!) Noob guide!

i am making this post because i have an lg v20 running 20h. there was no root guides available, so i decided to root mine using an older guide. it succeeded, but was very hard and time consuming. Being a noob at the time, i was also extremely nervous that i could possibly brick my phone or screw something up. i didn't, and no part of this should brick yours either. ***However - if you do somehow break your device in any way, that is on you. by completing these steps, you assume full responsibility. now that we have that out of the way, lets continue. at the end of this guide, you should have a rooted device with your choice of os (7 or 8 - or even a custom rom if you choose!). you should also have twrp. this guide would not have been possible without users runningnak3d and clsA
**** Also, during this Proccess, Your Phone WILL be wiped clean!!! don't forget to back up photos, videos, etc...*****
don't download any other files than from this guide.
1. download these files (required) https://lg-firmwares.com/downloads-file/4578/H91510e_00_VTR_CA_OP_1205.kdz (for a rootable os that we can flash, - get this also (required) https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/guide-patch-lgup-to-unlock-features-t3652222 this program is called lg up and has been patched to work with this phone. you will also need this. https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1322778262903990218. these are the root files and need to be all in the same folder as where lg up is installed. you will also need to have access to fastboot and need to have adb installed. that is pretty easy, give it a google search if you still need help.
if you are running 32 bit, get this https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads
this is the OS. get nougat, which has like three less steps (you can't upgrade to oreo on this os once rooted) or scroll down and get the oreo file. nougat (really old version) https://drive.google.com/file/d/1S82HVNt2rAtXgBY499IBJnoCVFnpCf_X/view
Oreo - get this first file, and the ones under it. https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=1322778262904015326
***https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=283977*** You have to have this file if getting oreo. if you chose nougat, then don't get this.
2. Now that you have everything downloaded and installed, put your phone into download mode. (power it off, hold the volume down button and plug in a usb c cable attached to your pc. don't stop holding volume down until you see download mode.)
3. once it is in download mode, open up lg up. select your device, (it should be in standby mode, according to lg up) and click dump (this is a total backup of the phone, you are lucky you know this right now, I didn't when i rooted mine) . it will bring up a file explorer, select where you want it to save to. (I chose my desktop). once you have a folder selected., it will bring up a bunch of options for partitions. click select all and uncheck user data. ****Make SURE that you don't unplug your phone during any part of this process or any other process in this guide, it will permanently brick it. ***** ow that you have selected everything but userdata, click start.
4. once that finishes, you will have made a full backup of your phone in case something goes wrong.
then click the partition DL button and select the h915 v10e kdz file (the file that i said was the rootable os we can flash) (the first file you downloaded). make sure bin file stays checked. then click start. once that finishes, your phone should automatically reboot into an old nougat operating system. then go to settings, enable developer options, and turn on usb debugging. that is easy, if you can't figure it out, google is your friend. now you should have no cellular signal. this is not the permanent ROM.
5. go to the play store and download terminal emulator for android. (once usb debugging has been enabled
then go ahead and go to the folder where you extracted the root files/package. hold shift and right click to open a command windows there or powershell, whatever your pc says. open 2 of those windows. then, in the first one, type, adb logcat -s dirtysanta
****don't close this window.*****
then in the other window, type STEP1.BAT
*****don't close this window.***** It may take a minute, but after a while it will let you type again. once you can, type run-as con
chmod 0777 /storage/emulated/0/*
6. then, pull up the window you used the logcat command in. leave it there so you can watch it
then, on your phone, go to the terminal emulator and type applypatch /system/bin/atd /storage/emulated/0/dirtysanta
once you do that, glance at the logcat window. once it says to run step 2, go to the window where you typed step1.bat. type STEP2.BAT
at this point, your phone should go ahead and reboot and say fastboot mode up at the top. now, go to your window where you typed all the .bats and type STEP3.BAT. wait until your phone reboots and you will see a screen saying that you can;'t use your phone. this is bogus, just ignore it and wait like 10-15 seconds for it to get past that screen. then it will boot that android and you should get a green screen.
Now, quickly, pull the battery from your phone. leave it out for a little while while we prepare the next steps.
If you want oreo, scroll to where it says OREO in capital letters. if you want nougat, scroll to where it says NOUGAT.
NOUGAT
use the file that you downloaded if you selected nougat - it should be a zip. it will be called h910-10r. DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT UNZIP THE FILE. place it on a pre formatted micro sd card. then, place the battery and sd card back in your phone. also, unplug the phone. then, hold down the volume down key and hold hold the power key. once you see the lg logo, release the power key and immediately hold the power key again. then, you should get a screen that asks if you want to reset your phone. use your volume keys to navigate and select yes, then again confirm it. then, after letting it reboot, it should go into twrp. once there, go to wipe\and select format data. then type yes to confirm. then, go back to the main screen and click wipe again. go ahead and click advanced and wipe your dalvik cache. once done, go to home screen and click install. select the select storage option down at the bottom and change to sd card. then find the h910 zip file and install it. then go ahead and reboot your phone, you will have a rooted android 7 rom. you will also have signal. then download supersu from the play store and open it to have root.
OREO
use the file that you downloaded if you selected oreo - it should be a zip. it will be called something along the lines of full stock oreo rooted. DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT UNZIP THE FILE. place it on a pre formatted micro sd card. also, go to your root package folder and find the twrp image file and put that on your sd card. then go get the mk200 zip file and also place that on your sd card. then, place the battery and sd card back in your phone. also, unplug the phone. then, hold down the volume down key and hold hold the power key. once you see the lg logo, release the power key and immediately hold the power key again. then, you should get a screen that asks if you want to reset your phone. use your volume keys to navigate and select yes, then again confirm it. then, after letting it reboot, it should go into twrp. once there, go to wipe\and select format data. then type yes to confirm. then, go back to the main screen and click wipe again. go ahead and click advanced and wipe your dalvik cache. once done, go to home screen and click install. select the select storage option down at the bottom and change to sd card. then find the oreo full rooted zip and install it then, install the mk2000 file. after you have done this, click install image and select the twrp. the reason you need to re flash this is because that oreo file re installs the stock recovery. then install the twrp. now reboot your phone. you will have a rooted android 8 rom. you will also have signal. then download a magisk 6.0 manager apk from chrome browser to have root.
IF this worked and your enjoying root give me a thanks.

This is redundant to the existing h910 root guide, all you did was copy their work and re-post it

Yes, that is why i gave them credit. However, It is more noob friendly and takes the time to explain what they are doing to their own phones as well as give them the option for nougat or oreo, something that none of the other guides have.

Ok, so I did it sucessfully, it's was still very complicated for me as some info is vague for a beginner. But after searching and retrying, and retrying, it worked. but go to runningnak3d post to get more info, and he wanted me to use sd card to root, but that did not work for me.. Your method worked for me. Thanks

+1 for mentioning me and @runningnak3d
you could break up the long paragraphs and bullet style the steps in order so it's easy to follow
theirs a video here of the steps and how the command windows should look > https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jnRWnSHLGSc
this is where allot get confused in the guide.
I also don't remember you mentioning doing the battery pull after STEP1 when the phone sometimes hangs then run STEP2
I would also change the link to the H915 kdz to the android file host file in case LG changes it.
Their was a guy recently that could not get LGUP working you could make note that you may need the 32 bit VS 2010 > https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads
Any how, the guide is OK and the steps are not that bad, after a few tries most anyone can learn it.

alright, thank you so much for the advice! 1. i don't want to switch to bullets because when i was trying runningnak3d's guide, it seemed overwhelming. also people can comment on the step number that they were lost at. 2. i will change the kdz to something else if the file does change. i did in fact mention the battery pull step, if you ever need to find something in a page, hit control and f and then search the page.. i will add the 32 bit file. Thanks!

What a way to rip-off runningnak3d's guide.
I mean, I can understand rewriting it... I did the same. But, just to parse it out for me to follow better.
But your statement "...there was no root guides available..." is just BS.
Below is my guide... for me to do the process.
Creation date on the text file was November 7, 2017. Just over a week after runningnak3d made the original post.
Difference is, I didn't feel the need to post someone else's work, in an attempt to try claiming credit for it, due to nothing more than a "rewrite".
What you meant to do is this: (FIFY)
Cool guide for rooting your LG V20. Works for 20h, too!

Search in You Tube for "How to Root install TWRP for LG V20 H910 Edition!" from user NewTechBegins. This is very good video tutorial, step by step.

Hello, so nothing happens for me after I enter the code into terminal emulator, what am I missing?

After all these done I'm rebooted to secure start-up where I need to enter password. Tried my 4 digit VIN and didn't work. As suggested earlier in this thread I pulled battery and wipe everything and install Oreo_full_rooted.zip, mk2000, and TWRP 3.3.1-0. It boots up the same to the secure start-up.
I might have done differently in process.
1. H91510e_00_VTR_CA_OP_1205.kdz I downloaded did NOT match MD5 on its download page. Tried twice and it was the same. I went ahead and used it.
2. I ran into "adb server is out of date, killing.." message but was able to download an adbfix and somehow got through
3. STEP1.BAT and the rest of BAT were not accepted in Win10 powershell so I had to enter them by hand and it went smoothly with no error
4. I used twrp 3.3.1-0 as suggested in NewTechBegins' youtube clip
5. Phone boots into scramble messages like shattered warning sign before LG logo appeals. It will eventually enter twrp or secure start-up after some wait. Takes longer than it should, 5 minutes or so.
Wish to stay on Oreo but might try the 10R Rom if I have no other choice.
Please help.
(Secure start-up appeared the first time after step 3 where it was supposedly be a green screen and I can pull battery. It didn't. It went to secure start-up. I pulled battery anyways and rebooted into TWRP, I was asked to enter password again. After a few wrong attempts I was able to bypass it and enter TWRP to proceed with install)
edit: Eventually succeed by not installing TWRP after flashing OREO and MK2000. Rebooted into Secured Start-up again, pull battery and rebooted into FACTORY Recovery and deleted all user data from there. Rebooted and Android setup began.
Note: BE SURE TO FORMAT DATA AGAIN in TWRP after flashing OREO and MK2000 to have a clean start. Would be nice if it was mentioned in this tutorial.

i am making this post because i have an lg v20 running 20h. there was no root guides available, so i decided to root mine using an older guide. it succeeded, but was very hard and time consuming. Being a noob at the time, i was also extremely nervous that i could possibly brick my phone or screw something up. i didn't, and no part of this should brick yours either. ***However - if you do somehow break your device in any way, that is on you. by completing these steps, you assume full responsibility. now that we have that out of the way, lets continue. at the end of this guide, you should have a rooted device with your choice of os (7 or 8 - or even a custom rom if you choose!). you should also have twrp. this guide would not have been possible without users runningnak3d and clsA
**** Also, during this Proccess, Your Phone WILL be wiped clean!!! don't forget to back up photos, videos, etc...*****
don't download any other files than from this guide.
1. download these files (required) https://lg-firmwares.com/downloads-file/4578/H91510e_00_VTR_CA_OP_1205.kdz (for a rootable os that we can flash, - get this also (required) https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/guide-patch-lgup-to-unlock-features-t3652222 this program is called lg up and has been patched to work with this phone. you will also need this. https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1322778262903990218. these are the root files and need to be all in the same folder as where lg up is installed. you will also need to have access to fastboot and need to have adb installed. that is pretty easy, give it a google search if you still need help.
if you are running 32 bit, get this https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2977003/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads
this is the OS. get nougat, which has like three less steps (you can't upgrade to oreo on this os once rooted) or scroll down and get the oreo file. nougat (really old version) https://drive.google.com/file/d/1S82HVNt2rAtXgBY499IBJnoCVFnpCf_X/view
Oreo - get this first file, and the ones under it. https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=1322778262904015326
***https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=283977*** You have to have this file if getting oreo. if you chose nougat, then don't get this.
2. Now that you have everything downloaded and installed, put your phone into download mode. (power it off, hold the volume down button and plug in a usb c cable attached to your pc. don't stop holding volume down until you see download mode.)
3. once it is in download mode, open up lg up. select your device, (it should be in standby mode, according to lg up) and click dump (this is a total backup of the phone, you are lucky you know this right now, I didn't when i rooted mine) . it will bring up a file explorer, select where you want it to save to. (I chose my desktop). once you have a folder selected., it will bring up a bunch of options for partitions. click select all and uncheck user data. ****Make SURE that you don't unplug your phone during any part of this process or any other process in this guide, it will permanently brick it. ***** ow that you have selected everything but userdata, click start.
4. once that finishes, you will have made a full backup of your phone in case something goes wrong.
then click the partition DL button and select the h915 v10e kdz file (the file that i said was the rootable os we can flash) (the first file you downloaded). make sure bin file stays checked. then click start. once that finishes, your phone should automatically reboot into an old nougat operating system. then go to settings, enable developer options, and turn on usb debugging. that is easy, if you can't figure it out, google is your friend. now you should have no cellular signal. this is not the permanent ROM.
5. go to the play store and download terminal emulator for android. (once usb debugging has been enabled
then go ahead and go to the folder where you extracted the root files/package. hold shift and right click to open a command windows there or powershell, whatever your pc says. open 2 of those windows. then, in the first one, type, adb logcat -s dirtysanta
****don't close this window.*****
then in the other window, type STEP1.BAT
*****don't close this window.***** It may take a minute, but after a while it will let you type again. once you can, type run-as con
chmod 0777 /storage/emulated/0/*
6. then, pull up the window you used the logcat command in. leave it there so you can watch it
then, on your phone, go to the terminal emulator and type applypatch /system/bin/atd /storage/emulated/0/dirtysanta
once you do that, glance at the logcat window. once it says to run step 2, go to the window where you typed step1.bat. type STEP2.BAT
at this point, your phone should go ahead and reboot and say fastboot mode up at the top. now, go to your window where you typed all the .bats and type STEP3.BAT. wait until your phone reboots and you will see a screen saying that you can;'t use your phone. this is bogus, just ignore it and wait like 10-15 seconds for it to get past that screen. then it will boot that android and you should get a green screen.
Now, quickly, pull the battery from your phone. leave it out for a little while while we prepare the next steps.
If you want oreo, scroll to where it says OREO in capital letters. if you want nougat, scroll to where it says NOUGAT.
NOUGAT
use the file that you downloaded if you selected nougat - it should be a zip. it will be called h910-10r. DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT UNZIP THE FILE. place it on a pre formatted micro sd card. then, place the battery and sd card back in your phone. also, unplug the phone. then, hold down the volume down key and hold hold the power key. once you see the lg logo, release the power key and immediately hold the power key again. then, you should get a screen that asks if you want to reset your phone. use your volume keys to navigate and select yes, then again confirm it. then, after letting it reboot, it should go into twrp. once there, go to wipe\and select format data. then type yes to confirm. then, go back to the main screen and click wipe again. go ahead and click advanced and wipe your dalvik cache. once done, go to home screen and click install. select the select storage option down at the bottom and change to sd card. then find the h910 zip file and install it. then go ahead and reboot your phone, you will have a rooted android 7 rom. you will also have signal. then download supersu from the play store and open it to have root.
OREO
use the file that you downloaded if you selected oreo - it should be a zip. it will be called something along the lines of full stock oreo rooted. DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT UNZIP THE FILE. place it on a pre formatted micro sd card. also, go to your root package folder and find the twrp image file and put that on your sd card. then go get the mk200 zip file and also place that on your sd card. then, place the battery and sd card back in your phone. also, unplug the phone. then, hold down the volume down key and hold hold the power key. once you see the lg logo, release the power key and immediately hold the power key again. then, you should get a screen that asks if you want to reset your phone. use your volume keys to navigate and select yes, then again confirm it. then, after letting it reboot, it should go into twrp. once there, go to wipe\and select format data. then type yes to confirm. then, go back to the main screen and click wipe again. go ahead and click advanced and wipe your dalvik cache. once done, go to home screen and click install. select the select storage option down at the bottom and change to sd card. then find the oreo full rooted zip and install it then, install the mk2000 file. after you have done this, click install image and select the twrp. the reason you need to re flash this is because that oreo file re installs the stock recovery. then install the twrp. now reboot your phone. you will have a rooted android 8 rom. you will also have signal. then download a magisk 6.0 manager apk from chrome browser to have root.
IF this worked and your enjoying root give me a thanks.

I didn't do crossflashing i first installed twrp throught dirty santa which then you have to open from recovery then there is android 8.0 h910 stock rom pre rooted i used or you can use your custom rom to flash then there is an kernel mk2000 file also to flash from twrp after you installed new rom for fixing errors like static screen and like that thats it also if you flash android 8.0 stock of h910 rom you will get a password during booting process just attempt it wrongs for many trys wrotten on it until you see wipe the data prompt and you will factory reset your phone and its ready to go maybe you will be promoted to twrp so you have to factory reset through wipe option ok and you are good to go one thing do it only on h910 not other model there is 0% chance of hard bricking your phone if you did this and no signal problem
Also to understand more go a see my qna with author of this post in this post obviously ok or if you meed more help reply me i will text you

reply me on that I am online all the time but not online on XDA all the time ok

Installed twrp no problem. Had installation issues (error 7) and edited the file. Tried it again and came up with error 1. Saw someone else on xda say to extract the boot img and mount to the recovery partition successfully. Welp, I guess I wasn't so lucky. I can not get into twrp recovery or any recovery and my v20 (910) boots into the Lg android splash screen. My desktop can not see any adb device but it registers a device being plugged in. What's the verdict, soft or hard bricked? Everything was cleared besides twrp prior to error 7 and 1.

[Guide]How to root Samsung Galaxy C9 pro (SM-C9000)

Hi! After struggling in rooting my C9 pro (SM-C9000, TGY) due to the lack of a proper guide, I decided to provide my guide to the community.
Of course, I don't take responsibility for damages etc. etc. Read the entirety of the guide before doing anything.
Useful shortcuts: Holding down power+volume down for a couple seconds force reboots from almost anywhere. Vol up+home+power while booting boots into recovery. Vol down+home+power boots into download (odin) mode.
Step 1) Fetch the required files(sorry I can't post direct links):
Nougat 7.1.1 firmware from sammobile
Oreo 8.0 firmware from sammobile
Odin https://www.xda-developers.com/update-firmware-any-samsung-phone/
Magisk Manager https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-install-magisk/ (The link that says "Download the latest Magisk Manager APK here")
ADB https://www.xda-developers.com/install-adb-windows-macos-linux/
CROM Service apk from apkmirror
Step 2) Prepare the files
Unlock developer options on your phone by spamming Build Number in Settings> About Phone> Software Information. Enable USB debugging from developer options. Connect your phone to your PC via cable. Extract ADB (platform-tools) on your desktop (or other location). Extract Oreo firmware. There should be 5 files. Copy the one that starts with AP into platform-tools folder. Open the platform-tools folder. Hold down shift and right click inside the folder. Choose "Open PowerShell window here" from the context menu. Type or copy-paste
Code:
.\adb devices
to start ADB. On your phone, check "always allow on this PC" and click OK when prompted. Enter the code again and check if a device appears on the list. Then type
Code:
.\adb push AP_C9000ZHU1CSC1_CL14667562_QB22709761_REV00_user_low_ship_MULTI_CERT_meta.tar.md5 /sdcard/
.(Change the name of the file corresponding to yours. You can change the destination to another folder in your phone. Ex. /sdcard/download/) This will transfer the file from your PC to your phone. Do not drag and drop the file. This might corrupt it, causing a bootloop upon installiation. (Happened to me initially. Recovered & used the push command to get it to work.). Transfer Magisk Manager's apk to your phone or download it directly from your phone(you can drag and drop this one, as it won't install if corrupted(it won't corrupt)). Install Magisk Manager on the phone(Enable sideloading if asked). In the app, touch the topmost install button and touch install again in the next screen. You will have two options: "Download zip only" and "Select and patch a file". Choose "Select and patch a file", then locate the AP file you transferred to the device. Magisk manager will patch the file and generate magisk_patched.tar in /sdcard/download/. In ADB, type
Code:
.\adb pull /sdcard/download/magisk_patched.tar
This will transfer it to the platform-tools folder. Again, don't use windows explorer to transfer. That will most certainly corrupt the file.
Step 2.5) Backup
Backup your data (you can use smart switch desktop program paired with mobile app to backup most of the stuff). Remove your google account from the device.
Step 3) Install Nougat 7.1.1
Extract Nougat 7.1.1 firmware. Extract odin. Run Odin.exe (might have version in name). Click OK. Factory reset your phone (You can do so from settings or recovery mode.). After the reset, reboot into download mode. It will ask if you're sure you want to install unofficial software, choose continue (If I don't recall incorrectly, the button for that was vol up). Plug your phone into your PC. Odin log should say "added!!" and you should see your device in one of the rectangles above. Now select the tar.md5 files extracted from the 7.1.1 firmware. Click the BL button, locate the BL_etcetc.tar.md5 file, click open. It will check the md5 for a second then let you click the next button. After choosing the BL(bootloader), AP(system), CP(radio) and CSC(localization) files (USERDATA button should remain empty, HOME_CSC file has no use) make sure only F.reset time and auto reboot are selected in options. Click start to begin. After flashing, it will do another factory reset and show you the setup.
Step 4) Unlock Bootloader
Skip everything in setup, then unlock develper options and you should see "OEM Unlocking" option that was removed in OREO firmware in there. Enable it. Next transfer the CROM service apk to your device (or download it directly). Install the app. Open it. Unlock the bootloader. (This step is required because C9000 is a Chinese phone)
Step 5) Install Oreo again
Boot into download and connect to odin. You can use the reset button to empty the buttons. Now select BL, CP and CSC files from the extracted oreo firmware. For AP, choose magisk_patched.tar . Start. If the installiation fails, you didn't unlock the Bootloader properly. The phone will reboot and factory reset a couple times. When it boots up, you'll have magisk installed.
Step 6) Things to do after rooting(optional)
First of all, magisk can hide root from Google, but not Samsung. Samsung Health, Knox secure container, Maximum power saving mode and Samsung pay won't work after you root. NFC will keep turning on on its own unless you uninstall Samsung pay. A samsung package (I'm not sure about the name but I think it was security log agent) will keep sending an unblockable notification offering to unroot. Uninstall that too, and you'll have a stable experience.
Recovering from fails:
If download mode refuses to install because of unofficial binaries, the bootloader isn't properly unlocked. Wait a couple seconds and force reboot with the key combination. Since it couldn't flash the system, that should reboot back to download mode (or recovery. in that case, choose "reboot to bootloader"). Install the official firmware, unlock bootloader and try again.
If the magisk_patched.tar file gets corruped and you flash the corrupted file successfully, your device will get into a bootloop. After the install, odin orders the phone to reboot into recovery to factory reset, but since the system image is corrupted, it won't be able to boot and produce a kernel panic. This will cause the phone to reboot, which will fail and cause it to try to reboot again. Since the phone doesn't get past the splash screen, this bootloop cannot be interrupted by button shortcuts. You should wait for the battery to die out for the bootloop to end. (It should take a day at max. Wrap a towel around it to block the vibration sounds if you want) After battery gets depleted, you need to perform a quick maneuver. You should plug the phone into a power supply (preferably your computer) while holding down volume down+home+power buttons. If you do it right, it will boot into download mode. (Otherwise, it will bootloop again. Simply unplug, wait for it to stop and try again) Flash the official firmware and repatch the AP file. Just in case you run into this issue, I recommend having less than 10% charge in your phone while flashing, just to make the wait time shorter.
Important: Check your firmware's baseband version from settings before flashing. In C9000ZHU1CSC1, CSC1 is the system and U1 is the bootloader version. Compare the bootloader version to the firmware you're going to flash and make sure they match. You can't downgrade bootloader versions. Flashing a previous version will brick your phone. (Probably permanently) This shouldn't be an issue since sm-C9000 has only one bootloader version, but check it anyways just to be sure.

Hi! After struggling in rooting my C9 pro (SM-C9000, TGY) due to the lack of a proper guide, I decided to provide my guide to the community.
Of course, I don't take responsibility for damages etc. etc. Read the entirety of the guide before doing anything.
Useful shortcuts: Holding down power+volume down for a couple seconds force reboots from almost anywhere. Vol up+home+power while booting boots into recovery. Vol down+home+power boots into download (odin) mode.
Step 1) Fetch the required files(sorry I can't post direct links):
Nougat 7.1.1 firmware from sammobile
Oreo 8.0 firmware from sammobile
Odin https://www.xda-developers.com/update-firmware-any-samsung-phone/
Magisk Manager https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-install-magisk/ (The link that says "Download the latest Magisk Manager APK here")
ADB https://www.xda-developers.com/install-adb-windows-macos-linux/
CROM Service apk from apkmirror
Step 2) Prepare the files
Unlock developer options on your phone by spamming Build Number in Settings> About Phone> Software Information. Enable USB debugging from developer options. Connect your phone to your PC via cable. Extract ADB (platform-tools) on your desktop (or other location). Extract Oreo firmware. There should be 5 files. Copy the one that starts with AP into platform-tools folder. Open the platform-tools folder. Hold down shift and right click inside the folder. Choose "Open PowerShell window here" from the context menu. Type or copy-paste to start ADB. On your phone, check "always allow on this PC" and click OK when prompted. Enter the code again and check if a device appears on the list. Then type .(Change the name of the file corresponding to yours. You can change the destination to another folder in your phone. Ex. /sdcard/download/) This will transfer the file from your PC to your phone. Do not drag and drop the file. This might corrupt it, causing a bootloop upon installiation. (Happened to me initially. Recovered & used the push command to get it to work.). Transfer Magisk Manager's apk to your phone or download it directly from your phone(you can drag and drop this one, as it won't install if corrupted(it won't corrupt)). Install Magisk Manager on the phone(Enable sideloading if asked). In the app, touch the topmost install button and touch install again in the next screen. You will have two options: "Download zip only" and "Select and patch a file". Choose "Select and patch a file", then locate the AP file you transferred to the device. Magisk manager will patch the file and generate magisk_patched.tar in /sdcard/download/. In ADB, type This will transfer it to the platform-tools folder. Again, don't use windows explorer to transfer. That will most certainly corrupt the file.
Step 2.5) Backup
Backup your data (you can use smart switch desktop program paired with mobile app to backup most of the stuff). Remove your google account from the device.
Step 3) Install Nougat 7.1.1
Extract Nougat 7.1.1 firmware. Extract odin. Run Odin.exe (might have version in name). Click OK. Factory reset your phone (You can do so from settings or recovery mode.). After the reset, reboot into download mode. It will ask if you're sure you want to install unofficial software, choose continue (If I don't recall incorrectly, the button for that was vol up). Plug your phone into your PC. Odin log should say "added!!" and you should see your device in one of the rectangles above. Now select the tar.md5 files extracted from the 7.1.1 firmware. Click the BL button, locate the BL_etcetc.tar.md5 file, click open. It will check the md5 for a second then let you click the next button. After choosing the BL(bootloader), AP(system), CP(radio) and CSC(localization) files (USERDATA button should remain empty, HOME_CSC file has no use) make sure only F.reset time and auto reboot are selected in options. Click start to begin. After flashing, it will do another factory reset and show you the setup.
Step 4) Unlock Bootloader
Skip everything in setup, then unlock develper options and you should see "OEM Unlocking" option that was removed in OREO firmware in there. Enable it. Next transfer the CROM service apk to your device (or download it directly). Install the app. Open it. Unlock the bootloader. (This step is required because C9000 is a Chinese phone)
Step 5) Install Oreo again
Boot into download and connect to odin. You can use the reset button to empty the buttons. Now select BL, CP and CSC files from the extracted oreo firmware. For AP, choose magisk_patched.tar . Start. If the installiation fails, you didn't unlock the Bootloader properly. The phone will reboot and factory reset a couple times. When it boots up, you'll have magisk installed.
Step 6) Things to do after rooting(optional)
First of all, magisk can hide root from Google, but not Samsung. Samsung Health, Knox secure container, Maximum power saving mode and Samsung pay won't work after you root. NFC will keep turning on on its own unless you uninstall Samsung pay. A samsung package (I'm not sure about the name but I think it was security log agent) will keep sending an unblockable notification offering to unroot. Uninstall that too, and you'll have a stable experience.
Recovering from fails:
If download mode refuses to install because of unofficial binaries, the bootloader isn't properly unlocked. Wait a couple seconds and force reboot with the key combination. Since it couldn't flash the system, that should reboot back to download mode (or recovery. in that case, choose "reboot to bootloader"). Install the official firmware, unlock bootloader and try again.
If the magisk_patched.tar file gets corruped and you flash the corrupted file successfully, your device will get into a bootloop. After the install, odin orders the phone to reboot into recovery to factory reset, but since the system image is corrupted, it won't be able to boot and produce a kernel panic.

Have you tried this method and phone working fine will there will be any problem if i use this method for rooting c9000?

Yes, I did root my SM-C9000 using this method, and it is working nicely. Obviously I lost access to Secure Folder and Samsung Pay. You should be able to install the Play Store version of Samsung Health. Maximum Power Saving froze the phone the first two times I enabled it, but it's working fine now. One unexpected caveat is that mobile hotspot started to turn itself off if mobile data is enabled even though my carrier has no restrictions on using hotspot. You can't share your data connection using Bluetooth or usb cable neither. You can still use the hotspot for creating a local network. Other than those, I didn't experience any problems after rooting. While I was rooting, I did the mistake of using MTP to transfer the image and as a result my phone bootlooped for half a day but if you follow the instructions, that won't be a problem.
Of course, I don't guarantee anything and don't take responsibility, but there is no reason anything should go wrong.

My base band R16NW.C9000ZHU1CSC1, model number SM-C9000, android 8.0.0...
I have never rooted any phones in my life. What should i do? I search on internet but i didnt found any spesific things about "R16NW.C9000ZHU1CSC1" can you help me? Those options will work for me to ?

Sorry for responding late. Yes, that is the exact model that I have and rooted using the method in the post. If you feel confident, you can follow trough it and root your phone. You can grab the required firmware from Sammobile. Keep in mind that after rooting some features might stop working (like hotspot and knox-related features). Good luck!

I got the same model of Samsung phone. I follow the steps but till step five, when i press open the files in odin and press start button, the odin will disappear in my computer. Then i try again and it failed. My phone shows: unsuppoted dev types. Here are my photos. Do you have any ideas? And i dunno how can i redo it again to root my phone. Would love to see helps from you, thanks!

Sorry for the late response. Searching that on the internet, it seems you might be using an old version of Odin. Please make sure you're using 3.13.1 and try again

Enjoy & Join ?!​

In this first post I start off with a STEP BY STEP ROOT GUIDE. It's very detailed & hopefully n00b friendly!
Here it is:
In your phone's about section press build number several times, then developer options are activated,
you can find them in the system section of settings when you exit about section.
enable developer options, it is recommended to disable system auto update there, then enable oem unlocking.
(if you can't find this entry, enter a sim, try again. if you still can't find this entry, set the system date 21-30 days back or forth, then reboot. if the entry is still not there, search here on xda for solutions to this known problem or google it.)
go to your pc, download your exact firmware (the one you have installed on your device- look at build date & region in about section of device).
download 7zip zstandard! -with lz4 extracting support.
extract zip of your firmware. there you have 4 tar files. extract the AP tar file, inside are many files. extract smth like boot.img.lz4 or boot.lz4, then you have boot.img. this is the file you need.
in 7zip mark it & press add to archive, select tar in the screen that pops up. enter the path where you want to create the archive.
now you have a new boot.img.tar or boot.tar file,
that you need for the rooting process.
copy this file to the root of your internal storage of your android phone (/sdcard, /storage/emulated/0, or any folder that suits you best).
download & install latest magisk manager on your android.
open magisk manager, in the start screen you find some options. one of them is: preserve force encryption. uncheck them all.
then choose: install magisk, then: patch file. you will be directed to a file manager, there select your created boot.tar file.
now magisk creates a patched boot.tar file for you & renames it as such.
you will find it in the same directory as your file, or in /sdcard/download.
copy it to your pc. in your pc rename it in boot_.tar!
download odin latest! version.
download latest! samsung usb drivers / latest samsung usb drivers for your specific phone model, install just samsung usb drivers & reboot your pc.
enable usb debugging in developer options of your phone.
turn off your phone.
connect your phone with usb cable to pc.
reboot your phone to download mode: when starting vol up + vol down + power button at the same time.
you come to a light blue warning screen. press power up once again, you entered download mode!
in your pc run odin as administrator.
it should recognize your device. you should see in the window on the left side in odin: added!
on the right side in odin are several buttons. one of them is BL. press that & go to the path of your boot_.tar. select your boot_.tar.
odin checks & in a sec you should see a checkmark next to BL.
now set some options in odin: - check flash reset time! - uncheck auto reboot! let all the other options untouched.
now you will flash your magisk patched boot_.tar to your android device: press start in odin.
you will see the ongoing progress in the upper row & in the log window.
you should see reset in blue color & when you see pass in green color, the flashing process was successful! almost done!
now on your phone: you're still in download mode, see the completed progress bar.
press vol down + power at the same time for 7 sec.
your phone will reboot. on the logo splash screen's upper left corner you will see a yellow entry: set warranty bit: kernel.
now the phone will reboot, reset. now your phone will show you a grey screen with a reset button, if you can't click it, no panic, just turn your screen shortly off & on again & then you can click it. phone will reboot again 2 times. don't panic! let it do its thing.
note that your phone will be reset through this process!
now you boot in your phone & the start menu appears.
you can go through it as usual. you should turn secure boot with lock off, choose just the normal phone lock.
at first turn developer options on & see if oem unlocking is there & enabled. (it usually is.) if not, turn it on again!
if it's not there after root, look here in XDA for solutions or google it. (but this is very rare on this phone, that it's not there after root)
leave oem unlocking & developer options always on! (unless you want to unroot)
turn system auto update off in dev options!
you can reinstall magisk manager & check if magisk is installed.
congrats, you're rooted!
now you can do everything that's neccessary & useful after root!
Guide follows soon!
[important: better safe than sorry: in your phone, right after rooting, enable developer options again & look if oem unlock is ticked on. let it always be ticked on! also leave developer options on! if not so, then do it immediately. otherwise it could be overwritten by security in your phone & you could lose root, your phone could be reset, or in the worst case your phone will be blocked to boot. never turn off oem unlocking!]
I will add some files soon here, to make it easier for you.
but if you follow this guide step by step, you should succeed, normally.
I've tested this procedure several times on my own with this phone, with different firmwares.
I can confirm that this guide is functioning well!
if you need further help just post me!
[please think about the steps you made prior to the rooting process also after root. don't forget your phone has become reset & some settings eg oem unlocking & others need to be re-applied !]
please use your mind! ?
Happy Rooting! ?
credits: to everyone I learned from!
Rooting, Flashing & everything you do on your device, you do on your own risk!
You take responsibility for your own actions!
Please consider before you copy my guides, to give me a thanks & if you wanna use my guides elsewhere, give me credits there, respectively!
This Guide/My Thread will be further improved in form, speech & content.
So much more to come in the future!
Please feel free to post me your thoughts, recommendations & criticism!
You're heartly invited to participate in my thread! ?

I have the root on my j410G following your guide thanks ...:good:

@JhonJC
you're welcome!
fine that you succeeded!

I used this method to root the j7 prime with new binary.
But i flashed boot patched as AP in odin. Works fine.

great to read that! odin normally flashes the whole firmware -including the boot.img- through ap, so pushed your boot.img automatically to the right partition.
but I still recommend flashing through BL. think I've read about it in the magisk documentations, but I will check that again, investigate further. thank you for info.

The method works but if you turn off the phone and turn it on you are greeted by a "this phone has been flashed with unauthorized software & is locked" screen.

@zeratos I had this too, in the beginning, when I experimented with rooting this phone. have you left developer options + oem unlocking kept on? this is essential for this phone, I've written this before in the above guide. another thing might be, if you boot into the stock recovery, then it detects, that your phone has been modified, refuses to boot + brings you to the screen that you mentioned. don't boot into stock recovery after rooting this phone, don't try to reset your phone through stock recovery or android settings! instead, get twrp or orange fox + flash it through odin. do everything then with your custom recovery, or flash everything through magisk manager!
it is also important to tick off all 3 options in magisk manager start screen and disable all unnecessary security features in your android, such as secure startup.
unfortunately, with the newer (samsung) phones, rooting is not so easy peasy anymore like it was back in the days. they gave us some really annoying hurdles.
I hope I could help.
so thanks for mentioning this, so others with the same problem can find it!
...................................... ~............................................
*can you please speak in your own person? 'you' suggests, that everyone, following my root guide will experience the same as you did. that's not true + I'm bit sensitive about truth + facts being falsified. no offence, thank you.*

2.) https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...ecovery-unofficial-twrp-3-1-1-galaxy-t4046189

@zeratos, could you get around your problem?
as I don't know what exactly went on on your phone,
I don't know if I could help you.
I just can try to tell you what can help you.
it's always good to go to magisk settings, magisk section + enable: hide magisk from various forms of detection.
next: it doesn't hurt to disable google services + other google apps until your root is stable.
the same for builtin samsung apps.
that helps preventing to trigger knox.
best is to say bye to google services/google apps at all + go with microg. then you can install custom playstore for microg + make purchases + all. not so easy btw. but if you figured it out, everything works very well.
if you already solved your problem, please tell us how you did it, could help others.
I just can tell, if you don't mind to say bye bye to all that proprietary stuff on your phone, root + everything else works almost perfect on that phone.
plus you have the free memory for all the good tools!
if you want to leave google services & co installed after root, at least flash the magisk module 'universal gms doze' , disable some permissions, run greenify + hibernate some apps strictly.
you get a much better effect with also xposed, (the original magisk xposed). but that's again not so easy at first. but you would already need it for microg, for the licence patch, (assuming you don't do the licence patch from the command line or use smali patcher).

Hello world!
Last year, I attempted to install a custom ROM into my device (J410F). I have no idea what is the name of the ROM but I know is compatible (from the updater script). But, anytime I tried to install it, Error 1 always appear. What do I have to do? Install Orangefox, chmod it, or just give up?
Edit 1: It's HavocOS. Some of my LineageOS in my SD Card output Error 7, and some output Error 1.

thank you---- thank you----- thank you ------ i could give you a big kissss.. lol.

This works. But if you don't care about the laggy experience that it provides (OneUI on 1GB RAM heh) and the broken camera app, then it's good for you.
