Hi All,
I am using a Nexus 6P and running Android 8.0 final build.
Trying to root my phone, and am a rookie at this with no knowledge at all. Need help with the rooting process, as in step-by-step process.
The bootloader is already unlocked, and I have the platform-tools installed on my Macbook with TWRP 3.1.1-0-angler.img as well, and SuperSU latest zip version.
Somehow, the root just didn't take.
Will appreciate all the help that I can get.
Thanks!
Ramanathan

I rooted my S4 awhile back but never put a rom on it well I got the 4.4.4 update and didn't really care but now I am having a serious battery drain by the Android System and need to run so apps that require root access. Since I was already rooted is there a different process to Re-Root the device or do I just follow the standard rooting procedure for the 4.4.4 NJ4. Will I have to wipe everything also to do it or will I be able to keep my phone in tacked. Could you point me to the best method for my situation it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance for you help.
If you have custom recovery, flash the update super su zip.
If not, you might have to go through the rooting process.
Hello XDA,
I need some instruction on how to root and install cwm recovery on my nexus player. I’m currently trying to achieve this with a live boot of bbqlinux for sdk support. I managed to unlock the bootloader. I tried to gain root by installing SuperSu from the app store, but no dice. If anyone can give me insight on what commands/directories/steps needed to accomplish this, it would be greatly appreciated. Also, I have all the files I need on the internal storage of the device.
Thanks
UPDATE - Bootloader is unlocked. When I try to boot the root.img, i get a softbrick and sent back to the bootloader. USB Debugging and unknown sources on.
UPDATE - I was unable to gain root privilege with the stock rom. Soo, I flashed cm12.1 N. Took two flashing, but it lives.
I'm a newbie to this, so I'll be very very grateful if I get step by step instructions. I need to do all of this without a PC (don't have access to one), so please help me out!
So after getting my new mobile (4gb if that matters) today, I was thinking of using Kingo root to root, then use Flashify to flash TWRP, new ROM, Magisk, and Viper. Please guide me!
First you need to unlock bootloader with help of PC then flash twrp and take backup of old rom and flash new rom. You cannot root without unlocked bootloader.
Hello there,
I've unlocked my bootloader and succesfully install TWRP. But I don't understand anything from the guides. I don't know which method to use kload, hurupdater, twrp? Is there any step-by-step guide for it? I am really clueless
hi all,
I'm very new to the android modding and rooting scene, and am not sure how to proceed here. I have followed this thread in order to root, and I have succeeded. My only problem is installing Magisk. I've tried a few versions but its all the same, its either something about an "ERROR:1" or magisk outright causes my phone not to boot until i flash the uninstaller .zip.
I genuinely do not know what to do here, and most guides ive noticed are outdated.
i just wanna spoof in pokemon go lol, help a sister out here pls
EDIT: ased someone on reddit and he'd said to just use magisk manager to patch the stock boot.img, and i flashed the patched img and it worked!
