hello,
recently purchased an s2 tab sm-t810 running 7.0 out of the box and want to root it in order to have Xposed. I looked at the root guides you guys have here and wasnt sure if they would work for 7.0. Can someone please direct me to the right place?
I appreciate it ahead of time!
If reliable root methods exist without use of a PC for 7.0 that would be even be AWESOME-RR
I am not sure. I have a T810 on the way. Can you install TWRP via ODIN, and then install root from TWRP?

Thanks to Google's new Safety Net API, magisk is the best option at rooting devices 6.0 and above.
Yes, that's what I am running. I had a bad time getting TWRP installed. I kept getting a weird screen instead of TWRP and I used ODIN 3.12.3 and TWRP 3.1.0-1 and then tried 3.1.1.1 that failed too. I finally ended up using ODIN 3.12.5 and TWRP 3.1.0-1 I also had flash the tablet back to 6.01, and then back to 7.0 as when I tried to use ODIN to reflash directly to 7.0 again but it basically didn't do anything so I had to flash backward 1st. I think the partitions for my stock ROM were somehow messed up, and flashing back to 6.01 and then back up to 7.0 fixed it. Even with that, I had to use the older TWRP 3.1.0-1 I think that was the worst time I ever had getting a device rooted. I set up the stock ROM, and then backed it up using Titanium backup, and also nandroid backup. After that, I blew out the stock rom, and installed AEX and Substratum. I love AEX. Stable, and very fast and I can still play Netflix even with Netflix not supposing to work with rooted devices. Yay Magisk!

I can't seem to find the answer to this.
I've just flashed the Nougat Factory image for Nexus 6 and want root. Can anyone confirm is the latest SuperSU is compatible? I've flashed TWRP and downloaded the latest SuperSU but just a little hesitant to flash it in case of issues.
Thanks a lot.
Yep I rooted just fine. works ok.

I had no problems with the latest version, which I installed last night (downloaded factory image, extracted to PC and fastboot flashed through bootloader, rebooted to recovery and flashed SuperSU 2.78-SR1).

Perfect. Flashed and working great. Thank you! :good:
If you enjoy having an unknown organization having absolute godlike control over your phone, then sure, use stupidsu.
But if you like to have auditable and sane control over your own device, I would very VERY much suggest that you instead use https://github.com/seSuperuser/AOSP-SU-PATCH

I flashed factory image today and went to Nexus Root Toolkit to root and flash recovery. It went well.
new to Nexus 6, just got Nougat OTA, whats the best way to root and have double tap to wake (will it drain battery big time?) and notification led? pls help, tia
btw I use Mac
Isn't the nexus 6 supposed to be 100% stock Android and with that being able to be rooted by any root method? I know I've read many times that if you want to get into root and hacking to pick up a nexus device as they were easily recoverable and weren't root blocked by any means

Not sure what exactly you're asking but the Nexus 6 is easily rooted when using the proper methods. Unlock the bootloader, fastboot flash TWRP recovery and then flash SuperSU or Magisk in TWRP.
Hello all.,,
I checked and read many thread slowly and steadily ,but couldn't find a good solution to root this phone 3T.
I just bought this Beautiful Device runing so smooth but with Hands tied too hard unable to run many apps and many ads and Bloatwares..
Thought to Root this device ,but all are mostly either Oxygen 3 or Marshmallow or 7.0. Version of ANdroid..and DW Error,is also a major concern to look out..
So Please help me to root this device running O2 4.1.1 (I literally dont want to change the stock,as of now) and Android 7.1.1 ,some simple steps...
Thanks and Regards
Awaiting for replies!!
I'm about to get this phone so I've been doing a lot of research myself. It looks like you can follow the steps in this thread and you can flash supersu through TWRP once you've unlocked the bootloader.
Unlock bootloader.
Flash TWRP.
Flash your preferred root zip in TWRP (SuperSU or Magisk are two good choices, I prefer Magisk).
That's about it...
i too tried the above method,,But I got struck with Logo of TWRP and got enabled only after 6 Hours.. But to my fate,,i'm still running on Stock recovery.. Not on TWRP !!
Use the latest official TWRP (currently 3.1.0-1). Works just fine.
i can relate to your question.
however, i discovered how to root the 3t and flash the usual zips files the finally the freedom rom, on my own.
it was a thrill.
i advise you to just take the blue pill.
I installed Blusparks Version of TWRP ,,but still no use,,SuperSU or Magisk both says My phone is not rooted!!!!
I want to live the Stock ROM and just to root the device,,But the steps are not futile for me!
What I would do if i was you.
Unlock bootloader
Flash TWRP
Flash latest Magisk 13.2 zip
Hey,
Is this method still valid for rooting the 3T?
https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/...wrp-root-nandroid-efs-backup-and-more.475142/
Yes, that is still valid, more or less. Might be a more current version of blue_spark's TWRP (official TWRP is on 3.1.1.2) although the link only says 3.1.1-x, so I don't know what that means. But probably won't make a huge difference.
Can't see what version Magisk is linked (my office network is blocking the link). If you choose Magisk, flash latest version 13.3, especially if you want to hide root (from Snapchat, banking apps, etc.). Older versions of Magisk will fail to hide, due to recent changes Google made to SafetyNet.
And what if we want to flash this beta to a brand new device?
http://downloads.oneplus.net/oneplus-3t/oneplus_3t_oxygenos_openbeta_12/
Should we first unlock the device, then install the TWRP recovery, then flash this beta rom and then root?
Hi guys. I got this device today and am very happy with it.
I'm used to rooting my devices, so I want to root this one too and was hoping you could help me a bit.
I have the Oreo update installed and I see there are some TWRP that work with oreo. What is the best one to use with stock rom? I only want to root so I can install adaway and lucky patcher. Also, if an update comes later this year, like android P or something, can I switch back to the stock recovery, install it and then switch to TWRP again?
So, basically, where can I download stock recovery for Oreo, what TWRP should I use?
Thank you very much

Excellent Question. Highly unlikely to get a reply as you have not included geek terms.

I'll add #geek to the post
I am pretty sure you need TWRP. Here is a good guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10-plus/development/magisk-p10-p10plus-t3752482
I do not know how to update with root. I am afraid it involves reinstalling the original recovery and a factory reset.
Unlocking the bootloader is currently a bit of a hassle since the unlock webpage is down. You'll have to contact Huawei Customer Service to get the code.
So I have spent a lot of time messing around with roms and roots on nougat but I have recently restored my device to factory to use the recent official 8.0 OTA update and I now want to root the device. However with the new kernel Im not sure if I should use a different twrp or I just install the same as I used before with the modified flash command (recovery_ramdisk).
I used to use twrp-3.1.1-0-vtr.img or twrp-3.1.0-0-vtr.img, can I just flash this or do I need an oreo version?
If so what new twrp should I be using?

I guess you should go for 3.2.1-0
I use this since @espaciosalter20 posted it and it works very good, I never noticed any issues. Data encryption works well.
Hi
I recently got a mi mix. Love it so far except the OS. So i figured i would root it and flash lineage on it. I got twrp on it, but the screen froze when it asked for å password to mount it i think. I tried rolling back a few versions, but didnt work either.
Well after that i tried to root the phone (I used fastboot to get twrp installed), but neither of the programs i used worked.
The ones i tried were Kingo Root and Root Genius. Both said that my phone was too solid to root. This is very different from when i rooted my galaxy A5 2016. That was just one click and done.
So what i need help with is either getting twrp working or getting rooted so i can flash through the official twrp app.
All other zips where straight from official sites other than a custom version of twrp
Official TWRP is abandoned, does not work.
Read towards the end of the official TWRP thread, you will find a link to a innofficial version by Blunden-Raupe that works.
