Hi guyz
Please don't get angry, I know its a stupid question but don't want to take any risk, as I live in India and I won't be able to do anything if the phone gets spoiled / bricked.
Which is the most easy way and reliable of rooting the device?
Links to respective threads will be highly appreciated..
Cheers
Enjoy

Some guides go into more detail about certain things than others but the procedure to unlock the bootloader and root that they all describe is basically the same.
Also take a look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010338
It provides a lot of good information and also gives a brief run down of some of the basic fastboot and ADB commands.
You can always use one of the toolkits to root your phone but to me it's better to do it manually. You get a better understanding of how everything works and you're better prepared to deal with any issues that might arise.

You need to do a lot more reading. I suggest you spend a few hours reading up on things before even thinking of touching your phone, everything you need to know is on these forums. Good luck.

I agree, it sounds as if you may not fully understand what you are doing. Read up on what Odin is and what it does and what you are flashing to your phone. Do not want to end up with a brick!

It Succesfully Rooted , Checked Via Google Apps , Safe and Sound
I think you should go for it as well
Sitting on the Fence, wanting to but been so many years (Galaxy Nexus) since I've done this.
Are you unlocked & Rooted ? Which method did you use, how did it go ?
I've seen the "Toolkits" - Do I need drivers first ?
Please share your experience for us "Chickens"
Just use the sticky in this thread. Follow the directions exactly. Works fine.

Lotsa good information there for sure, but that's not what I was interested in.
I've read some stuff that makes me a bit concerned.
One persons phone won't boot now, coincidence that he unlocked the bootloader attempted Root ? Dunno.
Would be helpful to hear some actual experiences that's all ...

I'm with you on this, it would be very helpful.
I want to root it so bad but I have not even the slightest clue on how to use adb command or any of that. I'm surprised this phone being pure Google doesn't have one click root. I have even tried finding some one on Craig's list but no luck.
Oh well I guess I'm stuck on stock

Uhh, are you trolling?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/general/guides-how-to-guides-beginners-t3206928
There is a guide for this
Just an opinion, if you have no clue how to use adb, fastboot, and other things like that, you have no business rooting your phone. Routing can sometimes cause problems that require you to use these tools to fix them
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
There's a step by step guide that walks you through it.
If you have no idea how to root, I have to ask, why do you even want root?
I second posts #4 and #5. Just leave the phone alone and forget you even found this website.
If I have a problem that needs to get fixed only with adb I would b screwed no doubt but I was once pretty savvy with the Roms n stuff like that

Instead of berating you for not having any experience with adb and fastboot (like some other members are doing here) I'm going to encourage you to learn. It isn't hard, once you've learned how to use it you'll wonder why it took you so long. I have a detailed guide here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/general/guides-how-to-guides-beginners-t3206928
It explains everything in detail, in a way that should be easy to understand, from installing adb/fastboot on your PC, to unlocking your bootloader, and everything else. Have a read.

At least make sure you have a backup phone just in case something happens.

Root doesn't affect Doze at all.
or maybe you can use Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit

It's better for a beginner to learn how to use fastboot, it's essential knowledge for anyone who's modifying their device.
Hello everyone, I first want to say thanks and sorry if I posted this in the incorrect section or if it's been discussed before. I want to learn how to make my own custom Rom for my Verizon Samsung Galaxy s7 edge snapdragon ( G935vvrs2apf2). I already have Tickle my android on my windows 10 laptop. If anyone could be nice enough to tell me how to get a stock rom (G935vvrs2apf2) so I can deoxde it and how to you extract it to star modification. Also what else do I need like software, tools, and a guide or how to would be nice. Also since my bootloader is locked how can I back up my rom so I can reflash it incase I mess something up. Thanks to all. I know it's not going to be easy but I rather try and fail than fail because I didn't try at all.

@orgulloso4202, FYI unless you are actively developing a ROM, kernel or recovery, you should not be posting in the development section. Please note the rules for posting in the development section stickied there. I've moved this to the Help section.
Cheers!
This is the best and advice I can give you. 1st you will need a linux machine with a build environment set up and SuperR's Kitchen. 2nd go to this section for any questions and info, there are quite a few helpful people there. I built a few ROMs but it's been a while and I'm not too good at giving directions. I only had partial success with the S7 and pretty much gave up. So there you have it go to the links, read and ask in there. It's your beset bet. I have firmware here you can download and build from. Good luck and have fun.

I really need help with rooting my ZTE Axon 7. I am on the latest software update and on Android 7.1.1. I would like to root my phone but I don't know where to get started or what to do exactly. Can someone please help me and send links or downloads to help me root my device? Thank you
You can't be serious? There are so many guides here on XDA and you ask such a question?

Actually it's not that simple...
You don't get to come here and ask for all of the work to be done for you. Otherwise it happens like with the Galaxy Grand 2, where the phone had a very good dev community but noobs with no interest on spending some time just ruined it to the point that literally only a couple of devs stayed and released CM14.
Also if you ask for someone to send you the exact guides that you need, you'll probably not read anything, and you'll get a beautiful DFU brick...
Do this: First do your homework. Memorize the model on the back of your phone, see if the software model matches the one on the back. As a tip, there are 3 models, the A2017, the A2017G and the A2017U. If you use a file that's not for your model you can start saying goodbye to your brick, or else you'll probably be days trying to fix it (or months like some people). Look at the problems that may come up when rooting and see the way to avoid those. Then look for a guide that suits your model. Download all the files, ensure that all of them work (you'll need Windows on a 64-bit PC), and THEN proceed.
If you have any doubts you can PM me or maybe the maker of the guide, but at least try to do something for yourself! I read more than 10 pages on the guide that I used just to see the problems that may arise and stuff like that. You also should be able to do that. And if you aren't, it's best that you don't try. This is not a Nexus device for you to write 'fastboot oem unlock' and basically finish unlocking the bootloader, this is MUCH more serious...
Use my toolkit: https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/development/tool-axon7toolkit-t3573108
No need for any guides
Just make sure you read all the main posts as there a couple snags
