Hello,
I am a noob at all the rooting stuff, my phone is also rooted with kingroot. But I cannot even call it a root. So I want to Root my Nexus 4 Manually and install SuperSu. When we install SuperSu from twrp, and when we open it, do we get promted to update binary? I have seen a lot of videos on YouTube and they say to install the Android SDK, but which one, on the SDK site, there are 2 options, SDK package and SDK standalone Tools, which to download.
I've downloaded the TWRP and SuperSu on my PC, but to do the rooting we need the SDK. On the other side, I have a big fear of brick, cause I am not that rich to afford a new phone, cause Nexus 4 costed me a tidy pocket. So please give me a way to Root my phone manually and safely from Brick.
Waiting for Reply
I suggest reviewing the nexus 4 guides to mods and ROMs: http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/general/index-nexus-4-roms-kernels-mods-guides-t3201708
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

Dear all,
I just got an old V500 and I plan to install LineageOS which I already did for a couple of other devices. The main reason is the increased safety by having recent Android security patches.
Therefore, I want no rooted device. However, according to the install instructions (https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/v500/install), the installation process of LineageOS for the V500 seems to require rooting.
This again works with the procedure given here (https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g-pad-83/general/guide-root-twrp-customrom-kot49i-v50020d-t2894277) and requires several downloads where even my Windows Defender warned me about downloading. So I am very skeptical and I have five questions:
Is rooting really needed to install LineageOS on the V500?
Will those files I have to download for rooting and opening the bootloader "survive" on the tablet, or are they only needed to "inject" TWRP and LineageOS? Can you guys confirm these files are not obviously malware?
Will the resulting LineageOS installation be rooted (if I do not install the optional ZIP for root)?
Will OTA updates for LineageOS work?
Is there a way using less downloaded stuff from pages offering me malware? So could I use a "more established" rooting tool (say, Kingo Root or something) and then download Flashify from the Play Store to install TWRP and LineageOS? Will that work as well?
Thanks for help!
root is dangerous!
Root is necessary to flash custom recovery.
There are different methods for root.
I chose the Stump method because it does not require an internet connection during root.
If you will be using an application that supports root, do not forget to set the PIN to access su.

Thank you, I was looking on how to root this tab, and stump method worked great on mine, fffiou
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.
Is there a guide or How-to for rooting the G7 river, with or WITHOUT) twrp? As twtp seems to be the issue with Android 10 and no twrp 'fix' or version to fix has been released tho it's said to be in the works for a year now...I'm tired of waiting.
Is there ANYONE that'll post up an unofficial How to root the G7 river with Magisk, WITHOUT twrp? There are plenty of BU options one I'm up n running. i.e. Titanium and others.
Any guide, how-to or a link to one would be awesome but it must be for the plain G7 (River). I'd certainly be wilingl to donate towards people's time spent. A Magisk root without twrp is just fine
Been trying to get a magisk root on this phone for over a year now thanx to this dynamic backup crap making everything a pain in the @$$. This is my last plea, next stop is LOS while I save up for a Pixel 4a.
Thanks for your time.
You can install magisk manager app and create a modified boot.img with magisk on it.
What you do is extract original boot.img from stock rom zip file, put it on your phone, mod it using magisk manager and flash the modded img after. Obivously you'll need the bootloader to be unlocked for this.

I've got that much figured out...
Turns out that the guide I linked to in my last post is legit, heh, the author is on xda too.
