Root is working for XA and Ultra, all firmwares. Just need to unlock the bootloader before. Read carefully the guide (read comments if needed) and choose "rootpack" for single sim. Don't worry about firmware version.

Will this even work on kernel version : 3.18.22+ ??

No problem reported on last firmwares with 3.18.22 kernel. I will update kernel only if needed or justified

Thanks rrvuhpg, but I'm having a total disaster rooting this phone, it says in service menu bootloader unlocked : yes but in flash tool it says it can't be unlocked. Banging my head against a brick wall and I have spent hours trying to root, any tips ?

It can't be unlocked probably because it is unlocked . You will have same error if you try "oem unlock" command in fastboot, with the reason at the end (not necessary).
Just continue to follow the root guide carefully.

Thank you rrvuhpg for your patience regarding rooting of my phone, Im learning more about terminal commands etc, and believe it or not have just rooted my Sony SWR50 so Im used to the fast boot commands now. Ill keep trying. :good:

Thanks rrvuhpg I have successfully rooted Xperia XA F3111, after first go, thank you very much, merci.

I'm not sure what guide you're following but it's incorrect, you don't need anything that's build-specific to unlock the bootloader. Uninstall anything that you found via that guide from your PC and follow my guide here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/general/guides-how-to-guides-beginners-t3206928
I found the intro from highonandriod from maxlee . i read your info and i think it should be okay
Heinsberg ,
Im abit condused about something ...do i need to install boot image for MHC19I ..not stated under the guide you mention...without it will cause bootlop? I saw on xda tv on the video ..

No, that video is outdated now, just follow the instructions in my guide and you'll be fine.

[Q] Root without unlocking Bootloader

Hello Guys,
has anybody rooted the Xperia X Compact without unlocking the Bootloader?
I had the Xperia Z3 Compact before and there were very good Guides to have root with a locked Bootloader.
So has anybody tested a Way to use root with a locked BL?
Or is someone working on that Thing? (Best if it works for Android 7 Nougat)
The Sony Firmware Version 34.2.A.0.292 or 34.2.A.0.266.
Thanks,

If it would be possible, you would have it published already here. I don't even thing anybody is working on that. Unless someone finds a way to hack bootloader itself or dm-verity. If this essential thing is not done on Nexus with much bigger development base, it has no sense trying that on Sony.
Xperia X family has technically different firmware. The Z3 family did not use dm-verity and remains the last phone from Sony, that could have rooted system on locked bootloader.

Atm theres no way to root nokia hmd devices safely
You have to wait until Hmd opens it up

Exactly, it is hard to root it, almost there is noway to root it
Otherwise the Kernel should published from the HMD to working on the System resources !
i dont understand ..
some people say that its possible ( with a different TA model )
i am a little bit scared to use a procedure for a different TA model.
i do not want to brick my TA-1033
Can one of you PLEASE tell me how the did it or make a simple (noop) how-to to do it ???
many thanks

i will wait until HMD opens up the bootloader(s)
if you want to give it a try
https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...de-how-to-flash-custom-recovery-root-t3702354
but keep in mind :
10. After your phone rooted, you can reboot your phone. DO NOT INSTALL ANY OTA UPDATES OR YOUR PHONE WILL GET STUCK AT STOCK RECOVERY (However I've never tested Magisk on Nokia 6), but I’ll recommend you to disable automatic update in settings.
so .. i will wait for it
Do you think it will ever happen ? (The fact that HMD opens up the bootloader)

For this part, I don't really care, updates aren't really interesting anyways. Even Oreo is no worthing it versus a root device.
Last update provided an update to Android 8 Oreo. Is it worthy to update ?

[Nokia 6 TA-1021, Android 9] Is this phone rootable?

Hi. I wanted to get root in my ohone, but any tutorial I followed is useful. I can't use SuperSu and TWRP methods because I can't unlock the bootloader and the app Nokia gives in the official page for unlocking is completely useless. Better not even talking about the one click root apps because I am not even going to pretend they exist.
So I don't know what to do. Some people says this model is completely impossible to root, while others recommend I use Magisk (I don't know how) or specific commands in the Minimal ADB blackboard, do I don't know what I should really do.
So if there exist a way I can root this model of phone which again is Nokia 6 TA-1021 with Android 9, I would like to know the options and how to execute them. Thanks!!

Since pie update, twrp is not booting in some devices of nokia 6 (TA-1021)
and if u want to root your phone
It's must to unlock your device bootloader first .
After that you can flash twrp and magisk ..
But keep in mind ..
Magisk 17.1 is working on Android pie or else canary build( i haven't tested it yet)
And if you want to unlock bootloader of your phone then u have to buy unlock key .
Or else you can try the procedure as mentioned before by @Calyxhikari.
Follow that procedures carefully.. hope it will work for u

Thanks for the reply.
Yes I concluded the issue is being unabled to unlock the bootloader but I am a bit lost.
How to do it? And also, you menctioned I have to buy a key... There is absolutely no other way of doing it? Am I forced to spend more money or there exist a free way?
I never had to unlock it before and I don't know the process.

It's not expensive , you can buy it from techmesto.com
Or contact to calyxhikari i bought it in just 250rs (INR) And believe that was very simple process to unlock bootloader some commands are necessary to unlock it and that's the only way to unlock it . Once you buy it, then you can lock and unlock it anytime .

Emui 9.1 root?

Hello boys and girls,
I was wondering if someone already has a method to root a VKY-L09 (P10 Plus) emui 9.1.
Regards
Root is cancer
I need a way to root the device too.
The model is VKY-L09 and I have updated to Android 9, EMUI 9.1.0, Build 9.1.0.252(C02E8R1P9).
Thanks a lot for any help.
Hi,
Was your device bootloader unlocked with TWRP before your updated the device to Android 9?
As you are aware the bootloader unlock is now not available from Huawei in order to root the device.
Number of sites promise to root the device and most if not all are fraud.

wich I used to update manually and to 9.0. But nothing to 9.1 yet. Also can't find any roots for 9.1 :/

Correct me if I am wrong.
Is your device bootloader unlocked, TWRP and rooted on Android Build 9.0 (Pie).
At this moment I suggest you remain on Build 9.0.x.x and not bother updating to Build 9.1.x.x.
Unless you have some urgent need to update to Build 9.1. ?
And if you update to Build 9.1 - in any event wait for months as custon developers have given up on Huawei devices due to their inability to unlock the Bootloader.
I have not the BL unlocked. Can I go back with downgrade and unlock it?
Let me know. Thank you.
