- A lot of people have been asking me to create a video on how to root their specific device of choice. Whilst there isn't one universal method that works for all phones, there is kind of a common method. This video walks you through that exact process!

Hey Sam do you have an email? I've rooted a lot of phones but this Samsung Galaxy sm-j337p. I need to root without unlocking bootloader. I know its possible but I'm not exactly sure which one or way is the guarantee. I cant back up what all I need either is why theres an issue and all this stuff I need for my divorce as well as stuff that I need to recover with root by Tuesday. Let me know mate thanks.
@@joshhall7702 Hi Josh, sadly I don't know the process for that device. Sorry I can't help!
Can i delete the magisk app after rooting my phone ?
Hey sam, I was wondering if you could help me root a samsung galaxy s7
Man look, i did everything until i got to CMD FASTBOOT my device wont obey any command and when I try to use hard reset it simply says, NO COMMAND PLEASE HELP!!!!!
I like how he's honest and put "Almost" instead of "all" like these other vids on how to root your phone
Because Huawei P30 pro is not a le to unlock. Just confirmed by e-mail from Huawei themself today.

shame none of them can explain it properly or simply or clearly.
I bought an Android phone for rooting, then discovered my phone can't be rooted. Thanks, Knox
Mine oppo a83 can't even open boot loader
you know you can delete Knox software right?
@@jemuelsamuel4020 how?
@@botmusics4875 idk i did it before on s6 it is easy
@@jemuelsamuel4020 That's so misleading. S8 onwards have E-fuses in the main board that blow permanently on flashing custom software. This is anything not signed by Samsung, ie superuser, custom rom, etc.
This fuse is checked by Knox and as such becomes completely disabled if the fuse is tripped. This is on stock software. Even if it's there, it won't work. If you flash custom rom etc the software will be gone entirely. Knox is a combination of hardware security, low level software and some user apps all tied together.
I was just thinking of rooting my phone yesterday and then this popped up today. I guess youtube understood me and told sam about it 😂😂

subbed bc of this
The video I was waiting for since last week. Thanks Sam, I think I love you.
Hey Sam, first and foremost thanks for video as it's so awesome to finally be able to listen to an another Australian explain these topics. I wanted to ask if you could do a video covering how to install a GSI on a device as I have had trouble finding one that explains what to do clear enough.
Finally I found a actual informative video, it's hard to find people with videos like this
Thank you for the non-bs video. You should make a vid about the dangers of rooting. There is a lot of “how to root” spam on the yt and it’s pretty obvious after reading comments a lot of people don’t understand the potential dangers of blindly following root instructions.
An extra (probably unnecessary but still worth doing) tip, if you're going to flash your phone or work with ADB, I suggest using an extra cable that's only meant for flashing that way it's always ready to go and reliable. I found that I rarely have success with even having my phone show up in ADB if I use a cable that I also use to charge with. Nothing technical about it, just the fact that the more a cable is worn, the less reliable it will be for data transfer.
I know I'm late but this is a really good point. I had some difficulties interfacing with my Nexus 7 because all of my micro USB cables were so worn out. By contrast, it was extremely easy on my Poco X3 Pro because I had a barely used cable lying around that was perfect for the job.
Proud to have you as a countryman - thats the only synopsis anyone requires to root a phone. What a great Aussie.
Figured it out after some trial and error. Still the most helpful video on this subject. Liked and subbed.
Damn, I just spent a few days trying to root my phone last week and I should've just waited for you to upload lol
You got it rooted?
Hmm 🤔 did you root or not? I'm in the process... I think it takes long time but got all summer

bro are you able to flash magisk mudule and after flash does rom works fine or stuck on bootloader
@@beastab I'm on latest OOS, with latest magisk installed. And twrp. No bootloops.
i also used all letees twrp magisk and oos 10.3.5 on 1+6
and facing same problem again after flash magisk i download magisk mudele like screen cam' s module i open my magisk app and try to flash that module it says reboot device and after tahat i stuck on bootloader
@@beastab some magisk modules cause bootloops
that's an honest navigation.. I'm impressed... keep it up🤘
Bro these camera settings are beautiful!
If you're on windows you can also type "cmd" into the address bar and it will bring up the command prompt for that folder.
I remember when I got my Galaxy S2 the day I got it, I had rooted it and Rom'd it about 10 times.
@Lei Feng Because a new phone he had that day would have data to back up? Rooting isn't dangerous so long as you're not stupid
I remember those days fondly. It was almost like an obsession lol
@Lei Feng he rooted the day he bough the phone, how it the phone supposed to have data to even back the data up? bruh
Thanks Sam, this tutorial help me a lot on rooting my pixel 3xl
One of the underrated CZcamsrs out there
i cant find a download for my alcatel 1X factory images, does this mean i cant root my phone?
Most android users have Microsoft not Apple computers
despite this, they are the same
That's actually very simple!!? Thank you for the tutorial!! Also once you have the patched img file you can flash it from the phone itself using custom recovery like TWRP
there you get option to flash image then select boot
Thanks mate!!! Very helpful video
...also ensure you have a proper data cable and not just a (cheaper) charging-only cable 👍
All my phones are already rooted, but I'm still gonna watch.
I don't have a computer can I root my phone along with Saving the data?

I'd just like to add that if you have a Chromebook with developer mode enabled, platform tools are built right in to the Chrome OS shell. You can access it by pressing CTRL+ALT+T then typing "shell" into the terminal. From here, you can use ADB and Fastboot commands to interface with your Android device. You might have to give it SuperUser permissions or add "sudo" at the beginning of some commands, but it's otherwise flawless. I use a Google Pixelbook as my main computer, so this makes tinkering with my Android devices ridiculously easy. No need to download anything in order to make it work.
Hey sam, I'm just ready to root my phone,thank you!
after root what you want to do on your phone?
@@GLORIBLESS The phone becomes utterly free from its developers.
It allows you to wholly change your phone's aesthetic (bootloader animation, accent color, font, etc), it is feasible to be fully anonymous while browsing or casually using your phone, root access also permits you to block EVERY advertisement (literally),
You might even download several outcasted apps.
Summarizing: your phone will truly be yours, everything under your absolute domine and control.
However, with such power, a few new responsibilities arises...
@@ALJorgeHenrique bro will rooting my phone delete all my files?
at 4:20 says I need to type in a certain command. How do I find that command? I am using a cheap ONN walmart tablet. Thanks
you need your brand/manufacturer serial number just search up like if your using samsung tablet galaxy ro something then search it up or just copy your serial number that when you put on command prompt adb devices sadly for me it rooting my phone dosent work cuz mah phone is huawei

Good and simple way is also flashing things like Magisk using custom recovery like TWRP
Rather than flashing the boot.img file, I prefer flashing Magisk.zip using a custom recovery.
could you pls tell me how to do that??
i have twrp , custom rom.
TWRP is not available on phones that shipped with Android 10, so this is the only option
@@theajayyy well there are pretty much other custom recoveries as well like orange fox, sharp recovery that could be used instead of twrp in android 10 given that they are available for your phone.
Then you have to flash a custom recovery over that partition and it's more room for error that's not worth it if all you want is Magisk.
@@theajayyy Yes. It is. I have used TWRP myself on Android Q. Lineage Recovery is better though.
What is rooting?
OTA updates are released in waves... Sometimes it may happen that on manufacturer site there is newer firmware version then that one actually installed... So flashing patched boot.img from newer version to phone may end up with bootloop.. So always check if your phone running the latest version (if you download the latest version). Sometimes you may even get OTA update that is not present on manufacturers website yet so pay attention to that.
Man rooting your phone back in the day was super easy
Lol I just spent like hours trying to find a way to work this but I honestly can't
I followed every step
I researched
Got the right information
But still no dice
Idk maybe the phone I want to root just can't and I just wasted my time
But I really didn't know what I was doing
I just followed steps and I managed to unlock the bootloader but idk how to root it ( or is it already rooted? )
Doesn't seem to work through the computer I was using and phone methods just didn't work.
So I think I'm gonna quit for now
Maybe I'll get someone to teach me more about, unlocking,code cracking, and successful rebooting and rooting later
But I'm just done now
My brain hurts
I've been reading, copying, and watching videos of this material all day and I'm really tired xD
I just wanted to get some cheats for a videogame and then I got sent into this wild goose chase about roots... Which wasn't bad it was interesting but I think I just overworked myself to the point I no longer want to know about any of this for the rest of the day lol.
Anyway this vid actually helped me a lot
It got me pretty far, the rest was just gibberish to me and I couldn't go further cuz my brain got really tired, made it harder to think anything.
Anyway if someone can simplify the process a little bit about what I can do now that the bootloader is unlocked
I will happily read and give your suggestions a try... If it's within my reach I mean.
Hard bricked my phone mate, now need to send it to service
lmao nerd
On you
The middle part of the bootloader you had me fucced up
it is Great lesson ! many thanks !
Hey dude, thanks for the tutorial! I'm stuck in the command prompt on 'waiting for any device'. Any advice on how to get further?
check that your phone is allowing the computer to control the phone
it should be in "connected devices" option in settings
Okay just trying to be a lil helpful since I ran into this problem. If you try and type the file "cd platform tools" and get and an error saying s "the system cannot find the path specific". Put the WHOLE name in you can usually drag the file into the command prompt and it gives it to you. It should say CD C:\user\your name on computer \desktop\platform-tools_r30.0.5-your computer.
Hope this was helpful!!!!
Got a load of spare old smartphones that still work. Hoping to practice on them out of curiosity.
oh I'm sorry to interrupt I really like your setup and stuff but you're really incorrect about one thing you can root your phone without a computer all you do is download the original file the original firmware for whatever device and carrier that you have or unlocks is a backup as well as you download the rooted firmware and then you simply install the rooted firmware from your SD card using the one-click route method I've done it several times without a computer on all the Galaxy notes in the past one two and three I've done it Etc and that your phone if you do mess it up there's a difference nine times out of 10 if you've rude or flashed the wrong ROM it'll just be soft brick meaning when you plug it in the light still comes on as long as you do that you can simply upload the original firmware to from a computer you would have to do that or you can use external drive
How to retrieve Samsung notes without cloud
I have galaxy m31
well uh he said something similar... but it is better to do it with a computer because it is more easy to restore your phone if you screw up.
Thank you, works great with Pixel 5
It does work. There is a way to route phones without a PC. It has to be an older android and you have to use king root
@z I'd say look for an Android manufactured in like 2017 or earlier
holyshit this took a while but worth it
Omg thank you, i could finally manage to root my phone!
Could you make a video how to root samsung device please?
Your videos is so clear to understand
😊
I find it interesting that you always like to use Magisk to patch the stock boot image instead of flashing a new recovery like TWRP to flash the entire Magisk ZIP itself
By using MAGISK ONLY method, it will save you a lot of times when you need to re-root again the same device. Situation like you receive a system update and installed the update. Root is gone. All you need to do is download the ROM you just updated and patch the boot.img file to root the device again. TWRP is also good in terms of you are interested in trying different kinds of ROM which I'm not a big fan. I just need my device root and able to use TASKER.
Many thanks!
Your beard is so glorious I can't take my eye off it
Hi, I want to render 1080p video as 1440p at 2.35 1 aspect ratio (premiere pro), did you know the right resolution to make the 1440p appear on youtube because I want to get VP09 Codecs on youtube.
Thank you. I had to surf through alot of bullshit videos just to find the right one
Man this guy is so under rated,, great work
If some one have the problem of bootloop can solve using the command "fastboot flash boot boot.img" where boot.img is the original firmware of your phone. You can find the original firmware on the official site of your phone.
Guys, this is just for those who don't have a PC. You CAN ROOT YOUR PHONE. All you need is another Android phone. Go to the Play Store and download an app called Bugjaegr. It allows you to run ADB Commands with another phone through an OTG cable. Just enter the commands as normal then! Ciao!
thnks for the great tutor im stuck n the Magisk but i will learn again i just dont understand
Thanks Man APpriciate It
One wonders of rooting is still needed lately
Hi, I really like this kind of videos, good work! It's a long time ago I rooted my devices.
Are there any downsides now? Eg. does Google Pay, banking App, etc work with root enabled?
I currently have a Pixel 4 XL and Google Pay is a must have.
I use custom rom with root, Gpay works fine..
Nope.
I think i love you , damn it worked so fine
His stache has its own personality. Chad vibes
Thanks so much! It's pretty a clear guild, at least for me. Question is why would brand name such as OPPO & VIVO are seems unwelcome unlock bootloader? I never can seek any of those brand a method against bootloader unlocking so that stopping me to buy these phone models. Do you have experience about it? Thanks edmond
Guys if you re in Windows in the PLatform winrar thing you just click shift+right mouse and u click on the open Windows Commnd Processor something like that
I love your videos very much! I want to root my phone too but sadly I don't have a PC:
Be careful everyone please know that safetynet cannot be spoofed anymore on most devices(soon to be all devices) because it is now hardware based so if you don't pass safetynet there is most likely no way of passing now and you will have to remove root and re lock the bootloader if you need to pass for banking
just a question what file do you mean that has the img file
This is a great content for the people who have this method probably works, but the otherside of it still some people like my case couldn't succeed to unlock for instance Huawei mate 10 pro bootloader, I have really suffered thru this day and nothing works!!!
I loved the video and am excited about rooting my phone. I really want to install Magisk. However, I can't find anything about rooting a OnePlus Nord N10 5G (from Sprint/T-mobile). Do you have a video specific to this or one that shows how to install Magisk on this phone? Thanks...
I had to replay this video multiple times just to be safe.
I'm confused af..... I'll need to rewatch this video a few times. My boot loader is already unlocked.
Believe it or not, there is an app I used on my RCA tablet called kingroot (and also one called kingoroot) which "rooted" it without a PC. I say it in quotes because root checkers and apps that only worked with rooted phones really thought I was rooted, so I am guessing this app somehow tricked my tablet or the apps into thinking I was rooted. All you do in kingroot is click on some buttons and you are "rooted." However, it is VERY ad friendly and was very sketchy. Like for example, it put its own lockscreen on my tablet (which still worked) but I never thought much of it because I didn't care about my old tablet but it really didn't do anything to my tablet. No virus or anything. I haven't used the app since then so I don't know how it behaves now. I think it only works with old phones so if you have an old phone lying around and willing to risk it I recommend you install kingroot (or kingoroot) and use it. It might still work.
TL:DR There is an app called kingroot and another called kingoroot which I used on an old RCA tablet of mine and they both somehow "rooted" the tablet and it let me use apps and do things that you could only do when rooted. Root checkers also confirmed that I was rooted after the use of the apps. I think they only work for old phones though.
Finnaly a person that is honest he is finally saying how to root with pc yay and I knew its almost impossible to root without pc I know even if I have never tried the pc methods but it's obvious that it does not work so don't fall for fake videos our there
Thank you for the upload, I got close to the end but I don't have a boot image file and I can't find one for my Alcatel V1 5007u, do you know where I can find one?
I would suggest "all in one tool". Just Google "all in one tool android" and open first link with XDA forum.
Not for all androids. But does good job with most popular phones.
Considering doing this to my new Pixel 6 so I can install my LG keyboard apk... hopefully I don't screw it up! Thanks!
Do you know if this’ll work on Gpad 5? I can’t find anybody rooting it
hey, after i rebooted my bootloader my PC could no longer detect my phone, any ideas on how to fix this?
4:32 I appreciate that you are not giving an extensive list of possible commands, but neither of those commands worked in my case. I'm trying to root my Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ but I can't find anywhere on the internet with information about what command to type here. The command line just says "" and does not allow me to continue typing commands.
Does anyone know what command I should be using for a Samsung phone?
I am having the same problem with my Note9. Did you ever figure out what to do?
Thanks for the video, I am trying to root and xgody-mate-10, but cant find it's boot.img anywhere, what do you suggest?
Are there some phone for which rooting is easier or that you know for sure it will work?
Hey Sam, Can you please make a video on how to uninstall pre-installed or system apps on android without PC
Xperia (Nowadays), Huawei (Honor also), BBK Group (except OnePlus) is very hard smartphone to have root access.
Because when user try to FORCE unlock bootloader, the device will hardbrick.
Thanks for Samsung with Exynos, it's still easy for root.

Hi Sam. I have one "simple" question: what would be the "image files" I should look for, for a Sony Xperia Z2 ? The "simple google search" doesn't give me anything... (I'm trying to root and find a stable ROM for 3-4 months, now, I came back to stock ROM (Marshmallow), but I can't root it, now...). Thank you!
do it via twrp
