How to root my Oukitel K10 ? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I search the recovery.img of Oukitel K10.
I have make OEM Unlock, and I can get fastboot.
I have find many fake websites to hot to do this, but realy don't trust (last time I have brick my K10000 Pro).
The better way is now to "fastboot boot test.img" and see if my phone boot before flash anything.
But I dont find a recvery.img who boot my phone
I have the "fake" ROM (I search inside, and it's seem match as mine)
The other problem is SP flash tools don't want to get me my NVRAM ...
Anyone have root is K10 ? (I have a brick until my device is not root, I don't use it in stock ROM !)

---

So I finaly test the "normal" way, whit the SP Flash tool method, and it's works.
I don't know why, when I fastboot the image, the phone won't boot, but whith flashtools, it's works.
I have now My Oukitel K10 rooted, and cleaned

---

So, what did you use to root it?

---

Yea can u tell us how you did it atep by step. My flashlight its not working andi cant hear a thing on Bluetooth... Need to root this.. or someone else knows how to fix it?

---

I actually found a step-by-step guide here:
https://www.getdroidtips.com/twrp-recovery-oukitel-k10/
But, i got stuck at downloading the image over my phone,.... i never get green light after flashing....
The phone functions normal, after... because nothing flashed i guess...
And that guide is incomplete, you need to first disable digitally signed drivers check, otherwise the preloader won't work at all...
Did anyone else try it?
What do you guys get?

Mind to share your knowledge? How you obtain your Oukitel K10 rooted cleaned?

I've got this phone today. Here is my quick root procedure.
1. Prepare a magnifiying glass for reading messages on your phone.
2. Download SuperSU (ZIP) and TWRP for oukitel k10.
This one works for me (OKITEL_K10_V121_20180112).
3. Reboot to bootloader.
VOL-DOWN+POWER
4. Unlock bootloader. It will destroy /data now.
fastboot oem unlock
# VOL-UP confirm
5. Reboot to system, then reboot to bootloader again.
6. Flash recovery
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
7. Reboot to recovery
# Hold VOL-UP
fastboot reboot
8. Format /data again
because no one knows password
9. Install SuoperSU.zip
Advanced - sideload -swipe # <-- on phone
adb sideload SuperSU-v2.82-201705271822.zip # <-- on computer
10. Reboot to system, setup and install SuperSU from market.
Now you should have root.

Hello. Turn off your phone first. Then hold button and turn it on. Be carefull - font is too small in menus.

Can anyone share recovery img file? I cant find anywhere.

Hi, you need Vol-up+Power.
It takes about 11 seconds on my phone.
Choose Fastboot mode with Vol-up and
confirm selection with Vol-down.

Anyone know how install cleaned rom?

I keep getting bootloops as soon as I try to flash Magisk. I have no trouble flashing and starting up TWRP, but after flashing I can´t reboot to system. I also get the warning from my Pc when I connect my phone that it doesn´t recognize it. It reboots fine if I don´t flash anything. Any help? I also tried the steps on page 1 (Bootloader is successfully unlocked).
SuperSu works, but fails Safety Net, that´s why I want Magisk.

Hey there and sorry for the late response. What steps did you do so far? Is your bootloader unlocked already? Or are you at the start and this is your first try? If it is your first try, here is a step by step guide on what to do and what you will need.
What you need:
1. The SP Flash Tool and its drivers. You can find them on the Oukitel website or in the internet. Search for SP Flash Tool and download the latest. For the drivers it´s best to get them from Oukitel. Lower right side of their website and then click Latest software Rom and choose the K10.
2. The adb and fastboot drivers. Search them on the internet.
3. Your Smartphone.
4. A computer and the data cable.
5. The SuperSU 2.82 S3 files from chainfire. Again, search them on the internet.
6. The TWRP Image from this thread.
If you have everything, you do the following:
1. If you have used your phone already, safe everything you want to keep on your computer! You will have to erase your data at least once in the process!
2. Turn your phone on and go to settings.
3. Then tap on About your phone and scroll all the way down to see its build number.
4. Tap on that 7 times in a row to get the message: Congratulations you are now a developer. Go back to the settings to see a new option, the developer options.
5. Go to the developer options and tap on allow oem unlock and also tap on enable debugging options.
6. Leave the settings and connect your phone to your computer. Push the SuperSU file to your sd card (Magisk unfortunately does not seem to work and results in a bootloop at least for me).
7. On your computer, go to the folder where you saved the adb.exe and fastboot.exe. Hold shift and open a power shell or command window in there (don´t actually know the steps for a Mac or Linux computer, sry).
8. Now type adb devices and confirm the access on your phone. If your phone doesn´t show up or there is no confirmation message on your phone, type adb kill-server and then adb devices.
9. Once your phone is confirmed, you type adb reboot-bootloader.
10. Now type fastboot oem unlock and press the volume up button on your phone to confirm the bootloader unlock.
11. Your phone will now erase your data (internal storage only, your sd card will not be touched, but may need to be set up and formatted again if it was used to extend the internal storage).
12. On your computer, type fastboot reboot and set up your phone again (just the basics, because you will have to erase it again). Don´t forget to turn on the debugging mode again.
13. Open up the SP Flash Tool on your computer and choose the scatter file from the twrp image (custom recovery). Only recovery should be ticked. Hit the download all button, connect your phone to computer and turn off the phone. Now wait till there is a green hook on your computer. This means, the download has been successfull.
14. Get to recovery mode on your phone by holding the volume up and power button at the same time and choose the first option, then hit the volume down button to enter recovery mode.
15. From here, go to the settings in the upper right corner and choose your language (ignore the message of the password and hit back).
16. Now go to Wipe and format your data.
17. Hit the restart button and press Recovery. Allow it to modify the system and pull the slider.
18. Now go to Install, choose your sd card and press SuperSU. Let it run through the process. Then restart and press system. First time the boot may take a while, so be patient.
19. Set up the phone and enjoy your root.

Magisk 17.1
Magisk 17.1 install AS IS, no warranty, no testing (yet).
!!! You can lose your data or brick your phone !!!
0. Don't try default install or upgrade via MagiskManager - you'll get bootloop.
1. You can try this boot-magisk.img (AIK repacked with force encryption and dm-verity enabled).
It works for me, but I did factory reset before trying.
- boot.img comes from OUKITEL_K10_V12_20180112.rar (I'm not sure about file's source)
fastboot flash boot boot-magisk.img
2. If your phone freeze on Oukitel logo, don't touch it. Wait.
If you stop phone here, you'll lose your data.
There is no way back - it starts data encryption.
3. If it fails, try flashing stock boot back and factory reset your phone.
fastboot flash boot boot.img

---

That modified boot.img did the trick. What did you modify to make it work?
The forced encryption, however, is annoying. Is there a possibility to undo that?
