Root is now available for our lovely 6P!
Flash TWRP from here
Flash the boot image from here (angler-mdb08k-boot.zip)
Flash the latest SuperSU beta from here
then you'll be good to go!
Does it require a custom kernel? I couldn't find mention of it in the link. Also, what the heck is a "boot image?" I know bootloader, recovery, and kernel. Do we now have another thing to consider?
Cool... Can any1 confirm though that rooting wont effect fingerprint sensor working..... I don't really care for Android pay

The boot image is the kernel, it's the one in the zip mentioned at the link.

Can you confirm or deny that rooting breaks Android Pay? I've seen nothing but rumors from people

I'm in the UK so don't have access to Android Pay I'm afraid.
Is there already a way to unroot? Also I hope we don't lose any data while rooting and then unrooting.
This will be my first Nexus.

If you just reflash the stock system image that would erase any trace of root. You wouldn't lose any data. You'll only be able to flash the root zip/kernel if you've already unlocked your bootloader. If you've not done that you'll have to do it first and the process of unlocking will wipe the device.

Um? Don't think we're quite there yet?

Quote from Chainfire.
Acquiring root without modifying the boot images is still under investigation. Please note that the current method will not be officially supported. Future roots may require a clean system: we are at a very early stage of root for 6.0, methods used are subject to change.

I'd download the factory image and update to the latest build. you can edit the "flash-all.bat" so that it doesn't wipe your phone. Change the command
"fastboot -w update" to
"fastboot update"
to preserve your data.
I have re-opened this thread, because the linked thread isn't the same - this isn't a duplicate.
"4. How To Root Your Stock Rom
This section will be revisited when more information is available."
This thread presents something new.

You may want to modify OP to mention Flashing Modified Boot Image before flashing TWRP may be a good idea.

Just boot loops for me , even with Chainfire's boot.img. Is it necessary to do the steps one right after another?
Neat! Glad it is all happening quickly. I think I want to keep encryption, so I will probably wait to root and install TWRP until wiping data to remove encryption is no longer necessary.
Can someone please confirm if the damn fingerprint sensor still works after rooting?

It should be the same routine for the OPX as all of those devices then.
Just to be sure, you're doing it this way (step 5)?
Make sure that your bootloader is unlocked first, or it won't flash (step 2).
Also, make sure that when you use the command "fastboot flash recovery xxx.img" that "xxx.img" is identical to the name of the img file you have placed in your sdk tools folder.

Should be...key word. Guys I've tried it over and over again. All different ways to boot recovery after...different places downloading the file...different way installing (fastboot and flashify).
Only weird thing is that "fastboot oem device-info"
Says tampered is false
Unlocked is true
Does just unlocking bootloader usually trip the tampered flag?
So you're sure that you've enabled OEM unlocking in the developer options??

yes of course...Ive been through the process with the op2.
all drivers installed correctly, got rsa key, unlocked bootloader...one thing is that the confirmation bootloader unlocking screen was in chinese, but I chose the top option to confirm.
Same Issue
I'm having the exact same problem and would love to know a fix as well. My device is also unlocked by the tamper flag was not set off. I'm having the same problem of not being able to load TWRP onto the phone as well.
im guessing maybe because there isnt an official twrp for this phone.
There is only a custom and I know the internals are the same, but I think there are some kind of differences from phone to phone from region to region.

Hello,
I believe there is an official twrp. I did a search and found that you were already involved in that thread by @CafeKampuchia using the TWRP (onyx version) by @h2064
That was the initial recovery I had before I flash to the f2fs version by @eng.stk.

I have no idea if it is unlocked... like I said I didn't use a computer.
It looks like Asus has provided us with the unlock tool for the Zenfone 3 Deluxe. Hopefully someone can make a guide to help users unlock their bootloader. Does anyone think this has a chance of working on the special edition version?
https://www.asus.com/Phone/ZenFone-3-Deluxe-ZS550KL/HelpDesk_Download/
I'm not sure of that would be the same for this....
https://www.asus.com/Phone/ZenFone-3-Deluxe-ZS570KL/HelpDesk_Download/
EDIT: Yeah i was correct this is only 5.5 for now, just have to wait a bit for 5.7 once they do so. until then if we have any testers for 5.5 they should start it now and get this phone hype up, if it works.
As I've been saying... as soon as they get off their behinds and release a bootloader unlock, I'll buy. Looking at you 256gb special edition! Common Asus!

Best way to do so, is word of mouth and contact there support. Then it will go from there.
We have the deluxe bootloader non special edition unlock tool out in the public for about a month and nobody who posts in XDA has said much about it yet. My fear is interest in this phone isn't so high so we'll never get a guide or solution to unlock the bootloader for the deluxe or special edition.
Has anyone with the deluxe tried using the unlock tool?

yes I flashed it via recovery mode, I haven't attempted the adb loader.
after further inspection to the zip file, DO NOT FLASH IT VIA RECOVERY. install it via the apk within the zip file. this unlocks the bootloader. as of now my zs550kl boot loader is unlocked and i will proceed with trying to get it rooted.

Alright that is very good news, keep us posted, sadly can't do much here for the 5.7 until then. As well post some screenshots as well.
I am a bit of a noob to the root scene. Last device I rooted was a galaxySII. I now have a zs550kl as I am trying to make my way back into the cutting-edge arena. I would like to see a root for this as my career has an imei lock on the data signal and I would like to spoof this with the imei of the varied bought device.
hello man! I am looking all over the web trying to find the bootloader unlock tool you mentioned that works for the 5.7 inch, would you drop a link or post a comment on where to find it? thank you for considering!

afaik, they're all rootable except the verizon variant...
hotspot...? if you mean, using your data network as a wifi hotspot - unless there's some kind of issue hosting a wifi network while rooted, this device does let you host.

If you buy the phone directly from Motorola/Lenovo, you can put a Verison SIM in and then you can also unlock the bootloader. Takes longer but if you really want to unlock it, this would be the only way I know.

Sorry guys, I'm thinking about buying this phone with a carrier, so I will have 30 months of warranty covering everything. If I unlock the bootloader and flash the recovery I will lose it. Does anyone know how to find the factory image or backup the stock system (recovery and everything) to restore it to stock in case of problems? Thanks in advance
I have the XT1710-10 Dual SIM variant of the Moto Z2 Play, what should i do to succesfully root the phone. Can somebody guide me in detail ?
and i am not clear about this 32 bit and 64 bit twrp

Which way? What error?... You must go to Motorola's unlock bootloader page (@pizza_pablo kindly shared the link for you already) and >precisely< follow instructions. You can also search for "unlock bootloader Motorola" here or in YouTube. There's aplenty of video tutorials, plus every single Moto device since Moto G requires the very same procedure, so you can follow any. Good luck and don't cry; you'll notice that unlocking is the easiest part.
One more thing: I strongly suggest you to research as much as you can about the subject >first< (it clearly looks like the first time for you) especially on Moto Z2 Play rooting and very especially on Oreo rooting. There's a bit of confusion there.

I doubt it'll work, but I figured I'd ask: Has anyone tried this on the American model? (BND-L24) - I'm gonna test shortly, so I'll be able to confirm whether or not it works. If it does work, I doubt the bands will work properly, if at all, but I'll give it a shot.
