You don't need TWRP for rooting. Install MediaTek MT65xx USB VCOM Preloader USB Drivers. Install SP Flash Tool. Find a scatter file for your device. If you can not find it, you can create it. Load the scatter file. Read back boot.img from phone. Install the Magisk Manager app. Patch the boot.img from Magisk. On the Download Tab, flash the patched_boot.img from SP Flash Tool (IMPORTANT: uncheck all checkboxes except BOOT) You are rooted as soon as you boot from this patched_boot.img and can check it from Magisk Manager app

Video Name: How to root Android using Magisk Manager & stock boot.img
Channel : Hovatek
------------------------------------------------------------
REQUIREMENTS :
(0) Unlocked Bootloader
To unlock bootloader in Lava X81 by Fastboot mode use the command
fastboot oem unlock #unlock bootloader via fastboot mode
{{{{{ NOTE: Unlocking bootloader in Lava X81 will erase all the user data. So please take a backup before unlocking bootloader. }}}}}
(1) Stock boot.img for your phone model (its best its for your Build Number / Variant ) . You can extract from the stock rom / firmware of your device (you may check our collection at https://forum.hovatek.com/forum-89.html ) OR backup from your device using a hardware box e.g Miracle Box, CM2, Nck Box Pro etc
(2) Download Latest Magisk Manager {Currently 7.3.0 (220)}
(3) Active internet connection on your Android device
(4) A windows 10 Laptop
---------------------------------------------------------
INSTRUCTIONS :
Step 1: Patching the stock boot.img
1. Install Magisk Manager 7.3.0 (220) APK on your android device.
2. Copy the stock boot.img of Lava X81 to your phone's internal storage or SD card whereever you want (Internal Storege\Dowloads is the better option)
3. Launch Magisk Manager app and check for latest updates. After the updates you will see that Magisk Manager is up to date.
4. Then, Select (Magisk is not installed. Latest 19.3 (19300)) Install > (Install Magisk) Install > Select and Patch a File >
5. Navigate to the location of the stock boot.img you copied earlier on (select Dowloads option or in my case, I used ES File Explorer File Manager), then Select it
6. Magisk Manager should begin downloading the magisk zip file for our arm64-v8a Device platform.
7. Once download is complete, MagiskManager will automatically patch the boot file and store it under
/storage/emulated/0/Download/magisk_patched.img
(Then I renamed it as "patched_boot.img" for our convenience)
Step 2: Flashing the patched boot.img
Among a variety of options to flash, I preferred Fastboot method
(0) Connect your Lava X81 one or two times to the PC (for preinstalling drivers)
(1) Boot your Lava X81 into fastboot mode.
(2) Open platform-tools_r28.0.1-windows.zip file
(3) Simultaneously press Keyboard's Shift key and Right click on the mouse, to open PowerShell window
(4) On the PowerShell use the following codes to flash:
Starting from phone's normal usb debugging mode,
adb devices #Ensures your phone connectivity in ADB (Android Debug Interface) mode via USB Debugging
adb reboot-bootloader #Reboot your phone to Fastboot Mode from ADB
fastboot devices #Ensures your phone connectivity in Fastboot mode
fastboot getvar unlocked #To check whether the bootloader is unlocked or not. It should be unlocked to proceed further
fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img #Flash the Magisk Patched Boot image file in Fastboot Mode
fastboot reboot #Reboot to the system from exiting Fastboot Mode
(5) Congrats and check with a Root checker app for root status. While checking for root status itself pop out for root permission.

"Updating Pixel 6, Pixel 6 Pro, and Pixel 6a devices to Android 13 for the first time
Warning: The Android 13 update for Pixel 6, Pixel 6 Pro, and the Pixel 6a contains a bootloader update that increments the anti-roll back version for the bootloader. This prevents the device from rolling back to previous vulnerable versions of the bootloader. After flashing an Android 13 build on these devices you will not be able to flash and boot older Android 12 builds. For developers who need to develop and test against an Android 12 environment, a special Developer Support Build that contains the bootloader update should be used.
After taking an Android 13 update and successfully booting the device post update, an Android 12 build resides in the inactive slot (seamless updates for more information on slots) of the device. The inactive slot contains an older bootloader whose anti-rollback version has not been incremented. If the active slot is then flashed with a build that fails to boot, the fallback mechanism of seamless updates kicks in and the device tries to boot from the inactive slot. Since the inactive slot contains the older bootloader, the device enters an unbootable state.
To avoid hitting this state, if you are flashing a Pixel 6, Pixel 6a, or Pixel 6 Pro device with an Android 13 build for the first time, please flash the bootloader partition to the inactive slot"...
If you want to update to the Android 13 Factory image without wiping your phone: Do Flash Factory Image Keep Data (below).
Always verify you have the latest working version of SDK Platform-Tools installed on your computer before installing the Factory Image: Pixel 6 - oriole.
If you get an error while flashing, try one of these options:
Change the USB port to a non charging USB port.
Change the USB cord.
Change Computers.
If you phone bootloops
Press the Power button until the phone turns off.
Press the Power and Volume Down to boot the bootloader.
Open a Command Prompt in the SDK-Platform-tools folder or the folder that has adb.exe in it, and type adb wait-for-device shell magisk --remove-modules
then type
fastboot Reboot
Backup your data
Download the latest Factory Image: Pixel 6 - oriole to your Computer.
Go to Part II - INSTRUCTIONS => 4. Extract Files from the FactoryImage/Flash boot.img and extract the flash-all.bat file.

For sure! Depending on your time committments that would be great.
When I go to patch the boot.img I get an error in Magisk
Code:
- Device platform: arm64-v8a
- Installing 92546e8a (23016)
! Process error
! Installation failed
In the logs, I see the following error in the stack trace
Code:
java.io.FileNotFoundException: /storage/emulated/0/boot.img: open failed: EACCES (Permission denied)
It seems like Magisk doesn't have permission to access the boot image?
EDIT:
Nevermind, it was caused by the app I was using to select the file. I used Google's default Files app and that fixed it
As always, great work! Boomarked in case i have a brain fart

I'm assuming you have the latest version of SDK Platform-tools r. 31.0.3 installed on your computer, there are no typing errors on the command fastboot..., USB debugging is enabled, and fastboot.exe is in this folder:

Try opening Command Prompt in this folder:

Howto install TWRP For SM-T225
# Patch Samsung AP Firmware via Magisk v24.0
1. Install Magisk.apk on your device SM-T225 with select no update checking, and transferred AP_xxx.tar.md5 from computer to your tab.
2. Patch Samsung AP Firmware via Magisk Manager.
( Once done, the newly created magisk_patched.tar file will be present under the
Downloads folder on your device.)
3. you may now transfer this patched TAR file to the folder on your PC where other extracted firmware files (AP, BL, CP, CSC, and HOME_CSC) are present.
4. FLASH it with ODin as usual by used magisk_patched.tar file at AP slot .
5. REBOOT SYSTEM Quick SETUP < NO NEED INTERNET>
6. Power Off and press Volum up +Volumn down + USB for boot into Download mode
7. FLASH TWRP.tar from https://github.com/DevZillion/android_device_samsung_gta7lite/releases at "AP slot"
But this time set Odin option NO Auto- REBOOT, yes do it yourself with key press ( power + volumn up). If you can't do this , let it reboot to system and uses cmd " adb reboot recovery".
When access to twrp
Go to Advanced > Terminal and type "multidisabler" (without quotes", then data wipe.
Now reboot into system, after completing first setup of the device reboot into TWRP again to see if you can see the contents of your Internal Storage, you should, if yes you have successfully disabled Samsung encryption of internal storage.
-install TWRP ( not for the first time installation )
From my tutorial: Easy & Quick RESTORE FROM (ANY GSI ) BACK TO (STOCK with TWRP)
!!! Download the actual Firmware A11 with Frija or samfirm or Bifrost, and extract
it and you will get 5 files (AP, BL, CP, CSC and HOME_CSC). All files are in tar format and can be opened by 7-Zip, WinRAR or other archrive software.
1. Flash the FW A11
- BL + AP + CP + CSC ( clean data)
- put (TWRP + vbmeta_disabler)dot tar in USERDATA slot.
and click "Start"
NOTE.
• Default Auto reboot to system.
• Your device will reboot but it will not boot into system as "vbmeta signature" has changed.
2. When Auto Boot into TWRP mode from step 1.
( May be Black screen , try to press power button + Volumn for activated twrp screen.)
In your TWRP Recovery menu.
• Go to Advanced > Terminal, type: multidisabler. Click Enter.
• Go back to Main menu , Wipe > Format Data > type yes.
Option<<<Install the Magisk.apk with TWRP >>>
3. Boot---->System
Done
NOTE: If you wish to install TWRP without rooting, there are numerous pitfalls to consider. For example, a stock device is protected by Android Verified Boot. This is implemented as a vbmeta partition that contains cryptographic digests for verifying the integrity of boot.img, recovery.img and other partitions/images. Flashing TWRP without first flashing a vbmeta image with verity disabled will render your device unable to boot.

》》From your Computer
1. INSTALL "Android Bootloader interface" Driver.
Note: very important bootloader driver for used fastboot of the twrp.
Android Bootloader Interface Drivers are needed for your PC to identify the device connected in Fastboot Mode and hence execute the desired Fastboot Commands.

File on MEGA

2. Copy & paste "Platform tools" to C:/ and copy &paste GSI.img into this folder.
( "vbmeta.img" IF NOT FOUNDED , PLEASE EXTRACTED FROM YOUR AP FILE)

androidsdkmanager.azurewebsites.net
3. Run Cmd or Open from inside folder platform tools ,
Code:
adb reboot fastboot
>>>tab will auto reboot to "TWRP fastoot mode" (ignored black screen)
4.
Code:
fastboot devices
>>>Output screen will show your tab S/n
