Pretty much the only option for rooting is magisk.
You need to unlock the bootloader, install the magisk app, download the firmware for your device, patch the boot.img, and flash the patched boot.img

XCover Oreo 8.1 ROOT
My XCover 4 updated to Oreo 8.1. I'm so sorry that I didn't stop the upgrades from the stock Nougat ROM.
As far as I read Oreo updated the bootloader to version 2 and it doesn't allow downgrades via Odin back to Nougat. I wanted to flash a Baltic Nougat version of the ROM so that I could run a CF-Auto-Root for the ROM that I found in a tutorial online.
I also tried to get TWRP installed with an xcover4 image from TWRP Builder, but I doubt the bootloader version is the same and my phone doesn't even show up when I run "fastboot devices" when in bootloader mode. It shows up in "adb devices".
My main reason for rooting the phone is so that I can get call recording enabled.
Hello ,
I Root some of my Xiaomi more or less knowing the procedures.
I may purchase REALME 7 Pro & if the very first step unlock bootloader using Indepth test apk., can use on this model ? not necessary a must match version of Indepth text apk ?
also, is Readme OS accept Magisk root by patching the boot.img without using TWRP ?
( similar procedures as ROOTING on Xiaomi devices ...taking out boot.img from formware ....using Magisk to patch image...... flash it back & forth between devices & computer...without using TWRP. )
Thank you very much.

Hey I wouldn't suggest rooting or unlocking bootloader even if it is simple as ABC because this device is going to get updates for sure so it wouldn't be wise yet.

You get the point !!
Unfortunately , I M-U-S-T root this as I'm required to use TASKER heavily due to my work ( and my own interest in tasker )
On Xiaomi devices they are an easy life since I've been following every firmware updates , then I download separately this firmware on my desktop, root this back by MAGISK_PATCH_BOOT.img ( sort of like you know what I mean )
There is no need no hassle to make Xiaomi root again after the firmware updates. Most importantly Xiaomi not require to re-install all apps by using above methods after firmware updates.
I hope this realme 7 pro using the same procedures. ( I just have made the purchase from India to DHL me at USD375.00 )
Thanks!

Realme 7 pro, will get official bootloader unlock tool and official kernel sources available(hopefully) in the coming, so no need to take risk just wait for it, realme is a tech enthusiast brand so I guess they won't disappoint

If you are really impatient you can try to gain temporary root and extract the boot.img using any app or ADB commands even magisk root via ADB is possible afaik I myself am waiting for the kernel and bootloader unlock but I feel this phone was launched in an early state to compete against Xiaomi phones in the same price range. Now unfortunately for us consumers this means till Android 11 update kernel sources might not be public but most probably after that it might be possible and if you use root for YouTube vanced and stuff I think there is a non root method but it's very irritating.

Thank you !!
I use TASKER and you now know which is why I need to damn deeptest.apk
temporary root is somewhat a good idea however is not fit in my case since my realme 7 pro bought over e-bay India so that anything brick I seems have big trouble sending back & forth for repair.
It is still good hints about temporary root as I never heard of ................
Hope I'm not soon to say goodbye & sell it due to long time waiting and without root. ., it happened on me once on the Vivo 19 that I sold it when I confirm it definately not root-friendly.
Thank you very much !!!!

Any update on unlocking bootloader ?
I have already unlocked the bootloader. But we will have to wait till kernel source code is released for custom recovery and rooting.
from what i read all samsung mobiles from the galaxy S6 that use snapdragon processor have the bootloader locked without the possibility to unlock
but from many posts its seems really easy to unlock the samsung A11 SM-A115M
i just need to be sure, because i am about to buy it, but in case i can't unlock it i would buy the a10s instead
thanks!
still need a confirmation
thanks

About buy. I'm not suggest you to get this phon. It's x86, sometimes laggin' can be root with magisk but need to unlock bootloader. (You can do it pretty easy)
On my SM-A115F I'd got a root with magisk but it's not very useless. Because standart way to unlock bootloader just a bull**** and rapid dust in your eyes, you can't flash any custom rom because you not abled to unlock your SECURITY QUALCOM BOOT (QSB) option. So there's no any TWRP support untill someone jailbreak the QSB.
Also /system is RO so no very usefull options to change system files.
If you want A11 then better take A10.
A11 not really worth your money.

this sound reasonable, actually the only thing in favor of the A11 is fast charge, but i can surely live without it
thanks!
I want to follow this guide: https://www.tomsguide.com/us/samsung-galaxy-s6-guide,review-2856-3.html but I am uncertain if this is equivalent to the dengerous one click root applications or it is trustworthy? If it is not trustworthy, how would I root my device? It is running Lineage OS Android 10 and has TWRP installed. S6 Edge.
Thank you.

Are you talking about unlocking the bootloader, or installing root with something like Magisk?
Unlocking the bootloader tends to be manufacturer specific, although I believe LG is one of the OEMs who hasn't made it easy. As for root, if you're able to unlock the bootloader, chances are root can be attained via a Magisk patch.
I did find this thread, which you probably would have too if you had searched before posting (Rule #1), but be aware that this is NOT for beginners or the faint of heart, and carries a high risk of turning your device into a paperweight.
Let's start with the simple things first. Enable Developer Options. Do you see an OEM Unlock toggle, and is it toggle-able?
