Enjoy. Don't forget to thank @beaups too, he discovered the eMMC backdoor and exploited it!
UPDATE: [8/2/16] I have recompiled the binary with some fixes beaups made. These fixes should take care of the "samsung device only" error some are getting on 4.4 roms.
Disclosure: I do not own a Note 3. The exploit happened to be applicable to the Note 3, and we compiled it for your devices rather than not release it at all. This seems like a reasonable and friendly thing to do for the community. I can't help you root or teach you how to use ADB. It's important you have the ability to do these things or research them a bit before blindly using this. I am very familiar with Samsung however, and time permitting, will do my best to help anyone having issues.
You should not run this if you don't understand it.
ROOT REQUIRED, we aren't responsible for anything you do with this.
You NEED a MicroSD, and it WILL be formatted during this process.
YOU MUST DISABLE REACTIVATION LOCK OR YOU WILL HAVE ISSUES!!!!!!!!!
You can download the eMMC brick bug check app on the Play Store to verify your CID starts with 15. If it does, you are good. If not, it will not work.
The code below is NOT a script, you must enter the commands manually.
You must unzip the file first.
Download
Code:
adb push unlock_n3 /data/local/tmp/
adb shell
su
cd /data/local/tmp/
chmod 777 unlock_n3
chown root.root unlock_n3
./unlock_n3
Allow device to reboot. After full reboot, run
Code:
adb shell
su
cd /data/local/tmp/
./unlock_n3
again, power down and pull battery. May need to run it again if it doesn't work after the battery pull.

God you are a life saver, I've been trying to get my uncle hooked up with a phone with a unlocked bootloader for awhile,
now he can use his current phone for it.
Does this work for v4.4.4 and 5.0?
Any idea how long it takes on the first reboot? I assume it formats the SD card and that takes some time and I only have a 64gb card so I'm guessing I'll be looking at the Verizon logo a while.
Do the commands HAVE to be entered via adb? If I downloaded the zip to my phone, could I enter the commands through a terminal editor possibly?

Try removing your SDCARD, boot up, and put it back in before you do it the second time.

You should do it with adb instead of terminal emulator. You could do it with terminal emulator, but I don't recommend it.
I'm confused. It asked me to run the binary again to finish the process, but when i did that, it tried to change the CID again. Am i doing something wrong? The CID has changed to the one it displays on cmd.

Do a battery pull and run the second step again. It will say "backing up loaders" when it is actually done.

Where did you get your TWRP build from?
The Note 3 Verizon hasn't had a unlocked bootloader until now, so I can't imagine there was a TWRP build ready for it.
Was there something close enough to be compatible, like a TWRP build for the developer edition?

Flashify. It didn't look like they had much trouble getting it ported quickly for us. Now to get CM13 going but that'll be a little longer.

I got sick of using dd to reinstall recoveries on my LG V500. There are one or two other apps I've seen that do this but this one always worked for me.

You still can download it manually. Read the notes and it shows the verizon note 3 supported.
Just confirmed good old "dd" method works fine and recovery boots nicely. Make sure you pick the correct version at the twrp website.
Now on to bigger and better things! Will donate!
I tried this, and no change to my CID... It's still starts with 15...... I'm expecting it to start with 11 when it works.... Any ideas? I'm using an 8GB sd card, and the card was erased as expected....
My output was:

(Yes/No)
Y
Type "Yes" or "No"
(Yes/No)
yes
[+] CID at boot time is/was: 15------------------------------
[+] dev CID matching, proceding to unlock
[+] backing up loaders, this will take a few minutes
[+] loaders successfully backed up
[+] success! powering off device, hopefully its not bricked!
<end output>
I obfuscated the actual CID in the above output message. Is there any way to verify that this worked before I flash TWRP and possibly brick my device?
EDIT: Nevermind, I booted into download mode and found out that my device is seen as a "developer device". Anybody flash TWRP and CM13 yet?

Hi
I'm trying to change my boot screen to a loading semi circle. I cannot remove bootanimation.zip from /system/media
when I cd to /sys.media and type "rm bootanimation.zip" it asks me with a ?
If I type Y and press enter it says cannot remove "bootanimation.zip":read only file.
what can I do to get rid of the stock skateboard bootscreen?
PS Before typing in any adb cmd's I am typing "su"
First trying doing:
adb remount
Then try your rm command.If the rm command does not work after that, you could try:
adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip
adb reboot
If neither of those work, push it to /data/local. On KaosFroyo, I use this method.:
adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local/bootanimation.zip
adb reboot

I would just adb push to /data/local. It should read from their first.
adb is just over some peoples heads, flashing a zip is easier.
he got his bootani on his phone using my flashable zip from the red cyanogen, he PM'd me
I love how supplying 1 thing to the community can have different uses, that's cool!
Ya that script is awesome. Though this post is about trying to get rid of the 3 skateboard dudes. Unless I'm mis understanding that boot screen and boot animation are the same thing?

It works beautifully with Eris, provided you follow directions

I'm having a hard time with this. My eris is already rooted, I cannot flash to the splash1 partition, I only just get an "error cannot load <my file name>" in fast boot. I don't see any clear instructions to flash a different fastboot without re- rooting my phone?
*edit* I got it to want to flash accept now it says "FAILED <remote: not allow>"
*edit2* also I cannot get the s-off bootloader the only place it was available now says its not due to inactivity

Ok, now I'm confused. Are you trying to change the boot animation or the boot image? The boot animation is simple to change. Copy new bootanimation.zip to your sd card. Download root explorer, open it and select R/W . Navigate to the sd card and copy the new boot animation. Navigate to system/media and paste. It must be named bootanimation.zip.
If you want to change the boot image (first image you see at boot) that's a completely different process. Go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-654042.html for a how to. I had a little trouble with this at first but got it to work. Scroll down and see my comment for a how to that worked for me.
Good luck!

Yes this is it. But all of the required files are not available for download. From what I gather I have to completely wipe my phone to unlock my HBOOT.
My HBOOT is S=ON I want the S-OFF bootloader but cannot find complete instruction/files to do so.
I'm ready to pull my hair out. I followed those steps for engeneering hboot to the letter... 2wice and it did not work. When pb001 is done flashing it sits at the hboot screen and still reads S-ON and when I try to flash a recovery from there it says "waiting for device" and nothing ever happens because the hboot screen is asking me to flash pb001 even though I already did. Those instructions are spectacularly bad. Does anyone have clearer or better instructions?
All this has done is waste an hr of my time and its making me see red.
Are you using the steps from this post? I was a little challenging at first however I was able to do it (more than once), although I was sad the first time that I had to re-flash the rom I was using and set up the phone all over again.
I no longer have a eris, however I will do what I can to help if you haven't already got it working.

Honestly, I don't know much about that because I rooted with the old method. What method did you use? Perhaps you can unroot and root with the old method (using cmd prompts to push custom recovery).

If you don't already have it, download Titanium from the market. It's a great tool for backing up and restoring your phone.

I rooted with Eris one click. It gives you Amon's ra and I have several custom roms downloaded + I have a couple nadroid backups. I just can't figure out the engineering boot loader.
Flashing PB00 does unroot the phone so I'm not sure where to go from here.

I am assuming you are following the guide here, for me it was confusing at step 5 in the beginning. Did you flash the engtools or push the flash image? Personally I pushed the flash tool.
Step 6 is tricky, you have to be patient as it does take a while and best to do it with plugged in. If I remember right it I did the very last step (flashing recovery.img) before rebooting when it asked me if I wanted to restart.
I lost root after doing it, however 1 click from the market was my friend and savior. I booted into bootloader and verified I had 1.49.2000 s=off, so it was worth it in the end.
At what point is it not working for you?

Yes I am following Jcase's steps. I also flashed the image. When it asks me to reboot the boot loader it reboots to fastboot and does not ask me to install pb00 unless I go to HBOOT. When I flash PB00 in HBOOT it does so ok, but then it check's the sd card and keeps asking me to flash pb00 even though I already did. While in this screen I cannot see the device in adb or fastboot and I cannot flash a recovery to it. So all I can do is yank the Batt and boot to a unrooted 2.1 eris....
Just recently purchased Bungbungame MiSS (Tegra 3, nice screen) etc. Have unlock bootloader, but cannot seem to get root access. su is not in system/bin or system/xbin directories and when I attempt to use su in SSH I get a permission denied. Cannot mount as "read-only file system".
Thanks in advance for any help

[/COLOR]Enter Recovery Menu
Hold down power and volume up at the same time, then as soon as the screen flashes on, let go of the power button and you should see something like this in the left top corner OTA....... start pressing the volume down button and volume up simotanously about 4-5 times then it will enter recovery menu. Next i will try to push the crystal root method through recovery in adb push update to see if that roots.

ok that didnt go well i ended up getting a android with an exclamation mark
but also wanted to note that im on my windows 7 machine and i already had the manufacture drivers installed working in regular adb mode....and when i was in the cmd and my device was in adb sideload mode it wasnt being recognized, so i looked in my device manager and i had a exclamation by my miss device. The tablet usually works perfectly fine when im booted up and in adb cmd no problems with the drivers at all, im able to log cat and read my device HOWEVER when im in adb and my tablet is in recovery adb sideload all of a sudden the drivers werent acting right and i couldnt communicate with adb cmd and my device.......so what i did was googled apx no driver found because the message coming up when the drivers were trying to be detected was just that "apx no driver found" so i have this link here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1998650 and downloaded it and then went to my devices and updated the drivers under the MiSs driver and after installing it made my driver name into google android driver...then i went back to cmd adb and i was able to sideload the update file to my device..... The update zip installation was aborted but at least i know how to sideload in adb now with the correct driver needed. When i rebooted my device into regualr mode and plugged it into my pc my device manager reads miSS still...and when i jump back into sideloading through recovery menu my manager device puts me back under google driver blablablabla so i guess you guys will probably need this driver too if you want to do some work....its made for Universal TEGRA devices.
I also used these commands to sideload and placed the update.zip where i was pointing to the adb.exe heres the link

how did you unlock the bootloaders? Did you do this manually with Linux or did you use a program?
BungBungame Has a safemode
Im not to sure what i can do in safe mode with this True Android 4.1.1 bungbungame device but i managed to get into safemode heres what i did..
1) download this root method (RootDebugfs) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1706588 and select root (your device will reboot, and freeze at bungbungame logo)
2)Hold both volume up and volume down then release volumes and click them simutanasouly now your device is in safe mode.
here is a picture of safe mode..
BungBungame bootloader menu
When i was connected to adb i entered command "adb reboot bootloader" and i got this menu...also instead of power button being the selection button in the menu the select button is volume up and volume down cycles through the selections power button does nothing.

Yea unlocked bootloader thanks again. Have you tried motochopper root method after unlocking bootloader?
im going to try it now, before it wouldn't

2)adb reboot bootloader (Type this in ADB)
3)fastboot oem unlock (Type this in ADB)
4)select unlock it (bootloader unlocked sucessfully)
5)reboot device (all user data gets wiped)
note**i had to boot into recovery mode after unlocking bootloader and wipe data/cache (because it frozed)
Yea unlocked bootloader thanks again. Have you tried motochopper root method after unlocking bootloader?

AWESOME!!! That root method worked for me as well. Thanks for the efforts!!! Now, does anyone think there is there a custom recovery that would work with this?

i think the asus tf201 has the same pit tables so i was going to try and use their recovery from rom manager but im afraid of brick cause its the recovery so instead im going to dump this command in
adb shell....
su......
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0 of=/sdcard/boot.img bs=4096 skip=3968 count=2048
The reason why i say it might work is becuase when my evo shift 4g didnt have a custom recovery the forums said just to use the evo 4g from rom manager. So i did and i was able to flash install and back up successfully. So im tempted to just flash the asus tf201 thing is theres no coming back if the device wont boot recovery like the evo shift 4g had a .exe flash program for recovering to stock in emergencies unlike this bungbung
since my mods and tweaks applied I have amazing performance and battery life I've been using it for about 9hrs straight.I'll post a battery log later.didn't have time for this round which is only the first since the first rooted charge, battery calberation, also use deep sleep battery, and greenify

Yea, I noticed that Rom Manager seems to think this is a tf201 and I was very tempted to try flashing the recovery for it but seriously don't want to wind up with an expensive brick.

Add busybox latest version.Inside romtoolbox the functions that worked are, boot animation, and font changer works, xposed app and xposed install (change the launcher app to DPI 190, Fullscreen and you get a nice size icon going on + put always potrait mode orientation, ill post a screen for that.) Pimp my Rom app use universial Init.d support to activate that, add block and system tweaks for network, VM Heap size, ect....just dont mess with the kernel or cpu because that will lock up your device then you have to reboot then the setting dont stick and also dont apply any flashable mods or tweaks because you dont have a custom recovery yet. The apps to save battery life are DS Battery Saver and Greenify.I got my device up to 4400 one time. Custom kernel would be cool clock it to 1.6 vroooom
Ok, so anyone else's GPS failing to lock after rooting? It sees plenty of satellites, but the notification icon never blinks as if it's trying to lock and no love actually locking on.

it didn't happen to me but I used pimp my ROM app to lock onto my GPS its a mod with in the app. try it out. I did have a few apps force close on me since I rooted they don't want to launch they just kick me out without any error message. but those apps are like a few games I never play anyway.
Howdy all!
What's this? Read on, dear reader, to discover the magic that is PurpleDrake.

What is this?
This is a utility to easily root your LG G3 (specific models only). It's a fairly foolproof script that includes all the dependencies you'll need for getting your phone rooted easily.
This is the LITE version. This means that this version will only ROOT your phone. If you have a T-Mobile G3, we'd suggest you look for the full version in this same forum on XDA, since that will root, install TWRP, and prevent your root checker from showing your phone as rooted!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Who made this?
This root is a collaboration between myself (IOMonster), jcase, and autoprime.
Special thanks also to beaups for some initial guidance looking at the vulnerable application.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Is my phone compatible?
The new LG G3 models each are slightly different with regards to rooting and unlocking.
The vulnerability we're exploiting for PurpleDrake has actually been present on quite a few LG phones for some time, and as such this script will automatically detect if your phone is capable of rooting with this method.
To see a matrix of which LG G3 phones are compatible with this root, please see this Google Docs spreadsheet that we've compiled.
When you run this program, your phone will reboot and run a test to see if it's compatible. If the application succeeds, it'll let you know that it's able to permaroot you. If not, it'll fail gracefully and reboot you back to normal Android without having changed anything.

How do I use this?
WE NOW SUPPORT WINDOWS! YAY ME
To start, for either platform you'll need to scroll down to the download section and get the file.
Ensure that your phone is in ADB mode (PTP Mode for everyone but Verizon. Verizon users need to be in "Internet"/"Ethernet" mode)
Linux Instructions (in a terminal!)
Extract the file you downloaded...
tar xvf ~/Downloads/PurpleDrake-Lite_VERSION.tar.gz
Mark the application as executable, and run it!
cd PurpleDrake-Lite
chmod +x purpledrake_linux.sh
./purpledrake_linux.sh
OSX Instructions (just a bit easier)
Extract the file you downloaded
Double-click on "purpledrake_osx"
Windows Instructions
Extract the file you downloaded
Double-click on "purpledrake_windows"
The application will guide you through all the steps you need.
You will still need to install SuperSU from the market after installing PurpleDrake. This pack does not include one.
After, be sure to check @autoprime's post for how to disable OTA upgrades! here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54254062&postcount=2
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But, what if I don't want to run your script to root?
Well then, I'd be a little hurt, but you can still do everything the script does manually.
Download the package, and extract it. Open a terminal in the main folder of the archive and run these commands:
Code:
adb reboot --bnr_recovery
adb push ./assets/start_restore /temp/start_restore
adb push ./assets/permaroot.bin /temp/start_restore
adb reboot
That will perma-root you, however there's no protection from doing something stupid or the phone being incompatible. Please be careful!

Disable OTA:
Open LG Hidden Menu (3845#*851#) --> WLAN Test --> OTA Setting --> OFF
*Replace "851" with your devices model number, 850, 852, 855 etc...
Look, instead of rushing to take an OTA to get the latest software.. think for a moment.
We do no know if the bootloader will stay "unlockable" in future updates. OTA's can update not only software..
but the boot stack as well.. enabling features to block downgrades.. close exploits.. and all sorts of fun stuff.
so.. instead of taking an OTA.. wait for the files to get posted so we can look at things first.. possibly only updating /system, /boot, /modem (maybe tz/rpm)
without updating the rest of the boot stack. ya... do that. Plan on making a lil thread on this soon to make things easier.
EFS Backup:

*Step by step picture guide - [url]http://imgur.com/W83hMPE[/url]
install the drivers.
put phone into Download Mode (power off. unplug USB. pull battery. put battery back in. press/hold Volume Up then plug in USB cable.)
In Windows Device Manager set the phones serial COM port to #41. (*see picture guide for help)
Install LG Flash. In "C:\LG\LG Flash" folder delete megalock dll. Replace with .dll below.
new megalock dll - [url]http://bit.ly/1cQADXm[/url] (this site includes a "download manager.. UNCHECK THE BOX before downloading dll file.)
Run LG Flash in the "C:\LG\LG Flash" folder. Select korean factory if asked.
When LG Flash opens you will see a box to select firmware and dll.
Select LG Flash (.dll).
Select (.tot)
Hit OK (*see picture guide for help)
Hit yellow start button. If you get Milkyway error click ok. LG Flash will then run a crc check on the tot file. Takes a bit.
After crc check finishes unplug the phone. plug phone back in. it should now be seen in LG Flash and start flashing.
Phone will reboot when finished. You may end up on a screen with s "2"... let it sit there for a minute or two.
If stuck on "2" try unplugging the usb cable from the phone.. wait 10 seconds.. then plug the usb cable back in. now wait 30 seconds and hopefully it changes to a "3"
Once the phone says "3" you can unplug the USB.. remove the battery and plug back in.. boot back up... you are now 100% stock.

Has anyone figured out what the hidden menu code is for the vzw vs985, to be able to turn off ota? Plugging in "985" for the model number doesn't work.
Will there be a method to turn off/reset root counter for those of us who used IOroot?

I can confirm that it worked on the D855 euro (10A). so you guys can go ahead and remove the question mark if you want. Also if you give me the right commands I can check if the 855 eur bootloader comes unlocked or not(google doesn't know them )
For me relaunching two times worked with d855 european version v10g leaked. But what about TWRP for D855?

much thanks to iomonster jcase and dees_troy. glad i could play a part in this rad-ness.
I would be careful taking OTA's.. wouldnt want to lose an unlock(too early to say..)
Disable OTA:
Open LG Hidden Menu --> WLAN Test --> OTA Setting --> OFF
(This worked on LG G2.. hopefully work on G3 but won't be confirmed until OTA comes out)
Hidden menu = 3845#* then model then #.. so 3845#*851# --> 3845#*850# --> 3845#*855# etc etc

ofcourse using the corresponding file for d855 from THIS thread.
Thanks !!! Good work!!!!

Works on the F400S. Probably the easiest thing I have ever done in my life.
Is there a way to check root on LG G3 though? I don't see the SU app, though I can use Titanium Backup without a problem.

I have a pair of the FPV Drone Edition. Have side loaded a few apps. Haven't rooted since Galaxy S3 ( back on iPhone now) am interested to get this going
Hi !
It seems the rooting of intel devices follow the scheme:
-get bootimg
-patch it
-allow oem bootloader (voiding warranty and endangering future updates)
-flash the patched bootimg and pray
Is this correct or did i oversimplify or generalize too much or am i plain wrong, anyone ?
Greetings,
Ender
P.S. Greetings dvegaman
Bump.
Well, BUMP, goddamn
Just came across 2 pairs of these (BT-300s).
If the lack of interest in rooting is due to lack of hardware, reach out to me privately here on XDA; would happily donate one to kickstart some development efforts.

This may seem easy to others but I figured out how to do a factory data reset using ADB... something that would've helped when my BT-300 went into a boot loop last weekend...
***DO AT YOUR OWN RISK! NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR BRICKING, ETC..... (but it worked fine for me).
1. Install "minimal_adb_fastboot_v1.4.2_setup.exe" (google it and grab at your own risk) on your Windows PC.
2. Go to the BT-300 and:
a. Under Security allow unknown sources
b. Under Developer Options allow USB debugging and unlock bootloader.
3. Connect same powered up BT-300 to PC via USB cable.
4. Start up that minimal ADB program. It will open in command prompt.
5. Check connection by typing "adb devices"
Should see "EMBT3C device" on PC
6. Now type, "adb reboot recovery" and wait for android with triangle/exclamation point to appear after device reboots. You will notice the physical buttons flash purple too.
7. Press and hold power button. Also press Vol Up, then release Vol Up and finally release Power button.
You should now see the recovery menu including "wipe data/factory reset", cache clear, and so on...
NOW... if I could get recovery.zip image to restore if I "kill" it to reload with ADB... THEN I'd try root. There must be a way. I just want GApps 5.1.1 on the thing for starters.
Still struggling with rooting... No dice so far. I've never rooted any Android... Once rooted can we then save the original factory ROM someplace safe, or do I need that first from another source? Newbie questions . I know just enough to be dangerous! LOL.
I got the factory image

If you get into bootloader mode and fastboot flash it into the recovery partition, you can adb root it and then install supersu from there. I just trashed my device though so be sure to do a full image backup first haha.

Tried to load up opengapps, then every time I rebooted it would be "optimizing apps" I tried to side-load the OTA again and poof, it killed the system partition.
The ota apparently doesn't have the full image. Right now I am trying to hack together something from another cherry rom and side load it, but I need a DD of someones system Glad twrp still works or I wouldn't have shell root access to fix.

Ok I am retarded. I didn't configure twp correctly so all the folders it had were wrong. So when I went to use the install tool it screwed up majorly.
Just glad I didn't overwrite the bootloader
PS - Ok, I figured out how to restore the original recovery loader and it recovered fine. It must be something in this hacked version of twip that isn't applying the ota correctly. Going to try to build a version of twip just for this

You are not. I am the noob trying to figure out the whole root process and I don't even know how to backup the existing bootloader and ROM so I can restore it with ADB if I screw it all up in root..... I feel clueless and know just enough to be dangerous... yet for some reason, I'm not afraid, just need to learn.

I am both impressed with your progress and baffled why I after I download SecureUpdateInfo I can't get to the zip file. Grrrrrrr.

Whew! I did it. First I took the instructions from here as a start:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/root-tutorial-intel-atom-cherry-trail-t3468330
In fact, if you can "almost" follow the instructions verbatim. The problem is that the data drive is encrypted and the default android password didn't work so I had to modify the boot.img to not encrypt the data partition then do a wipe. supersu installed fine then.
As for gapps, that was tricky. You have to manually install google webview apk as the built in one is garbage.
Still working on the vr settings. Camera has issues with scaling as I think good believes it to be a widescreen when its a 4.3.
Once I get it down, I will make a boot.img and recovery.img that should just work.

Ok cool but this nokia phone can't be bootloaded into; it's always locked, even if you tick on allow oem unlocking in dev settings fastboot will tell you it doesn't have permission. Whats the purpose of this? Is there some kind of way to get past it that I am not aware of?

You need to unlock bootloader, it is a paid service....
@Maherabed1986 can you add link to the bootloader unlock to your guide?

I have not seen this service anywhere, I did see that a page containing this service was deleted due to paid services, though. Regardless, I can imagine only a few handfuls of people being able to make use of this, which is a shame.. I hope in the future some method of unlocking it at home gets discovered, but that probably won't happen knowing nokia.

I also hope, not because $5 is much for it, but I rather do it myself w/o giving my IMEI or any other infos to someone. As it was on Nexus devices.

No i can't but you can ask the guys on the groups
I'm new here and I don't know much about phones but I'll ask a dumb question anyway. Can't you do something about unlocking the bootloader now that you have a working rooted version w/ twrp ? If the answer is no please elaborate on why not.

Because no one still now how to generate serial number and Imei number to get unlock file only one who knows that and he selling it for others and others resell it to me /you/ and othere users
@Maherabed1986 Thank you for getting this device rooted. Why does Magisk has Preserve force encryption selected by default?
Is the Nokia 6.1 encrypted by default? I had many Android devices and none were encrypted by default. I didn't know this Nokia was encrypted until I saw it on Magisk.
@Maherabed1986 Thanks so much for your efforts, I would like to contribute a dump of my boot.img for my model of Nokia 6.1 (TA-1045) but the instructions didn't quite work the way I expected, when I attempt to temp boot into the bootloader linked for the Nokia 6.1 it just boots into regular Android and then trying to su in the adb shell it tells me the command can't be found (because I am not rooted yet, of course). Am I missing something? How can I help?

Just tired this on my USA Nokia 6.1 TA-1045 ... Used Twrp-N6.1-TA-1045.img (md5 6e9b859f6fe6138aa14beaea6cbdb26d ) in slot a and b using the commands provided and now my phone can't get passed the NOKIA screen. Any ideas?

After doing a "fastboot -w", I was able to boot into TWRP but I am bootlooping when trying to boot into the system. Will do further research
