There is a link for TWRP and SuperSU inside, TWRP can be flashed using adb, i won't explain how to flash it with adb because there is plenty of guides that can help you (use google to search "how to flash TWRP with ADB ).
in TWRP flash SuperSU to have root.
For Custom ROMs and to upgrade to latest Android version:
Inside the link i gave you, there is a folder named CM, inside it, there is a file with the name (lineage-14.1-20170310 UNOFFICIAL-nx549j.zip) that is the latest LineageOS 14.1 rom with android 7.1.1, you can flash it in recovery with a compatible gapps of course.

Use this TWRP:
https://cloud.mail.ru/public/9346/QZnnNkU2f/twrp_3.0.2-0_NX549J_20161125.img
When you flash TWRP, make a factory wipe (system, data, cache, dalvik cache) and install this LineageOS 14.1 i told you about if you want a pure rom without any customizations, and flash gapps from Opengapps.org (ARM>7.1>Pico), if you want a rom with customizations, use this Resurrection Remix Marshmallow rom and flash gapps that is (ARM>6.0>Pico).

You have to rename the TWRP to twrp.img and then enable usb debugging in your phone and connect it to pc, and proceed with the rest of the guide.
"Waiting for device" can be fixed by installing PDANet from Pdanet.co
Download it and install it then disconnect your phone and reconnect it to pc and start over.
Ps: there is no commands like the one said above, the right commands are "adb reboot bootloader" and "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" there is a step by step guide here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32965365
Follow the instructions under Install Via ADB section.
These instructions are the easiest available and there is no way i can explain easier.

I can't make a video and i can't use my pc because it's my las year in high school, so it's forbidden from me.
Try asking those guys in here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/rooting-roms/root-nubia-z11-mini-s-nx549j-t3506407/
They might be able to help you.
Edit: i found something in the thread
Enable usb debbuging, enter fastboot via volume - and Power....probably volume down
Type: fastboot flash recovery twrp.img in cmd window that you opened in the twrp folder.
twrp.img file needs to be in the same folder as adb
Try it and let me know

Hi. Lets check first your IMEI. So.. dial *#06# and see if your IMEI are there!
If you have IMEI you must check if you have custom recovery like TWRP, CWM, CARLIV, ETC, ETC.
If you have custom recovery things are easy.
Go to General section/How about some modems post. Download KitKat modems and flash untill you have signal.
If you dont have custom recovery you must install one.
Go to Q&A section / Rooting tutorial for KitKat. There you will find an tutorial to how to!
Tell us where you dont know !

In those tools uploaded there is one called: Baralajbi v2.0_TWRP_v2.8.4.0 rev2 CN.zip

1. Install MobileUncle Tool. Unzip recovery.img
2. Copy that recovery.img to your internal memory
3. Start MUT grant root rights and go to recovery update
4. Look there for the first recovery that appears.
5. Select and install.
6. After flash reboot to recovery. That is it.
7. Tell me if you dont manage.

What you have is ROW from Baralajbi.
This firmware is an impruved part of chinese firmware.
If you want to install a custom recovery take a screenshot of your firmware and post here.
The screenshot must be from: Settings/About Phone so i can see your firmware name and your modem.
If you want to do a team viewer session PM me.
Let me know your country so i know what time you are, like +2, +3, +4, etc

Do you have an unlocked bootloader? You need to check in fastboot mode, by typing in fastboot oem device-info
you may have to boot straight to recovery, or the recovery image may get overwritten
my bootloader is locked.i think above method is for locked bootloader.right.i pressed power+volume up right after flashing(after disconnecting cable),phone showed mi logo and then after 5-6 seconds its showing to connect cable again. also when i use miflash tool to unlock bootloader.its not showing advanced menu in miflash tool.any solutionfor that too.my desktop is windows 7 32 bit os.do i need a 64 bit os to get all options in miflash tool.pls any solution.

I can't write you a detailed step-by-step guide because my English is not so perfect, but: you need to install the Global/Chinese Developer rom. Must be Developer rom, but you can choose which of them (Chinese or Global).
I made it with Global Developer, so I can confirm that this method perfectly works.
Luck!

Sharing fully working TWRP by wzsx150 (Tested)

I want to share a fully working TWRP for Redmi K30 (phoenix). It also works for Poco X2 (phoenixin).
This is not my work. I am just sharing it. All credits go to wzsx150 (a Chinese developer) who created this TWRP. I just made the batch file simple because the original one was written in Chinese and I don't understand at all. I have tested this TWRP many times and everything works including decryption, mounting partitions, etc.. You may need to change language because everything is written in Chinese by default. I attached English TWRP interface for you to set language easily.
TWRP with simplified batch file
Mod edit: link removed
Instruction for newbie
-Unlock bootloader
-Put your phone into fastboot mode
-Connect to PC (require driver installed)
-Extract downloaded TWRP zip
-Double click !flash.bat in extracted folder
Done

You don't need to flash TWRP to flash xiaomi.eu for K30 because the ROM for this model was released to flash through fastboot mode. They didn't release the ROM in flashable zip form like any other models.
Unlock bootloader
Download and unzip the ROM
flash it through fastboot
Done

The link isn't working
Hi there dear OP,
Since you are sharing the work of someone else, there are at least two issues involved:
1. You need permission from the developer to post this
2. If you do so, you have to also publish the sources of the TWRP to comply with GPL requirements.
For this reason, link is removed and thread closed.
If you solve the above issues, PM me and I'll be happy to reopen the thread.

[GUIDE] How to Root Nokia 4.2

This guide will show you how to root your Nokia 4.2. This has been tested on TA-1157 and is working fine.
**Important** - If fastboot does not recognise your device In step 5, You need to download a driver. Here is the link: Download Driver (by Beebom)
Search up how to install custom driver and install it to the “Android” device.
Requirements:
Nokia 4.2 with unlocked bootloader
USB Cable
ADB/Fastboot.
Python
Your current ROM file
Internet.
Downloads:
ADB Installer (by Snoop05 on xda) : Download
Python : Download
Payload Dumper (vm03 on github): Download ( Click on code and select "download ZIP")
Magisk APK (on your phone) : Download APK ( Scroll down and you will find the APK file)
Code:
** I have only tested this on TA-1157. Other models may not work, but technically they should work.**
** Your warranty is now Void**
Step 1
Enable USB debugging on your phone. If you do not know how to do this, Search it up. It is easy.
Once that's enabled, Connect your phone to your PC/Laptop and open the command prompt (cmd) and type adb devices. It should show your device in the list.
Step 2
Locate the Python folder. To do this, simply type "python" in the start menu and click open file location. Then, Right click on "python.exe" and open properties. Then click open file location.
Once the folder opens, make sure to not close it.
Download the payload dumper.py which I have linked in the downloads section. Extract it and place the contents of the file in the Python folder.
Step 3
Download the ROM file. If you are using lineage OS on your Nokia 4.2, Download that file. If you are using the Stock rom, Download that. It should be a .zip file.
Extract the stuff from that file and take payload.bin and move it to the python folder.
Now, Open cmd in that directory by right clicking and opening cmd. Then, Type the following commands,
Code:
python -m pip install -r requirements.txt
then type,
Code:
python payload_dumper.py payload.bin
Once it is done extracting, Open the "output" folder. There you will find the "boot.img" file
Step 4
Use your USB cable or Google drive to transfer the "boot.img" to your phone. Once you have done that, Download the Magisk APK on your phone and install the app. (APK link in downloads section)
Once you have installed Magisk, open it and click "Install". Select the file from your phone and wait a few minutes for magisk to patch the "boot.img" file.
Once Magisk is finished patching, there will be a new file which magisk has created. Transfer the patched file to your computer via the USB cable or Google drive and make sure to rename it as "magisk_patched.img"
Step 5
You are almost done! Open CMD in the folder where you saved the "magisk_patched.img" and type
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
then type
Code:
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img
Once done, Reboot your phone and Voila! Your phone is now rooted. Make sure to open the magisk app and check it.

Personally, I do not recommend Kingroot as it is not very reliable and safe. Instead, you can follow this guide or follow other guides on youtube.
