Elephone M3 quickest way to UNLOCK Bootloader, ROOT and TWRP (no SP FlashTool) Windows/ Linux.
This is only provided as a guide and/ or an alternative, in case some people find the process of flashing with SP FlashTool for the Elephone M3 complicated (either installing the correct drivers, or correctly using the tool without accidentally wiping Vram, or anything else important).
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Windows:
Things you will need:
1. adb and fastboot
2. usb driver for Elephone M3
3. a copy of a correct version of TWRP for the device, copied in the adb and fastboot folder. Rename your TWRP.img file to recovery.img
4. latest flashable supersu.zip (V2.82 and above) and the recovery.img on external SD card.
Process:
1. Install the above.
2. Boot your phone normally, and enable developer options.
3. From developer options enable OEM unlocking and USB debugging. Connect the device to computer and enable MTP transfer.
4. On your phone's screen you should see a message with a "key" or "fingerprint", accept the connection.
5. Navigate to the folder you have installed adb and fast boot and copied pre-mentioned file.
6. Open a command prompt navigate to the adb folder (not powershell prompt if you are on windows 10 1703) and type: adb devices
If all is well you should get a number on the left and "device" next to it.
7. type "adb reboot to bootloader". You are now in fastboot.
8. type "fastboot oem unlock". Carefully look the really small letters on the elephone' s screen and confirm. Reboot the device. Really important as after unlocking the bootloader, a factory reset is triggered.
9. Once the factory reset is done, once again enable developer otions and usb debugging.
10. Open a command prompt again and once again get into fastboot mode (as previously described).
11. Type "fastboot boot recovery.img". You should now see TWRP.
12. From TWRP select install and install supersu. Wipe dalvik/cache and reboot.
13. Once boot-up completes and you make sure you have root access (you should), for the last time reboot to bootlader.
14. Again "fastboot boot recovery.img". From TWRP select install, install image, select recovery.img from your extenral SD and flash it to recovery.
If all went well, you should by now have unlocked the bootloader, have your device rooted, and also have a functional TWRP recovery! :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
Linux:
Things you will need:

5. type "adb devices". If your device is recognized you should see a number and "device" next to it.
6. type "adb reboot to bootloader". You are now in fastboot.
7. type "sudo fastboot oem unlock". Carefully look the really small letters on the elephone's screen and confirm. Reboot the device. Really important as after unlocking the bootloader, a factory reset is triggered.

Hey bro i want to root my phone by this process but I haven't tried adb ND fastboot ever so it looking little bit tough can you give me proper guidance plz
can anyone pls help with how to root the Lenovo TB-x306f
i already unlocked the bootloader but that's as far as i was able to go with it.
i want to also like to install a recovery to flash the evolutionx rom if someone can pls help me and others that needs the same help.
GOD BLESS
I second that. There's nothing out there.
What I tried was to download the original ROM patch the boot.img with magical, replace in LMSA download folder and start a rescue. Didn't help. Got boot loop.
Ok, maybe a bit more details on what I tried already:
1. Enabled developer options. Good.
2. OEM unlocked. ADB connected. Good.
3. Boot to bootloader working. Good.
4. fastboot not listing the device after fastboot devices. Not good.
5. Googling around, found an universal root method with Magisk. Good.
6. Donwloaded, installed and ran RSA (Lenovo Rescue and Smart Assistant). Connected to device. Good.
7. Entered Rescue and using that downloaded the original ROM. Good.
C:\ProgramData\LMSA\Download\RomFiles\TB_X306F_S100134_210120_BMP
8. Copied boot.img to device, installed MagiskManager, patched image with magisk, downloaded the image to PC, replaced the original boot image with the patched one. Good.
9. Started the Rescue procedure in RSA. Rom flased. Good.
10. Bootloop. Bad.
No idea why would that not work, any help, pointers, ideas appreciated.
EDIT: There's a new ROM version now: TB_X306F_S100152_210205_BMP
For a preface, I have the same Tablet as OP. I tried to unlock the bootloader, following seemingly every guide out there but, no success so far. I've enabled debugging, activated OEM unlock and, adb detects my device but, after I send it to fastboot (adb reboot bootloader), no more commands work. I've updated the driver in Manager as one guide suggested but, still nothing.
I used command (fastboot OEM unlock) to continue but nothing. What am I doing wrong?
So just a tip for those that are looking for a guide to do a complete bootloader unlock for TB-X306F, there isn't one. I found a bunch of different ways to go about unlocking the bootloader from different Lenovo devices. First thing is that you need Minimal ABD Fastboot v1.4.3 if Platform Tools or LeTools doesn't work. Use CMD with admin rights, not PowerShell.
Everything else to unlock it is the same from all the guides out there. Make sure to use "fastboot flashing unlock" when unlocking instead of "fastboot oem unlock" or "fastboot oem unlock-go" if they dont work.
Second tip is for root when installing the Magisk patched boot image. While you're getting the boot.img, make sure to also grab the vbmeta.img from the ROM folder and place it in the Minimal ADB Fastboot folder where you will be using CMD. Do all the steps to get the patched boot image. Once you got the boot.img patched, enter fastboot then enter the command "fastboot --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img" This will disable verification needed to boot correctly. After that, enter the command "fastboot flash boot <name of .img>" like normal to flash the patched boot.img from magisk. Then fastboot reboot.
This is what I did to get my TB-X306F unlocked and rooted. YMMV.

By any chance can u pls.... Make a video on the steps u explained including on where to get that file needed. Pls thank u and GOD BLESS YOU. If u can find the time to do it .
I apologize for asking for so much help on this.
I too would very much care to see a video of the process but, I have no problem trying it first hand to myself. This tablet is just weird. It can be detected but, as soon as I boot into fastboot, it can't pick it up anymore even though, I had grabbed all of the recommended tools so far such as the fast Boot and the bundle.
A detailed guide would be good enough too
Following @doink_doink 's post (and some bootloops after...) I finally managed to root my Lenovo M10 HD 2 gen (TB-X306X) with magisk. I'll attempt to write a simple guide for who's still interested with rooting this kind of devices since there's not much literature online.
Rooting Lenovo M10 X306X (should also work for other models)
I am by no means held responsible for eventual damage you can inflict on your device, follow the underlying steps of your own accord.
Desktop Tools:
Minimal ADB and Fastboot
Lenovo Rescue Smart Assistant (LRSA from now on)
MTK (Mediatek) Preload Drivers (If your device isn't listed in fastboot)
Mobile Tools:
Magisk Manager App
Steps:
1 - From LRSA click on "Rescue" Tab
2 - Select the model of your tablet and then download
3 - From "Downloads" in the top right corner of the LRSA, click on "Open" to go into the LRSA download folder
4 - Connect your device and set it into USB Debugging and File Transfer
5 - Copy boot.img from LRSA download folder into the device's download folder
6 - Run Magisk Manager App on your device
7 - From Magisk Manager App choose "Install" on the right side of Magisk
8 - Choose the only option "Select and patch a file"
9 - Choose the boot.img you previously copied into the device's download folder
10 - Copy the new file "patched_boot.img" or similar name to the folder where Minimal ADB and Fastboot was installed
11 - Copy the file vbmeta.img from LRSA download folder to Minimal ADB and Fastboot folder
12 - From your device's settings enable developer options and enable OEM Unlock
13 - Execute a cmd session with administrator privileges
14 - Execute in the cmd: adb reboot bootloader (if everything went right the device should reboot in fastboot mode)
15 - Execute in the cmd: fastboot flashing unlock
16 - Execute in the cmd: fastboot --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
17 - Execute in the cmd: fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
18 - Execute in the cmd: fastboot reboot
The device should correctly reboot and everything should be good to go now.
If something bad happens, like a bootloop or something, turn off the device and use the LRSA to rescue your device.
I don't get around to checking my email as often as I used to so I just now got around to seeing this but, I will try this after I get home from work in 10 hours plus time. If I can get this to successfully work, I will be flat out amazed. I had gotten to the point where I had just given up any and all hope that I would get it to work.

I'm currently experiencing the same issue. I have done everything, followed every step provided by Chairos and it wont surpass beyond the <Waiting for device> message. I just got this device today for a fair price, hoping I could root the device, and typical me forgot to research if it was officially compatible with TWRP.

Make sure you have the latest MTK usb drivers.
Hello Everyone,
I apologize for the delay but I didn't get notified of your replies.
I also got the waiting for device problem, but as @Yahoo Mike says, it's the MTK USB drivers that are used to communicate with the device in fastboot mode. Latest drivers should do.
Let me know if you're still experiencing the problem after installing the latest MTK drivers, since it depends on which motherboard the tablet has but all models should use mediatek.
Worked like a charm! Thanks.
Can anyone please confirm if there is a TWRP even unofficial IMG out there? And if any kind soul could share the file too I would be so grateful thanks
worked beautifully ...
just the installation of the latest MTK drivers is not very typical. however, you can follow this guide to install MTKL drivers and disable the driver signature enforcement

I received yesterday my TB-X306X, with Android 10 and with software version S100184_210325_BMP. First thing to do was to unlock and root the tablet, without any issue, thanks to clear indications found on this thread.
Has anybody been able to find working TWRP for this tablet ?
All info current as of 05/07/2023All steps were tested on Kubuntu 23.04. Make sure you follow the steps below, in order. Don't skip steps or ignore errors.
On windows, you may've to execute the command from the adb folder and prefix the commands with ./
Rooting your stock ROM:
01. Save boot.img from stock ROM files in your download folder on your phone, if you plan to patch boot.img yourself. Alternatively, you can use the attached already patched boot.img (magisk 26.1).
02. Save the patched boot.img on your computer
03. Boot into stock ROM. Don't bother setting up the phone now. You will get to do it after rooting.
04. Go to settings/About phone. At the bottom, tap on "build number" until developer options are enabled.
05. Connect the phone to your ADB installed computer. Ensure that your computer has the latest version of drivers and the latest version of adb.
06. On your phone, go to settings/system/advanced/developer options. Enable "OEM Unlocking" and "USB debugging". Authorize device when the prompt shows up on your phone.
07. Execute the below commands from the adb folder using the command prompt.
08. adb reboot bootloader. Wait for phone to reboot to fastboot.
09. fastboot flashing unlock. Read disclaimer and press vol+ to confirm that you want the bootloader unlocked.
10. fastboot flash boot_a magisk_patched_A13_26.img. Update file name and include relative path of the file location, as required
11. fastboot reboot
12. You are now rooted. Install Magisk apk and setup the phone and apps.
Sadly, I had to return the phone because there has not been a security update since June 2022. That's more risk than I'm willing to take. There will not be further updates from me on this thread. Hopefully, someone will continue with GSI installs and other work.
