Rooting a Teclast M16? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone here rooted this tablet with Magisk?
Any very detailed step by step guide somewhere with links to the specific files to download for this tablet? (It'd be great if it didnt't require a PC but even if it does, I'd really appreciate a detailed step by step guide to put Magisk on this tablet)
Thanks

Hi there,
I wouldnt't use Magisk on your device as it might softbrick your drive
So use KINGOROOT.
THE STEPS ARE VERY EASY TO FOLLOW.

Why would Magisk be more risky than Kingoroot on this device? I liked the idea of Magisk because it is systemless root and it is easier to hide from some apps.
Can Kingoroot one click root apk even root a Teclast M16 running android 8?

For M16, there is no root at all yet. I look forward to it myself, but so far there is nothing ....

Hi there,
I tried Magisk on a chinese phone, and after flashing the software, the phone just went into black screen and soft-bricking the whole phone, the phone works in the background but the screen is black. And KINGOROOT will not flash anything into your device.

So you have the tablet yourself and no luck with anything?
I can't seem to find anything on the net about rooting this tablet, it's weird too since it "only" has android 8, not the latest android versions. I sure hope Magisk or another root method is going to be developed soon because I'm really interested in that tablet model.

I heard from another forum user who has the Teclast M16 and he said that Kingoroot didn't work on it.

Hi there,
So i was researching more about this tablet, turns out you can root by installing a custom recovery (TWRP) and from there you can install SUPERSU to achieve root for your tablet. I am not sure if this method works, but if your able to get the stock firmware and the stock recovery and the software to flash the firmware i think you might as well go ahead using that method.
THIS IS THE ARTICLE I FOUND ONLINE :
https://www.getdroidtips.com/how-to-install-twrp-recovery-on-teclast-t30-and-root-it-easily/
*MAKE SURE YOU FIND OUT IF THIS TABLET HAS A TWRP RECOVERY BEFORE DOING ANYTHING ELSE*

Thank you for looking into it, unfortunately that guide is for the Teclast T30 and the guy advises to only use it for that model. I don't own that tablet yet so I can't try any of the steps myself but I'm very interested in this particular model (16/9 ratio, hdmi out, dc charger in, etc...) so I was really hoping to find a tested working method to root it before I go ahead and purchase it.

i found this: https://www.getdroidtips.com/root-teclast-m16/

I rooted my Teclast M16 using Magisk. Simply unlocked the bootloader through adb/fastboot commands, then have magisk manager patch the boot image from firmware download and then flash it using adb/fastboot command line fastboot flash boot magisk_patched_boot.img reboot system and its rooted.
I haven't found a twrp recovery yet, but I'm thinking about trying my hand at building my own, despite being a noob.

I can confirm
install adb fast boot
Enable USB debugging and OEM Unlock on your Android device.
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flashing unlock
Volume up
fastboot reboot
Wait a few minutes to reinstall
enable usb debugging again
download firmware
you will finde a google spreadsheet on the facebook page of telcast
Copy boot.img on the device
install magisk manager via apk
install magisk via patch boot.img in download folder
download patched boot.img
patch device
adb reboot-bootloader
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched_boot.img
fastboot reboot

Hi.
I tried to unlock the bootloader .
adb devices command shows the m16.
I send the command "adb reboot bootloader" - the device enter in bootloader.
next I send the command "fastboot devices" and I get this:
PS E:\modified_fastboot> fastboot devices
???????????? fastboot
any help to make fast boot see the device?
Thank you

Hi, You bad comand when bootloader. When bootloader after comand: " fastboot oem unlock" , luck on skreen, push volume up, wait moment, after next comand:"fastboot reboot". After this command, the tablet will reset to factory settings with unlocked bootloader.

Hello everyone. I have TWRP for M16, everything is almost fine, after uploading it normally work on M16, except for touch not working, I did not check if it works with the mouse. Maybe someone will find it to correct it so that the touch works? I upload the file, it may be useful to someone. Regards RW

Ok, good news. There is a easy way to recover from soft bricked Z380C-CX. I had my ZenPad Z380CX, Android 5.0.2, kernel WW rooted and i start playing with it, I managed to soft-brick it after installing wrong kernel, and would get stuck to Logo. I tried the adb cmd option without luck, but here is how i recover it without loosing any app installed, any settings, etc. It's the same like before, i just lost root, but you can re-root after:
You need to download (choose the rom accordingly for your device):
1. Firmware
2. Asus Flash Tool
2. Drivers
-WW_Z_380C_v4.9.8_all_user_P022_fastboot.7z or WW_Z380C-v4.9.8_all_user.raw (i got the .raw file): https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...e-solution-t3165954/post71688236#post71688236
-Download Asus Flash too v1.0.0.34 (the newer one didn't work for me, so i used this): http://www.mediafire.com/file/bf97od5uengfgak/AsusFlashToolInstaller1.0.0.34.msi
-Download ADB and fastboot and install on your pc, (may also need usb, google or intel drivers, if your device isn't recognized by adb cmd!), can find all here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/help/adb-recognize-asus-zenfone-2-phone-t3151208
Now you have all you need, so check if your device is recognized by adb; Go to C:\ in your computer and look for "adb" folder. If it's not there, you didn't install it. Enter adb and hold "shift" while pressing right mouse, and click on "open command window here". Now you type in the command: adb device and enter, you should get a list with some random info / numbers. If nothing happens, reinstall adb; If you get it work, restart your device and when reboots, hold Volume Up and Power to boot in fastboot. Now, on pc, type the command: fastboot device, and if you get the numbers, your good to continue.
-Open Asus Flash Tool
-Select device from left top drop box menu
-Select "Wipe Data" to NO
-Select the image/zip firmware file from PC download folder, to flash
-Make sure your tablet is in Fastboot mode
-If no device appeared in your Flash Tool, disconnect and reconnect USB cable to PC
-At this point you should get your device number in Flash Tool window, followed by a blue large dot
-Click once on your listed device to highlight
-Press START green button above, to begin flashing.
(You can either get a message: "Failed-Cannot unzip file"- the dot turns Red, or "Unzipping Files"- the dot turns Yellow.) Try to use .7z file instead .raw, or vice versa.
-After flashing, you'll be required to reboot your device, wait and hope
-Now on Flash Tool, the dot is Green and the message: "Flash image successfully xxx-xxxxx"
-You should be have all your apps installed, all settings same, etc. If you had it rooted, now root is gone, and you should re-root.
Hope this will work well for you, as it did for me. Just remember, i am not responsible for anything you choose to do to your device, and i am not gonna take any responsibility if this doesn't work for you.
hey, I just got an Asus p022 tablet. and was looking to root but I can't understand the directions. can I get some help or some noob instructions?

Why is rooting a generic android 6.0 Marshmallow device so difficult ?

The root programs either don't work or are run by
extremely shady companies like KingoRoot. If I ask something here, no one answer or I get incomplete answers.
There's contradictory information everywhere, like I heard I need root to be able to install a custom recovery.
And I heard I need to install the custom recovery to be able to root. Wtf?
Even the guys who create the programs like Clockworkmod provide no info, where is clockwork recovery?
Why is it conspicuously missing from the creator's website? Why does TWRP also provide no info on their website?
Is this some conspiracy to keep rooting out of the reach of anyone but the android elite?
I have seriously never seen such a frustrating mess in my entire career in IT of over 20 years.
Because the software rooting method is find security hole on device an exploit it. But Google has strengthened the security that was first put in place in Lollipop, essentially making it unfeasible to launch the su daemon with the required permissions just by modifying the /system partition. So only Systemless Root method will work on Marshmallow or above.
For how to root Marshmallow device, I suggest you to take a look at SuperSU forum.
Hope this help you

Thanks a lot! Could you tell me do I need to root it before I can flash a custom recovery like TWRP or Clockwork Recovery or can I flash those with fastboot regardless of the the tablet being rooted?
I was able to unlock the bootloader.

If you are using fastboot, you don't need to worry about root.
You can flash recovery with fastboot.

If you have a device with unlocked bootloader, then rooting it is easy.
First what you need to prepare:
1. A PC that have adb and fastboot installed
2. A custom recovery that match your device (TWRP Recovery for example)
3.. Enable the Usb Debugging on your device
How to:
1. Connect your PC and device with cable
2. Open cmd and enter this command:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
3.Once your device boots into bootloader mode, enter this command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery \Path-where-you-stored-the-twrp-file\twrp.img
4. Once TWRP is successfully flashed on your device, run the following command:
Code:
fastboot reboot
After that, you can boot into twrp recovery and install the SuperSU zip file to root the device.
Thats it, the usual way to root an android device. But if your device brand is Samsung, you have to flash recovery throught odin.
Hope this solve your problem.

[TUTORIAL] Rooting and unbricking with latest firmware as of 2019

Doing this quick update because today, when trying to root my phone, bricked it several times and lost all app info
If you are using android 7.11, this guide works fine: https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-3-zoom/how-to/how-to-root-zenfone-3-zoom-ze553kl-t3622256
If on android 8, SuperSU will brick your phone. Use Magisk instead:
- enable usb debug mode on your phone
- unlock bootloader
- plug phone into your computer
on your pc
- Download fastboot and adb:
* Windows: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip
* macos: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-darwin.zip
* linux: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-linux.zip
- download the latest Magisk unlock script from https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases and copy it to a MicroSD or USB that you can attach to your phone. Look for Magisk, not Magisk Manager
- download twrp v 3.1.0-0-Z01H-20170408: https://mega.nz/#F!p90wgAaY!l1JbJilmAUEKTKWu43pT9w?E81jQTCD (this is from https://mega.nz/#F!p90wgAaY!l1JbJilmAUEKTKWu43pT9w, as described in the old root guide using twrp + supersu. It is supposed to be safe)
- `adb reboot bootloader`
- `fastboot flash recovery <path to twrp image downloaded>`
- `fastboot reboot`
Right now, you should probably backup your phone.
back on your phone:
- before booting, press volume up on the bootloader, there, select Recovery. Using fastboot to reboot into recovery might cause the stock recovery image to reflash
- if prompted to enable system modifications, allow it.
- If prompted to decrypt your data in TWRP, use the PIN you setup. If it doesn't work, I can't guarantee you won't brick our phone. Feeling brave enough? In case of brick keep reading, it is easy to restore your phone to stock Android 8 using official firmware.
- press install, choose the device attached to your phone that has Magisk-xxx.zip and select it
- flash the image and it should be OK
In case of brick or unsuccessful flash from SuperSU and without backup:
- Don't panic, like I did today
- download the latest firmware from Asus: https://www.asus.com/us/Phone/ZenFone-3-Zoom-ZE553KL/HelpDesk_BIOS/
- follow this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-3-zoom/how-to/manually-update-to-7-11-t3815703
- when the phone reboots, boot into recovery
- enable ADB sideload
- on your pc: `adb sideload <path to newest firmare>`
- now follow the root guide above before starting your phone
- ???
- profit
Note: commands using adb and fastboot assume you have put the contents from the downloaded platform tools in your PATH, else execute them from the directory in which they were extracted, for instance, on linux:
- `cd /home/$USER/Downloads`
- `unzip platform-tools-latest-linux.zip`
- `cd platform-tools`
- `./adb devices`
Bricked my phone.
in which step?
You should have access to fastboot, try the downgrade tutorial and install android 7 then imediately flash the latest image from ASUS

After the magisk install. It logged some "can't mount partition" errors, I tried to wipe, but do not worked.
It got stucked on Asus logo.
I did the unbrick tutorial.
This is strange. Magisk is supposed to patch the boot image and install its app (by the way, if you update magisk using the app, phone enters bootloop)
Anyway, I have encountered myself many problems when installing, but nothing like this. Bootloops and corruption message on bootloader yes, but I can't seem to recall anything about partitions not being mounted. If installing stock recovery image, boot image and system doesn't do the trick, in my experience it is either bad partitioning, although unlikely, because those procedures doesn't repartition anything, or bad internal storage.
But just to be sure, you should reflash stock 7.1 image (recovery, boot and system) with fastboot, enter stock recovery and wipe cache/factory reset. If your phone is physically healthy, this should work

I can't really help you there. This guide is supposed to work for those who are able to unlock bootloader using official asus tools. Never heard of unofficial unlock methods. It is possible that you have a hardware problem if you use those tools and they just don't work.

Have you used the latest official unlocking tool? I see there's a July 2019 version available.
If you are on an older version of Android (not Oreo) are you presently still getting OTA update prompts?
I tried this tool but no result.
is it possible to root ZE553KL without loosing user application's data? I have unrooted device, wanted to migrate telegram secret chats to new phone. it is doable but with rooted smartphone only. if rooting process is destructive I cannot migrate. if rooting is doable with preserving installed applications along with their data then there is a hope for successful migration.
does this method look promising or it is just fake method?

Question Moto G Power (2021) RETCA

Hello, I am from Canada and I just got a Moto G Power (2021) XT2117-4 with the firmware QZBS30.Q4-43-129-2. I unlocked the bootloader thru Motorola with no problems. I installed Rescue and Smart Assistant and downloaded my firmware. I patched the boot.img thru Magisk and flashed it to my phone using ADB. I was not able to achieve root. I also tried to boot thru recovery mode but got the no command sign. I then rescued my phone and tried it again flashing to both boot_a and boot_b still to no avail. If anyone has any info on why this is and has a solution to my problem it would be greatly appreciated.

That is just how the patched boot.img is created.
Now you have to flash it with fastboot.exe
Been thru that already no root.
Do I have to rename it to boot.img when I flash it or can I leave with with the patched name?
I am going to start from scratch again. I don't think I made a mistake because I rooted my G7 Play this way too. I also get feedback from terminal confirming flashing.

Rooting your phone is still possible — and fun — these days. Here's how to do it on your Android device.

Followed link instructions exactly and still no root. Maybe I have to go with a TWRP recovery method. I will keep checking forums for others having same issue.

Ok, if you want help you have to give details.
No root means nothing.
I downloaded firmware from Rescue assistant copied boot.img to phone selected it thru magical and patched it. Copied patched boot.img to PC. Put it in ADB folder renamed it back to boot.img. Opened up ADB terminal and flashed - fastboot flash boot boot.img. Terminal said writing boot_a......okay.....finished. reboot no root. Tried again with flashing to boot_a and to boot_b. Reboot still no root. That's about all I can tell you everything checked out including ramdisk - yes in Magisk, boot.img from same firmware that is currently on phone. Not sure why it's not working.
Actually, sorry phone is now rooted. Once I added root checker to superuser in magisk it showed phone was successfully rooted Thanks for all your help!
Just to confirm, as I've yet to root my device and may encounter this same issue. Did you solve it having done anything different with the rooting procedure or was it a simple matter of adding the root app to Magisk SU? If the latter, Did magisk display the SU prompt at all?
Yes, the root instructions are good. I think why Magisk did not prompt me, initially was because my phone was setting up for the first time and it was bogged down by Google restoring apps etc. Now Magisk prompts me every time for root apps.
So I'm Down to Help this is what I did. So
Download Rescue and blah blah assistant
Found My Phone Checked and Double Checked all information then when I did so I extract led the Folder to My desktop, looked inside it's little bundle of goodness to find boot.img pulled it out and connect my Moto G.
At This Point I Just Opened up My Phone storage (from My P.C) pulled it out and stuck it in my main storage.
At that point Went and Got Magisk v.23 renamed the download as Magisk v.23.apk
Then Riped her Open Like A wild animal installed the .apk (If the File Manager or whatever you are using won't let you install go to settings for the particular File Manager you are using on your phone and allow download a from unknown sources)
Pulled out the boot.img I put in my main storage and went to My sexy New Magisk App and selected "select and Patch a file"
At the Point stepped out for a quick smoke and had a tug.
Then your final product will be Magisk_patchedv23.img (or something like that)
Then after you get all that mumbo move that back to your P.C
I assume you have adb fastboot
So then I pull it up (not sure if it affects anything but I did adb Root)
Anywho first I did
adb devices -l
As soon as I see my phone se then I know I got it.
#also side not make sure the wording next to the device says device
Ok so at the point type
adb reboot fastboot
Then repeat same command as the adb one
Fastboot devices
#seeyour device? Dope
Then wherever you put that patched image sometimes you need to put the FULL path
Example for me it was
Fastboot flash magisk_patched.img boot
Which didn't work so tried the _a still nothing soo hence the FULL PATH I put it on my desktop if you don't know the full path right click the file and hit properties
final Command for me
fastboot flash boot C:\Users\insan\Desktop\magisk_patched.img
Boom Done and Done!!!! And as always take Back Ups Before and After and Save that Patch .img
I've needed it like 10 times !
Hope That Helps Ya
And the last pic Is Proof
God Bless, and Good Luck!

How To Guide [GUIDE][ROOT][MAGISK] How to Root ACE 2/11R with Magisk without TWRP

Hello everyone hope you are all keeping well.
Since I believe that many of you don't know about this, I've decided to share the steps I've done in order to root the OP 11R ( ACE 2 )
I cannot be responsible if you brick your device. Your phone, your choices, your responsibility!
1 - Unlock the bootloader (if you haven't done it already...beware that this will erase all of your user data). To do so, you must:
Enable developer options
Enable the "OEM unlocking" option
Enable USB debugging
Have both adb and fastboot, from SDK Platform Tools available on your PC
Connect your phone to your PC using the USB cable and run the following commands:
adb devices
adb reboot bootloader
(so your phone will reboot into fastboot mode)
fastboot flashing unlock
(device should now unlock)
fastboot reboot
(device reboots with an unlocked bootloader and data partition wiped so set up the device from scratch again)
2 - Download OP 11R stock boot.img that you may find later on this post, that matches your current build.
Copy the boot.img to your devices internal memory
Leave a copy of it on your PC (on the same folder you have adb and fastboot...you never know if you will need to use it again in the future...to restore the stock boot.img, aka revert to stock...)
Indian Boot.img A_0.8 - download
3 - Download latest Magisk Manager from HERE and install it on your phone
4 - Open Magisk Manager App and press:
Install
Select and Patch a File
Browse to the path where you saved stock boot.img and select it
Magisk Manager will now patch the boot image and store it in [Internal Storage]/Download/magisk_patched.img
5 - Copy the patched boot image from your device to your PC (Store it on the same folder where you have adb and fastboot)
6 - Flash the patched boot image to your phone by running these commands (remember, you must have patched boot image on the same folder you have adb and fastboot and, of course, your device must be connected to your PC...)
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img
fastboot reboot
7 - After the phone boots up, hopefully with a normal boot (almost feels like nothing happened....), install/open Magisk Manager App again and watch Magisk doing it's magic!
8 - Enjoy!
All credits goes to topjohnwu and his incredible work with Magisk.

MB ... typo
Thank you for detailed steps.
Is there any benefit with KernelSU over this method ?
I always used Magisk on OP8, but recently saw an article for OP11 with Kernel SU.
Also is there MSM tool support to recover softbriked device ?

Sorry but there is no msm tool available for new OnePlus devices. + You can use Fastboot enhance tool from github to recover softbrick , magisk is always recommended for rooting because of ease of steps and simple to use
Hello, thanks for the detailed instructions. Today I updated to A. 10, and unfortunately lost my root access. Without the root cannot extract the boot image. If you're already updated and have a backup of A. 10 boot, can you please share?

Then remember to take a backup of the boot before rebooting. I messed up big time.
Thanks for the detailed information man. Can I know if bootloader unlock decreases widevine L1 to L3? As this was case with my OP6
