[Tweak] how to root with system.img

(13-07-2018, 12:23 AM)X3non looking at the partitions you got error trying to flash, i don't think you really need them to boot the phone to homescreen
after flashing the partitions you listed above as successful, are you able to boot to homescreen?
if yes, check if everything is working properly; IMEI etc
Yes I was able to boot to home screen but the issue now is rooting the device...I brought up the partition topic because oem was among the files that failed and it seems I need it to unlock the bootloader cos my commands are getting failed
Everything is working fine, IMEI was missing but I have restored it and I haven't seen any issue with it yet

doubt you'll need the oem partition, its more likely those cmds you issued arent supported. check for fastboot cmds using the guide at https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-21403.html

try to read the entire length of the guide esp the intro and the important notice at the end [if any]. they usually contain important info you might not even get in a video tutorial
"I'll be using a Qualcomm Android phone and its aboot.img as an example in this guide. This would also work with a Mediatek phone's LK.bin and a Spreadtrum phone's Uboot.bin / Fdl2.bin files."
use LK.bin for mtk device

other keyword you can search for in place of oem is "fastboot". [you probably wont find anything useful]
the list of commands displayed are the commands your device will support. your device doesn't support fastboot unlock command
fastboot won't be of any help since it doesnt even support unlock
referring to https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-214...#pid141304
i'll use a command from the list in your screenshot. you got "oem reboot-recovery"
you run the command while the phone is in fastboot mode using "fastboot oem reboot-recovery"

ok sir but what will the fastboot command do? And do I have to place my stock recovery.img in the platform/SDK folder?
Thanks in advance

That will boot your phone into recovery mode from fastboot. No, stock recovery.img isn't needed

(20-08-2018, 06:46 PM)ryfoz I'm back boss, sadly I didn't find any tutorial on how to build Superuser or Magisk script from scratch.

I don't think a system.img tweak makes much sense as it would trip other security checks in place.
send the following files, i need to take a closer look
preloader
boot
recovery
lk
persist (if available)
