  6. Press the first "Install" button at the top of Magisk > Select and Patch a file.
    • If your device doesn't have a ramdisk, you will see an option called "recovery mode" and don't worry about it. all are fine.
  7. Now choose the TAR file in your storage and Magisk will patch the TAR for the root.
  8. The Patched file is located in the "Downloads" folder in your storage. So, Kindly copy that "Magisk_patched_xxxx.tar" to your PC.

Bootloader Unlocking Process - Old phones like J and Old A series.

  1. Open settings > about phone > software information and tap the build number for 7 times.
  2. Once developer options are enabled, simply go to the developer options and Tick "OEM Unlocking" and "USB Debugging".

Notes for Old phones: Some users reported there is a message called "custom binary blocked by FRP." So, After flashing the magisk tar, you have to reset your device (mentioned in notes above), so after your device booted, you must connect to the internet and setup the phone normally. then take a look at the "oem unlocking" toggle in developer options, if it is disabled, you must enable it again. else brick 🧱
