[GUIDE] How to root Android Pie build (Temporarily Guide)

Since TWRP is unbootable under this build, you have to use patched boot trick to root this phone.
However, only Magisk 17.1 is usable on this build, Magisk 17.2 - 18.0 can't be installed properly.

So I made a custom update channel that fixed to Magisk 17.1 to assist me.

This guide requires unlocked bootloader - still, I won't introduce how to unlock it here, please Google for it.

Here's how to root:

1. Extract the D1C-0-6120-00CN-boot.img from my homebrew firmware written in previous guide, or extract the boot.img from the OTA package.
(Later versions will also provide the patched boot image)

2. Copy this boot.img to Download directory.

3. Install latest Magisk Manager from https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases
Remember to allow all the permission after installed.

4. Choose "Left Hamburger Menu" - "Settings" - "Update Channel" - "Custom", and type following URL:

Code:
https://dwz.cn/5I3anBD4

5. Back to Magisk Manager main interface, refresh it and check if latest version changed to 17.1.
Tap "Install" - "Install" - "Patch Boot Image", "Left Hamburger Menu" - "Download" - the boot img you copied.
And wait for the patching procedure complete.

6. Copy patched_boot.img from the Download directory of internal storage to PC.

7. Reboot your phone to fastboot mode and execute following commands:

Code:
.\fastboot reboot-bootloader
.\fastboot boot D:\patched_boot.img

8. Open Magisk Manager, reinstall Magisk 17.1 directly.

9. Reboot your phone and all done.

Is this procedure familiar? Yes, it's the same method used on Nokia 7 Plus. But I wrote this guide to tell you few details that you need to notice.

Hope TWRP can be compiled for D1C-6120.

If you have already unlocked the bootloader then just flash the official TWRP for Nokia 6 and flash the Magisk v17.1 or 17.3 via TWRP normally. And TWRP 3.2.3.0 works well on Android P. I tested it and it works fine.

@hikari_calyx Does fastboot boot work for you on pie? For me, it does not. Almost shat my pants thinking my TWRP doesn't work but it does in fact work, just fastboot booting it does not work.

Finally got the official pie update on my TA-1033. (unlocked bootloader)

The standard versions of TWRP 3.2.3.0 / Magisk 17.3 / Magisk Manager 6.0.1 worked perfectly.

As above, "fastboot boot" doesn't work, but "fastboot flash" etc. does.

Happy days. ;)

You gave wrong code for booting patched boot.img

It should be as
FASTBOOT FLASH BOOT PATCED_BOOT.IMG

It will permanently root the android pie
You gave the FASTBOOT code only for booting

You can use the same procedure as hilarious calyx have said in the post
But the FASTBOOT command should be as
FASTBOOT flash boot patched_boot.img
It will permanently root your android
Magisk 17.1 is working
Or you can also flash official twrp available at twrp website and from there you can directly flash magisk 17.1 zip

Yes but twrp is not booting on my pie build because it is showing "failed to find device for partition system" and i am unable to apply update through sd card or through adb i don't know why so i am thinking to follow this steps hope it will work.

Why any module is not installing by magisk it's showing me unable to extract, i followed each and every steps as mentioned above and rooted my Nokia 6 again but it's not installing any module what's the reason behind it?

    If you have already unlocked the bootloader then just flash the official TWRP for Nokia 6 and flash the Magisk v17.1 or 17.3 via TWRP normally. And TWRP 3.2.3.0 works well on Android P. I tested it and it works fine.
