    Oh… You linked graphene os saying it has a 30 min tutorial how to root your device?

    I tried magisk and patching the bootloader but doesn’t seem like anything happened after I used fastboot to load it on my device. When I figure it out I’ll do a write up because it shouldn’t be this difficult in 2025 I’d think, but maybe I’m just slow

      Yeah thats my bad, I read the whole thread wrong. What I ment was, I unlocked the boot loader, installed a different OS and then was able to relock the boot loader. Sorry for the confusion, thats my fualt, I should learn to better lol

        All good! I tried using Magisk to change the boot.img for Lineage OS and it seemingly worked (phone still boots) but doesn’t seem like root was enabled or maybe I’m missing something. It’s just one edge case, but kind of important. Figured too many pin attempts to wipe device should be a feature I want on my Lineage devices
