    So I have a pocophone and I downloaded the gcam APK and a great preset for gcam settings… then I got NOVA launcher Prime for 5 bucks. After doing these things, I am having a hard time seeing the reason to root the phone. Am I missing anything or is the process in this video overkill?

    Does anyone know if the unlocking of this phone with the links provided actually allow T-Mobile bands to work on the Poco? Rather not waste time and money just to see it not get LTE.

    nice, but you should warn Ryzen users the mi-unlock tool doesn't work with their computers. A link to a detailed guide on the forum would have been great, also.

    I followed the instructions carefully and keep getting "android.process.acore" popping multiple times a second. I cleared the cache but still same issue.

    You should have also given warning that flashing a new rom means flashing custom recovery software; you will (NOT MAY) void any warranty from any company that you bought this phone from. You also would have to use a rooted app to restore the original rom, and relock the bootloader, and set the bit that detects if the firmware has been tampered with…and it's not a sure thing either.

    Hey Linus , thanks for the guide I changed my ROM to Lineage OS but the link you gave for Disable Force encryption treble is not working for Magisk v18 . I rooted using V17 but Magisk manager asks updates every time , any solution for that.
