The phone reboots after nothing... I decided to use Bryanthuku's method and after you install Magisk Manager you will have root

OK Then .
By The Way, hope you used fastboot flash and not fastboot boot command
Just wan't to be sure we have a working custom recovery for those who will still request it after root

Maybe this recovery @ https://mega.nz/#!Bih3SBpK!6dLZNAWrHYS0u...8fLy0nkMVU I got from the attachment is the Marshmallow recovery.img , not Nougat . That would explain some things

Highly unlikely 
i updated system to android 7
rooted
backed up recovery.img and then sent it

or maybe other owners who have rooted to send their backed up of recovery.img

(11-08-2017, 02:31 PM)Bryanthuku It boots but touch is not responsive
stuck at read only or allow system modifications

Try this Philz @ https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B4S-Z72...hqa2c/view

Seems like the Philz is no longer available ,, Can you upload it again or do you have new TWRP to root the device ??
Just today i got a new OTA update and i want to install it ,, but am afraid i'll need a custom recovery to root it afterwards ,, cuz the Mod boot img i used on the v72 update might not work ...

This PhilZ recovery works ,, However it overwrites the Stock recovery unlike the TWRP on The MM update which doesn't Smile ...

Relax
I'm testing my try
It's not ideal with twrp or anything
But I have got root

Which custom recovery did you use cos we're trying to port one but haven't yet received the Nougat stock recovery.img

Well, Its kind of a Process.

I downgraded back to Android 6.0 A9-...............V108(Stock-Rom) - {Through Fastboot Because my phone cant be discovered in sp flash tool (unrelated error)}
installed ota updates upto Android 6.0 A9-...............V124 - (Last update before Nougat)
Opened (Nougat) Update.zip in PC , extracted and edited its updater-script and compressed it back into the zip file.
Then copied it to exSD-card

Boot into Twrp for android 6.0 Through bootloader
Backed up Boot.img "....V124"
flashed update.zip{with edited updater_script}


(This Patches boot.img.p for nougat into current boot.img for "....V124")

Made a backup immediately  after patch to get - Android 7.0 Stock Boot.img
Then installed Magisk v13.3 zip file.
Made a backup after magisk installed to get     - Modified/rooted Android 7.0 boot.img
Then Restored Boot.img "......V124" 

All in bold was done without rebooting
 
Since there were definitely going to be errors because of patching android 7 boot.img into an android 6 rom...
Reboot back to bootloader and fastboot the "....V108" -Stock rom

I then updated stock rom up to android 7.0 {Official way}
After Nougat boots successfully I turned it off.
got into bootloader and flashed the modified nougat boot.emmc.win (Twrp backup)- changed it to (.img) first
Hence rooted.
To revert back to stock boot.img get into bootloader and flash the stock nougat boot.Img (twrp backup) 

Image of magisk installed,  root Success and

Android 7 Stock Recovery.img also in attachments.

All Through android 6 updates i only factory reset through twrp for android 6 after downgrading so as to keep my data (internal storage safe)



users already running nougat can simply reboot into bootloader (if unlocked) and type
fastboot flash boot bootN1Mod.img-to root
or
fastboot flash boot bootN1Stock.img- to unroot
(using adb and fastboot devices )

It worked on my phone but it is to be tried at the Owner's Own Risk.

Sorry to disturb ,, but how did you downgrade using Fastboot ,, i tried sideload command but it doesnt work and how can i backup my Stock Boot.img and Stock Recovery.img files (Miracle Box refuse to detect the device (i used it on Win10) ),, it seems theres a new update ,, the Philz recovery for Nougat works ,, but it seems it replaces the Stock recovery and i guess you cant back it up thru philz since its overwritten already ... 

Also check the Stock Boot Img file ,, i flashed it ,, but the device stucked at Tecno Logo and wont boot pasd that ,, but when i reflash the Mod boot img it boots without any issue (i dunno why ) ...
I want to install the new OTA update and  i want to make sure i have a good backup plan ,, Thanks ... Smile
