[naw3r]

Has anyone gotten the boom j8 rooted as all other root methods are not working.

I have managed to install philiz recovery v6 via adb and boot to recovery, tried to root rom using kitchen i ended up with status 0 error, now stuck at stauts 6 error. could you cook up a stock j8 rom using the kitchen, would be great or any alternate way to root
