I need assistance in rooting my Leagoo T5. MT6750 chipset, Android 7.0. Leagoo's Build Number is LEAGOO_T5_OS2.1_E_20170714. The supplied ROM is riddled with malware and popups. I want to Root, get a boot loader installed, and compile LineageOS or AOSPA myself for the device.

So far I've been able to extract the recovery and boot images. I've been able to get the fstab (called fstab.mt6755) from the boot image without issue.

It has been some time since I have root'd and ROM'd a phone myself - back then you edited default.prop for a single line change.

With that in mind, what's next for me to get root on this device?

Try this Philz @ https://mega.nz/#!VeB02CAK!_ukAaYGrdDhYb...IcJsP2GSbU
Follow the rooting guide @ https://www.hovatek.com/forum/thread-18938.html but use your Philz
Upload a screenshot of root confirmation using root checker @ https://play.google.com/store/apps/detai...heck&hl=en

Thanks!

I am able to boot into Philz and sideload SuperSU. When the bootloader is relocked using fastboot oem lock, the root is lost. I guess this is expected.

In relation to compiling a form of Android myself, are there any existing MTK6750 ports that I can copy?
