Quoted from Chainfire:
To be able to make CF-Auto-Root for a device:
- The device needs to have (and use) separate kernel and recovery partitions
- The kernel and recovery format must be the boot.img standard (no zImage support)
- I need the recovery.img file, so post it in this thread if you need support for a new device
I wanted to request root for my device so I got myself ADB and tried to extract the required file for making the root.
But I realised to do that I need root access which my phone doesnt have.
So how do I even get the recovery.img and boot.img without root?
i cant request root without those files.
It's like getting a scissor out of its package which requires a scissor to cut open...
Help would be much appreciated.
