Hello, I was wondering about how to root my tablet, it is a 10.1" onn surf walmart tablet, I wanted to root it, but all the guides I could find are either outdated, or the wrong model (or both!) and I’m kinda at my wits end.I have OEM unlocking and usb debugging, so i can root it i believe.

I wonder if there is any software or app that can dump the ROM file? because I can’t seem to find any archive of the model, and like i said, the ones people talk about are the wrong type and i don’t wanna risk breaking anything.

thank you.

    What Android version do you have? Nowadays Magisk is used to root devices. There’s a guide on how to install it on the GitHub I linked. Before you can install that you need a custom recovery like TWRP tho. Keep in mind installing a custom recovery requires you to completely wipe the device and install a new rom, so you’ll probably have to use a custom rom like LineageOS and you’ll need to backup important files. Also, the files you need to install for TWRP and LineageOS are specific to devices, so you’ll need to look on their respective websites (I linked both) if your tablet is supported.
