Not stock root. Needs an unlocked bootloader and a custom ROM.

How-to

How to

Unlock the bootloader (fastboot flashing unlock / vendor unlock) and install a custom OS (LineageOS; CalyxOS in the past).

Follow the specialist sources linked on this page. If this path is a jailbreak, unlock, or flash, the specialist wiki is the how-to — we do not copy those steps here.

Notes

Some TWRP and postmarketOS builds for this device are based on LineageOS device trees.

pmOS uses independent kernel (mainline).

Install with fastboot.

CalyxOS support is historical; LineageOS is the live route.
