Then there’s also a possibility to gain system-level access and administrative privileges by gaining access to the system partition. And this is what we help you achieve. In this guide, we will show you the detailed steps to root your Nubia Red Magic 3/3S device via Magisk patched boot.img file. Follow along.
Benefits and Risks of Rooting Nubia Red Magic 3/3S
Once you root your device by flashing the Magisk patched boot.img via Fastboot Commands, you will be in a position to try out a plethora of customizations on your device. These include the likes of flashing custom ROMs, installing a custom recovery like TWRP, or flashing a custom kernel. Along the same lines, you could also flash Magisk Modules, Xposed Framework, Substratum Themes, Viper4Android, and the likes. However, this is just one side of the story.
Carrying out this process also has its downsides. First off, the process requires an unlocked bootloader. Doing so will wipe off all the data and could nullify the device’s warranty as well. Likewise, WideVine L1 will be degraded to L3, resulting in the inability to stream Netflix in HD [FIXED]. Then the SafetyNet will be triggered, which might cause issues with banking apps [FIXED]. So if all that’s well and good, then let’s get started with the steps to root the Nubia Red Magic 3/3S devices via Magisk.
