Just picked the phone up, instantly unlocked the bootloader, flashed patched boot.img Magisk gave and root has been achieved.

Now to enjoy this beast as it should be enjoyed. Sure, the camera broke but screw the camera!

Hello my friend, excuse me. How do you get the boot.img file to Modify with Magisk manager? thank you very much!!

You get it from kernel.sin which can be found in the firmware. You can use rar to open it and extract kernel.sin.
I used a little tool called unsin.exe that converts the kernel.sin to kernel.img and you simply rename it to boot.img.

You put boot.img on your phone, load up Magisk, press install, press patch boot image.
It will put patched_boot.img in your downloads folder which you put on your pc and simply flash patched_boot.img via adb.

When you've done that, boot the phone and you have root.

thank youuuu so mach man. You're the best !!! I found the tool here, in xda (many thanks to Igor Eisberg). Your explanation has been clear and very useful to me. The file that I extracted from the firmware is "kernel_X-FLASH-ALL-B6B5.sin". And it worked !!!
Do not use your phone's camera? Sorry my bad english !!!

If the original posters are still around - what exactly do you mean by the camera isn't working? You aren't getting any photos at all?

I followed this but after converted the B6B5.bin into boot.img and flashed it, I got stuck with "your device is corrupted" and couldn't boot into recovery or anything. I'm on H8166 Dual Sim. Not sure if that makes a difference
