Lenovo K5 Note A7020a48 will get root soon !!

Mate, sorry to disappoint you, but at the moment, rooting from Lollipop is the only way to obtain root.

To obtain root on Marshmallow, we need someone who knows how to reverse engineer and patch kernel files. So, unless you can do that (the people in this thread, including me, have tried without success), there is no way to root the device on Android 6.0 right now.
Hello Devlopers,
I am working on creating TWRP for Lenovo K5 Note A7020a48.
So be patient because i have less than an hour everyday to work on this. I got the Stock recovery and i am modifying it and trying to fix the bugs in it.
Sorry but i can't say till when development process will continue. May be within next week or next month i will upload it.
Thank you !!:good:

After more than a year of wait for Root on this device, happy to share that i exchanged this and got a Redmi Note 4 through Flipkart.
No more coming back to this forum.
A wonderful device from the worst manufacturer.

Thanks for all the good hearts that tried to get the Root.

Can't we create a New Preloader for it. Its the only way we can ger rid of Image File check and Install Custom Recovery.


rocketboards.org/foswiki/Documentation/GSRD131Preloader
Just add http before it bcoz i can't post link thats why.

Please anyone get through this guide and tell me if it's helpful or not.
