Currently, I'm running MSM Xtended. Unfortunately, I'm unable to root my device. I have tried following the instructions in the MSM thread on how to obtain root, but the command isn't recognized in fastboot. I assume it's because I flashed the latest version of the global rom before flashing MSM. I'm guessing the latest global version upgraded my BL to a version that doesn't support "fastboot boot". Is there another way to go about this without having to wipe my phone and flashing a different global version? Any help is appreciated!

Dont mean to treat you noobish here, but is the bootloader unlocked? I have never heard of fastboot "boot" not being available.. Are you in the bootloader when trying to run this? Does fastboot devices show anything. I'm still newish to the whole fastbootd thing (fastboot reboot fastboot) but when I am running fastboot boot I do it from the bootloader, not fastbootd.

Apologies for the late response, so I'm a dummy that likes to skim. I figured it out after work. Fastbootd does not support "fastboot boot", but regular fastboot does.

@jerryhou85 Sorry to bother, but please close this thread as the issue was resolved.
