Root question.

[plprplpr]

I unlocked my bootloader and tried using my pc to root but something is wrong with drivers or adb or something and at this point im giving up on that. So my question is could i just use kingroot then install flashify then install twrp then install magisk? Or am i crazy and this is impossible?

Thanks for your time.

I, and everyone else on this forum, will not recommend using Kingroot.
You're better off trying to fix your current problem. As a matter of fact, somebody said OnePlus provided fastboot drivers with the phone. They should be somewhere on the driver partition which pop-up when your phone is plugged into the PC.

I second this

I don't think King Root works on this phone but even if it does I would stay away from it. King Root is as close to malware as any program I have ever seen people willingly install. There's a step by step guide for rooting and flashing on the OP5. The OP of that thread is really good about answering questions when people run into problems. If you post what is going wrong for you in that thread I'm sure he will be able to help you.
