Anyone have an idea if this phone can be rooted?

Rootable?
- Thread starter quailallstar
- Start date
I'm also interested in this. It is a Android One phone but this does not seem to imply being unlockable?
I've contact Nokia support a few days ago to ask if the official bootloader unlock will also be available for the 7.1. They replied (quite quickly) that they could not confirm an unlock will be available, only for 8 now, but that news about this would be coming soon.

I hope it is seeing how I'm planning on picking 2 of these up. I could see them not allowing it officially since the 8 is their flagship phone. I know HTC used to allow almost all of their phones to be unlocked. LG only allows their flagship devices to be unlocked, the V and G series. I so hope this isn't the case with Nokia.
EDIT: Spelling, sorry

Looks like a generic guide, highly unlikely that it will work. The other method listed there needs an unlocked bootloader which isn't officially possible (yet?) and twrp.
