How to root the Galaxy Note 9

Do you own a Samsung Galaxy Note 9? An extremely simple new method exists if you want to root it, whether to personalize your smartphone to the extreme or to install an alternative ROM like LineageOS, Paranoid Android or AOKP. The method we present to you in this quick tutorial is based on TWRP and Magisk. 

There are millions of valid reasons to root your smartphone. The operation gives the user root rights (the highest user privileges) within the Android system, which allows all restrictions imposed by the manufacturer to be lifted. If you came across this tutorial a bit by chance and you do not understand what root is, we recently published a detailed file . First of all, for our method to work, you must have TWRP installed on your Note 9 . We explain how to do it a little further down.

Warning : the root of your smartphone is not without risks , and erases all the data it contains. It can make your smartphone completely unusable. We recommend that you back up all your data before starting and be careful. It is also recommended that you back up the manufacturer ROM you are using with TWRP so that you can restore it if something goes wrong. In addition, on Samsung smartphones, rooting your smartphone once changes the Knox counter, which voids the warranty and prevents you from using certain Samsung applications. SUMMARY
