Fastboot flashable devices
BASIC INSTRUCTIONS
All downloads contain .img files bootable through Fastboot.
Make sure your device is in Fastboot mode (usually you can get there by holding VolUp+VolDown+Power when the device is turned off), then run the included script for your OS. On Linux and Mac, you may have to chmod +x root-linux/mac.sh before the script does anything.
A special boot image will load, which will install (only) SuperSU, thenreboot into Android.
UNLOCK BOOTLOADERS
The included scripts perform an "OEM unlock". If this fails, the root will not work. If it succeeds, and you were not previously unlocked (first time rooting ?), it will probably wipe your data !
