[Android General] KitK4t:
Hi guys,

On this post I will share with you a method to root Wiko Jerry.

You will get a TWRP recovery installed too.

Sorry if my english is a bit bad :o

Sorry if the print screens if you find are in Portuguese, as it would be boring to change my Windows language.

If you don't feel safe modifying your device DO NOT do anything.

Backup the data you have on your phone. Accidents can happen.

That said, let's go to the fun!

What you need:

Your Wiko Jerry

This TWRP 3.1.1 recovery: https://mega.nz/#!rZM2XIhY!tuneB9pGNQzhbGWz1kRY-mzeCGtRjUAP2QqX791r4Go

ADB / Fastboot on your computer. I will explain how to set it up on your PC later.

Magisk flashable ZIP. Magisk thread: https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445

Connect your phone to your PC with your USB cable.

1- Preparing your PC:

If you already have ADB on your PC, you can skip this part.

After downloaded the files you need, let's get your computer ready.

You will need fastboot and ADB for this method, so download from here:

Installing ADB on Windows:

Open this link and click on SDK Platform-tools for Windows.

After downloaded, extract the ZIP anywhere you want.

You should now have a folder like this:

Keep the folder open (or just minimize it) and go ahead to the next step.

Installing ADB on Linux:

Run one of this commands on your terminal.

-Ubuntu/Debian based Linuxes (APT):

sudo apt install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot

-Fedora (YUM):

sudo yum install android-tools

Test with:

sudo adb version

You should get something like this:

Android Debug Bridge version 1.0.40
Version 4986621

2- Getting your phone ready:

To get your phone ready you need to enable ADB on Settings.

Open Settings>About phone and tap "Buid number" 7 times.

Go back one time and you sholud get a "Developer options" menu on Settings.

Open the "Developer options" and enable "USB debugging" option.

Now you have ADB enabled on your device.

3- Installing TWRP on your phone

Do you remember the TWRP file you downloaded before? Now you will need it.

-Copy the TWRP_3.1_JERRY.img file to your platform-tools folder.

-Rename the file to recovery.img.

-Open a command prompt.

-On command prompt do this to open your platform-tools folder on it:

cd INSERT PATH TO YOUR platform-tools FOLDER

Now, unlock your phone and run this command:

adb devices

It should appear something like this on your PC:

List of devices attached
<your-device-id> offline

And this on your phone:

On that window, check the box and tap OK. This will allow your phone to communicate with ADB running on your PC.

Check if everything is ok doing the "adb devices" command again. If it is ok, this will show up:

List of devices attached
<your-device-id> device

Now, on your command line run the command:

adb reboot-bootloader

Your phone will reboot in fastboot mode. It should look like this:

Run this on your command line:

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

If you get <waiting-for-device> on command prompt, check this:

-Open Device Manager (Win key+X, click on Device Manager)

-Find a device called "fastboot Gadget" or similar name with a exclamation mark.

-Right click it and click on "Update drivers..."

-Click on second option on the setup (search manually)

-Click on the second option again.

-On the list, look for Universal Serial Bus Devices and double click it

-Inside the Manufacturer list select WinUsb Device

-On the right list select ADB Device and double click it

-Click on yes

-After installed, close and its fixed!

​

When the command finishes, you should get this:

Sending 'recovery' (12866 KB) OKAY [ 0.550s]
Writing 'recovery' OKAY [ 0.762s]
Finished. Total time: 1.317s

Congratulations! Now you have TWRP on your phone!

4- Booting into TWRP and root the phone with Magisk

Now you need to turn off your phone. You can just take the battery out and put it again.

This phone has a weird way to boot into the recovery. You need to press the power button and a second later, the VOL+ button.

The Wiko logo will appear and the phone MUST NOT VIBRATE. If it vibrates, the normal Android will start.

Do this procedure anytime you want to go into TWRP.

Connect your USB cable.

Tap "Keep Read Only"

In your PC, go to This PC and open the JERRY device.

Copy the previously downloaded Magisk ZIP file into the Internal Storage.

In TWRP, tap Install

Search for the Magisk ZIP in the file explorer.

Swipe to confirm the flash

Tap Home button

Tap Reboot

Tap System

Android should boot normally

Warning: It could take a few seconds to Magisk Manager to appear on apps list.

Congratulations! You have done it! You have TWRP and Magisk!
