[Moto G7 Play Questions & Answers] jaladhjin:
I was successful in unlocking the bootloader I'm happy to report.

If I get you that info from getvar would you advise on getting root & ideally custom recovery if they exist for my model & channel?

Root is all I'm really after but if I could get TWRP too I'd be really happy.

So I got the bootloader unlocked already all set there.

I see you were right about that "channel" variant.

Is there a root/TWRP method for my variant you'd advise ?
