So how will this entire process be carried out? First off, we will download the stock firmware of your device and get the recovery.img file. This will then be patched via the Magisk App, giving us the magisk_patched.img file. Finally, this patched file will be flashed to the recovery partition and your device stands rooted. Follow along for the detailed instructions.<\/p>\n<p>In one of my articles: <a href=\"https:\/\/droidwin.com\/root-android-devices-without-twrp-recovery\/\">How to Root Android device without TWRP Recovery<\/a>, the first prerequisite is that your device needs to have Ramdisk. If that is not the case, then you wouldn&#8217;t be able to <a href=\"https:\/\/droidwin.com\/patch-stock-boot-image-flash-magisk\/\">patch the stock boot.img file and then flash it to the boot partition<\/a>. And this is exactly what happened with one of our readers- his device didn&#8217;t come with a boot ramdisk.<\/p>\n<p>So he asked for an alternate route (apart from flashing the Magisk app via TWRP, since there was no custom recovery for his device). Turned out, there exists another method to root a device that doesn&#8217;t have Ramdisk. And this guide is going to focus on this set of devices only. So without further ado, here are the steps to install Magisk in the recovery partition and then root your Android device.<\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_62 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-custom ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<label for=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-6637830f69ee8\" class=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-label\"><span class=\"ez-toc-cssicon\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #232323;color:#232323\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #232323;color:#232323\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/label><input type=\"checkbox\"  id=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-6637830f69ee8\"  aria-label=\"Toggle\" \/><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/droidwin.com\/install-magisk-in-recovery-root-android\/#How_to_Install_Magisk_in_Recovery_and_Root_Android_No_Ramdisk\" title=\"How to Install Magisk in Recovery and Root Android [No Ramdisk]\">How to Install Magisk in Recovery and Root Android [No Ramdisk]<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/droidwin.com\/install-magisk-in-recovery-root-android\/#STEP_1_Enable_USB_Debugging_and_OEM_Unlocking\" title=\"STEP 1: Enable USB Debugging and OEM Unlocking\">STEP 1: Enable USB Debugging and OEM Unlocking<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/droidwin.com\/install-magisk-in-recovery-root-android\/#STEP_2_Instal_Android_SDK\" title=\"STEP 2: Instal Android SDK\">STEP 2: Instal Android SDK<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/droidwin.com\/install-magisk-in-recovery-root-android\/#STEP_3_Unlock_Bootloader\" title=\"STEP 3: Unlock Bootloader\">STEP 3: Unlock Bootloader<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/droidwin.com\/install-magisk-in-recovery-root-android\/#STEP_4_Extract_recoveryimg_from_Stock_Firmware\" title=\"STEP 4: Extract recovery.img from Stock Firmware\">STEP 4: Extract recovery.img from Stock Firmware<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/droidwin.com\/install-magisk-in-recovery-root-android\/#STEP_5_Install_Magisk_App_Check_for_Ramdisk\" title=\"STEP 5: Install Magisk App | Check for Ramdisk\">STEP 5: Install Magisk App | Check for Ramdisk<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-7\" href=\"https:\/\/droidwin.com\/install-magisk-in-recovery-root-android\/#STEP_6_Patch_recoveryimg_via_Magisk\" title=\"STEP 6: Patch recovery.img via Magisk\">STEP 6: Patch recovery.img via Magisk<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-8\" href=\"https:\/\/droidwin.com\/install-magisk-in-recovery-root-android\/#STEP_7_Boot_Device_to_Fastboot_Mode\" title=\"STEP 7: Boot Device to Fastboot Mode\">STEP 7: Boot Device to Fastboot Mode<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-9\" href=\"https:\/\/droidwin.com\/install-magisk-in-recovery-root-android\/#STEP_8_Flash_Magisk_Patched_recoveryimg_via_Fastboot_Root_Android\" title=\"STEP 8: Flash Magisk Patched recovery.img via Fastboot | Root Android\">STEP 8: Flash Magisk Patched recovery.img via Fastboot | Root Android<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_Install_Magisk_in_Recovery_and_Root_Android_No_Ramdisk\"><\/span>How to Install Magisk in Recovery and Root Android [No Ramdisk]<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Well, you all might be aware of the benefits of rooting a device (installing Magisk Modules, Xposed Framework, Substratum Themes).

Most of the OEMs upload the firmware file over to their official site itself. In the case of Samsung, you could use a standalone tool such as <a href=\"https:\/\/droidwin.com\/download-samsung-stock-firmware-frija\/\">Frija to download the firmware.\u00a0<\/a>Once you have downloaded the firmware, extract it to any convenient location on your PC.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5575\" src=\"https:\/\/droidwin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/extract-recovery.img-from-payload.bin-Install-Magisk-in-Recovery.jpg\" alt=\"extract recovery.img from payload.bin Install Magisk in Recovery\" width=\"1000\" height=\"358\" srcset=\"https:\/\/droidwin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/extract-recovery.img-from-payload.bin-Install-Magisk-in-Recovery.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/droidwin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/extract-recovery.img-from-payload.bin-Install-Magisk-in-Recovery-300x107.jpg 300w, https:\/\/droidwin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/extract-recovery.img-from-payload.bin-Install-Magisk-in-Recovery-768x275.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In the case of Pixel, the firmware files are present as ZIP, so you could easily extract them via WinRAR. However, things aren&#8217;t so easy for other OEMs. For example, OnePlus have their partition files in payload.bin. On the other hand, Oppo and Vivo pack it under OZIP format. Likewise, devices with Spreasdtrum and Unisoc chipsets have their firmware as a PAC file.
