Who doesn’t want to get the most of his Android device..?! Getting the superuser access through the root and to be able to control various aspects like clock, access to cache etc. are few of the various possibilities that we can explore. When we mention root access, this means we need to perform a certain modification that will root our phone and we will have access to the root directory of our device. In this post, we will show you how to root Lenovo A5.

Lenovo A5 features a 5.45-inches display with a screen resolution of 720 x 1440 pixels. The smartphone is powered by Mediatek MT6739 processor coupled with 3GB of RAM. The phone packs 16/32GB internal memory which can also be expanded upto 256GB via microSD card. The camera on the Lenovo A5 comes with 13MP with LED flash rear camera and 8MP front shooting camera for selfies. The handset came out of the box with Android 8.0 Oreo and backed by a Non-removable Li-Ion 4000 mAh battery. It also has Fingerprint sensor on the back.

We will use the Magisk by patching the stock boot image and flash that to your boot partition. All you need to do is download the patched image file from Magisk Manager and flash it.

Mostly uninitiated people compare rooting with hacking which is not correct. The purpose in both contexts is quite different. Hacking is more like breaking into someone’s else system illegally, whereas rooting is mostly done by the owner of an Android device to gain superuser advantages of the device.
