What error are you getting?
It won’t root my phone, when I use root checker it says that it’s not rooted.
Hi, after rooting your device, download and install “Super User” or “SuperSU” from Google Play Store. Without Superuser or SuperSu, root checker will report that you’re not rooted. If it doesn’t work, root it manually using ADB. That’s it.
