How to root Tecno Camon C9 100%


The Tecno Camon C9 is yet another addition to Tecno’s collection of smartphones. This phone runs on Android 6.0 (Marshmallow) making it still unsupported by our favorite one-click root apks (at the moment). By popular demand, Team Hovatek has come out with this rooting guide for Tecno C9 users.

How can I root my Tecno Camon C9?

There are two main steps:
  1. Unlocking the Bootloader of the Tecno Camon C9
  2. Flashing the Hovatek TWRP recovery.img and SuperSU.zip
  • Download TWRP for Tecno Camon C9 ported by Team Hovatek  HERE

  • When the phone enters Fastboot, load the TWRP recovery to the phone by typing the command below then pressing Enter
