It might be much simpler, but I haven’t figured out how to do it yet.
I tried rooting the boot.img image via Magisk and installing it using utilities and RkDevTool. Simple methods of obtaining root rights using applications such as KingoRoot, of course, do not work.
I checked for root rights using RootChecker.
What do I need to do to root? I have the original firmware files.
Hi @technicalMi ,
Can you provide the firmware version? Is it our official version or you build it yourself.
I took the working firmware from here:
dl.khadas.com - Index of /products/edge1/firmware/android/.
Tried everything.
I also followed these instructions to build the firmware myself:
Edge1 Android [Khadas Docs].
Hi @technicalMi
You may refer to the patch here. I hope it can help you.
Thanks for sharing the patch! But a problem arose. I modified the file “device/rockchip/common/BoardConfig.mk”: added “BOARD_ALLOW_ROOTSERVICE ?=true” according to the instructions. However during the image build process an error occurs:
[65% 349/529] including system/extras/Android.mk ...FAILED:
build/make/core/base_rules.mk:325: error: system/extras/su: MODULE.TARGET.EXECUTABLES.su already defined by device/rockchip/common/rootservice.16:01:19 ckati failed with: exit status 1

In “device/rockchip/common/rootservice/Android.mk” it is written:

endif
In “build/make/core/base_rules.mk” it is written in line No. 325:
$(error $(LOCAL_PATH): $(module_id) already defined by $($(module_id)))
What could be the problem?
Hi @technicalMi ，
Have you applied all the patches? Delete the out directory and recompile.
