Pre-Requirements

• Your phone should have battery juice more than 60% at least.
• Keep a backup of your device data at first. Therefore, if anything goes wrong, you can get back the important data.

1. How to Extract and Patch Boot.image using Magisk?

• First of all, download and extract the ROM to your PC.
• Attach your device via USB cable and copy only the boot.img file from the extracted folder to your device storage
• Launch Magisk Manager. When a popup appears asking to install Magisk, select INSTALL and choose install again.
• Tap on “Patch Boot Image File”.
  

  

• Navigate to internal storage and select your phone’s boot image that you transferred earlier.
• Wait for a couple of seconds. Magisk will start patching the boot image.
• Once the boot image has been patched, copy the “patched_boot.img” from the internal storage and replace it in the same extracted ROM folder on your PC.

Now you can follow the second step to flash the patched boot image file.
