Is there a simple way to root my phone?
| And by the way, I'd probably want to degoogle it, so I'd like to install something like Lineage OS
| What's the model, OP? I can check real quick and assess how likely you're to mess up. I'm familiar with Moto in general.
| Try placing your phone in a bag of rice.
| Just check if there is a page for your phone on lineages wiki and follow that
| Motorola phones have bootloaders locked and it's a pain to unlock it. There isn't a simple way. Also, sometimes unlocking it will remove all data, so yeah...
| Unlocking bootloder will ALWAYS remove all data. It's a security feature
| not to mention they want to flash it which would wipe data regardless
| Consider using an original data cable, my old samsung wouldnt flash without it.
| Some Motorolas can have their bootloaders unlocked with a OEM code but they want your Motorola account and your serial number. It still wipes all your data and it voids your warranty anyway (If you still have one)
