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 Camon C9?
There are two main steps:
1. Unlocking the Bootloader of the Tecno Camon C9
2. Flashing the Hovatek CWM recovery.img and SuperSU.zip
Download SuperSU 2.66.zip at
