How to Root Lyf Phones Without PC

Reliance Jio’s 4G enabled Lyf smartphones have been creating a buzz in the Indian markets. The devices are selling for mere INR 5,000 ($73) with 3 months of unlimited 4G data + unlimited voice calls. So much free stuff that the device’ already cheap cost is nothing to consider.

Most importantly, Lyf smartphones feature near stock Android, so they are friendly when it comes to getting root access on LYF devices. And we mean all Lyf smartphones:

  • Lyf Earth
  • Lyf Wind
  • Lyf Water
  • Lyf Flame

Generally, we recommend you to root a bootloader unlocked Android device by flashing SuperSU zip from TWRP recovery, but since Lyf phones haven’t received any TWRP recovery build yet (not even unofficial ones), only method to root LYF phones is through the Kingroot app.

To get started, grab the Kingroot apk from the download links below and follow the instructions to root Lyf Android phones.
