Finally....
I can fully enjoy my C8..
Now I can minimise and resume up to 7 app, unlike before where 2 was an issue..

I am using Ram manager pro 7.2.0
More multitasking option tick set on boot reboot C8..

People complaining about tutorial on how to root
Most of us encounter different issue..
So our procedures might be different...

Here is my step
1. Download sp flash tool it's a zip file unzip it in a folder abt 50mb

2. Download Twrp for canon C8 its a zip also.. Unzip it abt 6mb

3. Download super user the one in zip. Put in on your SD card..4.69mb

The files u need is not up to 70MB

You can get all these file by Google..

Then Google how to install mtk vcom driver manually.. YouTube I actually downloaded it..
Even the mtk vcom driver is less than 10 MB

Now run sp flash tool as administrator...
Load the scatter file which is in the Twrp folder u already unzipped..
In that same twrp folder there is recovery image..
So only recovery will be ticked in the option listed
Click on download..at the top stop is next to it..


Then connect C8 turned off..with the USB..to your PC.. I used a windows Tab actually.. With OTG..
So I had some issue with connect port which I solve by clicking options on the sp flash tool...go to connection.. I changed to usb..

Once u connect Under 1 minutes you will see a successful notification..
You can disconnect your phone...

Now You can press and hold Vol+ with power button.. To boot into twrp recovery ..
You need to be a techie to work on this...May be I used a different TWRP
Try to navigate to where you will see install.. Then change storage to where you downloaded the superuser in zip
Click on it
There are two options to tick
Then continue.
Once its successful...
Navigate to reboot
Mine hanged I press and hold power button then I press power button to on normally..

The moment I saw Superuser installed..
I did not bother to download any root check
Straight to my ifont
And I download RAM manager pro 7.2.0
More multitasking
Then reboot...

No more story....
C8 Rocks, I think It was optimized for more free ram by default..

I tried hard multitasking it hanges so I went back to more multitasking...

My candy crush now resumes..
The phone is 1 GB RAM yes..
We all saw the specifications beforehand..
I'm now experiencing what I expected from a 1GB RAM phone

Tecno una no try at all.. U cannot fix common RAM manager by a simple update...
Anyways I ve learnt alot
Now I can get marshmallow update.. I'm in charge of my C8.. Since I lost my warranty already..

is ur watsapp running well?... av rooted mine but its still d same! I only get messages when I open d app.

tunnamania11:

You only need that before rooting. Since u have successfully rooted without bricking it, don't think u need backup again .

you need to back up ooo in case of any brick... Anything can happen... Even after rooting my c8 I mistakenly bricked it.... Thanks to a friend that lend me his own c8 which I use to restore mine

AwesomeRomeo:
