Rooting Microsoft devices
SafeRooting's database includes 21 Microsoft devices, catalogued here for reference. Many Microsoft models predate modern Android or run non-Android operating systems, so most fall outside what an Android rooting service can work with — rooting applies specifically to Android, and there is no equivalent procedure for feature phones or legacy platforms.
Where a Microsoft device does run Android, rooting follows the standard path — unlock the bootloader, then flash a Magisk-patched boot image over fastboot — but availability depends entirely on the individual model and its age. Older hardware often lacks the OEM Unlocking toggle and community firmware that modern rooting relies on. Each Microsoft model page shows the specifications we have on record so you can check what you are working with.
If your goal is a phone you can actually root today — for ad blocking, complete backups, bloatware removal, or custom ROMs — you will have far more success with a current Android device. Browse our supported Android brands to find a model with an open bootloader and an active rooting community, and we will confirm compatibility before any work begins.

Microsoft rooting — frequently asked questions
Can Microsoft phones be rooted?
Only if the specific model runs Android and exposes a bootloader unlock. Many Microsoft devices in our database are legacy or non-Android and cannot be rooted — check the individual model page for its status.
Why are Microsoft devices in this database?
They are included for specification reference and comparison. Listing a device does not mean it is rootable; modern Android phones are the ones our service supports.
What should I root instead?
A current Android phone from a brand with an open unlock path. Browse our brand pages to find a supported model and its exact root method.
