This root method is tested and working on multiple build versions of the Tecno Camon 17 CG6J, including V1417 and V433. Please double-check your phone's build number before proceeding with any steps or file flashing.
š Must-Read Before You Start Rooting
Important: Always match your root files with your exact build version (e.g., V1417 or V433). Using the wrong file may cause your Tecno Camon 17 CG6J to bootloop, enter fastboot mode, or show a black screen.
