In my opinion, you don’t need rooting for your Moto G7 Play. If you thought you could Improve Performance By Root; With the Qualcomm SDM632 Snapdragon 632 Octa-Core processor and 2 GB RAM, your device can perform well. If you don’t know how much RAM you need, You will never use this much RAM. You should not Boot into Normal OS Booting, by pressing the power button, after firmware flash.
