      When you Install Root Checker, DOes it Ask for the SuperUser Permission? Root checker sometimes will say Not Installed. Try a few times.

            Bootloop is like continuous restarting. Wait for some time to finish the process. Did you get this freeze in the first boot? Or after the TWRP Flash?

        Can you mention what error did you get? If you can boot into TWRP, It means you are flashed TWRP correctly. But, you have an issue with the flashable files.

      Some region firmware makes some errors. When the TWRP installation doesn’t make any issues, you are good to go.

        Ese teléfono no vale la pena rotearlo. Yo hice todo los pasos correctamente y al intalar el magisk manager con twrp me dijo que estaba instalado correctamente. Sin embargo al intalar la apk en el teléfono no de presenta los permisos de root.
