Step 3: Copying the Boot Image to Your Device
Locate the boot image file within the extracted firmware package. Connect your Infinix NOTE 10 Pro X695 to your computer via USB and transfer the boot image file to the root directory of your device’s internal storage or an easily accessible folder.
Step 4: Patching the Boot Image with Magisk
Download the latest version of Magisk Manager onto your Infinix NOTE 10 Pro X695 device. Launch the Magisk Manager app and select the “Install” option from the main menu. Choose “Select and Patch a File” and navigate to the location where you copied the boot image file.

Step 5: Flashing the Patched Boot Image
Ensure your Infinix NOTE 10 Pro X695 is still connected to your computer in fastboot mode. Open a command prompt or terminal window, navigate to the folder where you have the patched boot image file (magisk_patched_XXXXX.img), and enter the following commands: fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img ( vbmeta can be found in firmware of the device )
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash boot magisk_patched_XXXXX.img

Step 6: Rebooting and Verifying Root Access
After completing the flashing process, input the command “fastboot reboot” to initiate the restart of your Infinix NOTE 10 Pro X695. Let the device boot up, and go through the setup process as if it were reset. Then, proceed to install and open the Magisk Manager app. Follow any additional setup prompts. Congratulations!
