Samsung Galaxy C7 Pro SM-C7010 Android 8 Root Bit3
This tutorial works with SM-C7010 Chinese and Hongkong Variants. This guide will only work with devices running android 8 and bootloader version 3. Rooting will trip the Knox and you will lose the warranty and access to secure folder will not be available. Before proceeding make sure that the FRP lock is off (you can check in download mode).

Hi, I would like to know how you patched boot.img, I myself tried to extract boot.img.lz4 from the ROM and then use lz4-tools to extract boot.img and then hand it over to magisk for patching and then I use tar -cvf boot.tar boot.img and then test to flush it with Odin and it fails. The boot.tar was not flushed. But using the C7010ZHS3CSC1_Root.tar provided in your article, it works fine!
I am ashamed of my stupid behavior just now as I had no experience in rooting Samsung phones before this and mistakenly used oneplus and xiaomi’s rooting ideas for rooting. this is what I get for not checking the docs beforehand.
