I am trying to root my Vivo V11 with Android 10. The bootloader is unlocked. It says so in the dev settings, and I have to go through the warning prompt every time I reboot my device. When I run the fastboot command to flash the patched_boot.img file, it returns:
Things I've tried to troubleshoot:
Running cmd as Administrator (im using win10)
Confirmed OEM unlocking is turned on in the dev settings (it is, it says "bootloader is already unlocked"
Confirmed USB debugging is on
Disabled "Verify apps over USB" and "Verify bytecode of debuggable
apps" in the dev settings.
Confirmed file transfer is enabled from my PC and my Phone (it is, I can transfer files back and forth between them)
Tried a different USB cable
[EDIT]
