Need help rooting phone [Nokia 5, Android 8.1.0]

I have a Nokia 5 running Android 8.1.0

I'm willing to do anything to root this, even offer reward.

Thanks!
older/budget phones have always been a pain when it comes to modifications, i looked around and it seems like you would most likely have to downgrade to an older version of android, unlock the bootloader, flash TWRP and then go about rooting. I am not sure what the exact requirements for your phone would be, take a look on xda developers and see if anyone has found a definite/better detailed work around.

keep in mind that if you mess up, your phone could end up being a shiny paperweight.

Fucked it trying to downgrade. My bad for not doing research before buying it 😁
