Try following this guide for the bootloader unlocking part only. It should work for you.

Then try this for the rest of the rooting part:

Hey guys, I got a question about rooting, does rooting clear all the data on the phone or flashing a rom? And another one, after just rooting (without flashing a custom rom) will I continue using the stock rom as it was before rooting, or will there be changes?
Thanks in advance!

K55V, welcome to Android Forums :hello:

Rooting does not clear your data or change anything else on your phone. It gives you more permissions to make changes to your phone, like flash a custom ROM. Just make sure you do a backup of the stock ROM before making changes.

Thanks! I'll go ahead and root now.
