[Q] HELP!!! Trying to root Padfone X - Asus Padfone X and S

So first, I tried Towel Root. It did not work.
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2783536)
Second, I went to this forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2790542
Unfortunately, the link for the "The Unofficial TWRP recovery image" isn't working, so I'm out of luck.
Third, I didn't want to do this, but I said, "screw this!" and got some one click rooting apps for windows. It didn't work.
So if anyone has "The Unofficial TWRP recovery image", please take time to get the file and upload it somewhere.
If anyone knows some other way to root this phone, that would be great.
Well I hope someone answers because I really want to root my phone... :crying:

You may have not been using version 1 of Towel root

Yes. I haven't been using the first version. I just went to the website and downloaded it.
I got the first version from your link and it worked perfectly! Thank you so much!

help please: Acer Liquid Z220 root

hi all
I was pointed here to find out if I can root my Acer Liquid Z220, as there are no threads on xda about it. Its got android 5.0 on it. I dont want to flash a new rom on it, I just want to be able to delete all the google crapware on it. is there a simple way to do this? Im not a complete noob, but Im not that technical yet, and dont want to mess about too much as Im quite poor so cant just go buy another phone.
heres the link on gsmarena to it. if there is anything required, please do ask
http://www.gsmarena.com/acer_liquid_z220-7074.php
thanks in advance!
You can use kingroot latest version. It required an internet connection to finish root
---------- Post added at 07:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:19 AM ----------
After you successful root your Acer liquid z220 using kingroot apk can you backup your recovery using rashr apk and upload on internet for me to download because I had flash the wrong cwm recovery and forgot to backup stock recovery so I cannot enter recovery mode. I need your help very much.

Verizon Galaxy S 4 5.0.1 VRUGOF1

So, I've been having one hard time figuring this out. It seems to be hard to find, or I'm not looking for the right things, so I come seeking your help.
I have a Galaxy S4 (obviously, lol), here's all about it:
Model Number: SCH-I545
Android Version: 5.0.1
Baseband Version: i545VRUGOF1
Build Number: LRX22C.I545VRUGOF1
Can someone tell me if I can root it or not? Towelroot and Kingroot do not work for it. I'm guessing that's because the software is still too new. So, might it just be that there is no root for it yet?
If so, is there anyway I can get rid of the bloatware (it's so frustrating!)?
Thank you in advance!
If on stock OF1, no there is no root for it, and no downgrade options either, as bootloader was updated and locked anything below OF1

That is correct, look at the last 3 letters in your build number.

I HAVE GALAXY S4 I545 WITH 4.4.2 NK1 FIRMWARE i downloaded of1 update from sammobile.com and not instlling it because i m afraid it may lock network i m in pakistan please confirm it lock network or not please
There is no root for OF1 so the bootloader is locked on OF1, if that's what you're asking.
supposedly this thing SRS ROOT can do it but it can't root mines. Though, the computer reads out that it does.
I used the kingroot no pc apk download. [
It worked fine for me
Yep, use kingroot.
I found that last night that KINGO ROOT is working on sch-i545 build VRUGOF1.
Link for future reference. The old method is better imo. Root is possible with kingroot but didn't work when i swithed to supersu
You have to use kingroot to grant a terminal su permission, then uninstall kingroot, and lastly install SuperSU via the terminal. Google it for a more in-depth walkthrough. I did it in 5 minutes sitting in my car. SuperSU is better, and it plays nice with more apps. Good luck! Message me if you need a link.

if you just bought the phone and you was like *oh yeah, now I can customize the **** out of him* that must be a big disappoint like me you can't do **** with the device :d until the deves unlock it but if that even will happend .... just hopes
My sister in law just jumped from an iPhone to a Verizon Galaxy S4 (i545VRUGOF1) on Android 5.0.1
I'm currently with Tmobile on an S6 (rooted etc.) and have been since the S3 so I am accustomed to rooting etc. However, the root procedure for the Tmobile variant is obviously different.
Anyways, she wants me to root hers and so far as I can tell Kingroot is said to work and I can then remove it and replace with SuperSU.
My question though is what recovery works with this variant? I'm a TWRP guy myself but it doesn't sound like flashing TWRP via Odin will work with this Verizon S4.
Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks and rock on...
Ahhh, the lollipop update irreparably locks the bootloader so you can't even sideload twrp. Sorry man, but you're stuck. You can still root it tho...piece of cake. Use kingroot, then replace it with SuperSU. Instructions are in the link: http://www.w0lfdroid.com/2015/05/How-to-Remove-Replace-KingUser-KingRoot-with-SuperSU.html?m=1

I read a few posts that alluded to it being possible to flash the Kitkat firmware via Odin. Yay or nay?
Sent from my SM-G920T using XDA-Developers mobile app
Oh dear. I recall being able to reflash the bootloader etc on a g3 using Odin...to roll it back...but that was over a year ago. About the s4...probably not. Worst case, you brick it. Otherwise it just won't boot. In other words, I would be really surprised. I'll think about it and let you know if I remember anything. The best way to confirm or negate would be to Google it.
The only reason they were rolling back to KitKat was to root it early in the lollipop stages, I think. The bootloader was already and permanently upgraded. -I think. I'm tied and groggy right now...
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA-Developers mobile app
Yeah I was Google it but couldn't find anything concrete. It would seem to work and I doubt a hard brick would ensue. A soft brick could be recovered using Kies or smartswitch though in most cases. Thanks

Kyocera Brigadier [Custom ROM help using twrp]

This is my my first thread i've ever done, so be easy on me.
Now taking into thought that the Kyocera Brigadier isnt a very popular phone it makes it a lot harder to put custom ROM(s) on it.
i was wondering if the Kyocera Brigadier could have Cyanogenmod (any version) put on it, this has been on my mind since normal kitkat is starting to feel outdated to me and boring.
It would be awesome if someone could give me a step by step tutorial.
- i am rooted, with kingroot.
-first and for most i have not been able to sucessfully install twrp on my device, that is my preferred custom recovery since i've heard bad things about rom manager and clockwork mod.
-time is not an issue.
Thanks !
twrp only work on fastboot mode.

Willing to pay bouty for whoece roots j3 emerge aka smj327p aka j3popltespr .mm. bootloadrr unlocked by crom and knox disablrd with package dissl
Update Feb 22 ....i am now compiling a twrp and porting one from zenfone 3 with same chipset....so we are on our way to atleast a chance for permanent root via supersu zip. ALSO i am going to then work on a kernel with ideaa of su already installed via busybox so we can just flash kernel and update via supersu apk .

Please post any tools or links to programs that will help and i will credit you when i finally post the twrp file.
You will be hard pressed to find anyone working for that device. Dens don't work on knock off devices. If you have an unlocked bootloader then grab the kernel source and make one.

No what I mean is that it is a copy of another device. It is just a rebranded Chinese based device. That is what I mean.
Boost is known for using rebranded knock off devices. Most of the time they don't even use any for of official software. It's normal some unknown, unheard of Android version.

Mine runs on MMB29M.PVPU1AP1.....would that be a knock off?? This is done by Sprint as well, cuz they own boost. IDK tho this is J3 2017 which runs same sprint software does i believe but maybe I thouht only MTK where china phones....idk now i wanna know if its fake. I just ordered HTC Bolt which is one of their priciest phones...would thay be a knock off? I ask off sry any Moderators...Regards Doctur aka Chiraqian

I don't know any more. I'm from note 4. I was researching this device for my nephew. And came across your thread and also that link. I know I used idone to unlock my phone.
We already have twrp and root
---------- Post added at 05:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:24 PM ----------
And it's not really an engineering bootloader, it's combination firmware that gives you insecure adb to remove frp lock from frp locked devices.
There is no reason I can see for needing root without twrp. But if u must just reflash the stock recovery after your flashed root
