Hello I'd like to root my Medion x5004 (Stock Android 5.0.2) so I can disable onsceen buttons, but I can't find any tutorials to do that.
Specs: To prevent spam on the XDA forums, ALL new users prevented from posting outside links in their messages. After approximately 10 posts, you will be able to post outside links. Thank you for understanding!

Hi!
So we basicly have 2 threads for this phone. This one and that one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/medion-x5004-root-t3276048/post65266591#post65266591
I have posted there already, on what I've already tried. I will continue my quest to rooting.
I shall win :silly:
Cheers.
hey guys..
i need some part of this device..actually i need s5004 but maybe they can use the same parts..
is anyone can help me pls..?
Found solution!
With Kingroot (kingroot.net) it's possible to root X5004.
You just have to download the App, if it works too with Windows... idk
But with the app its working (Medion X5004 -MD99238):angel:
It´s also possible to root with Kingoroot at windows it takes a while but after reboot it was rooted. Works also fine for Medion X5020 (Same Phone but 32GB Flash)
[solved]Medion X5004 Root
Using Kingo Root program
Downloading KingoRoot manufacture and installation and start-up
Connect the device to your computer via microUSB cable (I prefer the original cable)
Wait until Kingo detects vashe mobile device Android
We get the root
press Root (At the bottom in the middle)
We get the root
Wait until the process is completed and the device is reset
Do not forget to check on root
custom rom
So what about custom rom now? I rooted but there is no custom rom
Anyone looking to root Medion devices; kingo root does work. I've done three of them now, none have rooted on the first attempt. The most success I've had was in this order:
Dowload kingo root for windows
Download kingo root app. Use google, not playstore or you'll end up with kingroot, which would also work but annoyingly takes over your phone and not easy to remove.
Download root checker app
Developer options enabled, usb debugging and oem enabled
In settings/security allow for unknown apps
Now with a cable proven to properly connect your phone to your PC through USB, run the kingo root program. The phone can reboot a few times during the process, don't mess with it. It will either hang at 90% and say unsuccessful or give (false) hope of 'root successful'. If it says successful, run the root checker app to make sure, but don't be disappointed if it says the phone isn't rooted.
Now, restart the phone and run the Kingo root app. The fastest I've had one of these phones root was 1x root through windows and 2x root through the app. Apparently these devices take more effort to allocate the scripting correctly.
If you've run the phone through kingo root windows once and twice through the android app and still no success; run it through the windows root again. Eventually it will root with one of the two.
So just repeat: 1x windows, 2x apk, 1x windows, 2x apk until your root checker gives you the green light. Don't trust kingo root itself when they say root successful, always check it with a root checker app.
Good luck. Patience in a virtue.

Sorry dude, have been on holiday
yeah, i had that aswel, here's what to do in case you still haven't managed to root your device:
1. Download and install latest ADB drivers from here (make sure you have USB Debugging on)
2. Download and Install the latest Root Master. Google for VROOT and it should be the first link, or just click here
3. Disconnect your phone from pc, open VROOT, connect your phone (USB Debugging must be on) once your phone is detected it will show the model number
4. Click the green button in the bottom right and wait for the app to do its thing and you should see the tick and A27 ROOT once its done and your phone should reboot, you'll see an extra app in your drawer called superuser after reboot.
5. To confirm root install Root Checker from Play Store to confirm root.
Cheers

Use the same method for the Alcatel one touch idol mini
this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2784451&d=1402084843
And I believe its the third option down, try it out. No recovery that I know of yet though.

You can root it with Kingo android root. Worked for me anyway.

This is my 1st post. I wanted to 2nd this. I just got my tablet for free from T-Mobile, AND they knocked $40 off my bill for giving me this tablet and 5gb of data on the tablet. I rooted it this morning with Kingo as well. It was extremely easy once I actually got the tablet to connect to their program. With the difficulty of connecting included, I would rate the total difficulty to root this tablet using Kingo as a 3/10. If you can actually get the tablet to connect to their program easily, then I would rate it as a 0.25/10.
Not to mention this was my first time rooting anything. Now if an exploit could come out for my XTE Xmax, I would be one happy camper.

I finally have root! I used the KingRoot app found here in XDA (I will link it later). It took about a day and many attempts. Bye bye bloat!
Update: it seems to be a temporary root as root didn't survive a reboot. KingRooting it again as I type this

Ok. This worked for me on ZTE KIS 3 MAx (aka digicel 800)
1. get MTK Engineering Mode,
2. install and select MTK settings and swipe across the main screen (to the left) untill until u reach log and debug (ithink) then tap on User2 root.
3. Run user2root.
4. Then install Kingoroot, on a windows PC
5. Connect phone ( pllz ensure that usb-debug and all the usually on phone setting are done i.. not to worry if you havent kingoroot will walk you
through it)
6. Run KingoRoot.... select "Root".. it may also give the option to select Root again , as the user2root will be detected a root. If so please select Root Again.
7. Once process has started, do not unglug phone unless it states either (rooted or failed)
Mine said successful.. Rooted.
I checked with root checker basic.. and it said the phone was not
I restarted the phone and ran root checker again. this time it said ROOT verified.
allow for SU# and you are good.
(have dat Digicel)

Thank you - that worked perfectly for the ZTE Kis3 max that I had and wanted to root.
Without the steps in the "MTK engineering app" Kingo 1.4.3 was not able to root the phone but after applying the steps you described it worked with the Windows version after enabling USB Debugging mode.

Just replacing the Kingo apps with SuperSU almost caused the whole operation to fail. That might be the task for another day ... currently I want to use Link2SD to free up some space and update all system applications.
Root / rooting for Xperia E4 (E2105 'Jasmine')
EASY ROOTING PROCESS + REPLACE KINGROOT WITH SUPER SU!!
[this procedure might also work with E4g and E4 Dual but I have no way to verify it]
I'm starting this thread because I followed other methods, without success, and this process worked for me (5th September 2015) and it's relatively easy to do.
It succeeds in rooting the latest firmware (24.0.A.5.14) and replacing the KingRoot junk apps (which I don't want on my phone) with SuperSU
I have a Xperia E4 (E2105) and a PC running on Windows 7 (64 bits)
before anything else:
-- I backed up all my important data/info/photos/messages/chats/etc.
-- I went to Google Play and bought Super SuMe, but didn't install it, they advise to only install it AFTER you gain root with KingRoot. The developer has a thread here in XDA where you can get the APK for free(?), but I'm not sure if it's the latest version, and I wanted to support their work so I paid for it.
Now, my steps to root the E4:
You might want to skip to POINT 2 if you already have the latest firmware (24.0.A.5.14)
-- I downloaded and installed Flashtool. Started flashtool (not 64 bit, just the 'normal' 32 bit flashtool)
-- from inside Flashtool I ran Xperifirm and searched for a 24.0.A.5.14 firmware (the latest one, at the moment) for my phone, in the geographical area of my choice

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
-- flashed my phone with the chosen firmware.
-
POINT 2
-- after flashing the firmware to your phone unplug the cable, turn the phone ON and acquire 'Developer' status: >> go to the phone settings/About phone/scroll down to bottom and press 'Build number' 10(?) times
-- go to the previous screen into the new "Developer options" menu and check "USB debugging"
-- Now on your PC go to the KingRoot site and download their program for Windows (I tried using just the APK on my phone but it failed to root it, the Windows program was successful)
-- KingRoot might install garbage on your PC (or worse) so it might be a good idea to create a restore point in Windows now, that you can revert to after using and uninstalling KingRoot on your PC
-- After installing it I started KingRoot on my PC and connected the cable to my phone. When KingRoot recognized my phone it showed me on my computer screen how to allow for debugging. You follow the instruction (you press 1 button on your phone) then on your PC you press the button to Root and wait. In my case it worked at the 1st try, but my phone restarted in the middle of the process.
-- After it told me it had rooted my phone successfully I unplugged the cable, went to Google play on my phone and downloaded/installed the Super SuMe app (which I had bought earlier)
-- Super SuMe has to be started twice (2 times) to fully work. So start it once, wait for it to close, and then start it again. My paid version of Super SuMe worked. If you downloaded the APK from the developer thread on XDA make sure you already have the APK available on your memory card, ready to be installed.
-- I was even able to update SuperSU successfully (I've read in other threads some people complaining they couldn't do it)
-- So now I have the latest firmware (24.0.A.5.14) on my phone (Xperia E4 E2105), it is rooted and I have the latest SuperSU yay!
I'm an Android Noob and probably won't be able to answer queries that some people might have.
I'm just posting this method because it worked for me and it was fairly easy to do, so it might help someone else in my situation and without much technical knowledge.
I just found out a small app get's left behind on your phone that you might want to get removed, called KrHelper4Pc, I'm sure it's from KingRoot
It is not visible on your app drawer (no icon showing), I uninstalled it with the Titanium Backup app but you can use a similar app
But my Xperia is not rooting with king root it shows error on 90%
Sent from my E2115 using XDA Free mobile app
Having error rooting too, and Kingroot force close when opening...
Update : working after few tries!! Didn't do anything particular for it
when im connected in flash mode , device after 5 sec disconnected.. any solution for this ? ( i have the latest version of flash tool)
E4
My xperia is trying some scrips to complite but evry time faill on 90%! See pic
Flashing is NOT optional for rooting proccess!
Thank you for your post but you missed a point, you have to flash the device in order to use exploits, otherwise KingRoot or similar apps won't work.The firmware version doesn't matter.
Please note that flashing proccess is necessary for exploits that KingRoot uses to work.That doesn't matter if you have already the latest version mentioned in the post (24.0.A.5.14) you have to flash your device.To enter flash mode apply the following steps :
1- Turn off your device
2- Press the volume DOWN button.
3- Plug in USB cable.
It's beneficial to mention that KingRoot is an aggressive app that installs its own su binaries which are outdated. In order to replace KingRoot with SuperSU you can use the app called SuperSU-Me. Version 6.7(64) worked for me.
Ok, so I don't want to continue with this after I get some specified things in order to pursue the root methods.
My phone is Allview V2 viper x+ 3 gb ram bla bla (http://allview.ro/produse/telefoane/viper/v2-viper-x-plus-gold.html)
I'm backing up now few things and after that will backup the system files like recovery, imgs and more so, just for to be sure I have some back up in order to get it back to life if something gone's wrong.
I have 2 problems to solve with this phone.
1. After I changed my sd card to be the default internat storage for apps, everytime I try to install some app from market it's says something about hardwer is not compatible or something like this, but If i'll download the apk from some site (same apk) is working, well this is the first problem and is unsolved.
2.I want to have the phone rooted, I saw many posts with this method of supersu beta root and I have to flash some recovery img (I'm always trying and I see if is working, but I have a lot to save from my phone, so I'll have to wait to finish the full backup, reset the phone, get the sd card off and so on).
I tried to search a good version of TWRP for my phone, but I don't find any good compatbile.
My question for you is :
1.Did anybody had a successful root with this phone?
2.Which method is better to root an marshmallow? (6.0)
3.There is some recovery of twrp compatbile with this phone?
4.Does the ota update will work after the root process? (because I'm thinking that they could have some update to 6.0.1, but Idk when).
##Update##
I came back to previous version of 5.1 and root it and then I'll try the method from here with flashfire.
http://www.howtogeek.com/192402/why-androids-ota-updates-remove-root-and-how-to-keep-it/
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
##Update-2##
Failed every method I tried.
- Failed installing custom recovery carliv, cwm, twrp (all failing, is not booting after flashing custom recovery, the only one who works is that carliv touch but if I install it, will not boot anymore)
- Failed kingroot (suppose to have some 6 method of rooting one click root)
- Failed flashing supersu, not working without a custom recovery .
- Tried to search for some custom rom to install with carliv, but I didn't find any good, all had errors that I didn't find to solve. and is crazy that I can't root the phone.
Note : What method remains?
If someone know..
##Update-3##
After many many unsucessful custom recoverys, successful bootloader unlock and many resets, didn't get any luck.
I'll remain on 5.1 till I have a clearly method of rooting the marshmallow without having to change the custom recovery, or maybe till I find a good custom recovery that works with anything I need.
Or till they update the android 6.0 to 6.0.1 (I saw that they have some root access option).
Maybe someday someone will text here with some method or similar, so I'll look here everyday till I find a way ;3
Ps. : Even if is a gionee s plus, the methods I saw for it, didn't worked aswell.
Cya.

Tried this too and voilla .. ..
