Needing this as well. BTW, is your device Boost Mobile? And also, you have TWRP for Recovery as well.

Yea its Boost. I still have the phone but dont use it much anymore. I got tired of the sluggishness and did some research on upgrading. Ended up buying the LG X Power cause it seemed the best one for the money in terms of cpu/gpu/ram/storage. Love the phone, but cant root it yet it seems

Add me to the list of people who would be grateful if someone had this and could upload it.

If u have Boost try and save 70 bucks and get the X Power, its well worth it!

[Q] Rooting ZTE Majesty

Hey everyone! New here. I just got my new ZTE Majesty from Straight Talk yesterday and I hear its a relatively new phone out on the market. But, ever since yesterday I have been trying to get this darn thing rooted, but I have had no success. I've tried Motochoper, z4Root, SRSRoot, Unlock Root and a few more I can't remember. I don't get what is up with this phone, but it seems almost impossible. It's like there is something missing. I can glitch z4Root to get it to stay for a little bit... but it's barely functional. It goes away anyway.
I am running Android 4.1.2, if that has to do with anything. If anyone needs more information to help me, please do ask. I've been at work over this for the past 26 hours and it's making my brain melt.
Thanks so much. And again, if this is in the wrong section, somebody please move it. At least that way I know I'll get more hits on this problem! =)
Bump!
I'm really sorry for bumping, but I have to try to keep this at the top and not hidden away and forgotten. I have tried a few more methods (probably more dangerous methods) that also didn't work. I have posted elsewhere about rooting this phone but I haven't found anyone who can do it. Thanks so much. I know there is someone out there who can help! =D
ZTE Majesty Z796C
For the simple face that this phone came out in Sept 2013, it's no wonder why an exploit hasn't been found. Also, to complicate things, it's running Android 4.1.2. Correct me if I'm wrong, but from what I've found, this is a particularly difficult one to crack. I found a video online but the root doesn't stick. When it reboots, it's gone. Very frustrating. If anyone has anything, please let me know. Can't stand not owning my device...
BTW, it does indeed have dual core processor at 1.2 GHz.

You're talking about that Chinese root, right? That one come's SO close. But yeah, after it restart it goes away. But I have it to where before the root process ends, it sticks... but it doesn't work properly and doesn't say your device is properly rooted. Then once you restart it, it goes away. I'm trying to keep this topic as active as I can because I know someone out there is wanting to help me =D
UPDATE: I have tried the Chinese root method, SMSRoot, OneClickRoot, Klingo Android Root, SuperOneClick, RescueRoot, Poot/Ministro, z4Root, Framaroot, and even UnlockRoot Pro (a friend of mine has it). None of them Root the phone or root it permanently. It's as if the phone removes it purposely after reboot. I even tried manually rooting and no dice. Please Obi Phone Kenobi, where's our only root?
Yeah those are all the ones I tried too. I did post this on a lot of android forums but I still can't get anyone to help. This phone is about 2 weeks old and should have a root by now. If you do find a root though, would you post it here? I've been searching since the 13 for a root XD This forum may be the only chance because, well, it's a dev forum!

I just ordered one of those phones since it is on the Verizon network and that does work in the mountains and I am going to NC from Miami, I need a good throw away, anyhow......
I like to root them. My MetroPOS GS3 is rooted and I can hot spot it on 4G LTE if I need to
Even thou this would be at 3G speed, I still want to be able to hot spot 'em
so if anyone does find a root that works.......please post it here.
Also if it can be one-clicked because I use a Macbook Pro on the road, and I don't have bootcamp/Win7 on it like my iMac here at home. (That or some way to make it work thru a Mac to root it)......thanks :fingers-crossed:
So has anyone got a good root for this yet? I've been asking around but no progress. I wish I knew the problem.
It's as if 4.1.2 intentionally rejects the root and uninstalls it upon reboot during the boot process. I tried looking up the exploit from other ZTE phones, but I believe it was fixed...

Yeah. That's how it seems, especially since I can get Kingo to root it and if I unplug my device from my PC right before it finishes to tell it to shut down. But it works very temporarily (like, super temporarily. Titanium Backup doesn't work and I can't install a hacked Google Play). Root checker says it is rooted, though. But only until I restart.
Any way to downgrade this to 4.0 at all?
Crazy ZTE
Wow do they really have this phone locked! I've tried everything under the sun to ROOT this device....NO GO!!!!.....Man this is kinda fun. I really do like a good challenge...
Any luck, folks? OneClick Root's website is now claiming to work on Majesty: Has anyone attempted it lately? I'm new to rooting and a bit nervous.

I just tried it and it doesn't work. They trolled me lol. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't try it because I could have made my phone unrootable by trying so many different methods on it. I would honestly SEND my phone to a professional rooter and get them to make a method for it.

[Q] Any updates with rooting ND7?

Just looking to root the most current OTA, my search so far makes me believe its not possible. Is this true or am I missing something?
Thnak you!
I'm wondering the same thing. I recently had to get a replacement phone and unfortunately it's running stock 4.4.2. First time I've ever had a phone with a bootloader that couldn't be unlocked. I would like to at least have my phone rooted. Anyone out there willing to share a root solution with us?

Yeah it really sucks. I need root to fully make use of my chromecast. A bunch of devices received screen mirroring but not the note 2. Such a sinple thing but so difficult to root. Hope we can get root soon. Thank you to anyone who is still working on this.

Root instructions for the Phab 2 Pro?

Has anyone successfully rooted this phone yet? I found root instructions by googling, but they were posted before the release of the phone so I don't trust them. For example:
http://guideroot.net/how-to-root-lenovo-phab-2-pro/

I temp rooted mine with dirty cow, however it gained me very little. There are three main obstacles: 1) SELinux prevents most things from working, because each program runs within a tight security context, 2) using dirty cow causes the kernel to not save changes to the partition (it doesn't want to write a corrupted partition to disk), in other words a r/w /system is useless, even when you can finally write to it, 3) using dirty cow on the most attractive programs (from a permissions perspective) causes "little" problems like the screen going off.
I've been monitoring another XDA thread (sorry, link is at home) where they are working through these issues on another device. There are various approaches and workarounds, but they currently all involve way more risk than I can justify for a $500 phone.
AIUI, once you've got root, you need to be able to put selinux into permissive mode, but surely getting temp root is a start?
Can you not install systemless root?
If I got the dates right, the phone kernel should be affected by this bug. A proof of concept seemed to be promised by the reporter in the next few days. http://seclists.org/oss-sec/2016/q4/607
Will be interesting to see how it compares to dirty cow as far as access.

Well, I tried KingoRoot by running the apk and it failed with an error at 90%. They say there is a version that can be run from Windows, but it appears to be no longer available. I emailed support. I will post again if I make any progress.

Please note that the phone is 64-bit. This is source code that requires compilation and additional code to do anything useful. Prerequisites include the NDK and related build tools installed via Android Studio. I run Linux so it was relatively painless, but I imagine it might be more of a challenge under Windows.

thanks, I tried that out of curiosity on my phone and it worked (Lollipop, stock Sony Xperia Z Ultra ROM).

Hi. I know this thread is about the Lenovo Phab2 Pro and I have the Lenovo Phab2 but maybe someone can help me. I tried what was suggested on this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/phab-2/how-to/how-to-root-phab-2-pb2-650y-t3524305 But it seems I screwed up and now the phone gets stuck in the Lenovo sign. I'd really appreciate some help since I just bought this phone 2 days ago and now I can't use it. I can access TWRP but it seems there's nothing in /system. I think maybe that's the problem. I'm no expert but since I had rooted and downgraded and upgraded firmware several times on my previous phone, a LG G3. I thought maybe I could do this. I shouldn't have If someone can help me I'd really appreciate. Thanks in advance.
I was able to fix this. Sorry to have bothered.
Hi,
I've been able to get proper root access on this phone. One new problem I am facing is that the tango camera and sensors doesn't seem to work. Normal camera works just fine.
Is this related to the rooting or can it be anything else entirely?
Edit: Never mind. I was able to fix it without having to remove the root. Apparently 'Tango Core' didn't have permissions to access camera. I am not sure how that got reset. So I gave access to it and now it works just fine.

Why no root for Alcatel A30?

Same here
Seriously, I was thinking that at this price point it would be on here pretty quickly. I can't even get the damn thing into download mode. I get it to the download screen, where it says hit volume up to enter download and power to exit and regardless of what I do it reboots to system. Really frustrating.
Anyone with any luck?
I tried kingroot, doesn't work
Been looking at this phone as a possible secondary, mess-around-with device since the R1 Plus is a bit too pricy. Would any of you mind giving me the Android version, kernel version, and security update for this phone? A screenshot of the settings screen would do just fine
It would take programming knowledge, but I wonder if we could use a known Linux kernel exploit to get root on this thing, or maybe better yet a bootloader unlock (very unlikely but not impossible)

Thanks for that. This is unfortunately what I was afraid of--although the security patch isn't the newest it's still pretty new. Fortunately it's still a 3.10.X kernel, as there seems to be lots of potential vulnerabilities listed for them on this one CVE website I took a look at before.
Getting root will no doubt be tricky, but I don't think it'll be impossible. I know some people from the other Amazon Prime phone that were able to turn a known vulnerability into an actual exploit, so maybe I can contact them and ask for some help if they're willing. In the meantime of course, we just have to keep our eyes open for anything anyone else comes out with, and of course NOT TAKE ANY ANDROID UPDATES EVER.

Nope, not looking too good here. Wasn't able to reach the others I said I would try to get in touch with. For now just make sure you don't take any firmware updates, and I guess keep trying with apps like KingRoot/Kingo every now and then to see if something eventually works
Hold off on updating firmware guys. May have found something you could use. The article says it's made for the Nexus 6 bootloader but I wonder if it could be ported to other devices?
EDIT: False alarm, looks like its only for Motorola bootloaders (Nexus 6, and MAYBE other things)

Aww, I would've kept it if I were you. They came out with an open source tool that lets you check bootloaders for vulnerabilities. If we got ahold of some firmware files, maybe we couldve found some potential holes in the software to exploit...

Its easy, you download magisk manager apk , you donwload your firmware unzip and on magisk manager select installé / patched boot.img select the boot.img on your firmware file, a new patched-boot.img is create after this you flash the new patched-boot.img with fastboot or maybee exist a tool for your phone brand for flash i dont know for your phone and finish

Unfortunately this device will likely be locked just like the J327T.
I have been watching that thread and everything that has been tried is pretty much what I attempted to explain would be a waste of time.
The combination firmware is useless to gain root on nougat.
No auto root is ever gonna work either and neither is Flashfire or SuperSU.
There is a list of reasons why these things won't work, but I'll not waste my time in that thread explaining why.
I don't mind explaining further why here. Just so others will not waste efforts like on the J327T thread.
I'll let that thread run its course until all avenues have reached their inevitable dead ends.
They are harsh words, but unfortunately they are truth.
Suffice to say that the only real way for this device to see root is either an unlocked bootloader (highly unlikely), a proper engineering binary or an exploit is released for Android 7.
If an exploit is found then Kingroot will almost certainly incorporate it in their Software and then there maybe a chance that the combination binary (not the whole firmware) will help get root.
If anyone can confirm for sure this device doesn't have a locked bootloader then I'd be happy to work on it.

Nothing in that thread will work.
Again it comes down to people who don't understand what they are posting.
It's not me being negative, these things just don't work. If you want me to go in to detail for why then I can explain.

No, do bother going into detail, i prolly wouldnt understand.
If/When you work on either the J327T or J727T, i'm here to test....
BTW Chimera is saying them can root both devices. Before i think of putting up the money, what are your thoughts? At that point i might be rooted but no recovery
J727T/1 Recovery/Root (SS SafeStrap)???
Would this work?
Or be a good place to start, building off it???
IF I remember right, it was used for the S4 or S5 att, with same issue. It would set up recovery after bootloader, or something like that. I'm no noon, but not a senior either.
Just a suggestion??
Would be great if someone could implement it to work??
What u think?

I'm don't believe it is still being used today on the new OS's.
Was just a thought, if anyone thinks it may be an option to get the file and port it or whatever have to do to it to make it work for this soo to say non-rootable phone.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this here idea?
