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.

Yes there is a fairly easy way.
Also you need to read my posts in that thread you linked.
I have requested several times for it to be closed.
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?

Possible Permenant Root without unlocking bootloader [NEED TESTERS]

hi guys i have recently posted the following:
DooMLoRD's Easy Rooting Toolkit
it basically uses the zergRush expolit (thanks to Revolutionary team) to get temp root and then pushes files to get permanent root...
its reported to be working on a LOT of devices:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18805560&postcount=2
anyone here who has stock unrooted device and is willing to test this?
please test out and let me know asap
won't work. None of those devices are NAND locked, the flyer is.

No offense dude, please don't be that harsh on the guy. He doesn't have his flyer yet to test.
To OP: I can't test either, im sorry, i've already revolutionaried+honeycombd.
That's not harsh it's just to the point. I already explained why it wouldn't work. If it was that simple any of the previous temp-roots would have given the same result, that is why there are no HTC phones on the working list of devices.
If this was possible on the HTC devices we would probably have released it as a standalone revolutionary release.
DooMLoRD I went back to GB to test something else so decided to run this anyway, since it wasn't really any extra effort and as I said before it doesn't work, reboot and it's gone.

[Q] [HELP] [Samsung S4 I545 VRUDMI1] [Looked Bootloader] Need a recovery that works.

Dear XDA Developers Comunity,
First of all, I really appreciate the hard work to keep us satisfied with the updates and improvements in technological systems.
Yesterday, I made my first Root on my phone ( Verizon Samsung Galaxy S4 ).... unfortunately brings with the latest version and has the VRUMI1 basis, I have understood that the Bootloader is locked, however, if anyone has had the honor of installing any Recovery to a phone with the same version as mine, I would appreciate very much if you indicate me how to do it.
What have I done so far?
Rooted my phone
I rooted my phone very easy following the steps of ..... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2487142 (Thanks beanstown106 for this)

Then I´ve been looking for a recovery like CWM or TWRP but No luck.
.............I have tried several processes,
********* I tried via ROM Manager (CWM Recovery does not work The me .... says it installed, but it always works the recovery system default.)
********* I tried via GooManager (But the download never starts, I do not understand how bad could it be their the download servers).
********* I tried via Loki_Flash but I indicates this message "Loki about version does not match device" till after I understood that this way of flashing devices is to the MDK basis only.

Oh lordy, please read and search the threads, you already managed to read enough to get as far as you did. You can install Safe Strap, although it is a bit buggy on MI1 from what I have read. No custom recovery option. Just root and debloat and be happy, that is the best route for now. See if 4.4 can bring some new exploits. I was rooted on MI1, I just followed the thread to upgrade to MJ7 and stay rooted. I am not dealing with safe strap, just seems like too much work for a phone that already works great.
Thanks for reply

I really appreciate your prompt response. As you see, I am a new user to this kind of things. But still I seek the opportunity to find the best sources to make these changes on my phone and be lucky with testing ROMs and the best Deployed Apps .... Yes I have read that so far no method for Recovery, but you never know if someone has made work and willing to show how.
I have read about Safestrip, but I see there are errors with the Bootloader, do you think this could work for me?.
BTW Can you please give me more information about "debloat"? Thank you very much my friend.

Yes, actually you do know, because anyone that has made it work will post to XDA that they did it.
Relax. The S4 is a nice phone as it is, enjoy it for now. Pay attention here at your leisure for any new developments if you must.
There's still a huge bounty if someone gets a bootloader unlock. I doubt if somebody figured it out they would turn down a huge chunk of money and not tell anyone about it.
Don't worry, if someone unlocks the bootloader it will be all over XDA.

Catch-22

So they are getting root for locked bootloaders over in the Z3 forum. I imagine it would work for our phones, except that to do that someone with an already rooted device would need to provide the info they need

I would say that you don't understand my post. They have found a root exploit for the Z3 (or at least certain variants of it at this point) which is exactly what we z3v owners are looking for, however for the devs to make it work for our phones someone with an unlocked boot loader and root would have to supply them with the info they need. Quite obviously we don't have an unlocked boot loader to get root hence the catch-22

apparently you haven't been following the thread. Those that are developing the root method need the adb output from someone that already has root. Some of the Z3 variants already had root by unlocking the bootloader.

The root method they are working on is for locked bootloaders, they need the output from someone that previously achieved root by unlocking the bootloader. It is beneficial on Sony devices to have root without unlocking the bootloader so you can save your DRM keys/back up the TA partion. Also rooting without unlocking doesn't disable some on the camera functions.

not everyone would need to provide the adb output, just one person with the device. So, if by a miracle, one person had a z3v with an unlockable boot loader, rooted their phone and provided the adb output then they might be able to make the root tool work on the z3v's that have locked boot loaders, but since no one, afaik, has a z3v with an unlocked boot loader then we can't achieve root via the root tool. Thus the catch-22

Yeah I got the reference, if I had root so would everyone else here cause I would share it with everyone and claim the three thousand dollar bounty offered.

I suspect we won't have to worry about anyone collecting that bounty in the near future.
So I am npt that experienced when it comes to this stuff but im pretty sure verizon does NOT have an unlocked bootloader. I have the s4 and am looking into the z3v. I know people are still currently trying to break it. But the s4 can use towel root. Obviously its not that simple here since its not done yet. But seeing as this is still fairly new. They will have root sometime soon.

If you had read the thread, there's no catch 22. The exploits they're leveraging were patched on the Z3v and TMo Z3 prior to release. It was stated multiple times.

Wrong, there's a way to root the phone. The first step is to flash the recovery partition with a custom recovery (TWRP), and then to install SuperSU from the custom recovery, which effectively roots the phone. But for now the flashing utility is still not publicly released.

I know you said you have the root tool. Maybe if you request to publish it, more people will be pumped about it. Even if it's a beta I mentioned what I said before on my prior post, there is nothing available because DeckerSu hasn't publicly released it.

I just got this idol4 yesterday. Its replacing my moto e 2015 xt1527 that I had rooted. Sadly I lost that phone. Sadly because I had become so familiar with that device and its major ROM developers/contributors over the last year
So I must say I was a bit disappointed to hear rooting this device will not be as straight forward as last time.
If there are any steps I can take to aid the process feel free to let me know.
I've started pulling logs and procs and stuff

Here are a few tidbits. So far I haven't done anything extraneous like attempt any flashes, I've just been peeping. ADB replies "device" when prompted and let me cp those files. .
Is there something specific I need to be pulling that would help crack open this Idol?
P.s. The text document getprop.txt was generated with terminal command getprop in ADB shell. Its funny, the busybox components look present in system/bin, yet many commands return errors like "get proc not found in system/bin/sh..." to that effect.
And this line popped right out from that same document: [init.svc.flash_recovery]: [stopped]
I'm not sure if any of this info is useful to anyone. So far I haven't found a use for it. Lol
I'm still digging..
I havent been on here for awhile. Any new news on the idol4 for cricket? Any rooting possibilities yet?

Question New to The A7 lite need some help.

Long story short.
I picked up this cheap tablet because i want to install it in my car permanently. If it gets stolen it's easily replaceable. It is a SM-T227U
Upon buying it I've found out a couple things. I can't root it? And
I cant use android auto on it.
I've heen digging through these forums but the threads are kinda confusing. Would anyone have time to walk me through a root process and show me how to obtain whatever os I need to accomplish what I'm trying to do? My biggest concern right now is getting android auto to connect wirelessly to my Kenwood.
I side loaded the apk but, my device still won't connect for audio. Only calls. Which I don't have lol
