Rooting Elephone U (Not Pro) - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm trying to follow this guide , to install TWRP but unfortunately it's either wrong or out of date.
I managed to unlock the bootloader ok, but when it comes to using MTKDROIDTOOLS to create a scatter file, I get errors - reading around it appears that MTKDROIDTOOLS doesn't work with Lollipop and higher. (My phone is running Nougat)
So I'm looking at Miracle Box, but it's concerning that the latest post I can find is 2016
On here, I can only find references to Elephone U Pro which is a different chipset, the non-Pro version is mediatek.
So question - is there a better guide around?
Do I need to install TWRP or is there a simpler way to root?
Thanks for any help

Does your phone have fastboot?
(I never used Elephone U)

Allview V2 viper S Android 6.0 MT6753 TWRP

Hi. I have Allview V2 viper S, it has Android 6.0, Mediatek MT6753, 3 GB RAM, h ttp: //ww w.gsmarena.co m/allview_v2_viper_s-8413.php
and I am looking for a root method.
I tried all the metod present and none of them is working.(kingoroot and others)
The phone is using android 6 and its encripted by defaults, without the possibility to decript.
I am looking for helping making a TWRP recovery for this device.
I have the original recovery file from this phone, but I dont know how to make a twrp recovery.
If somene know how to, here is the original recovery image h ttps: //ufile.io/885841
The full rom can be found here h ttp: // ww w.needrom.co m/download/allview-v2-viper-s/
Thanks.
PS:
Remove the space to get the link working
i want to request the same thing as well
I wanted to write a new thread with this :
Hello,
I am starting with the specs of the device : http://www.gsmarena.com/allview_v2_viper_s-8413.php
a good device in my opinion, a little bit low-end
I have searched all over the internet and did not found any root method for this phone
KingoRoot on pc and directly apk as well, no response, it failed.
I was trying to install the philz touch recovery from gionee elife s plus http://www.gsmarena.com/gionee_elife_s_plus-7732.php, spflash gives the following error : https://i.ytimg.com/vi/XfIK-LHW6Zk/maxresdefault.jpg (screenshot not made by me)
I tried to install custom recovery for gionee elife s plus (twrp), i unlocked the bootloader https://forum.hovatek.com/thread-15270.html and ended with a bootloop.
We are a bunch of guys who just want to root their phones, without any succes (without having any knowledge about rooting development or something like this)
Please, if you have any ideea about rooting this device, or at least develop a method please, tell us.
If you want to port a ROM for this phone, I am glad to hear that.
I can give you any info about my phone, or you can give me testing products like recoveries or flashable zips.
Thank you very much for your patience.

Oukitel C5 (not Pro) MTK6580 root tutorial?

Hello,
this is my first post and I didn't really know where to create this topic. So if I'm wrong, please move it
I bought an Oukitel C5 and thought that there is a root for it but it was for the Pro version of it. I already looked here and other forums for a tutorial, but I couldn't find anything.
Now I'm looking for a tutorial to root that phone. I tried the MTK droid tools, but they are only for Android 4. Also I tried vroot, kingroot and another app, but they didn't work. I couldn't find other tutorials.
The Oukitel C5 comes with the MTK6580 chip and Android 7.0.
Is there any tutorial how I could root that phone? I don't mind if I sit there for an hour to do it

Still no luck, i have been looking now for a month.
Still No Root?!
I have tried every solution I could research.. Root Genius, Srs Root, King/Kingo Root, Framaroot, Sp Flash Tool, you name it. Okay XDA.. Is there a true solution?

what version do you have?
Still No Root?!
It just says Doogee X10 in the Model #. . Dual Sim Unlocked. Its a china phone so either MTK6795, OR MTK0633
Update Doogee X10 Chipset
I tried using several scatter files in sp flash tool, and the chipset is stated clearly as MT633
I think TWRP on this phone might be a lost cause, i have given up on the idea.
I am in the same situation, I stay here...
- Root for Unlocked Dual SIM
Wondershare for Android, Titanium Backup for Android, use OTG for this - tricky because everything in knowledge base for this stuff is usually just follow same as X5, but X10 has these details.
Unlocked + Dual SIM.
still searching for CyanogenMod
The 6.0 has default features though, Try contacting Doogee for a Factory Reset Instructions due to reading fixed corrupted pics. They might have a white paper dl that might include ROOT,
might need to translate into the territorial language but if you prove ownership you should be able to get that, maybe if you scathe a china web portal about doogee updates you migh find some useable links there
Magisk works. Make sure you:
Unlocked your bootloader
Know how to use fastboot
Have a recovery.img
Understand that if you choose to root, we are not responsible for loss.
There is no custom roms that I know of - however can build one, please do!

UMIDIGI A7S - Can't find the stock rom

Hi everyone!
I have a UMIDIGI A7S phone and I'd like to root it but I can only find the stock ROM for the UMIDIGI A7.
Does anyone know where I can find the righj ROM? I guess using the A7 ROM would brick my phone right?
Phone's Stock ROM is Android 10 GO.
Take note that before you get started to root phone's Android, you need to unlock your phone’s bootloader. The bootloader, simply put, is the program that loads the device’s operating system. It determines which applications run during your phone's startup process.
Hence check whether unlocking the bootloader is possible or not.
Hi! Do you have a link where I could find this rom please?
NO. GIYF ...
