Hi, I am wanting to root my sgt2 7.0 p3113 4.1.1, but have no pc. All I have is my tab and old lg optimus m. I have seen and tried z4root, framaroot and frama said not exploitable, z4root gets to acquiring root shell for about a minute then close to home screen. Is there possibly anything like z4root to will work? Or am I stuck stock?

I have been trying to do so, but I can't get to any ones I know with a pc. I wish mine still worked. I was just reading about mobile odin but its k7nda confused my it said to use device must have root access. I thought it was an apk to root my device.
rooted now but issue not resolved. ..
Well I was finally able to barrow a laptop, so im rooted now.
But the issue of a rooting apk is not resolved. There really needs to be a rooting apk. Aren't tabs ment to be a computer replacement. Well eventually. ?.. So I thats why issue of a rooting apk is not resolved.
What could be done to request an apk be made or better yet were can I find tutorials to give it ago?

Hi
Ok I know this is an old phone but I hope someone can help .
I've been hunting the forums for an easy way to root my Samsung GT-I5800 running Froyo 2.2.
There's lots of advice on the forums but they are old threads and the links they give to the suggested appllications such as :
Superonclick . z4root , etc don't work or the files are currupt.
I have used Superoneclick on a later samsung phone and it mad the job really easy but the version I have won't work with this phone / android version.
Maybe is some one has a the z4root files they could upload them , or any other suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hi
Thanks for your response .
I've tried two versions of Superoneclick v1.7.00 and 2.3.3.0 and neither work for me.
I've just tried another tool x8toolbox , this gives an error ".... root not applicable to custom rom ..."
If you have a link to another version of Superoneclick I'll try that ?

Hi
Thanks . I had seen this YouTube video, the links to superoneclick no longer work.
In fact the two links direct form the shortfuse website no longer link to the file.
Well im not sure then. Im pretty sure z4root messes up something, and it may be you need to flash a custom rom in odin. Sorry but I cant try anything myself because I dont have the phone anymore (at least for a while).

Hi
I looked for Odin on the market and it seem that Odin required root , so wouldn't I need root to use it ?
If not can you suggest a suitable custom rom ?

Odin does not require root. You have to get into download mode with a combination of keys. (May be Mobile Odin requires root, I never used it).
Check this thread for Custom roms. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1234591. I would suggest PuruKisadHybrid custom ROM.
Refer to this thread for how to use odin. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1372414
You need to install samsung drivers first.
Hi
Thanks for the information and links.
I was hoping to be able to root without wiping data but I will consider this method.
The odin tutorial was a bit hard to understand but I'll try watching carefully and it may become clear.

you can root without wiping data. Just search for rooting procedure in the forum. But custom ROM gives lot more features for you than stock one.

Hi i had this version of superoneclick 1.7.00 but it worked fine. Make sure u have turned on usb debugging and installed the drivers.Also in case of exploit use rageagainstthecage exploit and not psneuter.
And for drivers consider installing these http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/MOBILES/Samsung/Samsung-Galaxy-S-USB-Driver-for-Windows-x86.shtml
I haven't been able to find a non- data wipe method as varioius versions of superoneclick and other tools aren't working for me on this phone.
Perhaps I'll go down the custom rom route ,
If I can find some good clear instructions .
Thanks for your help.
Thanks for the link.
Unfortunately this one isn't working ether
Generating an excetion which ever exploit option is selected.
I wonder if it is an issue with the phone rather than the tool .
It has allready been hard reset to factory state ?

Has the driver been installed? Which OS you are using?
You need to install proper driver before trying to root. For your info, essentially all rooting methods are non-data wipe.

WHAT? This device has no separate recovery partition, neither CF-ROOT Kernel. This is not Galaxy S or S3
z4Root should work on 2.1, for 2.2 the easiest way is to use custom kernel, with it you get custom recovery and via that recovery you can flash some zip with su binary and then get Superuser/SuperSU app. SuperOneClick is buggy with G3.

I have a rooted StraightTalk SCH-S968C Samsung Galaxy S III (with the stock AOSP ROM) that I just screwed up. I had used EZ-Recovery to flash TWRP 2.2.0 to the phone. Now TWRP says there is no OS! I can only boot into TWRP - nothing else. It won't even let me power-down the phone. Is there some way I can recover from this, or do I now have a very expensive electronic brick (that runs TWRP)? I have adb installed on my laptop and I know it works, so that's one possible route to recovery. Any help would be much appreciated!

That's the file I am offering to host on my Website, since nobody seems to be able to download it from Dropbox. I'm having trouble downloading it from Mega... Since the file is over 1 GB, Mega insisted I needed to download their extension, but it's not compatible with Firefox 22. I tried Chrome, and Mega says that Chrome on my laptop is "a bit outdated"... sheesh! I'll try and update it.
(added later) - I found a Dropbox link for the file and it's downloading now.
If you want to FTP the file to my Website, let me know by PM and I'll give you the username and password.
I tried using fastboot to install CWM Recovery, but fastboot is eternally "waiting for device" even though it's there (adb can see it).
Aug. 7 - Got the file I needed, but didn't use it since Windows7 would not recognize the phone even after I installed the drivers. (I think it was an issue with automatic updates being disabled...) In the meantime... I tried the button-combo for the bootloader (which I swore I tried the day before and it didn't work), and the phone booted into the bootloader! From there, I pressed "Volume down" to cancel & reboot the phone, and it went into the stock system - it was all still there! First thing I did was immediately use EZ-Recovery to flash CWM 5.8.4.5. - Issue resolved!

No, you can't root the tablet (given you're still on Samsung Stock ROM and therefore stock recovery) without a PC.
You need to flash a custom recovery (Android Andi's TWRP or CWM Swipe) first ... once you got a custom recovery going you can then download the flashable ZIP file of Chainfire's SuperSU right there on the tablet and flash it through the recovery to root the ROM "from below".
Mobile ODIN to flash a custom recovery doesn't work either (just to point it out) as you're not rooted - hence why you need to use a PC at least once. Seems you either have to find a friend who has a 30-pin->USB cable for Samsung devices or buy one off of eBay or other online retailer to make it happen.

In which case you already started out completely wrong - "rooting" most Samsung devices (not so sure about the Tab 3 and newer or Galaxy S5 and newer) is "only" a matter of installing a custom recovery through ODIN and flashing SuperSU or Superuser from there ... or flashing Chainfire's CF-Auto-Root in case you want to stick to Stock ROM and not replace the stock recovery either ... of course that's all a matter of "is it available for my device", and in case of the Tab 2 all of that is available nowadays.
and now, i want to install CWM but didnt got pc.. can i use mobile odin?

Your PC does not see the tabet (Tablet in Download-Mode, attached to PC, ODIN started) or you don't have a PC?
However, if you would actually bother reading my post you even quoted, here's the crucial thing: "Mobile ODIN to flash a custom recovery doesn't work either (just to point it out) as you're not rooted". NOT ROOTED = ROOT APPS WILL NOT WORK.
So, since you are also very vague on details...
IF your current ROM is ROOTED then you can use MobileODIN to flash the .tar.md5 of either Android Andi's CWM Swipe or TWRP.
IF your current ROM is NOT rooted you CAN NOT use MobileODIN as this app requires root to do its job.
In a conclusion: If you don't have a PC then maybe ask a friend who happens to have one. If you actually have a PC and Windows/ODIN does not detect the device make sure you actually installed the Samsung USB drivers on your PC, make sure you use a compatible version of ODIN (v3.07 should work fine), make sure your tablet is in Download Mode before you plug it into your Computer (ODIN already started).
If you're still having problems try a new post in where you actually describe your problems with more details than just "want to install CWM but didnt got pc".

I believe I installed cwm with an app called ROM manager. It pretty much did it for me.

Ok, On your S4 I recommend that you have the OTA Package which you can get from Here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934552137
And You should have at least 50% battery life left.
Ok. Go and download Kingroot V4.5 http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/one-click-root-tool-android-2-x-5-0-t3107461
Install it. It should say that root access is unavailable. Click on Try to root.
It takes around 3 to 5 minutes to get root access. once done you should see at the top Root Successful or something like that.
If it fails I suggest that you either try again or just give up on rooting your phone.
But since ATT Has a LOCKED Bootloader we cant install a recovery i think. Anyways I hope you guys found this tutorial working and have fun rooting.
Oh yeah I forgot: Thank You Kingxteam for providing us with kingroot

Working Ha ? I Am Lollipop 5.0.1 .. I Need To Root Now .. Please Help Me
Can anyone confirm that this works? I remember someone posted a kingoroot here in the att s4 forums and it put a lot of junk on the phone

It works. I'm using it to edit my coc host file. I'll add some screen shots to this post to confirm that this works. Oh yeah. Kingroot just installs purify which I removed like any other app
I'm using my phone so I just looked up photo uploader.
I can't upload images yet since I'm new but this does work as long as it's the newer kingroot I had to reflash the 5.0update last night because I installed a recovery and as all ways it fails due the locked bootloader so I tried to root again and it works fine.
Will kingoroot delete all user data and everything?

I suppose you mean Kingroot not Kingoroot. And no it will not
also guys: This is not using kingoroot. I am using kingroot. They are two completely different applications for root.

Thanks for clarification. Kingoroot was the shady one

I ended up finding them on my own. Kingroot mobile didn't work but the desktop version rooted. I'd rather the binary was SuperSU for compatibility nags with titanium but it works.

Thanks! I rooted my AT&T I337 running stock 5.0.1. App method did not work. I used the kingroot desktop program from the thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/one-click-root-tool-android-2-x-5-0-t3107461
If you don't like the kingroot su binary, check out super sume in the play store. It replaces kinguser with supersu. Costs $1. Well worth it imo.
Edit: I'm on build OC4.

Yes. But, you can't just install SuperSU binary and use it to replace the KingSU binary. It fails.

Cool story.
But, this is so simple. Instead of having to flash this and that with flashfire and safestrap, you can just go straight from lollipop, use a one click root tool, and then use another one click app to switch to SuperSU and remove the other. It's simplicity, compared to keep root method, is great. Now, if we could just get someone to figure out how to do it with one step, we'll be golden. Many are thinking there is still no way to root straight from lollipop. This works. So, if these cats can do it, then another dev can figure out how to get SuperSU injected instead of Kingroot. If that can happen, then safestrap can also be updated to work with lollipop instead of having to swap kk kernel. This is progress.
edit: When I'm wrong, I'm wrong. I tried several times to update to 0C4 after using this method. It failed every time. Then, I flashed the rooted 0C3 with flashfire and the update worked flawlessly. I wouldn't suggest this kingroot anymore to anyone. Cheers.

Anyone tried to root stock OC4? Using this method
Worked for me
Desktop version worked for me even did the sume 1.00 thing. All rooted with Lolipop and SuperSU
What recovery to use
What recovery can I use because I used Flashing to flash ClockworkMod Touch and on restart I trying to goto recovery I got a Yellow triangle saying "there is unauthorized att software found on this phone". Can I use TWRP or some new one I heard about called Philz?

I answered your question in another thread you started.
Snapping along on stock rooted 0C4 I337, wishing for some good up to date lollipop ROM's to throw into flashfire

Just used KingRoot to root my I337 with OC4. Took a few minutes and then took off with a percentage rapidly climbing to 100%. Unfortunately for those of us who cannot read Chinese you have to feel your way through the user interface.
Here are some notes to help (I should have grabbed screen shots and will try to do so):
Make sure your PC has the I337 drivers and they work.
Enable developer mode on the I337.
Download and install the desktop version of KingRoot.
Connect the I337 to the PC with USB. Let Windows do its handshake stuff.
Launch KingRoot, it will find the phone and give you a screen (all in Chinese) showing how to turn on USB Debug mode. For English that is in Settings | More | Developer Options. Check the USB debugging box.
Phone will ask to verify the computer RSA key, accept it.
Phone also asked twice to allow Google to check for security threats. I declined both.
KingRoot will see that it can talk with the phone and do its thing.
A few minutes later I had KingRoot and root access on my 5.0.1 OC4 phone as verified with Root Checker Basic. It has survived a power cycle with battery removal.
Added screen shots from phone. Need to get some from KingRoot.
When KingRoot has everything ready you will see some Chinese text followed by Root on a blue (IIRC) button. Click that to launch the rooting.
