I recently bought a huawei m865c from straight talk. I have tried several rooting methods including superoneclick, z4, gingerbreak, fastrootplus, tried to apply an update.zip from sd in recovery. I have the android SDK installed and have written a few aps and got them to come up on the phone and have checked the adb devices in cmd prompt and they work too.
If I'm not mistaken that's the ascend2. If so you might try "cricketusers " or "prepaid androids " - the root process can't be that different just because it's straight talk
Sent from my M886 using xda premium
yea, been to cricketusers and unleashed prepaids tried an sd card update method and a recovery.img install both failed
I've been working on a root for this phone. I was thinking if I can downgradee it successfully to 2.3.3, its easy to root from there. The problem is finding a version that the phone is capable of updating to. Using a 300MB .app it will go through the install to an extent, I'm thinking that is because of the limited space available on the phone's hardware. This is
The error message I get when using this process. So this definitely seems to be a possible root method, feel free to PM me with any info you may find.

Well, cricket had the M865 and straight talk had M865C, and there's something didn't about the straight talk one, it had no fastboot and I can't flash CWM with anything I can use with most phones.

Did it work? If so, let the dev and others know. Now you can help some people. I knew nothing when I started but hung onto certain things and passed them on. Hope you do the same.

On xda theirs no root method for 2.3.3. What you have to do is install a recovery, once you do that you can flash ROMs. And of course the ROMs give you root access.

There isn't only if you want to be technical. Unlockroot works, most likely your AV software is blocking it. Alternatively, you can do what the previous poster suggested, toss on CWM, and either load a custom ROM or a rooted stock one. Look in the dev section.

ERNK! WRONG!
But seriously, there is a method on here that works. Check out my signature. It has the link for a working root for the G2x. The instructions can get a little "huh?" because of how they put it all together, but if I can pull it off first try, anyone can, lol.
Just PM me if ya need any help.

I almost forgot, be sure to actually flash CWM with Nvflash. And only use CWM to flash a ROM. Stay far, far away from Rom Manager. It's not a true flash.

Hey guys, sorry to have to post such a pissy post, but I'm hoping something good will come out of this post. Basically I've been trying to Root my Xoom for months now but unfortunately everything I've tried seems not to work. I've even used LAIOT and it still isn't working. The program says that my tablet is rooted, however any Root Checker program I use says it's not Rooted. And also when I try and use Rom Toolbox, or Rom Manager, both of them say that my device is not rooted. And when I type in command prompt the text to check Root statis manually, it says it IS Rooted?

where are you at? Did you get it rooted? You might be better off starting from scratch and fastboot the original honeycomb wiping data and then rooting from there.
Additionally, the new twrp recovery 2.4.2.0 can root for you.
Thinking about swapping my Droid DNA for a Galaxy S3 and $50. My Droid is freshly unlocked, rooted and s-off all using my Mac 10.6.8 with ADB commands. The Droid is also factory unlocked for any GSM SIM including att and T-Mobile.

Get the S3 and to root and unlock the bootrom, you must use the Casual Rootkit. It will root your S3 and install Teamwin recovery. Trust me, it is worth it.

Is your Mac on 10.8? If so, using Casual from Beanstown106 will work. You'll need Java 7 installed for Casual to work. I almost encourage you to use the Casual 634 from the Verizon GSIII section on Rootzwiki instead of the Casual 734 linked in the dev section of XDA. There seems to be some issues with r734 recognizing the device is connected but it can work even so.
Alternatively, you can do the manual route using Open1your1eyes0 root thread in the dev section. It requires Odin which works great on Windows, is incompatible on Mac, and idk about Linux.

I'm not sure you'll be getting Casual to work on your setup. Maybe try the manual method by Open1your1eyes0 or the toolkit by mskip. Like I said there, if these don't work then you might want to find a spare laptop when available and knock this out.

Its possible, but there is no documentation/thread that I know of that goes into detail for this device. Might have to look on the other carrier models for threads. Everyone always uses Odin.

Yes, you do need to be unlocked to flash roms. Are you positive you are rooted? Do you have working SU or SuperSU? If so, download EZ Unlock v1.2 from Rootwiki and press unlock.

**** everything else, **** every other tool, method. **** farmaroot, **** oneclickroot, ****.... I've tried to root 3 phones till now using them in vain until I finally arrived to kingo app [kingoapp(dot)com]. You have to do like this to successfully root your phone:
Enable usb debugging by settings→developer options→usb debugging (set it to on)
Run kingo app and then connect the phone to your pc via a usb cable. If drivers for your phone have not been installed or found in your phone...kinggo app will find and download it for you(it really does and the drivers are accurate). Then click "root" and wait until it says "rooted successfully" it wont keep you waiting for long, unlike other tools. :thumbup:
I've never heard of that, how well does it work? Can you also unlock the bootloader and install roms?
The app the OP is referring to is called Framaroot (not farmaroot). The root methods the app uses is based on LOTR characters. Other versions of the GS3 are supported just not the VZW varient. Look at the compatible devices list in the OP of it thread. Link below
