Hello everybody and first of all, forgive me for my English. I am French and I have found no help on the French forums.
Here is my problem : I have an Android Startrail Edition 2.2 (ZTE Blade Gen 2 if I understood correctly) and I wanted to root it, to use Link2SD in particular.
But it is impossible.
I tried the UnlockRoot method and Z4Root method, without success. Each time, everything goes well, the SuperUser application appears but it does not work. And why? Just because my phone is not rooted. When I go into the settings, it is still the original version of ZTE that appears. And apps like CheckRoot tell me it is not rooted. In fact when I do the experiment with Z4Root, once I engaged the TempRoot and I restart the app, I still have the choice to root my phone but don't have the "un-root" option.
In short, it looks like I have a "anti-root" mobile phone
Help me, please, my internal memory overflows
Thank you in advance.
Please
Try rooting with SuperOneClick

ZTE Blade? You could try this method: http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/ZTE_Blade_(Gen2):_Root_and_Recovery#Rooting_the_ZTE_Blade
I have also problems with root on ZTE Blade device. I use z4root - this tool working and I get message "Your device is rooted" but ZTE Blade isn't rooted.
I clear internal memory (I have more than 50MB) and I launch z4root again. After this I have rooted device!
Thank you very much for your answers.
Zielokcom, That's exactly right. I will try your method and if it does not work, then I will test those of others.
I'll let you know.

Then copy the apk to your sd card. And install it. Make sure you can install non-market apps. Then run the app and choose the permanent root option.

LG US740
Hi all, new here but not new to forums in general. I hate to dig up an old topic for a useless device but it's all I have to play with at the moment and I want to experiment with it. Can't find a lot of information on this particular device. I have found plenty of info on rooting and android development in general however nothing seems to work on this phone. Is there anyone who has some clear information on how I can get this thing truly rooted. z4root does nothing except bog it down until I reboot it. The superoneclick seemed to "root" it and installed superuser but still can't do much. Droid explorer keeps crashing with a system out of memory error. I got it to work once where it seemed to be able to explore the files but I didn't get a chance to try anything. I tried android commander and it says my phone isn't rooted. I am super interested in this stuff, but am getting very frustrated with this device. Any intelligent and resourseful information to point me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated, thank you.
I'm in the same situation as you, friend. Only use mine for wifi and don't have any type of contract/ pay as you go anything, cuz a friend didn't need it anymore, so he gave it to me. First android phone I've been able to tinker with myself. What I did to root my US740 was download and install "gingerbreak." It did the trick for me.
I went to the 4shared website and typed in "gingerbreak.apk" (without quotes) and download it to your phone.
In all your research, did you ever happen to cross information about how to "unbrick" the US740? I seemed to have "bricked" it as in it loops b/t the LG logo, US Cellular and the ANDROID animation...sometimes it hangs at the ANDROID animation, sometimes it reboots itself. The only way I can power it up is when I have it plugged into a power source. Any ideas?
Hi guys, I have a LG Optimus Chat (LG-C550) and I would like to root but I can't find anything in the web about that new device.. so I hope you can help me in that way!
Thank you very much!
p.s.: There isn't a category for that smart phone, so I posted here, I hope it's right

i don't think so ask the developer
Hi, my LG-C555 is unlocked & rooted and currently runs Android 2.2. I wanted/needed to change the internal firmware so I tried Gingerbreak (1.0, 1.1 and 1.2) but none of them seems to work.
I was able of pushing gingerbreak.apk (version 0, 1 and 2) to the /data/app folder with the USB debugging mode ON and I also have inserted a formated/mounted SD card in the phone.
Then I installed it normally, the installation started but never ended, it stayed in an infinite loop (more than 1 hour)... I had to reboot.
How did you manage to install it properly on yours?
Thank you for your time,
highmighty
Hi all,
The Gingerbreak installation starts on my rooted-network-unlocked LG-C550 but it never ends, it stays in an infinite loop (more than 1 hour)... it finally needed a reboot and unfortunately nothing has changed with the firmware version, it's still Android version 2.2, what could be the problem?
Also, could someone tell me how can I force a flash of the same default "firmware" into it?
I suspect a problem with the installed firmware so that's why I wanted to try Gingerbreak to see if my problem would go away...
Your help is much appreciated!
Regards,
highmighty
@highmighty
It looks like the exploit, which Gingerbreak uses is fixed, you can try to use the Stock-ROM of your phone. There are many other ways out there to root phones. I got my Huawei Boulder rooted with superoneclick, maybe that will do it for you too. If you find a solution please post it here for others.
Best regards

SuperOneClick worked great. Thanks for the advice. I sucessfully rooted an LG C555 from Koodo.
Hi, just a question here. My sister gave me a C550 or C555.
Does the root unlock simlock at the same time, like others devices, or not?
Hi.! all friends i would like to know something though i'm new Android ...and just got New Dell streak 5 android 2.22 froyo(NO CONTRACT) .would like know few queries
1) what is Rooting & i how safe and stable it is .after rooting..if i stick to my official-rom ?
2)And what is the best way to Root Dell streak Devises .?
3) if i Unroot my Devise after Rooting will it Void my warranty.???
Cheers and thanx for this Lovely Website dear Admin
1) Nothing will change to the Rom, but you'll be able to flash a new one once you have root (if you like). And as long as the tool or App you use is save, nothing will happen to the phone
3) Depends on the un-rooting procedure and the policy of DELL. I guess, the manufacturer could trace a root even if you try to hide, that the phone was once rooted or flash the stock rom again. However, the question is, will DELL wan't to do that? It needs time and I guess if you'd send it in, they'll just set it to stock to start working on problems...
what Rooting software should i use to root my dell streak 5 and later to unroot too which can do both ...good way .?
try superoneclick or z4root, they can root and unroot your phone with just one click.
but if you feel your current device is good enough for you, then feel free to keep it that way
Thanx a tone but hear that z4root gives problem when i unroot my devise ....any tips which version will work for me of superoneclick.? lill help would be nice ..
I would so root it
lol you would what.....did not get yaa dear alana.?

Hello,
I have checked similar topics but did not find correct answers for me.
I would like advice what are my options if I want to save contacts on SIM cards by default. I'm not google fan, so please do not advice me to use that.
I have rooted Gigabyte Gsmart GX 2 with Xposed framework, removed all Google bloatware from my device (including play store and gmail).
Now I have only option to save contacts to phone only. Even when I do that I can't export them to sim cards, tried apps like SIM manager etc. but those apps just don't see my contact in phone.
I would like to save business contacts on sim card I got from my employer and easily return them with the SIM in case i quit.
And my personal contacts on my own SIM card.
Is there any app for that? Most apps are not for dual sim which is problem for me. Best solution would be dual sim dialer with possibility to save contacts directly to SIM cards. I would even pay for such an app
My old phone Prestigio 4055 with Xperia ROM from 4PDA with android 4.1 has no problem with this. Could I somehow remake android 4.1 apps to work on 4.4 ?
Also another thing which 4.4 lacks is security when connecting device to PC, it simply connects but my 4.1 device gives me 4 options how I want to connect it, until I choose one, my pc can't access it.
And I'm also looking for list of 4.4 system apps safe to remove, especially those cloud offering bloatware.
What other options do I have? Is it possible to downgrade to 4.1 android? I contacted support and they informed me, they are not planning to make lolipop for this phone. I know that in lolipop you can save those damn contacts on sim Is it possible to cook my own ROM that would meet these criteria? How difficult it would be?
Thanks in advance for positive answers

That, that you described is what I did and result is a faulty rooting access. I dont know what else to do. Anybody? Ideas please??

Hello again.
In my desperation to get my phone properly rooted Im going to start over with my case. I'll explain it out in detail:
After reading many many threads about rooting my fierce2. I decided to give a chance to the longer method of rooting ( kingroot4.4, antutu, cpu benchmarck, geek benchmark, speedtest). After a few trays I got success!!!!!!!!!! (I tried kingroot and antutu only but after several trays I gave up). I was sooooo happy I got kingroot confirmation of root access!!!!!!!:laugh::silly::silly:.
But my happiness whent down the toilet as soon as I check with rootcheker . It said tha the root access wasnt right?????.
I'm very frustrated and annoyed. I cant use supersu or any other root tool to remove apps....
I tried unroot but wont work and everytime I install kingroot to root the phone again I cant because kingroot detects my phone as rooted but is not really....
Help please plase please. Here are the snapshots

try some apps like titanium backup which need root access if are able to uninstall pre installed apps with the help of titanium back up then it is sure that your phone is rooted maybe root checkers are not able to detect or still u face a problem open that super user app go to its setting pannel scrool down you will find a option of full unroot use that to unroot it and then again try to root your phone
hmm
I have found it is not android 4.4.2 as u guys here claim that makes you unable to save contacts to sim card anymore...
Prestigio MultiPhone 5455 DUO is also running android 4.4.2 and there are 4 options when i click save new contact> sim1, sim2, phone, google account
I downloaded 5455 rom and my question is, which file i must transfer to my phone to have these options available in dumb GSmart GX2 ?
huh
nobody knows? what criteria must i meet? I get com.android.phone error when i transfer some files like telephony provider, dialer etc..
why is that? is it even possible to transfer android system files and apps between 2 phones with same android version but different manufacter?

Framaroot doesn't work on every device. Stop posting the method that you used for your device everywhere. Don't make posts for devices that you don't have unless you have links or evidence to backup what you are posting.
Hello guys, I'm new on here so please forgive me if I make any mistakes. I have owned a ZTE BLADE S6 since May 15 and is great value for the price, however It couldn't be rooted after trying various methods and tools. But as of today I went on-line again searching how to root this phone. I can now tell you that the phone is now ROOTED!!! YES ROOTED! using KingRoot-4.1.0.249 release-nolog-20150521_105001.apk. I did try KingRoot before but without success, alas this updated version did the trick. Google KingRoot and click download, once the app has downloaded save to your sdcard on the phone, unplug from computer and and install app using the file manager on the phone once installed open app and follow prompts on the phones screen. You should now have a rooted zte blade s6, to confirm download rootchecker from playstore. PLEASE REMEMBER ALWAYS DO BACKUP FIRST! I do NOT take responsibility for any bricked phones using the above method you DO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
thanks and good luck hope it works for you.:fingers-crossed:
There ius no News inside, S6 and S6Plus can be rootet with this Version since 1,5 Month!
Hi! I really want to root my Blade S6, does this method still work??
Yeah, after you habe rooted your phone with kingroot, you can also usw the APP SuperSU me this APP removes kingroot APP and installs supersu + binaries. Root is still there!
Sent from my Blade S6 using XDA Free mobile app
I have Blade S6 (EU variant) and I tried Kingroot and then SuperSuMe and it worked first time. Then I got a message saying that there was a FOTA upgrade available. Downloaded the FOTA but wouldn't install because Rooted. So flash stock ROM (GEN_EU_BLADE_S6_V1.0.0B08) then downloaded and installed FOTA to go to B15 (GEN_EU_BLADE_S6_V1.0.0B15) retry KingRoot and it failed.
Tried EasyRoot, eRoot, BaiduRoot, KingoRoot and all failed.
As last resort installed MobileGo app on PC and it chugged away for about 20 seconds and phone now Rooted with SuperSu installed.
Just uninstalled the MobileGo app from phone and "Jobs a good'un" as they say.
Anyone having problems with adding shortcuts from Chrome to homescreen ? Wifi not connecting to certain 'open' routers and having to dial numbers twice before
pressing send ?
Will rooting my S5 help ?
Do you have a download link to the correct Kingroot for my S6 ?
Thanks
maxmix
How did you flash stock Rom
Did you use a flashtool?,if so where can I find it,I've read this phone is very easily hardbricked and before I do anything I need to know I can easily re flash the firmware should things go belly up,thank you in advance
