Req: Root method for Lenovo A1107 - Miscellaneous Android Development

I have been rooting phones and tablets since back in the early days of Android's infancy however, I'm a total noob when it comes to being active in this community and so I apologize for any improper etiquette in advance. I've been trying to figure this out for hours and can't find anything on how to root this device. If anyone could please help me I'm trying to root the Lenovo A1107 (Android 4.0.4). Thanks.

It may not work on the newest version but it won't hurt to try it works on my a107 with ICS and the devices seem identical. Give a1_rooter.zip a try.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S III SCL21

Hello,
I started a new thread to try and gain some more experienced attention. the other two threads within this massive forum don't have any real support in the way of actual, knowledgable developers.
There are apparently a lot of people that have the AU/KDDI version of the Galaxy S III. (SCL21). There is apparently not, however a lot of support for it. If anybody has any resources or advice for rooting/moding I'm sure we'd all be very grateful.
Thanks in advance,
And happy droiding!
Bump! I know a lot of people that has this phone but there really no support on it.
I'm willing to give you something to buy your beer for your hard work.

Have you by any chance tried Bin4ry's Root Restore method? I used this to root my father's Kindle Fire HD several weeks ago, over a remote internet connection no less, and it works a charm. I can't post links yet but do a search for "Root MANY ANDROID" and you'll find it. If you do try it, you'll probably want to run it as an Administrator, I think that's how I had to do it. There have been several posts from others in that thread that have rooted their S3 variant with this. Good luck!
Hi guys,
I just got the AU SCL21 about two weeks ago. I agree, I think it's really strange that even on the Japanese forums, there is very little info on rooting this model. From everything I've found, the Japanese sites also both say it's OKAY to root using the Docomo SC-06D recovery and Superuser zip and that it's NOT safe to use that same method. Really odd, conflicting messages...
I just tried using Bin4ry's Root Restore*version 30 with the latest Samsung ADB drivers and after the ADB restore and phone reboot (while still connected to my PC), the command prompt in Windows says that Superuser failed to be installed. :/

Hi, sorry to say but it appears to be a bit of a white box brand so it's unlikely to gain support due to it being unknown and present in many variants of the device.
You would be better to look around for ROMs that support specific components in the device in order to have better luck as their will be similar devices using the same components with one of them probably having a ported ROM such as CM
Hope I could help and good luck

root genius worked for me literally just rooted a few minutes ago took me forever to find one that worked
http://www.shuame.com/en/root/
Root Genius worked for me also
Lot of applications that require root access work fine. Now, how do I do a Nandroid backup? Also, anybody know tried a custom ROM on this device? Hesitant to "just try it" until I have a full Nandroid backup.
I have one of these. Got it for $59.95 on sale via Staples website. A curious thing is that none of the preloaded apps show under My apps and the Store won't automatically update any of them. I had to look them up on the Store and install the latest versions.

[Completed] Guidance for undertaking a new root

I have owned a ZTE Axon Pro for about 5 months now and no root has come out for it. I'm very upset with the software updates that ZTE is pushing for my device and would like to be able to flash a custom ROM but no root is out for the device as of now. I have a fair amount of experience with Linux and programming and would be interested in undertaking the root myself, but also don't want to brick my phone on the first try. I also have no idea where to even get started and was hoping for some pointers. It'd be great to bring value to my beautiful phone and others that have the same phone.

Lacking Discussion on VT85C "A old Videocon Tablet"

I own a videocon VT85C tablet. Its roughly 5 to 6 years old. This thing has 1Gb RAM.
I have rooted this device thanks to XDA team, however, presently I would like to flash a custom ROM on it.
I have tried official TWRP app but my device isn't listed on it. Even tried with clockworkmod and flashify but couldn't find a working thing.
I don't want this device to get bricked.
So basically I wanted help regarding some discussion on this device. A help would be very much appreciated.
Yes I am a new registered user here, so might be getting some difficulty to adapt to this environment. Thank You. Please help

Unroot Query

Hi all,
Apologies if this seems like a simple question, but I'm having an issue with my Nokia 7 Plus and I'm not sure if anyone else has come across it. To the best of my knowledge, I have never rooted or attempted to root this phone. However Microsoft Intune Company Portal is telling me it's rooted (or partially rooted).
My question is whether there is a way to unroot that doesn't involve reflashing a stock rom? The only unroot instructions I have seen have been to flash stock roms, which I'm willing to try, just unsure if this will solve the problem since I'm running stock Android One, updated to the latest release.
Many thanks for any help or thoughts you may have!
EDIT: I just saw the questions/answers forum now... apologies, if someone could please move or delete this I would greatly appreciate it.
