How to root Huawei Ascend ii (M865c) on Straight Talk - Miscellaneous Android Development

For about two months I have been scouring the web looking for a way to root my wife's Huawei Ascend ii (M865c) from Straight Talk. I wasn't getting anywhere. I looked and tried any exploits I could find: zergrush psneuter rageagainstthecage motofail gingerbreak. Finally I stumbled across a new one called poot that was developed by a genius over at phandroid, giantpune. I created a walkthrough for rooting this phone using his method, however, he still deserves all the credit. You can find my guide by clicking on this link
http://androidforums.com/ascend-2-all-things-root/641614-finally-rooted-m865c-straight-talk.html
In overview, you need to download poot.apk and ministro.apk and install both.
Then open poot.apk, it will download some needed libraries.
Then select the button to root the phone.
You will then need to reboot.
That should be it.
If you are interested, here is his original thread, which was for the optimus elite, http://androidforums.com/elite-all-things-root/612914-optimus-elite-root-apk.html

[Q] where did visionary go?

now that we have a great "one click" root for the T-mobile G2. and im finally confident enough to go through and do the root for the phone. and lone and behold visionary is taken off the android market. NOT COOL! and i tried supposedly downloading the app, and drag and dropping it over to my phone. but i must have done something wrong because i can not find it in the apps. im new to this whole android rooting thing. and have had a little experiance with jailbreaking the iphone in the past. but this is a totaly different animal and i dont want to screw it up. so please guys any help? i need a how to for dummies at this point.
Update: Temporarily removed the r12 download link while a couple of people on XDA fix a non-booting issue
Info can be found on the modaco website, sorry cannot post the link since my account is not verified yet.
you can find info on it here: http://android.modaco.com/content/t...350/10-nov-r12-test-visionary-one-click-root/
since you're not using the market to install it you will need HTC Sync to install it on your phone OR put it on your SD card and use a file manager like ASTRO File Manager to browse your SD card for the .apk file and install it from there

[Q&A] Root Motorola Defy

A: Some people in the Root Motorola Defy thread have been having trouble rooting their devices lately, I have a suggestion that might work for them:
Download SuperOneClick, either version 1.7 or 1.8.
Extract the SuperOneClick archive and locate the psneuter executable (in the root directory for 1.7 and under Exploits for 1.8).
Follow the instructions form Page 1 using psneuter in place of exploit.bin.
Q: Given that I don't have 10 posts yet, is there a better way to make this suggestion than posting in the Q&A forum? Also, if someone would be so kind as to relay this to the article in question..

[Q] Need root for Lg Escape

Dear All, I need to root my AT&T lg escape..its is updated to the latest p870 v10i. i found this thread for lg escape rooting but it is only for previous v10c and v10f. i also tried to update rooting script but i was failed due to permission issues on /data folder.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=31963526&postcount=532
i tried several other methods incl. bin4ry's root method & superoneclick but it doesnt root. sorry for my bad english.
Need root for Lg Escape
+1
Thought I would share with everyone how to root Version 10i of the LG Escape.
How to Root Version v10i
Run LG Spectrum ICS Root script (Windows version) Batch file.
Takes about a minute
http://www.sendspace.com/file/jtcbmy
guys guys!!
I was watching this video and downloaded the rar file on the comments! I have my Escape rooted and rolling.
I can now access the /data/data files for my pleasure.

yes, it is in spanish. the steps are (assuming you already downloaded the drivers for android):
1) enable usb debugging.
2) set the usb connection to "PC Software"
3) enable unknown sources Settings>Security>Unknown Sources
4) Download the rar from the video link (you can run a security check to see if it is safe if you dont take my word for it, because i was leery at first as well about downloading from strange places, but i did and it passed)
5) unpack the rar and open it
6) Once the rar is open, click "Run.bat"
7) follow the script, the video has visual on what to do on the script
8) Use root checker or open an app that requires root to see if it is rooted.
BY ALL MEANS, dont hesitate to challenge a fresh new user on this site,
you shouldnt take just anyone's word for anything, but i can only be so honest.
After days of research, I found dud programs and even threads on this site that didnt work for me.

^ on this thread, this guy gave us a short description that he would finish his guide, but never did. After a struggling array of links and searches, I found this video, just before i turned it down around three minutes in, I looked at the comments. A large number of people, from this or last year, said it worked. Sure there were failures, but MINE IS ROOTED, AND IM FRIGGIN HAPPY.
To be clear, my phone is the LG Escape P870, with the android version 4.1.2
Edit: on another note. When i tried other rooting software such as Bin4ry or SRS Root, when prompted to click 'restore' the restore process would begin, and then immediately end afterward, like it just canceled the restore altogether. The software would either close out without a root, or be stuck in a never ending loop; thus, i will have to reset my phone and laptop to try again, with no avail.

[Q] Batch file won't open

Hi All, new to forums. No one else seems to have had this problem, or am I trying to open it wrong? I try to d-click the batch file runme.bat to get root access but it won't open as the message says it's not supported on LG-Optimus L7II dual running Android 4.1.2. It opens in Win 7 so it proves that the file is OK. Hope I get some info on this, thanks.
Hello,
.bat files are Windows/DOS batch scripts that does not (generally) work on Android.
Most likely you have to run that .bat file on the Windows computer with your phone connected.

Thanks heaps Cyrus_pc, Had to use Cydia Impactor a few times to reroot, worked perfectly. It gained root but Root Checker from Jacksoft labs
said no root. So did search on xda forums (can't Remember thread to thank them) and used terminal to type SU and check root(thanks). Also, used Root Checker by joeykrim and that does work.
If I can indulge a bit about other problems with my phone model LG Optimus L7 II Duo P716, this may help others. I first wanted root access to use Titanium Backup and Rom Manager before using LG update to see what was new and roll back if needed. Bad move, Rom Manager wouldn't backup or boot to recovery mode just kept Factory resetting and loosing settings(what a pain).
Fix this from xda thread from Blackzair with (CWM Recovery on LG P&15 L7 II Dual) boothack+recovery.rar to load Gscript.apk. Got into recovery even though as he said screen is upside down.Tried to load a CM 10 but it didn't take, will have to check boot image version.
Thanks again to everyone

[Q] Samsung Galaxy Trend 3 (SM-G3502) Rooting Help

So.. After a whole week trying to find a succesful way to root this f***ng phone, no success has been found.
I couldn't find this phone's section on XDA so I'm posting this on the general section...
If anyone could give me the link to the section, it would be very appreciated.
This is the phone:
Samsung Galaxy Trend 3 - SM-G3502C
Android Version: 4.3
Build Number: JLS36C.G3502CZCUAOD1
I have tried a number of on android apps, windows software, and even tried rooting manually by adb and linux. But couldn't have a single successful attempt or any signs of progress made...
Can anyone help me out with this phone, the reason I need root is because this is a chinese phone and doesnt have Play Store installed, and I need root access to install Play Store on /system/apps/ and give R+W permission...
Apps tried:
Saferoot
Kingo App Root
iRoot (vRoot/Root Master)
OneClickRoot
TowelRoot
A bunch of .bat rooting scripts
Baidu in-app Rooter
Rooting through ADB (everything was going fine until I had to access Ubuntu's Nautilus, to move the files to /system/ but the device wouldn't mount by MTP on download mode, and I couldn't access the files) link to the guide followed: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2684210
Any help would be truly appreciated, and If there is a way to install play store without the need of root access, or even a good replacement for play store would be really good.
Also, I have 0 experience on custom recovery, so, If any developer out there could create a custom recovery for this phone, I could give them the recovery.img from this phone and modify it to work on this phone. If that's the way it works, idk XD.
P.D. I already opened a thread on XDA-Assist but sorry, I had to move it, I saw that every post on that section had little views and replies and I was worried that this would happened to me on that section to me too. I'm ok if I need to erase it from there but I would like to leave it there for some time if there is any replies.
Link to the thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/xda-assist/samsung-galaxy-trend-3-sm-g3502-rooting-t3106250
Hi, still you right~ looks like your are really can't to wait to root your device. Just try KingRoot, we just release new version which can root device from Android 2.x to 5.0. I can't give you promise, but just have a try~ good luck
