Dear all,
i have recently purchased Micromax A87. and now i am facing problems while running big apps like temple run etc. i got to know that its happening because my phone has Low Ram. then i tried to increase my ram by partition but for that i need to root my phone.
then i tried so many times to root my device but unsuccessful.
i am trying rooting process through below mentioned method :-
1. Download jdk 32bit only from here, Android sdk from here, Unlock root from here, adb_usb.ini from here and A87 drivers from here.
2. Install jdk
3. install Android sdk, after installing open sdk manager form star and select "android sdk platform-tools" and "google usb driver" unselect the rest, click install packages. After installing put the adb_usb.ini file in "C:\Users\(your PC name)\.android"
4. Now on your phone goto settings>applications>development>enable usb debugging and connect usb cable, it should say usb debugging mode and show a little green android icon on the topleft (if not then reinsert cable or re enable usb debugging)
5. Windows will detect the device, let it stabilize then extract A87 drivers to a location say "C:/drivers"
6. Now goto start type "device manger" open device manager, you wil find "android adb interface" right click upgrade drivers and lead it to a location of your extracted drivers, do the same with other devices you get with an exclamation icon. (dont worry if you dont find other devices, its fine)
7. Install Unlock root, open it and click root, it wil ask for the device select micromax A87 and Your done !!!
8. Press Thanks !! Have a nice day !!

If the exclamation icon appears it should root, make sure the driver instructions are followed, Device Not Found appears only when the adb drivers are not recognized.
problem while rooting micromax a87
Hi all,
First of all, i would like to thank every1, developers, moderators as well as guests for their informative posts posted in simple way so that noobs like me could also follow!!
I recently purchased micromax a87 mobile after lot of research as it is my first android. Knew it had low RAM but couldn't resist d other features at the reasonable price, and thought that I could tweak the RAM by rooting. I followed the steps at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1896665 :
1. Download jdk 32bit only from here, Android sdk from here, Unlock root from here, adb_usb.ini from here and A87 drivers from here.
2. Install jdk
3. install Android sdk, after installing open sdk manager form star and select "android sdk platform-tools" and "google usb driver" unselect the rest, click install packages. After installing put the adb_usb.ini file in "C:\Users\(your PC name)\.android"
4. Now on your phone goto settings>applications>development>enable usb debugging and connect usb cable, it should say usb debugging mode and show a little green android icon on the topleft (if not then reinsert cable or re enable usb debugging)

I had installed the "ADT bundle for windows", from the link given to download android sdk. After installing Android sdk, whenever i'm trying to run "sdk manager" from the start button, it opens a command prompt window giving d error msg : "Failed to execute tools\android.bat ; , error 2 The system cannot find the file specified." However, on checking manually, i could find d "android.bat" file present in d "tools" folder.
i uninstalled and reinstalled everything all over again(including jdk). Still, the same problem. However i could launch the sdk manager successfully by selecting "sdk manager" option from the "window" drop down list of the webpage window that opens up automatically on completion of android sdk installation. In the sdk manager, i selected only "google usb driver" option since the "Android SDK platform tools" was already installed during the android sdk installation. (Also, some other packages got pre-installed such as: "android SDK tools", "SDK platform", "ARM EABI v7a System Image" and "Android Support Library".) I left them as they were and installed only "google usb driver".
followed d rest of d steps letter by letter, yet in the final step, when I hit "root", and select my device, (MMX A87), unlock root gives d message : "your device is already rooted. Do you want to root it again?".
I checked d same using d app "Root Checker Basic" which then showed " Sorry! The device does not have proper root access." Still I went ahead with rooting and selected "yes" in "..Do you want to root your device again?" message by unlockroot software. Unlockroot showed "Rooting succeded/successful (don't remember exactly)" and i then hit "yes" when prompted by unlockroot to reboot the phone. However, for some reason the phone didn't reboot automatically, and i had to power it on using the power button. checked root access status again with "Root Checker Basic" app and it showed d same message: " Sorry! The device does not have proper root access."
I really love this mobile and want to utilise its full power by increasing the RAM. PLS HELP!!!
THANX AGAIN..

Hi dude,
I recently rooted my friend's mmx a87. I gone through all the instructions mentioned in this forum & other sites. The thing happened to me is different. I use windows 7 (64 bit), when I inserted mmx a87 with mass storage to my computer an autorun popup asks me to install the stock driver within mmx a87. I just ran through the installation progress by accepting the app run request. It took nearly 3 minutes to complete the installation. After I connected the mmx a87 in debugging mode and my system says unknown device in device manager. Then I used the driver package from mmx website for this a87, extracted the zip file to a location.
Now in device manager, go to the other devices (it has an exclamation mark) under that there'll be unknown device, right click on it, select update driver, select "let me choose" option, at "include this directly" section browse the folder where you have extracted the drivers from zip file and don't forget to check "include sub-directory", click next and it's all done. The unknown device will be now android adb device. Now do rooting using Unlock Root application with same procedure listed this forum.
Also please reply whether you have succeeded, so others can get benefited too.
Enjoy Folks!!!

A Simple click of the Thanks button would have been nice
If installing PC companion didn't help. Do this
1. Download and install latest version of flashtool
Link : http://androxyde.github.io/
2. Go to Flashtool Installation directory, then into drivers and run flashtool-drivers.exe
3. Install FlashMode drivers and Fastboot Drivers
You might get some warning about the drivers not being digitally verified, just continue with installation.
The above process basically installs all the required drivers, but windows still doesn't know which drivers to assign to which device. So we have to manually do it.
4. Connect you device (with USB debugging enabled and in MSC mode) and just let it install the required drivers, but it will say Android ADB Interface Drivers not found.
5. Open Device Manager, your profile name -> Other Devices -> Unknown Device/Android ADB. Right click, Update Driver Details.
6. Browse my computer manually -> Let me pick ..... computer -> Show All Devices
7. Wait for a while for it to list all devices.
8. Manufacturer : Google, Inc.
Model : Sony ADB Interface
9. One again you will get the Not Digitally Signed Error again, but this is the same driver we installed in the above steps, so nothing to worry.
10. Finish installing and your done!
11. Run "adb devices" in cmd to test.
Protip : Make Sure no other devices are connected.
I connected my Xperia device to my Linux Laptop and it installed everything automatically

Hi,
I have Minix Neo X5 mini with android version 4.2.2.
There is pre rooted custom rom around internet for now. I tried to root it by myself and saw that it already has root access. But it is not proper. So when i check with root checker so on, it says it is not rooted.
So professionals;
What is missing on my device? I already installed supersu with adb. And tried to install busybox from store but bussybox did not worked at all.
I believe that i don't know some easy details for you. But not easy for me
it's ok
i finally root my device. If someone need the needen files attached. Please follow instructions on bat file.
Select "Connect PC" after all reboots on device.
Device has to be connected as mass storage. USB Development has to be selected. And connect pc via usb. Select "Connect USB" on the device. Run TPSparkyRoot.bat file. Follow instructions.

Did you had Moborobo app installed in your PC? After every reboot i had to go to Settings > USB > Connect to PC.
PS: I dont know how is supposed to work that bat file, since it try to change SuperSU permissions without first copying it. So i add it (bold):
echo --- Installing SuperSU
adb push SuperSU.apk /system/app/SuperSU.apk
adb shell chown root.root /system/app/SuperSU.apk
I hope it work for you.

Thanks! but could please let me know what we can do extra in minix5 other than getting su access?
It worked
The bat solution worked on my minix, but i had to install moborobo first, and then everytime the minix was rebooting because of the script steps, going to the minix menu and activating the connect pc option again before clicking space bar for the next step.
