B-busybox
1-download busybox
2-install busybox and open it wait for some time and grand super su request
3-wait for some time busybox loads tweaks after loading completes there is a install button on bottom left corner click install then choose normal
4-busy box installs tweaks after compleation of installation sucess popup message comes
5-installation of busy box is sucessfull
note:some time the phone will reboot in between the busybox installation dont worry follow from the 3rd steps. this is because of the system folder read write error
C-reboot fix (sucessfull system read/write)
1-download reboot fix.rar
2-unrar it on ur pc
3-turn on usb debugging on ur phone and connect to ur pc(sony pc companion should b installed in ur pc)
4-run supersu.bat
5-follow the instructions on the pc screen
note:without sucessful busybox installation the reboot fix will not work try these reboot fix steps several times if u r not sucessful
D-swapping internal memory
1-download extsd2internalsd_xz.txt and scriptmanager
2-install scriptmanager
3-copy the .txt file to /data folder
4-open scriptmanager and select browse as root and grand supersu permissions
5-navigate to /data folder on scriptmanager and long press the extsd2internal_xz.txt and select open As... then select Script/Executable
6-then select su and boot and select save
7-suddenly the .txt file will turn to yellow colour turn off ur phone annd turn on u will see a swapped internal to external sd
note:if the reboot fix is not sucessful ur phone will constantly reboot after the 7th step then u have to uninstall the script manager to solve this
this is how i done all these thanks for all the all orginal developers who found these tweaks
I did everything, the only problem I faced was that the Part C. Reboot-Fix doesn't work and the device acts normal! no swap! Everything else works just fine.
Please specify:
1. Does the card need to be partitioned? Then in what types?
2. Do we need a custom ROM? If yes, which one? (links please)
Thanks a hell lot

BUMP!

You can partition via recovery n you need a app called link to sd to manage it

Hi and thanks for the Reply, how do I get into recovery for this Phone?

I suppose I have fiund the problem, I have incomplete OR Half Root, but as I run SuperSU.BAT onthe PC it doesn't detect the phone, the reason msy be that my PCC fails to connect to the internet. Even it doesn't tell me the name of my phone and no utility runs. Anybody faced such ****?

Hi!
I'm using Prestigio 5000 duo and this method does not seem to work for me. Mostly the script remains in the infinite loop, sometimes it said it completed however there was a mount - no permission error and no rotting was done.
I also tried MTK tools without any luck. Is there any other way?
My version is: PAP5000DUO.V20130419.V1.0.10
Please help! I'd like to create a backup (install CWM) and fix the jumping wifi mac address bug. (apply custom mac address). Rooting is needed.
Thanks!
It seems like I have JB 4.1.1. and this one works for 4.0 only. I'm looking at this solution ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2245259 ) but I haven't been brave enough to start it as I first tried to read back the recovery from the phone before flashing the new, it does not work (0% does not move). Also when I cat the proc/mtd file in abd shell it returns an empty list.

Now I was able to read back but cannot download the recovery: SP Flash Tool Error 8038. I have Prestigio PAP5000Duo.
I have MTK6577 scatter file (MT6577_Android_scatter_emmc.txt). Should I press upgrade instead of download? Will it work with only a single recovery file?
Thanks!
OK, I figured out it myself. The process did not work with the scatter file that was provided with the recovery image. Using MTKDroidTools it was two clicks to create one. (/prec/mtd was empty, that was a nogo).
Now it works. Unfortunately mac address changing does not work even with root. I get random every time. What a pity...

Emulator is a hardware or software used for duplication of behavior of main system to host system.
In short your pc is main system here and device is emulated system.
I think you should than turn on usb debugging and set device as media storage and try.
IF YOU ARE STILL UNABLE TO ROOT THEN TELL ME AND I HAVE ANOTHER METHOD FOR YOU.:beer: cheers.

And when I'm clicking on Yes, the download progress is remaining unmoved at 0%. plz help. Screenshot included.

YOUR PROBLEM IS SIMPLY THIS THAT PRE- LOADER DRIVERS FOR YOUR PHONE ARE NOT PROPERLY INSTALLED IN YOUR PC. That's why sp flash tools is unable to connect to your phone and flash recovery.and so there is no progress.
TO INSTALL PROPER DRIVERS GO TO THIS THREAD.
Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2370906
And i know that the method i suggested is to root jellybean but it works fine on ics also ( but you cannot root jellybean via ics method)
**After installing proper drivers try again the above mentioned method and it should work.
And regarding that message... it will always come because all the images required to flash a new firmware are not properly loaded.
Ignore it because you are after all not flashing a whole new firmware but simply recovery in your phone.
Best if luck.

I have already been into that link since even I thought that I'm having driver issues but my device is included under adb in device manager and when I tried to update the drivers, it said that the best drivers are already installed.

Ok My last suggestion.
Remove all the connected device(dongles, bluetooth device) from your comp except your mobile with Usb debugging on.
restart your comp.
now place it in C drive(just for caution) or if it was on C drive move it to another drive.
Now try to root if it doesn't root.
Try frameroot.

[Q] Rooting Xperia E3 D2203 (4.4.4)

Hello everyone... I recently updated my phone to 4.4.4 via flashtool. It's obvious that it's unrooted now as it's on stock kernel. Is there any chance that anyone is going to make a custom kernel to root D2203 variant with 4.4.4 installed?? Plz let me know asap. Badly need root. Storage issues. Gotta need Link2SD for moving apps and removing bloatware for storage restoration. And it's a root demanding app as you know. Thanks.

Does this:
install "MiniTool Partition Wizard Free" then creates two partitions.
VERY IMPORTANT, defines the 2 partitions as PRIMARY.

Are you sure that your system is prepared to mount system as r/w?
Are you using the Universal init.d to achieve the full root?

Ya I using universal init.d. For now I have dropped the idea of creating partitions. There is no cwm kernel in my system. Maybe Root isn't working properly. I'll wait till someone develops a kernel for D2203 (4.4.4). that way root will work normally. Till then I'm just using it to convert some of the system apps to user apps and moving them to sd card. things are going fine for now. Got 1.4 gb free in internal. So let's wait and see if someone finally releases the cwm recovery for my model. Thanks btw.

I have 4.4.4 on D2203 with full root and without cwm. I have the "Link2SD Plus" working perfectly without any requirement of cmw!
My D2203 has the boot loader unlocked, does not have any cwm recovery installed, and only use the "Universal init.d" to run the "SYSTEM MOUNT FIX" so you can use without restriction "Link2SD Plus!
If you are not able to create links to the second Partition is because you are doing something wrong!

Ya you're right. I am probably doing something wrong. could you guide me thru the process which u applied for gaining system -rw ?? becoz I followed this guide
Fixing ability to mount system as r/w for D2203,D2206,D2243 (LTE)
THIS IS REQUIRED TO INSTALL XPOSED OR LINK2SD OR OTHER APPS WHICH WRITE ON SYSTEM
UPDATED
important - goto settings=>about phone tap on build number until it say,s no need,you are already a devloper. Then go back and open developer options and enable usb debugging
Step 0 - install BusyBox installer and Universal Init.d
Step 1 - Download this SYSTEM MOUNT FIX.zip and extract and run runme.bat
Step 2 - Now Open Universal Init.d Change Switch From Off to On
Step 3 - Now reboot and install busybox. (if busybox install it mean success and if it fail then ask me about it)
Now you can mount system as rw!!!
And according to it, I did everything written in it. Did i do some step wrong?
What all do you do in Universal Init.d? Because I only turned the switch on after runnnig the batch command in the computer from the post of vinay.. the developer. So if you could plz guide me thru the steps which you took after installing 4.4.4 and Superuser. Coz I'm also using Link2sd plus . I suppose that size of the SD card doesn't matter right? Because I'm making partition of 1 gb out of a 2 gb SD card.

Does the following:
1 Flash any firmware (18.5.C.0.19 UK)
2 Download and copy to the root of the sd card SuperSU.zip
3 Connect you phone to your pc in Fastboot mode (Turn off your phone and connect usb while pressing vol up)
4 Click on SELECT KERNEL TO FLASH KERNEL CHOOSER WINDOW will open now click on *.sin and change it to *.img Now Select BOOT_D2203_4.4.2.img(Click Here To Download BOOT_D2203_4.4.2.img) and select open KERNEL WILL BE FLASHED
5 Now disconnect USB and press power button on phone. Phone will vibrate with purpule notification light press vol up and down untill you see CWM recovery.
6 Select INSTALL ZIP IN CWM
7 Select 2nd option which is chose zip From /S..... now navigate to UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.zip and press power button.
8 now go back to first page and go to Advance and choose Power Off option --> Fix Root and then connect usb press vol down.
9 You will see Flashtools say Device Connected in FlashMode Now click on Thunder Button.
10 And select FLASH MODE and Click OK Select Firmware and in Wipe Menu Remove mark From CACHE AND DATA and in Exclude Menu Mark All but not Kernel. Now Click on Flash button.
11 After Flash Remove USB and Boot Device.
After all this, we only have half "root"!
Now we get the full root!
IMPORTANT- goto settings=>about phone tap on build number until it say,s no need,you are already a devloper. Then go back and open developer options and enable usb debugging
Step 1 install Universal Init.d
Run the Universal init.d (it is normal for error!)
Step 2 - Download this SYSTEM MOUNT FIX.zip and extract and run runme.bat
VERY IMPORTANTE! RUN MULTIPLE TIMES THE "RUN ME" TO STOP APPEARING ERROR MESSAGE! (I RUN 3 TIMES!)
See the attached image
Step 3 - Now reboot and install busybox. (if busybox install it mean success and if it fail then ask me about it)
If you followed all the steps correctly should appear in the list of scripts "Universal init.d" something called "NS".
Good luck and excuse my English.

Is this what you needed? I extracted the kernel.sin file by opening the ftf file using winrar. I have attached it.

[TUT][ROOT+CWM+GAPPS]InFocus M512 Root, CWM and GApps tutorial.

So there is a bargain chinese 4G phone called the 'InFocus M512'.
The problem with it is that it comes without Google Apps and also is not rooted (sometimes is). Also it does not have CWM Recovery.
So this quick tutorial shows you how to root, install CWM Recovery and install google apps on the M512.
I'm not responsible for any damage
Rooting:
Method 1
1.Go to settings>>Security>>Check Unknown Sources tap OK.
2.Download this file.
3.Install
4.Run and tap 'get root' or somthing like that.
5.Delete KingRoot and some chinese app, but DO NOT DELETE KingUser!
6.Done!
Method 2
Flash CWM Recovery using the 2nd method from this post. If you have rooted usign the first method use method 1 from that post.
Download UPDATE-SuperSU-x.xx.zip (i used 2.46)
Reboot into CWM.
Select Install zip>choose zip from /sdcard>select UPDATE-SuperSU-x.xx.zip, press power button
Reboot now
GApps
1.Download this zip file
2.Reboot into CWM.
3.Select Install zip>choose zip from /sdcard>select the file, press power button
4.Reboot now.
How to delete KingUser (only if you have SuperSU and it is working)
Download ES File explorer, enable root explorer, go to /system/app and delete KingUser.
So this is how to get root, cwm and gapps on the m512.
First Method no good for me
I put the kingroot file in the adb tools folder and used the install command. It wasn't clear from the above whether the phone needed to be in recovery or some other mode so I tried a few times, in recovery mode and again just connected as an mtp device in the normal way. Either way the result was the same, it said "Invalid APK File: KingRoot.......".
I will have a go at the CWM thing next.
I am still on the 103A ROM that the phone came to me with - I have been trying, on and off, without success to update and then root it , for months.
When trying to flash an update ROM it tells me that the update package has unexpected contents and the there is an error in the update file and then says "Status 7". You can read all about my lack of success on this forum under the threads M512 started by Galaxy Why.
I'm trying, I really am....
Let me start by saying thanks for making the effort to post what you know and so to help people like me, however.
I tried to follow the method 2 (as I don't have root) from your other post (the one linked to above with the words "the 2nd method from this post" but got stuck.
Your instructions in normal my comments in italics.
Method 2: (No root)
1.Connect your phone via USB to your PC. OK
2.Enable MTP. OK
3.Enable USB Debugging. Settings>Developer Options> tick USB Debugging. OK
4.On your computer, 2 drives will appear: One of them is a CD-Rom which contains all drivers. OK
5.Click on that CD-Rom and it will install all drivers. It doesn't, or it may do, but what it definately does is asks me to put a disc in the drive and tries to do some kind of dir_all in windows explorer - I would post a screenshot here but this page only allows URL's- and I'm not sure how to go about that.. but I think I've managed to upload a screenshot....
After waiting for 5 minutes or so to see if something would happen as the green progress bar ground to a halt but the busy circle continued I hit the cancel button on the "please insert a disc dialogue" and then ploughed on anyway ....
6.Plug phone in again. Now this had me confused, I assume you mean unplug AND THEN plug the phone in again.
7.Download the .ZIP file and extract it somewhere. Which/what zip file do you mean exactly?? I couldn't get past this.
8.Click on _install_cwm_6.0.5.1.cmd
9.Your phone will ask you something, just tick "always allow from this computer" and hit OK.
10.Your phone will reboot into DL Mode, then it will reboot again.
11.Recovery is installed.
It's late and I'm tiring so sorry if missed something obvious. Any advice?

Looks like you don't have a adb driver
And... why do you want to root your phone? Installing CWM is not root required.
M512 comes with a unlocked bootloader, just boot into bootloader and you can flash anything you like.
I made a customized stock rom based on version 2280, bloatwares removed and Google Play framework included. (You can download the apps back from Play Store, if you needs those)
Now the phone has 2.09GB free spaces :victory:
If you were interested on it, I can upload it and give you a link.

Flash this ROM by a "3rd party recovery" = CWM
I just wonder how many of you are still using this device?
