Hello, everybody! I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy Young s6310 and I want to root it. I have read about rooting, and about different methods of doing so, and I resorted to Framaroot, which didn't quite work. I tried many versions of Framaroot, and every single try had two outcomes: the Aragorn exploit didn't work, the Gandalf crashed (I tried restarting the app 5 or 6 times, but still it wouldn't work).
So Framaroot would be out of the picture. A quick mention: my phone had JB 4.1.2 as a default OS, and most of them come with GB 2.3.6.
I abandoned the idea of rooting it with Framaroot, and I saw another possibility in SRSROOT. Did anyone root his phone with SRSROOT? Are there any risks involved? (mainly in the rooting process, not what it implies afterwards) I have heard that this method is safe, because no flash is required, you just connect your phone to USB, press a button and it's done. Another method I found was the Unlockroot application.
What is the simplest method to root my phone? And the safest one, of course.

I have a Galaxy Nexus so I don't know many ways to root the Galaxy Y. But I have a solution to root it that almost certainly will work.
First flash or boot a custom recovery than flash the latest supersu.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA Premium HD app
Here's a CWM recovery for your phone:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2328771
It says there to "flash with Odin". Not sure how to do that, you might want to check Google.
I tried flashing a recovery file from Djalo96's FTP, and Odin doesn't recognize my phone while in download mode, and yes, I have the ADB and fastboot drivers. Odin detects my phone while in normal mode, but when in download, it doesn't show me anything. Sheesh, I never knew it was SO hard to root a phone. I heard something about unlocking the bootloader. I understand the concept behind this, but how do I achieve that?
P.S. I tried rooting it with Unlockroot Pro and SRSROOT and it didn't work. I suppose it's because of this bootloader issue.
Try universal root method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2403230 it worked on my S6310N

you have the samsung drivers do you? you don't need to unlock anything, i have rooted mine with the same guide, and it worked, so if you have installed kies or just the samsung usb driver it should work. you dont need adb or fastboot drivers, odin and samsung drivers should be enough
Try flashing update.zip for sgy.... Google it
JUST PRESS THANKS IF I HELPED...
i root my galaxy young with framaroot 1.6
just choose supersu and gandaf then root and reboot
Find the update.zip file for sgy and zip it using cwm. Also download the update-unroot.zip file in case you need to unroot later on
Press thanks button

I have found that any method u try to root this phone would not work. But thanks to my obsession I have found the only method that will work with this device... Thanks to #TendenciaAndroid, a friend on YouTube. The link is right here. xurl.es/metodo.root-6.de.7 Enjoy !:good:
Hi There,
Does anyone know how I can root an Acer Talk S (A1-724)?
It's still new but I'm hoping someone knows?
Thank you.
1. Try Framaroot or Towelroot app
2. If above do not work try on computer: Kingo Android ROOT, Root Genius, iRoot etc.
3. Best root method is flash Chainfire SuperSU (hxxp://download.chainfire.eu/supersu) in custom recovery like CWM, TWRP.
PS. When you find custom recovery sometimes bootloader prevent from flash it to your device and the only way is to unlock it.
Tried all the above root methods, still no luck...
Any other ideas? I really need to root this unit since it has a battery issue that constantly states 100% I never know when it's going to shutdown.
How to root Acer Iconia Talk S A1-724 for sure

Bonjour (Hello in french)
I tried so many many procedure during weeks... :crying: none of them were efficient !!!!.... until some minutes ago !!!! :victory:
KINGROOT is great !!!!
Go to the website of Kingroot : kingroot.net
Download the apk file : KingRoot-4.0.0.233-release-201505071219_105001.apk
Put it in your phone
(I was in USB debbuging mod., but I do not know if it is really necessary)
Install it
Run it
That's it !!!!
You can verify the result and the efficiency with some rootchecker ....
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
Puffy
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??
Rooted but faulty.
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.
I am working in China, I have just bought a Samsung Galaxy A8. How can I root it?
I have tried Kingoroot without success. I tried a few other one-click root PC apps, they all can't do it.
Let me just say I'm what you guys might call a noob, I don't really understand this stuff yet.
I mainly want to root the phone so I can install Google Play, Android phones in China are not set up for it unless you root the phone and configure it yourself.
I'm dead keen to do this, as it annoys me greatly that I bought a phone and am seemingly denied the regular usage of that phone.
So in my research I also heard about a thing called Odin which you can use to install a new rom on a Samsung phone. And I came across a Chinese website which gave info on a rom you can install on an A8 which after installation means the phone is rooted. I got Odin and the rom now but I'm clueless what to do next really.
I'm thinking the phone has to be rooted to use Odin on it anyway, am I right? And if I do install the rom, it will wipe the phone right? Lose all the data and apps I've installed on it, right? I don't want that to happen, is there a mway to secure the data, put it all back just the way it was beforer the 'rooted rom' is installed?
Like I said I'm clueless really, but I'm trying to proceed cautiously, I'd be grateful for any advice.
I think that I'm going to have the same problem next week, when I get my new Samsung Galaxy A8
Have you tried methods from this page?

In that link they say, that Frama Root App (Galaxy A8 is not on the supported devices list) worked for A800YZ in their case, but some users have had problems. Can I safely try it, without worrying that it could damage my phone? (Losing knox 0x0 is OK!)
Easy Root
so you can Easy Root almost any phone (maybe) with no risks , no data loss and absolutely no brick , follow the steps.
1_Make sure that your phone is plugged in and it have "USB Debugging" enabled ( you know how right ?)
2_Download Mobogenie for PC here >upload<<<<<.mobogenie.com<<<<</mu/release/Mobogenie_Setup_3.3.7_10002<<<<<.exe
"REMOVE THE <<<<<"
3_after the setup is done open it and click on "Please connect to your device"
4_after the device is connected go to "Toolkit" tab in the middle left and choose "One-click Root"
make sure you have internet access !
then you'll notice a small wide white status bar , that means you're starting the Root operation
5_after that a window will open with your phone model shown on it asking you rooting or no
6_click in Root and wait until it's done , then Congratulations on your safely Rooting
I hope i helped you
No you haven't helped at all to be honest, your post seems like spam.
None of these automatic one-click root programs can currently root the Samsung A8, if you had read above you would see I've already tried most of them, the best of them actually, KIngoroot, Framaroot, KIngroot, all ineffective. So you honestly think your little app can do it?
Is there anyone out there with real help to offer?

I am in a similar situation to you. I used Odin and the SpaceX A800F firmware however all goes fine until the writing of the new firmware begins. The log prints out the write has failed and then I am presented with a mandarin screen saying the device is locked out and I need to visit samsung.com/cn. I can reset the device and use as normal.
My quest to crack this continue and will let you know if I succeeded. 加油！
Having the same Issue
My phone died on me and I had to run out to get a new one. I forgot China has restrictive programs and custom OS to block anything they don't want.
I am trying to root the phone and hitting walls. I might to take to a shop and do it.
can i flash polish language to A8 ?
Disable android device manager in device administrator tab and go to download mode then flash spacex kernel. (Disabling will remove frp lock) I tried it's worked on my a800f

bro i have root file for Samsung A8 A800YZ and i have rooted my phone. if some one need the file, i need some donation before i can send the file. its easy to use, just flash it using odin. thanks.
So I finally managed to root A800F 6.0.1 thanks to @rs1981
Link for TWRP: http://www.4shared.com/get/oUigxM-6ba/TWRP_302-0.html
Downloaded supersu from:
Http://viid.me/qqB1fh
1. Make sure usb debugging is on and oem unlock is on
2. copy supersu file into phone
3. Turn off phone and go into download mode (vol down+home+power)
4. Connect to pc and flash TWRP file via odine (make sure you untick autoreboot)
5. When flash passes unplug phone and hold (vol down+home+power) immediately once the screen turns black switch to (vol up+home+power) even if you see the red error keep holding and TWRP will open
6. Flash the Supersu file that you copied from TWRP and wipe delvik cache then reboot to system
Supersu should be installed and you should have root.
Thanks again @rs1981

Title says it, apologies in advance for my noobiness on the entire topic of rooting. Got lucky and my previous device was supported via kingroot. Just looking for SuperSU permissions so I can enable my hotspot really.
This phone is through straight talk btw. I've tried Kingroot, iRoot, and quite a few others to no avail. I don't currently have internet due to me moving to the butt-crack of nowhere, Tried srsroot but seems like it interferes with USB tether and says it's successfully rooted but nothing happens upon reboot.
Anyone had any success with this? Thanks in advance.
Anyone?

CF- Autoroot might do it. I see that it works on other variants for the J7. Here's a link with CF-Autoroot and detailed instructions. Hope it works for you. Let me know how it goes.

Is this your first time rooting a device. after srsroot says successfully rooted did you verify root by going into playstore and trying a root check app.

I tried srsroot 5.1 multiple exploit and it said rooted. I open root checker and it said phone wasn't rooted. I also tried dr. Phone and they didn't have a working root method for j7 sky pro and i was desperate enough to try king root. None of these worked. The guy than mention c.f. auto root, thats for a version of the j7 that was released in other countries. Those variants of the j7 have exoynus processors and us version have snap-dragon processors so the root procedure might brick your phone.

Hopefully not too much longer before someone can root this thing... I'm also looking!
wondering if anyone has seen this video or tried it??
Code:

I can't open the link but all the videos iv seen on YouTube seems to be j700's and other variants not for s727v.l From my research the devices are a listed under samsung j models but the they all have different hardware, i.e. boards, processors, chipsets,. I did a cross referience with cf-auto root to try and find a divice with the same hardware and builds, there wasnt any other device with the same hardware that would suggest compatibility. Cf-auto root flashes a root file to your device and if it's not compatible you could completely brick your device
Hello, First of, you shouldn't have used kingroot whatever the situation was
However https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.inkwired.droidinfo&hl=en
download this and capture the system and device tray
Yeah but it was worth a shot. I figured if it worked I could replace it with superSu. I will post those specs In a few. When ever. I get time and free WiFi in going to try adv root
System and device
I'm going to try adb root method when ever I get the time

Verizon bootloader is most of time locked you can't flash it.
I may have a method for rooting s727vl. I can't test until I get home where I will have unrestricted data in case something goes wrong. I'm gonna keep this short and simple assuming everyone have
knowledge of using odin.
Developer option usb debugging oem unlock no frp or passwords
Download odin
Download latest superSu, this isn't the same as superuser in the playstore. It's used for rooting systemless root os. Yes that what marshmallow is.
After downloading supersu place it on your phones sd card
This is what I'm not sure on. Download clockwork mod RECOVERY. Zip , not the one in the playstore. And place on pc
Use odin to flash cwm to s727vl
Please refer to guide on installing cwm
After flashing cwm go to it in recovery mode and use cwm to flash the supersu zip file and reboot phone. It could take a few minutes but it should boot with root access. Or wait for auto reboot.
What I'm not sure on is cwm compatibility with s727vl, I couldn't find a yeah or nay on compatibility. Cwm say it's compatible with any android.
Hopefully this will work. Make sure u have your data backed up and your stock rom in case things go south. If anyone try this please let me know the result. I'm anxious to try it but I travel a lot and I can't afford to have data throttled by downloading everything I need and I can't risk doing this until I'm i get home.

I may have a method for rooting s727vl. I can't test until I get home where I will have unrestricted data in case something goes wrong. I'm gonna keep this short and simple assuming everyone have
knowledge of using odin.
Developer option usb debugging oem unlock no frp or passwords
Download odin
Download latest superSu and place on phone sdcard
this isn't the same as superuser in the playstore. It's used for rooting systemless root os. Yes that what marshmallow is.
This is what I'm not sure on. Download clockwork mod RECOVERY. Zip ,not the one in the playstore.
And place it on your pc
Use odin to flash cwm to s727vl
