[Q] Root ZTE Rapido Lte

I have the ZTE Rapido Lte from straight talk and was wondering if anyone has found a way to root this phone yet. I have tried program after program and no avail. I am on android 4.1.2. Please any help would be greatly appreciated.

ZTE Rapido
I also just got this phone. I have been religiously trying different root methods. None have worked out for me. I've run out of answers. I imagine there is a dev out there somewhere trying to release a new rev of Framaroot that would cover this phone. As of rootandroid.com this is not rootable of yet. I am not used to having an unrooted phone and I hate not having root. I hope someone else replies so we aren't stuck in the grip and mercy of the manufacturer.

I just got one today, I tried a bunch of methods as well to no avail. If there is anyone that can help I can pull an image from the phone so that others with more technical expertise might be able to go over it and find a way to root it.

More specifically,what kind of image would be needed? Any statistical info is available on the manufacturers website. In the case of a system image, what process and software would be needed? i will image mine if I have a procedure to follow.

I'm very interested in this myself. I just got one a few days ago and am already missing my rooted and ROMed Droid X. Please someone save us.

Same here I have tried framaroot z4root towel root root master root genius poot and none worked. Someone please help

Damn.
I just bought this phone for my Mom--her first smartphone since Verizon is the only thing in her coverage area. She's having trouble with the ringtones being too flat and not loud enough on the device.
I was hoping someone would've figured out a root for this beautiful little prepaid ZTE so I could somehow increase her ringtone/alert volume level. Maybe I'll poke around with the phone next time I'm near it.
So far she can answer calls and get on Skype

Solved!
I just rooted mine with king root apk. http://androidxda.com/download-kingroot-application or Google it. Make sure you download the latest version and if you don't get success on the first try keep trying it took me three tries. Please confirm if it works for you...

Has anyone got root for ZTE Rapido LTE Z932L?

Any progress?
Just checking in to see if anybody had any progress on rooting the Z932L.
I haven't seen any posts online on any site of people making any progress or even talking about this phone anymore, but it would still be nice if it was rootable.

[Q] Rooting an Alcatel One Touch POP D3

Hi everyone.
This is my first post, as I came here looking for help.
So, my wise mother decided to purchase an Alcatel One Touch POP D3 (4035X) (Android 4.4 KitKat), because it was cheap. The only problem is, it was cheap for a reason, it's slow as hell.
Okay, we can fix that by rooting the bloody thing and speeding it up a bit, but there's no root support. The programs I used earlier to root my devices support Alcatels C3, C5, and so on, but there's nothing for D3.
So, can you help me guys?
I would really like to root it, there's a lot of useless crap on it.

You can root your device using by checking out my guide on rooting this phone here and parsing package error either means that the app or apk is not compatible with your device or there's an error like it's corrupted or something. Speed problem can be fixed using setcpu. look for it on the play store

is there a way to root it now? are above mentioned method work?

Using Linux machine to Root the POP D3
Hi, I'm following this guide here http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software-hacking/discussion-t3002987 on how to flash TWRP on my Alcatel Onetouch Pop D3. I would like to test the recovery image file before I flash it.
I'm using a linux machine to run the Fastboot and ADB commands. The phone is running stock ROM and not rooted. First I use adb reboot-bootloader to get into fastboot mode. But once in fastboot mode, neither sudo fastboot boot twrprecovery.img or sudo fastboot oem device-info do anything. The program just hangs. Why is the program hanging? Do I need to first unlock my bootloader? How would I unlock it? Thanks

I managed to root my Alcatel 4037R only after performing a factory reset and immediately installing Kingroot, without going through the setup and adding a Google account

same here, a guy who works for kyocera told me that this model cant be put into recovery mode. Any help appreciated

I'm joining the request. As stated above, I've combed the web for anything on it with no success. Is this because of the fairly new release? Or possibly the trouble they're in because of Microsoft?
Either way I feel there should be an exploit out for it by now...

I too am looking fir an exploit for this device, and have scoured Google, Bing, and Yahoo, only to find nothing.

This model (Hydro Wave C6740N) CAN be put into Recovery Mode, using ADB.
Since Windows (edit: XP) USB drivers for the C6740N Wave are not released by Kyocera (yet), you (edit: can) use a Linux or OS X machine to connect using USB, to use ADB on the C6740N. (Since USB connection to C6740N "just works" on those platforms.)
I have used ADB on a Macbook running OS X to reboot my Hydro Wave into Recovery Mode, and performed cache wipe successfully. Also performed backups using ADB.
Kyocera advised (via email) that the Wave can be put into Recovery using Volume Down + Power key combo. Not true, the key combo does not work.
Kyocera also advised (via chat) that the Windows USB driver for any Hydro family device will work for the Wave. Also not true (I tried it). (Edit: I tried the drivers with Windows XP. It looks like the Kyocera Windows USB drivers may simply be USB modem drivers only, on any case.)
OS X or Linux using ADB is the ticket, no USB driver necessary. (Edit: But see other posts about using Windows 10 too.)
I'm also keenly interested in rooting the C6740N, but an absolute noob. The C6740N has a lot going for it, but a few shortcomings that root would enable resolving. If anyone knows of a way to root it, we would be most grateful to hear about it.

Tried about everything else too and nothing works

There's a working driver in Windows 10, but KingoRoot still fails. I almost tried King Root, but it's all in Chinese. I was going to try Framaroot but gave up when the download link resulted in an endless survey loop to win a free $100 Visa card (yeah....... GO F**K YOURSELF). I really want to root this thing. MetroPCS has this thing loaded full of bloatware and the Google BS I never use (google+ MUST DIE) is just eating storage space and what tiny bit of RAM is left. It's a nice phone but the inability to overclock the CPU, delete bloatware, and turn my 4GB SD Card into RAM really leaves alot to be desired.

The phone can be put into recovery using adb on windows.but that's as far as that goes.Cant find any way to root.Hope we get one soon.

So I think we should make a list of what root methods that did not work. That way we wont get hassled of what does not work

Kingo Root: FAIL
Towelroot: FAIL
Framaroot: UNKNOWN
King Root: UNKNOWN (Can't read Chinese)

Could you use a kill file that would reset all data including disabling some things

Root genius fails
King root fails
Kingoroot fails
Iroot fails
Framaroot fails
Towelroot fails
I'm thinking you gotta unlock the boot loader , but I can't put into fast boot mode or boot onto the boot loader for any adb fastboot commands to work. I can get to recovery in adb , and in the recovery menu I select boot to boot loader but it boots normally. I really want to root this thing!!

I just noticed that they're are any way to root the latest lolipop unless your on 5.0.2 ( BTW I checked kingroot and checked the request of our device and its almost to 1000

If he rooted the phone he sent the reply from, he's unfortunately in the wrong thread. The C6530N is the Hydro Life. We're trying to root the C6740N which is the Hydro Wave. Thanks for getting our hopes up.
On the other hand, if he's using the Hydro Life to post in the forum but has successfully rooted the Hydro Wave, we would all love to know just how you did it. My Hydro Wave is running worse than an Alcatel Evolve on the stock setup. We need root badly.

Speaking of root exploits such as Framaroot, see
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/0...droid_users_creates_hijackable_global_botnet/
Which links to the original exposé:
https://www.fireeye.com/blog/threat-research/2015/09/guaranteed_clicksm.html
...which notes that this Android botnet malware uses Framaroot and other root exploits. I wonder if some of these Chinese root exploit tools themselves (Framaroot, Kingoroot, etc.) carry a hidden malware payload.
....

Hi I've tried everything also but I also tried this program for tablets called zuse toolkit & it seems to get something through cause it reboots & optimizes or upgrade apps I'm not too sure which one but if someone out there knows how to modifie the way this zuse toolkit roots then maybe we have a chance of rooting this new phone oh & after it optimizes or upgrades the apps I check for root permissions and it still says it does not have root permissions so yea...

[Resolved] Alcatel A460G Rooting Trouble - a lost cause.

I've totally given up on this & explain in my last post, below.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To start with I wish to say a few things to be as clear as possible:
I have been visiting here for a couple of years already, but never registered because frankly - I was intimidated. I am not a dev, or a coder - I am merely a guy who enjoys tinkering a bit - and I have discovered how much fun cheap Android devices can be.
Lately a chain store has an Alcatel One Touch Pixi Pulsar A460G (TCL) from tracfone.
It has a nice 4" screen, Android 4.4.2 and better specs than my LG L34C - so I got it.
Searched extensively and the closest info I found was here at this link:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/andr...icial-t3193624
It seemed to root with Kingo Root - but only temporarily and its Superuser doesn't work very well at all.
Even tried the method here - but it starts & never completes:
http://androidxda.com/replace-kinguser-with-supersu
I really want to root this phone and would be happy even if I must use the app to re-install V4.3 from here:
http://alcatelonetouch.com/global-en...0126103150.rar
Also, there is a great bit of info posted here with a de-bloated stock ROM & recovery - but how can I flash it if it will not fully root and/or SU does not work ??
It seems most likely this phone has its bootloader locked by tracfone, and that maybe it is what stops it from rooting - but I do not know enough to be sure.
Any pointers to good help will be hugely appreciated.
Thanks.

Also...
I tried Kingroot on this Alcatel One Touch Pixi Pulsar (A460G, TCL, mt6582) running 4.4.2 .
It took a few tries (as suggested) and seemed to do...something - but not enough.
I very much hope some tool or something comes along soon that will allow full access to the file system on this phone as it really seems to be a very nice device.
Best Wishes to All.

Post what you can here as working via PM or email does not help anyone else facing the same issues.
Please Post. screenshots (or links to images), logs (from mdrt and spflashtool)(Just add .txt to the end if they do not have it) , The Android mt6582 scatter.txt that mdrt produced. :good:
Can you also please clarify your exact model as there seems to be different versions
Mediatek MT6572M (3G model)
Qualcomm MSM8909 (4G model)

This likely goes against the spirit of this place, but:
After quite literally wasting days trying to get past all the restrictions on this phone I've given up.
There are 2 major things which seem apparent to me from this experience=>
1 - Tracfone has made it impossible to root this phone - or at least so difficult as not to be worth it;
2- Kitkat is just plain nasty because of all the excessive restrictions it has.
End result here is that I have managed to get most everything I desired in another phone instead.
It is an Alcatel C1 AT&T Gophone.
It rooted in a minute, takes my CC sim card and instantly connects to my home Wifi.
After all this I've listed the A460G for sale, cheaply and if it does not sell that is OK as its charger & battery are the same as my new phone's and it can be used as an outside battery charger if/when I swap out batteries.
Conclusions:
- Avoid Tracfone...they and their products are just evil;
- Avoid Kitkat whenever possible or be prepared to fight it for any decent use a'tall.
Thanks for taking the time to read my query.

Hi,
Also got a Alcatel One Touch Pixi Pulsar A460G that I would like to root. I DL CPU-X and CPU-Z and both listed the Soc as a dual core 1.3GHz Mediatek MT6582.
Searching using "Alcatel One Touch Pixi Pulsar A460G" this was the only post I found.
While I have never Rooted any Android phone am willing to spend some time searching for other rooting apps and hope to be successful with some guidance from more experienced members.
Recently I have changed my search to "root MT6582" and have found a few posts that claim to be able to root any listed MediaTek hardware.

I think I tried that one, but cannot be 100% certain as my list got messed up at one point.
Is yours also a tracfone ??
Seems to me that most of my problems were because of how tracfone locked it down so badly.
I will be very curious to see what you post back about your device and your success; please do tell how it goes ??
Addendum=>
This "Graphical Auto Root tool" is something that instantly 'updates' then morphs into root genius, which did not work for my phone at all.
Thanks.

Hi vtsnaab,
Yes mine is a TracFone.
Searched using "Alcatel One Touch Pixi Pulsar" and all I found was TracFone.
"Seems to me that most of my problems were because of how tracfone locked it down so badly" "After quite literally wasting days trying to get past all the restrictions on this phone I've given up." "I will be very curious to see what you post back about your device and your success; please do tell how it goes ??" As previously mentioned, I have never done this so will keep searching until find a post that has been successful.
Wonder if this same phone is sold under different brand names or networks?
Since this is a Chinese Soc am guessing if anyone has been able to Root it the post will be in Chinese. Since I am not fluent, hope some others are!
Regards
Ken

IMO, rooting is not really optional; most pre-paid devices I've ever seen or used are too crapped up as sold & therefore rather useless unless they can be de-crapified after successful rooting.
With a tool that actually works fully - it is usually quite simple from those I have done myself.
The Chinese ones I've seen & tried usually pretty obvious once opened; they connect visibly, and it has been obvious, like having a big button to click on, then wait for success or failure.
A couple of rooting tools have recently updated, but right now I am not eager to waste any more time fooling around with the very pretty glorified battery charger called 'A460G'.
Maybe if it sits & gathers dust for a time here someone will have an ah-hah moment with one & it will get resurrected, else - no biggie for me for it to sit around.
Best Wishes KenithO in your quest.
Please post back here with what you may learn ??
Thanks.

A quick search led me to this thread here and kingroot seems to work but only temporarily. I'm guessing temporarily would mean after a reboot, the root is gone. Root the phone and make a backup of recovery.img and boot.img (kernel) with the Flashify app.
Common ways of rooting if one-click methods don't work are flashing a custom recovery and then flashing SuperSU. You will need to generate a scatter file for your device then make a backup with SmartPhoneFlashTool (SPFT).

Generally speaking as a non-dev, this site has become less & less useful as time has passed - and that 'evil' poster is helping nobody - just making board spam.
This used to be THE place to find the best info when one wanted to gain root access.
Since the makers have come up with ever worse & worse ways to lock down their krapware there is less & less hope to gain root access anymore, basically, to sum it all up as an over-simplified generality:
If Kingo or Kingroot will not work on most any post-Kitkat device, then that's that - and even if one of those DOES work, there's a strong likelihood of being stuck with their krapware because a great deal of the time the only 'cure' for it is SuperSU-Me, and it fails quite often.
But - not to worry...
Once there are landfills with huge piles of orphaned/broken devices I'm sure someone will come up with clever ways to make them into Big Macs or something else equally useful & toxic !!
For me - the Android journey has mostly turned into keeping a list of what is useless and/or a waste of time; Alcatel & Tracfone are VERY high up that list of things & companies to avoid.

As of today's date (11-24-16) I was able to fully root my Alcatel One Touch Pixi (A460G) TracFone, running 4.4.2 KitKat, in about 5 minutes using the latest version of KingoRoot (v1.4.8.2793) with USB Debugging (PC->Phone) after two tries. Everything seems to be working: SD read/write, BusyBox, etc. The only thing I wish I could figure out now is how to replace KingoRoot's featureless default SU app with SuperSU.
If KingoRoot doesn't succeed the first time, keep trying. The second, third or fourth try usually gets it on the more difficult devices. Hope this helps someone in the future.
EDIT: PLEASE DISREGARD. See my followup post below.

I regretfully recant my earlier statement above and sincerely apologize if I mistakenly offered any others false hope. I was fooled into believing my A460G was rooted because of the strange way it mounts internal & external storage. It seems that the A460G views the external SD card as internal storage & the internal storage as an external card which allows full read/write access to the external SD card out of the box.
Currently, I am still looking for a way to root this phone. AlcatelROOT.com has nothing whatsoever on the Pixi Pulsar (A460G), neither does Google or Yahoo it seems. I am open to suggestions.
EDIT: I also request that the forum mods remove the "[RESOLVED]" tag in the subject line of this thread as the A460G has not, thus far, been successfully rooted that any of us are aware of. Thanks.

In theory, if we had a custom recovery, we could just flash recovery and install supersu. Right?

sorry bud but you would still need to unlock the bootloader somehow before flashing a recovery which would mean you need to root it first or find an exploit

This phone can be rooted by first unlocking the bootloader as I did con a zte prestige phone locked to sprint/boost thanks to "farkin genius" Mr. Hroark13, the solución, it's on these forums. Afaik, it's an ADB command done while connecting phone to pc and it should work. Haven't tried it yet. Look up
"zte prestige temp root achieved xda".
It could be your ticket to rooting this bastard. Shame con you Alcatel and tracfone + bigbrother.
"This was found by me (Hroark13),I can not believe it was this easy
To turn off nand / system write protection on the ZTE ZMAX and maybe other phones
run this command in adb shell or terminal
reboot disemmcwp
to re-enable write protection issue this command
reboot emmcwpenab
I AM A FARKING GENIUS"
Massive credit goes to Mr. Hroark13
So basically use this command and then use ur favorite way to root and same as usual. Bada-boom Bada-bing permanent root. Restarted 10 times and never lost root.

Were you able to root the phone with kingoroot? I just want to root my phone and be able to use it for tethering using an app like 'wifi tether'.

Okay so I have searched high and low for information on how to flash this B**ch I can't find anyone who has done so successfully.
I used to have the (3 different) LG Realm it was literally one click root, didnt have to flash it, just Towel Root and go, I had the LG Tribute 2 which I ended up bricking.
This is my second OneTouch Elevate first one I dropped and ruined the left side of the touch screen.
I AM A NOOB WHEN IT COMES TO PHONES, PSP, PS3, X360 all jailbroken simple s**t, all I want is access to Xposed and all the bountiful pleasures that comes with, I have spent over 45$ on the RooT related apps (link2sd BusyBox etc) Enough Ranting
Phone: Alcatel OneTouch Elevate 5017b
Root: Yes Kiingroot (will change to su if needed)
I need help with
1: Getting into BootLoader
2: Information on successfully flashing this phone either CWM or TWRP
3: NOT BRICKING DEVICE IN PROCESS
I will happily pay someone for helping me with this via PayPal..
Thanks -Keith
