Let's start with the beginning.
I rooted my phone, installed a custom rom and then installed again the official rom. I updated to official ICS and the phone tells me that it's still rooted. I have the Superuser app that didn't work. In the app lists it doesn't show any apps. When I am using a root needing app it doesn't ask me to gain root access. I tried to root it again but when I am using the "fastboot oem unlock" command it is telling me "waiting for device" (the phone is in bootloader. The bootloader says that it is Unlocked).
Because that didn't worked i tried to enter into the recovery menu from bootloader but this didn't worked either. It shows me a very short animation (something like a warning) and then it goes black and the touchsensitive buttons remain bright.
I tried to flash the recovery with cmd but the same problem.. waiting for device.
I factory reseted the phone but still the same trouble.
I've seen a lot of people with this problems.. but only one of them..if superuser doens't work you need recovery to fix and if recovery doesn't work you need cmd to solve. the bootloader doesn't respond to the commands sent from cmd and I can't solve any of these problems. (the adb drivers for usb are installed)
Can anyone help me to solve this please?
you want to be using: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Download the latest 5.0.2.0 CWM and flash it through terminal. You want to do this on the bootloader menu (where it says bootloader unlocked) while the usb is connected. Now straight away go into recovery and flash the latest superuser.zip. Now reboot, su should work fine and make sure the superuser app is updated. Rename /system/etc/install-recovery.sh and reflash CWM (Rom Manager or through fastboot again).
Now you're rooted and will have a permanent recovery.

Hi,
I hope someone can help me out. I recently updated to 4.4.1 via Clockworkmod. The update worked fine but now I'm unrooted. I still have the SU app, it just doesn't do anything. Is there a way to remove it without rooting again? If not what's the easiest way to root the device (bootloader is unlocked and currently have stock recovery)? The first time I rooted the bootloader was locked and the process I used unlocked and rooted in the same step.
Thanks for your help!
keep the app. reflash a custom recovery, then flash the latest supersu in your custom recovery. there, youre rooted again.

flashing a recovery, a rom, a kernel, and a mod doesnt require root. the only thing that requires root are apps that need root to work.

Tried sideloading 4.2.2 before I rooted again and can't get my phone recognized in sideload. Now I can't even restart my phone. Tried using a different usb port and cable and nothing. I'm reading the only way to restart my phone is to wait for the battery to drain. Is there anything else I can try? Thanks.

What do you mean you can't restart it? Is it frozen? Try holding down the power button for about thirty seconds. It seems to be the equivalent of removing the battery.

Got it. Thanks. Any idea why it wouldn't recognize the device? I downloaded the driver package from SDK manager and tried to update from the extras folder but it said my package was up to date. The only weird thing is the driver is showing up as Samsung Android phone in device manager. I tried uninstalling, restarted the computer, reconnected my phone and it still says Samsung.... Again, any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Maybe read my edit below first. What follows is the manual way for doing this. There's a program that'll do all of this for you if you don't want to mess with this.
Try installing the Google Android USB drivers.
http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html
To install the USB drivers, first boot your phone into the bootloader (hold volume down and the power button while the phone is off). Then go into your device manager in windows. You'll either see something flagged with some yellow icon or you'll need to find some entry that says something about Android or your phone. Right click on that and hit update drivers. Unzip the latest_usb_driver_windows.zip somewhere and then point the driver updater at that folder. It'll find and install drivers. Voila, fastboot should now recognize your phone.
Then follow the steps for getting into the bootloader, flashing the custom recovery, and then flashing superuser from the custom recovery.
Edit: OR, just use the Nexus Root Toolkit http://www.wugfresh.com/nrt/
It has an option for installing drivers, installing the custom recovery, etc. It's very straightforward.

Thanks for your help. I can definitely try the Nexus root Toolkit but I'd really like to get comfortable doing it manually.
The issue I keep running into is with the drivers. I uninstalled the drivers, installed them again while in the bootloader and it said successful (shows up as Android device > Android Bootloader Interface). Then when I enter recovery and select adb..., device manager lists it as an "Other Device > Nexus 5" with the yellow triangle. I try again there to update the drivers from the same folder that they installed in via the SDK and I get an error that the device driver software can't be found. I have usb debugging mode checked and selected always allowed for this computer. I've tried "adb devices" and nothing is recognized. Any thoughts?

Did you flash a custom recovery while you were in the bootloader? I'm don't think adb works in the stock recovery, but I could be wrong.
As long as you have the bootloader working, that's all you really need. You just need to flash the custom recovery. Then put some superuser.zip onto your storage, boot into the recovery, and flash it.
As for the driver issue, I only did what I told you. If doing it manually didn't work, I'd try the toolkit.

I think the whole point of sideloading is that you can have everything stock if that's what you want. I'm going to try the toolkit because I've tried and tried and can't get the sideload to work. When the phone is turned on I can type "adb devices" and my serial number comes up. I can eneter "adb reboot bootloader" and the phone restarts. It's just when I get to recovery it tells me "device not found". Thanks again for your help and if you or anyone else has any suggestions I'm all ears.

Hmm, from your reply, I'm not sure if you're getting into recovery or not. There's the bootloader and there's recovery, they're separate things. Once you're in the bootloader, you choose to go into the recovery. Then, in the recovery, you choose to "apply update from ADB." Then you issue the adb sideload command from your computer.

Thanks but that's what I've been doing and what's driving me crazy. ADB works when the phone is on. It recognizes my device and reboots on command. I get to the bootloader where it still recognizes my device. Once I select recovery, the phone comes up with the yellow triangle in device manager and I can't sideload after I select the option. A friend of mine who;s sideloaded before watched me do it and was just as confused. Any other suggestions?
**Update**
So for some reason the driver package installed via the SDK manager doesn't have the Nexus 5 "hardware id". I needed to add these three lines in the .inf file within the usb drivers folder:
;Google Nexus 5
%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_D001
%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_18D1&PID_D001&REV_0232
One I added those and updated the driver I was able to sideload.
Thanks again for your help
I got root on my Leagoo Lead 3 using the following method a user had for his Leagoo Lead 1.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=54321112&postcount=3
Edit: skip the first step and only proceed to step two. Your device will try to boot into fastboot once or twice. When that's done, open mtk uncle tools on your device and then head into engineering mode and click root in the user/root menu.
Hope this helps anyone who needs root.
Root failed for me
Hi rukusx7
In my case it has failed... can you help me, please?
My phone had installed X applications, google account... prior to root...
Fisrt Step: Bootloader unlock...finish OK
When I run button of Bootloader unlock my mobile init in mode fastboot, make tasks and finish ok and mobile still in fastboot mode
Next Step: KingoRoot.... finish Failed.
When I run kingoroot, my mobile is in mode fastboot ¿it's ok?...make tasks and after a long time finish with failedMy sencond attempt is to run kingroot with my mobile ON as usual but kingoroot failed too..
I think my problem is the step 1. How can I check the step 1 is correct?
Thanks in advanced for your help.
I really messed up with explaining myself on that. I really have NO idea how any of that root guide worked for me.... I completely omitted the first step. I'm truly sorry if my misinformation has caused you any troubles.
Start sony bootloader unlocker and run it with your phone connected.
It will restart your phone to fastboot and then it remains idle.
Keep your phone plugged in, switch it off and boot manually into the fastboot (power + vol up)
From here the unlocker will proceed unlocking.
Step 1 done.

I selected root but nothing happened, it continued to say "checking root status", "connecting to device" and it took lot of time so i closed the program to start again but then i had another problem. It didn't want to connect with device, it tried and tried but without success.
-- my steps --
- When i started Kingo Android Root for first time it downloaded HTC driver so i downloaded latest driver HTCDriver_4.2.0.001.exe ( [DRIVERS] Latest HTC Drivers [4.2.0.001] )
- I rebooted the PC ( now i don't have unknown device in Device Manager)
- On phone launch MTK Uncle and select User (on my phone it is = ENGINEER MODE/ENGINEER MODE (MTK)/LOG AND DEBUGGING/USER2ROOT/USER)
- Go to Settings / Developer Options and turn on USB Debugging (if it is already turned on, turn it off and then turn it on again)
- Start Kingo Android Root, connect phone to PC ( try to use usb cable that came with mobile phone ) and do everything like in step 2
Now open kingosoft root connect the phone and let it do its thing.
At restart of the phone kingosoft will show on screen a message like "checking root status"
Launch mtk uncle and enter engineer mode.
Go to log and debugging tab ans select user2root
Select Root.
Now kingosoft will tell you that root is succesfull and restarts the phone.

If it cant establish connection with phone try to reboot the phone ( don't unplug the phone from PC ) and when it reboots, check again if USB Debugging is turn ON.
I rooted my phone at second attempt but that doesn't means that it would work for everybody or that this steps are needed.
Yeah, it took me a few attempts to be honest. I also used a data cable from my oneplus one.
I'm happy there are more people to help with this, so we can get some proper root instructions.
Also new firmware is on their site. I know nothing about mtk devices. How can I flash it if I can't find how to get into fastboot mode manually? (Why I omitted first step)
Edit: Quick Reboot from playstore will boot into fastboot mode for you!

Leago Lead 3
-- On my phone (when is turned off ) if i press ( vol+ ) and then ( power ) key it will enter recovery but in recovery menu, ( power ) key doesn't work.
I can only go down with ( vol- ) and select with ( vol+ ).
-- If i press ( vol- ) and ( power ) key *(when is turned off)* i will enter something similar to recovery, but everything is on Chinese language.
Here i can go up and down through the menu and select with ( power ) key.
I only know that word at the bottom means EXIT.
I also don't know how to flash, i think we need to use SP Flash Tool or MTKDroidTools but they look complicated.
Successfully installed Carliv custom recovery. You need root first though.
[PORT][RECOVERY] Carliv Touch Recovery v-1.5 for porting to all MTK phones
You need Default [UTIL][WIN][MT65xx] MTK Droid Root & Tools | MediaTek Android Smartphone
I didn't manually do the work. I used the automated porting tool. But to get root shell, I had to run the MTK tools. It notifies you that it can get you root shell by clicking root. Then you run CTRv-1.4 (the automated porting tool) and it can gain root shell access now. It automates everything and boots you into the new CWM.
By this point, if you can get root, you should have everything you need. I installed adb using
[TOOL] [WINDOWS] ADB, Fastboot and Drivers - 15 seconds ADB Installer v1.3
I've also semi deciphered the Chinese menu. So from the first menu entry.

You can build your own custom philz with either the recovery.IMG from your own phone or you can choose one manually. Leagoo has updated firmware for this device on their website. I suggest an update first then root and then recovery.

No need to unlock bootloader. Install mobile uncle tools from play store to device. Pick your favorite rooting tool. I used kingo root. Run kingo root. The app will try to reboot the phone for some fastbook work, when this fails, it will boot back into android. This is where you open mtk uncle tools, head into MTK engineering mode, scroll right until you see user/root. Tap that to choose root and the rooting tool will continue.

You can try flashing with flashify from the playstore, or I used the SP_flash tool. You just uncheck what you dont want to flash.
This is where things get good for you. In philz recovery, you can use the built in tool found in the Advanced Menu to Re-root the system. Once completed, reboot and install supersu from the playstore, it will notify you to install the su binary. Reboot and you should have root. Or at least I did.
I used this method AFTER applying the update on the Leagoo website. Which I highly recommend before ANY updates. all updates go OTA after this release. NO idea if update will work after rooting your device or installing CWM.
For using flashify the phone need to be rooted. I started the process with SP_flash tool and nothing, not even 1 %, it's been like this for hours. I tryed every method for rooting and flashing ROM that I could find on internet. I'm starting to be hopeless. Can you upload me you're backup file. I think that i could put it on SD CARD and restore phone to your backup file.
Hi and thanks for using your time to take a look at my post. I am trying to install cyanogenmod 12.1 on my TF300T.
I went to the Asus website and downloaded the unlock tool v8, installed on tablet, and ran it without any issues. Tablet reboots shows little "this device is unlocked" in top left corner. However when it boots up and I try to run an app like titanium backup pro or supersu app, the app say they cannot get root access....
Has anyone experienced this before?
Am I missing a step?
I have android ver. 4.2.1.
Any info is greatly appreciated.
Unlock unlocks the boot loader allowing you to load custom roms via additional boot loader as per rom instructions, it does not give root access. You will need to search to a process to root the tablet, I used Kingo root, some do not like using this......although I had no problems. Using custom roms and rooting is at your own risk!
So this is the process that ive Followed... I ran the unlock tool, everything completes without issue. Nexissue the command adb reboot bootload to get my tablet into correct mode. Once the tablet is ready I flash a recovery image (TeamWin TWRP) to the device and boot the recovery. From here, it seems that recovery does not permission to mount any of the drives/folders. I look at the log file and see errors sayin unable to find partitions and unable to mount folders/drives. Below is a link to an image of the errors.
I am not sure if this link will get posted correctly to this thread: https:// drive.google.com/file/d/0B-bmj1Mkq-xzMkQyMHVPU0poSjQ/view?usp=sharing
BTW, thanks for your quick reply.
FYI, for the link above, there is a space between the HTTPS:// and the word drive which start the web address. The forum would not allow me to post a link since I am new.
Sorry, I'm no expert. When I installed Kang TWRP for KatKiss Lollipop, I did lots of research before diving in. Carefully followed instructions and all went well. When you flashed TWRP did you then reboot into bootloader?
fastboot reboot-bootloader
I think you will have to give all the steps you took, then perhaps someone will come along with more guidance.
Just to add some clarity to my situation, in hopes that someone can help shine a light:
1) Installed and ran Unlock device app V8 on the Asus webiste. It claims this is compatible with android version 4.2, i have version 4.2.1. Unlock ran then needed to reboot device. Upon reboot I saw the message "This device is unlocked" in the top right of the screen.
2) Once device rebooted, I installed adb/fastboot on my pc and ran it using CMD.
3) Connect tablet to PC using usb cable.
4) Ran the command "adb reboot bootloader" to get the device into required mode.
5) Next I run the command "fastboot devices" to verify the PC can see the tablet.
6) Run the command "fastboot -i 0xb05 flash recovery Recovery.img" to flash over the Recovery image file I have. Flashing goes through without any errors.
7) Once flash completes, I press up volume button to go into recovery.
8) Recovery boots and I am at the screen with the various options to install, backup, restore, wipe, etc.... I have Team win recovery project v2.8.7.0
9) If i try to use the backup option, it shows my internal storage as (0MB). I look at the log file (https:// drive.google.com/file/d/0B-bmj1Mkq-xzMkQyMHVPU0poSjQ/view?usp=sharing) and see that it cant find or mount various drives. If you want to view link, copy url and remove the space between https:// and the word drive.

This issue has been resolved. It looks like the version of TWRP I was using (2.8.7.0) was not getting access to the file systems to be able to make changes or install.
I downloaded version 2.8.7.2 and everyone went flawlessly after that.
Special thanks to bonzoe for telling me that he was using Kang TWRP which led me to google that and get a new version.

Half rooted like what? Example?
U have to download Universal ADB driver from XDA or Google it.
Firstly install adb drivers then download twrp 3.0.2 from twrp official site.
Put files in C:/adb/
Right Click + Shift on adb folder
Then choose command prompt
Open developer options
Enable OEM Unlocking
Enable USB debugging
Attach cable to phone
Phone will shows option
Tick and press OK
Goto command prompt
Commands
abd devices
It shows your device is connected or not
If device shows then type command
adb reboot bootloader
Device will be restarts and stuck on logo or it will shows fastboot mode
Type command
fastboot devices
Your device will be show here
Type command
device oem unlock
It shows message Okay
Your device is unlocked now
Type command
fastboot flash recovery twrp_jalebi.img ( ur twrp name)
Type command
fastboot reboot
Your device is unlocked now.
Now download supersu.zip and install it with twrp
Note:Flash supersu.zip is only required for lollipop version.
In marshmallow and noughat you don't need to flash supersu. If you do same then you will be got a device with bootloop.
In 6.0.1 and 7.0 the root access is already installed . you can got it from developer mode.
Hit thanks if I give you right instructions.
