There are a few of use trying to get root for our ZTE Zinger. It seems that ZTE has this little guy locked down tight. Most paritions are r/o set on boot. If you go into recovery, they are not however.
What is needed next to help with this?
I know it's such an unusual question.
We have a couple of talented guys trying to achieve this but help is needed.
This is the page in the thread where things get going:

Here are the specs for the ZTE Zinger. It's just a small prepaid Tmo phone, and it's locked down tighter than fort knox.

Thanks for any direction or pointers concerning this thing.
No one at all?
I'm not even expecting someone to root it for us....maybe a big push in the right direction .

Ya I'm trying to root this phone for a friend but can't find anything anywhere...
All they have accomplished so far is temporarily rooting. But, in another thread, they are really trying hard to find a way to root permanently.

I been on the search on how to root my Galaxy s 4g from Us Cellular called the Aviator... (Brand New... Only been out for a week.)
The thing is that USCC is CDMA but their 4g network must be GSM. I don't know if this is a hybrid of CDMA and GSM together or what. (<------ Don't know if that is relevant but tossed it in.) Cant find much on the phone yet....
Anyway my question is the steps to root and flash the same as the T-Mobile sgs4g?
I have tried several different ways and all have been unsuccessful and nothing seemed to work. All that I tried were Software based rooting programs. Super One Click was the most recent and failed.
You need to check the model number under the battery and tell us what it says before we can give you proper advice.
Its the SCH-R930.....
We can't help you in this forum. This is for the SGH-T959V.

For future reference, it appears the name of the phone is Galaxy S Aviator (Samsung Stealth). Your phone is VERY new. Give it some time and you will likely find develpment for it before long.
Hello Friends,
I am trying to unlock my LG g slate V909, already got the network unlock code. I tried my best to find unlocking instructions. Everywhere it says same thing even LG website too. Insert non accepted sim card and it will ask you for Unlocking code. But for some reason its not asking for any code. I remember for galaxy tab i punched some numbers from calculator to get a phone pad but i don't know if there is any option available for this slate. Could anybody please help me in this.
Thanks

I havent been able to come across any helpful info on unlocking my new used lg v909 g slate tablet. Anyone with anyhing helpful hit me back. Thanks
I tried looking everywhere but other than through Walmart site I can not find 'anything' relating to my phone.
The phone in question is the Alcatel Zip Lte model # A577VL.
Is there anyone that knows anything regard this? And in relating to rooting it is there a special method that is just invisible to my searching?

Not much information is out there in regards to your phone other than specs and what not.
However, you could attempt to root your phone using one click root apps : https://techonation.com/root-android-without-pc-computer/
Always remember to backup and follow the instructions to the point. If anything goes wrong, I am not responsible.
Enjoy!
I have this phone too, and one-tap roots don't work.

So here is most of the information I have:
Computer installs drivers for "Pixi 5 HD"
Can't find any information online
Made in China
Edit: Alcatel goes by Optus in Australia
Optus Zip is the same as the Alcatel Zip is the same as the ZTE Blade
The main company is TCL communications and they are from China if I read it correctly. You may be able to find a match they TCL
First post here, I apologize if this is the wrong place or if it's been covered before - I personally have not been able to find the answer;
Hey everyone I know this is a fairly old phone (the galaxy s6) however it's running Android 7.0 or Nougat. I have been searching XDA, but other than that I've just been finding really sketchy blogs that only half cover how to root/unlock the device. I was wondering if anyone could direct me in the correct path?
My main concern is - since the Phone is MetroPCS... will I have to unlock it before I can root it?
***Side Note:*** I could spend $20 on a code but would prefer not to as I've never had to do that.
Can I root it before I unlock it?
I ask because I found something on gsmhosting called "SM-G920T1 7.0 unlock done by great Octopus"
Which showed that the device had been rooted prior to unlock.
It's been a while since I rooted a phone so if anyone can supply a step-by-step for this exact model, I would greatly appreciate it.
