Photon156 said:
Alright. A) What phone?
B) What software did you use?
C) By 'root', do you mean you attempted to flash a rooted stock rom to your device?
D) How didn't if work? (i.e. ODIN3: FAIL)
You may have deleted your os somehow. Go into recovery and flash the stock, unrooted version and try again.

It booted after 1 hour cooling down.

How to root Samsung Galaxy A8?

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?

I found this from another thread (posted by psafx):
Hello,
I'm seaching for a root method that works for Galaxy A8 device, anyone can root it please help.
On A8, it's Android 5.1.1 with kernel 3.10.9, KNOX 2.4
Thank you very much.
EDIT: found a solution hxxp://choimobile.vn/threads/a800f-spacex-kernel-v0-1-auto-root-busybox-android-5-1-1.60311/

Above, hxxp = http (I cannot post links)
File in the link above was for A800F. My model number is A800YZ. Can I use this kernel in the link above with my phone? I did not found, what is the difference between A800F and A800YZ. Could somebody help me?
The link translated from vietnamese to english with Google translator:
Kernel for Galaxy Sphinx A8
(Auto Root / Busybox)
SpaceX Kernel v0.1 - Root A800F
Automatically check and inject into the SU binary system if no (Auto Root)
Busybox automatically check and inject into the system if no (Auto Busybox)
Deep sleep fix
SELinux to permissive set
Installation Instructions:
(Note: the flash will activate Knox custom Kernel)
Enabled OEM unlock the Developer option, see screenshots here (otherwise skip this section)
Flash SpaceX Kernel by Odin 3.10.7
Once the device boots up, on the Google Play Store to download SuperSU or download and install the file SuperSU.apk here
In SuperSU, if asked, choose Update SU normal binary update

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

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
Been trying to root A8 all day with no luck... It took me 10 mins using this method
all old methods are not working with latest firmware. follow this guide - https://forum.xda-developers.com/sa...-samsung-galaxy-a8-a800f-a800i-6-0-1-t3529327

[Completed] Asus FonePad KO12

I have a problem with my device after I attempted rooting it. I think it's FonePad 7 FE170CG. I attempted to root it with Framaroot, Z4mod, Towelroot, One-click root, but I think I got it with Root Zenphone. But I think I did it wrong, 'cause my device is still not rooted, and now the 'factory reset' button is gone, and I can't put a lock on my device. Even when I try to, it is still on 'none' and not 'slide', 'PIN', those stuff. I tried the hard reset too: wiped the data and did the recovery thing, but the Android robot goes dead and it says "Error". I am thinking of flash recovery but I don't have a PC, and my device isn't rooted, apparently. Is there a way I could do that thing with just my tablet? Or another way of undoing all the changes I've made in my device? Please help.
Sorry.
Also, I'm sorry if I'm posting this on the wrong uh... board or something. It's my first time to write on a forum, so I apologize if I have violated any rules. Also, thanks and have a good one.

Galaxy S III (SCH-S968C) Anyway to get CyangonMod 13 or Android 5/6 on it?

I have a new Samsung Galaxy S III (S968C) with StraightTalk and it is my first Android device. Right now it has Android 4.1.2. Can I get a guide to root and install CyanogenMod 13 or Android 5/6 on it? Thanks in advanced.

Rooting your phone is actually really easy, I haven't flashed any roms yet, so I don't know about that.
First check your baseband version in settings (about phone), it should end in either H1 or H2.
If it ends in H1, then just download Towelroot or Cydia Impactor. Towelroot is an app that will root your phone, while Cydia Impactor will have to be installed on your computer and will root you phone over a USB connection.
If your baseband version ends with H2, then you will have to flash a custom recovery (which you will probably want to do anyways). You will need to find a link for the version of TWRP recovery for the d2tfnvzw phone (it's somewhere on these forums, but I can't find it right now). Once you have the recovery file, you can flash it with Heimdall (cross-platform) or Odin (windows only). Then boot into recovery (power+home+vol up). From here you can do a full backup of your phone and when you reboot, it will ask you if you want to root.
If you need any clarifications, there is a lot more information in the forums, and I'm sure people can help you.
Also, if you ever try flashing CM, I'm pretty sure that you will need a SIM card in your phone in order to have data. Just find any old SIM card and it should work (I have not tried this).

@arnoue is 100% correct, do what he posted and you'll be fine, if you go for the SIM so you can use all the new 5.x and 6.x ROMs you will need to do a couple of minor steps to get data and MMS both working. I can help you with that if you can't find it.
Here is the d2tfnvzw TWRP for Odin.
d2tfnvzw TWRP.tar.md5
Here is the same recovery in a flashable zip to be flashed through recovery for anyone that has an older TWRP or CWM and want to update to a better recovery. Flash in recovery the same as a ROM and then find the reboot recovery option in recovery, then it will reboot into the TWRP that was just flashed, it will be retained after that, then you can reboot or flash or whatever you choose from there.

I have a straight talk samsung galaxy s3 sph-s968c. I really want to root this phone. I have no access to a computer of my own so I'm trying to root with no pc. I've tried towelroot and it said my device wasn't supported. Tried framaroot neither of the exploits would work. Tried z4root and it would just run for a min then go back to my homepage. So I'm wondering is there any other way I can root my phone from my phone. Thanks in advance and if I posted this in the wrong place sorry....

Supposedly the kingoroot app(not kingroot) will root our device.
See this thread.
If it doesn't work then you may be out of luck without a PC.
