Hi
I just got this phone but can't find a lot of information about it, a few people have asked about rooting it and I think iRoot should work but haven't tried it yet. I also want to install a custom recovery and do a backup before I install a stock rom from this page (http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/htc-mtk-cpu-flash-files-flashtool-t3114271) can I use the steps here : http://droidchina.com/guides/how-to-install-cwm-to-any-mtk-device to install CWM.
Thanks

Hi guys anyone can help me get the latest version Clockwordmod recovery for the rooting process? Please help, thanks ..
well if i understand your ? your looking to root your phone ? correct? if so you will need to root your phone first once your phone is rooted you can download rommanager from android market and it will download the latest avalible clockworkmod recovery to your device
any ? just inbox me
just look for a guide on how to root like the guy above said. what phone do you have? you may also want to look at TWRP as your recovery manager. i was having some issues with clockwork with my evo3d, so i decided to gove TWRP a try. when it comes to clockwork, be careful about the newest version. for some reason my 3d refused to work with anything later than CW 4.0.4 or something like that... odd anyway just makesure you can reflash the old version if you update
If you are trying to port CWM to your device, you can just get CyanogenMod source code from github. It contains the latest CWM source.
So, I'm installing an custom rom for the 1st time.
So, my phone and other details;
Samsung Galaxy S Plus
Android 2.3.5 Stock
SIM-Locked.
Wanting this ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2315448
I know I lose the warranty, but i dont really care as there is like 2-3 months left.
I have some big questions, as im a noob!
1) Can being SIM-Locked cause any problems?
2) I read, that you don't have to root to install it.
3) How do I install it? I know something about root/Custom ROM's, but no idea about kernels/recoverys. Full tutorial if possible!
You need to install CWM recovery because You can flash new roms through it.. And for install CWM. You must have a rooted device. So Do this before installing any rom. Make sure You install rom of ur own device.

Hi!
Been using ROMs and root for a while on my S3, but since I lost it Im back to an old htc wildfire s. Ive installed a custom ROM(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2735775&nocache=1), but it is unrooted. Standard rooting methods do not seem to work, how would one go about rooting a custom ROM?
Hola, if you have a custom rom installed, i guess you have unlocked it. Maybe you dont have superuser installed, i guess?
What root method did you use?
And you can try to flash the superuser binary (http://androidsu.com/superuser/)
Hope it will it, reply back if you need more help
Thanks, flashing superuser worked
I have lost the data USB cable for my Note 10.1 8013 and I want to get root so I can install CWM recovery and Gnabo Rom. If there's an easier or safer way please let me know asap if this is it please confirm I have the steps right.
I've been online for hours and it looks like my best option is Framaroot. I have only rooted 2 devices before and always using Odin and Chainfires auto root.
First question is if it is successful will it allows me to install the custom rom that I want? I'm trying to figure out how or where in the process to install cwm recovery and make sure I don't brick the tablet.
if yes that it will work to install gnabo rom then based on the Framaroot thread I understand that I am good to go using Framaroot 1.9.3 Sam, frodo, legolas or aragon exploits?
instructions as I understand them:
I Dl fr 1.9.3 on device
install with file explorer
Install supersu
then try the exploits until I hopefully see success?
then reboot
How do I get custom recovery? This is where I'm totally lost at
then follow instructions told Gnabo Rom? - already have zips on sd
Normally I can reach a few of the guys from the Tmo N4 to help me because I'm such a new but they're all tied up and I basically only have today free to mess with this.
Hey guys, Does anyone have a good link to a detailed easy to follow tutorial on how to root and use CustomROMS plus how to install customs recovery. The last time I tried, My phone bricked.
