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.
Hy, Thank you for checking out my post.
I got little problem,
So i wanted to play Clash Of Clans on my phone, the only problem i have is that the application is incompatible.
So searched some fixes how to do that, and the majority of them were APK file's or Buildprop or Market Helper.
And they all looked great and that they would work, but every time you needed to Root your phone.
This is my first time rooting a phone so i wanted to be sure i would not make any mistake's or fails.
So i was looking up on how to root my HTC Desire S, and i came a cross this site that noticed me on the program called: HTC Quick Root, but im wondering what to do from there since there are no tutorials or forum's that show this work's, or maybe i am just a retard in searching stuff...
But yea, i was wondering if you guys know if its: Safe? Or how it works? and what Root Method to choose (Universal Exploit or Insecure Boot.img, i want Market Helper btw)
Pleas let me know, and if you guys think im a dump ass and im doing something really wrong, pleas dont go hard on me, im a noob

You need S-OFF + insecure kernel to use the Quick Root.
Easy way to gain ROOT access:
Unlock your bootloader using HTCdev.com
Flash TWRP (custom recovery) via fastboot
Flash SuperSU (root) via TWRP

Thank you for your reply,
But i must admit i do not know 100% where you are talking about.
Do mean that i need to be in S-Off modus to root, or does quick root do that for me?
What do you mean with Root access, do i need TWRP and SuperSU to root with quick root?
I hope you understand, i am new to all of this, so pleas dont get mad.

Any reason to get mad ?!
root = gain root access for your device
S-ON/S-OFF means "Security Flag" of your device on/off. Stock is S-ON
I can't suggest the "quick root" as it won't make anything easier for you if your device is running stock android.
TWRP is a "custom recovery" which gives you the ability to flash any custom roms or zip files. SuperSU is a zip file that will grant you permanent root access.

HTCdev.com -> click "unlock Bootloader" provides a detailled step-by-step guide. Stock android means non-rooted android as it came with the device. Once you've unlocked the bootloader I can assist you using Skype.

How do you root a z828 zte avid plus phone metro pcs?????
It's different than the Avid 4G. You can still get into the FTM, but I'm guessing either the script or the security is different. Mine is on Android 5.1.1 MetroPCS and I've been searching everywhere to no avail. Some help in this matter would be greatly appreciated. :cyclops:
Also desperately looking for a way to root the device. I bought it as a cheap replacement when my last phone was broken, and so far I've enjoyed the phone. This is one major pitfall, though. Ive tried plenty of rooting apps and methods, and I'm willing to test and play with more. Any help is greatly appreciated and I'm offering any assistance I can. Let's find a way to crack this thing.
hi you guys i bought the avid plus from somebody yesterday for $50 and it turned out that the phone is messed up bad it wont boot and when it does it just turns off and its hard to get to go back on, is there anyway you guys can send me a copy of a backup of your phone system files, ive been looking everywhere online for countless hours for any kind of stock file and theres none at all so please i beg you send me a link or email me a few of the main required files please my email is [email protected] thank you so much for helping

ZTE Open allows you to reinstall and recover all your system files, but you need a PC and the software/directions. Google "ZTE open" z828 and you should be able to find the info you need. :cyclops:

not yet......kingroot has a request form when you download it on your phone. As of now, there is about 5000 requests and was last seen at queue list 342 and it increase every day. my guesstimate is maybe by the end of July there will be a root program
End of July for sneaky Chinese info-thief rooting... Should be at about Android 9.2 by then. Never again owning a ZTE unless is a time machine and/ or comes with a Gremlin.

I don't know how successful you can be but if you go to kingoroot.com and try you may have a chance.
Here is what I did, first I downloaded the program for the pc, then attempted to root the device. When it failed, I saved the log and emailed them. After about a week I tried again. By this time I was fooling around with the cable, restarting phone, unplugging the cable and constantly restarted the kingoroot app, then finally after an hour of doing this the root worked!!!
Give it a shot, it may be worth it!!!
I have the same problem too, the reason why many rooting apps failed because the Z828 is not yet rootable. But don't worry, it will be in the future.. just don't know when.
Root
Root successful with kingoroot.
Phone messing up and root gone upon reboot.

Can't use it for anything.
I got boot up and running!
Step 1: DOWNLOAD
ADB Drivers - http://adbdriver.com/
ADB Shell (guide and download) - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=48915118
kingo root - https://www.kingoapp.com/android-root/download.htm
Step 2: Command Prompt with ADB
run the CMD with admistrator privileges and use the following commands -
adb devices
[hit enter]
adb reboot disemmcwp
[Your device will now reboot with some extra write permissions]
install and run KINGO ROOT! (Yes, it's kingO root, not King) on your pc.
SHAABAAMMMM!!!!
Now we need a custom recovery for it!
PS: o/! Dont try link2sd , because it #$&*#&(*@^*$ your apks, and you can't find it in the 2nd partition.
it says that the device is offline what do i do?
It does work as stated above. Nice job, I've been trying to do this for a while now. I didnt know there was a command to make the phone reboot with more permissions. Very nice!
Seems to not work for me. I get it to connect and everything, but KingoRoot fails to keep going or it finishes at 100% and tells me that it failed to install Root.
Nevermind, I had to reboot my PC.
I'm not sure this is a true root. And how do I remove kingosu and replace with SuperSU? Super sume did not work as kingosu refused to give it a permission.
Yeah its a false root. Had to wipe and factory reset.
okay. upon third try it rooted! and even root explore r/w worked!
however i deleted the metro apps and tried to install supersu because i hear nasty comms going on between kingouser and chinra.
well i'm bricked now. lol.
wont boot past powered by android splash. possibly because i deleted the MYMETRO folder in system/app.
zte and metro dont provide the update.zip so i cant recover.
any ideas? and dont tell me go to metro because they wont help.
Same problem now bricked can only open recovery

Unlocked with sunshine, going to install twrp.
What will twrp change? will it change the 4.4.4 that Im on? I want to keep that. I simply want root, thats it, everything else is fine. Ive read all I need to do is install twrp and than flaah superSU. Is that correct? Root junky came up on a google and his site has
twrp-2.6.3.1-Obake-4.4.img
I found this twrp here at xda
openrecovery-twrp-2.8.4.0-obake.img
Someone please educate me on the different options
Thanks

Either twrp should work fine personally I would go with the latest version from XDA. Second no it will not change your operating system it just changes your recovery on the phone so you can flash Roms seamlessly. But once installed and in twrp the first thing it will ask is if you want to root system just Swype the bar and it will root if that's all you want then just reboot phone after that and your done.
Thanks, one more question, regarding superSU, do I need that after installing TWRP? I'm sure it's on my moto x that I rooted a couple years ago with slap my moto, been a couple years since I used the ADB on the pc but I'm sure I won't have a problem with this, just don't understand everything yet LOL
Thanks again.

Yes you will if it's not there automatically after twrp then just download the app from the play store and update binaries if needed via normal method
Hi all! Been a very busy year, the mini is still new and on 4.4.4 and 4.21, screen of the system http://s8.postimg.org/xkndt6ubp/Screenshot_2016_04_04_23_57_49.png

Answered your new thread, but if you're trying to reboot to recovery, you should try:
fastboot reboot recovery
Since you're at the bootloader, you can also use the [VOL] buttons to select "Recovery" and go from there too.
ok, thanks, my first time trying to install TWRP, I didnt know had to boot recovery, i just did what I read the thread here on how to install it. What does TWRP look like? All I get is boot up that looks normal and nothing indicating a change has even occurred. If I boot recovery will TWRP boot?
I called my mom and asked her to hold the power and down volume buttons in and see what happens... she figured it out. she snapped this picture of it and asked me what to do now... I told her I didn't know, I thought the first thing TWRP asked upon boot was if you wanted to root?
Hi,
a couple months ago, I successfully rooted my Idol 3 with the "root.bat" method. I realised a week ago that my phone was not rooted anymore and I tried to re-root it in the same fasion, but it didn't work. I then proceeded to unlock the TWRP recovery loader and re-installed SuperSU from there. I used RootCheck to see if my device was rooted and it is not. I can't gain root access either and SuperSU prompts me with a dialog box saying "SuperSU binary needs to be updated". If anyone can offer any help, I would greatly appreciate it I'm a little nooby when it comes to rooting, so if I was too vague in my description of the problem, please point it out so I can be more specific.
Thanks,
-Yasio
Found a solution if anyone is ever intrested!
Turns out my firmware had some sort of issue, so I used the Mobile Upgrade Q utility and just re-flashed the phone with the stock firmware. You can find a whole tutorial here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/idol-3/help/return-to-stock-firmware-recovery-t3216077)?
It's super easy. Then, I just re-rooted the phone with the TWRP method DallasCZ came up with also posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/idol-3/general/guide-unlock-bootloader-root-alcatel-t3161878
And there you go, I got root access back and got rid of the freakin' "Binary files need to be updated" or w/e prompt in SuperSU.
Thanks again to DallasCZ and others for their hard work on the rooting scene for the Idol 3. I love this phone and you made me love it even more
