[Q] Need help rooting Samsung Galaxy Young s6310

Hello, everybody! I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy Young s6310 and I want to root it. I have read about rooting, and about different methods of doing so, and I resorted to Framaroot, which didn't quite work. I tried many versions of Framaroot, and every single try had two outcomes: the Aragorn exploit didn't work, the Gandalf crashed (I tried restarting the app 5 or 6 times, but still it wouldn't work).
So Framaroot would be out of the picture. A quick mention: my phone had JB 4.1.2 as a default OS, and most of them come with GB 2.3.6.
I abandoned the idea of rooting it with Framaroot, and I saw another possibility in SRSROOT. Did anyone root his phone with SRSROOT? Are there any risks involved? (mainly in the rooting process, not what it implies afterwards) I have heard that this method is safe, because no flash is required, you just connect your phone to USB, press a button and it's done. Another method I found was the Unlockroot application.
What is the simplest method to root my phone? And the safest one, of course.

I have a Galaxy Nexus so I don't know many ways to root the Galaxy Y. But I have a solution to root it that almost certainly will work.
First flash or boot a custom recovery than flash the latest supersu.

Here's a CWM recovery for your phone:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2328771
It says there to "flash with Odin". Not sure how to do that, you might want to check Google.

I tried flashing a recovery file from Djalo96's FTP, and Odin doesn't recognize my phone while in download mode, and yes, I have the ADB and fastboot drivers. Odin detects my phone while in normal mode, but when in download, it doesn't show me anything. Sheesh, I never knew it was SO hard to root a phone. I heard something about unlocking the bootloader. I understand the concept behind this, but how do I achieve that?
P.S. I tried rooting it with Unlockroot Pro and SRSROOT and it didn't work. I suppose it's because of this bootloader issue.

Try universal root method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2403230 it worked on my S6310N

you have the samsung drivers do you? you don't need to unlock anything, i have rooted mine with the same guide, and it worked, so if you have installed kies or just the samsung usb driver it should work. you dont need adb or fastboot drivers, odin and samsung drivers should be enough

Try flashing update.zip for sgy.... Google it
JUST PRESS THANKS IF I HELPED...

i root my galaxy young with framaroot 1.6
just choose supersu and gandaf then root and reboot

Find the update.zip file for sgy and zip it using cwm. Also download the update-unroot.zip file in case you need to unroot later on
Press thanks button

[Q]

Sorry guys, I know this has been covered, but I can't seem to find what I need via searching. I read forums more than I post so forgive me if I have done anything wrong. I am def an amateur when it comes to these things but I do okay.
I recently rooted my verizon gs3 4.3 with towelroot. It is actually just an old phone that I wanted to root and sell. Anyway, like an idiot I tried to install clockworkmod recovery from the clockworkmod app, my phone rebooted and I got the "unauthorized software" message from verizon. The phone will go into download mode. I need a little help finding the correct file to download and flash with odin to fix this. I'm sure its been covered but all of the download links for the file I have found have given me download errors. I have never bricked a phone before and I really want to fix this thing and sell it. Any help.

Follow these instructions and it should work.

verizon 4.3 gs3 soft brick update.
Okay this is where I'm at now. I finally got the phone to reboot into the regular system, I can boot into odin mode but not recovery mode, recovery mode give me the "unauthorized software" warning from verizon. When this happens I can do a battery pull, boot into odin mode, then press volume down to reboot the phone and the normal system comes up. I still have root with towel root. So when I tried to install cwm recovery from the cwm app that's where my problem started. This is my first time tweaking a phone with a locked boot loader. I can do anything with the phone when it's booted up to the regular system, except a factory data reset, if I try I get the "unauthorized software" screen. I tried un rooting with supersu, which seemed to work, because root checker reported that there was no root access. So I Re rooted with towelroot, reinstalled supersu from Play store. Now I have root access again, but still cannot go to recovery mode, or do a factory data reset.
That being said, since I can boot the phone the system, and i have root access with root explorer and es file explorer (with root files enabled). Is there a way to go in and remove all the files and things that cwm app installed when attempting to install cwm recovery. Basically I'll be thrilled to be able to factory reset and use stock recovery, I can deal with that, as long as I have root access so I can debloat and run root apps. So what can I do to get back to stick recovey, basically the state the phone was in before my dumb self tried to install custom recovery with a locked boot loader.
Sorry the post is long, I am def a amateur phone rooter, but through five devices this is my very first real issue.
Also thanks to all who contribute to this forum, I've been saved several times from info you guys post. So THANK YOU!

@sdevans80 Did you flash the above file that @SlimSnoopOS recommended? That should have fixed your stock recovery.

Sorry, I meant to update sooner, I tried to flash stock image with odin several times with no luck. Eventually I connected to kies on my laptop, updated the phone from 4.3 to 4.4.2 which fixed every thing, after doing that I reinstalled towelroot apk and rooted the phone again. Rooting a phone by tapping an icon on a screen, and then not even having to reboot, is really cool. Thanks for the help guys.

[Q] Rooting SM-360P

So the Samsung Galaxy Prevail LTE (aka Samsung Galaxy Core Prime) has been on the market for almost 3 months now, and I've yet to find any applications or methods to root this device.
Maybe I'm looking in all the wrong places?
So far I've tried the following:
-iRooot (formerly vRoot)
-Kingo
-TowelRoot
-OneClickRoot
-SRSroot
Also I've tried to root via the ADB push method to load busybox and su. However, hooking the Android up to a machine running Ubuntu and launching Nautilus, I'm unable to see or browse the directories on the device.
So does anyone have any recommendations or know of any apps or methods that might work?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Unfortunately these phones don't seem to be very common or sold in certain territories making it difficult for developers to root them. Keep looking for a root as you never know when one will come out but as far as I'm aware the phone has not been successfully rooted yet.

kingroot_4.0.0 so far is what ive found. not like having su but i can install viper and xposed and both work so its a improvement.

There is a root available over on Androidforums.com under the heading "prevail LTE root". It uses another recovery and rooting for another model samsung but it does work ok. I tried it on my prevail LTE and is currently running rooted right now. When you first do it I recommend you do it after a fresh wipe and then wipe again immediately thereafter because it will give you a system UID error if not. So use Titanium Backup to restore apps and settings after you wipe ( judiciously). I've talked to shabbypenguin to see if he would develop a recovery for it. He's busy so I guess I mean I'm waiting right now for him to get to it.<br />

CF-Auto-Root-fortuna3gdtv-fortuna3gdtvvj-smg530bt with odin 3.07 will root phone. extract recovery img with 7zip from firmware and change format to tar and you can reflash stock recovery.
Now how do we get a custom recovery cause im having a brain fart. But this is only my second phone to root and last one was pretty much 2 yrs old and i just followed a forum.

I used the latest version of Kingroot and it was a simple one-click root. The version i used was in Chinese, i think, but i went to their website through chrome on my laptop and just let google translate the page and then followed the instructions from there...Now im real new to all this so im sure there may be easier ways...My phone is rooted, I have my MSL, so i have to ask... Now what?
Sent from my SM-G360P

Exactly
You and me both are wondering this. It would be sweet to run this device on CyanogenMod.

I second that
We need Cyanogenmod for this device!

I hope they come out with a custom recovery and custom rom SOON . There's so many things I'd like to see happen with this phone . If a dev sees this i hope he/she can make something happen Plleeaassee !!!!

Anyone making progress on this phone? I too would like to have Cyanogenmod on it if possible!

I used the method show at androidforums. com/threads/prevail-lte-root.906261/ to root 2 devices mine and my wife's both work fine with SU enabled too. Now I just need some custom roms to make it work like it should have from factory lol

Bump!
Just wondering if there is a user friendly rooting method for this Samsung Galaxy Core Prime out yet?

Any idiot proof tutorial or youtube on this for step by step how to?
The ones ive read of using custom ROM enough have reported bricking their phones some of which have been recovered & others not.
Then ive read some missing features like tethering/hot spot.
Mainly i want to easy move all 3 parts of data of an apps to my 128gb SD cause the available on-board 5gb ill use up in less than a month.

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?
rooter15.blogspot.in/2015/08/how-to-root-samsung-galaxy-a8.html

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.

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

Galaxy J7 Sky Pro (SM-S727VL) Root Help

Title says it, apologies in advance for my noobiness on the entire topic of rooting. Got lucky and my previous device was supported via kingroot. Just looking for SuperSU permissions so I can enable my hotspot really.
This phone is through straight talk btw. I've tried Kingroot, iRoot, and quite a few others to no avail. I don't currently have internet due to me moving to the butt-crack of nowhere, Tried srsroot but seems like it interferes with USB tether and says it's successfully rooted but nothing happens upon reboot.
Anyone had any success with this? Thanks in advance.

Anyone?

Please help for the love of god.

CF- Autoroot might do it. I see that it works on other variants for the J7. Here's a link with CF-Autoroot and detailed instructions. Hope it works for you. Let me know how it goes.

Is this your first time rooting a device. after srsroot says successfully rooted did you verify root by going into playstore and trying a root check app.

I tried srsroot 5.1 multiple exploit and it said rooted. I open root checker and it said phone wasn't rooted. I also tried dr. Phone and they didn't have a working root method for j7 sky pro and i was desperate enough to try king root. None of these worked. The guy than mention c.f. auto root, thats for a version of the j7 that was released in other countries. Those variants of the j7 have exoynus processors and us version have snap-dragon processors so the root procedure might brick your phone.

When ever I get some free time I'm going to try using adb commands to try and root.

Hopefully not too much longer before someone can root this thing... I'm also looking!

wondering if anyone has seen this video or tried it??
Code:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtktE0jccnw

I can't open the link but all the videos iv seen on YouTube seems to be j700's and other variants not for s727v.l From my research the devices are a listed under samsung j models but the they all have different hardware, i.e. boards, processors, chipsets,. I did a cross referience with cf-auto root to try and find a divice with the same hardware and builds, there wasnt any other device with the same hardware that would suggest compatibility. Cf-auto root flashes a root file to your device and if it's not compatible you could completely brick your device

Hello, First of, you shouldn't have used kingroot whatever the situation was
However https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.inkwired.droidinfo&hl=en
download this and capture the system and device tray

Yeah but it was worth a shot. I figured if it worked I could replace it with superSu. I will post those specs In a few. When ever. I get time and free WiFi in going to try adv root

Hello,
It did pass, however, your device seems to be a Verizon varient, it's hard to root it and there is no really a method to root it.
Sorry I couldn't help

I can't open the link but all the videos iv seen on YouTube seems to be j700's and other variants not for s727v.l From my research the devices are a listed under samsung j models but the they all have different hardware, i.e. boards, processors, chipsets,. I did a cross referience with cf-auto root to try and find a divice with the same hardware and builds, there wasnt any other device with the same hardware that would suggest compatibility. Cf-auto root flashes a root file to your device and if it's not compatible you could completely brick your device

Verizon bootloader is most of time locked you can't flash it.

I may have a method for rooting s727vl. I can't test until I get home where I will have unrestricted data in case something goes wrong. I'm gonna keep this short and simple assuming everyone have
knowledge of using odin.
Developer option usb debugging oem unlock no frp or passwords
Download odin
Download latest superSu, this isn't the same as superuser in the playstore. It's used for rooting systemless root os. Yes that what marshmallow is.
After downloading supersu place it on your phones sd card
This is what I'm not sure on. Download clockwork mod RECOVERY. Zip , not the one in the playstore. And place on pc
Use odin to flash cwm to s727vl
Please refer to guide on installing cwm
After flashing cwm go to it in recovery mode and use cwm to flash the supersu zip file and reboot phone. It could take a few minutes but it should boot with root access. Or wait for auto reboot.
What I'm not sure on is cwm compatibility with s727vl, I couldn't find a yeah or nay on compatibility. Cwm say it's compatible with any android.
Hopefully this will work. Make sure u have your data backed up and your stock rom in case things go south. If anyone try this please let me know the result. I'm anxious to try it but I travel a lot and I can't afford to have data throttled by downloading everything I need and I can't risk doing this until I'm i get home.
