How To Root Any Android Device

A new rooting tool has been released which allows you to root any android device called cydia impactor. It is a one click rootin tool.
Website URL- http://www.cydiaimpactor.com/
Info
Cydia Impactor is a GUI tool for working with Android devices. It has features already, but is still very much a work-in-progress.
Right now, its key feature is an end-to-end exploit of the Android "Master Key" vulnerability, allowing a user to obtain root access on many Android devices (including Glass and TV).

Hi, maybe this works on vodafone smart 3 (v975)?

Can you describe the steps please ?

Cant get it to work with Panasonic Eluga DL1. Device seems vunerable to exploit (appscanner bug 8219321 and 9695860). And device is connected with adb-driver (can reboot device trough Cydia Impactor) but when waiting to complete gives error message:
/data/local/tmpimpactor-7[3]: /data/local/impactor-5: Operation not permitted
Any suggestions??

So has anyone tried this out yet? I'm afraid of trying it since I'm not sure it's fully bump compatible.

Yes I was running it as a daily driver. Very stable but bluetooth doesnt fully work. It is based on a stock LG and doesnt touch your kernel so there is no need to BUMP it

@navik my god the download speed is so painfully slow. eta 24 hours
Can you please upload somewhere else like mega.co.nz or mediafire at the least?

I believe he is asking that someone who downloads this to post a mirror, I'm not a big fan of MIUI, but am really happy to see it here. Thank you for contributing Navik.

Where did u find previous version

data doesn't work also

having issues with WIFI not sticking at all, any ideas?

I've been using this ROM since last night and it's awesome! Only problem I have is that Playstore won't download/install nothing. I had to bring back my apps from Titanium Backup and download others from the Xiaomi Market. Tried installing Aptoide for a workaround but nope, said it was a virus and didn't wanted to install it. Haha Other than that, LTE works, WiFi works and Bluetooth works.

I agree its got a few bugs but its nice to see something different in development

Oh man....
I LOVE my some MUI! I hope to god this gets fixed up a bit I would LOVE to run it

[Q] Can't get back to stock LG D800

I tried installing the lollipop 5.0 ota update for the Lg g2. Something happened and my phone completely stopped working, then i checked another forum and installed twrp on it. After that i could access twrp recovery, if i didnt hold the power and volume down button when it starts up i would get stuck at the boot logo. I tried to enter download mode to flash lg stock, but when i entered download mode it wouldnt get far. it would get stuck loading (picture atached). My lg d800 is rooted using lg stock rom.

I can find /sys and /system but no /storage. It isn't in /sdcard either. There is an external sd card folder but that is empty. Thanks for trying to help. I have tried all the methods i could find on the internet like adb sideload and download mode, ive taken it to the att store and called lg, but none of them work. I cant mount the flash drive either.

I'm not in the same boat as the OP. I simply want to flash back to stock from rooted 4.4.2, D80020y. The problem is I'm on Cricket, not AT&T (with an unlocked AT&T G2). The files in that link are pretty old systems, so I'm afraid if I flash back to that I won't be able to OTA back up to 20y. So far I haven't been able to OTA to Lollipop, so I'm assuming I simply won't get AT&T OTA's with a Cricket SIM.

Stock icon's with all themes! No root needed!

Just found a way to enjoy all themes with stock icon's, and no root needed!
A lot of themes are almost perfect and missing 1 thing, stock icon's!
All you need is this Galaxy care app.
https://mega.nz/#!ggZnWTDD!Ba4iPQ_xk8mkV4VtERkbixzbzlG18mYGiJj8grmQiAI
1. Open the app and swipe 2 times to the left and select details.
2. Now select the themes ( all ending with appicon ) and delete them.
3. After delete restart your phone and enjoy your theme whit stock icon's.
4. Don't update this app true the playstore otherwise it will not work anymore.
Enjoy!

Works Great,i have been waiting for this options.

I'm getting error, device does not supported.

It tell me "App not installed" FIX PLZ

Excellent on S6, and not only that, the new icons, compared to the default theme, they also have the lower shadow, which they had lost with the new updates, making the movement of the background effect of the homescreen unnecessary:

If your s7 is rooted, install the root explorer apk and download the S.Interner apk v7.0. Then go to root apk and push permissions. You can see 2 parts. In the left you should go to the system folder and entry in the app or priv-app. There, you should see Browser folder and see your browser apk installed. Now, go to the right part, and look sd card folder or the folder where you download the v.7. Then, copy the v.7 to the browser folder. You must see that the v.7 is name like com.samsung..... and the browser installed is name like browser_Vx (x=number). In the file of the new version, push on it and see the option to permissions and you must tick only the three options on reader and the first on writer. Then push ok, and push again on the new version file, rename it with the name of Browser like the apk installed (if you see the advice to already app with this name; delete the version installed and left the new). Reboot the phone and that's it. (Note: if the browser can't open, go settings > apps > browser > clean data and enjoy it)

Try also to post in correct section .. question and answers... There is a thread for this... Here are for mod and theme.
