So I've had the Idol 3 a couple months, but I couldn't unlock bootloader because I was at 6.0.2, my phone broke, got a replacement through warranty and it arrived at 5.0.2, so I unlocked bootloader successfully, now I want to know what steps I have to do to root it and get it at marshmallow with the root? Thanks!

This is a Good ROM, you can try.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/idol-3/development/rom-6045-spb-1-0-stock-stable-fast-oc-t3392375
Do always a TWRP backup. There is TWRP 3.0.0-0 and TWRP 3.0.0-1 for 5.5, do a litle search in Alcatel Idol 3 main page.

I don't know anything about twrp, I don't even know what it is. I unlocked bootloader, so what is that rom? Do I install that then somehow root it? Orrr?
Before flashing anything else, I suggest reading through the forum threads as it is all too easy to brick your phone.

Hey uys, first off if this is a dupe, my bad. I did a bit of searching and couldnt find a topic that addressed this question specifically for the droid maxx DE.
I have my DE on 4.2.2, never took any updates. I have since unlocked the bootloader, and am rooted.
I wanted to know if rooting this phone with bootloader unlocked was as simple as installing supersu or superuser from the play store? I have heard that with an unlocked bootloader there is no additional steps needed (such as rock/pwn mymoto etc). Can anyone confirm that this is true?
Also does the same apply with KitKat? Am I simply able to root by installing supersu since my bootloader is unlocked?
Thank you and appreciate the help.

It IS simple but not as simple as that. After you unlock you need to flash TWRP, after that in the bootloader menu boot recovery then reboot from recovery and it will ask if you want to install Su, swype to to that and then you're rooted. The same method applies to KitKat.

in theory, yes. I've had an issue with getting root to stick using CWM touch. If you use a recovery other than TWRP and it doesn't work you can always root using TWRP then flash your recovery of choice after.
What is correct CWM recovery for xt1080 ?
I am looking here:
http://clockworkmod.com/rommanager
and here:

I dont see any of xt1080, or Droid Ultra/Maxx/Mini.
I have a Dev Ed xt1080

there is only "moto_msm8960" and no "moto_msm8960dt".

Thank you for your reply. I know the "dt" version ROM is for this phone, but that isn't the question.
My question is: What is the correct CWM recovery for this phone? Where do I find it?

Hi. Been out the loop for a while and struggling to find the answer to my question.
I'm on 4.4.4 no custom revovery but with root.
I have an OTA notice to go to lollipop, which should be fine, as I have stock evetything?
How do I simply get root back afer the update?
So many posts with options, I'm struggling to find the right answer.
Unlock bootloader, and then either use cf-autoroot or flash latest SuperSU BETA through twrp.

Thanks, bootloader is already unlocked. I don't really want to install any custom recoveries, so the cf-autoroot sounds like the way to go.
Do you have a link for how to use this method?

to use a custom recovery you don't need to flash it.. just boot it.

So just to clarify, I have a 6045I factory global unlocked from Amazon, It has never been rooted, bootloader unlocked, nothing. So would I place on SD and apply update through stock recovery, or is there a different method? Really just want root for adaway and xposed. TWRP would be nice, but not necessary. Just don't want a new paperweight. Thanks!
Can i install twrp to flash thid or stock is fine?
You can try windroid toolkit v3.1.
First u have to unlock bootloader then to flash recovery and supersu .
For me it is not recognising my phone hope u will get success.
If try then pls share ur experience.

Well the obvious choices are:
1) Use mobile Q to restore to 5.0.2...unlock bootloader, install twrp....upgrade to marshmallow using the modified update.zip that doesn't wipe recovery and finally root using the file mentioned.
or
2) Live with it as it is until someone figures out how to restore fastboot which will probably still require downgrading.

That's the problem. This phone is totally stock with nothing done but the update. I literally charged it, turned it on and 20 minutes later 6.0.1 was nagging for install, which I did. There is now the OEM unlock switch in developing options, but I don't know where to start, or flash.

You must go back to 5.0 to install and then update it because in 6.0.1 update Removes Fastboot commands so you can't install it twrp....
I have a problem with rooting 6039Y on rom 6.0.1 by persona78. Stock rom 5.0.2 and root working fine. When i flash via TWRP after the update to MM i get this message:

---Already patched, attempting to find stock backup

---Ramdisk restore failed, aborting
This solution - echo SYSTEMLESS=true >> /data/.supersu - not working.

do ALOT more reading before you even think about rooting
Thx to reply. Like the others i wanna root to have root apps in my phone ,
Thx . Wanna have apps requires root in my phone . That simple
You don't even need to decrypt if you don't want to.
Unlock Developer Options (Settings - About: tap build number until it says it's enabled)
Go to the Developer Options and enable OEM Unlocking
Unlock bootloader
Flash twrp 3.1.0
Flash SuperSU no-decrypt (https://mega.nz/#!lkV0jbYJ!b1h-5uVksvpt7rw0tRHV7Qxjwk2xkKox0w-iRsCLlbU)
Have fun.
For decryption follow the decrypt guide.
To undo root and relock (Bootloader Locked) flash a stock firmware using the Force flash guide under Guides or use firmware finder).
For Magiskv12 root you need firmware B182+

Original SuperSU 2.79 won't install. We have no loop support in kernel pre-B182. And even with support it doesn't install. The one I linked is a phh supersu hybrid. It uses phh su's method of installing, but installs SuperSU.

Hi. I just happen to come across your post and noticed you said that there is no loop support pre-B182. I have the Chinese version with B213.

Just would like to say that it's not fair to say him that in case that the second entry said: One post on xda and he wants to root!
I think the problem is the order you gave him @ante0 (MAYBE!)
Unlock bootloader
flash TWRP
And I think he now has a BIG problem bc you DIDN'T said or forced him to go into developer settings and turn on OEM-unlock!
@nawraz did you turned on OEM-unlock in developer settings?
if you boot into fastboot mode are BOTH (bootloader and FRP = unlocked (in red letters), or and I really hoper NOT is FRP lock (in green letters)???
Maybe that is now the problem for him, not being able to flash SuperSU?
If you have luck @nawraz then try to flash TWRP 3.0.2-2 and with that SuperSU2.79
If you have root then you can install latest TWRP (3.1.0-1)
If you can't flash anything... oh oh!

He already unlocked and flashed twrp.
3.1.0 installs SuperSU fine. 3.0.3 does not.
And if oem was locked he wouldn't even be in twrp as you can't flash anything with fastboot if it is locked.
But I'll update my post in case anyone does miss to unlock oem.
Hope you don't get me wrong!
Just said that bc I had that problem 5 days ago and the only thing that helped was funky!
I had a softbrick and a reboot always kicked me into eRecovery
I just had eRecovery and fastboot!
Bootloader relocked and frp locked!
Stupid me relocked the bootloader bc I read that you then can unlock oem, then unlock bootloader again!
Well, that was a mistake!

Yeah. Only way then would be to rebrand to C636 using the DLOAD method, then rebrand back to your stock version using the Update thread under Guides. The latter requires twrp though so you'd need to rebrand first to get a working system.
To be honest I just figured he had already unlocked and flashed twrp as he was in the decrypt thread
Missing oem was an error on my side. It was long since I had to unlock oem xD

Weird. I tested with 3.1.0 a few days ago. But I guess it could have to do with builds. 3.1.0 is using kernel for B182. Maybe it's fixed if you use 3.1.0 with B182.
Oh well, good you managed to install it anyway.
Edit: I tested with the SuperSU I linked.

All I know is that it wasn't present in builds before B182.
@st_voss is the one who found out it was added in B182 (Kernel build April. 11th probably as that's what I have on B182.).
It might be present in B181 on C636 as well, that was released 8th of May.
