Working Root for At&t Galaxy Tab 3 ( SM-T217A ) 4.4.2 Kitkat O.S !!!!

FINALLY SUCCESS !! This is how I did it. Download ->..*Kingroot 4.5 apk*.. After you install is press the circle button it will then root your Tab.. But then we need to get rid of Kingroot and all of it dependencies. What you want to do is download busybox install, open and grant root access to busybox through King root, make sure to hit the install button at the bottom of the busybox app . After that go to play store download *Supersume*..... Yes Supersume! After you install Supersume open it it and click on the button and it will install Supersu with the binaries updated and uninstall all of King root dependencies for you. Okay now we have supersu installed, now for the tricky part. You do not want to reboot your phone or you will lose supersu and have to start from the beginning. I repeat do not reboot your device yet... Go to play store download and install Flashfire apk by Chainfire and then go to XDA Supersu tread by Chainfire and download the latest flashable Supersu.zip.. Okay now that we have those two things, go back and open up Flashfire app and look for where it says OTA firmware / zips click that button and look for your Supersu.zip that you downloaded from XDA click on it an hit the check mark at the top.. Now look for where it says *Ever root* click on that make sure to hit the check mark at the top. FIND reboot and make sure that normal is checked click on the check mark at the top and that will take to back out to where there's a circle and lightning bolt Press that... Flashfire is now flashing the new Supersu. Zip for you and also inject root into your system via Ever root.... Once it reboots you will have the latest supersu and be able to reboot without losing root. This does not trip Knox.. Have fun and hit the thanks button if it helped. But please give thanks to those who made the apps King root, Supersume, Busybox, Supersu and Flashfire.. Because without those Developer's this would not be possible..

I can verify this roots the t217a. I had to unmount my sdcard and do the flashfire option to get su to stick but it did and does work. Hopefully we can get a recovery and toms now. This is a nice little tablet for free since I use it tethered through tmo and got it as payment for moving files from one laptop to another with a usb stick lol

If you havnt checked yet KNOX is still intacted.. So it doesn't trip KNOX. Which means warranty is still available if your still covered.. Also, I'm going to message Chainfire to find out if it is possible to create a Odin flashable Backup using some of the file's I have from my Flashfire Backup.. If it is possible we will have a way to recover from a boot loop or a softbick for that matter.. If so I will Experiment with flashing T-Mobile or the International TouchWiz Custom Roms using Flashfire.. I have two AT&T note 3's and I have had success installing T Mobile and international roms on both devices, if I'm not mistaken even a few Sprint custom TouchWiz Roms work on those phone's.. We have everything needed to have a Custom TouchWiz Rom except a restorable Backup.... Keep your eyes on development for this tab cause if I manage to get one to Load an that Runs well I will ask permission to post their Rom with a how to for At&t Tab 3...

Thanks for the hard work, if I can help please let me know.
Hey is there anyway to get 442 to directly save to the external sd card with the os as is?

I think I tripped Knox. My tablet boots up with the Samsung logo and "CUSTOM" underneath it and I can't find anything Knox related in settings now

No you didn't trip Knox... Mine also had the Custom pad lock when booting up.. If you would like to get rid of it just download and install xposed framework. After you install it open the xposed app and look for downloads, there you will find an app called Wanam Xposed. Open that app and look for security hacks, click on that and you will see where it says firmware status official or custom make sure its check marked. That will make your firmware official and get rid of the padlock after two reboots. If you would like to check your Knox you can download Samsung Phone Info apk I use the plus version but the free one should have you're Knox info also. Hope that helps.

Ok cool. Is there a recovery yet?

Does this add twrp or is just for rooting?

As far as I know, the bootloader is locked so there won't be any custom recovery unless that is unlocked.

930A ATT S7 Snapdragon Xposed framework

Hey guys, so I just found out about this site and am a super noob but managed to Root my ATT S7 last night. I have been trying to install the Xposed framework but it looks like I cant get a custom recovery program onto my S7. Does anyone know how to get TWRP or CWM or any custom recovery onto the 930A? Or for that matter, Xposed install without a custom recovery?

Sure, I'll start from the beginning in case any other new people are wondering.
Basically, back up your files and restore your phone to factory so the root goes smoother.
Then proceed to this thread for the root. Oh yeah, install adb if you don't have it. They dont mention it and assume you know what it is, which noobs like me don't.
After a clean root, install Flashfire (you may need to disable samsung updates and reset the phones clock back to 2012 or something if Flashfire doesn't want to start). I used 0.31, maybe the newest will work? Easy to find in google.
On page 8 of the Root thread, there is a dropbox link to the Xposed apk and zip (Here). Move them to your phone and install the apk, then use Flashfire to boot the zip.
I think that's pretty much it, Xposed should be running after the Flashfire reboot (which can take a long time as it will Optimize apps).
psouza4 has an awesome thread on what to do after Root and Xposed to make the phone run smoother.
If you do something wrong and absolutely can't fix it, see here for re-flashing back to stock.
Hope this helps someone, took me about 2 days to search all of this out. The AT&T S7 is such a pain in the ass with it's locked bootloader, but this place is > AT&T!

Alcatel Onetouch Flint Root

Hey, guys. I found a way to root Alcatel Onetouch Flint by Cricket Wireless. First, you have to enable USB Debugging and Unknown Sources. Then, download the kingroot app from kingroot.net After rooting is complete, reboot your phone. When it boots back up, download SuperSU from google play. It will ask to update binary click normal. It will ask you to remove other superuser apps (kingroot and purify) click ok andit will do it for you. If it says binary update failed just click reboot and superSU works fine ater reboot.
If you want to install Xposed, check out my other thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/xposed-alcatel-onetouch-flint-t3440789/page1

No custom recovery yet cuz we can't unlock the bootloader yet

So I found an option to "allow OEM bootloader unlock" in developer options but still no way to actually unlock it yet

I know I'm late to the party, but wanted to say good work and I got one myself after they lowered the price at Target to $50. Purchased an unlock code for $6 and will be using the root method you lined out after I get and use my sim unlock code. Thanks again!!!

Can someone plz try this method to flash twrp and see if it works

It worked for me! Guys just follow his guide and u should be good. Thanks @jsowen321

Getting SuperSu to replace Kingroot was super annoying and frustrating.
SuperSu Me just hangs cause KingUser doesn't like to be replaced and it makes sure you know that by installing itself as a system app.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/replace-kingroot-supersu-t3339950
That did for me effortlessly and SuperSu updated the binary after soooo many failed attempts.
"sh switch_armv7.sh"
You'll understand after you read the last step.
SuperSu Me should be ran after switching to remove KingRoot files from phone.
Root, Xposed and TWRP is easily achieved as long as you know how to follow directions.
Thank you @Casey Campanile & @jsowen321

lost root
I rooted my device using KingRoot , but I never could get SuperSU to install binary codes. I had read how to replace it so I download the zip file and the only thing it didwas send me error that KingRoot has stopped working. No root access. Question is do can I just start over using the instructions u gave. As u can probable tell this is my first time rooting a phone..

Yea just restart ur phone. If KingRoot is still installed, remove it, and then reinstall KingRoot again. If it's already removed just reinstall it. After rooting with KingRoot, download SuperSU from Google play and update binary using the "normal" method. Then it will ask to remove other superuser apps click OK or yes so it will remove KingRoot for u

Thank you for taking the time to deal with my issues. I did as u instructed, uninstalled and reinstalled then installed SuperSU. Unfortunately it says install failed,. Now what I'm afraid of messing things up thank u

Seems like this thread is alive, and the phone is still available in retail stores in the US.
You can root this phone without having to go through the kingroot app. See this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/rooting-roms/alcatel-users-t3488125
Hope this helps anyone who recently purchased this phone!

So what can I do with this now that I've rooted it? Is there some new rom I can install to run the latest Android? This is my first Alcatel...I've been a Samsung Galaxy S person for a bit. Looking for some fun with the Alcaltel.

Is there a way to bypass cricket hotspot lock. My phone is rooted and I installed Xposed but I can't find a way to bypass wifi tethering lock.

I did this to both of my flints. Rooted by kingo. Installed build.prop. Changed fm transmit from false to true. Net used ex file explorer. Show hidden files. Delete power roll back app. I’m on $100 for 5 lines plan. I use over 300 GB per line. Hope that helps.

[ROOT + TWRP 3.1-0] Vodafone Smart Ultra 7

UPDATED THREAD
Hey, guys. So here it is:
ROOT + TWRP
Smart Ultra 7 ONLY !
NEW TWRP VERSION: 3.1-0
_____________________________________________________
HOW TO ROOT ? :
This nethod will break OTA, so for update you must use SUGAR.
1) Download TWRP and SPFT from my PAGE and place it on desktop.
2) Download these files and put them on your SD CARD: SuperSU_1 and SuperSU_2
3) Turn off your phone and run SP FLASH TOOL.
3) When the SP FLASH TOOL starts, select MT6755 scatter file and MTK_AllinOne_DA.bin file (they are in SPFT folder)
4) Select ONLY recovery and load the TWRP_3.X.X file. (X.X means a version of TWRP)
5) Press download.
6) Connect your powered off phone to PC via USB cable.
7) After flashing the TWRP, hold VOLUME UP + POWER to boot into TWRP.
8) In TWRP press "INSTALL" and flash the boot patch - SUPERSU_1 and then flash root - SUPERSU_2.
9) Reboot and enjoy.

KingRoot Fidelity
Is it safe to root with KingRoot? Have been trying to figure out the best way root this phone for two weeks now, and trying to avoid KingRoot all this time.
Can you replace the KingRoot Binaries and Root Management Tools with the SuperSU ones?
Will Xposed Framework work on this phone? Really want AdAway, Greenify and Xposed Tweaks on the Vodafone Smart Ultra 7.
Thanks!

You can replace kingroot with supersu thanks to this app:
http://download.dlapk.org/?apkid=darkslide.com.supersume&ver=6.7&server=snah
I did not try the xposed yet.
But it should work properly.

Thanks for the reply,
I still feel skeptical about KingRoot, and there are reports that indicate that replacing KingRoot with SuperSU isn't that easy either, KingRoot seems to completely deny root once altered or removed, which makes it look even more shady, I really want root on this phone, there are tweaks I would love to do such as dpi change, remove the vodafone label on the statusbar and more, but I don't know if I'm willing to use KingRoot in the process. I'm used to SuperSU and Xposed Framework working flawlessly, so I'm really 'scared' on this one.
Thanks

Don't give up just yet, I do understand your desperation, as I feel almost the same as you, but you'll see someone will find a way, at least I hope...
This phone its awesome for its price point, and would be absolutely marvelous with all the tweaks and adjustments root brings to the table.
Who knows, maybe we'll have a full developed phone (custom ROMs, root, recovery, all of that good stuff), we can only wish someone works on it... :highfive:

I didn't, the phone came as it is out of the box, no software updates were made...
I guess we've found the issue, if the software versions don't match, that means everyone with yours (120FKN1) can root with KingRoot, and everyone with mine (060FFN1) can't...
I've got an issue in my hands I see...

Xperfix

Hi Friends
My wife by mistake deleted important files. Tried Dr. Fone and others but need to root before doing deepscan to recover. I spend hours and but error all the time at 80% because no root access.
I have no choice but to unlock bootloader without backing up TA neither I know how to do it.
Due to late night no time to manually sideloads, but bought Xperfix to do the job to TWRP/ROOT/DRM
So far twrp installed successfully but not rooted nor installed magisk . Let me pull the usb at 20% and wait twrp to reload after 100% nothing done. Maybe twrp not mounted system properly?
I am also worry now after seeing others saying that unlocking bootloader will effect the camera functions?
But as per xperfix 3.0 it says the problem been solved.
How is this Xperfix does it really work ?

try flashing magisk 16 in recovery and see if you get root.

When you bought Xperiafix you also bought support from the developer. Go back to sToRm//'s website and raise a support ticket.
If you include the txt logs found in c:\xperiafix that would be helpful
I have used his tool on my XZ1 compact, so I know it works, but getting the right drivers installed on your Windows machine is a real minefield. Windows chooses the wrong drivers by default when you connect the phone with TWRP running. This sounds like your problem to me. You have to manually add them with the phone connected TWRP on.
Also, you can't just install the drivers in Windows 10 (Windows doesn't tell you it failed to install the drivers, you just can't connect.), you have to go into safe mode and install the drivers with 'driver signing disabled',
There is a lot of helpful advice in the original Xperiafix thread, along with the links to drivers required.
Edit: you have to pull the USB at 20%, go into TWRP yourself (from powered off, hold volume down & power, wait until phone starts, keep volume down for a few more seconds) and swipe to make system partion writeable, then reconnect phone and Xperiafix will do the rest.

appreciate your reply , I have tried many times reflashing with xperifix when twrp reach 20% to restart it wont restart auto I need follow on screen instructions to do and mounted the system untic the and finished to 100% but again no magis and no drm . I copied the magis file from xperifix folder and flashed directly now have rooted already. Only thing why I have been using xperfix because of camera issue and is green. Support no reply yet since yesterday.
Can I manually flash the drm and fix the camera issue ? Please guide me my wife is so sad about this incident.

Can you post the logs from the C:\Xperiafix folder?
Once you have reached the 20% step and gone into TWRP to enable system file write and plug the phone back in, Xperiafix continues if it does nothing then the drivers are wrong.
You will know when the drivers are right as the phone restarts itself once it's been reconnected to Xperiafix.
Read this thread on the original app, everything is explained and the drivers linked

Explanation from sToRm//, help is on the way!

I got it fixed by reinstalling and use WIN10 . Now all set. Appreciate to all my friends on XDA for assisting me.
I want to now after this will I be still getting OTA from Sony can update or need manually update?

Android pay will work if you follow Xperiafix. Magisk will install and if you select 'magisk hide' in the settings you will be able to use android pay. It's ok, you don't have to pretend it's your wife's phone

Hi Mate
Thats what we did but failed with Android Pay at counter.
Also bank applications refuse to install because phone was rooted.
Do banking applications works on rooted phone?

Have you tried to run Safteynet after you have installed Magisk? (on the Magisk start page)
Do you have Xposed installed?
There is no way to hide Xposed and it will fail Safteynet
I have several banking apps that work and one that refuses to install

Nope I did not install xposed.
Here is the problem after clicked start safety net the status all are failed.
ctsProfile:false
basicintegrity:false
Magisk version v.16.0
Installed ver 16.3

Got is solved by hiding safety check passed.
But still the citibank app refused to run due to rooted phone.
Anyone tried this app if working?
Regarding android pay do I need to run safety net check each time before using it?

Now we have received notifications of OTA Updates I want update her phone . Do I need to follow exactly as per below link ?
How about settings and data will that remain? Because I use TWRP on my other phones to flash roms which is fast and safe.
Why we dont have same solution for Sony but need use newflasher tools?
