Hey everyone,
So this is pretty straight foreward, I'm attempting to root my Galaxy Core Prime (G360T, from T-Mobile in US) and I have had absolutely zero luck finding ANYTHING related that model number.
I've found plenty of stuff here, but it is all related to the G360H, G, and even the T1 (i think?) I've tried Kingo, Odin, and a few other things and I'm getting absolutely no where.
I'm wondering if anyone out here has had any luck with rooting this device in particular, or if maybe there is something I'm missing? I'm pretty new to the idea of rooting devices but I'm a proficient technically so I'm not exactly sure what is going on.
Is it T-Mobile software or something blocking the ability to root? I can't believe there is that much of a difference between my phone and say the G360H.
Thanks in advanced for the help, as I'm totally clueless at this point.

There are many of us using the MetroPCS version G360T1 that will gladly try any root method you get going. Feel free to contact directly if you need some testing help. While waiting for root, I tried Package Disabler Pro 3.7 that was released September 15. It works fine on the G360T1, although it says "Custom" under "Device status" in "About Device -> Status." Haven't gone to Download Mode to see if the triangle is set or not, but I'm guessing the flash counter has been tripped. I'm not worried about it too much, and it may have been tripped with some other attempt to root the device. Still, this app was just what I needed to disable all the junkware and still have a smooth working Lollipop 5.1.1 while waiting for the real goodies.

The thing is i got g3601 and its running kitkat and no update availble on it ??? so i am porting 5.1 for it.Recovery has been patched up and working kinda fine but need to fix alot of issues.normally i dont develop for mid range mobiles but my brother got one so that is why i started with this one.my first projects are z3 + and xperia lines.I will let you know when it is completed for testing.
Hmm, I thought this was for SM-G360T and the Samsung Galaxy Core Prime that is out for T-Mobile and running Lollipop 5.x. Is the G3601 a typo or different model? The MetroPCS G360T1 will work fine with the firmware and files from T-Mobile G360T because they are the same device and even same network provider. Anyway, it looks like someone was kind enough to modify the kernel source code the Samsung posted just a week or two ago. Here is the news, but be warned that it will trip the KNOX flag:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-core/development/kernel-root-root-sm-g360t1-5-1-1-t3203522
I put my G360T1 in download mode and it still says official and no warning triangle. I mentioned that it said custom in the About Phone page after doing other terminal entries and running Package Disabler Pro 3.7. Some may want to wait to root the device until there is a deodex'd rom out there to run xposed framework. I like the slimed down stock 5.1.1 and there are a bunch of garbage programs hogging the decent entry level device resources. More news to come...

My specs:
Model #: SM-360T
Android Version: 5.1.1
Baseband Version: G360TUVU1AOF9
I migrated from Nokia 521 - Windows 8.1 phone to this Android device because of the litany of apps I could use for productivity. I am highly disappointed that I am unable to revoke permissions of applications to resources I think they don't need. So, I basically use phone to make calls and text. If someone has successfully rooted THIS smartphone version, please advise. I'm a little technical, too.
Try this: https://autoroot.chainfire.eu. find your model and download the file you need, unzip it then put your phone in download mode and use odin 3.7 to send it to the phone. That outta be enough. I have not rooted this particular device in a while but I have rooted plenty of others using that method and it works like a charm every time. I just did a quick look up and your model is listed there. Give it a try and post your results.
Thank you so much, Geevil!!!
Appreciate your response.

Hello how would one root the sm-g360t and get custom recovery on it ?
Sent from my SM-G360T using Tapatalk
I have the sm g360t1, though no computer to connect the phone to. I see this phone listed in the cf-auto root repository linked above- not sure if that method needs a computer. King root may have worked, though the root gone by when using w0lfdroid's
Kingroot removal/supersu installer. It worked on orher phones.
King root is such spyware. I really want to try something else...

Yes King Root is bad. Pretty much like malware for your device. Don't use cf-auto-root either, as it's kind of a generic root and doesn't really function properly. I'm helping people constantly fix their devices after either tryung King or CF. Use Trapkernel to root the SM-G360T1 & SM-G360T. It's quick and easy and roots the device with no problems.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=62859013 Here is the recovery you should use too in case anyone's wondering. You flash it the same way as root.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=66266209
I recommend using version 3.0.1-0 though, as version 3.0.2-0 has had problem flashing certain roms for some reason.
Thanks bogarty, I was able to root and flash custom recovery on my phone with both links you provided here.. I have the T-Mobile version (SM-G360T) but everything went well
Dont know if ppl still trying to root this device but I just found out that you can download the rooting file trough chainfire for this model. Here´s the link: https://download.chainfire.eu/767/C...to-Root-cprimeltetmo-cprimeltetmo-smg360t.zip

Temp Root on LG G Stylo LS770 M 6.0 ( Boost / Sprint )
Attention if you decide to try this and end up with a BRICK / Expensive paperweight or your device decides to transform and destroys your home town that's on you. You have been warned . So just read all of this instructions (and read the O.P more then once)
I can confirm temp root on the LG G Stylo LS770 M 6.0 ( Boost / Sprint ) . Perm root will work with Android OS 2.1 - 5.1 & TEMP Root for Android OS 6.0 - ?
Downloads
Download King root ( Suggest from their website and not the Play store ) http://www.kingroot.net/
Download BusyBox from the Play store ( I suggest BusyBox from Jrummy ) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.busybox.installer&hl=en
Download a Root Cheaker to verify root , I suggest https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.joeykrim.rootcheck&hl=en
Instructions
Download all the necessary APP's and Files .
Run KingRoot and just follow the in app instructions ( Normally you will get to around 23% and the app will say failed to root device but it hasn't yet for me )
Run whatever Root checker you decided to download and verify root ( if you didn't obtain root just run KingRoot again )
Run and install BusyBox
PROFIT
Now you are able to use Apps and Mods until you re-boot your phone.
-Permanent root is reversible, open the app and there will be a button to unroot
-Temporary root will be removed after a reboot
Temporary root
These are usually one-step apps that you install on your phone, and they give you root access until the next time your phone is restarted. They are a great way to get your feet wet,and you can do a lot with them -- both good and bad. The ease of use makes temporary rooting pretty popular, and it's a fine choice if your reasons for rooting are to use root-enabled apps from the Market.
That being said, some apps just aren't going to work unless you go all out and permanently root your phone. This depends a lot on which phone you're using, as manufacturers have an endless supply of dirty tricks to keep the hardware you paid for under lock and key. You'll either have to ask users with the same model as you're using, or use trial and error. The good news is that the popular root-enabled apps, and the ones you're most likely to want to use should work without a problem. Titanium Backup, Wireless Tether, Root Explorer and the like should do just fine.
The last thing to keep in mind, is that not all changes will be permanent. For example -- using a utility to "freeze" bloatware (applications from your carrier that you don't want or need) may not keep them frozen and hidden after a reboot. Also some of the newer HTC phones have an evil little bug a feature that reverts any changes you have made to the system, bringing it back to the way it was before you started hacking away at it. In those cases, the only fix is to perma-root your phone.
Permanent root
This is where things get a bit hairy. Some phones, like the Nexus One, don't need to be rooted -- they can be unlocked via the Android SDK and modified at will. Other phones, like the OG Droid, are really easy to root, and will only take a few minutes. Finally, some phones, like the T-Mobile MyTouch 4G force you to jump through flaming hoops and follow often cryptic instructions, laden with warnings about bricking your phone. That's a whole 'nother rant for a different venue, but it does need said so that you know what you may be getting yourself into. You'll need to do your homework, ask any questions you feel are unanswered or are unsure of, and weigh all this into your decision. Everyone who says "It's easy!" (including me) really means they found it easy -- that doesn't necessarily mean you will.
Now that I've sufficiently scared you, it's time to talk about why anyone in their right mind would go through this. Besides the advantages of keeping changes persistent between reboots, and those few Market apps that won't work with a temp-rooted phone, you have what many consider the best part of owning an Android phone -- custom ROMs.
To flash any custom recovery, kernel, or ROM, you're going to need to have permanent root access to your phone. Flashing new firmware is very low level stuff, and you need read and write access to everything. The good news is that usually the rooting is the most difficult part, and a custom recovery gives you access to a tool that can take a snapshot of your system, and save it as a restore point. That's a good thing, because once you start flashing, you're hooked -- and a single command restore is priceless.
Hopefully I've helped a little in your decision making, and remember -- there is always help in the XDA forums. Find the specific area for your model of Android phone, and look for the link at the top to the hacking section. Those guys live for this stuff, and will steer you in the right direction.

Somehow after freezing few apps most Google one, rebooted and got code: 1003 system been modified and stuck in boot loop at initial boot, just reboots after LG logo. Tried to factory reset and LG tool, already running 6.0 latest OS. Had root, busy box easy install and rebooted it, stuck. Soft brick?
I'm sorry to hear that , I've personally never had a problem uninstalling apps on the LG G Stylo but i only really uninstall the bloat from my carrier . There is a Safe To Debloat Guide for our phone but I haven't personally tried it out yet .
Sadly we don't have the KDZ file for our phone so you cant just simply re-flash your phone . But hopefully that doesn't mean we cant get your phone back up and running . There are a few different things we can try .
Can you give me all the information about your phone as you can like carrier, model number , software version and so on .

Ya they did a number on locking this device . How were you able to get a replacement so fast ?
I'm just hoping we can get fastboot working so we don't have these types of problems.

STAY AWAY FROM KING ROOT! I used King Root last night to obtain root on Marshmallow for my LGMS631 running the official T-Mobile update. Root was successful however the system became very unstable to the point which I decided to unroot and uninstall King Root completely. After restarting my phone I was prompted with Secure Boot Error and MODIFIED. If I didn't have access to a stock KDZ my phone would have been a complete paperweight with no other choice but to send it in to LG for repair. My suggestion to all LG G Stylo users that are not with T-Mobile or MetroPCS will be that you avoid King Root at all costs. Without a KDZ and the LG Flash Tool you will nit be able to recover from a soft brick.
No KDZ available for Boost/Sprint
Anyone got a way to edit hosts file?
Do not root 6.0 boost until bootloader has been unlocked.
it will need to be rooted
it will need to be rooted
as stock marshmallow 6.0 uses too much memory upto 886 mb
only 65 mb free
As of right now we haven't been able to pull the system.img

Yes. I did replace the hosts file with using kingroot. I rebooted and was fine. I later bricked it doing something else and sent it to LG for free repair. I haven't rooted since. Isn't there the tot files posted to recover from a brick on Boost?
Now I'm using NetGuard (here on XDA) that uses a VPN instead of root to implement a hosts list. I also have my DPI set to 270 but that can be done via ADB without root. :]
Hey everyone I was hoping for a little help on this 1. I just purchased the Samsung Galaxy Sol (SM- J321AZ) AND wanted to make a back up and possibly flash a custom Rom on this device if at all possible. I have the Galaxy Tab E 8.0 (SM- T377P) and third to do the same thing without making a backup and not it's pretty much a paper weight as every time I download a .tar file it won't flash and none of the major websites have a factory or custom Rom so that I can use it again. (If anyone can help on that as well that would be SUPER AWESOM). Anyways, I don't wanna make the same mistake with this device as the other so I figured I would ask for some help. I need to network I lock the Sol phone as I'm a T- Mobile user but this was the only phone they had at the store that was not a flip phone. Hope someone out there can help.
Thanks in advance.

Sent from my Samsung Galaxy Sol
Galaxy Sol? I gotta admit, I had to look that one up; never heard of that one before. It appears to be brand new, having 6.0 and released just last month, but it's not even on Cricket's website. Weird.
As far as custom ROMs or even root goes, you're probably SOL (pun totally intended), at least for right now. However, Cricket does like to rename a lot of their phones that are otherwise identical to others, so it's possible a root method may exist.
When it comes to carrier unlocking, things can get a bit tricky. Cricket sells phones for fairly cheap because they only sell them to their own customers. In other words, they know they'll at least make up the difference with a minimum of a couple months worth of service. I gather you've purchased this phone second-hand. If it's not already unlocked, you might not be able to get it unlocked short of one of those services you see on eBay. Contact Cricket about it. They have rules and limitations about when and if they'll unlock their phones. Root/ROMs typically can't do anything regarding carrier unlocking. Interesting though that so many newer Cricket devices, even the cheapos, happen to have band 12 for T-Mobile.
I just bought this at best buy a few weeks ago. This phone seems to be exactly the same as the Samsung Galaxy Amp Prime SM-J320 with the exception it being 8GB.

Either way, I was unable to find a stock fw for either of these phones however the firmware allow for OEM unlock. I was looking to at least root and clear away the garbage because out of 8gb I can only use 3GB (also install apps to SD). I don't want to do this unless I have at least a stock fw backup rom to load.
Is there any back door way of downloading this stock firmware? I've look far and wide. Any assistance would ease the pain. Thanks.
here is a link to the stock firmware

This phone is currently $50 at Best Buy. I want to buy it for my mom(she's using my old Nexus 4, which is slowly dying), and this seems like a decent replacement. The thing is, she's on T-Mobile. If this can be unlocked to use on any gsm carrier, that'd be great. I guess I'll have to look around eBay or ask Cricket about unlocking it.

And then I get to deal with the frp lock. I don't have the info for that either, But would it be easier to bypass the frp instead?
I'm not entirely sure but aren't the spec for this the same or almost the same as the Galaxy J3 or the Galaxy amp prime? Would anything from those devices work on this. Like a rom port or root method

that selinux root method earlier in the thread does work for root, and after root just adb shell pull all partitions to port twrp or brew a rom. the specs for the j3 and prime are nearly identical so porting from those two should not be to hard. i went to a new phone so i wont be doing anything further with it. unless i get bored and decide to fish it out the junk drawer for something to do. https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B1rwlbcYZ8i6NldnV0ppVHJ3Z1U thats the link to the adb file for root and the instructions are here https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/release-root-samsung-galaxy-prime-j320az-t3493077 . Sorry thats an Odin flashable boot img with selinux tweeked. sorry havent paid much attention to this phone lately
Ok thanks I'm going to see what I can do. At least TWRP and from there compile a rom. I have nothing but time and patience so I'm gonna build cm13 and see what happens.

Hi all,
I want a rooted phone but my last two phones (LG Stylo 2 and Samsung J727V) seem to be unrootable despite research and no lack of trying. I'm currently trying to root an older phone but there's no root for it with its current firmware and firmware rollback isn't working. It feels like someone in the mix (carrier/manufacturer/OS developer) is invested in making rooting as hard as possible. I really just want to go ahead and get a phone that is easily rootable on a carrier that allows it. Is there a good rule of thumb like, "look, go sign up with this carrier and get this phone today and come back to XDA?"
Thanks!

have you try kingroot? kingroot only will add a admin account. it won't change the stock Rom of your device. if it works for your device this is the fastest way to do it. without pc. just a apk file

Did you unlock your bootloader?
Can we use CVE-2019-2215 exploit to gain root?
Here is a list of Phones affected by the hack.
A “non-exhaustive list” of vulnerable phones include:
Pixel 1
Pixel 1 XL
Pixel 2
Pixel 2 XL
Huawei P20
Xiaomi Redmi 5A
Xiaomi Redmi Note 5
Xiaomi A1
Oppo A3
Moto Z3
Oreo LG phones
Samsung S7
Samsung S8
Samsung S9
See the ars article for more details. I wonder if we have a dev willing to turn this into a root app? And what's the eta for that!
https://arstechnica.com/information...ty-that-gives-full-control-of-android-phones/
looks promising from what im reading about it, i have yet to find an application using it to look at though, also, i hardly know how to make a root so dont expect anything from me
There's a POC on the google thread...just need someone to provide the means to root...and/or just write a bit to the correct partition or whatever to enable OEM unlocking:
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/project-zero/issues/detail?id=1942
POC: https://bugs.chromium.org/p/project-zero/issues/attachmentText?aid=414885
Looks promising, sounds like we still need a dev to pick this up. It's all there just needs a properly setup root app and we can gain root.
Here is the poc compiled:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/10kJ9LvWq1AH1wdourLszXDMPSPbMMNXp/view?usp=drivesdk
You have to use an untrusted app i.e android terminal, termux, connectbot etc.. from the app copy it over to the apps home directory.. chmod +x poc3... then ./poc3.. itll tell you kernel was exploited if ur device is vulnerable..
i can confirm p2xl isvulnerable on latest firmware (will be patched in october updates on the pixels)
Dont know if it's possible or not, but I find kinda nonsense to root a device without unlocking bootloader. If you modify something inside the /system partition you need to disable dm-verity as well, for which you also need to flash non-samsung-signed kernel (thats the reason to unlock the bootloader), otherwise the device wont boot.
Also, forget about flashing twrp without UB

I hear you, but if I can just get apps like adaway, titanium backup, etc I'll be happy. There are a lot of apps that need root that I don't also need a custom kernel and don't as far as I know alter the system partition. This limited root was available for many generations of galaxy and note phones.
Front page xda now...

Confirmed. My kernel is clear and root is planted. I am Verizon Pixel 2 android 10, different device but same. will post the process when i have a moment.
can't wait bought pixel 2 just because posted this
i think the POC is specific to Pixel 2. I tried it on a Pixel and Samsung S8 Active and no go. That said, this looks promising. I'm working on a version that will work with Samsung S8 Active. Wrt to root being useless without an unlocked bootloader - not so. There are ways to persist as root without an unlocked bootloader and writing to /system. Will post more if I get anywhere.
Does anyone know or can help with step by step process of using poc zip.I have pixel 2 and don't know how about using poc zip or process of flashing it,thank you Sean.

push it to your phone using adb and run it in the shell. if you're vulnerable you should see "Exploited" if you run uname. this is an exploit that can be used to develop a root, but it needs development.
Yup, I was thinking of the same to use this as a root vulnerability..
I tried to use Qu1ckr00t to root the 955u on pie and it didn't work. The POC needs to be modified to support the s8 and its samsung kernel.
The PoC of Hernandez manipulates kernel data structures, the user process credentials, that are protected by Samsung real time kernel protection (RKP). Normally, the PoC should therefore not work on Samsung devices, or am I wrong with that?
The original PoC was reported to work on S8 and S9. But i fear this was only due to the PoC did not trigger RKP. Will have a look at the original PoC, to assess that ...
So mine ends on writev() returns 0x1000 which means I'm not vulnerable correct? Is that just because the poc isn't made to work with my device or am I not vulnerable in general.
We have https://github.com/grant-h/qu1ckr00t
AFAIK It needs to be modified for S8, currently only working for Pixel 2.
@elliwigy can you help here..

many ppl have already made and posted the poc used there.. u just gotta look around.. but chances r it wont work unless ur device is vulnerable and the poc is tailored to ur kernel/device
i dont own any vulnerable devices so im not working on it personally..
This seems to only be exploitable on Oreo bootloaders.
"ANDROID: binder: remove waitqueue when thread exits." patched the exploit and was added to the G950U kernel when Pie was released.
Therefore, Pie is not exploitable and it seems that anyone running a V6 bootloader will not be able to use this exploit either.
The good news is, if you're running a V5 bootloader, it is theoretically possible to use this exploit. The bad news is I'm using a V6 bootloader. :/

Wow, Thanks for clearing this up, I am on Pie but not sure If I am on the new bootloader or older one as I Never updated when the update mentioned you wont be able to downgrade. ?
