This platform was dead before it started. Sorry to say. They can't get root with a locked bootloader. Verizon won't do it.

There are many Android experts that could unlock the bootloader Right ? Is it how it works ??? If yes that means they could unlock it ..
Sent from my VS987 using Tapatalk
My understanding, not as a programmer by any means...is that the phone needs to have an unlocked bootloader prior to even having the ability to gain root. If the service provider (Verizon) doesn't unlock this, root cannot happen in a traditional sense. Carriers such as T-Mobile have a root for this phone as they come with unlocked bootloaders. You wont see root on the Verizon variant.

no there isnt hope unless u figure it out the "experts" have tried time and time again
the bootloaders arent locked they are signed with a very special key that would take ever computer together in the worl roughly 200000 years plus to brute force into. verizon and att are the worst
now you all know. as said before if u wanted to root you should have studied before buying a "locked" device
if u want root either get a rootable device or figure it out on your own
as with the g4 there will more than likely never be root for these "locked" devices
not being an ass just the cold hard truth

they cant unlock the bootloader or it would have been done
lgs verity key prevents this through qfused motherboards highly encrypted partitions that the bootloader verifys and if one thing is off bam lg secure boot error.
which again is basicly hardcoded into the device.
no one is going to waste their time trying a 99.9% impossible feat
The phone is just not popular enough the Verizon Galaxy S7 I believe is unlocked for the bootloader. If the phone is popular enough a developer will work on it.

You need to be on marshmallow or have anti-rollback to be 0 which <1% of ppl have. Also, it's not a complete root, so although you have root permissions, it's unstable and you have no root manager (SuperSU/Magisk/etc.)

So I know this Phone is still new, but is there any progress on Root with latest firmeware or Unlocking Bootloader??
If there is where are the threads? I've searched and didnt find much. Im a little worried that with the Samsung S4 and htc one around this phone wont get any love.
Unfortunately we just have to be patient, there is no ETA on root or unlocked bootloader. But from what I read Motorolla is making very hard to unlock there phones. Unless its a dev phone, but I would just be happy with root.

Also beware of the update that wants to install, i would hold off on installing that in case they patch up a exploit.
Root is definitely a necessity. Realistically, I don't see the point of a custom ROM since, IMO, the whole point of buying one of these things is for all of the out of the box customizations. It would suck to lose them for some subpar custom ROM experience.

AFAIK, if you bought this phone and hoped for root. You have been sadly mistaken. I don't forsee root in your immediate future. If you can't stand the thought of not having root then you should return the device.

Honestly I think this thing is flawless. The only reason I would look to root it is to remove the bloatware and free up more of my storage. First time Ive ever said this, but the they got stock right this time.

I know this thread is sort of old and if anyone took the OTA update to 4.4 prior to root you have been screwed on rooting after. Check out this thread there is a way. I did it, it took 3 days total and some frustration with google translate but it worked.

Attention!!! this thread is for the ZTE Grand X Max (z787) NOT the ZTE Grand X Max+ (z987) Do not attempt to flash anything meant for the Max+.
Hi everyone,
I recently purchased the ZTE Grand X Max and of course the first thing I did was look for a root method. No luck. So, I wanted to start a support thread for this device and hopefully get root, cwm/twrp and all the goodies that come with root.
Please feel free to reply and maybe together we can make this phone great. I will monitor and update this thread with the latest news involving this device.

Everyone that's honestly willing to donate to this man ask him for help on this device he worked the galaxy avant when no one else would he's awesome! But he's busy and I'm not affiliated with him in any way other then knowing his work on the avant! So not like he's asking me to say this I just got this device I've messaged him about it and I know I'll donate if he can get it going! Ppl come on here and think these roots and rims magically appear they don't these guys take there own time to work these things and it's nice of them yes there not doing it with the promise of a pay check there doing it because they like the challenge I believe and to help ppl out the least we can do is give a donation to thank them for the time I'm not a developer I'm anyway don't know any except from here and other sites but I'm just saying we want someone to take time away from what ever else there fling to help with our phone let's make it worth it!
Get ahold of SHABBYPENGUIN he is good!
Scratch that can't be done ZTE patched the way it used to be rooted can't do it any more and good chance this phone will never see root that sucks but I opposed to donate to hey him to work on it and he says can'tbe done!

So far, that's $20 ($10 from previous poster [Muhff], $10 from me) that is offered to find a way for us ZTE users to root our phones! I'll sweeten the deal and pay $30 myself if I see a post in this thread that contains the solution before August 2015.

i believe you can do a full backup with adb/fastboot by opening cmd and saying
fastboot boot twrp.img
for example. then, you can open the backup file and find the recovery img in there as long as you still have the stock recovery.
I found it here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2310682
It would be very very helpful to me (and anyone with this phone) if someone with the stock recovery and fastboot + adb on their computer could upload the stock recovery image to the internet.
Im not very expert in it myself, im sure if someone with real knowledge swoops by they could do this in a second.. provided they have the phone.

You will need to install the TWRP.apk then boot into it. Via the power and vol. up buttons at the same time or use the TWRP.apk to boot into the recovery panel. Once booted into the TWRP recovery panel you will be able to install the su file.
I am working on a stock recovery image.
I just followed your video and it worked out. no problems.

CAUTION with 5.1.1 UpdateG925PVPU2B0F7I've been spending some time reading T-mobiles issues with the update. This isn't a super new conversation, but is probably new to many Sprint users. The update appears have rollback protection, which effects both kernel and bootloader from what they are saying... Which I find slightly confusing since I didn't think that their was a locked bootloader on the US versions (maybe someone can assist with that)
Figured we could start the conversation early for Custom Root/Recovery/etc. users, so that we may save some of us some trouble with Soft/Hard brinks in the next week or so.
This is the thread I've been looking at.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s6-edge/general/psa-odin-5-1-1-t3136151
EDIT:
NO, the bootloader is not locked with the 5.1.1 update.
Rather, "Factory Reset Protection" (an Android thing - not a Samsung thing!) is now an option, which allows you to lock the bootloader yourself, protecting your device from someone installing a custom recovery, wiping your device and making it their own. It makes the device somewhat less valuable, and therefore (supposedly) less likely to be stolen.
The 5.1.1 upgrade looks to be a "permanent" upgrade, meaning we're not able to revert back to 5.0.2 kernels and recoveries.
So, I would suggest to sit tight with your current set up. In order to customize our devices we will need to wait for:
A) Root for 5.1.1
-Root has been achived: http://forum.xda-developers.com/spr...elopment/5-1-1-stock-of7-kernel-root-t3153396
B) Samsung to post the source code for the new kernel.
C) Custom Recovery
-Recovery has been achived:
Once we have the above, we can get back to modding our devices.
If I'm wrong, someone please correct me.
Interesting article, I remember several other older Samsung devices where you could not downgrade bootloaders and modems. IE Galaxy S3, note 3, s5. But there was still root, Roms and the ability to flash kernels. Hopefully there's no need to go back anyway. The kernel thing is something new so I may hold off on upgrading. Thanks for the info

This is my first Samsung, so the whole root recovery process was almost too smooth since I've been on the HTC side for 5 years. Unlocking bootloaders, S-off and requesting tokens to push.. Ugh, as must as I likes HTC and Sense, that sucked.
I think I'm holding off as well, untill Sac23/ Ram9200 might have spare time to look over the update first and make sense of it all and could at least get it to where V.2 is right now. But it sounds like the Kernel could be our hold up, without Hybridmax's current support.

Yea but based off of my years of experience and having Samsung devices, I'm pretty sure that someone will find a way moving forward, but going back probably won't happen. I too had an HTC evo years back lol and I couldn't stand the root process. I feel your pain. But yea it may be wise just to wait for a while on the update

In marshmallow it may not be possible to root the system without the bootloader being unlocked..
That is why the other LG phones with marshmallow bt no bootloader unlock are still waiting for just a simple root..
The bootloader of marshmallow itself verifies for system modification and override root.
-however there may be some way bt now it will be much more difficult to root itself.

I thought there was a new security feature that wouldn't allow you to root it unless bootloader was unlocked. I could me mistaken

You can open a temporary root, modify and thats all...
You dont need root 24/7

In marshmallow it may not be possible to root the system without the bootloader being unlocked..
That is why the other LG phones with marshmallow bt no bootloader unlock are still waiting for just a simple root..
The bootloader of marshmallow itself verifies for system modification and override root.
-however there may be some way bt now it will be much more difficult to root itself.

in my G3 D855 on MM 6.0 i put root on it even with bootloader locked so i dont know why G Flex2 will be different...
nothing about BL locked, it can be rooted anyway.

Sorry guy, you are not the first one who has seen this option it's there since a few updates and doesn't do anything...
Android 6 requires a modified kernel in order to have root. There may be ways around it, but it is a compliaction for sure.
I´m not sure what everybody is using root for, but it´s not a problem for me. You can always download the system image, do any changes you like on your computer (like changing DPI, which is a must for me) and flash it to the phone afterwards.
Also, @adribarrueco please change the title. It´s not Android 6 and it´s not even Android 6 source code. This is just the opensource files that LG used in their flavor of Android 6. The complete source has tens of GB of data.

The answer from LGs Blog ... They can say, that they can't say anything
Damn I fall for that title every time.
Original poster, please change the title of that thread.
The title for this thread is bull...
Stop bumping this thread let it die.
I had sprint LG G2, for G2 new lg open source release would mean update comes to phone in 2-3 days . Open source code release generally means build is final and ready to hit phones or no further changes to open source code.
Given that H955 model is released in many countries, may be LG will start rolling out 6.0 in some country this week.
I hope lg relase any solution for 9008.... my flex 2 is dead

Rejoice people, Nokia just released an official bootloader unlock method for Nokia 8 confirming via a tweet from Juho Sarvikas.
Please check the tweet or Nokia website for more information, I am not yet allowed to post links/urls on XDA threads yet.
I will not definitely do that! Cause, it is a high risk to unlock a device with a cronic image retention problem. I don't want to make my warranty void until I can completely trust this device!

Tried to install from both official webpage and google drive. No luck.

So, A big question to all participants. If we have already unlocked bootloader via unofficial one, do we need to unlock it via official method?
I want to know if it poses no big deal if you have already unlocked bootloader previously using unofficial method.

Simply speaking: the result is the same, because unofficial method calculated the same keys official does. You don't need to unlock again as it's unlocked already.
btw just would like to put this in this topic where it belongs: official announcement post about unlocking https://twitter.com/sarvikas/status/1045298106818949120
