I cannot seem to install the drivers using .inf files by using most of the methods suggested. How do I install those drivers?
I get an error 'failed to get shell root' if I try to unlock my micromax A73 via using unlockroot.
I also tried using applications like superoneclick, but it does not respond after it reaches 'Shell rooting device - Wait for device'

How to root xolo x900

hello there can any one help me to root xolo x900 i had tried every thing that is available in internet every thing failed is there any way to root it

First make sure you have the following
- Xolo ICS update installed.
- Intel USB driver for Windows
- The Root Installer
-------------------------------------------------
Then,
- Enable USB Debugging mode and then connect your Phone to PC.
- Extract root installer archive and run the runme.bat file.
- In your PC, type 1 in the command prompt for “Make a choice”. your device will ask for Full Restore. You will not loose data. Select Restore my data. Finally, your device will reboot twice and you will be rooted. Note that your screen may flash before the second reboot which is fine.

Managed to Root my xolo x900
I think I've found a way to root my x900. It's currently running the latest version of SuperSU 2.16 and has the stericson busybox installed.
I've tried rooting the x900 with all possible methods and have never been successful. Especially the part where it says 'restore started' then 'restore ended' almost immediately. By no means am I an expert on this and the following was achieved with a lot of trial and error, I've tried to put it down in the simplest way I could.
Warning: Try the following at your own risk.I do not wish to be held responsible for any damage your phone might incur.
These were my steps:
1.I extracted the boot.img(a) from the orange-sandiego ics signed update file found at modaco forum
2. I extracted the boot.img(b) from the official rom downloaded from androidxda.
3. Download and install minimal adb and fastboot installer from XDA forums along with the Intel-usb and adb drivers from androidxda.
4. Download the latest Superuser binary and .apk .zip from the official XDA thread
5. Download the stericson.busybox.apk from the internet.
6. Place the boot images[(a) and (b) renamed to your preference] in the main folder of the minimal adb/fastboot exe, found in C: program files x86...... Also unzip the SU file and place su from the x86 folder and the Superuser.apk into the main adb/fastboot folder along with the busybox.apk.
4. Turn on usb debugging and switch off the phone.
5. Hold vol-up + power keys for about 10seconds to put the phone into bootloader mode. It should say 'droidboot' on the screen.
6. Open a command prompt from the adb/fastboot desktop shortcut you have after you're done installing the adb/fastboot exe.
7. Type in
fastboot devices
Your device will be listed, then type in
fastboot flash boot boot.img(a)
This will flash the boot.img from the orange-ics-update, then type
fastboot reboot
Your phone should now reboot to system but the screen will not be functional and will only show different colors.
8. Now type
adb devices
To confirm your device is visible. Follow this with:
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
exit
exit
adb push su /sdcard/su
adb shell
su
cat /sdcard/su > /system/xbin/su
ln -s /system/xbin/su /system/bin/su
chmod 6755 /system/xbin/su
exit
exit
adb install Superuser.apk
adb install stericson.busybox.apk
adb reboot bootloader
9. Now once again after confirming that the device is recognized in fastboot do this:
fastboot flash boot boot.img(b)
fastboot reboot
Your phone will now reboot to system, and it will have root access and busybox installed.
Good Luck.

Wicked! Thanks for that.
Are you able to install a full Linux distro on the device after it is rooted or is the bootloader still locked?

Now installing cwm recovery using fastboot method

Acer Predator 8 TWRP 3.0.2

TWRP 3.0.2 for Acer Predator 8 ported by Ruben. - If you like my work please donate here, it will also give me a boost to make more things for this device : https://www.paypal.me/RubenCraveiro
----------- -----------
IMPORTANT NOTE ABOUT ROOTING AND UNLOCKING BOOTLOADER:
After flashing TWRP 3.0.2, use the SuperSU 2.46 flashable zip, do NOT use latest version or will result in a bootloop. Good Luck and have fun with rooting. Unlocking bootloader will delete all your data, so please make a backup first. Thank you.
----------- -----------
CREDITS
And also, before anything i would like to say thanks to @arjaylzo for telling me the name of a device with TWRP which helped making this update possible.
REQUIREMENTS
1- Fastboot/ADB Drivers and ADB folder
For drivers: http://adbdriver.com - Download ADB Driver Installer (universal) from the website, extract it, connect device it should detect device(if not, enable USB Debugging and reconnect), and press install, it should install drivers.
For ADB Folder: download this and extract to your main drive(C:/): https://goo.gl/ZTrfBb
2- Unlocked Bootloader (you need requirement 1 to do this)
Instructions for Unlocking bootloader: Go on settings, about device, press build version several times till it says your a developer, go back to settings, press Developer Options, and enable OEM Unlocking. Power off, then press at same time Power and Vol+ button, then connect to pc and open a cmd and write cd c:\\adb and write fastboot oem unlock, then accept the prompt it will give on tablet, and follow the rest of the steps.
----------- -----------
New TWRP bugfix update! Now you can flash stock rom on TWRP without bricking! Download Page updated!
----------- -----------
BUGS:
1- adb shell command needs to be sent before system partition is mounted or it will give an error, after doing adb shell you can mount system and do all the modifications you need.
2- You cant flash any img on twrp it gives an error, im trying to fix.
3- Backups do work, but everytime twrp restarts, the device name seems to change (which means that on /TWRP/BACKUPS/devicename/backupsinside/ changes every reboot so you have to go get the backup inside the old devicename folder and put on the new devicename folder).
----------- ADITIONAL NOTES -----------
Im leaving an unsecured boot image because system seems not want to boot android if anything seems changed. So please if system does not boot after flashing twrp/rooting, flash the unsecured boot img on fastboot
----------- -----------
Steps TO INSTALL TWRP AND ROOT
1. Download and extract the files: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxzG5iupOOSKNTdlRC1Wd0VmTlk/view?usp=drivesdk
2. Power off the tablet.
3. Enter fastboot mode by pressing the power button while holding down Vol -
4. Open up command prompt and navigate to the directory where fastboot.exe is located.
5. Pass the following commands:
fastboot flash boot unsecuredboot.img
fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img
6. Reboot into recovery (TWRP) and install SuperSU v2.46.zip

C:\adb is where my adb and fastboot commands are.. on the downloaded files from Step 1 only the SuperSU zip is needed on the tablet so that you can flash it later on with twrp, the rest you leave on pc and use fastboot to flash TWRP, unsecured boot image, etc...

make sure you didnt put a folder inside the adb folder instead of the actual file and make sure your writing the right name of the file..

also its not unsecboot, the name i added on this thread was just so it would be faster, the name is unsecuredboot.img and not unsecboot.img i guess ill have to edit that in order for people following the tutorial by line dont make these mistakes..

If you flash stock rom, i think you have to reinstall stock recovery, the rom itself already brings stock boot.. after flashing stock recovery it should boot since no modifications have happend

On step 4 You need the fastboot files, (adb & fastboot) just search how to install adb and fastboot drivers, choose the directory where to install them and place the needed files inside that folder and open a command prompt on that folder so you can flash the files.

That means adb drivers arent corrently installed, but i can see you have the folder with adb, all you have to now is download this(drivers): http://dl.adbdriver.com/upload/adbdriver.zip
Extract and open the software eith the tablet plugged in, it should tell of drivers is installer properly or not, and if not you can install, after installing it should work on the cmd the commands..

GCam Without Root & Without Flashing Twrp

To continue this process you need to unlock your bootloader.
Read the full thread before doing anything.
1. Download Platform Tools & Extract it: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip
2. Copy the twrp file for your device into the extracted folder.
Latest Twrp for RN5Pro(Whyred): https://dl.twrp.me/whyred/
after downloading twrp rename it to twrp.img
3. Turn on Usb Debugging on your device and Connect the phone to the usb cable
4. Now open the platform tools folder and in the address section type cmd & hit enter
5. Type commands:
(a) adb reboot bootloader & hit enter(phone is now in fastboot mode)
(b) fastboot boot twrp.img
twrp mode is now open....just touch on keep read only(don't do anything you still now in twrp mode)
(c) adb devices (check your device is connected or not)
(d) adb shell
(e) setprop persist.camera.HAL3.enabled 1 ( be careful while typing or copy paste this line)
(f) exit
(g) adb reboot( your phone will Reboot now)
If gcam force closes then reboot your phone manually.
Done.I am not responsible if you brick your device.

Thank You

I don't see the point in booting to twrp. All you need to do is to boot into fastboot and apply the adb commands.

I think you can't access ADB in fastboot.

Worked for me
I had to unlock the bootloader to follow this method.
First I got the system destroyed message, when I did with the bootloader locked.
Gcam that you suggested didn't work well for me. Then I used another one instead. Now everything is functioning properly.

Not working on my friends locked phone. It is showing "system destroyed".

You'll need to root and set Selinux to permissive because this will make your stock camera lag like hell

Work or not work?

Is the quality of the photos the same thing that happens with the other methods?
is it true that with this method, the quality of the camera gets worse?

the photo quality good better than stock app.
but the issue use gcam cant save front camera with hdr+ active

even with the miui 10 okay?

help
