Lost root with the March, 2014 OTA update. Kingo, which worked so easily before, fails to root. None of the Odin-based or 1-Click methods will root it. Is anyone working on a method or prog that will root this phone?

use Towelroot
Hello, i'm new here. I use a Huawei p8 GRA-L09 C469 B160. Anyway, i rooted my phone a few days ago with root genius (which is in chinese) but once it was done there was no super user installed so i downloaded one from the playstore. So now i've been rying to unroot it but it just won't let me, i've tried rooting and unrooting it with king root, kingo root, super su, root genius and still nothing. When i try with root genius it says something about built-in root which my phone doesn't have and the other ones just fail. I've been looking for the original firmware (C469 B160) for hours but i've only found different ones that doesn't restore it. I really need help, please. Been trying to unroot for hours.:crying:

Just received a ZTE N817 ( ZTE Quest ) running KitKat 4.4.4 . I have tried most rooting methods, with no success.
Framaroot, Kingroot, iroot, 360 root, root genius and a few others, with no luck I've rooted dozens of phones with little to no problems...But this one is being tricky.
Has anyone successfully rooted their ZTE Quest ( ZTE N817 ) running 4.4.4
Success
I was able to root my ZTE n817 today using the PC version of iroot v 1.8.8.

Have you tried Eroot? For me it was the only software that worked (Android 4.x)

Anyway you could without PC? I don't have access to one ATM. Thanks
Root
I was unable to root without a PC, but I'm sure as they update the various root methods they will have something that works.

I was able to finally root my ZTE Quest N817 with Kingo Root. I wouldn't root from the normal booted Homescreen.
I F'ed with a few different ways and Modes. Normal boot - FTM mode and Bootloader mode
But I member it finally rooting successfully, I ended up being in FTM mode. When I rebooted the phone. Kingo Roots Superuser popped up and asked me if I wanted to allow permission.
None of these methods worked for me.
this works!!! - weird mode you reboot into and it's weak

FINALLY SUCCESS! AGAIN for the ZTE WELLINGTON n817
The wellington is a tough one.
I just got success again after 4 months.
originally I used iroot and achieved success. It lasted for about 30 min. until I accidentally deleted the rommastersu app. I didnt want it but didnt know I would loose root by deleting it.
This time I did the adb reboot disemmcwp then ran the OLDER VERSION OF KINGO ROOT. The newer versions didnt work for me.
The version I used wAS................. Kingo Android Root Version: 1.4.9 and only download from kingoapp.com the rest of the other places apps were loaded with add-on garabage that you cant opt out of.
Worked for me too. :laugh:

I went to the Eroot website and they warn you to use their "one click service" whatever that is. So how do I use their one click service? I don't want to brick my phone.

Greetings and welcome to assist. It appears the only way to root your device is through recovery. I found this thread, it is for a slightly different model but the experts there may be able to help you
