Been awhile since I tried to Root anything and my guy at MetroPCS talked me into buying this Alcatel 7 says he just got it in so I'm guessing it hasn't been out long,
That being said is there anyway to get a Root on this thing? Or twrp not sure if I need a custom rom (again it's been awhile last phone I had was a aristo) any help or input would be great just would like to know what I'm dealing with thanks in advance!
Edit: Sorry just seen sticky about questions!

Okay, so i come from the Nexus One now having the T-Mobile G2X which is a pretty good phone and already some roots have came out which is great since i could try to back up all my apps from my Nexus One to my new T-Mobile G2X.
Okay, i know the the Universal Androot has the ability to root and unroot your phone with a simple touch of just one button WITHOUT unlocking the bootloader or even restarting
(If you guys didnt know about this, click here to learn more)
Okay, so i heard there is a new app called "SuperOneClick" but im not sure if it works for the T-Mobile G2X (Yes, i know there is something called Google and yes i googled it but i get like 20 different answers)
So im asking this:
Is this "SuperOneClick" compatible with the T-Mobile G2X?
Will it be able to root AND unroot my phone with one touch? (Like the Universal Androot)
Also, there are many threads about this and i cant find the original thread but i know its from this forum, can someone post a link to the thread about this "SuperOneClick" or maybe a thread that tells you how to root the T-Mobile G2X using the "SuperOneClick"?
Thanks!

Tried to do it and got errors, i think someone needs to make a video on how to do it.
Hey guys i need a little bit of help. Im trying to root my HTC one from Verizon but cant seem to find where and how to do it. I have searched thru Google, YouTube, multiple android forums but they all seem to come to a dead end because of the bootloader. Im not new to android and rooting but i have been away for a couple of years. I have been on an iphone. i had a droid x, and Razr and i rooted both and had custom roms installed so i think i can still do it if possible. Anyways can someone give me a link to the latest method and some easy to follow directions of how to do it if possible. Sorry if this has been covered before and thanks in advance.
How do you root the ZTE Compel running Android Kitkat 4.4.2?
Here is how I got the phone and why I need to root it.
My parents got me my first android phone for my birthday and I thought "Hey the ZTE Compel looks good. Its got the latest version and everything" I was so wrong. It came with 4GB of storage(The OS took 3GB) and it won't let me do anything with this 32GB SD(or any SD) I have. I can't put any apps on SD so I decided to root. I am decent in Linux so I already know what rooting is. So I download towelroot and its not compatible with my phone. Tried all the modstrings. They all froze. Also I can't seem to find a manual method. Can anyone out there help me root my ZTE Compel?
Seriously.
Its been like a24 hours now and not even a reply saying "I don't know about the phone." I posted this thread hoping to find some expert out there who knew. Im good at computer programming and decent in Linux, but no way an expert in android. If some expert out there sees this maybe you root this phone the exact same way as another new less common ZTE phone.
Thanks.

Thanks but I have already tried that . Any other method or a modstring that works? Temp root modstring won't even work.
Im getting impatient now.
Its hard to believe that some phones can be rooted in just 1 click and I have tried a lot of things but if you have something(even if it requires a computer) please let me know.
Thanks.

I too need help to root ATT Compel. I've tried kingroot Towel, Superoneclick. Not tech enough to understand how to use manual.
I have the same issue. I thought this being a newer phone it would be looked into.

Yes please someone root this phone or find a way to get rid of all the crap that comes preloaded on it. I had to buy this phone because my SGS4 broke and I'm not up for the promotion price for a new one. Got this phone and its a powerful little phone. But man is the internal memory crap and it doesn't support app2sd. So I am always running into insufficient storage problems. I would appreciate someone rooting this device. Whoever roots this device or sends me info on how to root it successfully you got my donation. That's a promise.
Oh and I have tried towelroot, root genius and basically searched the web and there is very little talk on this phone. Maybe it is still too new. Obviously it is not a SGS5 or a Nexus but it is still a cost efficient phone with a quad core processor. Besides its horrible limited built-in storage its a great phone without having to be locked into a contract. Its limited storage can be easily fixed by adding the app2sd feature or just giving us root. That would help a lot. If a dev couple step in and help us out that would be great. You'll have my donation.

Mark me down under 'also interested in this.'
I'm also waiting to find a rooting solution on this phone.... Here's hoping someone is cool enough to help us Compel owners out!
Doesn't look like they are interested in advancing the Z830.
Hi Boys. This Lady Is Your Savior.
Awesome. Ironically I decided to trade it in for an Asus PadFone X Mini. Now I am waiting for root on that. Just did the trade 2 days ago. The irony. However I said I would donate and I am a man of his words. Send me a PayPal or Google wallet link. You deserve a coffee. Thanks!

...still interested in rooting my Compel. I've tried everything I can find, from Cydia Impactor to mucking about via ADB and Linux. Any help greatly appreciated.

I'm guessing her claims of our devices' root-salvation proved premature.

So where's the help? I don't see any post or nothing in your post...
Please help!:crying:
Near as I can tell, no one has found an exploit by which to gain root on the ZTE z830 Compel. That's why none of the downloadable root-kits work on it. The "manual method" (as worked on my ZTE Valet) of copying SU & such over using adb, then changing their file permissions won't work for the same reason... There has to be something to exploit in order to get temporary permissios to muck about in the OS files.

Hi guys, been lurking these forums off and on for awhile but I finally decided to make an account in attempt to my root my S5.
Generally I have a decent technical understanding of the android system but root is something i've never dived into completely so I had some questions and concerns. My biggest concern is that I attempted to root the phone a few months ago (I believe it was with..kingroot? if that sounds right) but failed, I'd like to try to root successfully but am wondering if the previous attempt could mess anything up and if so, how to fix that.
I was only wondering what exactly I would need to root the device, as in downgrading OS(?) or if only certain models are elligible or the like. Last but not least Id be interesting in finding the "best" rooting tutorial (assuming the stickied one isnt)
Thanks a lot guys, looking forward to getting into this!

Well first you need to tell us about your phone, like what software version you're running currently?

If you are on builds OE1 or OG5 you cannot root, downgrade, or do anything. You are stuck with stock. If you have anything before OE1 you have options.
Thanks for the replies guys sorry I wasnt more specific. Im running Android 5.0 and my build number is LRX21T.G900VVRU2BOG5 , is that what you mean by build? If so, is the root for it just not figured out yet or is there something stopping the device from being rooted permanently?

That is the build I was talking about. Between the locked bootloader and the security patches, it would seem the device is permanently stopped from being rooted.
