I know its an older phone, but I like it. I have temp root with kingoroot, is there anyway I can get permanent root without a computer? It's on the original firmware it was released with, it's never been updated. Just wondering.

Has anyone had the problem for the xoom just not rooting?
I've tried it with the AOI tool and the manual way...however when I download the root checker basic and check, it says device is not rooted.
I've had my fair share of fun with phones, but this is my first tablet root and its killing me that I can get this rooted.
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?

Hello,
I recently got the Vodafone Smart Ultra 6 running Android 5.0.2 which is a phone based off the ZTE Blade S6 Lux which is known for having a secure boot loader. Anyway, I have been trying to root it for quite a while.
I managed to root it using Kingroot but it only lasts till a phone restart so it is a temporary root. I have tried the PC version and 3 different versions of Kingroot APK with no permanent root. I even tried replacing Kingroot with SuperSU but that's not working at all as it breaks the temp root. I have tried a few other tools to try root such as kingoroot but they didn't work at all. I really need a root because I want to make a Tasker profile that puts airplane mode on when a NFC tag is scanned and lots of other things, but that's irrelevant.
I don't want to flash a custom ROM as I feel very unconformable with that.
If anyone knows how to make the root stay or any other method on rooting please reply to this thread.
Thanks,
Zacy5000.
Ok, I was thinking perhaps with the temp root I could put some files in the phone which is a different root to make the root stay but I wouldn't know how to go about doing that (if that makes sense).
There aren't many new topics on this model so here we go,
My z3 stock came with 5.0.1 and as far as i know never (the 6616) had the 4.4 as an option. SO downgrading didn't work, so i'm stuck trying to root this with 5.0.1 and after two days of browsing this site there really doesn't seem to be a way to do so. Eventually i said $%#* it and rooted it using kingroot but after rooting it, root checker passed the root but would not give proper access when installing root apps such as busybox and the ta backup tool.
So i didn't realize that the keys ive been trying to save are useless anyways if i update android and the main reason for me going through this is i really don't like 5.0.1. Only thing i haven't really looked into doing is seeing if kingroot will let me unlock the bootloader then trying to flash an update. SO has anyone successfully updated a 6616 z3 (to 6) who didn't start off with 4.4?
So I've been scouring the threads on this phone to see if someone has finally found a way to root the device, but from what I can tell no one has been successful. It's a pretty obscure device so not much effort is put into it, but it would be great if someone had actually found a way. Flashing the cmf auto root file on ODIN always fails. I had heard of a method where there was a way to root earlier firmware versions, but stocking flash firmware to try and downgrade never works on ODIN either.
The best I've managed to do is unlock the sim card. I had heard of some exploit with using MAGISK on a locked bootloader, but it seemed to have failed as well. Is there any possible method to finally gain root access, or am I still up ****'s creek and stuck with a phone that's locked down like fort knox?
Any help would be tremendously appreciated.
