Hi everyone! I own a Gs100 device and decided to search how to root it, if it's possible at all. The reason why I want to root it is because it's RAM capacity is very low, 1GB, and it can hardly run Android Os itself. In addition i want to look for some apps in order to make the device run more smoothly. I read this article ( howtodo rocks/how-to-root-gigaset-gs100/ ) and made me believe it not worth trying to root Gs100 because of the risk of failure (bricking), i don't care about a voided warranty, since it's an one-hundred-euro device. I want to ask for advice whether should I try to root it, or not. It would be helpful if someone has a personal experience. I will try to provide as much information as possible about my phone's current state.
Gigaset gs100 specifications - devicespecifications com/en/model/22b44be8
Android security patch level - October 5, 2018
Baseband version - MOLY.LR12A.R2.MP.V52.11
Build number - GS100_HW1.0_11132018_V14
Thank you in advance!
P.S.: Sorry, i can't post external links yet, since i am new member

Since there's little to no threads/posts that's specific to your devices model, you will then have to look at the fact that your device has a Mediatek MT6739 Chipset.
With limited threads for the MT6739 device, your next best option is to search for the MT67xx.
Keep in mind that the MT67xx means that it's for all Mediatek devices that begins with MT67.
Here's a small list of threads that should help give you a good start on your journey to root/development that just may also work for your specific device.
Be sure to ask for some support and guidance within one of them for clarity just to be on the safe side.

A quick FYI... Your device is a 64-bit as well. This does matter too.
Good Luck!

Any instructions available?
A bit more information is needed in order to assist you. What Make of Tablet ? What Model ? What Android version ? Also I would suggest that you create an account on XDA in order to fully utilize the site. XDA has much to offer in terms of Knowledge, Guides, and Resources. One of the greatest resources being it's members.
Hi all!
I'm new here, so please instruct me if I'm doing anything wrong.
I have a Coolpad Y82-820. It's a Chinese phone, I think.
I'm in the process of getting it rooted. ---- Was rooted before, but an update on their side (to CoolUI V24. [phone model#]. 160407) removed the root and now makes it a bit difficult to root at the moment, though I'm sure it will be done eventually.
Once rooted, I don't really mind waiting, I would like to put a Custom Rom on this phone, but not sure what options are available. I see posts about the Coolpad Note/Dazen/Shine/Rogues etc. Though nothing about this one, though spec wise it's not too far off from the others.
I'd be grateful if anyone could help with confirmations, information, on how to select a correct custom rom for this device and the steps to do. Also if there's any info on how to root this current version, even better.
Thanks!

Hello,
Can you please tell us the firmware version of your device?
Also, this forum is for newbies finding their way around XDA Developers, it isn't for requesting ROMs.

Hello,
Try posting your query here Android Q&A Forum with all relevant details, the experts there maybe able to assist you.

I got this free tablet along with a course of Spanish.
It's a 9" android device. According the documentation that came with it, it has an Alwinner A33 Quadcore, 512MB ram, 4GB storage & is operated with Android 4.4.
It has no brand, but it comes from a Belgian company named GP-electronic.
As soon as I got it, I started installing my most favourite apps & one of those (my mobile banking app) gave me this warning I never had before:
Code:
Rooted Device Detected. We advice you to use a non-rooted device.
And now I wanted to know how I can unroot it & reclaim it for my own, because I notice some other things have been modified / disabled by the supplier....
How do I gather the necessary info, where to look & stuff like that is something new for me.
Cheers

Hello,
I'm new in this forum.I want some help from developers. I'm using Xiaomi Redmi 5(rosy) which has Snapdragan 450 chipset. It comes with Android version 7.1.2 (Nougat). I want to upgrade to Android 8(Oreo) so I downloaded an Unofficial Build of Lineage OS 15.1 for my device. But after flashing I found camera,fingerprint sensor and all other sensors are not working . After booting it shows "A vendor image mismatch has been detected. Typically this means your vendor image is out of date. " . I don't know why it's showing this message.
I want to fix those bugs.How can I do that ?
Please help me.
Thanks in advance.
Sorry for my bad English

I don't have this device but, the following area of the forum is specific to your device.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-5
With that guidance...
Purely as a personal opinion, I would really doubt that someone would be able to support a development that they didn't develop on top of your having an Unofficial release of the LineageOS 15.1 (rosy) when there's nothing on the forum regarding this release. Also, i had tried to perform a quick search to locate this using a few methods and was unable to locate anything to even refer you to.
I'm not stating that "Nobody" will help you out but, as a developer myself, I just feel that you would have a hard time to obtain assistance.
This is why I can only refer you to the link above that's specific to your device.
I wish you the best of luck!

I just bought a Motorola Moto E22 and want to install a custom ROM to get rid of google stuff.
It seems Lineage does not support this phone yet, but I found this LineageOS22 guide which I have no idea it is reliable or if it has anything to do with the official Lineage project.
Any clarification or suggestions for alternative privacy respecting ROMs that work on Moto E22 would be much appreciated.
First of all, don't do these before completing 1 year of buying. You will lose warranty for unlocking bootloader.
Second thing is, if any official rom is not supported, you can definitely use unofficial version from xda. Developers try their best to fix issues with unofficial roms. If you don’t know if it’s reliable or not, read the comments to learn about bugs, issues and positive sides.
Don't be afraid of trying roms built for your model. Because by chance if you don’t find the rom good, you can revert back to stock rom using rescue & smart assistant tool (official software from lenovo/moto)
And before getting started, take note of your model number. Also you have to install device info hw app & click on system there. There you have to find what is your device called in developments. The name will be written beside "device" title (not sure). For example, my moto e5 is called nora in development.
N.B. Dont use any unofficial rom from outside of xda!

Thanks for the quick response.
Privacy is a greater concern than warranty, so much so that I would have got the PinePhone if I could, but the best I can do is try to mitigate the damage made by stock android spyware and Motorola bloatware.
I'm more than willing to test unofficial roms, the problem is that there doesn't seem to be any available for my model here on xda, not even an official thread yet.
The LineageOS20 for Moto E22 link I found does seems a bit suspicious as there is nothing about it here on the forum.
