Particular Root Solution

Hi guys,
Is this root solution safe to use on my device?
http://www.androidauthority.com/galaxy-tab-7-0-plus-wifi-gt-p6210-root-63530/
Would it brick it and if so, would there be any way to restore the device?
Thanks

That is the method I used to root mine, there is a thread for it in the development section. This only roots the device and does not put a custom recovery in place, you have to use Gary's method for that. You will also need to install a copy of superuser once you do this and that is available in the market. The device can be restored using Odin which I have not had to use yet so not sure how it works but there is a thread for that in development too.

there is another root package that i create come with superuser and busybox so you dont have to download those manually...

What's the likely hood that it will brick my device?

Less than a fraction of a percent. All it does is put an su binary file into the system/bin folder.

Device now all rooted and working.
Is it me, or does a device run slower when rooted, I might just be making things up? lol

Its your imagination as all it does is give you administrative privleges and is not an app or program that uses resources.

How do I root my Asus zenfone 5?

I read somewhere that there is a routing tool for it , can anyone tell me where I can download it from? Or does anyone know if there is a one click method that will work for it ( I don't have a computer).
Someone please point me in the right direction. Thanks

Here are a couple of links to root guides:
Search on google for Asus Zenfone 5 Root (if you havent already)
Try: asuszenfoneblog. com link
Otherwise, keep on searching if it doesn't work, the instructions in the link are quite confusing but if read properly, will potentially root your device
Hopefully they'll work for you!
Enjoy @dboypipes

I found a 1 click method but when I used root checker it said I didn't have root m I tried it twice

Ok, some OneClick methods dont do what they say, but i recommend trying the one on the asuszenfoneblog .com website, its a bit complicated but its the best option in my opinion!
Message me on XDA if you need any more help, im finished for the night now (UK Time) so, if you need any help, it wont be until the morning @ryan012
Happy to help I hope we can find a rooting solution for this device!

So I tried that zenfone root APK. On that aeus blog but when I checked it with root checker it had no root acsess. The directions seemed simple enough I don't think I did anything wrong but who knows

I had tried "Kingroot" and "Framaroot" two days ago. Both of them don't work for F1.
Anyway，thanks for your sharing.:highfive:

There is no working root for Oppo F1 at the moment. Safe rooting methods are not available. The bootloader is locked and fastboot has been disabled.
I'd be very careful about trying to use one click app solutions for attempting to root the device, if you can get them to work. They are responsible for suspicious behavior, such as downloading stuff and installing their own root manager. Beware.

No hope
I tired everything, kingroot, Framaroot, oppo tool, Kingoroot no hope ?
Someone please find a way to root this phone

You still haven't figured out how to root this?

nice :good:
perhaps you can give us more clues :
1. does we need unlock bootloader / not ?
2. it need flashing from recovery (or even flash custom recovery) or only just an apk ?
this is interesting :highfive:

Has anyone tried TowelRoot?

Please help us root this device!
Thank you guys so much!

would using adb and remounting everything manually work? or downloading a firmware update and modding that

It will be much like my Find 7. Need to unlock bootloader to install TWRP recovery so you can flash SuperSU.
The trick is having an unlocked bootloader in the first place. The Find 7 wasn't a problem. Oppo didn't try to lock the user out.
I have an F1 here for my wife. Will root it once a developer has the exploits developed, tested and released to public. Just have to be patient and don't rush in doing risky experiments.
Try changing the launcher so it has a better UI for the daily stuff. ColorOS launcher is a PITA.

lol. uh no.
1: you can't remount system as /rw on a user build (only engineering/userdebug).
2: I think you mean a OTA update for system. Both the firmware and system are signed. You can't just do that.
You can use CVE-2015-1805. I got root via a kernel vuln, then exploited the bootloader to unlock it

If it's at all possible, could you (or anyone) please provide a very basic step by step/rough guide as to how you did this, for us newbies? So that I have some intructions to follow.
It would be appreciated sooo much...
Thank you for your help.

I ended up using KingRoot and then a workaround to get SuperSU instead. KingRoot did install some fishy apps. (one that had chinese letters), but after installing SuperSU I cant see them, so im gonna assume SuperSU uninstalled them. Nontheless, my device is rooted now.

Kingroot also sends a copy of your imei number to a ip address in China....
Good to see you got it sorted.

Rooting OPO without Wiping Data

Hi
I want to root my OnePlus One solely for the purpose of being able to install an app which requires my phone to be rooted. I have seen some old threads (both here and on OnePlus.net) on how to do this, but I'm not sure if the procedures still work for a phone running Cyanogen 13.1.
Can anyone point me to some instructions that do work for OPOs running CM13.1 that will allow me to root my phone without wiping any data
Many Thanks!
Reece

Well you only want root right?
You can simply do it without unlocking boot loader.
Just search for kingoroot or kingroot apk on google and use it making sure you've a good internet connection.It may need a few tries before rooting. But it will 100% work.

Not the best choice...You should install the system less supersu imo.

Doesn't matter,he wants the root only and he can achieve the supersu by a simple kinguser to supersu trick.
