Hey everyone,
So this is pretty straight foreward, I'm attempting to root my Galaxy Core Prime (G360T, from T-Mobile in US) and I have had absolutely zero luck finding ANYTHING related that model number.
I've found plenty of stuff here, but it is all related to the G360H, G, and even the T1 (i think?) I've tried Kingo, Odin, and a few other things and I'm getting absolutely no where.
I'm wondering if anyone out here has had any luck with rooting this device in particular, or if maybe there is something I'm missing? I'm pretty new to the idea of rooting devices but I'm a proficient technically so I'm not exactly sure what is going on.
Is it T-Mobile software or something blocking the ability to root? I can't believe there is that much of a difference between my phone and say the G360H.
Thanks in advanced for the help, as I'm totally clueless at this point.

There are many of us using the MetroPCS version G360T1 that will gladly try any root method you get going. Feel free to contact directly if you need some testing help. While waiting for root, I tried Package Disabler Pro 3.7 that was released September 15. It works fine on the G360T1, although it says "Custom" under "Device status" in "About Device -> Status." Haven't gone to Download Mode to see if the triangle is set or not, but I'm guessing the flash counter has been tripped. I'm not worried about it too much, and it may have been tripped with some other attempt to root the device. Still, this app was just what I needed to disable all the junkware and still have a smooth working Lollipop 5.1.1 while waiting for the real goodies.

The thing is i got g3601 and its running kitkat and no update availble on it ??? so i am porting 5.1 for it.Recovery has been patched up and working kinda fine but need to fix alot of issues.normally i dont develop for mid range mobiles but my brother got one so that is why i started with this one.my first projects are z3 + and xperia lines.I will let you know when it is completed for testing.
Hmm, I thought this was for SM-G360T and the Samsung Galaxy Core Prime that is out for T-Mobile and running Lollipop 5.x. Is the G3601 a typo or different model? The MetroPCS G360T1 will work fine with the firmware and files from T-Mobile G360T because they are the same device and even same network provider. Anyway, it looks like someone was kind enough to modify the kernel source code the Samsung posted just a week or two ago. Here is the news, but be warned that it will trip the KNOX flag:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-core/development/kernel-root-root-sm-g360t1-5-1-1-t3203522
I put my G360T1 in download mode and it still says official and no warning triangle. I mentioned that it said custom in the About Phone page after doing other terminal entries and running Package Disabler Pro 3.7. Some may want to wait to root the device until there is a deodex'd rom out there to run xposed framework. I like the slimed down stock 5.1.1 and there are a bunch of garbage programs hogging the decent entry level device resources. More news to come...

My specs:
Model #: SM-360T
Android Version: 5.1.1
Baseband Version: G360TUVU1AOF9
I migrated from Nokia 521 - Windows 8.1 phone to this Android device because of the litany of apps I could use for productivity. I am highly disappointed that I am unable to revoke permissions of applications to resources I think they don't need. So, I basically use phone to make calls and text. If someone has successfully rooted THIS smartphone version, please advise. I'm a little technical, too.
Try this: https://autoroot.chainfire.eu. find your model and download the file you need, unzip it then put your phone in download mode and use odin 3.7 to send it to the phone. That outta be enough. I have not rooted this particular device in a while but I have rooted plenty of others using that method and it works like a charm every time. I just did a quick look up and your model is listed there. Give it a try and post your results.
Thank you so much, Geevil!!!
Appreciate your response.

Hello how would one root the sm-g360t and get custom recovery on it ?
Sent from my SM-G360T using Tapatalk
I have the sm g360t1, though no computer to connect the phone to. I see this phone listed in the cf-auto root repository linked above- not sure if that method needs a computer. King root may have worked, though the root gone by when using w0lfdroid's
Kingroot removal/supersu installer. It worked on orher phones.
King root is such spyware. I really want to try something else...

Yes King Root is bad. Pretty much like malware for your device. Don't use cf-auto-root either, as it's kind of a generic root and doesn't really function properly. I'm helping people constantly fix their devices after either tryung King or CF. Use Trapkernel to root the SM-G360T1 & SM-G360T. It's quick and easy and roots the device with no problems.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=62859013 Here is the recovery you should use too in case anyone's wondering. You flash it the same way as root.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=66266209
I recommend using version 3.0.1-0 though, as version 3.0.2-0 has had problem flashing certain roms for some reason.
Thanks bogarty, I was able to root and flash custom recovery on my phone with both links you provided here.. I have the T-Mobile version (SM-G360T) but everything went well
Dont know if ppl still trying to root this device but I just found out that you can download the rooting file trough chainfire for this model. Here´s the link: https://download.chainfire.eu/767/C...to-Root-cprimeltetmo-cprimeltetmo-smg360t.zip
Why do that when there is a root method for this device.
Follow this thread here for all your root needs for this device

Someone help us please. This device it's great for the price. It has many users. Devs needed bad! I
It's a kick a$$ little phone. It has and the biggest bang for the buck all day long: It has a 720 X 1080 HD5.5" screen, 2GB of RAM, 3000 mah "removable" battery, SD 410 (as opposed 200, 210 or 400 in that price range) and expandable micro SD for $79? Works as good on T-Mobile if you unlock it as any other T-Mobile phone would, and with LTE band 12. And the unlock is free too, just cant beat it.
Aside from not having a Super AMOLED quad HD screen and the camera not being the highest quality, it's as good as my Note 4 (for my usage). I would think there'd be tons of these floating around for some dev's to try and get root, but maybe it's just that tough a nut to crack...
Price is perfect to test now!

There is a root method for LG devices that involves getting the phone into download mode and then using a script to root it from there. Based on my admittedly limited experience with this phone, I think a similar approach should work.
That process is detailed on this thread, and I was able to duplicate it on my ZMax 2 almost all the way.
Step one involved pushing some files via ADB - Check!
Step two was to get into download mode. - Check! (vol + & vol - and then insert USB cable)
Step three was to figure out the port being used. Mine was COM 3 - Check!
Step four was to use the "Send_Command.exe" file to initiate the process. Check!
I got as far as getting the "#" prompt but then... Well, the script is written for LG devices with their specific partitions and directory structures. My guess/hope is that modifying this process slightly by changing the *.sh file would be enough, but I'll leave that to greater minds than mine.
Ok..for the record..an older version of kingo root DOES successfully give you root...the problem is having root does NOT give you write access to /system. The emmc is still write protected. The method used to unlock many other ZTE models ( http://androidforums.com/threads/zte-write-protection-for-zmax-and-other-zte-phones.1040331/ ) does NOT work on the Z958 which is the "Zmax2" for AT&T (LOL) <-- I'm not laughing..that's the model. The z955a which is the "Zmax2 unlocked version" DOES work with the method found. Lucky us I guess..then again you can't get the unlocked zmax2 for $60 at bestbuy which seems to happen fairly regularly for the z958. It's also currently fairly easy to get the z958 unlocked.
ZTE's response when contacted regarding the locked bootloader is:
Dear Valued ZTE Customer
Thanks for contacting ZTE.
We are sorry to inform you that we do not support unlocking the bootloader and rooting the device.
We apologize for the inconvenience
Should there be further assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Best Regards!
-----
Yeah thanks bunches ZTE. That email convinced me not to look at the Pro or the Axon 7 until they HAVE a working root/twrp. The reason I want the bootloader unlocked is I want to be able to install twrp and backup my phone to prevent bricking issues.
We really need a zmax2 forum so this information can be shared better.
Once you have it rooted with kingo root it will stay rooted till you reboot...take the opportunity to give yourself a semi permanent adb root shell [ http://androidforums.com/threads/semi-permanant-root-shell.1039076/ ] (not the same as gaining root but will allow you to do things like "wm density #" to see what the current dpi density is (both real dpi and "override" dpi)....I've found "wm density 260" works quite well. The default is 320.
I've also fought with ZTE on phone and through I'm session and they kept telling me same thing they do not assist in unlocking bootloader or root because it voids warranty once they told me that and the axon 7 was said to have unlockable bootloader I took the chance to use that as my advantage on the warranty issue and told me that it would not be bout warranty void anymore and they kept trying to beat round the bush and just kept saying we can not assist you on unlocking bootloader or gaining root do to warranty void
ive temp rooted with kingo pc and gained semi permanent adb root shell but still no full root but my question is has anyone experienced KINGroot causing a block on boot with triangle and ! symbol in the triangle to go to a black screen with led ring blinking white and having to factory reset the whole phone
One of the problems is that there are 2 zte zmax 2 variants
Z955a root
Didn't find anythong for the ATT Z958 variant tho

Zmax 2 unlocked rooting questions
Hello everybody, I have the unlocked variant of the zmax 2 , how easy is it to root this phone, is it possible? I only need temporary root anyway for a one time use, if full root is possible then touché, and also do I need a computer to do this, mines in need of a new SSD to run the OS so until I get that I have no computer access
Not sure where to put this
So, let me say that I have fully rooted the phone. I was able to figure out the partitions to the phone and extract all of them, including the boot.img and recovery.img. The bootloader is still locked as far as I know. Even though ZTE won't release the unlock code for the phone, is it possible to unlock it anyways? If so, then how. I really would like to participate in this endeavor for the community. Any feedback or help would be appreciated. I have spent almost two weeks on this phone, not bad for the money, but would love to design a custom rom for it. Thanks.
Enable USB debugging
Get adb (most know how)
Type in this command through adb:
adb reboot disemmcwp
Now use the PC version of Kingo Root
After that there are methods out there for replacing kinguser with supersu (if you choose to do this be careful it may brick your phone) otherwise keep kinguser.
Here is the current update: Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow
Why not use the official released today. Won t let me post the link but it is on ATT today.
I have bought the AT&T version and unlocked it now and using with a different sim, could anyone let me know how to get the Marshmallow update.
I used Debloater to remove the bloatware.
I also have the z958 (ATT Go Phone ZMax 2) that I've unlocked and using with T-Mobile.
While Root and customer ROM are unlikely, I hope we can update to recently released Marshmallow update from ATT.
From what I gathered, you can only update to Marshmallow with active ATT service through phone.
Is it possible for someone to extract the update and upload it so others can update it via SD card or something?
Hopefully phone would remain unlocked.
It should be possible. I did this for an update to the original Zmax on T Mobile.
Hey I'm new to the world of rooting. Wanna do it to get past the network tethering thing. I pay for hotspot. But even planet didn't stop my 8gigs from being used up. So I've started searching for how to keep going with my hotspot.
I have no idea how to do anything past basics. So the more detailed and lamen the answers the easier.
I guess to root the Samsung j3 with nougat on it is first get past unlocking it.
Any helpful tip to get the unlock code for free?
Next is rooting it. A lot of techno babble baffled me all night long. So yeah that's what I'm trying to get help with.
Thanks for the time you guys may spend

I also have a Samsung J3 running Nougat that I would like to root. Mine is a Samsung J3 Unlocked (SM-327U) running Android 7.0 with May 1, 2017 patches. I've enabled the "OEM unlock" under Developer Options but I can't find a tutorial or TWRP image that supports this version. I want to install SuperSU but I'm stuck without TWRP support. I've already tried both OneClickRoot and Kingo, both of which state that the device is unsupported. I'm assuming that under the hood they are just scripting out the process but still using the same Odin/TWRP/etc process.
Any ideas? Is there a way to translate the changes necessary from another version of the J3 (e.g. SM-327YZ) to this firmware or are we stuck waiting for supported to be added to these (awesome) tools?
Thank you!
After unlock
After the phone is unlocked it should be easier to root it. I have a few more days in my service cycle till I reach the phone active 90 days to get the free unlock. After that I'll start trying to figure out how to flash it again
Hello,
like you'll see I'm new here. My problem is, that i can't root my european Galaxy J3 (2017).
Model-No is SM-J330F/DS.
Is it just me or is every single root-method actually a fake for this device?

My J727T is carrier unlocked because i bought it outright at full retail. I dont know how an carrier unlocked device would change anything. Our bootloader is locked which has nothing to do with being carrier unlocked...
Sorry for Hijacking Thread...
Maybe I will buy SM-J330F in Germany as it is cheap... 200 Euro...
and seems no Fingerprint Sensor. :good:
For Germany DBT I found latest Firmware:
Code:
J330FXXU1[B]AQH2[/B]
Please.
Can I root SM-J330F
If yes, how?
Maybe somebody can please give Link to Instruction...
Thanx in advance.
Best Regards
if you want to bypass the 8gb hotspot limit you have to use foxfi and enable proxy in the app. if you set it correctly on your pc or gaming console it will not use data. no root is required anymore. i downloaded a full game on my ps4 using my hotspot and it hasn't used any data except my normal data and that doesn't matter since i have unlimited lte data.

I also have a Samsung J3 running Nougat that I would like to root. Mine is a Samsung J3 Unlocked (SM-327U) running Android 7.0 with May 1, 2017 patches. I've enabled the "OEM unlock" under Developer Options but I can't find a tutorial or TWRP image that supports this version. I want to install SuperSU but I'm stuck without TWRP support. I've already tried both OneClickRoot and Kingo, both of which state that the device is unsupported. I'm assuming that under the hood they are just scripting out the process but still using the same Odin/TWRP/etc process.
Any ideas? Is there a way to translate the changes necessary from another version of the J3 (e.g. SM-327YZ) to this firmware or are we stuck waiting for supported to be added to these (awesome) tools?
Thank you!

I successfully rooted my J327U witb Chainfire's CF Autoroot (the T-Mobile variant J327T) via Odin.
After Root I installed Flashfire ( also by xda-developer Chainfire). I'm still playing with the app's various features but so far it is pretty awesome definitely an app I'll be making a donation to this next paycheck) you'll be able to make a backup of your device with it. Hope this helps.

It wont work. The tmobile variant and even the metropcs variant is bootloader locked therefore you cannot flash anything. I have a metropcs variant and everyone else in another thread has also. Me and a few others have tried for months to get root and it failed miserably. I suggest buying the sm-j327u. You can get it on samsung.com
Hello guys!
I've spent my day trying to root my J330FN without any succes.. I've found an option in developer menu to allow OEM to be unlocked.
I only need root, not custom recovery...
Please do you have a suggestion?
Thanks

Rooting shouldn't be a problem for this device
Post some specifics on what you have tried and the reason for failure.
I should be able to get something up if you post the details above and your firmware details.

https://desktop.firmware.mobi/ this should help. the firmware for the device is here: https://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/SM-J330FN/ make sure to choose your carrier along with the correct country. the cf autoroot for the j330f is on the firmware.mobi site it should work if you use odin. if it fails to flash or something goes wrong you should have your stock firmware.

Sorry it's taken so long to reply back to you, I live right in the middle of the northbay California winecountry wildfires that devistated Santa Rosa, CA. so it's been somewhat crazy here.
The CF Autoroot that I used on my J327U is for the T-Mobile (J327T). I'm not sure if they started locking down their bootloaders, so you'll have to perform due dilligence on that end. If you do decide to give it a go, make sure you enable USB debugging and OEM unlock under developer options.

Hello,
like you'll see I'm new here. My problem is, that i can't root my european Galaxy J3 (2017).
Model-No is SM-J330F/DS.
Is it just me or is every single root-method actually a fake for this device?

if you want to bypass the 8gb hotspot limit you have to use foxfi and enable proxy in the app. if you set it correctly on your pc or gaming console it will not use data. no root is required anymore. i downloaded a full game on my ps4 using my hotspot and it hasn't used any data except my normal data and that doesn't matter since i have unlimited lte data.

Or pda app thing thing...thats what i use when people ask for unrestricted hotspot, it also uses bluetooth as tether that does not use any of your 8 GB

I used the same app and used proxy but just saying if you use your ps4 (setup for the proxy on pdanet or foxfi) it will only work for soo long because depending on what your doing on the internet with your ps4 it may or may not count data. I have past 8gb on my hotspot and i mostly just updated games and my ps4 system software and watched videos on youtube.
J330FN (dont know if its DS variant)
I have tried the CF-AUTOROOT website and can't for the life of me, to get it to work.
I dont want to double post, so here is my reply in the firmware.mobi thread: ==>Click here <==
If i figure it out, or someone has succesfully helped me in rooting this monster of a phone, i will post back to help others.

Just FYI, your bootloader is not unlocked. The only way to unlock the bootloader is loading into fastboot and issuing the "oem unlock" command. But you have to hit the volume up button to confirm and complete the unlock, and the volume buttons are disabled in fastboot on this device(like most other RCA tablets), therefore we can not unlock. There was a tool to modify bootloader to bypass the confirmation, but it was for another RCA tablet and it didn't work on the lk.bin file I have for this device. Also, as of yet, I can't get spft to read or write anything to this tablet, so even if I could figure out how to edit the file, I have no way to write it to the device. The saddest part is, this tablet isn't exactly fort knox. Someone with actual know-how/dev experience could have this thing unlocked and rooted in like 5 minutes.
So I've tried pretty much everything I've found at this point and none has succeeded. I have a Samsung Galaxy S6 SM920V (G920VVRS4DQD1).
Odin just liked to tell me "Security check failed : Recovery"
King Root and Kingo Root (PC and APK) both failed
And the few other ways I've tried failed at various parts of the rooting process, I'm honestly just not sure my phone is even rootable at all anymore.
But if you even think you have a way I might be able to root my phone, any help would be much appreciated.
If you need any extra info about my phone just ask and I'll do my best to tell you whatever you need.
