So I got the first step, flashing TWRP. But, there's only a version of TWRP for the a10, would this work?
you don't really need twrp for root, just follow this guide

doesn't exist.
do you have dev options?

yes
send me a screen recording if you can, dev options should look like this
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

I have previously tried Kingo/King Root which worked on my KitKat Nabi tablet, I tried that on my a10e it failed. Root checker says there is no root for andr 11 on the a10e
whatever you do, do NOT use kingoroot, it basically installs a outdated version of SuperSU (which isn't liked by the community anymore because the original developer sold it to some random company) and bloats ur system up.
Yep, no OEM bootloader unlock option in dev settings
it may be possibly locked to your carrier. again, you can send me a screen recording or get an unlocked phone
My phone appears to be unlocked already, there is no sign of Verizon still being on here. I have since upgraded phones and the SIM card isn't in anymore.
Do I have to factory reset to fully get rid of the OEM?
i found this youtube video with some quick searching. it's in hindi but you can get the gist of it.
I most certainly dont have to disable automatic time right?
i don't know, after you get the option maybe you can set it back
i followed and nothing happened
did you reboot your phone after the fact?
yep, nothing works

Hmm so see tons off "unlock moto G" stuff but generally boot loader stuff requires the official MotoPho website. The problem I face and I'm assuming the rest of cricket users. I can get a temp-root but can't make it stay, nor can I use tools to unlock or flash a new recovery. Just would like to know what next I should do.
Android version 4.4.2
Can't get unlock code from MotoPho
Phone is from cricket (at&t company)
Temp root works for a bit.
Can I flash via a /dev/block?

How are you getting a temp root? I'm curious if Sunshine theroot ninja tool works if you already have temp root when you run it?
Getting temp root via towel pie root app, used a similar one for my nexus 7 but that stays, I have used a root checker and it says all good.

And SuperSu will even update or at least has but sometimes it fails, as well as I believe I've gotten root explorer to mount /system as r/w but as I try to replicate it atm its not tho SU pops up to ask for permission.
Twrp an cwm app both install the Recovery's but of course bootloaders locked so doesn't boot into it.
Edit: Sunshine says it will work so guess I'll try that next.
Hi,
I never saw this problem
My phone is unlocked (since a year more or less) and I can't install TWRP nor CWM. I tried many tutorials such as all the root methods listed on XDA for this smartphone.

There might be a problem with your drivers. You can try uninstalling and reinstalling them. Also, try using fastboot commands manually
Sent from my Mate
unlock again
Thank you. I'd like not to have to relock it as it's already done and rooted. Could you please tell me what drivers to install? I tested many of them (https://i.imgur.com/wBgsezr.png) but it seems I don't have the right ones then.
I'm using Win7 64bits.
Thanks again!
Use adbdriveinstaler and when it's install you can push recovery to add folder and try this command
cd C:/adb
Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Change name your twrp or cwm to recovery
Send frome globe
Okay. Here we go
ADB driver installed (https://i.imgur.com/PWrZoHH.png)
Went to flash and... still not allowed.
And in fastboot/rescue mode on my phone it's written PHONE Unlocked.
WTF
BTW, is there any other way to upgrade the phone? Cause every time I go to the software update in the menu i'm told it's up-to-date, but it's not... Android 4.4.2 & EMUI 3.0.
I read about a "local update" but can't find out how to update from the SDcard, I only have OTA.

What does that link do? Is it ransomware?

It's an expired link.
is it really locked and encrypted or just a lock screen that can be bypassed

I doubt it's encrypted; just a lock screen and I can't figure out how to bypass it.

can u get into download mode?
if so flash TWRP recovery then use inbuilt file manager to copy need files to sdcard then do a full wipe and install
Either do the post above or try using the online Android device manager or Samsung find my mobile and lock and unlock the device, that might do something, I'm not sure
Maybe a dumb question but what happens when you click the unlock button?
hey, i've been trying to root 920P (S6 Sprint) for whole week now, i've tried everything i found, tried to flash few versions of TWRP, failed at 99%, tried to root directly with CF-Auto root and it fails mid-flash, tried multiple versions of odin, still same results :|

it's really weird, I've succesfully flashed 920F (International) without any problem multiple times. I can flash stock rom so it's not hardware's fault. Am i missing some simple newbie step?
{FIXED}
i was missing newbie step like i suspected xDD i forgot to enable oem unlock
what is the solution ?
i have the same problem. what is the solution ?

my device is sm920A . it is at&t . i cannot find oem unlocker
Possible Solution to Odin "failed" messaged whilst flashing
Warm greetings to all.
I have previously encountered this problem before, ive tried clearing the cache and formatting with still no luck
Eventually I wanted to try something, I loaded my software I wanted to flash on a USB.
I then used an OTG adapter to connect the usb to my phone. I then booted into the recovery ( I have TWRP) and chose install from external storage. To my surprise it worked.
NOTE: I am not sure if this method will work on stock recoveries. Also if you have an external hard drive it works as well
Also note. My S6 is an international version i believe G925F
Wishing you all the best of luck if I was not able to help

did you enable developer settings?
Yes
Are we able to root and have magisk?
Definitely yes! Once you get familiar with the procedure, it's quite simple actually.
The hardest part is getting your device's bootloader unlocked.
Once you have the bootloader unlocked, follow instructions in this article.
Good luck and have fun!

Have you personally tested this?
Of course!
Though I don't flash the magisk patched boot image, I fastboot boot it, like described in step 3B in that article.
After rebooting, direct install magisk in the magisk manager, and reboot again, done, your device is officially rooted.

Maybe the problem is the minimal adb setup, try full version from google official site.
https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools
Or there is incompatible issue with you usb port or cable, try another one.
I really like this but can't use root

Hi! It was just the cable, instead of using the orignal cable I used another and everything worked!
