Hello, I am looking for direction on how to approach this. I have a ASUS Zenpad Z10 (ZT500KL - Verizon) that I want to update to a newer version of android. Since the manufacturer no longer sends out updates to the tablet the only option I am left with is to root the tablet. However I am not sure hot to go about rooting and flashing an android device. Any tips or guides on the process (any specific to this model would be best) would be greatly appreciated. If there's a simple tool that flashes my device for me that would be great but I understand I would probably need to root the tablet first. I've never rooted any android device and It's difficult to find consistent guides online on the process. From what i was told Verizon locks the bootloaders of all their devices meaning root and flashing custom roms is impossible. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Hi
I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy S through Optus here in Australia. Like many others, the phone is running frustratingly slow. After reading many articles on this, I have decided to root the phone, then run the one click lag fix. Rooting will also allow me to use Titanium Backup which I am keen to do.
I am very new to all this phone stuff and so far, every rooting method I have tried has failed to work (2 methods involving downloading an update.zip, one automatic method through a PC). I think this may be because my Australian phone is slightly different to the galaxy's that the root guides were created for.
My phone specs are:
Build number: Froyo.DTJP5
Baseband version: I9000DTJP3
Firmware version: 2.2
I'd greatly appreciate anyone who can point me in the right direction for applying root to this phone. Or if anyone thinks there is a better option for speeding the phone up, please let me know.
you can either apply a one click lag fix (available in the market) or follow this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=728754
Hi guys, I have been given an Android Device which I had never heard of, 7" ePad Android 4.0 All Winner A13 Tablet 4GB 512MB'. My friend wants me to root the system for him. However as I am relatively inexperienced, although I have rooted my G Tablet successfully numerous times, I am not sure how to go about rooting an unknown device. Any help is welcome.
ROM Verification
How can I check if I have the latest ROM H640_77v01.01b06
Hi all,
I've just got given a Chinese Hisense phone. I'd like to root the phone and install a custom ROM. Problem is, I can't find too much info on this device. On the package, it shows as a "Hisense F25M".
Navigating through the device, it shows as Model Number HLTE100M.
Hopefully someone on here can direct me to the right rooting and ROM instructions.
Many thanks,
Arj
That phone is for a Chinese market, there are couple of variations with the same name and different specs (mainly RAM). To my knowledge, there are no English custom roms available.
For root, you can try the generic root tools like Kingroot.
OK, I have root'd / custom ROM'd every Android phone I have owned (about 5 now).
After reading a bit, I ordered the Exynos version for the S10E and this was delivered:
SM-G970F/DS
Baseband version: G970FXXU3ASIE
Build Number: PPR1.180610.011.G970FXXU3ASIG
From what I have read, Root, Magisk, TWRP & Custom ROMs should be possible, but I have not yet found a good walkthrough / instructions for achieving this for this S10e model. Who can point me in the right direction?
I have already tried this method for Root / Magisk....
https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html#samsung-system-as-root
However, it keeps stopping short of fulling Unlocking the Bootloader, which is quite early in the process.
What other options can be done to achieve getting a custom ROM on my device?
Thank You for any help you can provide with this goal!
I've rooted and used custom ROMs on past phones such as the Samsung Galaxy series but now I am the owner of a very niche phone in the form of the Doogee N20 and I was wondering how to go about rooting it successfully without the help of a large user-base that has already figured it all out beforehand?
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Afaik rooting methods are pretty universal. You need to patch a file called "boot.img" and flash it to your device with fastboot.
To patch it you need magisk canary. And to flash it you need fastboot and your phone's drivers.
Here is a video doing this on a OnePlus 8 :
You can try it yourself and see if it works. It seems you're not new to rooting, custom ROM install so you know the classic disclaimer "I'm not responsible for your phone, you did it, not me..."
Good luck.
(I personally didn't try this method since my phone is 5 year old and rooted from the beginning, but this new way of doing it is pretty convient)
