Hi everyone I just found out a way recently on how to unlock the bootloader without losing data and root Oppo A71 Cph1717 ,but just in case please i encourage you to backup your phone before doing this, i tested this with my own phone and it works so now lets start!!!
1) download and install latest python (ensure to tick the checkbox Add Python x.x to PATH) ------>https://www.python.org/downloads/
2) download and install preloader driver -----> https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9...dUE/view?resourcekey=0-TN-5Ipeegh7SowX4sduz_g
3) download the latest MTK-client zip --------> https://github.com/bkerler/mtkclient
4) unzip the mtk-client and open the CMD or Powersell inside the extracted MTK-client folder
5) enter the first command -----> python setup.py install ,and wait until the process is done
6) after the installation is done enter the second command ----> pip3 install -r requirements.txt ,wait until the process is done.
7) Now this is the part to where you are going to unlock the bootloader of your Oppo A71
8) enter command -----> python mtk da seccfg unlock it will wait for the phone to be connected
9) Now power off your phone, connect the small part of the usb cable in your phone, hold both up and down volume button and connect the another end of the usb cable to the computer and you will see the process starting after the process is done boot up your phone and the VIOLA!!! you have unlocked your bootloader without losing any data!!,when you see a warning ( your device has been unlocked and cannot be trusted , your device will boot in 5 seconds....) dont worry its very normal , Now lets hop in on how to root your oppo a71 .
Second Rooting your Oppo A71 CPH1717
1) download latest magisk apk and install it on your phone
2) download your stock rom in your PC -----> https://oppostockrom.com/oppo-a71-cph1717
3) and extract the stock rom in your pc
4) now go to developers option of your phone and enable usb debugging and select the type of connection and select MTP while connected in pc
5) copy the extracted boot.img in your internal storage
5) now open magisk app and select install (you can select Preserve AVB option if you want ) then select next and press the Select img and select the boot.img that you copied fron the PC and then press lets go option
6) wait until the patching is done
7) after the process is done, now copy the magisk_patched.img in the pc ( you can find it in your internals download folder)
8) now create a folder in your pc name it Root flash
9) move the magisk_patched.img in the folder that you created and rename it boot (no extension and other things )
10) copy the scatter file,preloader.bin from the extracted stock rom in to the folder that you created (root flash folder)
11) download sp flash tool ------>https://spflashtool.com/download/ ,and unzip it in your pc
12) open the sp flash folder and open flash tool.exe
13) now see scatter-loading file option and click choose go to the created folder( root flash folder) and select the scatter file
14) now untick the preloader but not the boot
15) click the download button , power off your phone ,connect the small part of the usb cable to your phone ,hold the up and down volume button then connect the another end of the usb to the Pc
16) wait until the flashing is done you will receive a green check in the screen ,disconnect your phone from the pc and turn your phone on and VIOLA!!!! your Oppo a71 CPH1717 is now rooted you can check the magisk app if its installed or install root checker
if i did something wrong pls feel free to tell me
PS: only follow this instruction that i created on how to unlock bootloader if your phone is Oppo A71 CPH1717 because if you follow another tutorial for unlocking the bootloader of this phone TRUST me it will going to be fu*ked up!!!!
BTW if you didn't enable the (Allow OEM unlock, but to be sure please enable it) option don't worry its ok trust me ,you can see it too in my screenshot.
you can refer to the screenshots below from my phone for the evidence , i hope this helps others.

as i can see in the video its legit he really unlocked,root and install twrp(which i have it too) in the oppo phone but the only thing thats difficult is he uses a test point and to do that you need to open the phone and some tools to do that which is hasle and hard while in my method i directly unlock it you can see in the vid he uses something to activate the test point but in my case i didnt, i just connect my phone and enter the commands and let the tool do the magic we both use the same tool but the only difference is he uses gui version and im using only command prompt version both version of tool is good but for me command prompt version is stable

thats kinda normal ,well yeah im facing the same problem right now but apparently there is no way we can remove that thing i searched every where but no luck but there is a method to remove that but the requirment that it needs doesnt met by our phone, this method needs Edxposed with we cant use because we need our phone to run in android 8/8.1 or higher i tried it with xposed framework but no luck i cant open the app because its not meant for the phone for now im thinking to to build a custom rom to fix this problem i dont know if this is possible but i found something in internet that got my attention im thinking to build (Resurrection remix 7 android 9) because it has a source code but it might take a while because im still studying it for now my twrp is on stanby for flashing and trying any rom that would fit for my phone

you can fix the unknown baseband easily using Zarchiver grant root access then go to ROOT/data/nvdata then delete all the files inside it then after reboot them check if it work because it works fine in me while in the case of the null imei you can only fix it using tools like SN writer or Modem meta

Hi!
I'm using Prestigio 5000 duo and this method does not seem to work for me. Mostly the script remains in the infinite loop, sometimes it said it completed however there was a mount - no permission error and no rotting was done.
I also tried MTK tools without any luck. Is there any other way?
My version is: PAP5000DUO.V20130419.V1.0.10
Please help! I'd like to create a backup (install CWM) and fix the jumping wifi mac address bug. (apply custom mac address). Rooting is needed.
Thanks!
It seems like I have JB 4.1.1. and this one works for 4.0 only. I'm looking at this solution ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2245259 ) but I haven't been brave enough to start it as I first tried to read back the recovery from the phone before flashing the new, it does not work (0% does not move). Also when I cat the proc/mtd file in abd shell it returns an empty list.

Now I was able to read back but cannot download the recovery: SP Flash Tool Error 8038. I have Prestigio PAP5000Duo.
I have MTK6577 scatter file (MT6577_Android_scatter_emmc.txt). Should I press upgrade instead of download? Will it work with only a single recovery file?
Thanks!
OK, I figured out it myself. The process did not work with the scatter file that was provided with the recovery image. Using MTKDroidTools it was two clicks to create one. (/prec/mtd was empty, that was a nogo).
Now it works. Unfortunately mac address changing does not work even with root. I get random every time. What a pity...

WELL WITHOUT WASTING MUCH OF THE TIME IN RAMBLING LET US SIMPLY START THE TUTORIAL:HOW TO ROOT CANVAS 2 RUNNING ON / WITH ICS......WHICH IS AS SIMPLE AS PLAYING SNAKE AND LADDER.

first of all enable USB DEBUGGING in your phone.
now connect your phone to your pc.
slide down the notification bar and select'touch for other options'.
now select MEDIA DEVICE option from that menu.
THEN DOWNLOAD bin4ry rooting tool from here..
extract it to any folder and open that folder.
now open runme.bat file from there.
it looks like a green coloured command prompt.
now just press 1 and hit enter.
then it will take about 1-2 mins as it is coping files to your phone.
(during this process your phone may reboot several times.)
THEN AFTER SOME TIME YOU WILL SEE THAT YOUR PHONES SCREEN HAS LIT UP.
IT WILL ASK YOU TO ENTER ENCRYPTION PASSWORD AND THEN FULL RESTORE YOUR PHONE.
IF YOU HAVEN'T SET UP ANY ENCRYPTION PASSWORD THEN JUST SELECT FULL RESTORE.
then after completing the process it will say press any key to continue.
now close this tool and switch on your phone.
you will find an app named superuser in your phone phone.
INSTALLING CLOCKWORK RECOVERY.
DOWNLOAD CLOCKWORK MOD RECOVERY FROM HERE.
put that downloaded recovery file (image) in the root of your sd card i.e. outside any folders otherwise mobile uncle tools won't detect it.

Emulator is a hardware or software used for duplication of behavior of main system to host system.
In short your pc is main system here and device is emulated system.
I think you should than turn on usb debugging and set device as media storage and try.
IF YOU ARE STILL UNABLE TO ROOT THEN TELL ME AND I HAVE ANOTHER METHOD FOR YOU.:beer: cheers.

I'm stuck at the point where I'm supposed to click the download option in the flash tool coz nothing is happening after that. A dialogue box pops up which reads "Not all images are correctly loaded which may cause boot up issue! Do you still want to go on downloading anyway?" And when I'm clicking on Yes, the download progress is remaining unmoved at 0%. plz help. Screenshot included.
EDIT : Looks like this method is for jellybean. I'm using stock ics.
I prefer you use binary4u method i think you are getting these error because when you were rooting a another device was connected or try to as admin

YOUR PROBLEM IS SIMPLY THIS THAT PRE- LOADER DRIVERS FOR YOUR PHONE ARE NOT PROPERLY INSTALLED IN YOUR PC. That's why sp flash tools is unable to connect to your phone and flash recovery.and so there is no progress.
TO INSTALL PROPER DRIVERS GO TO THIS THREAD.
Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2370906
And i know that the method i suggested is to root jellybean but it works fine on ics also ( but you cannot root jellybean via ics method)
**After installing proper drivers try again the above mentioned method and it should work.
And regarding that message... it will always come because all the images required to flash a new firmware are not properly loaded.
Ignore it because you are after all not flashing a whole new firmware but simply recovery in your phone.
Best if luck.

I have already been into that link since even I thought that I'm having driver issues but my device is included under adb in device manager and when I tried to update the drivers, it said that the best drivers are already installed.
I'm lost in a limbo, don't know what to do.

Ok My last suggestion.
Remove all the connected device(dongles, bluetooth device) from your comp except your mobile with Usb debugging on.
restart your comp.
now place it in C drive(just for caution) or if it was on C drive move it to another drive.
Now try to root if it doesn't root.
Try frameroot.

Another suggestion if the above method does not work.
Try with a different port or with different cable.

The userdata and cache are not important for unbrick your phone, the backup you give to me will help you, you must flash it with sp flash tool. But I think that you must try with mobile upgrade is the best way and there is an update to 4.2. Try with and without batery, with power+vol.

I have had the same error in all the Alcatel´s that I have. For that reason I think the only solution is the mobile upgrade, try by all the possible ways. Or with spflashtool only flash the cwm and install a backup.

Since you don't have twrp your best choice is step 1 of autoprime. Just follow the steps. Make sure you have the latest USB drivers for lg g3. Also you need to make sure your device is properly connected via adb. To do that you open a terminal inside the folder containing the files. To get adb correctly you hit shift and right click inside the folder the open terminal. Once terminal is open you start by connecting the device via adb. To check is connected your adb device id must show with the word device in front. If it shows unauthorized you need to allowed the connection on the phone. Once connected you need to push the files to the root of the sdcard
adb push "each file" /sdcard/
Then follow with the commands on step 1. Very important to rename twrp file to the name shown in the command.

THANK YOU I GOT IT but i have a quick question , i can now flash exposed on here ? and get roms that are bumped ?
You can flashes any rom bumped since this is bumped as well, if you run into a boot loop make sure to flash the corresponding modem either kk or lollipop. About xposed you can try but you better read the best way to install it because there are issues with lg cover app and the weather app.
i got it working, now im just trying to figure out why G3 tweakbox is not working with xposed
I actuality used the twrp app and it worked like a charm.

There are other threads that discuss this matter in detail. I personally don't use xpose until gets more friendly and stable with lollipop.

I've been using TWRP manager, since I'm avoiding xposed on 5.0.2 ( APM+ is the only xPosed module I really miss, anyway).
Sent from my LG-V410 using Tapatalk
Hi all,
I have a Wiko Rainbow Jam (which is provided with the stock rom "Wiko Rainbow Jam version 8", Android Lollipop 5.1 and the latest updates from Wiko), is about a week that I attempt to root my phone, but I am unable to do this operation, since I am totally unable to mount the /system as RW, and furthermore the bootloader is locked.
Firstly I found this method which consist to write/flash the TWRP custom recovery in place of the original one:
Root method 1
(sorry for the Google Translate link, but I cannot find the same how-to in English)
Which seems similar to this how-to
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63803008&postcount=5
But seems that these two methods will wipe/erase everything on my phone, and I would avoid this risk.
I also read that by flashing another custom recovery I will be unable to install updates from Wiko.
Then I tried this method using adb which is more simple:
https://f-droid.org/forums/topic/tutorial-how-to-root-an-android-device/
But when I launch the "adb root" command, all that I get is "adbd cannot run as root in production builds"; so I attempted various workarounds to "fix" adb, but all unsuccesfully.
I have to mention the fact that I have some skills in using Linux and the shell commands: maybe there would be a way to place the "su" binary on my Phone using Linux on my computer, by logging on the phone as root user, by acquiring the needed privileges?
Any help/suggestion/hints would be very appreciate! :good:
Kind regards.
I have a mtk6580 phone and also had the root issues, for a while I used kingroot, which rooted fine but I didnt trust it. Then I used supersume to get rid of kingroot which seemed to work but again, wasnt 100% it was all gone. Followed a similar guide to your first link which wasnt working. What worked for me was:
Download the twrp recovery .img file
rename it to recovery.img
open SPflash tools
add your own scatter file from your stock rom
deselect all the boxes except recovery
double click the recovery address box and find the renamed recovery.img
click download
plug your turned off phone in,
let it flash.
reboot into recovery
select reboot system
TWRP will tell you its not rooted and ask to install superSU
swipe for yes
reboot and you are rooted.
NO DATA LOSS
Thank you for this detailed how-to! However, for me, nor kingroot, kingoroot, framaroot and no other apk worked on my phone, so I will attempt to try your method, but first I have some questions:
1): On my phone, under SETTINGS > DEVELOPER OPTIONS, I can see the option “OEM unlocking”: I have to enable this option to permit the flashing of the TWRP img?
2): Is ok to download TWRP from here? dl.twrp.me/i9300/twrp-2.8.6.1-i9300.tar.html
3): "add your own scatter file from your stock rom":
where I can get/grab such file?
4): "TWRP will tell you its not rooted and ask to install superSU":
so TWRP is already provided with the SuperSU utility?
5): To be sure to avoid any risk, here I have a backup of my phone, which was done using "adb backup -apk -shared -all"; in case of emergency I will be able to restore my phone using this backup?
Many thanks for your attention! :good:

is called MT6580_Android_scatter.txt , can you take a look and tell me if is ok?
Many thanks!
1) cant hurt to turn it on, however the phone will be flashed whilst turned off so dont know if its needed, but Im sure I wouldve enabled it.
2) and 3) I dont know what your exact model number etc.. is for your phone, so the twrp you would have to find and check yourself, go here: http://www.needrom.com/category/others/u-v-w-x-y-z/brands-w/wiko/ and you can try to get a twrp from there, and definetely get a stock rom. Use the scatterfile from an 'SP TOOLS FLASHABLE STOCK/UPDATE ROM'
4) yes
5) I dont know, I dont use adb and wouldnt like to say its OK. You can use this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.h3r3t1c.onnandbup&hl=en which will make a TWRP or CWM backup of your entire phone which you can then flash in TWRP or CWM once they are flashed, or get all the data from the backup. I would advise to find this out before trying though, just in case. I personally didnt lose any data, flashed twrp in SPtools, took 5 seconds, rebooted, added SU, rebooted, took 2 minutes and everything was still there.

it has to be a scatter file from your exact model of phone, as everything has to match, partitions, nvram...etc... loads of things that can go wrong if the scatter is wrong

Ok: it was painless differently from what I thought: now, following your advice (I used the TWRP and the scatter file from the first link) my phone is nicely provided with the root access
EDIT: was necessary to activate the “OEM unlocking” option under SETTINGS > DEVELOPER OPTION, without this option activated, I was unable to flash the TWRP recovery img.
Many thanks!

Glad it worked lots of guides I saw also made it excessively complicated, this way took you what? 2 minutes? And am guessing all your data is safe and untouched.

Yeah, it took about 2 minutes, just the time to figure out that I needed the USB OTG cable with an usb mouse and to browse to the UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.76.zip file (as I said I used the TWRP posted in the first link, which doesn't work with the touch screen).
I want to say thank you again for your friendly assistance!
