I tried all what's in forum here
Modoco, HBOOT 1.01 and all what's avilable
But still not rooted
Any hints pelaaaaaaaaaaaaaaase
Sry you said step 2, which step 2?
Sent from my GT-I9100T using xda premium
OP: scratch step2. this might help. post here after following instructions:
copy update.zip from here to your sd
disconnect your phone from pc, reboot to recovery
on the red ! screen, press vol+ & power button simultaneously
apply update.zip from the blue menu
if a yellow/orange menu pops up, you're most likely rooted already. you can then install any rom of choice from there or restore a backup. HTH
You cannot root your device while using FroYo. I'm surprised that you did not read the requirements for rooting the device. You must downgrade the firmware to 1.31 from 2.1 before you can root.

I tried the fake recovery but also didn't work !!!!
I believe the fake recovery will not work in a phone with a factory rom, I think the phone has to be rooted in order to lunch the fake recovery
thanks for passing by

this step is the second and final step in applying the batched files
after downloading the root folder for legend which is "r4-legend-root"
first step is: connect the phone with USB in HBoot and apply "step1-windows.bat"
Second step: connect the phone with USB while in recovery mode and apply "step2-windows.bat"
I think at step two there is a problem!!!! as shown in the picture above
Which rooting guide??? Most have a step 2

Itried all what's in the forum, no thing works with me !!!!
could it be because of a driver problem or a damaged ADB tools!!!
Quick question were you in recovery for step 2?
Sent from my GT-I9100T using xda premium
From the screen capture. I suspect you do not have the driver installed correctly.
Edit: Ignore my comment above.
Since you have passed step 1, your driver works just find.
The next thing to look at is "You MUST have HTC Sync version 2.0.33 not a newer version for step2 to work".
Hi!
I used this tut:
http://theunlockr.com/2010/06/07/how-to-root-the-htc-legend/
I found the answer in the comments - but I can't find it no more. I had the same problems. then it worked.
Good luck!
Rooting issue @ batchfile #2
Hi guys
First of all.. I'm not sure if it's done to bump someone elses post like this. (if not: I'm sorry )
But I'm also stuck at step2 (after following this guide: wiki.rootzwiki.com/HTC_Legend)
this is what I get:
C:\r4-legend-root>step1-windows.bat
Legend Root Step 1
Erasing cache and rebooting in RUU mode...
erasing 'cache'... OKAY
... OKAY
About to start flash...
< waiting for device >
sending 'zip' (121756 KB)... OKAY

INFOchecking model ID...
INFOchecking custom ID...

INFOchecking custom ID...
FAILED (remote: 42 custom id check fail)
Rebooting to bootloader...
rebooting into bootloader... OKAY
Step 1 complete - now use the bootloader menu to enter recovery mode.
To do this, press the power button, wait a few seconds, then use the volume keys
and power button to select the RECOVERY option.
C:\r4-legend-root>step2-windows.bat
Legend Root Step 2
Pushing required files to device...
* daemon not running. starting it now on port 5037 *
* daemon started successfully *
error: device not found
error: device not found
Pushing update file to device sdcard - this may take a few minutes...
error: device not found
error: device not found
Now wipe and apply rootedupdate.zip from the recovery image menu.
error: device not found
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Then I found this post - which brought me to the update.zip work around.
Here I got the following error:
E:can't open /cache/recovery/command
Install from sdcard
finding update package
opening update package
verifying update package
e: failed to verify whole file signature
E: signature verification failed.
Installation aborted.
I've been struggling with this device for ages.
So any help would be very much appreciated!

ability to flash custom update.zip from internal SDCARD
faster .TAR backups
my additions

reboot into fastboot mode
some modification in "Partition SDCard" section:
put up a confirmation to warn the user that this option will wipe sdcard

fixed it by re rooting, maybe it didn't like that i did a factory reset between my rooting and attempt to flash recovery.
Working - Confirmed !
Flashed as instructed - worked 1st time.
Thanks !

I did a backup from recovery mode and chose to backup to the sd card. Where is the location of this backup? I think it may be /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup but I wanted to make sure. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

what would "factory reset" in the recovrey menu do to the device? will it void the root and recovery?
and what about hard-reset (buttons combo)?
i'm having crashes for a while and i'm considering theas steps, but i'm a bit scared of the consequences.
Thanks for the hard work on this one, will download and give it a go!

What is a CID?
CID lock (aka vendor lock): Carrier Id - put on your device by the manufacturer to prevent installation of a ROM not released by them. Commonly used in the form `CID-Unlocking`. If you purchase your phone (example) from 3Mobile (3Mobile is the ‘carrier’), your phone will only accept 3Mobile ROMs (the carrier’s ROMs). If you want to flash ROMs from other carrier, you’ll need to CID-unlock your phone, so that your phone will accept other ROMs. All bootloaders (apart from HardSPL and SSPL) will only allow a ROM with the correct CID to be flashed onto the device. A device which has been CID unlocked will have ‘SuperCID’ which allows ANY ROM to be loaded onto the device, SuperCID also unlocks the Ext_ROM and allows it to be mounted. Note: In general, the phrase ‘unlock your phone’ usually refers to SIM-unlock, not CID unlock.
What is Super CID?
SuperCID : by CID unlocking your device the value of the CID is changed to SuperCID . This allows the flashing of ANY ROM/RUU to the device regardless of the carrier and also unlocks the read/write capability of the Ext_ROM.
How to use the script?
Download the attached file
Extract the file
boot your phone into bootloader
Run the script and follow the on screen instructions
How do i get my phone into bootloader?

Do this only if you want to change the partition 19 cid. We do not know why HTC has a cid there and we do not know why getprop ro cid shows it.
Right now there is no reason for it.

I'm creating this thread as an alternative to *New Threads* that aim to resolve a question.

I have the xt1511 but it's GSM (I am using a sim card.) I rooted it not knowing a lot of things like nandroid backups existed and were a good idea.
There is a system ota update for it. After a lot of searching I found that I need the stock recovery for that upadte to work. I searched and found this,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-e-2015/orig-development/recovery-stock-recovery-5-0-2-t3123084
I assumed it would work because mine is GSM not CMDA. I renamed the stoc recovery image to stock.img because I want to use this,
http://www.xda-developers.com/simple-recovery-switcher/
I am following the root guide to use ADB to flash the recovery image and am getting an error.
"<bootloader> Image size exceeded partition limits
<bootloader> Preflash validation failed

Any idea as to how I can fix this. Here is a video showing exactly what I am doing. https://youtu.be/2BjRnLsddRU

@vivekanand149 Dude, why the heck are you trying to flash a Moto G 2nd gen ROM onto your phone?!
If you're using an XT1521 (the Indian 4G model), use this ROM: http://www.filefactory.com/file/1ve...XI22.50-53.1_cid7_subsidy-DEFAULT_CFC.xml.zip
Otherwise, find your model number here: http://www.filefactory.com/folder/752fdb49361c7f62/?sort=filename&order=ASC&show=100&page=1
You need to use the same ROM as your phone's model number!
Also when flashing you need to use MFASTBOOT NOT FASTBOOT.

I got two refurbished unlocked moto e 2015 lte phones. One worked well. The other has all the system apps crashing. I didn't discover this until after the return policy expired as I was away on holiday.
I've unlocked the bootloader and when I try to flash recovery through fastboot, I get the following failure:z

I am using the correct recovery. I have usb debugging on...bootloader is unlocked. Device id shows up in fastboot/adb.
Any ideas? What can I do? Re-format the recovery partition? What exact commands would I use?
Stuck...please help!!!! Thanks

Which rom version does Indian MotoE2 uses? How do I know that?
I'll download that bro.
mfastboot NOT fastboot.
Notice the 'm' in the command.
Motorola stock firmware files have multiple sparsechunk pieces (i.e. img.spareschunk.0,1,2,3), fastboot doesn't allow proper flashing of each of the pieces but Mfastboot does.
Google the command...easy to obtain.

The OTA update will only be a small update for example a bugfix etc. That's the reason why ur version isn't upgraded.

and I have to correct myself - there are 4 kinds of Status:

4. UNAVAILABLE
sth went wrong with the unlocking .. for now u have to get the BL status to 'unlocked' (I dont know how)
when this is done, the rooting procedure has to be redone and should work then.

Hi XDA...
Another note, remember to remove the 0x on the bootloader code when creating ulcode file, I proceeded with it in place and it gave me "Rooting Status: Unavailable"
It has been pointed out on this thread how to recover, but if someone runs into this problem: you have plug in the phone again in flash mode (vol down then plug in), click BLU, when relock wizard appears, go back to ulcode file and edit the 0x out, then relock, then unlock again (hope this helps someone new to xperia world like me )

1.
I unlocked the bootloader following the Russians tutorial at http://lenovo-forums.ru/topic/22665-lenovo-phab-2-pro-razblokirovka-bootloader-by-sevenmaxs/
YOU DO NOT NEED TO DISABLE SECURE BOOT, only do the step in that tutorial about how to unlock the bootloader.
Google translate does a good enough job with that page, ask here if stuck.
See post below for English translation on how to unlock the Bootloader.
2
After unlocking bootloader you can load TWRP without actually installing it with fastboot, see https://forum.fairphone.com/t/howto-use-twrp-without-flashing-it-e-g-for-backup/23747
Get TWRP https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B4WxcwjxK2VnZ0tWSl9wUTVoaTg
When you are in this temporary recovery you need to wipe data, this REMOVES ENCRYPTION! yay! :good:
(DO NOT REBOOT! Rebooting would just generate a new encryption key and you would have to repeat this step.)
Then in the same recovery you will be able to mount internal storage, put the SuperSU.zip file on your device and flash it in TWRP.
Congratulations, you are rooted!
3.
To install then TWRP permanently just usual fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
You are done! :highfive:
Get QPST Flash tool, install the Lenovo and Qualcomm USB drives that come with it aswell.
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B4WxcwjxK2VnM2pvRDk0VzZLVWs
Download the PB2-690M unlock attachmet from this post and unpack it to the root of your drive, aka directly in C:\PB2-690M unlock
Connect your phone by USB, make sure USB debugging is on and your pc is authorised.
Now run the QFIL tool from step 1, in the upper left corner select flat build
In the Select Programmer line, click on the Browse button and specify the path to the unpacked file \ PB2-690M_unlock_7M \ img \ prog_emmc_firehose_8976.mbn
Click on the Load XML button and select rawprogram0.xml first, and then patch0.xml
Run Reboot_QDLoader.bat .
In Windows device manager you should see a device "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008" under COM Ports if all is good.
In QFIL click "Download" to execute, should say Download Suceed, Finish Download if it all went well.
Now disconnect the USB cable, power on the device (might have to hold power for a bit) and re enable USB debugging and allow OEM Unlock if needed.
Connect cable again, allow your PC for USB debugging on the device, and run Unlock_Bootloader.bat
The device should reboot to bootloader, and then reboot again to a screen with the Android robot, THIS WIPES YOUR DATA!
That's it, you have unlocked your bootloader! Congratulations!
Yes. Good job.
Mhhh... If something goes wrong, how can we restore the stock firmware? I can't found the last version.
Lenovo often disable the server of ota (i saw that on lenovo's forum).
Maybe a guide for restore can be useful too.
Anyway thank you very much.

edit:
after reviewing all steps i've found the solution for my QFIL error.
In the russian thread is an older version linked:
QPST_&_Drivers.7z
contains QFIL 2.0.0.4 not 2.0.0.5 like on the provided screenshots.
Now i'm stuck at the same step like "pancx 0" from post #6 in the russian thread. :/
i finally got my bootloader unlocked and magisk installed after hours of studying lenovo-forums.ru
this is what i did:
switch from a Windows 2016 Server Workstation to a fresh installed Win 7 x64 on another PC
driver install order:
- phone factory reset
- enable usb debugging
- LenovoUsbDriver_autorun_1.1.33_user.exe from the emulated CD-Drive of the Phab2Pro
- installed newest QPST.2.7.460.zip
EFS Backup described here:

this seems to fix my error "System cannot find the file specified"
with patched boot partition works the command "fastboot oem device-info" (works now even on my other workstation without changing anything)

after that it is possible to boot TWRP Recovery img without flashing it "fastboot boot twrp-lenovo-tango.img" like described in your link - no problems.
and so on ...

this seems to fix my error "System cannot find the file specified"
with patched boot partition works the command "fastboot oem device-info" (works now even on my other workstation without changing anything)
after that it is possible to boot TWRP Recovery img without flashing it "fastboot boot twrp-lenovo-tango.img" like described in your link - no problems.
and so on ...
sorry it's late again.

I have one on the way and hopefully what you posted will help me get it rooted.

You who? I have the 690m

Get QPST Flash tool, install the Lenovo and Qualcomm USB drives that come with it aswell.

Download the PB2-690M unlock attachmet from this post and unpack it to the root of your drive, aka directly in C:\PB2-690M unlock
Connect your phone by USB, make sure USB debugging is on and your pc is authorised.
Now run the QFIL tool from step 1, in the upper left corner select flat build
In the Select Programmer line, click on the Browse button and specify the path to the unpacked file \ PB2-690M_unlock_7M \ img \ prog_emmc_firehose_8976.mbn
Click on the Load XML button and select rawprogram0.xml first, and then patch0.xml
Run Reboot_QDLoader.bat .
In Windows device manager you should see a device "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008" under COM Ports if all is good.
In QFIL click "Download" to execute, should say Download Suceed, Finish Download if it all went well.
Now disconnect the USB cable, power on the device (might have to hold power for a bit) and re enable USB debugging and allow OEM Unlock if needed.
Connect cable again, allow your PC for USB debugging on the device, and run Unlock_Bootloader.bat
The device should reboot to bootloader, and then reboot again to a screen with the Android robot, THIS WIPES YOUR DATA!
That's it, you have unlocked your bootloader! Congratulations!

I think I am getting lost somewhere during line 10. My phone reboots and (I assume is in it's fastboot mode) I can do fastboot commands at the screen, it DOES NOT make it to the android robot screen. I let it set for a few minutes and nothing happens. It just stays on the Lenovo boot screen.
I did manage to do this and get it to say OK instead of FAILED. I did fastboot flash recovery instead of fastboot boot.
Thank you for your time.
Is support for exfat file system in this twrp?
I tried to backup to my exfat flash drive, but flash drive is unvisible.
Is support for exfat file system in this twrp?
finally! after 3 years with Galaxy Note 3,i got phab 2 pro and successfully rooted,i try to root it from yesterday..today i did it!
hello guys.
1. could someone create a new topic with clear steps and software needed for the bootloader unlock and root of our device?
2. are there any custom roms available for our device? audio lag in videos and some other staff are pretty annoying!!!
@Exelios: it would be much more user friendly if bootloader unlocking, rooting and installing twrp were in seperate topics so users with specific problems could find more direct help. just a suggestion
I finally got TWRP on the 690Y. After following the instructions in post #2, you'll need to do this. After doing the Windows-specific stuff, I rebooted back to Ubuntu, and installed the android-tools-adb and fastboot packages:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
(wait a few seconds)
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot flashing unlock
fastboot flashing unlock_critical
fastboot reboot
Note: the above commands might wipe your system and reboot again, in which case you have to go through the Lenovo setup, enable dev mode, enable USB debugging, etc all over again. I'm not sure that fastboot flashing unlock_critical is necessary.
After the reboot:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
(wait a few seconds)
fastboot flash recovery twrp-lenovo-tango.img
fastboot flash recovery twrp-lenovo-tango.img
(I don't know if doing it twice actually matters)
Hold down power until it turns off
Contrary to the above posts, the correct combo to get into TWRP is Volume Up-Power. Once the phone vibrates, you can let go of Power, but keep holding Volume Up until the TWRP screen appears. Also, the very first thing you should do is hit the Select Language button and choose English, otherwise you're going to have a bad time!
Well, I was not smart and didn't back up first, but I got lucky. Thought I'd bricked it, but the problem was SuperSU. I got the "latest" from the internet, but that one is old. You must use this one: UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.79.zip
