Anyone can help will be very much appreciated.
It is this model = http://www.lelong.com.my/zte-v793-a...alcatel-hidamari-129512382-2014-05-Sale-P.htm
I also have this phone and still looking for a working method to root it. Please share the info if you know. Thank you.
ZTE V793 rooted
rooted my zte v793 successfully
i used the SP Flash tool to obtain scatter file and use that file to modify CWM from zte blade using MTK Droid tools. Then i flash the recovery image to the phone using SPF tool.
then using CWM, i flashed Root_Superuser_3.1.3_Busybox_1.20.2-Update1-signed.zip to the phone.
Then i use Link2SD and partitioned my sdcard to offload files from the meagre 100MB limitation
i will put the detailed procedure and the customised CWM for v793 if that's needed so you don't have to mess around with those files.
thanks

edit: I also in need of usb driver for this phone because whenever I switch off phone for Flash tool, my XP laptop always ask for drivers of which I don't have.
Thank you in advance. I'll wait for your files and guidance to do it. :good:
Dear all,
my method ultimately becomes obselete now. to root, you can just use one of these 2 methods:
1. Ishuaji
2. e-root
the supersu included is in chinese, so you might need to flash CWM to change to english supersu.
as for flashing CWM, you can find tutorials using Mobileuncle.
thanks!

All the files needed are in this google drive folder:
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0BzFjevWXftUyY3RQUlZjZ2s1QjA
Detail of files:
1. zte_mtk6573_drivers_cdc+vcom+adb_v1.1136.0.zip
USB VCOM driver. needed when you want to flash the phone (This is when you strip the battery off the phone and connect it to USB). this driver is unsigned, so for win8 users, pls google how to install unsigned drivers.
2. SP Flash Tool v3.1216.05.7z
Flashing tool. you need this to flash the custom CWM attached.
3. MT6575_Android_scatter.txt
Device-specific memory map. we need this to tell SP flash tool where to put the custom CWM when flashing.
4. ZTE-V793_130615__recovery_130802-123951.img
Custom CWM generated from my phone (ZTE V793) bought from Happy Mobile (DiGi) under SKMM package.
DISCLAIMER: this is generated from my phone's settings and intended only for my phone's usage. I will not be responsible for any damage caused by your act of flashing this file onto your phone.
I successfully generated the file using the tutorial from a russian site
http://forum.china-iphone.ru/viewtopic.php?p=496116#p496116
also an xda tutorial here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38337401&postcount=5
You can generate your own CWM using tutorials above, but if you agree with the disclaimer, you can use the custom recovery attached. With no warranties, of course.
5. Root_Superuser_3.1.3_Busybox_1.20.2-Update1-signed.zip
The rooting tool to be installed by our custom CWM to the phone to obtain root
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Method:
This can be divided into several process:
1. Download all related files
2. Install Driver
3. Flash custom CWM
4. Install Root & Busybox zip file using CWM
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
1. Download all related files
Pretty self explanatory. Download and extract all files.
First, download and install USB Driver:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/f7h1f7i7skggmtg/ZTE+Driver.rar
2. Install Driver
We need 2 drivers to be installed:
- ZTE_Handset_USB_Driver.exe
- JoinMe_for_Android.exe
the Joinme driver is needed when flashing custom CWM. However, it didn't work for me. so I installed zte_mtk6573_drivers_cdc+vcom+adb_v1.1136.0.zip manually. To install it, remove battery from phone, connect to usb. Wait for computer to start searching for drivers, select Browse for drivers and select the vcom drivers downloaded.
3. Flash custom CWM
1. Open Flash_tool.exe from SP Flash Tool v3.1216.05 folder extracted earlier.
2. Click "Scatter-loading". Select "MT6575_Android_scatter.txt" that you downloaded earlier.
View attachment 2159248
3. Click to deselect ALL checkboxes in the list. ONLY TICK RECOVERY.
View attachment 2159266
4. Double click on the word RECOVERY and select "ZTE-V793_130615__recovery_130802-123951.img" downloaded earlier
View attachment 2159267
5. Click Download. A warning will pop up "Not ALL images are correctly loaded blah blah blah". just click Yes.
View attachment 2159283
6. If you see below the application, it will say "Searching" next to NAND. Time to plug in your phone. DON'T FORGET TO REMOVE THE BATTERY BEFORE PLUGGING IN YOUR PHONE.
View attachment 2159284
View attachment 2159285
7. Now you're done flashing, it's time to boot into CWM. Unplug the phone from USB. Put on battery. Press Vol+ & Power Button simultaneously. When ZTE logo appear, RELEASE ALL BUTTON.
8. Let's hope you boot straight into CWM
If you have this, then CONGRATULATIONS! you are now a step away from root!
4. Install Root & Busybox zip file using CWM
1. Copy the "Root_Superuser_3.1.3_Busybox_1.20.2-Update1-signed.zip" onto the root of SD Card on your phone as normally you would (I wouldn't elaborate since this is android 101 knowledge)
2. Boot into Clockworkmod (CWM) recovery. To do this, turn off your phone normally. 5 seconds after the phone vibrates (fully off), press volume up (vol+) and power button. Wait until ZTE logo appears, then release both buttons.
If you do this correctly, you will see "CWM v 5.5.0.4 for ZTE V"
to navigate, use volume up (vol+) & volume down (vol-). to select, use power button.
3. Select "install zip from SD CARD" > "Choose zip from sdcard" > Look for "Root_Superuser_3.1.3_Busybox_1.20.2-Update1-signed.zip". REMEMBER: Navigate using volume button, select using power button.
then, confirm by selecting "Yes - Install Root_Superuser_" and pressing power button.
when completed, go back to main menu and select reboot.
if nothing goes wrong, you will see SuperUser and busybox icon in your App drawer.
UPDATE:
12082013 - finished 4th item - install root & busybox
todo - revise SP Flash tool version

Of course you can. Btw, I successfully root my phone using your recovery.img and scatter file. The only thing I need to change is SP Flash Tool. I downloaded new version SP_Flash_Tool_v3.1224.01, because your provided version doesn't work for me.
Anyway, thank you very much for all the files.

remove your battery and replace it again, and then turn on. I got the same problem back then and those steps worked for me.
Is it specific for each device? Or does it depend only on finding the correct partition/block to be extracted?
Could you point me to further readings about that?
Thanks.
It is at least device specific, for extracting the bootimage, check this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1951426

Well, that link is to proceed AFTER you have boot.img at hand. I want to find a way to extract it from my phone (assuming default.prop can be changed in there).
Thanks.
When you make a back up with CWM, you have a copy of your bootimage in the clockworkmod map, not?
That's the thing ... I am trying to figure out how to get that backup in hand at first.
Currently, following the method in http://droidcore.blogspot.com.br/2012/12/how-to-edit-initrc-in-android.html
It seems to use the same scripts as cited in your link.
Will post results afterwards.
Don't make things more complicated as they are. If you just install CMW recovery (or TWRP for that matter) for your device, you have your full backup in minutes, including one of your bootimage, then use the script from my first post.
I managed to find boot.img, made the necessary changes, sent it back to device (used MPK Rom Studio and SP Flash Tool).
The problem is, the reason I want to change boot.img is to root my device. I thought that disabling ro.secure, I would be able to do so. But I couldn't.
I believe cmw recovery, or twrp, both need my phone to be rooted, no?

I used a CWM image to root my device. Booted up with that image, and flashed SU....after that you can use su, and apparantly, with the changes you made with your bootimage...you'll be like God on your phone

I have the same problem, I need the boot image of my device to root it using magisk manager, but I can't find it.
Help!!!!!
Hey simply extract the boot.img from the stock firmware if your device is not rooted......
I think this only possible when you have root..
It is also not possible with adb without root...so
If your device is rooted with magisk then untouched boot.img is placed in /data folder as stock.xxxx.gz format and simply extract it....
If your device is rooted with one click root apps then download kernel auditor app and select backup option and the boot.img will be available in android/data/ kernel auditor specific folder....
Hope this help
Edit:- If your device is Mediatek, using SP Flash Tool you can readback. If you have Snapdragon, then bkerler's edl tool can readback. (No need of root)

just google "Latest Software Version for OPPO OPPO AX7" and go to the Software Updates page on oppo-uk.custhelp.com. Download 2.4GB ozip file (like CPH1903EX_11_OTA_0210_all_oStq7F7jxqfF.ozip) and unpackit with 7zip program. You'll find boot.img inside .ozip file.
I do not have root, there is no recovery or rom for my phone, Can I extract the boot.img from my phone storage, to patch it with Magisk?

Small update on this, there was an Android update recently, and it fixes everything ??* so if someone else here has the same issues somehow, updating to July update fixes it
I've some questions:
-does Nokia release his kernel source and which version use? on their website there is only for 3.1 I don't know if are same thing.
-Does support treble?
hello, now there is a august update for nokia 3.2 Do u have the boot file for that.. or how can I find it??
I add this phone to the list of my amazon.it account to make some stuff like twrp and roms but didn't buy yet, I'm afraid that Nokia will not release kernel source soon so in case of taking one I can make a twrp with stock kernel extracted from boot.img see ya.
Edit: buying this phone has been cancelled after reading unlocking bootloader seems to be "impossible" shame on you dear Nokia

Can you tell what your current build number is?
I suspect there is more than one firmware flavor around.

Unfortunately, I don't have my current build as a separate firmware file, and QFIL is not able to get the boot image from my phone because the communication stops right away.
My build number starts with 00EEA, whereas your boot image (and the full stock ROM on Mega that you linked) contains 00WW. I'm not sure this firmware is compatible with my Nokia 3.2 ...

I've looked around and so far could not find the stock firmware for my phone.
If I had it, I'm sure I could manage to extract the boot.img and let Magisk patch it (I've done that before with other devices).

Thanks for your efforts - I was able to solve the problem today.
It seems there are different versions of the same "programmer" around that is used in QFIL to extract your own boot image from the phone.
Originally, I used the one provided by @hikari_calyx in his unlock thread. Today I noticed that the programmer file in the stock firmware you provide here has a slightly different size. I tried this one and it worked.
So I could extract my "boot.img" from the phone. Rooting was easy after that.
I think it's always safer to use one's own boot image than trying to flash one that was lying around elsewhere.
Here is my post in the other thread for reference. Thanks again for your research and for providing the stock firmware!

Hello JFDee,
is it possible that you upload your original or modified boot image also?
Because i flashed the boot image that was given here and now i have the same problem, like said before.
WLAN is not working anymore and the Boot time is very long. Updating also don't work.
I also saw the differences in the build numbers.
My is like yours 00EEA....
This would be really nice, because i don'T find the stock image for this number.
Best regards!!!!

is it possible to install a GSI rom without TWRP?
It is possible but involves a heck ton of work you basically need to extract an entire GSI and compress each file using lz4 then repack them the way Samsung does and flash using Odin
The work involved in repacking the GSI in Samsung's format when there is no guarantee what issues the GSi will coz with the device makes it not a very suitable option
But yeah you can try for the heck of it, here's a thread that might help you

not really since samsung has no fastboot mode
try renaming system.img.ext4.lz4 as super.img.lz4 as that's the name of the file in stock

So the flash itself went well without any errors. But the tablet is in a boot loop. When it boots Samsung Galaxy logo appears and reboots. This tablet is running Android 11 so do I need to install Android 11 Lineage OS?

Nope don't think the android version would have anything to do with it is probably the os not working properly
Maybe try some other GSI like pixel experience to see if they work

I downloaded the zip file but there is no system.img file. Is there a way to extract the img file?
If I have twrp or any custom recovery can I just install it with the zip file?

Well you can extract the contents using something like winrar or 7zip and then try building an Odin flashable md5 like you did for the last one

Samsung's stock recovery is kinda strange so not sure if it could be used with some other device' twrp then mixed and mashed together to port the twrp
Probably needs to be built from the ground up

Oh ok thanks. And I was able to root this device but can I install a custom rom from that state? Tab was rooted with Samsung's default firmware with magisk installed

Nope rooting has no role in flashing custom roms that all is recovery dependent
This guide will show you how to root your Nokia 4.2. This has been tested on TA-1157 and is working fine.
**Important** - If fastboot does not recognise your device In step 5, You need to download a driver. Here is the link: Download Driver (by Beebom)
Search up how to install custom driver and install it to the “Android” device.
Requirements:
Nokia 4.2 with unlocked bootloader
USB Cable
ADB/Fastboot.
Python
Your current ROM file
Internet.
Downloads:
ADB Installer (by Snoop05 on xda) : Download
Python : Download
Payload Dumper (vm03 on github): Download ( Click on code and select "download ZIP")
Magisk APK (on your phone) : Download APK ( Scroll down and you will find the APK file)
Code:
** I have only tested this on TA-1157. Other models may not work, but technically they should work.**
** Your warranty is now Void**
Step 1
Enable USB debugging on your phone. If you do not know how to do this, Search it up. It is easy.
Once that's enabled, Connect your phone to your PC/Laptop and open the command prompt (cmd) and type adb devices. It should show your device in the list.
Step 2
Locate the Python folder. To do this, simply type "python" in the start menu and click open file location. Then, Right click on "python.exe" and open properties. Then click open file location.
Once the folder opens, make sure to not close it.
Download the payload dumper.py which I have linked in the downloads section. Extract it and place the contents of the file in the Python folder.
Step 3
Download the ROM file. If you are using lineage OS on your Nokia 4.2, Download that file. If you are using the Stock rom, Download that. It should be a .zip file.
Extract the stuff from that file and take payload.bin and move it to the python folder.
Now, Open cmd in that directory by right clicking and opening cmd. Then, Type the following commands,
Code:
python -m pip install -r requirements.txt
then type,
Code:
python payload_dumper.py payload.bin
Once it is done extracting, Open the "output" folder. There you will find the "boot.img" file
Step 4
Use your USB cable or Google drive to transfer the "boot.img" to your phone. Once you have done that, Download the Magisk APK on your phone and install the app. (APK link in downloads section)
Once you have installed Magisk, open it and click "Install". Select the file from your phone and wait a few minutes for magisk to patch the "boot.img" file.
Once Magisk is finished patching, there will be a new file which magisk has created. Transfer the patched file to your computer via the USB cable or Google drive and make sure to rename it as "magisk_patched.img"
Step 5
You are almost done! Open CMD in the folder where you saved the "magisk_patched.img" and type
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
then type
Code:
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img
Once done, Reboot your phone and Voila! Your phone is now rooted. Make sure to open the magisk app and check it.
If you need any help or you get any errors, post it down here below.

Personally, I do not recommend Kingroot as it is not very reliable and safe. Instead, you can follow this guide or follow other guides on youtube.
