Yes there is.
I've downloaded and installed moboro for the drivers and after that I used kingoapp, a one click root program, to root the device.
However, some programs say it is already rooted and kingoapp also says this. I pressed root anyway and it worked. root checker shows I have root acces and I have been able to the resolution.
However I'm not sure unrooting completely works because I got an error. Nevertheless root checkers showed I had no more root access so it kinda worked.
I hope this helps!
Maybe you can also help me....??
Because of the slow performance I tried to lower the resolution en dpi and one of the apps deleted my build.prop.
I cant find a back up or an original image I can flash back on the device.
If you succeed in rooting, can you please make a backup of your original rom/build.prop and share it with me so I can try to get the tablet to work again?
Good luck and with kind regards

I'm trying to get use out of this aging tablet. I figured there aren't going to be any updates coming so I would finally like to root the device. However, everything I've read and tried is outdated and hasn't worked. I was wondering if someone could help me root my device. I'm not looking to run any ROM or anything. I'd just like to have root and superuser access so I can uninstall a lot of unwanted apps. Below is my device information. I've just recently done a factory reset and have not installed any drivers on my computer. Starting fresh.
Computer:
- Windows 7 64-bit
Tablet:
- Android Version: 4.1.1
- Build number: 10.4.2.18
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I tried using Kingo. While the program said it rooted the device, I didn't have root access when I checked the app Root Checker and Titanium Back-up to uninstall all the unwanted apps.

Is your device unlocked? If you're not and you don't have any warranty, try unlocking it first then use kingo. It's what I used on several TF201 with no problem, but they were all unlocked so I don't know if being locked would cause the problem.

My device is NOT unlocked. How do I go about unlocking it? After I do so, I'll give Kingo another try.
You can disregard! I tried Kingo again, without unlocking, and for some reason it worked this time! I am currently uninstalling all the bloatware. Thank you all for your help.
Trying to root a tablet, vroot works but loads the tablet with Chinese crap and seems to block swaping to supersu or super user, going to factory reset but need a clean way to root it, framaroot says not supported. It's running 4.2.
Thanks.
Bump, anyone, I need to get this done asap for someone.

You could download the MTK Droid Tool.exe and try to remove them with it. I think u got some good chances to remove the all if u use this tool.
I have the same Device but my Touchscreen doesn´t work, if u know a method to root it without ADB Shell and Applications on the Phone uyou would really help me out. :b

I am using aa Lenovo vibe x2-eu running android lolipop 5.0.2 i've tried kingo root, king root, root genius from pc and apk and nothing works for me i have usb debugging enabled and the developer options as well plz tell me what app can root my phone.
And if you know how to root it do you know if there is any good custome rom i could use compatible with my phone.
Plz at you know told me I am using Lenovo a6000 plus 5.0
.2
I don't know about the Roms, but have you tried KingRoot? Worked for me when nothing else would.
Kingroot is also failed plz help guyz
What did KingRoot say? Did you try more than once? Sometimes it's glitchy like that.
I use 10 more than
Come again? I did three and got root access.
Any other methods for rooting work for every models
There's always the difficult ADB way. Have you tried that method?
No I can't know??
Huh?
Kingroot is **** tokbe honest. If you cant root it the manual way just search a video on youtube how to root it or even on here. Alot safe. Kingroot takes all your personnal informations and do wathever the heck they want with it. If you are okay with that fine but id rather take 20 mins to root it the hard way and be sure everything is well done
So a few months ago I bought my first Android phone in years, a ZTE Max Duo from Straight Talk. Unfortunately, since then I have found absolutely nothing about the phone on forums like this, let alone any way to root it. Has anyone managed to root this phone, and if so, how? I don't have regular access to a PC, but if the only way to root it is through a PC, I might ask for permission to use one.
I am looking for the same with this phone.. It seems like a great piece of hardware thus far bit could use some tweaks that a root could certainly take care of but no info whatsoever.. Any help with this would be great.
I figured out how to root the ZTE max duo (z963vl) via (iroot) I have the exact file and can tell u what to enable for root email me at [email protected] il send the file
Any Success?
It looks like there are a few variants of this device. I have the Imperial Max that is sold on US Cellular. Exact same phone and specs except for the radio.

I would like a copy of that file if you still have it and don't mind sharing it.
Man I've been trying to find any custom ROM or something that can get me to 6.0+ or 7.0+ because I can't deal with 5.1.1
But after searching relentlessly it seems that it doesn't exist.
I've been trying to find a ROM we could port over but that's looking grim too. I made a request over at CM so hopefully someone gracious enough will make one.

KingRoot now roots the phone but the bootloader is still locked!
The ZTE max duo LTE (z963vl) can now be rooted via KingRoot but only temporarily. When you reboot the phone you will lose root. You can not make any system changes either still because the bootloader is still locked after root. You can not update BusyBox either. Also when you root the phone with KingRoot it says "This model restricts root authorization". To fix that error just completely close KingRoot and re-open it and it will fix the root authorization error. Dev's or anyone for that matter please help unlock this phone's bootloader please I really want to start getting custom roms and recovery for this phone plus I want to be able to write to /system. I hope this helps as much as possible and I hope the bootloader will become unlocked with all the Devs help. Also I did this with the apk version of KingRoot only because I do not have a PC.
Great news...

This is a good start... hopefully something comes of this... God I want this phone rooted!!!
Hmmmmm...
So I tried Mardeys method and it did root like he said... installed su superuser and root checker... they worked... busybox wouldn't install... restarted my phone and lost root... so I did it all again then just powered off my phone and started it with power button and volume up... took me to recovery screen with a few options... one being sideload with adb...
I am new at all this so don't know if that helps but would love to get this thing rooted...

Which superuser app are you using? The one by ChainDD just crashes when I run it, and SuperSU keeps saying the binary needs to be updated but fails when I try to do it.

Wall here's what my whole setup was... I ran King root... It said I was rooted but didn't restart my phone... I installed superuser and ran it... This is the one I used... Supersu by chainfire... I installed busy box also but had the same problem about need to update binary files blah blah blah... I then installed a root checker and said I was rooted... Super su was found and busy box... Still no reboot... So I tried installing a few root apps... I installed a app remover for bloat were and it worked... But... When I reboot my phone I lose it all... And can redo it all again but it won't stay on there... Not tech dumb but don't know enough to figure it out... Hopefully that helps you a little as far as what my experience was... Like I said before... If I boot into recovery there is an adb sideboard option so... Just hope it gets figured out soon... Would love to have this rooted with a good room on it.... Starting to think it's a hopeless cause... One more thing to add... While rooted I installed a boot manager to see if it would go into a deeper boot recovery mode at restart but it didn't...
I honestly wish I could swap out Kinguser for something else. SCR ScreenRecorder Pro doesn't seem to realize that there is root, even after granting it permission through Kinguser, which leads me to believe either I'm not actually rooted, or KingUser is garbage.
Does anyone have the firmware for this phone?
No answers? Nothing?
Did you guys try $su reboot disemmcwp in a terminal after rooting? That's always the next step on ZTE phones.
Going to try that now... Can't find a copy of the firmware anywhere however. Worries me in case I need to reflash
I'd like to get this phone rooted too I've only been only to temproot by kingroot

Just tried it myself, but after it's done rebooting, the root's still gone.
Edit: I've noticed that the XDA Labs app seems to think this is a ZTE Blade. Perhaps I might have some luck there?
Hello XDA, I have a Alcatel idealXCITE 5044R from AT&T and I am having a hard time trying to root this phone. It comes with Android 7.0, if you found a way to root it please let me know.

I'm also currently trying to root this device. Like it's predacessor, the Alcatel Ideal (4060A), the IdealXCITE does not appear to have a locked bootloader. So, the best method for rooting this device will be to port/install custom recovery, and subsequently flash the SuperSU v2.82 systemless root script from custom recovery. I'll keep you posted on my progress. Please do the same. Thanks
if we could find a way to force it to enter in to the bootloader we could flash a custom recovery. edit: adb reboot bootloader does not work.
here is the buildprop: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=817550096634788588. if this phone is exploitable by dirtycow we can create a scrip to get to the bootloader or root it.
i found this line in the buildprop, #GTS force set flash lock to pass cts ro.boot.flash.locked=1. this could mean that the bootloader is locked.

Yes. You made a good find there. Systemless root is theoretically impossible with a locked bootloader, as I'm sure you already know. This device is looking more and more impenetrable every day.
are best bet to get root access is to call or email alcatel. plus that is what they sayed about the zte zinger but it got root access.

Wondershare tunesgo looks like it can root this phone. When I was running it my phone went into bootloader mode.

Hmmmm. I've had luck with Wondershare on devices that nothing else would root. Keep us posted. Thanks
I will
wondershare failed to root this phone, man is this phone hard to root.
Is anyone still working on this device, or has it been abandoned?
I was but I just gave up on getting root access. If you think you know of a way to get root access please let me know.
Has anyone tried KingRoot? I have had it root phones that other tools failed on completly
King root doesn't work. Any ideas???
try NUTSACKrootSystem it works for everything except getting you a life
Yet you're wasting your time posting non sense like that on some online forums. Apparently its you who needs to get a life buddy.
could anyone give me stock rom of 5044r?
