Hello XDA Guys..

So how do I root this phone? I tried the recovery mode, it has similarity with the Galaxy Y recovery mode, but update.zip for Galaxy Y wont work on my phone.. Is there any other way to root my anroid phone? THanks BTW

here you go mate. This is the closest thing I can find to E120S ...This is version E120L.EL07.0011.CL718581_REV00 and I'm not too sure if this will actually work...
http://story537.tistory.com/36
the website is in Korean but you will be able to download the firmware by clicking on the link that reads HOME_E120blah.blah.blah.low_ship.tar (810.8Mb), which takes you to another page with big ass blue button. Click on that blue button to start downloading the file
THis download link is only available till 27th Dec 2011. So be quick.
Good luck man.
Thank you brothers.there are still good men in this world
Hey everyone! as i see, am late to download firmware. enybody can help me with it? many thanks.
I think they are a couple of roms you can download.
Just google 'HOME_E120S' and you should be able to d/l stock roms.
Again, google translate is your best friend if you land on a chinese/korean site.

Try Tegrak kernel. A recovery lagfix kernel that includes rooting your e120s.

How can root? please help!!

I just got a gt HDC gt- N7102 is a 6577 mtk dual core puts the system is a JB 4.1.9, the thing is that I can not root it, I was sending the Chinese program and the steps but nothing, the phone restarts even twice while doing the step but after rootea not, the problem is that I have the google play all in Chinese and many Chinese applications, need someone to help me! Thank you very much! , sorry for my english!
Is this a cloned Galaxy Note Model?
Yes , is one clone Note 2 , can help? thanks!
help!!
The problem by Chinese Clone Handy´s is that the firmware is not compatible to European Firmware.
If you pitch, you must create your own Root-File.
A Member in a other Forum had the same Problem, the european Stock/ Custom Files are not compatible with
his HDC Clone Device and many infomation about his Devices is faked.
Do yourself a favor and buy an orginal Samsung Note Device and then you root your phone and flash
Custom-Roms without any Problems.

Understand but not is possible root?
root
Try searching google for your phone model and type root after it
Hope I helped.
i search but not get root :S , is very rare..
I think the Root files for your Device (XDA_ Root File for Note?) is NOT compatible with your Android System!
The Chinese Clone Devices have other chips installed as the Orginal Note:
Edit: The Files that you find in xda Threads are NOT compitable with your system, cause the hardware is different!
Don´t install any files on your phone, cause the chinese import clone devices are NOT compatible with any xda file.
Try a search by google, maybe you find in some chinese threads Root Files,
but i would you advise against it.
Buy an Orginal Samsung Devices and enjoy the Orginal Android Software
And you have NO Problems witth Root and here on XDA are some very nice Custom-Roms

Most likely i have the English ROM to your phone, but i'm not sure that my is for HDC. I have GT-N7102 on MTK6577 with android 4.1.9 in English, probably my manufacturer is STAR. I can provide You ROM if we will 100% sure that is for Your phone.
Otherwise, it is better not to use it may cause brick the phone.
Please contact me via email: mocny<nospam>tdi<nospam>@o2.pl
please remove all <nospam> from address
You can google the model and I am sure there are some tutorial teaches you how to do that.

[Q] How to root Samsung Galaxy Grand SHV-E270K

Good day! I am new here as a member but has been reading your tutorials about rooting phones before. In fact, I already rooted my Samsung Galaxy Note II and also my cousin's since the tutorials for those models are commonly available here. The problem is, I got this phone Samsung Galaxy Grand SHV E270K from my aunt in Korea. I searched everywhere already but hasn't found any useful info about this phone because maybe this is not so common. I found this one result on google search but I cannot post the link since I'm new user ) but the problem is , I couldn't understand what they are saying but only the title that says Stock Firmware Rooted, I tried using google translate but didn't help. I don't wanna flash that rom without being sure if it works since I don't have any backup stock in here. When you search "[Stock Firmware Rooted] Samsung Galaxy Grand SHV-E270K (Jelly Bean 4.1.2)" on google, it will show that as first result (as of now). I really need to root my phone since the samsung site says it's LTE capabled but it has no LTE options on settings. I read on some that it's because my LTE sim is not widely known (Globe Telecom) and is not recognized by phone as an LTE sim. Since my android version is 4.1.2 . the 4g switchers thingies on google play don't work at all. Thank you sooo much once again!! Waiting for sooner response from anyone.
My phone details are below:
Model Number: SHV-E270k
Android Version: 4.1.2
Baseband Version: E270KKKANF2
Kernel Version: 3.031-1552674

Hi! Good day and thanks for replying to my post. I guess they still don't have those required files for this device until now since this device is not quite common unlike the S series. I'm still hoping they will have those in the future. I'm actually thinking to flash the rom of other similar models xD but I don't think it will work.

Hi......I am new to the Galaxy Ace too (given to me when a family member upgraded).....
But not to Android OR Samsung......
I own a Galaxy W, Galaxy S2, Galaxy S5 and a Galaxy Tab 2.7......I've rooted and modified all of them......
This is the method I used to root the Ace...

Make sure yours is the 'i' version of the handset, follow all of the instructions carefully, and you should be good to go....
