Cannot root Acer A1-811 permanently, please help? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My new Acer A1-811 came today and I wanted to root it straight away. I tried KingoRoot (the mobile app installed both 1.3 and 2.5 beta versions) but the root disappeared after rebooting device. Framaroot gave me a half-success and instructions that included something with adb, but I'm too scared of bricking my device (happened twice already, I'm incredibly bad with technology) and would prefer something one-click. Because of KingoRoot, my varranty is probably already gone and I can't bring it to a service shop anyway because I'm broke after buying it.
[ToolKit] Acer Iconia v0.9.4 was unsuccesful as well (suddenly turned off).,
Does anyone know what else can I use?

[Q] Need help rooting Dragon Touch A7 Tablet

(Edit: Sorry guys, this is R7, not A7. LOL)
Hello again, guys. I had just sold my ZTE Majesty for a tablet. It's brand new that I got off of Amazon. It was only like 100 dollars or so. But here is my problem... I can't get this to root at all. Every application acts as if it isn't an Android device. I can't connect it to my PC because there isn't a way to view the files from the Tablet to the PC.
I've tried zRoot, Poot, Spaarkyroot, Framaroot, but I couldn't get any of those to work. And like I said, I can't do PC to Tablet connection (or at least I don't know how, there might be a way.)
Thanks for the help, guys! And good luck trying to root the ZTE Majesty!
Android 4.1.1
Model Number R7
try motochopper

Hi I have a Dragon Touch DTR97 tablet, I as you tried everything I could find to root my tablet, nothing worked. Then I came across motochopper, it worked and my DTR97 is now rooted. Next step is to find a cwm_recovery.img for it. Have not had any luck in flashing a custom recovery image, yet, still trying.
I also have the same model and am looking for a similar solution.
The driver installs correctly and connects without problem, but when USB debugging is enabled and it tries to install the debug driver, it will not install correctly. This causes me to not be able to use it with any rooting programs. Is there anywhere I can get a compatible driver?

[Q] Azpen A1040 Help

I have an Azpen A1040, I am fairly new to tablets altogether.
I was trying to use the complete linux installer app to see if I could run Ubuntu on my tablet.
Well, that requires root. I have tried a few things with no success.
But the last one I tried was Vroot, it did NOT root the tablet, but yet, now Vroot is on there and I can not remove it even after doing a Facotry Reset.
I uninstalled Vroot when it didnt work, but then I did a factory reset and noticed there is an icon that looks like the vroot icon but all the text is in chinese.
I dont really need to run linux or root priveleges that bad, but now it bugs me that the vroot app is still there. What is it doing. Is it hurting anything?
Is there an easy way to get rid of it?
The specs of the tablet from the side of the box are
Azpen A1040 10.1" Quad Core Tablet
CPU MT8127 Quad Core Cortex A7
Running Android KitKat 4.4.2
You can find web specs for it at azpenpc.com
I can go in to running apps and do a force stop and disable on the chinese vroot, but I just dont want it to cause spyware or anything else.
Not even sure this is the right forum to post in, but I figure someone will point me in the right direction I hope.
Thanks
Rick (A total tablet newbie) haha

Hi Rick, did you figure out how to root this device? I have been struggling for days trying to find a root utility. Thanks!
I'm not doing what you are attempting but.
I found a couple of potential options. That worked for the limited things I was doing.
Cyanogen rooting appeared to work, though it won't allow installation of custom roms since there currently is no support.
Kingoapp I found on CNet, though I don't have any experience with it, it appeared to successfully root the device.
I would have added links but currenlty it appears I'm not allowed to. Google is your friend.

[Q] Coolpad Arise, emphasis on ROOT

I bought a Coolpad Arise (edit: Model 5560S) today at Kroger for $10 (and got 500 fuel points doing so). This phone blew me away. The proc, and gpu are better than I expected, it runs 4.4.2, and it has an SD card slot. Now to the issue:
I've been trying to get root on the device but haven't had any luck. Towel(with multiple modstrings) and Kingo didn't do anything. I'm ready to take the next step. I'm an Android developer and feel like I should help get root on this phone. I've tried to emulate the asec venerabilities to no avail. Is anyone else interested in rooting the arise? I'm not sure where to go from here but would like to have root since the stock os seams to be 99% aosp.
Pointers would also be greatly appreciated.
I'm no Dev but would love root as well. Bought 2 last night for stocking suffers for my kids. As you said you can't beat this for 10 bucks. And BTW I got 1000 points which surprised me figured I'd only get 500 for the initial, and considering I usually fill up with 20 plus gallons this phone literally was free with the discount I'll get! Thinking of going to get a third now!
Root would be great
There must be a LOT of these out there with the recent sale(s) on this model.
I'm impatiently waiting for this thread to get some action. I've tried everything. Even some Chinese program called permroot.apk that apparently works with coolpads, but I had no idea what I was doing since I can't read Chinese.

Do you have the drivers yet? Couldn't you just unlock the bootloader and load TWRP and an AOKP image that's rooted already?
Just got the arise to play around with. Still can't root device.

I still haven't been able to get root.. I went out and bought another one thinking that the system update might have locked something down (still couldn't root). Since I have second one, I'm going to try some more invasive options.
CoolPad Arise Needs Root Quick
I have recently recieved the coolpad arise and really want to figure out a way to root it. So thats why i have joined this forum thread. XD
Found this by accident, maybe it'll help get root... if you remove the coolpad battery, and plug in a usb data cable from your computer to the phone, the coolpad screen lights up and says "fastboot mode". I tried some of the usual fastboot commands, ie, oem unlock, but nothing happened, it says "waiting for device".
I bought two more of these the other day (today might be the last day for the sale so stock up).
Also found this thread: [Q] Coolpad 5560s - MegaThread: Info/Rooting??
I bought 4 of them, if I wanted there is 1 more there at the store still, lol
try using google translator i use it for that purpose xD

Unroot?
I rooted my coolpad 5560s and now the notifications and screenlock aren't working so i was wondering if there is a way you could unroot.:crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
Successful root
:laugh: I successfully rooted my coolpad arise after multiple attempts with different software. iRoot, Towelroot, vRoot, OneClickRoot, Chainfire's Root App, and Kingoroot all failed.
Someone made a root toolkit for the coolpad arise, but it failed.
I tried exploit apps to try to get root privs. They didn't work.
I then used Root Genius on a computer and successfully got root.
Do not take any updates before or after you root, because you might not be able to root.
To root enable adb on the phone by going to settings > About Device > and tap build number several times until you get confirmation that you're a dev.
Run root genius, and plug in the phone. Click the root button. If phone prompts to allow the pc access, allow it. It will root the device. You must have a good oem cable and good usb port when rooting. If root fails try again on a different pc or with a different cable. Also while rooting you need internet.
I would recommend deleting the touchpal keyboard and freezing log2file and system updates.

Will this Root Genius work with Scratch Wireless ROM? After I root, can I make a ROM dump and backup the Scratch Wireless ROM?
Oh Crap! Now I'm sort of bricked!
I was starting to get some instability (probably due to many device tweaks and the device being almost full, not from Root Genius) on my phone and I went to flash it back to stock for a re-root. This time I gave the root package another try (it didn't work for me the first time perhaps because of maybe some .net framework issues). This time it worked after powering on I followed the instructions and I went through and checked if every app worked. The browser and camera default apps did not work at all. They would open and force close. So, I decided to retry to root toolkit and my device never got pass the "Powered By Android" screen and it wouldn't boot into stock recovery. So I used the Coolpad Official Flash Tools (YGDP) and flash it back to stock. The device didn't work either. I would get the same screen and I was unable to boot into stock recovery.
Please help as I use this device as my everyday device, app dev device, and at my college classes. It is also my primary source for accessing the internet (I use the hotspot often).
Phew, got it fixed by flashing the original stock rom with the company tools.

Help rooting ZTE n9132

Does anybody know how to root ZTE n9132 5.1.1 I've been trying for days now. I've tried a couple of ways but still can't get it. Please help thanks
Sent from my N9132 using Xposed Modules
I have perm root using kingo root with pc. But I have not used any of there updates because I was worried they was security patches
Can you only root ZTE Prestige N9132 with a PC?
Im just asking is a PC the only way to root a Prestige cause nothing else is seeming to work
Kingo Root PC will succeed. The (virus clean) image at CNET is the one I used.
The APK will NOT work (as of this writing). It does not recognize the device, and quits.
However, depending on the kernel version, there is also ZTE anti-root detection involved.
You may end up with a soft-brick courtesy of ZTE (and the deal they cut with Boost Mobile).
see link at androidforums com threads zte-write-protection-for-zmax-and-other-zte-phones.1040331
The Kingo Root PC succeeded, but my phone reset immediately and is now in a (purposeful) lock loop.

Root help with Acer Iconia A1-810

Hello there! Today I tried to root my tablet, but I couldnt. And by saying this, I mean that i tried almost everything i could find, from many one click apps and PC programs to Acer Iconia Toolkit. Also I have tried manual rooting, with first unlocking the booter, and then installing SuperSU.Update from CWM, but it gave an error. Some of the app programs said that the device is successfully rooted, but Check Root didnt. The toolkit gives me 'couldnt connect' error and suggesting I turn on usb debbuging, although I had it on. I tried with TWRP, but the device is not supported. The only thing i found but dont wanna try is all data clear, go back to 4.2 version, root, disable root, upgrade, enable root. But i loose my data in the process. I have been on this for like 5-6 hours already and cant figure it out. Can anyone help me? I would be really gratefull if so.
Device: Acer Iconia A1-810 with Android 4.4.2 KitKat.
