I have been coming to this site for a very long time, was a huge CM user back when I had the HTC G2. I hope I posted this in the right section, as I havent really made my own posts before here, so if not im truly sorry and hope it can be placed in the right section without punishment .
Now Ive done a alot of searching here about this device and unless im doing something wrong, I cant seem to find much at all on it. It was released april of this year I guess, but I just recently aquired one, which comes with stock 4.4.4 (KitKat). I have rooted this device successfully, but I am unable to find any custom recovery (unsure if CWM or TWRP will work, a little nervous about trying to install and mess the device up lol) that would work on this device, much less any custom roms or anything at all on XDA. I'm actually suprised that there isn't a Thread dedicated to this device as its actually very nice.
So anyway, I was just hoping maybe someone involved with development on this site could possibly look into this device and maybe this device could get some attention and maybe some community support so some custom stuff could start coming out for it? Its a nice device and would love to see it have its own section here at XDA, thats all .
Anyway, sorry to bore everyone with this thread, just trying to bring the Alcatel Onetouch Pop Astro to the light here is all.
Thanks! [emoji6]

Hey, would love to know how you rooted this phone.. been trying for quite some time now..
No luck using any mobile rooting software or desktop(king,kingo,baidu,superoneclick,mobilego,root genius) nothing seems to be working lol.
Appreciate the response if you reply.

A3FUMF0 is known to block root. Tried using Kingroot a couple of times with different versions, didn't work for me.
Yes, you need to downgrade, but the only way that I know of (I also created an article of this) is flashing a factory image to the phone directly. Just keep in mind of this before flashing because it is hard to recover if you don't do this and you will have a bricked phone as an outcome:

Okay, I did everything that was said and now I am on A3CUMC1 4.4.4 and I tried Kingroot and I think it worked...
Awesome, thanks, just used Kingroot root checker and it's rooted, much appreciated.
One more quick question, what steps did you take after you rooted your astro?
Any custom roms/recoveries that are usable?

Sadly, there isn't any custom ROMs/recoveries available for the OneTouch Pop Astro
After I rooted my Astro, I installed some root apps (Titanium Backup is one example) and Viper4Android. That's pretty much what I use with root on this phone.

Heads up for anyone wanting to develop for this device - Had one of these with a broken screen I was about to toss, so I tried to see if there was any chance of getting anywhere with flashing. Nope, Error 100 , unauthorized firmware and device seems to be bricked.

ok so yea i had to run kingroot on the pc and kingroot oneclick root app several times before it would properly take root.you may have to keep clearing the cache data on the app and make sure developer mode and oem unlock are checked.cant guerentee those both are requirements ,or that its a safe stable way to root eitheir bc when i finally got mine to take root it turned off and froze like it was hard bricked for a while but after removing and installing the battery back a few times it turned back on and was confirmed to be properly rooted by the root checker app from the app store even though i dont think the rooting app said it was sucsessfully 100% completed. hope it helps good luck..

Hi guys!
Asking u to help me with my problem.
I have some problem with touchscreen on my Defy Plus so i've decided to sent it to warranty repair. But i have rooted device and I need to unroot it before sent as u all know and i dont know how to do it.
I have Motorola Defy Plus with rooted official 2.3.6 Android firmware (4.5.1-134_DFP-231). I've rooted it with DEFYPLUS_U3_4.5.1-134_DFP-231_CN_SIGN_UCADEFYEMARAB1B50AA009.0R_PDS03C_USAJRDNGIBRIRD15_P015_A030_Service1
FF.sbf.gz. For root i used RSDLite5.6 and Motorola_End_User_Driver_Installation_5.1.0_32bit also i have SuperUser apk and ROM manager apk on phone now. I need to cleen all root files and restores facroty settings only after that i can sent my phone and hope warranty center will not deny repair because i changed firmware.
And 1 more question, will i can root my Defy Plus when it will come back from warranty center?
Best regards!
UPDATE
I've made unroot with z4root.apk from my phone but now have another problem - dont know how to remove SuperUser.apk. Does anyone know how to do it?
UPDATE
Didnt find solution to remove superuser.apk (tried with RootExplorer, RootBrowser, from PlayMarket etc) with unrooted phone so i've made root again, remove superuser.apk through RootExplorer and then flash unrooted firmware, system works normal and i'll send it to service asap.
Hope it'll be helpfull for anyone.

It seems that the random loops happens if you play with cache and other stuff only, for backup and restore works fine. I guess we was using the same files, prolly will be a trouble when we attemp to install the new room cause we cannot clean cache etc etc but so far on my test is working fine and as long I don't use anything else than restore and backup on CWM works fine.

i did not used CWM recovery,for anything,didnt use the wipe cache or anything,after exiting CWM recovery,bootloops strated until i got stucked in the logo.
So even if you are using the one for the p715,in the same thread they say that its unstable and does not worth the risk,i hope you can find another way to make a CWM recovery for this model,cause the one thing thats holding me back its that the booloader its locked.

Hi,
I bought this on gearbest but it is not rooted... I tried to root with king root and other one touch app but nothing... How çab I do? Is there a way to have a custom recovery on the device? How can I open the recovery? Thanks
The old method of booting a custom recovery from SD card doesn't work anymore.
Guess we have to wait until they release an update.
Manipulating the original update.zip is too much work and getting it verified, etc.
The stock recovery can be accessed by holding down "reset" while powering on the device.

Framaroot on Amlogic based board and Android M? Don't think so.
Kingoroot is not much different to Kingroot / Kinguser, they also struggle with Android 6 methods...
You need the box? It's not that great tbh. An older box with 5.1.1 and OTG port is more practical in daily use at this point.
It will take a while before we can play around on this device, give it some weeks (...at least ^^).

Yeah you are right, Framaroot is way to old. But maybe the little differences in Kongoroot will do the trick No idea how similar they are, just started looking into it this WE.

Since those boxes are on "sale" every other day, you won't have a problem getting a decent one for a fair price...
Or just check sites like freaktab.com as well (besides XDA, ofc. ^^) so you can see which box is supported by the community and has TWRP and root options available.

Unless the "nameless manufacturer" decides to release a pre-rooted variant of the same build or a separate recovery update, we have to keep trying, because:

Tanix TX3 Pro firmware is rooted with Superuser. Can you extract the files from this firmware img, replace Superuser with SuperSU and make an installer zip from those files? Maybe it's more complicated than that, I'm not up to speed on how it all works yet.
Bingo Bronson did some digging and found that "the SU daemon service is baked into the boot.img and they placed binaries in 'bin' & 'xbin'". Maybe you guys can put your heads together and come up with something?

Seriously, I was thinking that at this price point it would be on here pretty quickly. I can't even get the damn thing into download mode. I get it to the download screen, where it says hit volume up to enter download and power to exit and regardless of what I do it reboots to system. Really frustrating.
Anyone with any luck?

Been looking at this phone as a possible secondary, mess-around-with device since the R1 Plus is a bit too pricy. Would any of you mind giving me the Android version, kernel version, and security update for this phone? A screenshot of the settings screen would do just fine
It would take programming knowledge, but I wonder if we could use a known Linux kernel exploit to get root on this thing, or maybe better yet a bootloader unlock (very unlikely but not impossible)

Thanks for that. This is unfortunately what I was afraid of--although the security patch isn't the newest it's still pretty new. Fortunately it's still a 3.10.X kernel, as there seems to be lots of potential vulnerabilities listed for them on this one CVE website I took a look at before.
Getting root will no doubt be tricky, but I don't think it'll be impossible. I know some people from the other Amazon Prime phone that were able to turn a known vulnerability into an actual exploit, so maybe I can contact them and ask for some help if they're willing. In the meantime of course, we just have to keep our eyes open for anything anyone else comes out with, and of course NOT TAKE ANY ANDROID UPDATES EVER.

Nope, not looking too good here. Wasn't able to reach the others I said I would try to get in touch with. For now just make sure you don't take any firmware updates, and I guess keep trying with apps like KingRoot/Kingo every now and then to see if something eventually works
Hold off on updating firmware guys. May have found something you could use. The article says it's made for the Nexus 6 bootloader but I wonder if it could be ported to other devices?
EDIT: False alarm, looks like its only for Motorola bootloaders (Nexus 6, and MAYBE other things)

Aww, I would've kept it if I were you. They came out with an open source tool that lets you check bootloaders for vulnerabilities. If we got ahold of some firmware files, maybe we couldve found some potential holes in the software to exploit...

after reading the install directions I have no idea how to install to device and how to make a dump stock image?
Its easy, you download magisk manager apk , you donwload your firmware unzip and on magisk manager select installé / patched boot.img select the boot.img on your firmware file, a new patched-boot.img is create after this you flash the new patched-boot.img with fastboot or maybee exist a tool for your phone brand for flash i dont know for your phone and finish
Regards

Hello XDA-Forums!
Lately I've upgraded from Android 4.4.4 to Android 7.0 Nougat.
My old phone used to be rooted, which I was happy with.
Now I have a new Samsung Galaxy S7 (SM-G930F) which is running on Android 7.0
Straight away I tried rooting my device like I did with my old phone, using KingoRoot for PC. But unfortunately, that didn't work. I
also tried using other 3rd party software such as KingRoot but no luck either.
I had a look on this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...nt/sm-g930-exynos-cf-auto-root-t3337353/page1
So I tried rooting my phone using CF Auto-Root, with Odin v3.10.6, but that didn't work at all and also caused my device to go into a boot-loop and made a message appear. The message was "Recovery is not Seandroid enforcing". So I had no choice but to flash to Stock firmware.
My question is, why can I not root my phone properly? Am I doing something wrong?
Hope someone knows the answer to this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers!

Old methods dont work with latest devices, especially with latest security features and bootloader restrictions.
You can still root it using this guide.

Okay, so I had a look at the link you offered me and gave it a good read. But all the links are classed as malicious, so I don't have any access to the right files etc. What can I do?
Thanks

Alright okay. But which ones do I specifically need? Because it says I have to get a ROM from the link they offer but it's blocked.
Sorry if I'm bothering you too much. Just need specific instructions as to what I need to do. Don't want to brick my phone.
Thanks.
