Huawei Union Y538 Root? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

is there anyone know how to root Huawei Union Y538 Root? i looked through xda but cant find anything thanks in advance.

I had partial success using King Root download for android. It rooted and successfully installed the king root su binaries, however Titanium Backup complained that this version of the SU binaries may cause trouble on Android versions higher than 4.2 (or something to that effect. My Union runs Android 5). Titanium backup was never successfully able to clear system apps or move apps from the user space to the ROM space. I attempted to use SuperSu-Me to replace King Root, but upon the script's completion and prompting to restart, the device completely failed to boot past the Huawei logo. Thankfully the device was still new enough that I was able to take it back to the store without question.
Your mileage may very, but be careful and take a backup of what you can.

Kingroot works fine. As for the moving of systems apps I wouldn't because the LOCKED bootloader and kernel check that on boot and will make the device boot loop permanently. (Or until fixed since it is just a soft brick)

huawei union hotspot
Has anybody figured out a hotspot mod for this phone. It seems like other huawei phones got it to work by changing the msl, but I can't find a way to do it on the y538.

I would like to know this as well!
I successfully rooted with KingRoot. However, nothing seems to allow me to enable the native hotspot (build.prop edits, etc). Nor am I able to successfully broadcast or enable hotspot with any 3rd Party WiFi tethering apps, including FoxFi, Barnacle, or even paid WiFi Tether Router!
Any success stories or suggestions out there??
If not, does anyone know if the ZTE Speed or Alcatel OneTouch Elevate are native hotspot enabled or capable of tethering with 3rd party apps? I know the Moto E 2015 is native hotspot enabled and is somewhat easy to work with.
Thanks!

ZTE Speed has native hotspot. But i couldn't get it rooted.

I successfully got native hotspot by doing the following:
Root with KingRoot
Download Shortcut Maker (Lite) from the Play Store
Three dots on upper right -> Search... -> Search for cham -> Launch Chameleon Payload Maintenance (com.huawei.sprint.chameleon.ui.NodeCategoryListActivity) -> Allow root
Settings -> TetheredData -> Edit -> 4

I performed these steps but when I try to launch the Chameleon Payload Maintanance nothing happens.
Am I missing something?
Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide!

The only other steps I did on my phone:
my futile attempt at installing openchameleonnode apk. That one would always open to a blank screen and quit. (people mentioned it worked on various phone makers)
installing QuickShortcutMaker from the Play Store because Shortcut Master (Lite) told me su not found. That one gave me a not enough permissions warning, so I decided to root.
Did you get a request by Shortcut Master for root? If not, maybe try one of the other Chameleon Payload Maintenance on the list (there were several)?

It seems that Purify was the one causing the issue. I went to general settings and disabled "Keep Root Access" and "Auto purify" and rebooted the phone.
After that I was able to launch the shortcut and make the change.
Thanks a lot for your help!

What provider are you using. I am on Boost. Will that allow me to use my unlimited data plan as a hotspot instead of the 8 gigabyte tethering

Purify had issues I think it's something with (zone-libentertainment).

Guys,
I would like to remove "Google Play Books" and "Google Play Games" but tried a lot of apps (Titanium Backup, Purify, ES File Explorer, NoBloat Free, Uninstall, Root FileManager) and none of them was able to remove them.
I'm no expert but It seems that "/system" is mounted as ready-only so I'm not sure how it would be possible to uninstall them.
Did you guys had any luck removing system apps after rooting with King Root?

I can send it to Purify`s recycle bin as well, but I cannot completely remove.
When I try to do it one of those two things happen:
1) I get a message saying that the remove fail.
2) I get a message saying that the remove was successful but the app returns to the list of installed apps.
Are you able to completely remove?
Thanks,

[Q] Rooting a Device with citrix mobile connect

I have to install citrix mobile connect to connect to the Exchange server at work, and citrix will not run on a rooted device
is there a way to overcome this or perhaps install a different app to receive exchange sync?
(for example will "hide root" work here)?
You can try voodoo rootkeeper that can perform a temporary unroot.
I will start with this thread and see if blocks the exchange sync, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1957273
I hope rooting doenst erase my data, as I am already working for a week with the device.
Anyway, I will run titnium backup before I start

titanium backup needs root
just found that out
So - any other ROM back up program out there that doesnt neet root?
or perhaps i dont have to worry about losing data with CFAuto root?

rooting does not delete data, whereas you never can be sure 100% that it will go as planned. Nevertheless there is not app that can backup 100% of your rom without root.
so i will take my chances :0)
Ke sera sera
done, went smooth
although I am running "root checker" and it says system running slow and doenst return results
is there a specific app i should install now ? "super SU" or something?

If you rooted it correctly SuperSU or SuperUser should already be installed. Did you have any progress getting Citrix to work while rooted? Im in the same situation and I've only been able to get it to work briefly with Touchwiz based ROMs with SuperSU. All others give me a " cannot connect due to a security policy" error - even after disabling root and trying to re-enroll. Its a beast...
Yes I have
I used hide my root throughout all the process.
I check with root checker to validate it's indeed hidden.
And I keep running hide my root at all times

I have had to do the same...and all seems to work. But I had to also install two more apps enforced by policy; Lookout, and Touchdown.

Touchdown is a great app for synching all your mails, notes and Exchange data.

[Q] CleanMaster Root Access Failed

I have already given root access to the app Clean Master. Under the 'Autostart Manager' page, I tried to remove apps that autostart by itself. However, the app pop out a message indicating 'Failed to Grant Root' and reminded me to grant root access.
I went back to the superuser app, it was indicated that root access has been granted.
Any way to solve this problem?
I have been having this same issue on rooted stock gs4. It's temperamental when it comes to root I've noticed. One day I was able to turn it app off of auto start and when I installed a new app it wouldn't let me do it and su says I'm granted
I'm experiencing the same issues. Auto Start Manager is the only feature that has this issue.

I always face this issue also, what I do as a temporary fix is, go to the SuperSU app, then "Forget" Clean Master, open Clean Master and try to disable an app from Auto starting, grant root and the app will be disabled I hope it works for you too
I am glad I am not the only one having this issue. I recently updated an app via the play store and clean master told me it was auto starting. I tried to block it, but it keeps telling me root access failed and to grant it. Well I've granted it root 18 times now and it still says root failed. I have tried everything to get it to work...clear logs, tell superSU to forget clean master, give it global default, etc. Nothing seems to work and it's pissing me off.
Unfortunately this does not work for me.
I have granted root access according to SuperSU Pro however when trying to stop autostarting apps in Clean Master it reminds me to allow access.
I even get a popup massage from SU stating that the app got granted root access.
Whats happening here? Does anyone have a work around?
Deleting Cleanmaster in SuperSU doesnt help. It is always the same unfortunately.
Best Regards
J
I too also have problems with the autostart function in Clean Master on my Optimus Zone II
First of all, if you've root then you shouldn't use clean master. That's so naive.
About the permissions. Even after root your system partition stays in read only mode. I'm guessing this okay. You should check that out first.

Ok, (I know Im gunna reget this), but why?, in your option, should Clean Master NOT be used, since it need so many "root" functions in order to work? Ive used it for years. Rooted or no, (mostly rooted), and why do all the "autostart" apks, (ROM Toolbox, Autostarts, Autostart Manager,etc) work just fine. I've tryied it with r-w on system on, sooooo....next...?

I can't argue over this. Best options for you 1. Root Cleaner (high priority) 2. SD Maid Pro (medium priority)
See the difference yourself.
fix?
Has anyone figured out what the issue is here? It worked just fine on cm12 but stock Lilli nope. Root issues for sure it must have something to do with system partition. Has anyone fixed this issue?

[Q] Rooting a Dragon touch A1X plus tablet

Hey there, after reading this forum for awhile, I still haven´t managed to get a root on this device, tried framaroot, klingo root, iroot, and many more, i get the SuperSU app on the device but it doesn´t give root permissions to any other apps, have someone successfully root this tablet? or have any ideas? Thanks in advance!
Version is Android 4.4.2
Kingo root
I found and downloaded "Kingo Root". I ran it from my PC with my Dragon Touch 10.1" A1X Plus connected and it says I'm ROOTED. I already had a root checking App on my tablet and it verified that I'm rooted. Later today I'll try some Apps that require root like Titanium Backup and some different games.
Kingo seemed pretty straightforward and user friendly but until I have time to do some testing I won't be able to completely vouch for this software. But, I didn't get anything weird on my PC nor tablet so far. I do have Avast running on my tablet and AVG running on my PC so I should be protected from malware and viruses. I suggest that everyone protect your devices prior to loading any software.
Kingo Root doesn't work!

After testing last night I found that Kingo Root doesn't truly root the Dragon Touch 10.1" A1X Plus. While for a short time my root checker did show that I was rooted, Titanium Backup and other apps were not able to gain root access. At one point I had to perform a soft reset to get off a blank screen. I have discovered that the ROM used for this build is from HTC so maybe the root software used for this should be something used for HTC phones and tablets. So, keep searching folks because Kingo Root is NOT the answer for root accesss...Sorry!
My grandmother just got a "Bright Tab" 10" tablet. As far as I can determine, the same generic Chinese company that makes the particular tablet that gets branded as Dragon Tab normally makes this. This appears to be an unbranded version of the exact same tablet (I think specifically for Walmart to reduce costs a bit. They also threw in a lovely malware called "Google 12.0" that shows annoying popup ads frequently and slows down the whole system...) I noticed it even had a "DragonFire" and "DragonPhone" app in there.
Anyway, I did get it rooted. First, KingoRoot seems to sort of temproot. However it does appear to have an actual writable system partition, not one of those read-only images with a hybrid overlay mounted on boot as many systems do. So here's what you do. Run KingoRoot's app to temproot. Install SuperSU or your favorite SU app from the play store and while temprooted, manually install the real SU app to /system via the settings. Then remove the KingoRoot stuff (disable the KingoApp app temporarily to stop it from trying to take over, then you can uninstall it using TitaniumBackup assuming all goes well.) After all of this I seem to have true root and can now install Greenify, Xposed Framework, and so on.
I was hoping to find at least a CWM/TWRP option for this thing (I know CyanogenMod or any other AOSP -- or even a cleaner more proper build based on the stock ROM -- is impossible, but at least a proper recovery would be nice.) So far no good though.

It appears that your method works. I was able to perform all of the steps except for the manual install of the SU app into the /system. But all of the apps that I've tried that require root access are working. I'm still evaluating the outcome but so far so good.
Glad to hear it worked at all. Maybe try again after a reboot now that the alternate SU app has taken over? Oh, I think I had actually run Kingoroot first before running the alternate app. Since it's a temp root you have to rerun it every startup until you get the alternate installed into the system I guess.
My grandmother finally listened to me and will probably be taking that tablet back now, so I can't really mess around with it anymore to give any specifics. I convinced her to get something else that I think will make her a true Android convert instead of just wanting some little side thing for reading only, so one way or the other that thing is probably going to go, lol.

I think i found a solution after messing with my dragon touch m8... use iroot and make sure when you connect the m8 to your computer you have the usb debugging checked...unlock the screen before you plug it in and when iroot reads it you should see a pop up on the screen click ok and click reconnect it worked for me

Remove root or make apps believe there is no root access

Hi there,
configuration: LG Nexus 4 ("mako") with lineage OS 14.1, root access
I have root access as it is very useful for many apps. Unfortunately, many banking and verfication apps do not work when root is installed. For some, google app store prevents installation, others cannot be used and a security warning is given.
Is there any chance to "pretend" root acess is not given, either to all apps or to some speficif apps?

There are far too many files to make banking's apps flag and always ends in wasted time, it is far better to just use the banks main sites with a good browser.

If your device has root access, you can remove King root with other applications or from the King root settings. Uninstall the application with link2sd. If you can not delete the application, you will have to install the stock rom.

Maybe as i formatted my phone, i am no longer rooted and hence the error.
Also, i tried disabling Kingroot from phones builtin "Applications manager" and yes it seems disappeared from my App list on phone, Is it safe to say its no longer working on my phone even in background ?

The application that you deactivated will not run again, but if it really was malware, it probably installed other malware applications. I recommend you to do a complete analysis with several antivirus programs starting with Dr. Web.
