I just got my hands on a stock Kyocera Hydro Life from Metro PCS. I just soft bricked my last one yesterday and am interested in making a recovery.img from this one before I do anything with it. I rooted it using Kingroot and swapped it with SuperSU. I have no real experience in developing but if there is any way I can help with this process I am willing to learn. If anyone has any links or input I would greatly appreciate the guidance.
Not sure where to start exactly. I am currently trying to educate myself using this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1610121

Hello all! I'm brand new to XDA and have been here all day trying to learn to root my Motorola Atrix running 2.3.6. Unfortunately, there's not much help for those of us trying to root from a mac. I'm a total n00b at rooting entirely, so I really need a basic, detailed guide on what I need to do. I managed to find the one thread on here about rooting for mac, but even those steps weren't clear enough apparently because I couldn't get it to work. If anyone could help I would greatly appreciate it.
Hello, I'm new to the forum also the world of rooting. I have a ZTE Groove x501_USA_Cricket (Model) That I can't for the life of me find any information on rooting or doing anything on it. So I reached out here, and hopefully to get some help and possibly a guide to do so. Since I'm very new to rooting and don't want to mess up my phone. Advice, and such is really helpful. Hope to hear from some of you pretty soon. Thank you!
Bump.

I just recently went through the MANY problems that came along with rooting this phone. I was able to successfully root it using the giantpoon method. Just 2 files and the pooter does the work. PM me for the links.
As far as I can tell, there isn't a custom recovery or ROM for it, but I was able to remove some bloatware and improve the overall battery life by altering some minor settings (using ROMToolbox). My issue is that the wifi stopped working and in an effort to undo any potential damage I had done, I tried restoring (NOOB!)... Needless to say; I now have an unrooted x501 with no working wifi. If I choose to get my service turned back on for it, I should be able to reroot (the ministro ii app requires some resource files), then it's just a matter of finding a good backup of the stock ROM so I can do a complete fix.
Hello humans, I'm from sgh-i337 and since Everything is so different so I need a complete guide to flash 4.4.2 venom one on pure stock 4.4.2 htc one. I looked around this forum for two days but I still can't understand the steps. The phone is basically pure stock, no s-off or unlocked bootloader. Also, an unbrick method will be very helpful just in case. I respect htc one devs and i am thankful to them for making a better world. So, if someone could help me step by step, it will be very thankful.
Please, the turorial about rooting and custom recovery in 'T-mobile HTC One general' appears to be last edited in 2013 and i don't think it will work on 4.4.2 kitkat. or please at least tell me whether that method works.
Hi guys, I was wondering if anyone has any insight on how I would get this phone rooted? I've tried just about everything I can think of and haven't found any luck. Has anyone rooted this phone? Any tips or suggestions are much appreciated.
Thanks
i've got this same device and would love to get it on AOSP!
I'm hoping as well, my trusty 3+ year old Nexus 6 just bit the bullet and I switched to this phone. Would love to root and install Lineage on it.
Anyone?

How to root LG Xpower3 (LM-X510L) MTK chipset
Hey Guys,
I have been searching everywhere on google to get a stock firmware for this device however i can't seem to find it anybody has a stock firmware for the ZTE Avid 4 Z855 from MetroPCS some moron decided to root this device and it can't receive OTA updates because of the root. I tried different methods just in case: wiping cache partition, removing root, hard factory reset but it won't work so anybody can lend a hand or guide me to the right path? Would really appreciate the help.
I know calling the guy a moron is a bit harsh but in my unpopular opinion a device should be rooted or modified after it is done receiving OTA updates from its carrier to extend life of the phone especially if its a good phone.
