How to root the Venue 7840? - Dell Venue

I've just managed to unlock my tablet. How do I root it now? Do I have to flash it a new image?

Intel Platform Flash tool does not work for me. I am getting an error. Could clockworkmod work? Cyanogenmod?

root dell venue 8 3480

Did anybody had any luck with this tablet please?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/dell-venue/development/guide-how-to-root-android-4-4-4-dell-t2918427
I manage to follow this guide up to the point where it says to flash the rooted rom
Rooted Android 4.4.4 boot.img
but when I do that the tablet does not boot
If I flash again the stock boot.img the boot process returns to normal
Maybe the problem is that the rooted img is for 4.4.4 but during this guide Im downgrading to 4.4.2
thanks

z3V root and flash problem

So, here I'm stuck with the z3v after my 6plus sold to my uncle. Running E.44 and the root method seem not working, I already install the king root and can't replace with the superSu, keep saying "fail to update, reboot"... and trying to degrade firmware and the flash tool keep said "can't reconize device, check the driver....." Saw topic with instruction to kkng root temperary and "dual recovery" what's the dual recovery is it?
Is it possible that verizon will open bootloader for z3v??
install kingoroot and then recovery and then install prerooted firmware through recovery
no need to unlock boot loader... it's direct method

Follow my guide as worded. You've done the first step in rooting it with Kingroot. Now you need to use the dual recovery installer to install the custom Android recovery, TWRP. Then you flash my prerooted Lollipop.

Help: Unbrick Dell 7840 that is bootloader locked

Hi Everyone,
So i tried a installing the latest version of Xposed x86 and got my Dell 7840 bricked.
It's running the latest 5.1 OS (Nov 2015 update), but is NOT OEM unlocked ( I can't for the hell of me figure out how it is bootloader locked and rooted! ).
It does not have custom recovery, only stock recovery so i can only do ADB sideload but not update from zip?
I can get to the fastboot menu, but i can't do the tethered recovery as everything failed due to locked bootloader.
i can't unlock the bootloader via fastboot as i can't boot to the OS due to stuck at the Intel inside bootscreen.
When i goto the covery mode. i see "Venue 8 7840-user 5.1 LMY47I BBP803A173600DEL release-keys"
I tried to use the Intel Platform flash tools to flash DD0_BB.xml as per some unbricking guide, but this seems to only work if you are in the OS and not in the fastboot mode.
Any help will be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
i managed to get the flash to work and got into tethered CWM and flashed a brand new system, all is well, thanks!

I have the same problem, you were facing, except I cant even get into recovery....
Do you remember how you solved it?
Hey,
download bootloader and firmware (e.g. https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0B0hcxOtcOlhLdTJzbDhiNFhfTEk&export=download) and flash 5.0.1 fastboot.
Then use FBRL to reinstall the system.

Custom recovery for Zuum Sirius (Coppel)

It's a phone sold only in mexico it seems, network unlocked, bootloader unlocked, dual sim. Here are the phone specs:

I want to have root acces and a custom recovery obviously, but there is no official custom recovery (TWRP nor CWM), and, for tools like Easy Magic TWRP Installer to work is neccesary to have root acces. I've tried tools like Kingo Root, but it did't work, and most methods to have root in these cases is to flash supersu.zip through twrp or cwm. I've tried to port a recovery for mt6580 using a method like this : https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/guide-twrp-3-0-x-mediatek-devices-t3379681 , flashed it but didn't work and stock recovery is still there. I have a stock rom [URL="https://www.needrom.com/download/zuum-sirius-coppel[/URL], and TWRP's official compilation guide says that I need certain BoardConfig.mk file, which I can't find anywhere in the uncompressed stock recovery. Does somebody knows if yuweng's script for compiling twrp with bbqlinux works without root?
Thanks in advance , help of any kind is welcome
