Hi!
I was wondering if there is root for z5c's with locked bootloader, I'm really trying to find it all over the internet, and it bothers me that it passed quite much time since release, around 1.5 year I'd say. So if anyone has some information that could help me I'd appreciate it.
Sorry for bother and thank you in advance!

if root fails and became a brick it alot easier to fix with bootloader unlocked

Thank you for answer, altough I am newbie at these stuff, I am sure I'd keep up with marshmallow despite I have better experience on lollipop. My main question is can i even hope for making new root solutions for xperia z5 compact, as this is now considered "foreign" phone jn my opinion, because of a lot of new brands coming to the top. So can I even hope got it or should I just go on Nougat. I won't experiment until my warranty is over as I am new to these stuff so I'd prefer root solution for locked bl.
Again thanks for answer and sorry for bother i know these are moronic questions for u
I'm also still hoping for a root solution with locked bootloader. I came from z3 compact, and there was no issue there. Even worked with kingroot, so why not z5, right?

I have a feeling z5c is not "targeted" with root development as many new phones have arrived since.

Thanks for your reply sir
maybe you should just wait until another way of rooting appears, the only way at this time to root xperia is with unlocked BL as you already might know. I ve done some research as well, and I ve found nothing about unlocking blocked bootloader either. if you hadn't tried yet, you could have a loot at this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1527159
dont you worry there is root ,ones we get the 4.0.4 there is a way to root look on the xperia series 2011 if it will work on their 4.0.3 it will work on ours with some changes! pray that we get that quickly.
Problem with the 2.3.7 is that the it bug free everyony try to root in HTC, Samsung so companies did the fix so now is quit difficult to root !!! I mean without unlocked bootloader !!!
Stop cried it out about that be patient
edit There is no rush to root phone is fully work , at least my one there is no need to root nay way
- camera is work fine
- mp3 player is superb, equlizer+bass boost
-flash work great
- is not laggish
- Sony did good work with the ui view
2 reason why root only so is not to bad
there is no NTFS support one thing,
OC will be good but for now is still in progress, we can wait
So my mom got this version which seems isnt in any of the kits and scripts dint work on it..
All I want is to root, which from my understanding means I need to unlock bootloader, I do prefer team win recovery, and to install CM.
I looked for a thread but found non, any chance for help and guidence?
TY
P.s
Also people keep writing ftf, which im not sure what it means, and a C6602/3 nersion which I cant find in my "about"

I think 10.1.1.A.1.253 is an earlier version. Mine was bought about 2 months ago and it came with 10.1.1.A.307. You can try Doomlord's root method (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2333566). It works for me, albeit on 307.

All the information can be found in this forum if you look for it...
If you're asking such basic questions, I'd just leave things alone or you're heading for disaster (and risk upsetting your mom at the same time by voiding her warranty & loosing all the Sony DRM keys)
Hey everyone! New here. I just got my new ZTE Majesty from Straight Talk yesterday and I hear its a relatively new phone out on the market. But, ever since yesterday I have been trying to get this darn thing rooted, but I have had no success. I've tried Motochoper, z4Root, SRSRoot, Unlock Root and a few more I can't remember. I don't get what is up with this phone, but it seems almost impossible. It's like there is something missing. I can glitch z4Root to get it to stay for a little bit... but it's barely functional. It goes away anyway.
I am running Android 4.1.2, if that has to do with anything. If anyone needs more information to help me, please do ask. I've been at work over this for the past 26 hours and it's making my brain melt.
Thanks so much. And again, if this is in the wrong section, somebody please move it. At least that way I know I'll get more hits on this problem! =)
Bump!
I'm really sorry for bumping, but I have to try to keep this at the top and not hidden away and forgotten. I have tried a few more methods (probably more dangerous methods) that also didn't work. I have posted elsewhere about rooting this phone but I haven't found anyone who can do it. Thanks so much. I know there is someone out there who can help! =D
ZTE Majesty Z796C
For the simple face that this phone came out in Sept 2013, it's no wonder why an exploit hasn't been found. Also, to complicate things, it's running Android 4.1.2. Correct me if I'm wrong, but from what I've found, this is a particularly difficult one to crack. I found a video online but the root doesn't stick. When it reboots, it's gone. Very frustrating. If anyone has anything, please let me know. Can't stand not owning my device...
BTW, it does indeed have dual core processor at 1.2 GHz.

You're talking about that Chinese root, right? That one come's SO close. But yeah, after it restart it goes away. But I have it to where before the root process ends, it sticks... but it doesn't work properly and doesn't say your device is properly rooted. Then once you restart it, it goes away. I'm trying to keep this topic as active as I can because I know someone out there is wanting to help me =D
UPDATE: I have tried the Chinese root method, SMSRoot, OneClickRoot, Klingo Android Root, SuperOneClick, RescueRoot, Poot/Ministro, z4Root, Framaroot, and even UnlockRoot Pro (a friend of mine has it). None of them Root the phone or root it permanently. It's as if the phone removes it purposely after reboot. I even tried manually rooting and no dice. Please Obi Phone Kenobi, where's our only root?
Yeah those are all the ones I tried too. I did post this on a lot of android forums but I still can't get anyone to help. This phone is about 2 weeks old and should have a root by now. If you do find a root though, would you post it here? I've been searching since the 13 for a root XD This forum may be the only chance because, well, it's a dev forum!

I just ordered one of those phones since it is on the Verizon network and that does work in the mountains and I am going to NC from Miami, I need a good throw away, anyhow......
I like to root them. My MetroPOS GS3 is rooted and I can hot spot it on 4G LTE if I need to
Even thou this would be at 3G speed, I still want to be able to hot spot 'em
so if anyone does find a root that works.......please post it here.
Also if it can be one-clicked because I use a Macbook Pro on the road, and I don't have bootcamp/Win7 on it like my iMac here at home. (That or some way to make it work thru a Mac to root it)......thanks :fingers-crossed:
So has anyone got a good root for this yet? I've been asking around but no progress. I wish I knew the problem.
It's as if 4.1.2 intentionally rejects the root and uninstalls it upon reboot during the boot process. I tried looking up the exploit from other ZTE phones, but I believe it was fixed...

Yeah. That's how it seems, especially since I can get Kingo to root it and if I unplug my device from my PC right before it finishes to tell it to shut down. But it works very temporarily (like, super temporarily. Titanium Backup doesn't work and I can't install a hacked Google Play). Root checker says it is rooted, though. But only until I restart.
Any way to downgrade this to 4.0 at all?
Crazy ZTE
Wow do they really have this phone locked! I've tried everything under the sun to ROOT this device....NO GO!!!!.....Man this is kinda fun. I really do like a good challenge...
Any luck, folks? OneClick Root's website is now claiming to work on Majesty: Has anyone attempted it lately? I'm new to rooting and a bit nervous.

I just tried it and it doesn't work. They trolled me lol. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't try it because I could have made my phone unrootable by trying so many different methods on it. I would honestly SEND my phone to a professional rooter and get them to make a method for it.
Try This

Just looking to root the most current OTA, my search so far makes me believe its not possible. Is this true or am I missing something?
Thnak you!
I'm wondering the same thing. I recently had to get a replacement phone and unfortunately it's running stock 4.4.2. First time I've ever had a phone with a bootloader that couldn't be unlocked. I would like to at least have my phone rooted. Anyone out there willing to share a root solution with us?

Yeah it really sucks. I need root to fully make use of my chromecast. A bunch of devices received screen mirroring but not the note 2. Such a sinple thing but so difficult to root. Hope we can get root soon. Thank you to anyone who is still working on this.

Hello,
I've just bought an fresh new HTC One X+ 64GB (last stock from HTC probably, it was very cheap , just 150€)
It bring the ROMv4.1.2 that I like very much
Somehow the phone gets updated via WI-fi to ROM v4.2.2
The reason why I post again this topic is because I've searched and searched to revert to v4.1.2 and always read the word Impossible!!!
The phone heats a lot, the battery lost capacity and I HATE HATE and HATE the ROM v4.2.2.
The question that I leave here to you guys, is really IMPOSSIBLE TO revert to Original ROMof my phone WITHOUT ROOT?
As the phone is quite new, I don't want to lose the warranty!
I've seen a lot of videos on youtube saying stock rom without root, but they use the fastboot, that it seam to be the ROOT!
I've rooted already my Samsung ACE2 and updated using Odin, but on HTC I'm quite newbie.
Can anyone help.
thanks in advance,

Hi,
Thanks for you reply
Just an additional info:
Today I've called to HTC Portugal, and received an very negative feedback.
Means that they are not able to downgrade to v4.1.2!!!!
This is annoying to me and unacceptable for me.
Why I can't get my phone back as I purchased?!!!!
I still on the way to press HTC Portugal, but seems to get some resistance.
I really like the word "impossible" in software matters!
HTC is giving me and different opinion now, at least in Portugal!
Can anyone inform if fastboot for HTC is the same has the so called ROOT?
Until now I've no certainty!
I've read posts saying "downgrade without ROOT" and using fastboot!!!
I'm afraid if using fastboot that lost the warranty!!!!

The thing is you cannot downgrade HBOOT ( the bootloader) and thus you cannot downgrade to 4.1.2
if you want to, install the android rev 8 HD rom, it is essentially sense 5 4.2.2, but i think you can set it to install without like root and xposed

I was wondering that some how possible to downgrade!
Probably that's why HTC Portugal says they won't Downgrade! Not because they don't want to, but because is technically impossible!
