Today I want to talk about rooting the device Lenovo A806. I have searched several forums but all where full of pure BS, until I discovered this amazing webpage which I will never change since it change my life and mentality about technology. I have recently started to study at Udacity app development and it has being a great challenge but with perseverance it's a great feeling. But anyway I found that this info right herehttps://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/one-click-root-tool-android-2-x-5-0-t3107461 and it let me to root successfully my device thought I honestly would like to remove it and do a manual root if only i get to learn how. If any Dev would like to help me become a good Dev please help me by guiding me in the right path, much love and appreciation. Hope this post helps anyone with this device and God bless you and family.

Hey guys! I don't want anyone to see this as fishing for compliments or thanks, so let's kill that idea first.
I was recently nominated and accepted as a Recognized Contributor here on xda, so I just wanted to kinda give you guys a formal and friendly introduction.

I've been an Android geek for nearly two years now, and have absorbed a lot of information in that time. While I may not be able to build my own rom or submit fixes on github, I do retain information very well and try to help out everywhere I can. I just want everyone to know that if you guys ever need help with something or just need a little guidance, feel free to ask me and I'll do the best I can to respond in a timely manner. I know the big world of root and custom roms can be a bit daunting at first, but that's why we help our newer members learn rather than gripe at them.
You guys can either post questions here or PM me, but I do ask that you try and figure it out on your own first. You'll learn a lot more that way. I promise, that's how I learned everything I know.
Devs, this goes for you too. If you need a last minute tester for something, I'm almost always available to help. I'm willing to switch roms on a dime and flash/push files to the phone. I'll be putting my GTalk ID on my profile soon, so you guys can reach me if need be.
I hope I can be as useful as possible to you guys! Happy rooting to you!

thanks brO!! its nice to see there still are some decent people who are here to help.. i respect that..
same here...good to see some more help for sure. But anyways ive just got one question here for ya and you may or may not be able to help me. ive tried to ask this in the forums and haven't got an answer so here it goes.
My phone gets warm up around the camera area almost immediately it seams like. it starts when i start using data such as scrolling around Facebook or downloading an app, etc...and was just wondering if that's normal or should i get a replacement? $590 bucks is a lot for a phone and i just want it right ya know.
Now the only reason i ask this is cuz my gnex does the same thing but it gets really hot after about 15 to 20 mins of using data.
thanks a lot for all your hard work and support for dummies like me that dont know anything lol...
Hey guys! I'm new to the forums, although XDAForums has helped me a lot before, thanks for that!
Anyway, I'm looking for developers, specially programmers interested in joining my small team of devs for a new and innovative concept on an android launcher, something very different from what has been done so far.
We have a few artists already, and conceptualists(such as myself), but programmers seem to be the hardest thing to find, and I know exactly why.
At the moment I don't want to show anything in this thread, however, if someone would like to join, I'd share all the details on what we want to achieve.
This would be a free-time project, however, if you're like me then you can put as much time as you want into it, which is appreciated!
Thank you very much and hope to hear from you guys soon!

Hello everyone,
At first, as a new member, let me congratulate you for this amazing forum and the community that is built around it. A lot of useful and interesting stuff can be found here, and I know that it takes a lot of hard work to boost and maintain a forum to this high-quality level, create a community and share knowledge, so thank you for that and keep up the good work.
To get to the point, I recently became the owner of a Google Nexus 5 and 3 days ago I upgraded the preinstalled Android 4.4 to Android 5.0. Before that, I used a Nokia N900 phone with Maemo 5 and ArchLinux (desktop Linux Distribution), and this Nexus became my introduction to the Android operating system for the first time.
So as a newbie to Android, I want to ask toy a few questions on how to make some things done.
While I had my Android rooted before, after the upgrade it probably needs rooting again, so I'd be grateful if someone points out a link to a tutorial that describes this process. I also need to install an anti-theft application, and from what I've seen, Cerberus just does what I want, but I need to install it in a way that even if someone restored the phone to its default settings or even format it, the application woud stay in place. From what I've read, it is possible, right? I don't know how, maybe it has something to do with the ROM, which brings me to my next question. Custom ROMs, what are they? How do they get installed and which one do you suggest for Nexus 5?
As for now, those are my questions. I know that I could use Google to find out more about those stuff, but I really want to learn how they work, not just how to accomplish them, and all my searches in Google result in different ways to achieve the same thing, a fact that confuses me instead of teaching me stuff. That's why I ask here.
So, if anyone could point out some links or explain to me how to do the things I want, I'd be very grateful.
Also, besides all those things, any suggestions you might have of any nature, I'd be glad to hear them and they'll be much appreciated!
Than you very much in advance. I appologize to the forum and its moderators if I posted this in a wrong category or broke any rule. I assure you that if I did, it was not intetional.
Best regards,
Elias
Should I post this over to the Google Nexus 5 forums?
[SOLVED]
Ok, after a lot of reading, I finally understood the whole concept of ROMs and Recovery.
For anyone having trouble with his first steps on those issues as well, the following links would be very useful:

Good luck!
I want to start learning the ropes in android development. I wish to learn everything I can know so that I can create apps and eventually custom roms to help the android community. I need tutors for this and I have a pc but I will not have access to it for a couple of months. I want to learn a little at a time so I can basically remember the details. I learn by doing so by the time I get my pc back it would be great to start learning then. Plus I need any tools necessary.
Thank You all for at least reading this and ahead of time thanks for the help.
P.S. I have an LG Optimus dynamic, Xelio Tab 7'', and Sprint Galaxy S3 (rooted and running CM 11 M8 broadband).
BTW can the moderator post this in the correct place because I posted this in the incorrect place due to force of habit. I'm used to posting in the thread based for my phone.
Hey medoerator. Can you help promote this so I can learn to help the community?
If not it's fine.
I have posted a few threads with no response and I really can't figure it out. So I am asking the CM community please help with the Kyocera Hydro Life. It is a great entry level smartphone and due to its low cost could be an effective emergency, back up phone or if you have little money to replace a nicer phone you had then these phones really make sense. The problem of course is NO DEV SUPPORT!! There is no recovery or even computer aided recovery and the bootloader is locked. That means the best we can do is have root. Root is great but it does not really unlock the potential of this device. A nice CM custom rom would really help a lot and kernel development would also be great. If anyone can help point me in the right direction or Ican continue endless ignored posts until I get something?
Here is a link to Kyocera Developer page which has the kernel and rom zip files. This could be useful to restore the phone if nothing else?

Thanks for any help!!

By experience, I can say you will not get any help here. There are many excelent devs here, but no one wants to help newbie devs, so no one will read this thread

You are wrong. In the right area devs help alot.
As for the question. Developers only work on phones they own. Most only get flagship devices so budget phones are normally left to people that buy them to dig in and develope for them

I am very grateful for all of the dev support I have enjoyed over the years!! I agree they help a lot!!
OK we all know that the devs will work phones they own that happen to be flagship devices I get that. I would even donate toward purchasing a phone for a dev. So how do I stimulate interest in the dev community for a budget phone? Guess it is just not going to happen. Really sucks because I think there is a lot of potential in this inexpensive device. It would be nice for people to have options other than stock! If there is any chance of any dev support it would be highly appreciated but I understand in any case. Can't blame me for trying:silly:
Thanks again Rob
