I am having problems getting my zte sonata 3 rooted. I am able to get root with kingroot but doesn't persist. I tried your steps and was unsuccessful. Which version of flashify and supersu did you use? If I can get my device rooted I will send you the Stockrom.
Hmm that's kinda funny in a not so funny way lol, exactly which version of king root did you use? Did you use a PC? Ugh this phone is **** but actually has some potential, I NEED to root it... PLEASE HELP
Reality is only in the perception of ones mind
When I tried Kingroot it failed less than halfway through, way before it even rebooted, and it said that root is not currently supported for this device and that there was 350 (or more) submissions for a root adoption. So hopefully, within time (probally a very long time), Kingroot will come out with a root method for this device. So dont give up just yet keep trying!!!
Dumb question
Could somebody help me with how to unlock this things bootloader and also fill me in on which version of kingroot you used?

I'v ran through all root methods (that i know of) for this phone (4.4.4) and none of them work. at all. Whats the point of a root dir if its impossible to access? Seems to be limited info on a root method for this phone. Is it root proof?

For now because of the locked bootloader
Root Achieved!!
UPDATE
I got Kingroot to root the zte speed!!!
but it doesnt keep root for very long. usually only stays rooted for a matter of minutes, and you have to reroot it everytime you reboot
I had to install "certificate installer" from google play and install a root certificate.
now im just trying to figure out how to keep it rooted
me to i cant get root to stay there maybe the kingroot guys can fix that in a updat.

Wanted to post update on this thread for people who come by via Google wanting to root that zte speed, as I was sick of coming by this thread as seeing no answer from the search results.
I did the following and was able to get permanent root with SuperSU
Source/Inspiration for this guide (thank you hroark13): androidforums / zte-speed-n9130-permanent-root-achieved.1061137
With ADB enabled and hooked up, run " adb shell reboot disemmcwp "from your PC. This helps to unlock some key parts for Kingroot to work much quicker and persist. That was the secret sauce that was not known in 2015 when everyone was trying to root this at first.
I used Kingroot 5.3.8 from APK mirror as that was easiest (no need to install the Kingroot application on PC just downloading the APK is enough to the phone). I was also running AnTuTu Benchmark Stress Test at the same time as running Kingroot, but this might not be necessary.
I installed Busy Box, and got the SuperSU downloaded ahead of time from the play store as well. I had tried to run Super SU but it couldn't replace the binary, so:
Finally, replace Kingroot with SuperSU by using the Super-Sume Pro app, pretty much just follow through the prompts in the app, but before you start be sure to disable Auto Updates in Kingroot first to prevent a possible conflict. The app will prompt you to reboot, which you can do.
Should have permanent root on your ZTE speed now, you can skip the last step if you like the Kingroot manager but generally people like Super SU better so I changed it to that (less janky).
Warning, if you screw any of this up there is no way to recover your ZTE speed so therefore you could end up with $20 brick.
Thank you, hope this helps someone out who has one of these in their junk drawer.
Can some one help me root a Kyocera hydro view with no computer . its from cricket it runs lollipop.
Try either kingoroot or kingroot... Kingoroot worked on my Hydro Icon.
Sent from my KYOCERA-C6745 using Tapatalk
I was able to gain root access for about 2 minutes before phone reset itself using kingoroot. Has anyone found an exploit or any other rooting methods?
I have been trying to root my kyocera hydro root since I got it but have had no success, I have tried every root method I could find but all have failed. The closest was kingoroot that did get su installed 2 times but the location of su was not able to update and upon reboot disappeared.

ill touch base with you it i find something out also i have the same phone it has been a real a$# kicker:crying::crying:
Has anyone had any more luck rooting the Kyocera Hydro View? As the others before me, I've had temporary luck with Kingo Root, but nothing beyond that. This phone desperately needs Marshmallow or at least root so that the default app install location can be changed. I can live with all it's other faults, but the storage situation is hard to get past. I had hoped to be able to root and use something like link2sd or even do a 'pm set-install-location 2' to make use of external storage and get more than only a few apps installed at a time, but no luck with only the temporary root provided by Kingo Root. The improved storage management available in Marshmallow would be ideal, but I'm trying not to get my hopes too high for that.
Have you tried Kingroot? you can usually get temp root to uninstall apps, but it might reboot itself, but if your fast, you can make changes before you lose root. But you will lose your ability to get cricket updates. You'll get a warning that the device is suspected of rooting.
Still no root for this device?

I finally got it to permanently root with Kingo Root. Took numerous times running it and phone sometimes rebooted, updated and optimized files. Did eventually root and stick permanently but took A LOT of patience. Have to keep running Kingo Root and rebooting phone. It will also reboot itself sometimes, have to let it do its thing. Again, lots of patience, rebooting phone, restarting Kingo Root, waiting, rebooting, re-starting Kingo Root...................on and on. Like 10 times or more maybe.
After root, how to get the system?

After those 10 times, did the root finally stick? Bit confused by your post? Do you still have to re-root after reboot or is it permanent?
Did any one root and flash this Kyocera Hydro View from Cricket?
Was any one successfully to root this one and install new Nougat or other OS ? is this compatible?
Does any one know how to flash this with coustom recovery TWRP etc ? as I know this doesn't go in to recovery and don't want to brick this with out having a reimage Any insights are welcome!

I see two websites for Kingo Root. Which one do I trust?
While KingoRoot was a failure, KingRoot seems to temporarily acquire root after much work, only to lose it on next reboot. Unfortunately, but has allowed me to at least remove some bloatware on this 3.5GB internal storage device. Wew.
While signing up for Cricket and finding out my T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4G from 2007 wouldn't work on their network, made a snap buy of the Kyocera. None of the 3 people spoken to while signing up with Cricket mentioned an online promotion for portaling an existing number in which I could have gotten a better phone for free or a good discount on a much, much better phone. Found out next day and wanted to take advantage of the promotion but everyone says, 'portal already happened, you missed out, we own your ****, too late.'
So far I am not impressed with their customer service. My bad for snap buy of the Kyocera deserves no praise, however.
Will try it!

Thanks for the information, well lets get started
So a few months ago I bought my first Android phone in years, a ZTE Max Duo from Straight Talk. Unfortunately, since then I have found absolutely nothing about the phone on forums like this, let alone any way to root it. Has anyone managed to root this phone, and if so, how? I don't have regular access to a PC, but if the only way to root it is through a PC, I might ask for permission to use one.
I am looking for the same with this phone.. It seems like a great piece of hardware thus far bit could use some tweaks that a root could certainly take care of but no info whatsoever.. Any help with this would be great.
I figured out how to root the ZTE max duo (z963vl) via (iroot) I have the exact file and can tell u what to enable for root email me at [email protected] il send the file
Any Success?
It looks like there are a few variants of this device. I have the Imperial Max that is sold on US Cellular. Exact same phone and specs except for the radio.

I would like a copy of that file if you still have it and don't mind sharing it.
Man I've been trying to find any custom ROM or something that can get me to 6.0+ or 7.0+ because I can't deal with 5.1.1
But after searching relentlessly it seems that it doesn't exist.
I've been trying to find a ROM we could port over but that's looking grim too. I made a request over at CM so hopefully someone gracious enough will make one.

KingRoot now roots the phone but the bootloader is still locked!
The ZTE max duo LTE (z963vl) can now be rooted via KingRoot but only temporarily. When you reboot the phone you will lose root. You can not make any system changes either still because the bootloader is still locked after root. You can not update BusyBox either. Also when you root the phone with KingRoot it says "This model restricts root authorization". To fix that error just completely close KingRoot and re-open it and it will fix the root authorization error. Dev's or anyone for that matter please help unlock this phone's bootloader please I really want to start getting custom roms and recovery for this phone plus I want to be able to write to /system. I hope this helps as much as possible and I hope the bootloader will become unlocked with all the Devs help. Also I did this with the apk version of KingRoot only because I do not have a PC.
Great news...

Hmmmmm...
So I tried Mardeys method and it did root like he said... installed su superuser and root checker... they worked... busybox wouldn't install... restarted my phone and lost root... so I did it all again then just powered off my phone and started it with power button and volume up... took me to recovery screen with a few options... one being sideload with adb...
I am new at all this so don't know if that helps but would love to get this thing rooted...

Which superuser app are you using? The one by ChainDD just crashes when I run it, and SuperSU keeps saying the binary needs to be updated but fails when I try to do it.

Wall here's what my whole setup was... I ran King root... It said I was rooted but didn't restart my phone... I installed superuser and ran it... This is the one I used... Supersu by chainfire... I installed busy box also but had the same problem about need to update binary files blah blah blah... I then installed a root checker and said I was rooted... Super su was found and busy box... Still no reboot... So I tried installing a few root apps... I installed a app remover for bloat were and it worked... But... When I reboot my phone I lose it all... And can redo it all again but it won't stay on there... Not tech dumb but don't know enough to figure it out... Hopefully that helps you a little as far as what my experience was... Like I said before... If I boot into recovery there is an adb sideboard option so... Just hope it gets figured out soon... Would love to have this rooted with a good room on it.... Starting to think it's a hopeless cause... One more thing to add... While rooted I installed a boot manager to see if it would go into a deeper boot recovery mode at restart but it didn't...
I honestly wish I could swap out Kinguser for something else. SCR ScreenRecorder Pro doesn't seem to realize that there is root, even after granting it permission through Kinguser, which leads me to believe either I'm not actually rooted, or KingUser is garbage.
Does anyone have the firmware for this phone?
No answers? Nothing?
Did you guys try $su reboot disemmcwp in a terminal after rooting? That's always the next step on ZTE phones.
Going to try that now... Can't find a copy of the firmware anywhere however. Worries me in case I need to reflash
I'd like to get this phone rooted too I've only been only to temproot by kingroot

Just tried it myself, but after it's done rebooting, the root's still gone.
Edit: I've noticed that the XDA Labs app seems to think this is a ZTE Blade. Perhaps I might have some luck there?
Hello all! I am currently trying to root an LG Premier LTE
5.1.1 lollipop
Straight talk
Please help me, also thank you very much for your time
I have this phone also and I have searched high and low. At a glance it doesn't look good. I hear people saying things like a locked bootloader and unrootable. I remember the Motorola Atrix 2, and what a nightmare that whole thing was for me and my woman. I'ma give this phone to my daughter. She would love it for a birthday present. If this phone cannot be rooted, and if the bootloader is locked, and nothing comes of this it is useless to me. So if a bootloader is locked does that mean this device is unrootable? Any of you developers thank you for your time in advance, is there such thing as an unrootable Android? If I come up on any information I will post it here on your thread my friend
I'm also looking to root this phone. Hopefully someone will come up with a way. I remember when the Samsung Galaxy J3 came out and it took a while before someone came up with a root method for it. If I find any new information, I will also post it here.
Locked bootloader doesn't mean unrootable. You can root with a rooting app, then before rebooting, use flashify to flash the stock kernel(boot.img)
Ive tried Kingroot and other one click methods. Also tried kingoroot on the pc. All failed. Tried using adb reboot bootloader and it just reboots the phone and adb reboot recovery only gives you the option of factory reset.
Anyone able to root this yet?

Can u please tell us how we can root the LG Premier Lte
Or are u just lying to troll all of us as u can tell it means a great deal to us and lying doesnt make any progression
I have same phone and I have tried everything...........if anyone knows a way post here please and thanks!!
I also have this phone. Would love to root it but none of the above were successful: King Root. Kingo root. Srs root. One Click Root. Stump root. Towelroot. LG one Click. Lol ive tried them all.
Has anyone done anything or had any succuess with this phone? Seems to be a higher priced but lower end phone.... My LG G2 from 4 years ago still blows this phone away. I shouldnt have jumped on this phone when my G4 broke. Should have just spent $20 on a throw away for while in the bind and explored my options.
Just a thought here but....
I have read the LG K10 is the "SAME" phone? and that the "LG Premier LTE" is just the renamed version of the K10 for Straight Talks services.... Can anyone confirm or deny that we could use the Root methods, Recoverys and or flash system images etc. from the K10?
Has any successfully rooted this phone yet?
I was able to temporarily root it with King root but as soon as you restart or turn off the phone, root is gone.
After getting temp root through kingroot we will need a custom recovery. Frash that before the phone reboots. Once it reboots. Go to recovery and flash a supersu zip. The only thing we are missing is a custom recovery.....

i own a sprint slate 8 aqt80 i recently rooted it with king root. and after about a week of it routed everything started freezing up on it. so i came here to see if i could find a solution and a post i had found gave me instructions on the removal of kingroot using an app called super sume. once run it needed another program to aid in the removal and the first time failed and error messages popped every second pretty much so thought my only option was to reboot into recovery and do a full wipe . so i did . attempted to install magisk in place and as i was accepting permisions for magisk in a very quick popup kingroot pops up as im pressing the approval button for magisk. wrll long story short king root made itself a sysyem app and there was no uninsyalling that without root now. ran supersume again followef instructions to a t. and it seemed like it worked after the third phase said king root was uninstalled to restart. so i did . now im stuck in boot loop usb debugging not enabled cannot find recovery for life of me . been to hp website downloaded their update.zip and have tried adb sideload numerous times and aborts somewhere between 40 & 50% evertime . plz can someone help . i dont know where else to look. it would be greatly appreciated
Don't use kingroot. Ever.
