From my own experience, the only 100% safe method to root is using TWRP and then flashing Magisk zip or a SuperSu zip. Any external Windows app, or apk, that claims to root most phones, will usually come with various kinds of spyware/malware, and I wouldn't suggest using them. Anyway, Framaroot is pretty old, and will most probably fail on this phone.
The last time I used such a solution on an android phone, I ended up reinstalling stock firmware, since the app had installed tons of spyware on the phone.

Hi
I have a Lenovo S960S running 4.4.2, I've discovered it's a fake device and almost nothing is what I thought I have purchased. I mention this because I have almost no support for my mobile.
Initially I could root the phone using VROOT, then I installed Supersu and afterwards delete the chinese Root app. Everything was OK until y have updated my version (from needrom), everything works perfectly and better than before but there's no way to root the phone again. I've tried all kind of alternative root methods without any success. I can't root again.
As far as I know, there's no custom recovery for this device up to date or a ROM version for flash tools...
I'd appreciate a lot your help.

have you still got that rom from needrom?
thanks
So I have a Starmobile Quest which is a local smartphone and I rooted it using a chinese rooting program called iroot, formerly vroot, as suggested by people using the same phone. At first the superuser app(which is a Chinese one) is working fine and I could use apps requiring root access but suddenly, something happened and now it won't give root access to any of the apps. I think, maybe root was somehow removed, and downloaded the root checker app and when I ran it, it told me that I wasn't rooted.
So I unrooted my phone using iroot and it was successful and again rooted it which was again successful. I go and run root checker again and I was surprised to see that I wasn't rooted. From there I repeated the unrooting and rooting process several times and still nothing. What I did notice was that whenever iroot was checking whether my phone was rooted, a pop up would appear on my phone which is from the superuser app asking for permission to give "shell" root access and I would always say yes.
I believe that my phone is actually rooted but the superuser app isn't promting me for root access whenever I use apps that require root, plus there is no log saved except for the "shell" one. I tried changing root access manager app to supersu and when I run it it tells me that it needs to update su binary. I click yes and use the normal method(I don't have cwm) and it tells me it's installing but after awhile I receive an error saying "installation failed. try rebooting.". I reboot my phone and try updating again and it still fails.
I tried everything the internet threw at me, reroot, factory reset, clear data, clear cache, etc and nothing's working. Can someone help me here?
Note: I can't find a stock/custom rom for my device. So flashing roms isn't an option for me.
Bump.
have you tried to flash another version of superuser?

Do you need a custom recovery for that? Because the model of the phone doesn't have a custom recovery yet.
Also, I tried to install supersu from the play store and it didn't work.

Damn it. I guess I'll have to wait till they make a stock rom which I think isn't gonna happen since it's been half a year since the phone is released and there hasn't been any development.
Last question, Is it possible to flash your phone using a computer?

Yes absolutely. Just note that there are no rooting apps on the Play Store. Simply downloading SuperSU or Superuser will NOT root your phone. You need to be rooted first, and if the SuperSU or Superuser app isn't automatically installed, then once you root you can install SuperSU or Superuser to manage apps that require root.
Popular methods of rooting include z4root, framaroot, MTKTools and iroot (or vroot)
Z4root and framaroot are both android applications which you will need to get from their sites or XDA (just run a search). MTKtools and iroot/vroot are computer applications and use ADB. MTKTools can also create a custom recovery for your device, though I don't remember the process too well.
Once you're rooted you will either have your Superuser app installed or you'll have to install it yourself (I personally prefer SuperSU). I also recommend installing busybox as well.
Hope that helps.

So how do I do that?
Hello my buddy so I 've read your thread, there are many apps to do root like root master, framaroot, towel root, towelpieroot. And the way to install super su is doing again the root. And after to install it again.
These apps to do root.

So MTKTools can be found scattered all over XDA, and Framaroot has a dedicated thread (which I cannot link right now as I am on my phone). If memory serves, Jellybean and below had Dev options enabled by default. If not, go to settings -> About Device and tap on the build number several times until your dev options are enabled. Then simply enable USB debugging. When you plug in your device you may need to authenticate your PC to use the Debug bridge. Just hit accept. (I'm sure that you were aware of how to enable ADB but I felt I had to explain anyway)
I assume you have the ADB drivers for your device, but if not, there is a naked USB driver installer floating around XDA (I really would only trust XDA with stuff like this)
With ADB enabled you can use the iroot and MTKTools PC applications. Both are generally straightforward but don't hesitate to ask me if you have a question.
With the APK apps you can get from XDA and abroad, you can root the device somewhat easily.
Framaroot (last time I used it) has four options for rooting (latest version is 1.9.3) you will see all info you need on that thread.
Z4 root I do not recommend. It is somewhat outdated now, though you might want to try it as a last resort
Towelroot is fairly simple as well. Simply download and run the app and you'll either get root or you won't.
My personal recommendations are MTKTools for a pc toolkit (seeing as it can compile a custom recovery too, which it did for my Lenovo S6000)
For apk rooting, I suggest Framaroot. I've never had any problems with it thus far.
I hope that explained it enough but if not, don't hesitate to ask questions. After all, you never learn if you don't ask ^-^
Nevermind guys. I downloaded a bunch of rooting programs and tried them. Root Genius worked and now I have root access. Thanks for replying to this thread.
ReInstall SuperSU and check with Android Terminal Emulator.
Ok dudes just i share this thread, cuz i like to help other dudes that they are juniors or they're beginning .
First of all, Im a complete noob at this. I have rooted a phone about 3 years ago, but I've completely forgot all of that, so please go easy on me.
Anyway, the only reason I want to root is to uninstall unremovable bloatwares. Anything else is minor for me. I wouldnt even want to replace the stock rom.
The reason why Im uncertain about rooting this is because the phone seems to be very obscure. The BLU Life XL (L050U) isnt even the first result on google when you search for it. Some say that Kingroot works fine on this, although they say it bricks the phone when you try to unroot it or replace kingroot with SuperSU and there is no fix to it cause there is no stock rom anywhere.
Is it worth it to root it?
Totally worth it
I got the same device rooted with Kingroot. Also i tried to unroot with the same app and i got success. i dont know about kingroot replaced by SuperSU.
Uninstall Kingroot is not working as well. I recomend you to install another uninstaller root.
I apologize for my english. Is not my first language

Thanks! I'll probably try myself. But what do you mean by uninstall Kingroot is not working? Do you mean that you cant uninstall king root even after unrooting it?

Do I have to unlock the bootloader to root my Life XL?
Hi,
I need some help does anyone know of a custom Rom for this Phone i have or a way to root.
The Phones packed with Bloatware and is killing the performance to a stand still.
Thanks
hi,
I have a lenovo A616 and I made every attempt to improve it.
I saw that on the web there is a modified ROM (downgrade the version than the current one) who claims to be the original rooted, but I trusted ...
I tried all apps available on all markets, including Russians, Koreans and Chinese (kingroot, king root, root master, etc etc), unable to unlock the permissions.
Today I tried using the pc software called iRoot, latest version (iRoot_1.8.7.20375_cid1005_7337ba1e.exe), and incredibly after 10 minutes of agony appeared the verdict: The phone is rooted !!!
This software has also installed other software useless, I quickly uninstalled it.
After the first restart the phone still appeared not rooted, but after opening the superuser apk and updated, again I restarted the phone and it was really rooted.
I hope I have helped you

I have tried to root using iRoot, but with no success.
Is it necessary to unlock the boot-loader on the A616 before using iRoot?
And if so, how do I do that? There seems to be little or no information online about this model.

I got Coolpad Torino S and was wondering if there's any way to get the root access. It's possibly named differently outside of Europe, model is Coolpad E561. Here's link to GSMArena http://www.gsmarena.com/coolpad_torino_s-7898.php
I have already tried KingRoot, but it was without any success.

Hi, i have the same coolpad and i´ve tried all Root tools but no success.
Maybe our smartphone is not public enough, no developers to get root / CWM or ROMs
We have to wait....
What Build did you have? I have updated yesterday to V30.

Yeah, I'm on the same V30 build, got the update a couple days ago. As you're the only other person I've ever seen to own this phone, I got to ask you - do you ever get issues with GPS? For me sometimes the GPS simply dies (can't see/find any satellites) and the only way to fix it is to force stop Play Store (found out by accident). Pretty sure it's a software issue, but not sure if it's only for me or for everyone.
any news about rooting coolpad torino s?
I did try various King Root versions, but none of them worked. Other one-click root apps seemed way too shady to install on the phone. Sadly I think there won't be any way to root this phone considering how unpopular it is.
I even contacted Coolpad EU customer service about root possibilities (I know some Chinese manufacturers allow root access), but after a quick response they completely stopped responding. Quite unprofessional from them, next time I will steer clear from Coolpad brand.

Just a quick update. Today I managed to get a root access with the latest Kingoroot app on a first try.
Initially I just wanted to remove bloatware like Zumei weather, Facebook, Touchpal and unroot because Kingoroot seemed quite shady, for some reason it connected to internet from time to time and phone seemed to work slower than it should.
BUT by sheer luck I managed to replace Kingo SuperUser with SuperSU. Basically what I did:
1. Root with Kingoroot and reboot;
2. Install SuperSU from Play store;
3. Remove Kingo SuperUser (it was installed when rooting with Kingoroot) and reboot;
4. Run SuperSU and update binaries -> normal;
5. It didn't work the first time, it was stuck on "Installing, please wait..." so I rebooted my phone and repeated 4th step;
6. This time it updated just fine, I removed Kingoroot, rebooted and had a root access.

Sorry, I've been away from XDA for some really long time. I used KingOroot not Kingroot. Also I forgot to mention, but you need to enable Developer Options and enable OEM unlocking there.
Though it's been some time since I last tried rooting, maybe Kingroot works now too.
