How_To_Root_The_Samsung Galaxy Xcover4ltexx SM G390F - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
I would appreciate a little help please?
I have a Samsung Galaxy Xcover4ltexx SM G390F
Bootloader Version: G390FXXU2ARA4
PDA Version: G390FXXU2ARA4
CSC Version G390FXXU2ARA4
BaseBand Version: G390FXXU2ARA1
Android Version 7.0 / SDK 24 (Nougat)
Build date Fri, 26 Jan 2018
I am trying to root this phone.
On the phone Settings in the developer options I have
Turned on OEM unlock
USB debugging is ON
I went with what I thought would have been the quickest and easiest option
And ran KingRoot on the PC. This failed me at 98%
I retried several times to no avail.
I then tried other quick root programs. None would root the phone.
I downloaded Odin3_v3.10.6_plus_CF_Auto_Root.
CF-Auto-Root-xcover4lte-xcover4ltexx-smg390f.tar.md5
I followed the instructions step by step and this failed to root my phone
I tried using all the ODIN PROGRAMS up to Odin3_v3.13.1.
All I have manage to do is wipe my phone and put it back to Factory default settings
3 times. I am sick of rebuilding my phone with all my apps and data.
Can anyone give me a step by step guide in how to root this phone successfully.
Thanks, in anticipation of some good advice.
Flourgrader.

Thanks

Try Magisk root solution instead !

Hello,
Thought I might help for reference.
If you can find:
CF-Auto-Root-xcover4lte-xcover4ltexx-smg390f.zip
You may need to downgrade to Android 7.0, as some incompatabilities have been reported.
Bye!

[Q] Attempting to root HTC One M8 | Fedora 22

Hey Guys hope someone can help me,
I was following this guide "How to Unlock + Recovery + Root the HTC One M8" from youtube and managed to get into the bootloader atleast thats what I think it is and followed the guide into the fastboot menu, then I had to install the htc file fastboot, well after installing them "android-tools" which fastboot asked for, I went and opened a terminal and after the fastboot oem get_identifier_token:
[[email protected] ~]$ fastboot oem get_identifier_token
< waiting for device >
...
Just gonna normally reboot the device to give you the information from what I already did in settings and some OS info, as for settings its quick: I turned USB debugging: ON, then I made sure I had developer access on the phone I also had to make sure fastboot setting was disabled.
Then for OS info:
Android version:
5.0.1
HTC Sense-version:
6.0
Software number:
4.16.401.10
HTC SDK API-niveau:
Unknown
Kernel version:
3.4.0-g6af28ec
[email protected] #1
SMP PREEMPT
Smallband version: [This is a long one so I am gonna include the first 3 numbers]
1.25 [req for the rest if you think you need it]
Build number:
4.16.401.10 CL448934
So the main problem is what have I missed to do, that my device cant successfully connect to the Android SDK-tools, and I now remember I had the same problem on Windows 7 months ago on my first attempt.
Thanks for any support.
And plz if you point me to a guide also point me to the step that might help me in this process.

[Q] Root/CWM/TWRP - Klipad V355 (7.0, MT6737)

I have in my research not found any way to root this phone using any One Click Root type of thing, I am currently stuck because of my lack of knowledge using MTK Droid Tools (I can see the "root" button when I plug in the device, I know it reads "temporary root" but it is of any use since I can't even make a proper scatter file? (I have the "unknown rom" error))
I need someone to brighten me up on the subject!
Also does installing a custom recovery requires me to unlock my bootloader?
EDIT: I tried the root button and after failing to get temporary root MTK Droid Tools says that I should be able to root the phone using CWM
EDIT2: So I read a bit this evening and I now know that MT67xx chips can't get their scatter file dumped by MTK Droid, so now I am currently looking for a way to get that scatter file...
I am clueless as of now, I really need someone to help me!
I just unlocked my bootloader, I also discovered that in the stock recovery there was an option called "mount /system", what does it do?
I have been looking for more than 8 hours today and I'm kind of feeling hopeless...
So, for anyone who might get any info out of it here are the info of the device straight out of MTK Droid:
Hardware : MT6737
Model : KLIPAD_V355
Build number : Y376C12.DM.HN.V355.KLIPAD.V2.EU.CTS.8+1.7.0.V01.01.2017.07.22
Build date UTC : 20170722-122206
Android v : 7.0
Baseband v: MOLY.LR9.W1444.MD.LWTG.MP.V110.5.P3, 2017/06/06 15:58
Kernel v : 3.18.35 ([email protected]) (gcc version 4.8 (GCC) ) #2 SMP Sat Jul 22 20:23:02 CST 2017
If there's no stock ROM you're gonna need to make your own.
Get a scatter from another device with same chip platform, run 'cat /proc/partitions' and compare.
Dump/read back recovery [and ideally full ROM]
Modify recovery [create twrp]
Flash twrp
Unlocking boorloader might be needed for the above - OEM unlock in dev settings and fastboot

I've recently purchased an unlocked Samsung Galaxy A10e(SM-A102W) from Walmart and had it set up with Lucky Mobile, I purchased this device with intentions to root/modify after a quick Google search before I took off. I had asked the salesperson who had sold me the phone if it could be done, he told me yes and so far I've spent the last 5 days fixated on trying to get this phone rooted.​
So far I've tried,
Enabling Developer Options
Enabling OEM Unlock | No option in Developer tools even after removing Google/Samsung accounts, Auto Updates > Off, playing with date/time settings, Auto Updates > On and re-flashing stock firmware
Enabling USB Debugging
Downloading stock firmware with frija and SamFirm *DEPRECATED applications.
Extracting AP file from stock firmware, copying to Internal Storage on Galaxy A10e Device
Downloading and installing MagiskManager.apk(7.5.1)
Patching AP file from stock firmware with Magisk Manager app on Galaxy A10e Device
(I have tried multiple patched AP files, from ones containing just /Meta-data/, boot.img, recovery.img and vbmeta.img to ones containing every .img)
Copying Patched AP file(magisk_patched.tar) from Internal Storage onto PC
Booting into stock recovery, Download/Bootloader mode | Is Bootloader already unlocked?
Flashing Patched AP file with Odin3B PatcheD/ModdeD v3.14.1 | Options set are "F. Reset Time", although I've tried "DeviceInfo", "Flash Lock", and "Decompress Data"
(I've heard with this model not to use "Auto Reboot"; using "Nand Erase" or "Re-Partition" will most likely damage your device!)
Galaxy A10e device returns message "SECURE CHECK FAIL : (BOOT)", "SECURE CHECK FAIL : (VBMETA)" and depending on the nature of the Patched AP file I used, I may or may not have to re-flash the stock firmware
In short, I'd really like to figure out if I can and/or how to root this device as of now.
Is there a reason my OEM unlock option isn't showing up in the developer tools?
Is going through the stock recovery(Pwr + Vol. UP, release Pwr on logo) and selecting Bootloader, proceeding to go into Download mode, mean my Bootloader is unlocked?

I also need to unblock the bootloader of this Samsung A10E to try to root.
I have tried to enable oem unlock with some manuals but this model has resisted.
Any luck?
Well, i also need help on that. I've successfully modded phones in the past, but i can't seem to find the hang of that particular model.
Any help appreciated. Thanks !

Stuck trying to root Galaxy A7 2016 (A710F)

I write this post in the last hope of getting help from the community. I recently inherited an old Galaxy A7 2016 (A710F) android 6 version with A700FXXU2BPK1 base band version. The phone belonged to my mom, so I didn't think about it and did a system reset and deleted everything. Now I have a "100%" clean phone. The fact is that I would like to change the ROM with a lineage os. I can't proceed because when I unlock the developer options and activate the USB debugging according to the official guide, the "OEM unlock" item does not appear. This item is essential to flash the bootloader and have root permissions. I also tried to enter both my gmail and samsung account, but this option does not appear. I checked and in my galaxy S9 plus it is present. Do you have any suggestions on how to proceed, bring up the entry or root? A link with a guide is also fine. I have made many attempts and no guide seems to work, without that checkbox I do not proceed. I also tried the "trick" of postponing the date and time but it didn't work. then I can't install TWRP and proceed. As a last attempt I tried with odin but obviously I can't flash the bootloader because that box is not active. I trust in you.
Cheers

Galaxy A10 oem unlock does not appear.

Hello, guys, I have a galaxy A10 in which it does not appear oem unlock, I've tried all the tutorials on the internet but none of them work, I have this device since the launch in Brazil, at the time it was android 9, and this oem unlock option always appeared, but as at the time it didn't have a custom rom yet (or I haven't found any) I left it disabled, now in 2021 I saw several custom rom for my device, but after upgrading to android 10, I was no longer able to have the option of oem unlock, I will pass the current configuration of my device.

is there any way to still be able to root and unlock the bootloader?
I don't care if I have to install rom from other countries, I just want to be able to root and install custom roms.
About the tutorials I saw on the internet, they were just the most common ones like delaying the date and looking for an update, I saw a tutorial in which the person left and entered the developer settings until it appears, I already did a hard reset and tried to make oem unlock appear with all the tutorials.

I forgot to mention, when I go into download mode, instead of being in the prenormal, mine is in normal.
