I bought a Verykool S735 running Android 2.3.6 yesterday. This is my first Android phone and I decided to try using Android with an unexpensive phone before deciding to leave iOS definitely and buying a more complete/expensive Android device.
Well, I am trying to root the phone but every method I have tried so far is useless (tried using Simple One Click, installing stuff like Z4root and so).

Use MAC full time to root? Is it very different than a PC? & Would you recommend it even over a PC if you use a MAC?
I wonder whether there is a way to screen shot android programmatically without rooting the phone?
On Google play, there are numbers of screen shot apps saying "no need to root the phone". But actually, most of them do need to root the phone even they said no need.I can only do it by rooting the phone and pushing my app as system app.
I tried possibly ever option on le google (and some here) but to no avail. Installed every program suggested on the net (unlockRoot, onclickroot, etc etc) as well as the necessary programs (SDK, ADB drivers etc) but it just seems it is impossible. So I turn my plead towards you, after two full days of struggling with this stupid thing.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI used to be a big IOS jailbreaker. I had been doing it for 4 years, before taking up android just a couple months ago. (and i must say, android is MUCH better). Anyway i know that basically during the jailbreaking process, the software uses an exploit on bootup and injects codes during the signature check on every level to make the idevice think that what it is running is legit, unmodified apple software. Hence why tethered jailbreaks need the original program to bypass iboot, because an exploit has not been found deep enough in the system to work in iboot aswell.
So how does rooting compare? Dont be afraid to explain using big words and in detail.
my tablet was orginally a samsung galaxy GT-P5113, however I rooted it and everything and now it's a 4.3 GT-P5110.
I rooted it because everyone said it would be better, however, how is limited access better? Did I do something wrong?
I can't download anything that has to do with samsung and I can't even download the samsung app store.
We have just bought a superpad 8 tablet running ICS 4.0.4 and are having trouble rooting.
z4root is what we have used in the past with older tablets, but it doesn't want to work with this tablet.
Any way to root using adb? I have used this method in the past with a Galaxy Nexus which worked no problem, but this tablet is proving to be stubborn!
What's actually happening is the tablet isn't being recognised by any machine I connect it to. USB debugging is enabled.
To start with it did pop up on my desktop saying install drivers, but now it does not show on any machine, not even in device manager!
ADB shows no devices obviously, but it's strange how it no longer wants to be detected
Is it possible to root without an exploit? I am trying to use fastboot but fastboot devices shows empty. Even the command oem unlock shows "Waiting for device". Heimdahl is not supported for my device i.e. GT-S6312. All the custom ROM installation in the forum shows using a exploit to root the device.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI updated my Galaxy Note GT-N7000 (locked to EE - Orange when I bought it - in the UK) from Android 4.0.4 to 4.1.2 via Kies last week. The update is so awful (terrible battery life and really slow to load basic functions like messaging and contacts) that it has finally tipped me into going for a custom ROM. I haven't done this before, and there is so much information out there that I would just like to make sure I have the right ideas before embarking on the process - I don't want my much-loved Note bricking!
So, my understanding is that there are four steps in the process:
a. Back up data
b. Back up apps and stock ROM
c. Root the phone
d. Install custom ROM
Question 1: Is that right? Question 2: Have I missed anything or added things that are unnecessary? Q3: Have I got the list in the right order?
Next, when it comes to backing up the ROM, there seem to be many programs/apps out there to do the job.
Q4: What are the recommendations for programs to do this based on the criteria of it must be a) intuitive to use, b) reliable, c) put a completely original ROM back if needed, and d) is completely removable itself so that, in the event of it needing to go to be fixed, no-one could tell that I have played with it?
I'm thinking of putting the latest Cyanogenmod ROM on it, because it seems mature, well-documented, and stable.
Q5: Are my thoughts on this accurate? Q6: Are there any ROMs that work better on the GT-N7000 than Cyanogenmod?
So i just rooted my HTC Evo 4G and everything has been deleted. However, once i put my SD card into the computer by itself, all of my folders/files/etc. show up. is there a way to make them appear and keep my phone rooted?
