Yeah a user called Wedee just sent me backup of unrooted phone - It's EMEA region with two SIM Cards.

If you are have a DS phone and it's EMEA region you can try it (and tell me if it works for you). If you are going to Root again please check if the Famaroot method works.

The firmware and flashing method is posted in second post. The rooting method is in first.

Status regarding cyanogenmod

Hello Community,

does anyone know the status regarding below post? Has CAT yet disclosed the material? if not, hot do we make them? Does anyone know a lawyer who would be willing to emphasise to CAT that, according to the GPL license, they are committing copyright infringement by not providing the material?

I own a CAT B15 and I really want to have google off the device. Cyanogenmod seems to be the best strategy on this.

I've also requested source code of other components (such as specific drivers), but they might not be required to provide this, depending on the license of the relative software component.

Just installed firmware update!

Just went from version 1.041 to 1.065 on my stock cat b15 phone. I have read countless threads on rooting this b15 (most outdated) and all I can say is im more than confused. I have never rooted and really only want to do it so I can switch my external sd and internal storage.

I have a few questions for you rooting pros as I CANNOT afford to brick this phone.

Can I use an easy program like root master to root in a few easy steps?

or do I have to follow these confusing mistranslated steps and use sp flash?

How can I make a copy of this stock phones rom to come back to when I screw it up (as im sure I will)?

Would anyone be interested in me posting that file to help with the people bricking?

I have the EMEA_SS. 1.065.00

Hi all. I asked a few years back about rooting my single-sim Cat B15 phone. I was successful and it was step-by step thanks to mexusbg posting the instructions here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2430904

That phone was a EAME_SS.1.020.02 version and the modified image files provided worked perfectly for it. Something 'unfortuate' :eek: happened to that phone so I acquired a new one.

My new phone is a US_SS.1.021.03 version. I have tried to root it using the currently available images, which did not work.

Using the dual-sim image causes the phone to go into an endless loop of rebooting.

Using the EAME_SS.1.020.02 version causes the phone to power off by its self.

Going back to the original (which I backed up) makes the phone work again, but it's not rooted.

Is there available a patched ROM which will allow rooting the US_SS.1.020.02 version? I would be grateful for any info!

The phones appear identical at first look. Here is the info I have. If I can provide any further info, please ask!

I have thia same phone and so i use Kingo Root which is really simple. Google "Kingo Root" and click on the official website ( this all can be done on your phone, and happens to work for very many phones) and select the option "Android". A .apk file will then be downloaded (an android app) which you will install then run. You may be prompted to go into settings/privacy and enable "Unknown Sources" and then install. After installation just open the application and select "Root" (or whatever the application says, honestly i have forgot). It will then show some dialog and a percentage meter, and within minutes, you will have root access and kingo superuser (like supersu and superuser).
