ROOT METHODS

1. Vroot http://vrootdownload.info/

Instructions

1. Download the rooting application. (This app can root many other devices)

2. Install the app. This is a Chinese app so I will guide you.

3. Start VROOT and root now!

4. Now we need to install SuperSU from play store to replace the Chinese root manager called ???? 1.0.4.

5. Go to play store and install SuperSU.

6. Start SuperSU and you will be asked for permission by ???? 1.0.4, choose ??(means allow). (Should be the right side option.)

7. SuperSU will prompt to install SU binary, go ahead with OK and it will display successful.

8. Now, freeze ???? 1.0.4 in titanium backup, just in case you need it again.

Note: If you uninstall straight away from app manager, you need to make sure SuperSU updated the binary.

9. Re-run SuperSU to make sure everything is alright. You will be prompt again to install SU binary, just do what it asked.

10. After that, you are rooted with SuperSU and ???? 1.0.4 will not be there anymore​

RECOVERY

TWRP recovery (SAFE)

Link here

Link Attention with TWRP-Recovery. Data-Partition restore seems to be not right. At the moment please did not use it, because it can delete your data-partition. We have to investigate it further! Other partitions seems to be ok, but its a good Idea if you copy your important data also manually to a other storage (like PC) while you trying things of this thread.[/COLOR]

Philz Touch Recovery (safe)

Link [URL="https://www.dropbox.com/s/cviev1st9d3331z/PhilzTouch_recovery.tar.md5.zip?dl=0"]Here

Infos for Philz recovery:

Philz-Recovery seems to work fine for the Backup/Restore functions and also some zip-installations (be aware that not every zip is compatible with i8200!) .No workin boot image backup

Warning about the recovery:

Nevertheless, it is absolutely recommended to go to recovery ONLY WITH THE THREE BUTTON METHOD !!! To try it with the software/adb/startmenü "Reboot to recovery" will produce at the moment a bootloop, which can produce a "not easy to solve Softbrick". The three-Button-Method is safe!

Installation Guide for recoveries:

Open Odin v3.09

Reboot phone in Download Mode (press and hold Home + Power + Volume Down buttons)

Connect phone and wait until you get a blue sign in Odin

Add the recovery file mda file to AP / PDA
