Kyerocera didn't build each & every android version for our device since its time consuming to just build 1 version & constantly update that version. The hydro wave ROM was built only on 5.1 & NOT 5.0.x & you cant downgrade from the stock recovery since stock recoveries are a joke & our bootloader is forever locked... Even the OEM Unlocked does nothing.

(even if it glitches & we could do it kyerocera programmed our device to NEVER boot into the bootloader directly, BUT only when to start the system....of course this is just my theory based off some facts.)

In other words you guys should give up now since Kyocera doesn't care about its consumers & its developers!

I am looking at the ATT variant of this phone, and I want root.

Hey all, I'm gonna start here because I've noticed these two phones (Kyocera Hydro Air C6745) and the C6740N have very similar specs. It's pretty much the same phone, except the Air version is obviously ATT, and I've noticed it has 1080P video recording instead of the 720P. I don't care much about the resolution, but i'm wondering that if somebody finds a method, it would work on the Air also. I want to contribute, so if I get the phone and find a method, I'd also like to help others find ways to root their phones. If you need any info on the phone, just look up the Kyocera Hydro Air.

I don't know if it is legit, but I would be willing to try if Google Chrome didn't block it. Yes, I got to the download, but because Chrome is so toxic towards it, I do not want to try it on my daily driver without any recovery tools.

No, it's not legit. SRS Root always believes it roots the phone even though there is no trace of a successful root. It uploads your results to their server onto their Twitter.

Greenify works without root. It uses some of the Accessibility functions to close apps that rob you for your RAM and CPU.

It's not ideal, but there were times before I downloaded it that my phone was a screaming brick, while waiting on it to finish whatever the hell it was doing in the background to answer a call. Give it a whirl until we can root and get rid of the bloat.

Hey all, first time poster.

Any validity to this one?

Edit: Since I'm a new poster, it won't let me post the URL, but it's at the website howto-rootphone dot com and it claims Kingoroot now works. It was posted on September 1 of this year.

Just for the record, I want to thank all of you for doing the hard work to get our phone rooted. The bloatware has been driving me crazy since I bought it. I've been following this thread since its beginning, but since I'm a complete root newbie, I had nothing to contribute. I probably still don't but figured I should ask about the above url on the outside chance, you know?

I'll continue following this thread with my fingers crossed.

Again, thanks for doing the hard work so we don't have to tear our hair out continuing to put up with the carrier-installed industrial-grade stupid.

Hey everyone if you want to remove bloatware kingroot 4.6.0 is working fine for me if it doesn't root the first time or you get the orange not rooted deal try rebooting or uninstall and reinstall once they give you temp root take advantage of it seems the more you use it the easier it is to get temp root again,its something for now till we can get perm root
[General Questions and Answers] TewSlo:
I feel as if we successfully obtain the limited temp root we should focus on using the numerous Firmware extraction methods in the forums to create a rooted Rom to be installed if TWRP is compatible. I do believe if you upload your backup images to the TWRP site they will use a Linux Remote PC to autobuild a custom backup to be used. I have yet to obtain this temp root, but I see this as a tangible way.

[General Questions and Answers] billwelchel:
de-bloat the C6740N with Kingroot as utility, even after root fails.

I have been using this phone for a bit and dealing with the MetroPCS bloatware. I finally decided to try to get rid of it myself and have had some success. with Kingroot:

1.) open the utility and have it attempt root. This will fail.

2.) Using the back arrow, exit the utility to your app drawer (or wherever you launched it from.

3.) Immediately, return to app.

You'll see that while it says it could not root the phone. It does not stop me from accessing the "uninstall tool" or the "auto-start" utilities and while I did not expect it to work. They BOTH do what they would do on a rooted phone.

FYI - This IS on android 5.1 Build LMY470. I also made sure developer options were ON with USB Debugging and Mock Locations both turned ON (I don't see how this could make a difference but just in case.)

[General Questions and Answers] Terrorclaw:
Thanks... I have also been able to get temp root using this method, even verified with check root, so I can confirm that what you say is correct...... for anyone having problems, restart your phone after every failed attempt and you WILL eventually get root. This temp root, as far as I can tell lasts about 10 minutes... so you have a 10 minute or so window to do whatever ya need to do.

What I have tried to do so far is ADB in with Linux and change my install location to the SD card with "su pm set-install-location 2", this change successfully goes through, and even after rebooting the phone I can verify that install location has been changed using "pm get-install-location", it verifies that location is now "2(external)", however, apps are still installing to the internal storage :/ I haven't messed with android much since Jellybean, and I'm not sure I'd be willing to try this, since there would be some risk of bootlooping the phone and no chance of fixing it without a recovery option... but the next step might be to try and manually copy over a working SU while connected via ADB to try and gain permanent root? Just a thought?

[General Questions and Answers] Terrorclaw:
Baby steps man.... we need someone a little crazy and with just enough knowledge of android to screw things up for further testing xD

[General Questions and Answers] billwelchel:
Uninstall access and root attempts

I saw the earlier postings re temp root but that does not appear to be what I have been getting. I have not attempted the root utility since yesterday and i still have access to uninstall and / or block autoruns.

also, I have never gotten a message telling me root was successful just failures.

Has anyone tried using another root exploit (towel-root, etc) while the kingroot temp root held?

Finally, as I understand it, the biggest issue with getting perm root is getting past the RO starus of the /system volume, right. Since I have been able to uninstall system apps, doesn't this indicate that I have achieved this?

Bricked Hydro Wave

Be careful when attempting to root. I just bricked my hydro phone. So I decided to do drop tests with it from second floor balcony at least a 20 foot drop. First time it landed on back of phone and barely scratched it. Second time it landed on power button and bent the frame in but amazingly it was still working sort of, was still bricked in infinite boot cycle so then I just smashed it and snapped it in half. Gotta say was really impressed with the amount of strength it took to break.

Tools

I was using kingoroot and kingroot. Kingoroot appeared to give me temporary root and I was able to delete bloatware apps, but it wouldn't let me change the install location so I could install apps to my external sd, which was my point for root in the first place. Everything seemed fine but I couldn't get temp root with kingoroot and I kept trying both apps, then I restarted my phone and got stuck in a infinite boot cycle. I think the lesson from this is don't try to root more than once after failing without restarting your phone. Or maybe it was the metropcs apps I deleted, not sure lol. About to root my new LG Optimus pro and load a custom rom, like carbon or Resurrection. I didn't really care about my kyocera because the screen was already smashed.

[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] sam_a200:
I bought the Tegra note 7 (XOLO India) yesterday and as soon as I switched it on I got the OTA update notification and updated it successfully to Android 5.1. From the time I booted into the new version I have been plagued by touchscreen issues, the tablet responds to touch for a while and then would stop responding but will respond to stylus and switching off the screen and switching it back on would make touch responsive for a few seconds and then again it becomes irresponsive and occasionally it doesn't respond to stylus as well, did a factory reset, rebooted it number of times and finally came across this forum.

Is this a faulty device or is there any hope for me, I bought this tablet to buy games and I can't play any of them as suddenly the touchscreen would go crazy and my character would die :crying:

As another user posted that it happens in his/her device with the flip cover, I don't have the flip cover at all.

Would rooting help, I was thinking of rooting the device and downgrading it, as there was a fix for touchscreen error posted for Android 4.4.2 but after I read that rooting voids warranty I decided to check with you guys before I did anything crazy.

Thank you in advance,
[Nvidia Tegra Note 7] sam_a200:
Solved?

To anyone who is facing the same problem and those who are interested, I followed the suggestions from this thread and calibrated my battery and the issue seemed to have completely gone. I put the tablet for charging once it was nearing 10% overnight and the next day unplugged it and started using it and the full ady even after heavy usage the problem never showed up, the screen is 100% touch responsive and the entire experience was 'buttery' smooth. There's one more thing that I did, I installed activitylauncher and set max performance in Nvcontrolpanel.

Run this RUU on your PC to return to stock. This is 4.19.707.2 Lollipop firmware (not KitKat like you asked for), but it will definately make you 100% stock. It will also wipe your phone, so backup anything that is important to you.

Click the link above on your PC (not your phone). After the download is done, hook your phone up to your PC and double click on the download. Follow the prompts. You are now stock.

If you are S-On you will need to relock your bootloader first before doing this. In fastboot: fastboot oem lock

You're wording is a a bit confusing, so I'm not quite sure what you're trying to say. But it seems like you are trying to go into recovery to wipe cache? That is

what I instructed to do. I said to erase cache with fastboot.

But the RUU recommended by xunholyx is probably the best/easiest way to go.

I know you can use the N7 as a second monitor or even a PC itself. I wanted to ask a question slightly more out there.

Is / would it be possible to output system (PC) stats to display on the N7? I have a Logitec G15 v1 keyboard that has the LCD screen on it that runs little apps on it. My N7 can sit right up over the top of it and act as a bigger and better screen. I would like to know if it was doable to run an apk to display those programs, or something like it pulling info from the PC along with maybe some other useful PC info.
