[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Thor™:
This is a safer & tested guide to root any Lava Iris X1 Broadcom CPU phones :cyclops:

I have rooted at least 4 Lava Iris X1 Broadcom CPU phones.

These are one click root methods, of course! for the lazy people :p

Those who have updated their ROM, backup your contacts, pictures, videos and do a "factory data reset".

Battery should be at least 40%.

Factory data reset is recommended by Lava,

It resolves issues after update (such as call log history empty).

ROOTING VOIDS WARRANTY! I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR DEVICE.​

Tested firmware versions:​

> S209

> S404

> S505

> S603​

ROOT ACCESS BY KINGROOT ANDROID APP

1. Download latest KingRoot app from official website http://www.kingroot.net

install on your phone. Go to developer options and turn on USB Debugging

2. Connect your phone to internet. Close all unnecessary apps & open KingRoot app.

3. Now, try root strategy & tap on rooting. Remember! your phone must be connected to internet.

Do not minimize kingroot or turn off your screen.

4. Wait like good boy ;) do not panic if your phone restarts before 100%.

Try rooting once again if it fails on very first attempt.

5. If rooting fails then reboot your device and try rooting again.

Sometimes it takes few more attempts to root your device.

6. Wait until it reaches 100%. If rooting is unsuccessful then try rooting via KingRoot PC tool.

​

ROOT VIA KINGROOT WINDOWS TOOL

1. Windows 7 is recommended. download Kingroot setup for Windows and install it.

http://www.kingroot.net

USB Debugging must be enabled on your phone & your PC must be connected to internet.

2. Turn your phone on & connect via USB cable & do nothing. Open Kingroot on PC & start rooting.

3. It will take 10 to 15 minutes to root your device. Do not touch or shake your USB cable or phone.

Phone may restart many times, no need to worry about it. Wait till it shows 100%.

4. If rooting is unsuccessful! reboot your phone & start from beginning.

No feat is achieved on very first attempt :silly:

5. After successful rooting see your phone, you will find a Kingroot app is installed on your phone,

open that app and see the result If not rooted! try rooting with that app.

If both the above method fails then try the following rooting method.

​

ROOT BY COMBINED ATTACK OF KINGROOT & IROOT WINDOWS TOOL

1. Some updated Iris X1 ROMs do not root easily, we gonna use Kingroot & iRoot Windows tools combinely

to root those ROMs. Recently I have discovered this root method while rooting S603 firmware.

Download & install iRoot for PC from official http://www.iroot.com/.

2. Both iRoot & Kingroot Windows tool must be installed on your PC. Internet should be connected to your PC.

Turn on your phone, enable USB debugging & connect to PC via USB cable.

3. Open iRoot on PC. Your phone will be shown on iRoot. Now, start rooting.

It may take few minutes, you have to wait. After successful rooting,

open Kingroot android app on your phone try to root.

4. If failed! then open Kingroot PC tool on Windows & try rooting.

It will be successful for sure :good: Now open Kingroot app on android & enjoy!
