I have used Wugfresh's NRT with my previous Nexus devices with stellar results and I downloaded ADB to try your guys method with a Z831 however, I need ti know if this guide is Android version specific? I recently went from 5.1.1 to 7.1.1 in like 3 OTA AT&T updates, so this device is running Nougat. Also, is PIE something new to 7.0 ? I read somewhere this affects the root process. Why do they have "Unlock bootloader" option in Dev settings ? Can I just run an ADB command to enable Write permission to delete 40-50 #/System/App .apk's?

Yo OP, I genuinely appreciate you sharing this. I found that everything has worked perfectly. I managed to get perm root and I just tried to install SU, gonna see if it worked. Thanks bro

How to install adb and Zte drivers on your computer? please reply
[Android General] Tim Elliott:
The ZTE drivers should be on your phone. One of the mount options, when you plug in your phone is to install drivers.
[Android General] fddm:
This method really works. You can copy your recovery back after, you do not loose root. You are also able to re-root and make it permanent again after a factory reset, it is just takes many more exploit attempts. You can also install Xposed through Xposed Installer.

Anybody bought and tried Super-Sume Pro with this phone yet?

Is the root method working with ZTE Maven 3?

Anyone tried this on ZTE Maven 3? Got 2 from Bestbuy, would like to have them rooted.

Thanks.
[Android General] MotoJunkie01:
I recently dissected the partition index and firmware structure of the ZTE Maven 3, in hopes of discovering a viable root exploit. Because it ships with stock Android Nougat, systemless root via patched boot image would be preferable. But, because the bootloader does not appear to be unlockable by any known method or exploit, systemless root is not currently an option. Accordingly, I focused on the less desirable method of system-mode rooting, which injects the SU daemon and corresponding root binaries to the Android OS by way of the /system partition directly. Again, an obstacle ensued: the stock kernel of the ZTE Maven 3 is secured by AVB 2.0/dm-verity (device mapping), which checks the /system partition for any modifications whatsoever prior to allowing the OS to boot. So, if /system is modified in any way, or so much as mounted r/w, a perpetual boot loop will commence via dm-verity.

So, in short, due to the locked bootloader state and verified boot/device mapping, safely & effectively rooting the stock Android Nougat OS of the ZTE Maven 3 doesn't presently appear to be feasible.

Note: I realize that the OP designated this as a ZTE Maven 2 thread, and I apologize to the OP if I'm off topic. I only addressed the Maven 3 because of the number of questions in the thread.

Recovery lost

Hello, I screwed something up during the replacement of the recovery. Now when I try to do a factory reset the Screen just goes black. It Looks like my phone doesnt have a valid file from which it should load the recovery. Is there anyway to get this fixed? Thank you so much in advance!

PS: I already rooted my phone last year for the first time with this method and ist was a charm! So thanks to everyone who helped to come with this!
[Android General] DragonFire1024:
Try using the method in the OP to re add recovery. Though you shouldn't have to do so. Either way the method in the OP does work.
[Android General] selteneerden:
Sorry I didn' t write back earlier. I was quite busy at work. I finally found the time to try again and I didnt success. So I try to explain my case in Detail. I did the method in the OP and at first everything looked fine. Then after deleting bloatware and a few days of usage I noticed my phone getting super slow after a few hours of usage. I always had to reboot my phone in like every 1-2 hours. So I wanted to do a factory reset which didn't work. That was the time that I posted my question here.

Now yesterday I tryed to find out some more. First I did the whole OP method again - no luck. since I already have root. Than I tryed to do what madvane20 proposed in another post on this Forum "cd /dev/block/platform/soc.0/7824900.sdhci/by-name/

Then do dd of=recovery if=/sdcard/recovery.img to restore stick recovery add that to the guide " but that didnt do the trick.

So here is what works:

I can boot normally

I have root

I can go into adb shell su

what doesnt work is:

phone gets super slow and laggy after 1-2 hours

factory reset

hard-reset / FTM (volume up + power)

recovery --wipe_data (error message: recovery not found)

'am broadcast -a android.intent.action.MASTER_CLEAR' (nothing happens)

Anyone has any idea how to fix this?

Root busy box no root

I have the ZTE z831 maven 2 I got root with King root and installed busy box bit reset my phone lost root now when I try to root says permission denied by busy box root I have no PC is there a way I can install SuperSU or a superuser to root can I change busy box answer to permission or uninstall I tried terminal emulator but says are you root? Permission denied idk what to do I just want root but don't know how with busybox as root again I have no PC or access to a PC can anyone help?
[Android General] DragonFire1024:
I have not found a way to rid kingroot of the device. So as far as i know, you cant install SuperSu. However, i think you can download the kingroot app and reroot. Install the app, but before opening it, go to settings, security, device administrators and make it an administrator. Then open the app and reroot. You have to keep it as an administrator though or the system will fight it and you'll have to start again.
[Android General] richaardvark:
Thank you so very much for posting this detailed guide! I am very appreciative!! I ran into a problem however and could really use some help... ??

I followed the instructions closely and all was going well! But then I tried to install SuperSU into the system and the phone rebooted and was asking me for a PIN number. However, there is no keyboard on the screen at all so it is not possible to enter the PIN number. I researched here on XDA and across the internet about this issue and many people who had this problem were able to enter the PIN number by using an OTG USB cable and a USB keyboard. Hoping this would work for me, I quickly ordered/had rushed overnight a USB keyboard and OTG cable, but nothing happens when it is plugged into the phone. I read a little more and think perhaps this "base model" device is not OTG compatible. :-'(

So now, I cannot boot nor can I enter recovery mode. When I boot, I get the screen asking for a PIN. The hardware key-press combination to enter recovery mode does nothing. I can however hold some keys and the phone will enter "Field Test Mode" but I don't think this helps me at all.

Being cautious and following the directions above closely, I did save a copy of my recovery, per step 11 above, but have no way to enter this without Recovery Mode. I'm really hoping I haven't bricked this device and there is some hope to fix the phone, but I'm thinking I may be out of luck... :crying: I in no way blame you or anyone and understand that these things can just happen sometimes.

I realize this is an older thread, but if someone out there is still around or someone has some guidance to help me with this phone, I would be eternally grateful and appreciative for your help!!! ????? ?

I promise I followed everything super closely. The only thing I did differently, I used this modded of KingRoot, which is a version that has all the advertisements and nasty bloatware/malware removed. Everything was going well. Before I tried to follow the additional steps to switch to SuperSU, with KingRoot installed, the phone did actually reboot two times. But surprisingly, I still had root after the phone rebooted each time. It wasn't until I tried to install SuperSU into the system that the phone rebooted and now is asking for the PIN number, but there is no on-screen keyboard :( This phone is basically brand new. I know it's a low-end device, but I really need the phone and would hate to throw away a practically new device :(

Thank you to anyone out there who is able to offer guidance/help me with this! ✔?❤

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Critical Detox:
I've skimmed through your post, And i have to inform you that Buying/Selling/Trading is prohibited within XDA in any forum or PM. The designated site for this such thing is www.swappa.com this is a XDA approved site and you should use it instead.

With that out of the way, The odds of getting a factory sealed Note 5 are pretty slim at this point in it's life cycle, And if you did find one, As per Samsung's request last year they forced all corresponding package disablers to exclude their update packages.

Whether or not the DEVS have restored them is unknown to me but this is the knowledge I know last about this. I'm sorry I could be of more help, hopefully you find what you seek. Good luck.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] FerroChrome99:
Well you did help some. I'm sorry for the faux pas. I had no idea about the buying selling, I don't recall reading that. As for package disablers you very well could've figured out a random mystery. My PDP app has crashed 16 times this week. As I went through adjusting settings and getting all the new crap off my phone from update. Not including the previous few weeks. I was in an Acute physical therapy rehab facility due to my back. For 6 weeks including May. Wasn't home until last week of June. The facilities Wi-Fi was hinky so I don't believe the update was pushed through until I moved in the last week of June. Then it was picking up and putting things down I shouldn't hahah leaving me no impetus to even look at my phone in pain.

Anyhow, what vexes me most is the keyboard. I downloaded Gboard. Looked at the app permissions it needed to run. Then ran screaming away to uninstall. It's most likely a mixture of a bad mix of legacy software coupled with newer OS wreaking havoc. I've never rooted a phone before.. However, it looks like I'm headed that way.

The unopened in box Note 5 is a pipe dream. I'm putting all my faith in a woman's scorn, or a buy one get one deal where someone thought the phone was too large and boxed it up. All you can do is try hahah. I looked on Swappa , Amazon, Ebay, the usual suspects. They have "new" phones. Their definition is the display model at your local corporate wireless store. Always plugged in, and played with by thousands of ppl. I'd be buying a phone in worse condition than I have hahah.

I wouldn't have updated. But AT&T or Android only allows you 3 denials before it auto loads the next time it's on Wi-Fi and sleeping. Lesson learned. Next phone, assuming package disablers still function or allowed. I'll switch off the update software. Once I get a version I'm accustomed to. I really hate the bland nature of Nougat.

Phones getting sent to TX to Samsung's approved fix it hub For a new battery. Maybe that will help. Afterwords I'll have the ability to use a theme with a lil more color that doesn't eat battery.

I've fixed battery issue to some degree, don't know what I did in PDP, and basically turned off all background data for apps as usual besides email accounts. I'm back up to 4-5 close to 6 hours SOT constant use. Before update it was constant 7. A year ago I could go all day on screen, 10 plus hours.

I'm being super lazy and all you pros in here probably deciphered real rumours from fake on the Note8. What's it looking like?

Also, I appreciate you not biting my head off when I broke forum rules. It's a surprise to some degree. Sadly it shouldn't be hahah. Thanks for everything

Hey everybody,

I use cm11:

if a switch the phone app (not dialer! (truephone)) in the taskbar during a call to another app, (lets say telegram to check something..) and get back to the phone app its not possible. its seems the phone app is just invisible, cause the call is still running and its possible to open the dialer to end the call. but the proximity sensor is only working in the phone app.. is there a way to make the phone app visible again?

Or is there maybe a solution to change the aosp stock phone app to another one?

thanks everybody!

Well you need to unlock your bootloader and flash TWRP first. Then you need to root with SuperSu and create a nandriod backup. Then follow the steps on flashing Paranoid Andriod. Use Wug Fresh Nexus root toolkit is the easiest. You need go be on the latest bootloader version for this to work.

Hi all, looked everywhere -- results seem to only display "how to root android."

My question is a bit different:

Is there a resource anyone can direct me to that shines some insight onto how to create a root for an android?

Nobody has come out with a root method for the LG Stylo 3 Plus yet, and Im wondering if it's worth going ahead and trying to make my own.

Similarly, is there a good resource that explains how to design your own ROM? Im a relative beginner at this, and I'd like to root my phone and then perhaps design some sort of OS for it in my spare time that I could maybe share with the community if it gets to that. Is this a good resource?

I'll second that question, I'm trying to develop a root for the LG G5 H820 but I don't know exactly where to start. I figure it requires adb which is pretty much a given but that's about all I know. My second question would be that even if I were to find an exploit, how do I utilize it to give the user root? Thanks.

Hi, my HTC M9, which is not rooted, is soft bricked in a reboot loop. If I try to enter recovery mode then it going into a loop of vibrating and showing a black screen with silver letters saying "HTC." If I try to boot to download mode it says, "Failed to boot to download mode." If I reboot then it enters a reboot loop. Is there a way for me to fix this without having to send it to HTC and paying around $200? Also would there be a way for me to get anything off of the internal storage?

[Asus ZenWatch 3] TabGuy:
Mostly sites like this are where people come for solutions or complaints. But there's one thing that is working 100% better in v2.0 of Android Wear.

When I'm driving I often use my watch to say, "Play some music" to get a random mix of music on my phone that plays through my car stereo. In AW 1.5 it was successful about 50% of the time. The watch responded and said it was going to do what I asked it to do by showing the checkmark but half the time the music never changed.

I can happily report that it works absolutely perfectly and 100% of the time since 2.0. And it's not like I've only tried it a handful of times, I might have to say, "Play some music," a half dozen times until I get the right mix of songs for my liking. And it'll change the mix each and every single time I ask it.
