[Q] How to root and flash

I know these threads of newbies can be annoying, since it's been posted a million times, but please hear me out.
First I just tried to root my device but I don't think it worked, since I checked with root checker and it says my device isn't rooted. I used this method:
Download
DooMLoRD's Easy Rooting Toolkit [v2.0](zergRush Exploit)
You made need:
Xperia Play [Neo Arc] AcroIS11 Acro S0-02C USB Drivers

(2) Enable "USB DEBUGGING" from (Menu\Settings\Applications\Development).
(3) Enable "UNKNOWN SOURCES" from (Menu\Settings\Applications).
(4) [OPTIONAL] Increase screen timeout to 10 minutes.
(5) Connect USB cable to PHONE and then connect to PC.
Instructions
(1) Download the attached file, extract it using Winzip.
(2) Proceed to the folder where you extracted the contents then execute "RUNME.bat"

It said it was rooted successfully but my rootchecker didn't agree
Is there another "easy" method to root my Xperia R800at play?
---------------------------------------------------
And for the Custom Rom... I have been reading a lot on this forum, but I'm still a bit confused so please bare with me.
First - I've read that the ICS and JB don't really do justice when it comes to the gaming, and that Gingerbread is the best software for when it comes for the full xperia play experience?
Second - I would like a Gingerbread custom rom that's very very stable and smooth. My Wifi connection is a bit unstable so I'm hoping that a custom rom might fix that.
Third - Can someone provide me with a download link for the best Gingerbread custom rom, and the easiest method to put the rom on my device?
I also find that some games like Grand theft auto and Fifa are really laggy at times and after gameplay my phone really slows down, doesn't matter how many times I use the task manager to kill all the application. I've already updated to the latest official software of at&t but I'm not really satisfied.
I'm sorry if I wrote to much or demand to much lol, but please help me out. I will like the crap out of you if you do:highfive:

Can you guys please help me out here......

the rom that I use is jellyzeus, is a JB rom, it's so great fast, no lag here is the link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2021373
you have to flash this kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1817548 version 7a works fine.
If you want a ICS rom you should try this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1854682 This rom is so great, unoficial rom from sony, everything works on it.
Sorry for my English, hope this help you.

And it isn't hard either to not be a ***** about it. Posts like this are completely useless. Don't you think I've done that? Or anyone else that's a member of this site? How do you think I've found this site in the first place? A lot of the information on the internet is very vague, especially for noobs. So forgive us, for not wanting to **** up are newly bought phones, and for wanting explicit information.
Thanks to the guys above. Y'all are flawless!

Lenovo A7600 Rom - Lollipop

Would be very grateful for a link for Lenovo A7600 Rom for Lollipop O/S. A link other than that posted in 3 parts on a spam site.
Thanks

Ive just picked up one of these tablets and managed to root it and install custom revcovery.
To be honest I think there are zero custom ROM for this device and the supposed Lollipop ROM on those spam sites are bound to be a load of virus. I have seem three or four such 3 part download sites all of which are hidden behind a survey. All the comments on the sites are exactly the same but are posted by different people depending what site you look at which indicates they can't be trusted.
I have tweeted Lenovo to see if they plan a Lollipop update but no reply yet.
I think we need to either need to learn how to port or find a dev that can do it

Really nice to see your response, would you be kind enough to inbox me with your custom recovery. I really need to even get the stock rom to reflash if you could help. Thanks so much for replying and if we can get someone interested in porting to LP i would happy to contribute.

There isn't a Lollipop ROM yet for A7600f. It is possible to root and get custom recovery installed but as far as I can tell there is no official lollipop update or custom ROM development at all

Legit?

I checked the link and it is for the S8 smartphone which also as model number A7600. If you have that smartphone you test it at your own risk but if you are talking about a rom for A7600F tablet it won't be compatible.
As Lenovo don't seem to be official updating the A7600F tablet im guessing we need a custom rom. Unfortunately I don't think it's that popular a tablet so won't pull in developers and regrettably I'm not skilled enough to even know where to start.

I received the s8 a7600 with android 5.0 - it looks like that OS is just installed by seller, with multiple application that are a huge adware/spam generators. I tried to remove all (root/remove apps), but it destroys a little the functionality (dialer has opacity - not so easy to find what is going on, camera not working at all). But generally works. If anyone has skills - I am sure it can be easy fixed (for example install 3rdparty dialer - but that one from lenovo is pretty fine). But I think I will update phone with stock ROM, but I need to find how to do that safely and be sure I can back to the actual software...

A bit of a necro here ...
Yep, it is a long-winded guide. I wrote everything as best I could just in case.
I'd be surprised if more than 5 people are still looking to root this device. But for those folks, I updated the guide tonight.
I hadn't used the tablet much until this past week, my phone was doing better and I was only using the tablet for streaming videos as a portable TV. However my phone died and I finally got around to re-rooting the tablet (I has lost root after applying an OTA update about a year ago).
And no, there are not any custom ROMs ... no Lollipop ... no Marshmallow ... never Nougat ... for this tablet. This guide is PURELY for getting root on 4.4.
That said, here is the short version ... this MAY work on a never-rooted A10 A7600F ... it may only work to REFRESH the root. I have no good way of knowing as there isn't a chance in hell I'm going to revert everything to stock to find out
Glad to know at least 10 people got help from the guide.
UPDATE 9/22/2016:
Revised Steps are simple:
* Download Kingo Root (not King Root, that failed) APK version for Android.
* Run Kingo Root.
* If it fails, reboot, and try again (mine failed the first time)
* Assuming Kingo Root worked the second time (if not, see the original detailed steps below) ... DON'T REBOOT yet (when I did this, the root disappeared, so I had to run Kingo Root a 3rd time)
* Install a Root Checker and verify root access
* Install (first time) or uninstall and re-install (updating is fine if yours was out of date) SuperSU by Chainfire (other SuperSU may or may not work, Chainfire worked for me)
REBOOT
* Re-run Root Checker to verify root access (don't run Kingo Root before this) ... it should be using SuperSU to grant root, NOT Kingo
* If rooted, uninstall Kingo Root
* REBOOT
* Re-run Root Checker to make sure SuperSU continued to work after removing Kingo Root.

There are multiple "A7600" devices out there. This is specifically for the A7600F, aka the A10. Different device, ROMs not compatible with other A7600 devices. Lenovo can burn in hell both for their lack of updates as well as their naming conventions.

Hi all,
I have ported a CM13 ROM to this device to bring us to Android 6.0.1. if anyone is interested I will start a thread for and provide instructions and a link later today.

Just a little help on picking a ROM

So I recently installed Fulmics 3.7 but found that it still has BT issues on the F400K making it impossible to sync with my Gear Live.
I started searching and found the KDZ files for MM for my phone but was unable to find any simple debloated/rooted ROMs made from them.
What I'm looking for is a ROM that simply works, nothing fancy or flashy. Can anyone point me in a good direction?
I would like to stick to MM if possible but am not totally married to the idea.
I made a post in the Android MM discussions thread asking about whether my SIM would be locked to some Korean carrier if I updated (bought the phone in Asia and now use it in the US, was already rooted when I purchased it and not sure if the original setup was locked to a Korean carrier) so if someone replies and says it will work I may just flash the KDZ and then root afterward.
Anyway, if anyone could put in their two cents I would really appreciate it

@cliffordconradsumner , flashing KDZ will not lock it to Korean carrier. If your are looking for stable stock based rom, I would recommend to download and install below. Found it from lgviet, it is modified by member Tizen. I used all other roms including Fulmics but reverted back to it as everything works on it.
Rom Download Link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-V6jOenWB4sOVNFUmhRcXZSZ2M/view
File Addition : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-V6jOenWB4sRnRCSTBwdmM2MXM/view
Installation Instructions:
You must be on Stock Lollipop, rooted and TWRP recovery installed.
Full wipe (Date, system, cache, Dalvik)
Install the rom by choosing your variant and reboot. (DO NOT install file addition zip at this point)
Once you complete initial setup, reboot into recovery with Quickboot app (already included in recovery) and now install File addition zip. (downloaded above from 2nd link). Reboot your cell and enjoy.

Thanks so much for the info! I'm doing a search for lgviet not to try and find the rom to read up a little more about it. Is there a thread here on XDA?

sm-t110 (only root or install rom?)

Hello everyone,
this is my first post in this forum, so i'm excusing in advance if this is the wrong place for this post.
I have a samsung tab sm-t110 which is very slow on every action. I try to format it, but I see no improvement. I then look around to know a little about root and roms.
I read several thread in this forum and i have some question.
1) I'd like to speed up my tablet and remove unnecessary apps, do I just need to root it? If yes, can you confirm is this thread the one I need to follow carefully?
2) What action do you suggest to do after?
3) If you think it would be better use a rom, which one do you suggest?
Sorry if my questions are silly, I'm new and wish to know better this world before starting manipulating my devices
And thanks to whoever will spent his time answering

As far your device, you should first root it . And thn use 3rd party soft wares to delete the unnecessary apps. This will help a lot and you can also download Lineage for your device .

I root the device successfully
Thanks for the clean and easy-to-follow guide (can't write in the thread, it's closed)
For now I'll try using the rooted device with some app.
Really last question for now, what would be the best ROM? The Lineage OS that seems will be out for the end of July?
