Unlocking TMOBILE DASH ...

Hello everyone!
I have download several utility and file to unlock my new Dash Tmobile phone and I was so nervous of what to do since it is my first time to unlock the phone. So I went to ebay.com and bought two software from a guy .. 1. application unlock, 2. SIM CID unlock ...
I ran this software as the guide tell me what to do, but at the end still did not work for me. I have read step by step very careful and still did not work.
Easy auto-install Instructions:
-------------------------------
1. Run first “DashExcalibur_Unlock_v1.bat”
NOTE: PLEASE BE ADVISED THE MANUAL PROCESS IS TRULY OPTIONAL NO NEED TO RUN IT IF YOU DOUBLE CLICK ON THE AUTO INSTALL “DashExcalibur_Unlock_v1.bat”.
If you don't want to install automatically, or for some reason the process doesn't work for you, here are the manual instructions:
---------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Transfer from folder SSPL/”DashExcalibur.exe” to your phone and run it
2. Tri color screen will appear
3. Disable Active sync (file -> connection settings -> uncheck "allow USB connections")
4. Connect your phone to your computer using the USB lead.
5. run RUU/”ROMUpgradeUtility.exe”
6. Follow the flashing process (Check the "I understand..." and "I completed..." boxes and update!) (Note: If you get and error “Invalid
Vendor ID or “Invalid Update Tool” It’s ok. That means more then likely your phone doesn’t need the boot loader update” and run the Other ROM update we have provided. It’s located in the “DASH ROM Update” Folder.
Double click “DASH ROM Update.11.531.2_4.1.13.24_02.48.90_T-Mobile.US_SHIP” to install/update your phone. (Continue as follow below:….)
7. Allow your phone to reboot.
8. Transfer/Copy “DashExcalibur _Unlock_v1.exe” program to your phone and run it
9. Click the Unlock Button, select unlock option. Select if you want SIM/CID unlock.
10. Click "Unlock!" and wait until process finishes.
11. When done, turn off your phone for 10 seconds and reboot after that.
I ran bouth the auto unlock and manual unlock but still didnt go ... I notice that when it tried to update the ROM .. at the end it state INVALID VENDOR ID .. and the ROM suppose to change from 1.22.xx.xx.xx to 1.11.xx.xx.xx and after it reboot I checked the system info it still show 1.22.xx.xx.xx ...but when I ran the SIM/CID unlock it stated that successfully but when I put a foreign SIM in .. it still ask me the code....
Anyone here has any idea?
thanks;

thanx.................................................................

Root clarification for Optimus G Pro

The instructions to root the LG Optimus G Pro are posted in other threads and multiple pages on the web.
And I thank the folks who have done all the hard work to make that possible.
So tonight I finally got around to using those instructions and found that, as usual, a few key things were either left out or given in the wrong order, which inevitably is going to make some folks say "It doesn't work!" because, as written, it doesn't quit work.
So here's an edited version of the instructions from other folks, with the stumbling points cleared up and made into YnGlitch for dummies like me, so you'll get it right the first time. I hope. This worked on an AT&T branded phone, btw. Clarifications and comments in red.
1. (Optional if you have another means of un-RARing) Download and install 7-zip from here
2. Download and install LG USB Drivers from here.
(THE LINK IS http://www.lg-phones.org/lg-optimus-g-pro-usb-drivers.htmlWithout )
these drivers, your computer won't be able to effectively communicate with your phone. This is vital for the steps we will be taking.
3. Enable USB debugging by going to Settings->(General)->Developer options" and checking the box next to "USB debugging." You will get warnings. You can probably ignore them. This setting will allow you to run commands on your phone from your computer (via USB). For more info on the Android Debug Bridge, click here.
4. Download and extract (using 7-zip (or whatever)) the root exploit from here.
5. Connect your phone to the computer with your USB cable.
6. Put the phone into "Charge Only" mode at Settings->General->PC connection->USB connection type
7. Open CurrentRoot.bat and follow its prompts. See below. You will need to change from "Charge Only" to "Media sync (MTP)" mode. The setting is in the same place.[Change to Media Sync before running currentroot.bat]
Phone will reboot when this finishes running, wait it out.
8. Run SuperSU (now in your apps drawer) [that's the APPS folder on the phone, not APPS: DOWNLOAD folder] it and make sure it works. This program allows others to gain access to superuser privileges. For more info on rooting and what kind of stuff it lets you do, click here and/or use Google.
Thanks to XDA User carrett for this.

Thanks for your thread but you might wanna add the links for rooting(such as the link for currentroot.bat) . Also, just to check, does this work with KitKat?

How to root almost any htc android phone

Disclaimer:-I will not be responsible for bricked devices,Dead sd cards, Data loss or anything that happens due to this guide.
Things Required
A Windows 7 computer
Kingo HTC Bootloader unlock
Kingo Android Root
An HTC Android phone
A working brain
Download and install Kingo android root and Kingo HTC Bootloader unlock from Kingoapp's official website. I cannot share the link due to xda limits for junior developers.
Install your device's official drivers from htc's official website.
Rooting Steps
Open Kingo htc bootloader unlock and follow the instructions. REMEMBER DO NOT TOUCH YOUR PHONE TILL THE BOOTLOADER UNLOCK DOES NOT SAY 'FINISH' OR 'SUCCESS'.
Then look at your phone . It will be showing a message that 'do you want to unlock your bootloader' and there will be a disclaimer below it. Below the disclaimer, there will be a 'Yes' and a 'No' button. Use your volume keys to toggle to yes and then press power button to select. It will wipe all your data and apps so make sure that you have backed up everything.
After rebooting, complete the setup and then reboot your Windows 7 computer and your phone.
Then launch Kingo android root
Enable USB Debugging on your device (As you would have done while unlocking your bootloader and Kingo bootloader unlock will also teach you how to enable usb debugging if you press details or help button near its top).
Press 'root my phone' and wait till it roots your phone. REMEMBER NOT TO TOUCH YOUR PHONE WHILE IT IS ROOTING.
After that your phone is rooted. :good: .
Note:- Unlocking bootloader will void your warranty and delete system apps like Htc calculator, Ringtone trimmer, HTC Flashlight, TV Remote, Soundhound, 7Digital , Dropbox , etc so remember to make a backup of those apps also using ES File Explorer or MiXplorer. I didn't do that and I lost all of them.
Press thanks and comment below if it helped and if it didn't work write your problems in the comments.

Hi mate, I don't want money hehehe
This method worked for me (I'm on .21 firm):
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xpe...-18-1-1-21-t2889847/post56532112#post56532112
This method is for people who are on 18.1.A.1.21, which is a newer version than yours, but you can use it anyway.
Do the step 1. (these drivers are necessary)
Ignore step 2. (you're on .14 firmware, the rootable one)
Do as step 3 says: "Active USB debugging and Install apps from unknown sources."
To enable USB debugging:
- Go to settings>about.
- Scroll to "build number" and tap it 7 times. (you'll see an alert showing 'you're now a developer' or something like that.
- Go back to Settings menu and now you'll find developer options near 'About'
To enable unknown sources:
- Go to Settings > security > unknown sources (enable it)
ignore step 4 (you're already on .14 kernel)
ignore step 5 (that happens when you swap the kernel, not the case)
Connect your phone to your computer (make sure there's no lock screen, keep it awake) and do step 6 (download the rootkit and run install.bat)
It will reboot.
Done, you have SU installed and working!
Of course I'm not responsible of any damage, but it should work as I told you.
Good luck!

thank you i will try this

just says daemen started successfully and nothing else. **** this phone -.-

Looks like USB debugging is not working properly...
When you connect your phone to the computer, do you see a message in your phone to accept the USB debugging connection?

Help rooting a BLU Dash M

I need some assistance trying to find a method to root my Dash M (which appears to be extremely rare to find a rooting method for).
I already tried framaroot (tool I used to root my tablet before) and Kingroot and such, but none were able to do it (and all google searches led to videos on rooting a BLU Dash 5.0 or another device from the Dash range, which isn't what I needed).
The Dash M is running Android 5.1 and custom build BLU_D030U_V16_GENERIC 28-01-2016 15:41
If anyone could help it'd be very much appreciated c:

Unlock OEM in developer mode and try it whit Kingroot

I have a Blu Advance 5.0, from the same exact family. In May, they had an OTA sent out to it to update the security. And little did I know, that meant no more root. Before the OTA to V06, I was on V04, and was able to root with Kingroot in less than a minute, perfectly. After the update, nothing good came of it.
For the past months I've tried hundreds of things to flash custom roms and recoveries (which I figured it out eventually) and then it crashed, due to a "damaged OTA". This meant that it couldn't update because I was rooted.
So here's the solution... If there's any older versions of your model or chipset (AKA Mediatek D030UX, D030U {MT6580}), download that firmware to your computer desktop as a (.zip) file. Then download the SP Flash Tool (Smart phone flash tool) from their website, and plug your phone into your computer via Media Transfer (MTK).
If you already have developer's options enabled, skip this.
- Go into your settings, go all the way down to "About Device", and find where it says "Build Number" (which will most likely have the phone brand in the file name). Tap on that about 8 times until it give a toast notification saying "Developer's Mode Enabled".
After you get that done, go back into your regular setting and now there should be a box above your "About Device" button that says "Developer Options". Tap that, then turn them on (press OK/YES if a prompt pops up) and then select the following options ,if available.
-OEM Unlock
-USB Debugging
Now plug your phone into a computer and install the drivers for your phone (it should do it automatically) and launch the SP Flash Tool that you had downloaded (extract to desktop before you launch, or it will show "error"). Now open the SP Flash tool and click on the "Scatter Loading" button. Navigate to your desktop, and find the firmware folder you downloaded. Click on that, then click on "Firmware", and it should bring up a .TXT file (Scatter file) with the desired firmware version you want. Click on it and press open.
A chart will appear in the space below with all the things the firmware has built in. All of them should be checked. Take out your battery now (from your phone) and plug the phone in without the battery. Wait for the model on the left to name your device, and click on the drop down list above the chart, it should give 3 options. Firmware Upgrade, Download only, and Format All + Download. Press Format All + Download. The bar at the bottom will turn a few colors, depending on what it's doing.
Now you're done! It's flashed. From that version, try to figure out a way of rooting it.
WARNING: Flashing erases all data on device, please backup to an external storage (SD CARD), before attempting this, in case you brick your device.

i know this is an old thread but.... i rooted mine (Dash M) with KingoRoot (look it up on Google)... i tried lots of stuff with no results, everything failed (i've already tried to root with KR in windows) but the only thing that worked was rooting with the android app in KR page... i felt really stupid after trying everything with no results when i've been using KR for other "hard phones".... either way, the only downside is that their SU manager displays all the time ads no matter where in the phone you are... but you can freeze the app to fix this and unfreeze it when you need to assign permissions....
BTW: its KingoRoot not kingroot (just in case)
