Hey guys, i like to root my new iNew U3 with android 5.1
So i used several programs like Kingroot, oneclickroot aso. but no apk works.
May the device is simple not to root atm?
Thanks Brook
I have tested all available root apps, no success.
I have Readbacked boot, recovery and system images, boot and recovery have special format, not possible to unpack and repack by available tools, mainly repack is problem. System is native EXT4 mountable under linux, injected by supersu files and modifications, but because of SELinux files are not available to exec under running android. I am not able to set right files contexts under Ubuntu.
I will let you know if find solution.
Hi guys, I bought this phone ( Inew U3 ) on Ebay .
The phone is not so bed!! But I can't move any app on the microSD !!!!!!
In any case app can move on SD, It is that the main memory is set to the phone, whether the main memory is set to SD !!!!!
Even with third-party app, type Link2SD you can move apps to the SD, are always on the phone memory !!!
Also you can not do root in any way !!
Solutions?
OK, found way how to root this phone.
Method is "simple":
First OTA update to version iNew_U3_5.1_V1.1.0, not sure if root survive OTA. Do factory reset.
Use SP Flash Tool to backup system.img,
mount is under linux to /system folder as ext4, it is pure ext4.
Unpack latest UPDATE-Supersu package.
Open file update-binary file as text, do all as in instructions.
Umount /system folder after finished.
Flash system.img back to phone.
If not shown reinstall SuperSU app from Playstore.
I will share modified system.img with scatter on needrom later tomorrow.
EDIT: Dwnload link: http://www.needrom.com/download/inew-u3-prerooted-system-img/#
I tried it, but it didnt work.
Everytime i extract the Zip i get a failure, that the file is corrupt?
Is there any other way?

Every time i try to flash a rom i get a error that says
E:Cant find update script
Using Amon Ra recovery. Wiped everything and partitioned sd card.
Thanks for any help
Sounds like the update package is not signed with valid keys. Is your phone rooted ?

check your zip. If you zip a file two folders deep it will give the same error. open your zip and see if you see your files or another folder.
yeah when i unzip it, the first folder i see is the name of the rom "fresh" then when i open it, I see; boot image file, data folder, META-INF folder, sdcard folder, and system folder.
Well update script is in META-INF\com\google\android but if your zip file is not signed then it can't be flasshed that is why you get upgrade script not found.
How do i do that????? And walk me through what "signed" means
And im using a macbook pro if that helps any
Thanks a ton
Well did unziped the zip folder ? Did you make any changes to the installation zip ?
Now what rom are you running. So you have root ? When you use connectbot and type su deo you see #? It could be that your phone is not ruter and does not have proper recovery installed since we can't sign rom with the same keys that developers at sprint use we have to root the phone and allow it to accept custom rom.
all i did was download the fresh rom from the forum onto my computer, compressed it (zipped it) then rebooted my phone into recovery, wiped everything i needed to, enabled the usb, moved the zip over to the phone, disabled the usb and then went to flash zip, found the zipped fresh rom and tried to flash it.
Im running my stock rom that came with the phone.
If you running this on mac the os x will unzip ypur file and put the download file in trash so use zip file from trash. Now You need to use simple root to root and install proper recovery on your phone then you will be able to install custom rom .
Awesome! found the zip file in the trash like you said, transfered that over and it worked! thank you thank you thank you!
Hi!! I update to 4.4 official fro 4.1 rooted and unlocked bootloader via mobile tool. After that my photos,music,downloads e.t.c is nowhere! I still have my apps,too. I installed again cwm and from there i saw that there is one partition with current system and one partition where my photos,music e.t.c exist...Is there any way to get rid of second partition and move my files to the new system partition?
Your files are in root folder/data/media just download a file manager that supports rooted divices like root explorer give superuser rights and paste all your data to storage file

Thanks man! I saved my files at last! I used root explorer like you suggest, but my files was on /mnt folder! The filles was not accessible there, but after moved on new /sdcard0 partition everything works!
Glad to see you find a solution
First off, though I don't know that it'd be a factor here, but I switched carriers from T-Mobile to AT&T. I don't really see how switching SIM cards would have any effect - I'd already updated to 20e, re-rooted, and installed TWRP. Double checking under Settings/Hardware Info, it shows my phone still is listed as a LG-D851.
It's been awhile since I made or checked my local TWRP backups but checking just now my TWRP folder displays as a 0 byte file. My thought was delete the file, copy a full set of TWRP folders (nandroid) back from my extSDcard and I'd be fine. Problem is I can't delete the file (and now thinking best to ask first, lol!).
I've tried with FX file manager (with root granted) but get an access denied error. Going in under System as root user and navigate to /mnt/sdcard/, I see all other folders but no TWRP file. I've tried ES File Explorer which successfully deletes it, but it reappears. Even tried deleting and creating a temporary TWRP folder immediately after but I get "Sorry, operation failed".
I'm able to get into TWRP, run a backup which says it completed successfully, but I see it as this file rather than a folder like it should be... Searching, I found one a workaround: TWRP Troubles
I use TWRP Manager free and thought about installing the latest TWRP for my D851 (from 2.8.6.0 to 2.8.7.0) but don't know if it'd create a bigger problem. Thought best to ask the pros!!
Any thoughts?

As I added after my initial post, if I boot into TWRP recovery and connect to my PC, TWRP shows on my PC as a folder. I'm able to copy it to my PC, but this isn't the most elegant. Is there something more I can do to get back to seeing/using folder operations on it while using an android file manager?
Again wondering if I update TWRP via TWRP Manager if that'd help any...and presumably my hardware hasn't changed any, so still would be TWRP for the d851?
Thanks!!
So I can't seem to figure out how to do this I download the proper files and everything I go into TWRP and go to flash the zip file only problem is the zip file is nowhere to be found I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 Tri-Band (model #L710T) (Running Oct Os) Anyway moving on every time i go into recovery mode my storage option at the top is stuck on internal storage I can't change it every time I try to change it to micro SDcard nothing happens then the file path is just this icon ---> (/) then the folders available are boot, cache, data, dev, etc, external_sd, license, proc, recovery, res, root, sbin, sdcard, sideload, supersu, sys, system, tmp, twres, and usb-otg but when I go into any of those none of them have zip files in them as well as the file path is not the same from the one where my downloads folder is in es file explorer and the one in TWRP then i get this file path with storage/emulated/0 or something I honestly can't figure this out for the life of me and all I want is xposed so anyone who can help me I honestly do appreciate it I will be willing to post any photos or anything you need for more info and fyi my S3 is running Android Marshmallow 6.0.1 if that helps as well (mods sorry if I posted in the wrong section just signed up today as of posting this)

Still Did Not Work
Still did not work any other suggestions oh but I did manage to be able to select micro SD card its not stuck on just internal storage anymore but yeah that did not work.
If it downloaded its gotta be on your system somewhere. Use a good file explorer with root privileges that has a search function.
I had to search for it on mine, too. I don't remember exactly where it was, but I can narrow it down to data, sdcard, sys, or system. I am very much a noob, so I checked every subfolder in ever folder to find it. I hope that helps
Sent from my SPH-L710 using XDA-Developers mobile app
I'm running running the 4.4.2 bug fixing module if it matters.
When trying to: Download apk's, save pictures, use TB, I get an inability to access proper location error.
(Screens hots say USB storage maybe turned on.)
(TB says that storage/emulated/0/legacy can't be accessed. )
Es and other file explorers show that location as the only existing folder inside of internal storage. ("0").
Nothing else is in either folder.
I want to "restore" (Whether that be create folders, or re-flash)
EDIT: Using "Undeleter" app to recover all Archive file types (Zip, Apk, Jar.) And Image file types (there were like 8 different kinds.) Now my plan is to save it all to internal memory storage/emulated/0
I have no clue what else to do, or how to address the Legacy folder inside if "0".
Thanks in advance.
Also want to upgrade to Sm-900t/TWRP/Root/Xposed/5.0 Lollipop in the future if anyone can link a tutorial.
Would be willing to accept newest update as long as TWRP/ROOT/XPOSED are functional and Multi-Window/Pen-Window are both functional.
You could flash the latest stock ROM from sammobile.com using Odin. Then flash twrp via Odin. Flash supersu via TWRP to get root, then install xposed.
