Root achieved on CAT B15Q !!!

Root finally achieved on CAT B15Q.
I tried all the simple methods, none worked.
I used PDAnet USB drivers.
To achieve root, I made a recovery using the CWM method with SP Flash Tool V5.1408.00 following this guide
chinaphonearena.com/forum/Thread-Tutorial-Ultimate-no-root-backup-CWM-MT6582-MT6592-MT6589-MT6589T-MT6577-MT6595
Recovery was patched using MTK Droid tools. However, SP Flash Tool V5 would not flash the phone with the patched Recovery and Boot files, so for that I used SP Flash Tool V3.1332.0sn187. Then root using MTK Droid tools - Superuser (SuperSU failed). Also useful was this guide
chinaphonearena.com/forum/Thread-Tutorial-How-to-build-CWM-and-root-Bedove-X21-MTK6577-and-other-MTK-phones
Note: When plugging phone in for flashing (this is done with the phone OFF), put battery in, plug cable into phone, hold volume down button when you plug the USB cable into the computer.
Checking with a root checker, it told me I did not have full root access, even though Superuser appeared to be working, I only had temporary root.
I then used Root Genius, which finally achieved full root.
A bit of messing around, but worth it.

Install busybox.

Could you make a tutorial?

Yes, a detailed tutorial how to successful rooting a Cat B15Q would be greatly appreciated.
I've tried with towelroot, but app says phone is not compatible.
Newest chinese version from RootGenius is 1.9.6, but international version is only 1.8.7 from
march 2014. Has anybody tried successfully with one of the versions?

failed at this one...
read back not working.
any more informations?

did i understand correctly, root genius works?
just want to be sure before i try it, thanks in advance

Roor genius didn't work for me. Left my phone in wierd state (screen flickering during call). Had to do factory reset after my root tries.

i hope this thread wont die, there isnt much information on the web on how to root the b15q.
has anyone found some good links, or some in any way useful info that they could post here?
i really hope this will turn out better than with the b15, where after half a year there was still nothing reliable
thanks in advance :good: :fingers-crossed:

Yeah, willing to buy beer to anyone who gets together working "how-to-root-my-CAT" guide

Can you tell us which version of RootGenius you used? Chinese 1.9.6, or older international version 1.8.7 from march 2014 ? Or another else?
For info: I have tried to contact as672 for more details, but no answer until today.

It's an apk fille (in chinese). Just download, run, wait, reboot and voila... Root is there. At least i have it on my B15Q since morning. Root is persistent (still rooted after multiple reboots) and controlled by KingUser app that you will get preinstalled after running thar chinese apk. How much is it safe or not I have absolutely no clue nor guarantee. For me it works without any problems (so far).

Dear cityshark_cz,
thank you for pioneering to root @ my CAT B15Q, keeps any reboot, all works fine!
Through rooting installed Kinguser App is near equal to SuperSU or Superuser.
Hopefully without Chinese back door...

I think I root my phone but I did not transfer my apps to SD card How do you do?

This should appear in Stump Root ??

A.you have to talk with the Dev. on Stump Root xda page and ask them.
B.you have to use bruteforce mode.
What is bruteforce mode?
We need to know the right location to "attack", we hardcode it for models/firmwares we have encountered. When Stump hits a device it does not "know" it can bruteforce the location. This can take upwards of 2 hours, but once down (if the phone has an internet connect) it will report it to us, and future builds can include the location.
after you will do root tell them to update this DOC about your Ver. D724.

The first time I put that number in it just came up with something but now it comes up with what you quoted.
But that is only a little part of my problem atm can't get root trying everything with no results.

Did you try KingRoot? (Not kingO) It worked fine with mine K420N.

Yes. Didn't get even close, even with OEM unlocked mode in dev settings.

ive used kingroot to root mines which it did but the thing is after installing L speed and Root booster i ended up with a Boot verifcation fail, i don't know exactly whether or not the problem was caused by Kingroot or by the other two apps

I just got my new K10 and iRoot did not work, so I tried http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/debloater-remove-carrier-bloat-t2998294 and it can at least disable the applications, so root is not so badly needed.

I have the T-Mobile 428 version, I have tried KingRoot, KingoRoot, iRoot, StumpRoot, LG One Click Root and Framaroot on this phone and nothing. I also tried a root method from a dev in XDA, just can't remember the name. It would be nice to have root on this device.

You got it wrong bro most of LG devices specially those running on Android M doesn't support "one click root". Lg K10 can be root by using adb, twrp, and super su package. Using commands in cmd will play a major role.
Follow this thread and look for its 1st page.

How to root???

Hi everyone, i have XA2 H4113 dual, after getting Android 9 pie i realized that its nothing different i got than Oreo, its so called software upgrade doesn't have sony Xperia new launched out of the box pie devices such as Xperia 10 and 10 plus user interface and launcher,
Over all its really disappointing to XA2 users which were hopeful for new UI and Launcher after updating 9.0 pie
So after deep consideration i am willing to root my device 1st time in life, but i want to root my device with one click root apps like King root, one click root or Kingo root, after watching several tutorials on YouTube about all these rooting apps i download and install one by one these all and try to root my device as per given instructions on tutorials , but no luck for me, please let me know and help me out what are the reasons behind rooting failure with these super easy and popular methods? Thanks in advance :good:

Probably none of the methods work on the newest os-es as the security has been hardend so you'll need to unlock the bootloader and the use twrp to install magisk...

Has anyone rooted this phone with lineageOS?
Tried addonsu and Magisk both seem to run ok when adb sideloaded through TWRP but don't actually work when booted into OS.
Why lineageOS hasn't got root by default?

So XA2 ultra user here and not sure if this helps, but magisk seems to install fine for us (discovery) but so far I'm having a ton of issues regarding freezes and reboots. Will search for a kernal fix, anyone have a clue to this? Just thought I'd inset my 2¢ into this and see if anyone has any insight to this. Thanks guys you do great work ?
