Hi Guys
This phone is driving me crazy . no matter what i try i cannot root the dam thing . I have tried various rooting applications ie, oneclickroot / z4 no joy . downloaded ADB sdk tools tried sending various commands to the phone still no joy . I suspect my file system is read only but when i check via root explorer everything has read / write access . Going bonkers any help appreciated ... currently running android 2.3.5 obviously want to upgrade this.
many thanks
Stuart

I bought the same device... one month ago
I've been trying different procedures for rooting this device...

humbly asking...is anybody out there with more ideas?
hi every one,

i have then tried to recover it to try to root it again but thats come up fail too. now im trying to connect it to kie's to recover it.
all i want is good instruction that will work for my phone for a good kernel and instructions on how to install ROM all i wanted to do is extend my battery life and remove bloatware.
i just need some help
im currently on the "firmware upgrade encountered an issue" page on my phone
Can you give us a hint as to what is the issue in the phone, when you say you are trying to recover it.
Is it booting up ?
Stuck in a bootloop ?
Any other issues ?

At the moment i only own and have access to a linux laptop runnig ubuntu. my ultimate goal is to wipe my phone and install Cloudy kitkat untill the 5.0 version is avalible for my device. i have not had the phone for long so im not all that worried about data loss. in every guide i have read the best option for me is to downgrade to 10b and then root and flash cloudy. not a problem, asside from every guide ive found is for windows. if you could point me in the direction of a thread or tutorial that will show me how to do this from linux i would highly appreciate it. i dont mind the research and work involved in figureing it out, im just not finding any info on the subject at all. thank you.
Sir,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum for more relevant answers.

Good luck

dont update or do anything unless you consider yourself strong minded and comfortable with rooting, flashing etc
the phone tends to get locked the moment you try to update.
So think thrice before doing anything with this phone.

Thank You for your reply, I've searched for long, and I want to update it, as long as a good guide is presented, I think it'sfine to use root and flash.
For persons that have done it (root, custom recovery, custom ROMs) it IS OK, but for people that have little to no experience doing it, reading and absorbing info thru video media is invaluable. This device can be a little balky, so heed the warnings given, STUDY UP, and be careful...

Thank you for the reply and advice, I actually did a lot of reading, and concluded that I need to return it to stock firmware, update it then flash it to read my sim card, I just do not know how to revert to stock firmawre and flash the sim card.
Any Ideas ?

i have tried to do some research already but i am not an expert at searching or this stuff in general and could not find any good info
would it be safe to try a cyanogen or lineage os made for the regular g3, or should i not bother?
i actually was messing around with some other stuff, and bricked my phone and already had to unbrick it. it is now factory reset and working fine. this is a backup phone and i really dont care if it gets bricked, i really want to try to get it to 5.0 or greater if at all possible.
ty for any help!
