Hi there,
I am trying to root my tablet (Zync Z930) with the "Root MANY ANDROID" method ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1886460 ), however, I have some problems:

Yes, battery is a shame right now. But I wonder whether this is just a software-bug related problem or bad configured software-related one as the capacity of 3600 mAh should not be so bad I think or am I wrong?

dear badday2,
please go to this thread to root your zync z930 tablet.

Results provided for your SGH-I747M - Android 4.3 device by Root Checker Pro version 1.4.2 from joeykrim in the Android Market - my device is an android Galaxy s3 version is 4.3 and I'm not running a Rom and I used towel root please help I can't find the solution anywhere

Hi there,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum.
Stand by

The simplest way to get root in my opinion is to flash Philz Touch recovery for the d2lte using Odin. Then flash super su from recovery, boot phone, let supersu and disble knox, reboot phone, done.

I have an Alcatel ideal 4060a and it's does the exact same thing an says the same when I do my root checker. What do I do to get my root back?

If you have an older kernel, made on or before May 2014, then you can use towel root to gain root.

Internal Storage Permission issues

Hello there,
I got a problem with my internal sdcard... I dont have access to certain directorys...
I am trying to delete a file from a folder (Downloads) and it works.
I am trying to delete a file from a folder (one which a app created on a other rom (ressurection)) and it doesent work, even as root i get permission denied.
Some Infos:
Old ROM: Ressurection Remix
ROM: Bumped Lollipop, Stock
Model: D-855
Carrier: None
All Commands as root:
Output of "#ls -la /sdcard/":
Code:
Downloads: drwxrwx--- root sdcard_r some-date some-time Downloads
Other Folder: drwxrwx--- root sdcard_r some-date some-time Folder
Output of "#ls -la /sdcard/Folder/":
Code:
-rw-rw---- root sdcard_r some-size some-date some-time File-to-delete
Output of "#rm -f /sdcard/Folder/File-to-delete":
Code:
rm: File-to-delete: Permission denied
Any Ideas?
EDIT:
Could someone send me the output of "ls -la /sdcard/" and "ls -la /storage/external_SD" of his G3, I wanna try to set Owner and Group and permissions of the folders
