[Q] Please help me rooting a branded G900F topic

Howdy y´all ,
I´ve been trying to figure out for the entire day how to root my G900F with stock FXXU1ANI3 firmware ( Vodafone Germany branded) . Unfortunately the build date is Sep 12 2014, so I can´t just flash the latest german unbranded version with KIES. Everyone is telling me that I should root first and backup EFS partition before using Odin, so I don´t just wanna flash CWM, trigger Knox and flash a rom . And I can´t just follow the towelroot guides because the stock kernel is nowhere on the Internet.
Can someone give me some advice what I can do to gain root access? I just need to change SELinux to permissive and install Appradio Unchained to pair with my head unit.....

Thanks in advance :)

(holy cow, rooting has become so complicated....I was 14 when i got my first Galaxy in 2010, hence my stupid username here and rooting was so easy back then....)

[Q] Rooting Galaxy note 3 SM-N9005 topic

Good day, I am trying to root my note 3 but it doesn't seem to work. Also i couldn't find any threads or forums discussing my problem. The problem is:
I can't install SuperSU. It says installation aborted very soon. It is unpacking and then aborts the installation .
Also it gives me this option "rom may flash stock recovery on boot THIS CAN NOT BE UNDONE" then i have the options of - no, - yes disable recovery flash, and - go back. It doesn't matter which one I choose because the phone reboots normally in all three options. Is there anyone who has had this problem or knows a way to solve this?

Thanks already

[Q] Rooting Oppo Find 7 to Lollipop version topic

[B]Hello Everyone!

I am new to XDA developers site and this is my first post on this website...

I am having oppo find 7 with android version 1.2.7, I found that there is a custom ROM available to switch to Lollipop version. While following installing instructions I found that at a point where we have to get into Custom recovery mode and then after wiping cache we have to select the image file to begin the rooting process. But the moment I click on the image file which I have downloaded it says "installation failed". I am not sure whether I downloaded the right file or not. Can anyone please help me with some screen-shots on 'which file to be downloaded from the "pan.baidu.com/s/1o66x7n0" website.

I have limited knowledge on rooting, so please help me with screen-shots or stepwise procedure to be followed.

I also found that when I click on the downloading link I get 2 buttons for downloading one in blue another in grey, i selected grey one(which resulted in installation failure). I also see there is a folder updated with the name "CM12-Find7-wuxianlin" which has many image files(dont know their use).

Your help is much appreciated!!!

Nokia X2: Rooting & Installing Google Play Store after upgrading Nokia X2 to 2.1.0.12 topic

Rooting and Installing Google Play Store after upgrading Nokia X2 to 2.1.0.12.

Did this right after upgrading to v2.1.0.12 with nothing else installed.
Upgraded to v2.1.0.12 using the Lumia/Nokia Software Recovery tool.

NOTE: Disable any Anti-Virus installed on the machine before running this.
Though it did not report any malicius code, on running it with turned On gave errors regarding running ADB daemon.
(I use Avast Anti-Virus)

1. Download Nokia x2 tools from the given link .

http://allnokia.ru/soft/moreinfo-115.htm

2. Enable developer mode and USB debugging on the phone:

To activate the developer mode go to Settings - About phone, and tap 5 times to "Software version".

To activate USB debugging go to Settings - Developer options - USB debugging.

3. Connect phone to PC with USB cable and run Nokia X tools v1.2.

4. First install the drivers typing 1 (i.e. "1 - Install Drivers for Nokia X2") and press enter.
After drivers are successfully installed reboot phone and also reboot PC.

5. Again connect the phone to PC and make sure it is in developer mode and USB debugging is enabled.

Enable root access by typing 4 (i.e. 4 - Gain Root-access (SuperSU 2.02)) and press enter.
Press enter if it ask if drivers are installed.
Note the instructions given after Root Access is successfully enabled.
Reboot phone and run the SuperUSer App as per the instructions noted in the command prompt.

6. Install Google Play Services by typing 2 (i.e 2 - Install GOOGLE PLAY + Services) and press enter.
Press enter if it ask if drivers are installed.
Reboot phone after Google Play Services is successfully installed.

[Q] Question: Rooting worth it on this tablet? topic

I have taken the plunge and gotten this awesome slate. I root EVERYTHING ALWAYS. The one thing I am wondering is whether anyone has ran into serious stability issues or loss of functionality with rooting? Also, what ROMS do you recommend as a daily driver?

I appreciate it, I realize I am little late to the game here, but this was the tablet I wanted all along.
