Does anyone have a link to the best root method for the H918 T-Mobile phone? I found the dirty Santa, but it's not for our model.
Thanks
Recowvery. Its in the forum under developement.
I follwed this http://android.wonderhowto.com/how-to/root-your-t-mobile-lg-v20-using-dirty-cow-0175329/ for my H918 its a basically a fully detailed step by step of this https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/development/h918-recowvery-unlock-v20-root-shell-t3490594 which is the manual way.
The article made much more sense 'seeing' each and every single step as I was terrified on bricking. I followed it to the letter & put some tips in the comment section (3rd comment). Also make sure you're on update 10D [settings,about phone, software info, software version].
Happy Rooting

Hey guys, I'm wondering if anybody knows how you can root the TPT in such a way that after the ICS upgrade, it will still be rooted? I've seen a number of people talking about having done that over at the lenovo forums. I have build 0089_US.
Anybody know if this is doable?
EDIT:
Currently my TPT is bone stock.
Hey there, go to www.thinkpadtabletforums.com
In the root and hacks section of the forum, look for the topic "yet another root exploit for the thinkpad tablet (YAREFTPT)" and follow the instructions in that thread. That is the only exploit that'll work on your current tablet version. And by the way, you will need to be patient to get root to work and follow the instructions to the letter.
After rooting, there is another topic on that forum "installing ota3 with root preservation". Its a sticky, so you shouldn't have problems finding it. Follow those instructions AFTER rooting your tablet. It generally involves temp unrooting before updating and then restoring root back.
I know there are threads on here that say how to do this, but i cant seem to find them. Can someone please give me DETAILED step by step instructions (including links to pertinent software such as Odin, software drivers, etc) for a Verizon S5 with lollipop 5.0 build BOC3 & BOC4 (have 2 S5's, one has a build BOC3 and one has a build BOC4). I want to make sure i use the exact correct procedure so i dont brick these phones. My direct email (since i want to be able to find the instructions once someone here is kind enough to send them) is [email protected]. Also, one other thing. Can so,eome recommend the best Rom to flash to these phones? I am trying to learn this stuff as quickly as possible....
I too would like to be pointed in the direction of a thread with steps to root.

There is a thread with "how to root" in the title, why can't you all start there? I mean honestly, all you have to do is read...

Hello All,
Done some reading and searching but have been burned before and with the various upgrade options or warnings (e.g. Chainfire's post on encryption https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72204306&postcount=978) I am looking to confirm correct upgrade path before I brick or lose root forever.
I'm using a rooted Verizon S7 Edge (SM-G935V) on 6.0.1 baseband G935VVRU2APE1 on 3.18.20-eng kernal.
I believe I can follow jrkruse's instructions (https://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-s7-edge/how-to/root-method-nougat-t3566978) to upgrade to nougat, reapply fixes, and reroot, and remove any bloatware etc on my own.
Would anyone be able to confirm or possibly point out any missed posts that may be critical?
Appreciated.
Yes just follow his instructions and flash the u firmware or the verizon version both work great just make sure you follow everything to the letter skipping steps will cause issues

I was fortunate enough to come across a new H918 that is still running 10d.
While waiting for it to be delivered, I've been combing the threads on rooting and have seen several methods to accomplish this. My end goal is to have TWRP and root.
The phone was delivered yesterday. Now that I have it in hand, would someone be so kind as to point me to the best custom recovery/root thread to follow?
