Questions shd not be here this method is a hassle as you will need a PC.
Google it there is an update.zip you can flash using stock recovery to get root..no PC is required

(REQ) Samsung Galaxy A8 SM-A800I (Root) SOLVED

I've searched and tried too many methods none of them worked.
I even broke my device (soft break) while I was trying to do a root using a method for SM-A800F model, and I had a really bad day.
I couldn't restore my device using stock rom it failed on writing boot.img step (using odin).
I had to extract boot.img from the stock firmware (using winrar) then creating a new boot.tar using this tool tar-Tool_Odin3-v3.07_by_mkh.mourad to fix the problem.
I've tried too many "one click root apps" for both PC and Android (king root, Frama, mobogenie, root genius, rootx, few more) also none of them worked.
any help would be great
Thanks
SOLVED
I managed to get my phone rooted by following the instructions on this reply

Download my file here for samsung galaxy a800i root <<DOWNLOAD>>, and make sure you are on 5.1.1, flash it on pda using odin. make sure you enable usb debugging and oem unlock option. Dont tick auto restart, Flash it and when it is done, hold power button to restart, then see the magic and press thanks button! give feedback either it is working or not. and if you want to donate me, please press the donation button. thank you.

I've got this response from RVR, But I'm not convinced that this solution will work, because the recovery is not for this device.
it's for Samsung Galaxy Alpha which has 5.0.2 android version, mine is 5.1.1.
I think he just opened androidfilehost forum and searched for A8 and got a file for wrong device:
androidfilehost.com/?w=search&s=A8
Here's the link ..
Select in the AP tab of odin
Uncheck the auto reboot button
flash
reboot straight into recovery
Try flashing the SuperSU zip .. : download.chainfire.eu/SuperSU
Keep Stock firmware handy to flash in case the zip flash fails

nope as far as I know,and I'll not try it, because I'm pretty sure that it will not work and it will soft break the device because of the reasons that I mentioned before.

Okay. The phone is good. No better processor but very good for have just 5k mAh for economy battery.
My experience with BLU Products say no upgrade to M ROM. Well... You buy phone with money that you have.

Is it safe to do the recent OTA update with a rooted Studio Energy 2?

Maybe....
If you have backups by your ROM.... So only you decide if you want update or no update.
Very users have brick with ROOTed device. So...UNROOT and you decide.

I think no. Very users cannot update with ROOTed phone and/or have problems after update phone with ROOTed phone.
So is better make process to UNROOT and you decide if you want update.
That file is official bcoz was removed directly sdcard after download Wireless Update Fota application. The file wasn't modified.

I'm trying to get my BLU Studio Energy 2 to install the new wireless update after having rooted my phone using the guide here. In an attempt to get the update installed, I did a full unroot in SuperSU, flashed the original recovery ROM you posted, ran the "root integrity check" from the bootloader successfully, and wiped the cache. When I reboot my phone and try to do the wireless update, I still get the "Your system is damaged, wireless update is disabled" message. I even tried copying the original V12 update zip you posted to my phone and told it to do a local update. It behaved as though it was installing fine, but upon rebooting my phone, now in the wireless update screen, it shows my current version to be V05. Is there something else I'm missing?

My Energy 2 has V08 and not V05.
So rooted phones has files that change or modify the original files and update process know when users have ROOT!
When The users flash custom recoveries not backup stock ROM. The users go to ROOT immediately and it's "damaged" stock ROM.
If you not modify/delete any files from stock ROM so should ROOT process that not go update to V12!!
