Root How To Root Alcatel One Touch Evolve 5020T

Same here. I can get root with the Chinese tool, but I encounter serious system slowdown and overall general quirkiness. bin4ry's tool doesn't achieve root, but the phone and app recognize the commands.

On the other hand, I used Kingo and everything works fine. Any new One Touch Evolve owners should consider [ROOT] Kingo Android Root Method[ROOT] Kingo Android Root Method - xda-developers instead of this chinese app. The only issue so far is that Titanium Backup is unsuccessful at removing bloatware.
 
I rooted my wife's old ZTE Avail 2 the other day... and im going to toy around with that for a little while before I try rooting my Alcatel one touch Evolve ... in the mean time, does anyone have any suggestions on flashing ROM for the Alcatel?

Or is the current ROM pretty decent? just needs to be rooted/cleaned up?

Im not sure if im using correct terminology but hopefully someone knows what im trying to say :D
 
This program looks very very shady. I seen already other threads and the mods of another website reported warez links. Don't use it

Kingo or Cydia Impactor?

Kingo was barred on xda for a while, but staff there worked with the kingo devs and eventually declared it safe.

Can't comment on Cydia Impactor.
 
i used Cydia Impactor for 2 different phones, Alcatel one touch evolve and ZTE avail 2. worked like a charm on both phones.

No this "Universal Root". Penguin was right, someone has even said it sends information to China. Can't trust that.
 
anyone has the stock firmware for metro PCS evolve?
I did something stupid by removing custpack folder to sd card. thinking I can remove the bloatware. But now phone will not start .. DUH


I am hoping to flash factory image using the stock recovery and it should be good

or if I find a way to put the custpack back to root folder
any suggestion how can I do this?

Thank you
 
The apk worked flawlessly for me and i was able to setcpu and wireless tether. even though i have already purchased pdanet a while ago..:smokingsomb:

Looking forward to delving into some development with JTag possibly and for other reasons. sweet root worked fast. I dont mind the chinese shit being in there but I seen in the OP to copy SU with root browser?
