Hello All,

its being almost a month since Lava iris 406q have been launched but no one reported this getting rooted :(

Well from my side i tried following methods but no luck yet
1. framaroot all version
2. king o root
3. unlock root pro
4. eroot
5. rootkit
6. root genius 1.9.3


This contains Snapdragon MSM 8610 mother board and jelly bean 4.3 , every thing is cool with this device except internal memory which is too less and hard to have multiple obb files in it ,so root is mandatory .

If some one comes up with any solution or have rooted then please let every 1 know

@Moderators ,

I am not very sure whether this is proper topic to start this thread , in case it has to move please suggest , Ass such this is one of the most wonder full device and if we can have a seperate thread it woulb be helpful for all

Regards,
Shariq

Please be very very carefully using something like vroot for rooting your device. It is downloading binaries onto your computer and your device. In the case of vroot it is also collecting information from the device during the rooting process. This is why xda is classifying vroot as a form of malware and not because of the root exploits it contains. I usually close vroot threads, but that wouldn't be fair to the OP in this case, since he didn't start this as a vroot thread. So please, can we keep the vroot support to a minimum and look for another way of rooting this device.

Thanks buddy , thats what i have been talking to people for long ...........vroot is not atall safe and even people who have reported this being working doesnt looks real .........i know one person personally having this worked some time back but eventually with update it went back to unroot mode , problem is even if u root , it doesnt unroot and then no other software manage to root it again coz , ur bios. kernel is already hacked .

I tried rooting it thru vroot yesterday but was unsucessful. I had recently received an 25mb update. Any other method?
I want to root the phone for the below mentioned reasons :-

  1. 1 I want to play high end games (by installing them on the external memory card i have)
  2. 2 move most of the non system apps to the external memory card , right now the " move to SD Card" option moves apps to the internal sd card.
  3. Further setting the "Prefererred Install Location" in the "storage" section of settings to "external storage(SD card)" does not help much.
Any way to do these without rooting?

SuperSU working

Try these following steps, u will find SuperSU installed in your device:
- Install SuperSU from Google Play.
- Now update the SuperSU from Google Play [ONLY] once installed. (Note: Do not try to update from SuperSU apk itself,it will throw err: Failed to update binary)
- You will find SuperSU is installed corectly and it is showing version 2.01 (as in my case).
- You may need to remove KingUser apk from system. (No worries, the root willbe taken care by SuperSU apk now).[/FONT][/FONT]

Need stock/custom rom for Lava Iris 406Q


Can anybody please provide the stock rom/custom rom for lava iris 406q, my device is not working properly after root.

Its been a while now and nobody has created a stock rom for this device, even no rom is available in internet as well.

Pleeeeeeeeease i am badly in need of stock rom (in .zip format), i will be really helpful.

Once any1 person will provide stock rom, we can infact create more roms out of it.

My device is rooted via MtkDroidTools and Kinguser is installed. But somehow when i restarted my phone, it is not going past LAVA bootscreen....Also the red light is seen on the top.
If you have any updated CWM for this device, i can factory reset my device and lets pray it works!!!!

I do not have/created any custom rom, i am still in need of those.

Sorry for the late reply,Shariq. I am still unable to use gl 2 sd and other related apps to play high-end games.For now I really want someone to do custom roms for this phone, KitKat release by lava seems a distant dream.

Thanks buddy, well it seems i have the solution to your problem since recently it has happened to me as well

1. unroot
2. get ur phone updated to latest firmware from service centre
3. root using root genius 1.9.6 (latest)
4. get gl to sd version 2.3 and then tin tidin u r done ....

gl to sd 2.3 is probably the most unstable version but works well with another unstable jelly bean 4.3 :p
