I'm trying to recover a bunch of deleted photos on my phone but all the recovery software (Fonepaw and Dr Fone) fail saying they are unable to root the phone. I've googled the process for my phone but it always points to the Indian build or downloading & installing a Developer rom. As I'm trying to recover files I'm cautious about unnecessarily copying new files onto the phone. Posts also make mention of build numbers 15-34 and none of my build numbers correspond to that. Under settings it has:
Xiaomi MI3
MIUI 8.0 Stable 8.0.1.0 (KXCCNDG)
Base band version DM_BASE_13A-8803G_W13.44 | 20140120092332
Kernel version 3.4.35-g8f1d7b1
Build humber KTU84P
Any tips on how to root the phone without installing a new OS?
