I've tried the beta of kingroot (v. 4.6.2 beta 1) and doesn't work :(
ROM version p1a42_S145_151207_ROW
Smake is speaking about root of P1a42 with changed ROM to chinese version P1c72 , your device is P1a42.
Before root you need to change ROM, guideline is presented as well by Smake.
Not sure if it is working.....

He wanted to know how to check VIBE UI version, not the change between P1A42 vs P1C72. [emoji1] [emoji1]
I have asked it also, I do not know, but did not receive answer as well..

Why is is that root works for the same rom version for p1c72 and not for p1c42 ? Can we just change build.prop through flashing some zip and then try rooting ?

That's all, no VIBE UI version.

Summarise the situation of p1c72 (3GB):
1) with the p1c42 ROM (who I have installed now) that is UPDATABLE by ota but NOT rootable (for the moment).
2) with the original ROW ROM (for example that http://chinagadgetsreviews.blogspot.it/2015/11/download-latest-android-lollipop-51_16.html) I CAN'T update by OTA (I did it but the google services have stopped working) but IS ROOTABLE. It's all correct? :)
That is correct .
P1C72_V2.8_1535_5.394.1_5.1.1 is rootable
Any P1C72_V2.8.... is rootable
The P1C72_V2.9.... it is not.

Seems to me you have original P1a42 with 2 GB RAM

Does NFC work in your phone ?

Correct, my phone is official EU distribution with 2GB RAM, P1a42.

NFC did not testet yet, had no reason to use it. But I will test it for you.
