Just to let you all i9506 users to know. I asked from KingoApp Facebook page if their app work with my i9506 and they confirmed it should.

So I tested they latest app (1.1.15.1792) with my phone and it seems to work.

More information: http://www.kingoapp.com/

I hope this was OK to post in developement cause its so much easier to find this information from i9506 sub forum.

ok very good. Can you give me changelog? if i don't like it can i reinstall stock rom?
Changelog can be found from Kingo website and yes, you can uninstall root with KingoApp. I tried uninstall and then reinstall with my i9506 and there was nothing to complain about it.

no i mean if i install this rom and i don't like it can i install stock rom (e330sksuami2)?
This is root only. I dont know if you can install i9506XXUAMI3 on your E330s even it have pretty much same hardware and software.
But yes, you can always install stock rom over any other roms that does not have KNOX.

successfully rooted on 4.2.2 stock ROM. being a little cautious (read: paranoid:)) I tried disabling internet on the machine I was running the root program. no luck, it NEEDS an internet connection. the strange thing was that it needed to remove the drivers that windows installed 5 minutes before, and then installed its own drivers. Suspicious or not, it worked.

my experience in case this helps someone:
without internet connection, the program will not connect your device. I double checked if USB debugging was enabled, dis- and reconnected the cable but the program would NOT detect my device. Enabled WIFI on my laptop, got internet again, and it started to connect. Don't worry when this takes long, in my case it took 3 minutes to uninstall the drivers or whatever it was doing (fast win7 x64 laptop, 40Mbit internet connection).
when there finally was a connection, I just clicked on the huge ROOT button.
Then don't get worried when it says "rooting" and "testing root" several times. I'm guessing it tests several different exploits until it finds one that works. on my mobile the "rooting" and subsequent "testing root" took 3 or 4 times. It concluded with a reboot and the root software returned to the initial screen asking for a connection. I disconnected the cable before the mobile was ready again as I did not want the root program to connect to my mobile again. It seemed to take a few seconds to find my carrier information (I got slightly worried) but after 3 seconds or so there was a signal. before the root, I never noticed this delay, nor was it visible the next 2 reboots. All seems to work.

Hey!

I just rooted my device. Yeah its litle strange soft, but its doing hes job. ;) Its changed my status in download mode to"system status: custom".
I fixed this by "wanam exposed", there is settings to but system in "fake status: official" and is fixing this. I am sure if I flash stock rom, then is NO problems and everything is LEGAL status(your warranty is OK).
I am in 4.2.2 and I waiting for modifications like kernel and custom roms to take my baby to max.
Anyway, nice job for kingo app!

YOU CAN ALWAYS REROOT WITH KINGO!

Peace for all!!!
