ZTE Z982 blade z max (ROOT)

[djc619]

No bill!

The reason that you would want to root this phone is because if you can, you will be able to turn on the S secure feature, and the phone will be on forever, do you understand what this means, ok you genius' think about this for a moment, now there you are, now you understand why we want to root this phone, consider the idea of being able to use this phone without ever, and I mean never having to pay a bill!!

Lady's and Gentlemen, I am currently working on a Root Hack for this phone the ZTE Blade (Z981 & Z982) Pro, once I have figured out the work around, I will be letting the world know, if you have any questions in the meantime about this phone, feel free to e-mail me, at: giffykard@gmail.com.

Look for the ZTE Hack soon, or Custom Rom Development soon.

Thank you,
Giffykard!!

I switched over from Metro to Cricket and now have unlimited 4G Hotspot! Me and my two daughters go through the 8gb Hotspot data from Metro in a couple of days. I switched over to Cricket because the Metro 4g lte service in my area sucked. Since then I have had unlimited Hotspot at 4g lte! It always shows 0MB used every month while my regular data is close to 200GB. I believe it has to do with the APN but regardless why it works all I know is that Cricket can't monitor my Hotspot usage! I've had it work for almost a year now. Thank you Cricket!

Does TWRP for ZTE Blade Apex 2 work?

On TeamWin website (https://twrp.me/zte/ztebladeapex2.html) a version of TWRP is offered for the ZTE Blade Apex 2. There is no download specifically for the ZTE ZBlade (Z982). Does this matter?

Others have suggested that one could produce their own copy from the source code.

What did the author have in mind?

Saw this posted by another member, can anyone confirm it's working?

ZTE Blade Z (Root)
This method works on my ZTE blade Z. Please let me know if this works on to your device too.

This guide is technically for all ZTE phones. ZTE phones are quite friendly with developers (but still can’t hit the level of Google and HTC).

Checklist:
Unlock your phone. Go to “developer option” ---- “unlock OEM”
Download TWRP and ADB tool
Install ZTE driver on computer. Yes, you would need a computer for this
How to root:
Restart your phone to bootloader (“volume down” + “battery”)
Open up your adb tool and rename TWRP as “recovery”. Drag it into the ADB toolkit and input the following command: “fastboot flash recovery recovery.img”. When finished, type “fastboot reboot” then reboot into system
Transfer SuperSU into phone’s internal memory, find the suitable SuperSU version ( SuperSU V2.64 and SuperSU V2.79)
Switch off your phone. Then press “volume up + start” to enter recovery mode
Install SuperSU by sliding it right in
Reboot, and you are all set.

I got the z982 rooted using uni and magical. Issue is I still don't have system re permissions. I've been able to port a version of twrp but none of the partitions mount. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VaIxJMJpQsdY2jdmRiaztfUWQhbCbS0w/view?usp=drivesdk

Hey could you give me instructions how you did that? Thanks.

Could you share how the steps to how you got root?

Try putting your phone into engineering mod. Reset it and hold down the 2 volume buttons it will boot up but the screen will remain blank and the little circle at the bottom will light up?

As a freelancer for Metro, and many other endeavors.. not to mention. I notice if they are as ignorant as that guy, IMMEDIATELY when I walk in the store, cause I've worked for Sprint T-Mobile Metro Verizon, Cricket, Comcast, DELL & TESLA with ELON. I guarantee this dude heard about the XDA University from and eager customer tha5t was inquisitive and fasc9inated, and treated him the same way he's treating the XDA fraternity. <3

This kind of dude will screw a customer and they wouldn't think twice about it.... SD cards, cases, DOWNGRADES, not to mention giving grandma an s22. DUDE. BIG BUTTONS LOUD SPEAKER. SHE DONT SURF THE WAVES OF THE HIGH SEAS INTERNET... past this point I'm ranting,,, but just to point out a bad apple... someone that is ignorant to the fact of the research and study here, and definitely harboring their own. PEACE. I'm listening to GOJIRA. Tried kingoroot on 982 but she's still turning her wheels and not goin anywhere. I WILL PREVAIL MWAH

By what I've found, if you want a persistent RW for the system partition, you have to edit the ztecfg image. In a hex editor there should be a line in there about bootmode. You have to change it to bootmode 3.

ZTE phones by MetroPCS and T-Mobile are not developer friendly.

Remember the ZTE Zmax Pro? Still doesn't have root. And this won't either.

metropcs zte zmax is rootable

I successfully patched my boot image in magisk.

I also sucessfully patched my recovery image in magisk as well.

Can someone point me in the right direction?
