Rooting a Storm - Wileyfox Storm

I've been a mod head for many years and just got my Storm after many happy HTC years. I was just wondering is worth rooting the Storm as it is already running a customised OS. Any thoughts please?

I recomend you rooting . It is simple. Now we have TWRP so i believe custom roms like DU and others will be availble soon AS for now you can choose between COS 12.1.1 (Lollipop) and CM13(marshmallow) and i believe cm12.1 (lollipop). Shotly i recomend rooting.

Do you have to increase the size of the system partition to install CM13 (marshmallow) or simply flash the latest CM13 recovery and nightly for the storm(kipper) device.

You dont need to repartition. I recomend flash TWRP and then cm13, because i've had some problems with Cyanogen recovery

OK thanks, I already have TWRP installed, so you can easily install the latest cm13 nightly using TWRP recovery, then an applicable gaps package.

Do you have drivers for the storm. If so post a link

[Q] How to Upgrade to Lollipop from CM12 (Tmobile D801)

I have a D801 (Tmobile G2) and I’ve been running CM11 on it for over a year.
Now that we have lollipop, I want to upgrade to a ROM based on the official Lollipop release, (this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-g2/development/rom-tmo-lp-extreme-v1-0-4-16-15-t3084681)
Ofcourse I’m rooted and have a custom recovery installed, specifically ClockworkModv6.0.5.0/Philz Touch 6.48.4)
Can anyone please guide me on how to install the Lollipop ROM mentioned above. I’m thinking the first step would be to update my recovery to a TWRP recovery…. How do I do that?

And then I just flash the Lollipop based rom? Even though I'm on CM11 (kitkat)?

That depends, you might need the latest bootstack for the new CAF-based roms, but not everyone seems to agree. I would flash it anyway though, this would prevent any issues like sound bugs and anything else you might find.

Question for roms on the sm-t530nu

Hello I'm new to the tab 4 t530nu and I recently updated / rooted and wanted to know what good stable roms are available for it?
What stable roms have you tried if you own this tablet?
Thanks!

I have the T530NU as well. First you'll want either TWRP or Philz (CWM touch) custom recovery. Then:
--Stock TW 5.0.2 Deodexed
--Cyanogenmod 12.1
--BlissPop 3.4 (based off CM 12.1)
--PAC Rom LP (hasn't been updated in a while)
I personally would recommend BlissPop 3.4, it's like CM 12.1 but with a lot more customization options, I really like it a lot. Unless you prefer touchwiz in which case go with that first one

Tegra note 7 Lolipop how to root

First of all Lolipop works nice but damn tablet should work like that 2 years ago... anyway i need help how to root Lolipop 5.1 because supertool 2.7 and 3.0 don't see tablet. Thanks, have nice day.
You need to get into recovery mode with a recovery version that allows the installation of unsigned zips. Then get the latest SuperSu.zip and install that from the recovery mode.
https://download.chainfire.eu/740/SuperSU
Get the Beta if available.
Hi! I just got the Note 7 and have done the OTA to 5.1.
So now I wish to upgrade this tablet to the max! Basically - Root+ Custom ROM+ custom kernel.
Please recommend where to proceed and things to install. Do we have any custom Lollipop ROMs/kernels yet? Or atleast root? and for Root which recovery to install for 5.1?
Thanks!

Only root at the moment. Here is the TWRP Recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2586432
Flash the latest superSu
For custom roms/kernels you are out of luck right now, because:
1. there are no custom roms, yet(not even for older android versions)
2. the latest custom kernel is only compatible with kitkat.
So you will have to wait for those to be updated/released.

InnJoo ONE 3G HD 5.1 (Lollipop) root/custom recovery

I had rooted my InnJoo ONE 3G HD device running 4.4 (KitKat) using KingoRoot android app.
A few days ago I updated my device to official 5.1 (Lollipop) ROM.
After that I tried rooting using KingoRoot android app, but it doesn't work anymore.
I understand that with 5.0/5.1 (Lollipop) Google introduced an extra layer of security that essentially disallows all exploit based rooting methods.
The only way around, so far has been modding the kernel or using a custom recovery.
I can't seem to find any custom recovery for InnJoo ONE 3G HD 5.1 (Lollipop).
Also, there are no modded kernels for InnJoo ONE 3G HD at all.
I was wondering if pushing any custom recovery with MTK Droid Tool would work or not.
The only problem I see is losing IMEI info.
So, the question is, does anyone know about a method for rooting InnJoo ONE 3G HD 5.1 (Lollipop).
Or, does anyone have a custom recovery for InnJoo ONE 3G HD 5.1 (Lollipop).
Hope all InnJoo ONE fans find a solution for this soon
i am trying to root it as we speak but all tried failed miserably XD
this update seems unrootable for the time being
Root & recovery for innjoo one lollipop update will be released soon... Recovery needs some final touch, stay tuned

All zip roms I have downloaded from InnJoo website for InnJoo One 3G HD has all errors while extracting. Is anyone else having the same issues?
None of the roms i downloaded from innjo gave me errors while extracting
Using 7z or winrar latest version to exract them
If you continue to get errors then its coming from your pc ... Try another pc for a change and use 7z to extract

Kitkat 4.4 is good for Innjoo One in terms of battery, otherwise Lollipop is also good but battery problem is there. However, you can install a CM 12.1 custom rom by @EnerJon which is very good in battery timing. I am using it.
Can some one please reupload the recovery since the OP link doesn't work any more..
Here it is

Flashing Any Latest Miui ROM Update Through TWRP

I'm on Miui 8.1 Global version rooted, Unlocked Bootloader ,
can I flash Developers rom through TWRP? Without clean flash? Or Does it require clean flash for flashing developers rom on rooted / unlocked bootloader devices,
If I can dirty flash miui global to miui developers through TWRP, will my data gets deleted or wiped ?

It's always better to clean flash dev ROM if you're on stable ROM

Those are increments.. they can only be flashed through stock or "zcx twrp" which does not exist for our device

No need. Download fastboot rom. Unzip that zip (tgz) file. Go to fastboot mode. Click on flash all except storage. Nothing will get erased. That's better than installing through TWRP

If you're planning to flash incremental OTAs, you should flash the stock recovery. It's easier that way as it takes less data and eases the OTA update process but at the same time you'd end up switching recoveries if you need to flash other custom ROMs
