Identifying phone version for recovery

I dont really have experience in rooting and such with phones, but I successfully rooted my g2. Now I wish to install cmw, but I have problems understanding which version is suited for me. My software version is D80210-ISR-XX. Which isnt really helping me figuring out what to download.

Go to this link http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2449670 and follow the thread

Your phone's model number is D802 whereas I have ATT so I have the D800. Remember that number before flashing ANYTHING and be sure its compatible with your variation. That will save you from a very expensive paperweight..

Is it not possible to have multiple variations of D802?

New root method... Supposedly

So I just came across this tweet from droidx - https://youtu.be/QicDqTKb_sU supposedly this root method will work with any android phone 5.1.1 or lower. Lots of caution needed here due to the origin and amount of permissions needed, but he did show it rooting a Verizon note 4. I have the apk but haven't tried it as I'm using a prerooted image and haven't flashed back to stock.
http://www.kingroot.net
UPDATED INFO (5/13/15)
1) English version is available here through XDA (LINK);
2) This is a temporary root that doesn't survive a reboot (this is due to write protection); and
3) A permanent root solution (for the Note 4) is being worked on off of XDA (due to some thread circumstances) (reference is here).
Right now there is no word of anyone working on a Droid Turbo permanent root solution.
New perma-root discussion for the Note 4 is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=60713495
Update (5/18/15)
1) There is a new script out that will delete kinguser and install supersu instead! The link is here. Keep in mind that this script will need to be modified for our device, but according to the script authors it should be applicable.
2) It has been recommended to soft reboot the device using this app from the play store. There are a million of these type of apps available, but this one is being used on the Note 4 side.

Tried installing and Android warned me of "code that attempts to bypass Android security" text box and I clicked don't install.

Download the version directly from their website. I'm going to remove the English site link.
The official version doesn't have that issue.

I forwarded over to @JustinCase but he doesn't have time to dig into it.

Of course it attempts to bypass Android security, it's an app that gives you root.

Do you know if you can install xposed with this or do you still need a system image with xposed pre-installed?

I just read a ton of the note 4 thread, and many people had to try a few times to get it to work. Supposedly this is just a temp root method on devices with write protection. If you do get root, try a reboot and see if it sticks.

I'm not sure if this method in it's current form gets us anything over what we have now but it could lead to more.

Mine failed too

I've heard enabling allow mock locations might be necessary.
They are working on a perm method but nothing yet. This is very interesting.
FYI this doesn't install SuperSU or let it be installed.

Yeah, temp root. No write permissions.

Anyone try this with flashfire http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3075433

I have root haven't tried xposed
---------- Post added at 04:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:49 AM ----------
I confirm doesn't survive reboot also

So what's the point if write protection is still on?

I don't believe this kind of sites

tried the app and the pc app method.. both didtn work for the droid turbo. now im thinking they stole some info.

Have you enabled dev ops? Got adb and Fastboot on your computer? You have to OEM unlock your bootloader first...and it is gonna completely wipe everything to factory... After that....you will be good to go
****For the record****

That's just it it's recovery but it's not like custom recovery which is what you're after that's only done once you go into fastboot OEM unlock the bootloader and then Flash TWRP... That's the recovery you're looking for and it's not a factory option

Although I'm using TMobile variant, It's pretty much the same process as on 6.0+
The easiest way is to download Xposed installer then flash the framework via recovery within the app itself

Yea only issue with root on this device is you have to wipe the device in order to apply it

This is a good way to get stuck in a boot loop do not install xposed ona us996 this way!

Ok not a boot loop. But it took around 20 mins to boot.

Can confirm this is still a problem today. It looks like nothing is happening for about 20 minutes but then it switches to "Android is starting 78%"

Root for the ZTE Maven 3.

For a long time I've been subscribed to a thread regarding the matter but recently it has become very inactive. Anyways, does anyone have a root method for it? If you don't at the moment could you help a lot of people out and try to figure out a method to root it? (There are a lot of people looking for a root method for this device)

I agree. This phone is by no means perfect, but root and all things that follow would improve it greatly.

I second your request. Help. Please. Anyone?

Sorry for not replying I have recently figured out how to access the recovery mode so here is what you do...
First you Power Off your device
Second you boot up your device but instead of just pressing power you need to press and hold the volume up button and keep holding it until your screen goes black then you should be in recovery mode
P.S. if you want to get it with adb commands just do adb reboot recovery
All we need to do now is figure out how to unlock the bootloader. With adb commands you need to eaither download Android SDK or go to the XDA thread with a quick installer of the drivers. Link to thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2588979
Another thing if you want to get into Factory Test Mode(FTM Mode) instead of holding volume up hold volume down.

Hope this helps towards rooting the device!
