Hi Lads
I'm new to all this rooting and updating of Mobile phones, however I have recently purchased a Sony Smartwatch 3 and need to install Android wear on my phone.
But surprise surprise play-store says it's not compatible with my device. So at the moment my watch can't even tell me the time (useless).
So the question i'm asking is what are my options? Is there a ROM available that has Android 4.4 for the Kazam Thunder Q45? (I only need it to install one program)
Or should I just go buy a new phone with 4.4?
So far I have rooted the phone with Framaroot. I have also followed the TWRP Manager but the phone is not listed.
Please help guys.

Hello!I buyed HTC Dream G1 on ebay with installed Android 1.6 (DONUT) on it. I heard that now there are android versions 2.x and i need to have so versions to install most of apps. Please, write my some instructions what should i do to update my device. (1...,2...)I have seen a lots of modifications of roms in your forum but i don't understand nothing about this.
Also I should add : I live in eastern europe (bulgaria) /because i heard that there re some US roms or.../
p.s. i'm so nooby because i migrate from windows mobile phone 6.0 ))
There are many, many posts here on getting 'root' on your phone to allow updates to custom ROMs, though many are geared toward US or UK phones, so it would help to know what carrier your phone is from originally.
Another new user just asked a very similar question, and there are a few links you can check from that thread.
From what I've seen, if you don't have a US or UK phone, you'll probably want to search these forums for "G1 one click root", "exploid" or "goldcard".
And congratulations on your upgrade away from Windows Mobile.
I cannot find any proper information on whether or not the GT-I9295 can be rooted or not. Googling gives me all kinds of webpages dated back in late August claiming that it can be done, but I've also come across a lot of pages saying it's not possible to root the GT-I9295 using the instructions for the AT&T version of the S4 Active.
I hoped the xda forum would give me more info, but no... unfortunately not.
Has anyone got any help to offer me on this matter? Can it be rooted? If so, anyone got a proper working howto to link to?
Thanks in advance.

Super thanks for this guide, whizz Worked like a charm. I had already taken a quick look at this very guide a few days ago, but was afraid to try it, because it was using the CF-Auto-Roo for the I9505, and I was a little scared it might break my phone.
To be honest, there should be a sticky on confirmed (working) root procedures for the I9295. I've had a hard time finding proper information on this. Not only in this forum, but elsewhere on the net was well.
FYI I tried the geohot a couple of weeks ago, but it didn't work on my phone.
Unless there's something funky with the device, activeroot (so named for a reason) should root any Samsung Galaxy S4 Active in a second or two at most, any variant produced so far. If you got rooted without it, fantastic but activeroot should have worked without a single issue on a stock ROM... interesting.
Only thing it's not working with right now is 4.3 based stuff, and maybe if we're lucky geohot will drop an updated activeroot at some point, at least that's my hope since we have the 4.3 pre-release ROM for our AT&T I537 variant now to play with.
But then again, 4.3 does make some changes to things, and with Samsung pushing Knox on end users pretty hard, we could be approaching a time where rooting a device - let alone unlocking the bootloader - might become just another thing of the past.

Geohot's root is only for the i537, this thread was about the international version that can't use the geohot root.

Good evening for you all.
I'm an absolute newcomer to Huawei, as I had Motorola devices since 2014 :silly: I hope to adapt fast to this new device
For now, I want to start slowly. I found the device I bought is currently on Android 5.0.1, and found there is a way to update it to Android 6.0 officially. However, the tutorials what I could find on internet went into a death path, as the websites or files doesn't exist.
I'm currently using an ALE-L21, Compilation ALE-L21C40B181. I found there are differences between compilations and things like that, so... can someone bring me a hand with this? :victory:
Thanks in advance
Note: I found the phone is already Rooted. Curious thing.
