How to Root MyPhone My33 and Install CWM recovery

Finally we made Rooting Procedure and Flashing  CWM recovery for MYphone My33. In this tutorial I have 3 method for Rooting. It's up to you of what you prefer. Just try the first method if not work proceed the 2nd and 3rd method.

Warning! Rooting can void your warranty!. DO it at Your own risk!

FIRST METHOD

(HIGH RISK)

Rooting via Recovery Mode only

Pros: No need PC. Can root via  your mobile phone only!

Cons: This method is high risk and not fully tested

Requirements:

My33

Download:

Procedure:

1. Download  Android.com-root.zip and put in sdcard.

2. Go to recovery mode: (Reboot your phone and hold Power Vol up +Vol down + Power)

Then Vol up once Recovery mode appear

3.Tap install via zip then locate  Android.com-root.zip in sdcard then Install.

4. Reboot.

SECOND METHOD

(MED RISK)

Rooting via Fastboot

Pros: Medium Risk only. 

Cons: Wrong command can't work unlocking.
           Can delete all your files. you need to back up first.

Download all:

1. Adb drivers

(run exe file to load needed drivers)

2. Vcom drivers: .. (install sa pc)

3. Minimal Adb fastboot tool

(extract the file then copy to desktop)

4.CWM

5. SuperSu.zip

(copy this to your root directory of sdcard(sa labas lang ng sdcard wag sa mga folder ok)

PROCEDURE:

1) Unlock bootloader:

1.1) Boot for first time your device. I recommend to NOT register/login/add Wifi/add accounts/etc., because the unlock process DELETES all your data in the device. So to go more fast, skip all, and go directly to SETTINGS. In section ABOUT DEVICE, enable the developer options with eight time picks over “Build number”. Then in SETTINGS/DEVELOPER OPTIONS, enable the option “OEM unlocking”. Then power off.

1.2) Boot your device to Fastboot mode (hold power button and vol up) choose fastboot mode or boot into bootloader), then connect your phone to PC via USB cable. Open folder fastboot from minimal adb fastboot tool(run as administrator)

Click Run me.bat

Execute in your computer the command “fastboot oem unlock”, say YES with “vol+” and “power” buttons. Then select reboot. This ERASES completely your device (factory restore), but the bootloader will be UNLOCKED! Two reboots needed.

2) Install custom Recovery:

2.1) Download CWM recovery

 CWM RECOVERY

 copy this recovery.img inside (minimal adb fastboot tool folder)

2.2) Boot in the BOOTLOADER mode. Then execute command “fastboot flash recovery recovery.img”; 

and then “fastboot reboot”.

3) Rooting:

3.1) Copy last beta of SuperSU v2.52 to your SD Card (file BETA-SuperSU-v2.52.zip).
Click Here

3.2) Boot in the CWM with “Vol+” and “Power” buttons.

Note: CWM not toucheable to navigate use Vol up and down button (down and up) and Power button (OK)

3.3) Install ZIP from external-sd card.

3.4) Reboot and don’t select “fix root”, only “Yes”.

3.5) After boot, start SuperSU and configure it. Root done!

THIRD METHOD

(LOW RISK)

Rooting via PC and Flash via SPFT

Pros: This tested 100% by our member in My33 Group
           Can't delete file.  you don't need to backup.

Cons: USE PC

           Wrong flashing can brick your phone!
