How to root your Lenovo P770

Let's do this quick and easy! Here are some very simple steps on how to get root access on your Lenovo p770. You can finish this in just a few minutes. It work on my unit. I hope it works on yours too.

Step1.
Download Framaroot APK. [click here]
Scroll down the page and you'll see the download links. As for me, I used version 1.5.3

Step2.
Get your phone ready. 
Go to Settings > Personal > Security Setting and enable "Unknown Source"
Go to Settings > System > Developer Option and enable "USB Debugging"

Step 3.
Copy the Framaroot APK on your phone and install it.

Step 4.
Now, open the Framaroot app and select "Install SuperSU"
After that, select "Boromir"

You will then see a notification that your phone has been rooted.

Step 5.
Reboot your phone.

Step 6.
Check if you have root access by installing "Root Checker Basic" app. This app is available at Google Play Store.
Install the app and click, "verify root access". You will then see if you are actually able to root your phone.


That's it! You can now enjoy the privileges of root access. 

If you want to unroot your phone, you can run again the Framaroot App and select "unroot".
Double check again using the Root Checker Basic app.

Hope this helped :)
