Can I root my Cube Talk7x (U51GT-C8) without installing new ROM? I need to root my device:


Device name: Cube Talk7x (U51GT-C8)
CPU: MT8392 (quad-core)
Android version: 4.4.2 Kitkat
Kernel version: 3.4.64


The reasons for rooting:


I want to use APP2SD with external SD card (on my previous device, which was rooted, I've swapped /storage/sdcard0 and /storage/sdcard1)
I want to mount it with SSHFS (it works, but SSH server can't access external SD card)


I have no MS-Windows machine, but if it's necessary, I can borrow one.
ern0, there is a website that has a download to root this device and it looks like you can do it from the device itself.

If you download http://www.jellydroid.com/framaroot-1-9-0-apk/Framaroot-1.9.0.apk and install it then select install “SuperSU“ and select an exploit in list to potentially root your device as “Barahir” and proceed further.

You should see a success message and then reboot. Hope this works for you.
