Kyocera Hydro Vibe
Root and Review
This Review is brought to you by Troy Foxxin via YouTube and gives a great overview of how to root your Kyocera Hydro Vibe as well as some basic functionality of the phone itself.
I Recently got my first real BRAND new Android phone. All my past ones where used, and put out a couple years ago or more. After selling my Nexus S. I used the money to buy a Kyocera Hydro Vibe which was 50% off at the time from Virgin Mobile.
For me the phone works great. The phone was Released May of 2014. At the time of this video I saw no guides on how to Root the phone mostly due to it being so new. I took a gamble on a program I came across called Root Genius. I was kinda scared the whole time it was running, It has no listing (in English anyways) of what phones it works on. None the less it reported that it Rooted the phone and the phone rebooted and loaded up normally.
However Root Checking apps said it was not rooted and attempting to install Superuser from Play Store would only crash when you tried to run superuser. So i tried SuperSU which did all the updates needed, and now the Root Checking apps show the phone is indeed Rooted. I've been able to remove all of the bad apps forced on to it and run other programs that need Root Permissions. So I am even more happy with my new phone!
