How to root HDC s5 octa core

[DavyMaclean]

Hi,
Just got my HDC S5 Octa core clone last week, However I'm struggling to root it I've used Vroot and it says it's rooted however testing it with the likes of SU user and MTK droid tools etc it says phone isn't rooted there's a load of junk/bloatware that I want to get off the phone any idea's? Most of the other rooting tools don't seem to work on it. If I can get it rooted it'll be a great phone once I change out the batteries for better ones.

Hardware : MT6592
Model : SM-G9006V
Build number : error: protocol fault (no status):
Build date UTC : 20140512-132921
Android v :
Baseband v: error: device offline:
Kernel v : error: device not found:

Hello, welcome to the forum. Please see the Gizbeat 101 tutorial. If all 8 auto roots fail, then it's time to build CWM for your phone.

Next time make a backup of the original ROM first. You can find original Rom at "needrom.com"
