It should be nearly possible to root every Android smartphone or tablet but that doesn’t necessarily mean there is a rooting method made available for the device that you bought. Rooting methods are discovered and then tools are brought out to help you get root access and all of that takes work from some clever developers. Not having any of those developers looking out for your device can spell disaster if you were hoping to gain those administration rights over your internal system.

Luckily for Lenovo A806 Golden Warrior A8 device owners, that is not the case this time around, and we do have developers who have created a rooting method running on Android 4.4.2 Kitkat software updates.
