I tried with no luck. Phone is already rooted with the same method you mentioned. I flash the recovery image using the app, and the phone reboots to the stock recovery mode.
I'm not running the phone on a stock firmware.. Could that be the problem?

I have the SAME problem! SU ok but the phone reboots to the stock recovery.... My firmware is original... What I do now?
Sorry, but VROOT threads are being closed by the moderation team because they appear to be collecting information off of devices. So, until this method is verified to be working safely and without malware, I would advise everyone not to use this method. Please report them to the moderation team.

All thanks go to our awesome XDA-Developers, the developers at Oppo, and also to scumpicule for this working root method.
It doesn't require any alterations to the recovery system, just stick with the one that Oppo has provided.
This has only been tested on the X9076, it should theoretically work for other versions of the Find 7 as well, but please do this under your own discretion.
**Update: It has been reported that the newest Rom release of 1.2.2i or 1.2.3i and onward might not work with this root method! If this is the case, you will need to use these instructions from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53902937&postcount=10
________________________________________________________________________________
CONTINUE with these instructions if you have Rom Version: 1.2.1i, otherwise if you have updated, click on the above link ^
INSTRUCTIONS:
Download the "Find7_ROOT4.3_bbs.oppo.cn.zip" file.
** It is also available at:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2739102&highlight=find+7 **
Then Copy/Paste it in your phone on your root folder
Turn Off your phone
Simultaneously press the buttons ' power ' and 'volume down ' until you feel a vibration.
Your phone will reboot into recovery mode. ( Should be the OPPO recovery ! )
Select ' Choose English ' & Install zip file
Then choose the zip file that you have downloaded in step 1 & click "YES" to install.
Hit "Reboot" once everything is completed.
Go into app drawer and select the SuperSU app. Update the binary by selecting the "NORMAL" method.
Reopen SuperSU and make sure binary is okay.
Try downloading "Root Checker" or a app that requires root.
Congratulations, your device is now Rooted!!
________________________________________________________________________________
If you run into any errors, try updating the SuperSU binary again, or check under "NOTES" on the link above that scumpicule has posted.

HIT THE THANKS BUTTON IF THIS HAS HELPED YOU.

Were you able to get to SuperSU in the app drawer? Make sure that the binary was installed properly.
It's interesting because I was able to get it to work perfectly.
See attached photos of Root Checker.
Does not work on ColorOS 1.2.2i
I just got my Find 7 phone and after the OTA upgraded the system to 1.2.2i, when I tried to install the root file and it failed to install.
Installation Failed
No luck. Failed at the zip file installation part. Please let me know if you have any solution. Thanks. Cheers.:cyclops:

I'm having the same problem. When installing the zip from Oppo Recovery, it fails immediately every time. Tried both the Find7_ROOT4.3 and the Find7_GSM4.3 files. Any suggestions?
I think that after the update to 1.2.2i, the root might not work anymore. For all those that don't have it working, can you confirm if you have the 1.2.2i Rom version?
Sent from my X9076 using XDA Free mobile app
Good news!
I have found the Rooting method and instructions for Rom version 1.2.2i
It should work for every Oppo Find 7 and 7a (not confirmed) with any system (till 1.2.2i at least).
In the end system, bootloader and recovery will be intact - > stock rooted.
WORKING ON: x9077, x9076, x9006 (confirmed by #Oiler)
(NOTE):
Android SDK is required (which gives ADB and FASTBOOT files), if you have these files already on your computer, then you can just download TWRP, STOCK RECOVERY (oppo), and SUPERSU.
All the files are located below:
Preparation:
1. Phone with at least 30% battery.
2. Install Oppo drivers from "OPPO Driver" phone partition.
3. Download and unzip: AndroidSDKSlim - https://mega.co.nz/#!SEhFXbzL!Xy4PrX_NKFnAZvPaggQL-1Vw1PESzRCyqXiPrMlvWVM
4. Download: TWRP - https://mega.co.nz/#!gF0GhBzT!HGaWCcQfqr_ns2z7ZEIeeF-0KvXFliEOAFZ_Z-wHcdw and put it in "platform-tools" folder wich u get from zip above. (img file)
5. Download: Stock Recovery - https://mega.co.nz/#!rVQWXKhD!Ljy9pw_sy0VlKzxqJwuD4UoZGMwF_dOmOYWgR1mMRc4 Mod or Stock Recoveryhttp://ge.tt/2EQ5h2m1/v/0?c *2 and put it in "platform-tools" folder. (img file)
6. Download: SuperSU - http://download.chainfire.eu/451/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.01.zip?retrieve_file=1 and put it on phone internal storage. (do not unpack)
Changing Recovery Menu:
1. Turn Off phone.
2. Press Volume UP + Power
3. Now u should see small discription on screen: fastboot
5. Plug the phone to PC.
4. Open command prompt inside "platform-tools" folder -> press SHIFT + Right Mouse Click, pick open command prompt here.
5. Write:
Code:
fastboot devices
6. You should see:
Code:
"your phone product code" Dartmoor
7. If you don't see your device listed, make sure drivers are installed properly. Next, write:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-x9077.img
after few second you should see OKAY. (No need to turn off phone) *1
Rooting the phone:
1. Power off the phone.
2. Hold volume DOWN and the POWER button to get into the TWRP Recovery.
3. Pick install and find the SuperSU zip file, confirm the flash.
4. Reboot the phone. (cash and davlik wipe not nessesary)
5. Phone is now rooted. (Check if there is working SuperSU app. Update binary if needed.)
Restoring stock Recovery Menu:
1. Power off the phone.
2. Press Volume UP + Power
3. Open command prompt on your PC inside "platform-tools" folder -> press SHIFT + Right Mouse Click, pick open command prompt here.
4. Write:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery x9077-official-recovery-mod.img
after few second you should see OKAY.
5. REBOOT, or turn off phone by pressing POWER for 3 sec.
6. Check Recovery Menu (Volume DOWN + Power)
____________________________________________________________________
NOTES:
*1 turning off after installing Recovery Mod is unnecessary, this is because the phone won't startup automatically into the installed Recovery Mod.
*2 Stock Recovery is provided as genuine by #Zeus (Oppo Official Staff). The other one - Stock Recovery Mod is provided by #Kedros which have removed checking of Oppo system (provides possibility to install custom files like roms or SuperSU etc.). #Kedros confirmed that OTA update is still available on it.

Yes. Mine is 1.2.2i
Same for me on the version number. 1.2.2I I was hoping the process would be easier. Oh well.
The link to the TWRP recovery is down. I tried to download it in every possible way, but I always get an error. WHen I click download once I get to MEGA, it is saying "temporary error, retrying". Please fix, thanks.
Edit - NM working now, thanks just in case you fixed it.
Edit - Rooted phone, left TWRP on if I ever go to CM11s. Had to do a few things diffrent than what you said, but got it to work. Thanks

Total newbie. Could you explain preparation step 2 to me? (2. Install Oppo drivers from "OPPO Driver" phone partition.)
Will this method work with version 1.2.3i?
Many thanks.
Hey, yes the method should work for the most recent version as well. When you plug in your phone to you pc, it prompts you install the drivers from OPPO, just continue and install them.
If you don't see "Developer Options" in your settings ( in "More" ) then go into "About Phone" and click on "Build number" 5 times until you receive a message indicating that developer options is enabled.
Then plug in your phone and see if the drivers get updated. This process has been tested to work on Windows 7.

Thanks. Just waiting to find the time to try. I'll post the result.
Thanks again.
One more thing, you'll have to enable "USB Debugging" in developer options, then try plugging the phone in again.

Hi,
Thanks a lot for your help.
Though I'm pretty sure I've followed your instructions to the letter the phone would fail to install the update.SuperUser file so I can't get to get it rooted.
Any idea, suggestion, tip etc, will be much appreciated.
Thanks
How far were you able to get to? Any errors or freezing? What version of Rom are you on?
Hey guys,
I'm in the process of flashing CM's Marshmallow onto my LG G3s (D722) however after successfully rooting using KingRoot I can't seem to be able to apply the necessary bootloader patch as the /dev/block folders and contents are completely missing. Anyone have any suggestions? I installed a kdz lollipop stock room to begin the process if it helps.
heyy
you can you help me?
I have the CM13 but the root was not well and using the kingroot but is dont working .
as you did with the kingroot ?
sorry for the inconvenient
Hey,
I flashed a stock ROM (make sure you download the right one for your model/IMEI) via LG Flash Tool and then used Kingroot, be sure you haven't downloaded KingoRoot by mistake, it's not the same app as it just installs a heap of apps on your phone and does nothing but tell you it's failed after.
I'm still stuck with the bootloader patch though :s
There is a thread with all the info about this phone, tells you the right way to patch boot
Hi,
I figured out what the problem was, the thread you mention doesn't cater for my specific issue. Which I had hoped for a response about, however incase others have this same issue I'll list the process I went through here to resolve my issue and correctly root, patch and flash the D722;
1: Install Kingroot on your phone with your data connection active and let it try to root your phone, if it fails proceed to the next steps. Otherwise skip to step 3
THINGS TO DOWNLOAD: (If initial root attempt fails)
Download & install LG Flash tool on your PC.
Download & install Unified Android Toolkit (Optional, but useful for mass installation of aps)
Search for the correct KDZ file for your phone model/IMEI HERE
Install Busybox on your phone
Install Flashify on your phone
2: With your phone in download mode Flash your downloaded ROM using the LG Flash tool in CSE mode and click start, ignore language settings and any error messages. It should proceed as normal.
3: Follow the instructions for patching the bootloader HERE. If it fails proceed to step 4.
NOTE: The root location of your external SD card may be in a different directory, for example like mine it was in /storage/external_SD/ so try to change the file location in the command before proceeding.
4: Download and install CWM ROM Manager on your device (use Unified Android Toolkit to do this if you don't have/want gapps). Then choose fix permissions and repeat step 3.
5: Flash twrp via Flashify.
6: Download your desired ROM and place it in the root of your SD card, reboot to recovery.
7: Install the ROM as usual via TWRP, remember to wipe dalvic etc.
If mods would like me to post this as a guide instead I'll gladly do so!
