Yes, try to root the device by using another rooting Software/exploit, try to run SU from the phone's menu manually and accept all requests on the phone's screen.

FREEGuille · 10-22-2014, 12:37

as I told u I used Vroot, kingo, and all the SU requests were permanently accepted.
see log, firstly Octopus detects phone as "ROOTED", then it cannot resolve next step because of the negative to access "without root privileges"... its a contradiction.

Octopus box · 10-22-2014, 13:58

Do the next:

1. Delete all files from the folder "c:\Program Files\Octoplus\Octoplus_Samsung\LOG\".
2. Take our SIM and SD cards from the phone.
3. Root the phone.
4. Perform the "Repair IMEI" operation again.
5. Close the Software.
6. Upload somewhere the latest created "*.log" and "*.logx" files from the folder "c:\Program Files\Octoplus\Octoplus_Samsung\LOG\" and post here links, we will check, where can be the problem with the device.
