Is there a particular version of SuperSU that is recommended?
Also, may I post your directions (giving you credit) on other ASUS forums?
In my case, I use
Code:
BETA-SuperSU-v2.74-2-20160519174328-forced-systemless.zip
because many rooting tutorial for mt6737 use it.
I have no idea about this.

Well, I've installed Ubuntu 16, Android SDK, NDK, Java 7 and 8 and ....... nothing.
I finally got the script to run, but it doesn't "build" anything on screen like the video you posted. I don't get errors or crashes and it goes to the Adb Shell. From the shell, when I try to access any of the normally blocked directories I still get "permission denied".
Either I have done something wrong, or it will not work on my phone.
I'm not an Ubuntu/Linux guy so i could have done something incorrectly.
Any help or advice is appreciated.

Hmm... I have really have no idea for your case...
I use Ubuntu for my main framework. So, I simply run the script with terminal
The process will download Dirty Cow and install it to your phone via adb.
Remember you need to type
in terminal for ADB detection. If your Linux not detect yet (unsuccessfully) , you need install
udev and
android tool adb
Google search for Udev. and Android Tool Adb can install with
Code:
sudo apt-get install android-tools-adb android-tools-fastboot
Then, you need to restart udev service and adb sevice.
Code:
sudo service udev restart
Code:
sudo adb kill-server && adb start-server
Type again
If terminal show like this
Code:
# adb devices
List of devices attached
015d2d426d640c1a device
Ok! it's detected. You need to grant adb permission on your phone. Then, you run script via terminal.
If anything work. You have
Code:
root@[device_name] $
You just mount /system and push file into.
I also own a X008D that i've been trying to root. Following the same steps of dirty cow, i get to the point where i should be getting root, but i'm still seeing shell@[device_name]. From what i read in other places, it could be that selinux is blocking me from getting root. Very sad.

Yes, very sad. For whatever reason, Asus (and MTK) seem to have made this phone extremely difficult to do anything with. I have a CS-Tool dongle that should be arriving today or tomorrow that I hope will allow me to pull data from the phone. I am hoping that data can be used by someone smarter than me to help develop root/recovery for this thing.
UPDATE: CS-Tool arrived and........................... It can't read dRam on a locked bootloader phone! Wasted $50.00 >
i have 2 a Orange's phones "Tecno N9", they are the same , but the one is dead (i've flashed it with wrong firmware, and his preloader is dead) and the one another is in live, here is info :

-- i can't find firmware from anywhere, and also can't root or find twrp or cwm recovery compatible with this phone, Do you have an idea , thank you
Just to add some info I discovered,
I got the same error message the OP did when he tried flashing the recovery.img using SP flash tools, even if I had unlocked bootloader already, so it's not a matter of the bootloader. (I am unrooted though, on stock rom. My VOLUP button worked during unlocking).
My phone is a 6737m as well, running 7.0. I actually used your modified scatter file (exactly the same, no modifications on my end) to read back my boot, recov, and system img. Boot and recov img seem to be correct after I unpacked them both. No Idea yet for system.img if its correct. I have yet to flash them back to my phone to verify if they all work.
While I have yet to try the dirtycow, I am looking first into flashing a modified boot.img that didnt reflash recovery.img every boot, then flashing a twrp image that I ported, and then using supersu.zip through twrp to root it.
Can somebody help me port twrp for Leagoo M6 (MT6737M) ?
