Hi, I want to root my Homtom Zoji Z6 (MT6580 - Android 6.0) . I managed to unlock bootloader with help of this forum, then I follow instructions to run MTK Droid Tools, I connected device successfully but received ;

 --->>> Connect to device <<<---

 --- ERROR  :  --- TotalBytesPerChunk Not Found. Set default Page/Spare=2048/64 !!!
 --- Unknown ROM structure, backup NOT possible! 
ATTENTION!  File /system/recovery-from-boot.p which restore factory recovery in case of phone switching on in a normal mode Is Found!   

Too many warnings and I deter doing anything. 

• I just need root not custom recovery 
  
• Is this OK to continue just pressing ROOT on MTK Tools with out proceeding the rest of tutorial?
  

Thanks for all help,

MTK Droid Tools won't work for that chipset and Android version
Dump your firmware in scatter format using Miracle Box @ https://forum.hovatek.com/thread-13347.html and upload the scatter file and recovery.bin
Also, state the phone's Build Number

Right mate,due the time limitation I just wrote a reply to helpful peoples here.  
Below  you can find tutorial and necessary files;

TUTORIAL HOT TO ROOT A ZOJI Z6 & NECESSARY FILES 
As I an owner of an excotic device in this part of world , I wanted to root my device for known benefits of rooting -but I had no option to brick it or break it- I had limited experience on android and phone adaptation of linux on phones. So I asked help where experienced humans are collected , notorious XDA and china-devices.com is two of them .I try to port a TWRP ,but I couldn't cheat the scripts running at boot to protect root integrity of device, So in brief;

In the link you will find TWRP 3.1.1 for Homtom Zoji Z6 which is ported by mrmaz** from XDA, also instructions by me; 
       >>>>drive.google.com/open?id=0B2-w2KbX27LtdzlFM2tNYlhibTg<<<<

If something goes wrong , you can find factory roms also scatter.txt's in both those links; one is newer but I dint notice any differences >>>drive.google.com/open?id=0B2-w2KbX27LtT3psRTNjVTBPb1U<<<
              >>>>drive.google.com/open?id=0B8uH_31zxvqEWTZ6eWNCdlBsRGc<<<<

I would suggest you to learn how to use Sp Flash from this forum, lots of videos online also

Also download and load to your SD Card Supersu from>>>supersu.com/download<<<  generally latest is the best for Zoji Z6 with Android 6.0

I mentioned two methods to flash Supersu.binaries to system one is temporary, one is permanent with Sp Flash Tools
And lastly I am not responsible of your bricked Zoji's if something goes wrong , or your phone calls an nuclear silo by it self and starts a nuclear fall-out.

Suggested reading >>>forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/root-tips-rooting-cheap-chinese-t3337484<<<<

I will follow this thread and will try to answer your questions regarding beautiful and excotic Zoji's
