I am at work on a work computer and it wont let me install the samsung drivers. I am on stock mf9 and i am trying to obtain root via CF auto root. I downloaded mobile odin pro but it wont let me open it due to not having root already lol. Does anyone have any suggestions to try and get my phone rooted from my phone?
As you already noted the tools that would allow you to do the necessary things on your phone require root to work. You are going to have to root using a computer that you have admin privileges on.

Hello,
I have nexus 7, and I would like to teach him to tether wifi.
I know that at first I have to root it, and I have no idea how.
And I also know that after rooting, I have to flash something. And I also have no idea how.
I can't find any full manual how to do it. Can anyone help me please?
Some apps will tether without root here's a link to one, but there are others you can try. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.foxfi

Hi, I have already tried some of these apps, but none worked for me. I have tried this one too, wifi is working, but when I am trying to connect with my mac, it says no internet connection, and when I am trying to connect with my android phone, it always says: connecting, or obtineing IP…

Hey all OUYAins!
So recently I updated my OUYA to Chickcharney and lost root access *cue crying*
I tried installing RootMyOuya1.1 by WonderEkin but it didn't install. So I snooped around for different rooting methods such as ReRoot script by Eldon McGuiness (You can take a look at his script here).
The method that worked perfectly fine for me was to download a piece of software called Kingo (here). Simply download and install it and connect your OUYA to your computer via USB and click Start Root. Wait for the software to root your OUYA and it will eventually reboot. You should now have SuperSU installed with root access!
I hope this thread helps anyone having difficulty with getting root access on Chickcharney!
I'm assuming the device needs to already have been rooted prior to trying Kingo ROOT? I just got my system on Thursday and since I'm new it forced me to download the Chickcharney update and I can't figure out what the best way is to root my OUYA.
i just got one on friday and the same thing it updated automatically
i use this to root my system it still works
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2350900
my ouya was rooted before the update. yesterday I tried Kingo and it said "already rooted", but I had no root permission. So I clicked "root again" and after a minute or so my ouya was rooted again properly.
Thanks Sn0wdune

I tried that to root it but it said it couldn't find the Ouya. I'm running the latest update Chickcharney on mine. Do I need to wipe it to run the root?

Well not neccessarily. It should still work in any case!

That's odd. Are you sure you have your OUYA connected via USB properly and the drivers are correctly installed?

The driver's wouldn't install because I had to turn off driver signing. I got it working after that with Ouya Toolbox root... even though it was crashing part way through. I had to run the TEST version of Ouya Toolbox and just forced the root and I guess it was fine because it appears to be rooted.
MOD EDIT @gregbradley
Also, users should be aware that Kingo root sends your IMEI to an unknown IP address in china during the root process, you have been warned. For more information read the whole OP here
Getting ROOT rights to Android 5.0 Lollipop (KingRoot) It is not my work. Taken from a russian forum.
1.Download and install latest version of Kingroot to phone.
2.Run the application and get the Root. Important - do not restart the device, because it can lead to failure in obtaining Root.
3.Enable "USB debugging" and "unknown sources".
4.Install the latest version from the PC XZDualRecovery to get full access to reading and writing to the section System (connect your phone to a PC via a cable, run the install.bat to select a number " 1 "on the screen to confirm a request for superuser)
5.Phone will reboot automatically to recovery. Install supersu.
6.Boot
Files to root.

I've been waiting for a one click root, but everything I'm reading says this is really sketchy and no one is quite sure what it is doing.
Can anyone confirm working on Z3?
For which phone? T-Mobile?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Kingo root is not the same as this, which is King Root?

Yes they are the same ...
Well, I couldnt resist. I've now got a working root with SuperSU, and have removed all I can find of the KingRoot app.
So far, seems to be working well.
Someone else tried it?

Were you able to remove KingUser and install SuperUser?

Yes I believe so. I have the Kinguser icon in my app draw, but It wont open. I deleted all files associated with King via ES Root Explorer, and cannot find anything.
I still wouldn't recommend anyone else doing this, god knows what information was sent to China upon installing it, but I really wanted root.

I tried that, it needs internet connectivity. However, the reason I allowed this was I understand that this root is based on a Ping exploit, which would need internet connecivity to work.
I figured the risk werent THAT high for me. I dont re-use passwords and no bank details stored on my phone.
Can confirm this method works.
You might want to try going in Airplane mode if you're paranoid for the Chinese. In any case, Kingroot + XZDR + SuperSU 2.49 works perfectly.
It works for me I can confirm now.I have root on lollipop locked bootloader so nice haha ? thanks

Not yet will do tomorrow, now I accidentally cleared the data of kinguser and now any app can't recognize root on my devices although it's installed, it says root denied, but şu binaries are installed, I will try tomorrow the recovery after school, if it really works I will release my ultimate sound mod I'm working since months and ofc I can test it myself and don't need any testers hope the pc cam.recognize the root on my.device and install the .bat files
Any solution for sprint to tether without root?
I am on MM now and need to tether, but I am willing to root once a non experimental root exists.
Until then i need a no root way, foxfi fails so that's a no go.

Without root, you can use Clockworkmod Tether to tether via USB. I don't know of a way to wifi-tether without root and without the entitlement.
Good Luck
