You can try Towelroot but if that doesn't work there is a CF-Auto-Root solution for that model
Here is a thread I made that has links and info for all known root methods

Which root method did you use?
In any case none of these root methods are my work, I'd recommend checking in the threads linked for your particular root method.

I recall there was an issue with using the SU that came from the play store and that you should try to get the SuperSU binary directly from Chainfire's site.

Unroot possible?
After using this method, is it possible to unroot?
In case the tablet needs to be sent back to Sony, they won't touch it if they see root enabled.

On the Z phones a simple factory reset by the pc companion would do fine in removing anything that could harm the warranty

I rooted my Verizon variant with this method and all seems to work ok, had to run it twice however. Installed duel recovery after and making a backup now. All seems to work ok so far. Only thing I've mainly tried is root explorer and it gained SU rights and tested renaming an apk in the system files and worked fine.

That's great news. I mostly want to just debloat. With dual recovery, can we install ROMs should they ever become available?

Okay I have root I used the v10 easy root. Do I just flash dual recovery even though it clearly stats an unlocked bootloader is needed? I don't flash files if I am not sure of their compatibility. Thanks.

Most antivirus does that - you'll have to disable the antivirus temporarily to use the exploit.
ive tried rooting my galaxy note 4 sm-n910f version by the guide here and it worked ive had superSU installed and used root required apps.
then for some reason after a week or so ive noticed that my phone isnt rooted anymore how can that be? ive check via "Root checker basic" app from the playstore and it says the device is not rooted.
and the superSU app is gone aswell.
ive tried to root it again 3 more times and it seems not to work...
what can be the problem?
Did you take an ota by any chance? That's all I can think of, if you did you might have to Odin stock again before you reroot

Be aware that kingroot sends your IMEI number to an IP address in china. Only use this is you are happy with that
You have been warned.

"You don't have permission to access this page. "
Also works on 690 sw version.
After reboot i still got root access.
No downgrade needed, i only installed kingroot.
Did just a short test with titanium, seems to work fine.
As now its already 2 am here, ill look into it tomorrow when im at work.
Thanks for sharing that information.
doesn't work completely. Su Binary semi-working (root access granted, but titanium for example doesn't show user apps. also nut recovery cannot be installed, as the installer doesn't know kingroot su.) and building up an internet connection to china.
How to change the language?
Can you tell me how to change the king root language to English. So i can able to do task.

Well, i don't see your point now.
You can just root using the KingRoot payload and then replace kingroot with supersu, since you have writeaccess to system.
I'd installed King Root on a 23.1.A.0.726 - got root with it, installed dualrecovery, falshed the same FW as prerooted, removed king root and use now supersu
Very easy and short way.
Edit: forget what i said, didnt work

There are multiple threads right here in the forums that offer step to step instructions for rooting your model of grand prime. Use the search function and you'll find them.
Root is similar to having administrator rights on your computer, it allows deeper levels of modification than is available on an unrooted device. There are apps available that will allow you to transfer your apps to SD card also, however most, if not all require root.

You will have to unroot your device before updating, you may then be unable to root again for some time until a new method is found.
However there are custom ROMs available for you device amongst other things.
I invite you to read through the forums for more information

Well, if you have TWRP you can just flash SuperSU flashable zip[ a guaranteed successful root with a very easy way plus if you have phone with marshmallow and above kingroot won't able to root because of new anti-root protection added so normal/kingroot won't work]
The best way to root G530H is flashing this by odin. Link here. http://d-h.st/oqFc. After flashing it flash any recovery by odin.

You have to prepare for get to recovery quickly after flashing as if you didnt manage to go to recovery the phone will reset the recovery back to stock
