You have to go back to stock GRI40, i.e. with a Nandroid restore?! But this will be the correct thread for you: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1055591&page=12

Hi guys
I have some problems with root on 2.3.4
Probably I can not have any permissions for programms, such as ShootMe (for examle). Do you?

That probably means your phone is no longer rooted. Download 'Root Checker' from the Market to check, but if you installed 2.3.4 ROM, your phone should be un-rooted though.

Same situation/problem
For those stock rooted but bootloader locked 2.3.3 users that previously rooting using CWM recovery to update and superuser root method.
You can root the same way...but save the trouble of fastboot recovery step via PC which novice users could be stuck on getting fastboot usb driver to work properly.
0) Just installed ROM Manager (From Market) into your phone
1) Store both 2.3.4 update.zip and SuperUser.zip into SDCard
2) Run ROM Manager
3) Activate CWM Recovery
=> Make sure recovery is installed succesfully..check ROM Manager screen which tell whether the installation is successfully done.
4) Reboot recovery from ROM Manager App
5) Follow thread #1 on the rest
6) After applying update.zip..do not reboot...do a system mount from CWM Recovery then apply SuperUser.zip ..after completing all steps..do a reboot..
Voila your 2.3.4 is installed and rooted..
Thanks, but this way comes to late for me and some other users. We've flashed the update without rooting.
And now we need another way for root ...
Quick conundrum...
Rooted my 32bg Nexus7 a couple of days ago using the Nexus 7 toolkit.
I have an unlocked bootloader and CWM recovery installed . i did the all in option in the toolkit..
Just installed Titaanium backup, and it says i'm not rooted??
Root check says i am rooted !
Busybox says i'm not rooted
Superuser fails on updating binary (root acess)
So the 64K question..
Am i rooted or not?
if not ,how do i root properly?
Mart
Srsly? Please go back and root it manually. It will work.

your problem is that you used the rootkit on a nexus device. theres no need for that.

fastboot oem unlock, fastboot flash a custom recovery, flash either the su binaries or a custom rom in your new recovery, reboot. that is all.
all you need to do is have the drivers and fastboot installed http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1741395
If you go to terminal emulator and type in su, does the $ change to a #?
Sent from my Nexus 7
If you have access to directories like /system and /dev, you're rooted. If not, you're not. Skipsoft's Nexus 7 Toolkit works well. Just redo the root steps, watch for error messages, and use Super SU (not SuperUser), and you'll be fine.
This happened to me too so I re rooted it manually. I just followed this link:
http://forums.androidcentral.com/ne...1477-guide-nexus-7-factory-image-restore.html
Wow this is getting confusing... ive got two or more guides open both with varying methods and files to install..
if i download the new SU files and reroot, then it wipes all files ? so how does having the SU work
As to reflashing a new binary, thats what i dont want, i just want a stock set up thas rooted.
Also re terminal? it that putty ? and go into the device that way?

all the binary will do is give you root/su, that is what you want. no more, no less. youll need the supersu app too, to grant su.

they dont go onto your pc. normally they would go into the titanium backup folder, but you have an option of storing them in the cloud(i use the google drive option, then just restore from there too).

Hello,
I just wanted to share how I have rooted my device today, and it was way easier than the methods I have been reading about so far.
My device: Xperia Z2 , C6543.
How I did it:
1- I updated my flashtool to the latest version, downloaded the 7.1.2.A.0.314 ftf for my region and flashed like instructed in the post. (Note that If you don't have flashtool installed, you have to go inside it's drivers folder and install the Z2 driver so it can communicate to the phone).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2759934
2- After the downgrade to the 7.1.2.A.0.314 version mentioned above, I went to the flashtool menu (My 65XX -> Root -> Force towelroot)
When prompted to, I have choosen the SuperSU option.
Then the towelroot app showed in the phone's screen, I've tapped on "make it rain" and let it run.
After that the phone restarted and it was rooted.
3. Okay, now that the 7.1.2.A.0.314 is rooted, an OTA update notification showed up to update to the same version (lol). Well, I just let it update, and the root was there (I confirmed by restoring some data in titanium backup).
4. After that, another OTA update showed up to update to 23.0.1.A.0.167. Again, I let it download and install.
Well, that's what it took for me to root my z2 in it's latest version with only one downgrade and no manual adb commands, no manual rootkit downloads, pretty similar to the way I've always rooted my ZQ (R.I.P - it drowned lol).
The credits are due to the hard-working people who made all the mentioned tools, I am only doing my part by sharing an easier method than what i've seen around. Feel free to share your toughts.
Laters!
Sorry to be noob! Will it break anything like camera x reality or anything? And for warranty, can I claim it by just unrooting it(it's in the su) ?
Did not break anything for me. Now I can use foldermount and transfer heavy apps to the external sd. Wonderful. As for the warranty, since there is no recovery installed and no bootloader unlocked, it is as easy as doing the step 1 in the procedure described. It will flash the unrooted system back.
But ist same method, if u use this or this tool.
This post doesnt deserve an original development section!
thanks. I will follow this guide as i had root, upgraded and lost it. But i've have been itching to flash stuff lol.

I am not sure I understand what you mean, but if you are talking about the xperiarootkit compared to the "force towelroot" from flashtool, I checked the scripts in advance and they seem to be the same thing yes. The only shortcut to what I did was not having to flash recovery, and creating customized ftf, etc.

not before applying the OTA. Perhaps that would have helped. I have the app installed, but it says the binaries are not installed, to consult the forums for re-rooting

I think you have to do all the stuff one again and root device. Then check the option for its root survival and do ota updates. I think you'll be fine with the updates.
Question, /System RW? (don't confuse it with a TA Restore, as it could only be restoring to the /Data partition).

I doubt you'll have system RW access as sony ric should still be running, but if root is working fine flashing nut's recovery should fix this easily.
root achieved and kept
Nice one thanks for the info worked well and updated to .167 ota and kept root.
Going to give this a try. Thanks
Thanks for the info, OP.
I used flashtool to downgrade my D6503 to .55, tried to use towelroot, no luck. used the CVE root exploit and got root, but after that update center failed the verification to .314.
Your method works, so cheers!

flashtool will wipe your phone unless you unselect data partition (not recommended). The rooting part is non-destructive so no that part won't your phone.

Tried to install nut's recovery with supersu option but all the apks in the script could not be written into system folder. Also could not install xposed installer. May have to downgrade again and avoid this method
update: no need to downgrade again. sony_ric prevents r/w to system folder even with root, so I just used ric killer by forty two: http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z2/general/4-4-4-sony-ric-killer-t2953141
afterward I was able to install xposed installer via normal method.
Thank you for the tutorial. It worked fine for me.
What will happen if I do a factory reset via settings-menu? Will root be gone? Do I have to downgrade again or can I install SuperSU to get root back?

Updated CF-autoroot with latest Supersu binaries and combined TWRP recovery for SM-T800/SM-T805/T700/T705 Exynos only, Lollipop and Kitkat
I've noticed that quite a number of people seeking to root their device also flash TWRP afterwards, seeing as it's unnecessary to do both steps I have made an all in one package to root and install TWRP recovery.
Cf-autoroot has been updated with the latest Supersu binaries and TWRP has been updated with my fixed version (ADB root shell and Download mode fixes).
UPDATE - I have updated all versions with new builds. TWRP is now v2.8.6.2 and now includes the fixes recently pushed to their repo for encrypted backups. I have also addressed the slow wipe issue, cache, system, etc., which some have experienced and should now be much quicker.
Each device now has it's own build, this is to ensure that TWRP recovery build properties reflect the device it's installed on. ROMs such as CM12 should now install without issue.
Feedback is welcome.
Simply flash with ODIN. Odin 10.6

UPDATED TWRP:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3074633
NOTE: It is important to boot to recovery after flashing or twrp may not stick and will be replaced with stock recovery.
When flashing uncheck auto reboot in Odin, immediately after flashing manually reboot and boot into twrp.
Manual reboot is POWER + HOME +VOL DOWN then as soon as the screen goes blank immediately change to VOL UP whilst still holding the other buttons.
Credits to chainfire for his great work.

Looks like you are rooted but are not granting root permission when asked.
Is the post below any solution to your problem?

If you still have problems you could open the Super su app and change in settings to 'Grant' root access by default.

As i know the method for root our phone is system mode, the systemless zip not work
Here the procedure that i followed for rooting my phone and is system mode
What you need:
Unlocked bootloader (see chapter 2).
TWRP installed (see chapter 7).
1.Zip .
2.Zip .
How:
Put 1.zip and 2.zip into your sd card/internal storage.
Boot into TWRP.
Ignore the message from TWRP.
Choose the "install" button.
Locate 1.zip (if on sd card go "up a level" and then "external sdcard" there you should find it).
Install it.
Reboot your phone.
Boot into TWRP again.
Locate 2.zip .
Install it.
Reboot
That's just the initial bootloader unlock and root method.
I used same method but later flashed custom rom witch also comes rooted. I have also unrooted and then rerooted systemless mode with SuperSU zip.

3 months since your last contact....
Things have changed a lot and android pay is working hard for avoid us pay with rooted phones.
Nowadays magisk is on v9 version and facing v10.
Want a clue?
If your mobile is compatible with multirom go this way. One rom rooted and modified as you want and another stock for doing payments.
Luck!
