I recently updated Yureka to 5.0.2 and out of curiosity I was searching for Root access in developer tools, and unable to see it. But I believe it was there in KitKat. Even search option in settings gives result ROOT ACCESS in same option, but I'm unable to get.
I believe there should be a way out than losing all internal memory data to flash SuperSU. It is possible to enable that HIDDEN TOGGLE by some ADB command since USB debugging is available?
Hope we helped, if so use ? button to thank people)

I had rooted CM11 of Yureka but lost it after updation by CM12. I had heard that CM12 will have in-built root access but couldn't locate within Developer Tools or Privacy Guard Option.
If any one knows, please let the community know. I don't want to follow fastboot rooting method.

Hello to everyone.
I have a note 3 , N 9005. I rooted it at some point then i reset it to factory settings because the banking app and other apps did not work anymore. Yesterday I did flash the new android 5, which I downloaded from xda forum.
Everything went smooth, I was hoping the device status - custom message will go away with the new official firmware installation.
It still shows the same.
I tried the unmount sd card, wipe cache and restart with no success. I have also erased all data on the sd card (32 GB samsung).
How can I have my device status set to ''official'' so I can receive updates automatically?
When will there be a root method for android 5 ?
Thanks so much for your time.
Hamza

You can set your system to official by using wanam xposed in the xposed installer. using wanam set systemb to official. Then request the update. Wait until it downloads then use odin to reinstall custom firmware. Then let the ota install. It will put you back to your original kk then it will download lollipop again. You cash also go back to fill in root by using odin to install factory firm ware. Keep an eye on it because after the firmware installs it will reset. As soon as it goes from boot to loading the rom pull the battery before any of your information gets in to the new firmware. P ut the battery back in hit vol up + menu + power in the stock recovery click factory reset let it load. Check out your factory set system then come back here and click thank you.
Hey dude,
I upgraded my Note3 to 5.0 and kept root. If you're still on KK you can install Xposed framework and install the Wanam module. You have a option in that module to "fake" the STATUS message to OFFICIAL. I can assure you that it works, but you can upgrade with MobileOdinPro and still have a rooted 5.0 Note3. The steps are easy, but with a search on google I'm sure you will be okay. If you still don't manage to find anything, you can PM me and I'm sure I can help.
Hi again to everyone. My device is not rooted now. I unrooted when I was still on kit kat because the mobile banking app did not work and other apps too.
I tried to root it using CF autoroot for android 5. It said fail .
That is the message I got from Odin. The phone is not bricked, it still works normally.
I have done alot of search on google, I have not found anything which seems ok, just a post on a blog, and people commented below that they bricked their devices with that method so I did not do it.
Thanks to everyone for their advices and for taking the time to reply to my post.
Any more ideas please? Thanks.

Hi . Yes I know. I should have rooted when I was on kit kat, then upgraded through mobile odin pro, and I would have kept root.
Thanks for your reply.
Hello.
Updates are:
I have downgraded to the latest kit kat. Rooted it. I flashed lollipop using mobile odin pro. It went ok but I had no root . I do not know why.
I rooted using chain fire auto root. I am rooted now finally. I managed to get rid of all the crapware. My wi fi acts up. I need to log in everytime i restart the phone.
the wifi turns on but it does not remember to log in automatically. Any fix for that?
Also I can't se the device status to "official" by using wanam exposed. Any ideas anyone?
Thanks.
Hello everyone,
hoping somebody will take a minute and help me understand what I'm doing wrong when it comes to gaining root access on my s5.
I downloaded the latest nightly of CM13 and installed it with Philz.. everything works great minus some problems with google apps, which have somehow worked themselves out, however when I enable root access in dev options rootchecker says root is not installed properly on my device ? I know its supposed to have built in root, but is there a way I can run the CF AUTOROOT to fix it? or is that sort of redundant at this stage ? Any help would be much appreciated, thankyou
This is Note 3 forum .
I asked this in the newbie thread, but no one has responded, so I'm trying here as well.
I'm not good at this, so apologies if I use the wrong terminology.
The "Encrypt phone" option in the Settings menu on my phone is missing -- according to several posts here, it's disabled by default on Huawei's ROM. Someone suggested to install a third-party Android launcher app. I did so, and gained access to the hidden encrypt phone menu, however, the option (the button) is greyed out.
Would rooting the phone and installing a custom ROM enable an "encrypt phone" option? If so, which method should I use to root it? And which custom ROM should I install? Would replacing the custom Huawei EMUI ROM with the Android 5.0 Lollipop stock ROM be helpful for enabling the option, for example?
How can I tell whether the phone is possibly already encrypted?
Some forum posts mention connection the phone via USB to my computer (Windows 7) and somehow, via a terminal command, force an encryption process. Does anyone know how to do that?
Data about the phone:
Model: HUAWEI CUN-L21
Version: CUN-L21C577B115, Android 5.1, EMUI 3.1
Let me know if you need more information. I'd be so grateful for any advice!

I believe you can try this:
https://www.jethrocarr.com/2013/12/29/encrypting-disk-on-android-4/
But probably they disabled encryption on your device because it will become very slow after encryption, but on the other hand you should be able to revert it quite easily, as long as you don't mind to restore your phone to factory settings.
Please let me know if this works for you
Currently my device doesn't support USB debugging, file transfer etc. for some weird reason. Hence, decided to reset it to factory settings and then root it. It is updated to the latest version (Nougat). Kindly help me by laying out detailed steps to root my phone and install custom roms (preferable OREO) so IMEI and other functionalities won't be lost. Also, kindly guide me how to take proper precaution like backing up stock rom and other settings, in case something goes wrong and I need to unbrick the device. TIA
Sadly, still can not access any menu from notification area, and hence no USB debugging
Hi!
I have issue with app on my S7 Edge that demands me to unroot. I rooted my phone 5 years ago or more and I don't remember a thing about it. I did this to permanently remove bloatware. Only way I know to unroot is to flash stock-rom again but I don't want to loose my hard effort on debloating + data and so on. Is there any tricks for that? Like hide/remove su binary? I really don't remember where to start. Also with factory reset or something I cant remember I lost root access partially - that is apps can still tell that phone is rooted (root checker tells that root access is available but then also orange warning that root access is not properly installed on this device). But they can't request root privilege for some reason. But I still have this custom recovery rom installed where I have basically root access to phone - do you think I could use this to somehow hide temporarily root from my app that is complaining about it and then later restore root to the full - that is to make apps able to request root access again? I would like to keep my apps/data and I remember them getting lost in process of rooting due to some samsung encryption crap - not sure how to check data/app loss would be case now since I did it so long time ago. Could anyone help me out?
For documentation purposes. So in my case I had lost root with factory reset. I had to boot into TWRP and re-flash super su. Difference from official tutorial: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ial-twrp-for-galaxy-s7-edge-hero2lte.3334084/ was that in step 9 my phone did not complain about dm-verity,. I did not have to disable encryption and I did not loose my data. Someone may correct me but it was because I had already rooted in past and the most likely cause for "loosing" root was doing factory reset. PS I have european model so I am not sure how much it makes this tutorial different.
Now what is left to do is come up with ideas how to hide root from 1 specific app in Android 7.
