Hi! I kinda have the same problem on my Z1 (C6903), it's rooted but it doesn't work the replacement of kinguser. I run terminal and this is what I get:
[email protected]:/ # sh/sdcard/mrw/root.sh
k_shell/10330:9026: sh/sdcard/mrw/root.sh: not found
127|[email protected]:/ #
I think I copied correctly the file to the root of the sdcard, can you provide any help? Thanks!
Easier way of doing this...install the Kingroot, and follow instructions to Replace KingUser with SuperUser up to point 2, then download Root Browser, and browse to the folder in question and open the file yourself. Tested and works perfect.
Worked great on my C6943, no problems at all, SuperSU working with it's latest binary.

Then you didn't have root with kingroot first. For binary, follow point 6 of above.....all terminal is for is to install the file, my suggestion is just doing it manually

I solved. I had put the folder mrw in the external sd, this was the problem.
How do I install recovery?
My phone reboot after typing sh /sdcard/mrw/root.sh
Then I open SuperSU and update binary but it failed. "Installation failed, Please Reboot and try again"

Steps :
Send the extracted folder "mrw" to the internal storage of your device and make sure that this folder contains 6 files
Open Terminal emulator and type :
Su
Allow root permission
Type :
sh /sdcard/mrw/root.sh
It might display some error, at the end it will launch supersu or open supersu manually.
Update su binary normal, then reboot.
- See more at: http://www.w0lfdroid.com/2015/05/Ho...ot-with-SuperSU.html?m=1#sthash.5QILJARG.dpuf
for anyone interested in root and recoveries (and for those who don't mind keeping kinguser)..
BEST PROCESS TO GET ROOT + RECOVERY WITH .270 FW:
- Download Kingroot from kingroot.net;
- Root your z1 with the app, it will also install kinguser;
- In kinguser, allow root access to adb software;
- Use XZDualRecovery installer from Nut's (2.8.15) [http://nut.xperia-files.com/], choose method 1 (rooted + supersu), when it
asks to grant root permission on your phone just press a key (you already did in the previous step, because you don't have
SuperSu installed so it wouldn't work!)
- Wait for the installer to finish, then, well.. "enjoy the recoveries" hahah
what is the difference between Kinguser and SuperSU?

So if I wanted to install the recovery, I should first install it and then replace with Kinguser with SuperSU?
Z1-lockeddualrecovery2.8.15-RELEASE.installer.zip
The correct recovery for Zperia Z1 is this?
How do you install?
Thank you.
I've been struggling with the Xposed framework too....beginning to think its not possible on .270 yet

If unable to execute through terminal emulator use Root Browser
Hllo guys,
If there is any path problem while executing the root.sh file through terminal emulator you can alternatively install root browser open the mrw folder in root browser and open the root.sh file and there u select execute and the file will be executed and further u must follow as mentioned above to update Su Library.
Hope that it must easy your job..
its works, thanks bro ?

IIRC, this KingRoot or KingoRoot was already banned from this forum because it was proved it is connecting to some chinese servers with collected data. Personally, l would avoid it.

Any ideas?
EDIT: After updating BusyBox, and then re-installing the Recovery, it re-started and is now stuck in a bootloop..
EDIT2: The bootloop is very likely related to this (from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2261606):
"@vaisakh7 found a busybox updater which seems to be compatible with XZDualRecovery: Busybox On Rails, which installs a version of busybox created by stericson, which leads me to believe his Busybox installer should also install a version which works together with XZDualRecovery.
Either case, be careful with updating busybox as there still is a possibility it will break your ability to enter recovery or even break full root, which means you might not be able to recover from the broken situation. Your best bet is the installer version, using that to break the lock on the system partition and reinstall the correct busybox."
Recommended to NOT update BusyBox
Busybox can never be installed through this process always failed and there is no other option left once busybox installation failed except to reinstall the whole firmware please add the steps to guide for busybox installation too

Had the same problem and did some searching, first tried to download a newer version of the replace king with supersu file, here
http://www.w0lfdroid.com/2015/05/How-to-Remove-Replace-KingUser-KingRoot-with-SuperSU.html (scroll down a bit to the download links)
Then remove your current kingroot app by opening it and going to settings, remove root, reboot. Retry the whole process with the newer replace zip files.

After asking some people to try this method on their phones, it turned out that you can root your xperia z2 using the latest kingroot apk (v4.8)
Tested on xperia z2 and z3 compact
The steps are really simple
Download kingroot from here http://www.kingroot.net/wap
Install the apk and open it
Try to root
If successful then congratulations
***if it fails at a certain point,,, try to use a vpn then try again***
To have better root access, install SuperSU using this method (source: w0lfdroid)
Download and install Terminal emulator app here
Download and unzip "Replace_Kingroot_With_SuperSU.zip" file here
Send the extracted folder "mrw" to the internal storage of your device and make sure that this folder contains 4 files
Open Terminal emulator and type :
su
Allow root permission
Type: sh /sdcard/mrw/root.sh
It might display some error, at the end it will launch supersu or open supersu manually.
Update su binary normal, then reboot.
I would really appreciate it if more people try this method and share the result in the comments
Thanks

Looks good, but better to go with installing super su trough recovery after king root. I got a bootloop while I was trying to install super su after Kingroot. And anyway, you'll need recovery for flashing, why root without TWRP. Kingroot roots. 264 in v4.6 w/o any issues.

Ok thanks for your feedback
I never got a bootloop replacing kingroot...strange
Yes it works I was able to install existenz without connecting my phone to PC.
simplest method to get root with supersu:
1. download kingroot apk, put on internal storage
2. download (or create your own) prerooted zip, (or a ROM with supersu) put on internal sd card
3. download dual recovery to PC and unzip
4. make sure you have developer options and usb debugging enabled
5. make sure you have unknown sources enabled under settings/security
6. install kingroot apk and run it. It will say not exploit found or somesuch but you can continue from there and it will eventuall succeed
7. once you have root with kingroot connect the phone to your pc, make sure you authorize the usb debugging and run the batch file in the unzipped dual recovery
8. choose "phone rooted with supersu" and grant root access with kingroot when it pops up
9. let the dual recovery install and eventually it will reboot to twrp
10. not sure if it is necessary but I did a full wipe; data,cache, dalvik and system
11. install the the prerooted zip with twrp
12 reboot to a rooted phone with supersu

Yes, but many old devices does not have custom recoveries and also many people who use those devices does not have a PC to flash patched boot.img... and also some devices does not have firmware available too....
Many device's bootloader also locked...
If we install magisk then it will definitely soft brick..
since on a bootloader locked mobile tweaking recovery or boot partition will get result like brick
Thats why some people stick with King(o) root.....
