Sony Xperia E4 Root Access for all firmwares - Sony Xperia E4 Questions & Answers

ROOT FOR SONY XPERIA E4 ALL FIRMWARES (DUAL AND SINGLE)​
In this tutorial I am going to show you how to get ROOT access for your XperiaE4 device.
******Me or the developers of the Rooting applications/programs are not responsible for the damage that your phone might have after the process.
Prerequisites
1.A computer that is running Windows.
2.Internet connection.
3.Half an hour.
Let`s begin!​
So there are two methods of rooting your E4 depending on the firmware that you currently use.
To find out which version of firmware you have you need to go to Settings>About Phone, and scroll down until you see which build number you have so you could follow the instructions.
First! 24.0.A.3.8/24.0.B.3.8
Witch this version is more simple to root.
1.Go to Settings>Security and tick Unknown Sources so you could install applications from other sources then Google Play store.
2.Go to this link: https://sites.google.com/site/androidxdacom/file/kingroot_4.1.0.703.apk?attredirects=0
3.Download the application and install it.
**You might get a screen saying that the application is a malware, tick the box and select install anyway.**
4.After you install the application, just let the app do it`s thing.
5.Reboot the device.
Second! 24.0.A.5.14/24.0.B.5.14
Here... Is a bit harder.
1.Download this program to your Computer. http://mmgr.myapp.com/myapp/Kingroot/webapp_kingroot/image/KingRootSetup_105002.exe
***Works only on WINDOWS***
2.Now, install KingRoot to your PC.
3.Go to your phone, Settings>Developer Options and activate USB Debugging
4.Connect the phone to the PC while KingRoot is running on your PC.
5.Wait until the device is recognized
6.Press the ROOT button and wait until the process is done.
That`s it. Those are the most simple methods to root your Xperia E4.

Why does my root go away when I delete the KingUser app? I'm using the latest FW.

you must change the kinguser with something else..and then delete it...
check here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6IgvVRt3ak

not correct,doesnt work on newest firmware(25.0.A.2.31)

Easer way
Even if you have the latest firmware E2003_25.0.A.2.31 you can root your phone in 3 minutes even without the PC.
All you need is new KingRoot.apk and .... device AFTER factory reset. Because I'm new - I can not post a link, sorry.
But it's really easy to find it
Just install it as a normal apk.
Tested on my E2003 with E2003_25.0.A.2.31_1294-3054_R2A.ftf firmware.
Of course it's for E4G phone.

Root device? Safe?

Hi!
I have had this phone for a while now and thinking about rooting it so i can use droidwall and OC the phone. How is the easiest wat and is it safe?
Isak
i used z4root and no side-effect so far..
Ok, but if something goes wrong is it anyway to recover all data on the phone and just start up again?
i would say its always wise to do a backup before trying anything potentially dangerous..
u may read the other topic about recovery mode in this board for this..
Ok, gör det innan jag försöker roota
good luck and have fun..
worked perfect Thanks!
@Isakk1, can you please guide me how you rooted your u8800 using z4root?I got problem with the driver (huawei hsusb device)
hoping for your immediate response.tnx

do it in your own risk and make sure your understand what rooting is before rooting
get z4root, install it, run it, select "permanent root", wait until it reboots, done.
I need the driver dude..i keep searching on google but it's hard to find the exact file in this device.

USB driver for windows? do you see the auto mounted CD drive after plugging in? the drivers are there
Why need of drivers?
Assuming you are trying to copy z4root on your device... SD-card should mount itself when you plug usb in, just choose to mount from your phone notification are.
Moved to general.
I think this is what you're trying to do:
1. Open device manager, you will see this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then right click on the HSUSB Device choose update driver then browse my computer manually. Then browse to this:
It will then install the driver and it should show this in device manager now:
Also worthwhile would be starting cmd and running adb devices to make sure the phone is listed.
thankz a lot guys..very appreciated
i rooted my phone . but i feel it's not good idea when i use 1 week. the phone always have some issues when use, so i flash back.
Can someone upload the drivers and share the link coz I can't find the drivers on the mounted drive (it's empty) after I installed the B160 based ROM.
Drivers attached to this post
Thanks alot!
I used z4root from Applanet.net
installed easily and rooted no probs as well.

Failed to install Aroma file manager on Samsung S5

Hello. This is my first post on this forum so please correct me should i post this in the wrong cathegory or use wrong tags etc
I followed the straight-forward guide i find here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646108
Using the recovery mode on a Samsung S5 i have the option to "Apply update from external storage" and i find the .zip file under this tab and if i try to apply the update i get the following message:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I've been trying this three times but i get the same error. I tried to search if other experienced the same problems but i found no similar threads.
Fyi this is on a non-rooted S5. It belonged to my grandmother which recently passed away and we are stuck trying to retrieve the photos on the device and this seemed like the best way. If there is any other way to retrieve these photos from a S5 with a pattern lock i will gladly accept any suggestions USB Debugging is obviously turned off on this phone -_-
Thank you!
You need root, a custom recovery and a terminal emulator as it seems to do this. Btw i`am sorry for your grandmother. Best is to flash a custom recovery with Odin, flash the latest superSU.zip in recovery . Reboot and install a terminal emulator from Play and follow the guide. Turn on usb debugging too.

If you was one of those who root their devices by using KingRoot App and would like to remove kinguser and related files, you can replace it with the well known SuperSU. I have made a small script to remove Chinese kingruser, all related files and folders, and install SuperSU. This script will do all the work for you without using PC, just by terminal, first of all, thanks to chainfire for his SuperSU files.
Before starting :
I recommend to do a Factory Reset "CLEAN"
Update all of your apps and make sure your Google Play Service is also updated
Download and install KingRoot KingRoot Chinese or XDA KingRoot then run it to Root your device.
Download and install Terminal Emulator app
Download and unzip "Replace_Kingroot_With_SuperSU.zip" file
Steps :
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 :
Code:
su
Allow root permission
Type :
Code:
sh /sdcard/mrw/root.sh
If it ask you to delete Kingroot select delete
It might display some error, at the end it will launch supersu or open supersu manually.
Update su binary normal, then reboot.
Done !
Notes :
The extracted folder must be in /Phone/ or you will need to change cmd.
This script must work for all devices waiting tester.
You might need to update SuperSu after rebooting your device.
Please let me know the model of your device, if it worked for you.

Hello guys,
By far, for me this is one of the most simplest ways of rooting this phone. Lets get started
BTW All Downloads Below
1. Download KingRoot
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2. Extract ZIP package with app desired or use a desktop, then place files onto phone
3. install the APK, and ignore any warning pop-ups
4.Open the app upon completion of app
5. You will be presented with the main screen saying no root avaliable, CLICK ON TRY TO ROOT
6. App will now start executing root
*May be slow so give it time
*Make sure to allow blocked apps if presented with a pop-up
7.If all went well you will be presented with a ROOT SUCCESSFUL screen OR phone will restart and you will have root
***At this point DO NOT request or run any apps that require root until the device is restarted.
8. Enjoy Root!
-If root is not accessible upon restarting, go into KingUser Su and click on REPAIR ROOT
-I do not know how to replace KingUser with SuperSU Sorry!
Goodluck!
