Q-Why am I posting this?
I recently bought nexus 7 2013 version and after installing the Viper FX I couldn't have the effects in streaming apps like tunein radio etc. So I searched threads after threads and I don't want anyone else to go through what I have gone through.
Caution
If any of you has viper4android installed previously then unistall the driver then uninstall the app then reboot and then flash the zip from TWRP.
So here are the steps.
1)Download the viper_v2.3.3.0.zip
2)Reboot into TWRP recovery mode
3)Flash the zip via TWRP recovery.
4)And then boot your nexus and open ViperFX
5)Grant root access and then install driver(super audio quality) (if it asks for busybox then install it from play store)
And now for configuring viper4android
just download headphones.zip extract it and place it at
/storage/sdcard0/ViPER4Android/Profile/
If u dont have folders then create by yourself and after pasting go to viperfx then in the menu>load effect rofile>headphones
please hit thanks if I helped you.
Problems with viper4android install
I would like to install Viper4android on my Nexus 2013 but am having problems . I downloaded the program from the play store , have busybox installed , set SElinux to permissive , installed viper drivers rebooted and it worked . However after a further reboot the drivers are not installed and I'm unable to install them following the steps mentioned above . I don't understand the instructions re flashing the file via TWRP recovery but have flashed my nexus using NRT so if someone could post some easy instructions I could have a go . I'd really like to get this mod working on my Nexus so any help would be appreciated . My device is rooted

I flashed one of these files and it worked great for my Nexus 7.
EDIT: Oops, you didn't mention your Android version, but anyways, I'm on MM, so read carefully if your android version is compatible.

hi there,
finally i found a more easy way to root my z3tc.
it works with out flashing an other firmware and it keeps the drm keys and your bootloader locked.
its not even necessary to wipe the device, so you can keep all our apps an settings.
so here are the steps i did to get root on my z3tc running the latest kitkat stock firmware.
1.) download and install kingroot 4.1 its an oneclick root, similar to towelroot.
take care that it is v4.1+ and not below !!!
2.) install superuser from playstore (just because you well be asked for it in the next step. i use kinguser for granting permissions later)
3.) download an install XZDualRecovery
(choose option 2, install for superuser.)
4.) download and flash (via recovery) SonyRICDefeat
enjoy full root on your device
nvm

i concur with TS.
But be warned that kingroot's SU binary sometimes have issues with granting access to ADB even though you have allowed it by default.
I spent the entire day troubleshooting my friend's tablet trying to root via kingroot,flashing dual recovery and giving it proper root via supersu. needless to say, it was very educational as it was frustrating.
once you ran the bat file for ric defeat, you still need to dl the app called SDfix (by nextapp) to fully write to sdcard. and yes, the sdcard write bug is still there from kitkat!
Hi There,
Does this Method work with Lollipop?
Is it possible to use Supersuser instead of Kinguser to mangage permissions?

Yes works with Lollipop. After running the latest Kingroot (KingRoot-4.1.0.249.apk ), before rebooting I installed dual recovery for locked bootloader. Then rebooted to TWRP and flashed BETA-SuperSU-v2.49.zip, which will uninstall KingUser on first run.
However I got the XignCode3 error from com2us and gamevil games. So I booted back into TWRP and flashed UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip and everything was peachy.

is there a special reason why you flashed supersu v2.49 first and v2.46 afterwards? i mean flashing just v2.46 would work as well right ?
@frostmore did you use 4.1 ? as far as i understood ric defeat gives you write access to the system on the internal storage on sony devices (for what normally root would be sufficient) and has nothing to do with the kitkat writing limitation on external cards. so you have to use one of the many apps in the store which will fix this. (or do the trick yourself in an xml file) since i installed xposed as well (this was btw the only reason why i wanted root to be able to use app settings again) i did it there.
It works !!!
Finally. Thx a lot.
Worked great on my SGP611. I didn't bother unlocking the bootloader. I performed this on 23.1.A.0.690. I first replaced with SuperSU 2.46, but it seemed to have issues removing KingRoot. I then flashed 2.49 beta, and it removed KingRoot, then I switched back to SuperSU 2.46.
Cheers!
I tried rooting my SGP611 with Android version 4.4.4 and failed. That is when I decided to manually update (flash) it to 5.0.2 with the build number 23.1.A.1.28 (currently the latest version Sony had released). And suddenly the magic happend thanks to KingRoot. On the first try I have successfully rooted my device.
Then, without rebooting, I immediately installed NUT's XDualRecovery via the second method (install on stock modded ROM with superuser).
Next thing I rebooted into TWRP recovery and flashed the latest available BETA version of SuperSU by Chainfire (2.49-BETA).
I rebooted back into system and opened the SuperSU app and removed all the KingRoot apps, updated the 'su' binary with 'Normal' mode in SuperSU and finally rebooted my device again.
The result was satisfying.
At last I have root access on my Xperia Z3 Tablet Compact 16GB Wifi model running Android 5.0.2 with Chainfire's SuperSU, XDualRecovery, Bootloader locked!
I tried RIC defeating my device and wasn't successful. But apperently that's not a big deal because XDualRecovery may have already killed RIC. (Maybe I am wrong(!), so please correct me...)
My favourite apps like AdAway, Titanium Backup, SD Maid and Busybox work flawlessly. And rebooting my device didn't remove my root for now. Well, I have to test it for some days to see if root is permanent.
A big THANK YOU to the KingRoot team.
I tried Rooting my SGP 612 with stock 5.0.2 but got stuck at the first step. Kingroot couldnt root the device succesfully.
Edit: Dont mind the commenct, worked fine on the second try.

I forgot about that part. That didn't work for me either. According to XZDualRecovery thread it does. I can confirm have r/w access to /system, haven't checked anywhere else..

hey guys rooted Z3 Tab with Kingoroot..

but on the last step install Supersu 2.46 but after reboot

Anyone have s a idea for me?

This method still works on 23.1.A.28
i can't root my SGP621 with kingroot 4.1 :crying:
it says "root access is unavailable"
it's on Lollipop 5.0.2
thanks guys
sir, can i root the sameway ?
@stavro this is my device info...thx
i am not the developer of the root method nor do i have experience with rooting (via kingroot) of other devices then mine (sgp611).
its just a list of things i did to get root in a more simpler way then it was already possible before.
i would expect that it works for the sgp621 too since you have same firmware version then i have.
but if you are not sure you better go to the general kingroot thread and see if other people can confirm that root is working for your device.
Do I have to flash XZDualRecovery and SonyRIC Defeat when I only need root?

No issues at all even starting from Lollipop 5.0.2 v23.1.A.0.690 firmware, thank you!
The only thing I can't do is flash RICDefeat patch from recovery (it fails with an error I can't remember), but even without that patch I can read and write \system folder.

It's highly recommended to install
XZDualRecovery to automatically gain the RIC patch. You don't need to flash SonyRIC Defeat if you install the recovery because it's already included.
The question is, what do you want to do with root? Having system R/W access is quite important to actually have a complete root experience.
MOD EDIT by @gregbradley
USER WARNING This root method sends your IMEI number to an ip address in china during the process. Only use this root method if you are aware of this and accept the risk.
Read more here.
You have been warned
This method will work on all Xperia devices running Lollipop , KitKat or any other older version.
This will work on both Locked Bootloader and Unlocked Bootloader.
1. Download KingRoot v4.1.0 and install it in your mobile - http://d-h.st/34c1
2. Root your phone using KingRoot app. ( If it fails try again it will succeed )
Now To Replace KingUser with SuperSU :
1. Download the file - http://d-h.st/ZxN8
2. Extract the file and copy the mrw folder to the root of your internal storage.
3. Download Terminal Emulator for Android from PlayStore - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jackpal.androidterm&hl=en
4. Open the Terminal app in your mobile , enter the command " su " ( without quotes ) . Allow Root Access in your mobile.
5. Now run the command - " sh /sdcard/mrw/root.sh " ( without quotes )
6. The SuperSu app will launch automatically , it will ask to update binary , click on CONTINUE , then Select NORMAL method. After the Binary is installed it will ask to reboot your device.
Thanks MrW0lf and @Kingxteam
I wouldn't use it fella, you do know it sends the imei no of every phone it roots to a unknown ip/server address in China. And doesn't always give full root

Thanks for the detailed steps.. Last week i had rooted my XZR with Kingroot. But i couldn't install SuperSU. Then i followed other method to get root. This is a very easy steps. I will definitely try next time..
There is a way more easier way that I would like to mention here too (at least it worked on my Xperia Tablet Z3 Compact).
So, after gaining root successfully with KingRoot you install XZDualRecovery via the 2nd method. Then you have recovery and you should flash the beta version of Supersu which is version 2.49. With this Supersu you can remove KingRoot apps and stuff. Then install binary via normal mode, reboot and KingRoot should be gone leaving only SuperSU behind. But I'll recommend to flash back the stable version of SuperSU (2.46) again.
Using the TMO Z3 D6616. Followed ur post in detail but getting an error near the end. Looks like Kingroot is gone and SuperSU is installed but it will not update the binary. Keeps failing to update binaries. Any ideas?
Try the Sony ric killer script or install nuts recovery.

Root "any" Xperia is somewhat of an exaggeration. Doesn't work on the M4 Aqua.

if you are using SuperSu 2.49 then downgrade to SuperSu 2.48 or 2.46 should solve this.

Did you try kingroot v4.6 or v4.5?
kingroot v4.6
This is great news. Might be a silly question but does this unlock the bootloader and if so should we backup the DRM keys?
No it will not unlock the boot loader, no custom recovery required, just root the stock rom for me.
Problem: I already had SU installed before I did the update to 5.1.1. After I did the update, I got thru step 3 and tried using the already installed SU I already had installed and it would not update the binary. So I installed the SUME and tried it that way. Still SU would not update binary. Tried it several times after several reboots and nothing. Uninstalled both SUme and SU and rebooted then reinstalled SUME and it doesn't seem to work and now SUME seems to freeze up and just sits there. I am not sure what to do. I can't get any of my apps like titanium backup root access. Any advice?
Thanks

flash 5.1.1 ftf without wiping data and cache and try my method again.It will work.You will not lose your datas.
Can I use any FTF file? I can't seem to find one for the SGP312, most of the ones I have found are for the Xperia phone.

use download latest flashtool and open xperifirm from flashtool.you will find your handy
I followed all steps but superSU says that it can't find the su binary.
It is in the system/xbin folder though.
Kingroot 4.5, 4.6 (and 4.65) doesn't show any error, it roots the tablet correctly according to root checker.
Super-sume doesn't show any errors neither, only SuperSU.
SGP321 with latest stock ROM
Any idea how to fix that?
Edit: Tablet is stuck in bootloop after restarting.
Reflash with PC Companion fixed the bootloop.
Can any developers try this please? I think it's theoretically possible and easy.
I know there's already a way to root nokia 6 but I don't seem to be able understand it.
My theory is
1. Use Kingroot or Kingoroot(we'll replace this later on, we just need the root capabilities.)
2. Once rooted, download Rashr# from playstore
3. Install twrp/cwm/ or philz using Rashr# (it worked to my old phone to install cwm using this app from playstore) use this link, as it's been said to be working twrp properly.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/?id=25769#downloads
4. Once twrp/cwm/ or philz has been installed, uninstall kingoroot/kingroot.
5. Use that twrp(boot to recovery mode) to install the root given be Chinese7to stated in this topic.

I am using Ta-1021

Can anyone please trythis on January 1 2018 security patch?
If it works, please make a proper guide better than I did. Note that this is just a theory, I couldn't get myself to do it because I have no backup phone and I don't understand the instructions given at most of the guides here.
