Stock ROM is possible to flash only by Odin.
Imho rooted stock doesn´t exist. You must root it after instal.
easiest way to to flash latest available rom for your region/carrier using odin, then root using towelroot. i'm using the latest uk btu which is still FNB8. I've tried loads but always seem to come back to this setup, it's the most stable for me.
If I'm understanding you correctly, you want to be able to root/unroot at will?
Easiest way I found is if you have custom recovery Philz. With this you can go into Philz setting, restore root and then install SuperSU from store. Then to unroot just choose "Full unroot" in SuperSU app and you're done.
You can also use twolroot to root the phone then install SuperSU to full unroot.....although I've found that this can take a couple of attempts of rooting/unrooting before the UNROOT will hold for some reason. At the moment I'm on totally stock ROM, stock recovery, but I rooted with towelroot to make some adjustments using xposed/wanam and to edit the snd_soc_msm files for louder music and remove bloatware using rootexplorer, and have now finally got unroot by rebooting/clearing cache at each stage of the process (i.e. when i root, when i install supersu, when i update the binary in supersu, then i reboot one more time once root is confirmed working, then full unroot and uninstall towlroot app and reboot/clear cache once more).
So now I have a sort of custom stock rom without root, sky go player working. Perfect setup until I get brave and a new update comes out.
::EDIT::
there are also pre-rooted stock roms in this thread,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2250824
not sure if the procedure for unrooting would be the same though? or even if you can using these roms?
Hello,
Is the anyway to root 5.1.1 version of android wear ?
Is there also a way to revert back to 5.0.2 ?
Thanks
I just used the windroid universal tool for my gear live and worked fine.
As for reverting back I'm not sure about that due to thd OTA automatic updates.. But you can use the same tool to flash a 4.4w image (that later will update itself via OTA)

If there is a TWRP recovery for your watch, then you use it to root your device. However, I haven't figured out how to launch apps as root from watch itself. The supersu installer crashes.
Ok guys, I found a way to do it. For those who wants root.
I'm using Smartwatch 3.
1. I firts used Windroid Tool, it pushed SuperSU.zip to my watch
2. I downloaded new_boot.img.tar from this thread.
3. I extracted the tar file, and used a command prompt windows and used "adb reboot bootloader" then "fastboot boot new_boot.img".
4. Now from TWRP I managed ti install SuperSU.zip
That's it !
Has anyone tried simply flashing a custom recovery, then using the recovery to flash SuperSU as a way to gain root access?
Or do i need to find a rootable kernel somewhere?? I google this issue alot recently, and just want to find out if someone has done this successfully. Odin is killing me because no matter what i DO try to flash using it, fails... other than the Stock Android 5.0.1 firmware. Am i missing something, or can someone give me directions to the simplest instructions possible to gain root on it. I know this has been asked alot, but most solutions i have found have only been for other carriers, and lower builds of the firmware. I would be willing to downgrade to KitKat if necessary... but also that seems impossible because the bootloader blocks downgrades... Please Help
Worked Like A Charm
So its done!! Simple and easy... Three steps! (make sure to copy the newest SuperSU file to your sdcard first)
***Boot into ODIN Download Mode***
1. Using ODIN flash TWRP 2.8.4.0 (dont let it reboot on its own afterwards!... YOU MUST BOOT INTO RECOVERY ON YOUR OWN THE FIRST TIME TO LET TWRP PATCH THE ROM)
2. While in TWRP recovery, then install SuperSU zip file from your SDcard
3. Select reset and perform the "Factory Reset" option.
!!! Success... !!! you now have a rooted Sprint S4 with the OF1 build of lollipop...

For the proper process to use!

EDIT: Unfortunatelly this is not working any more due to recent SafetyNet updates
Hello everyone. This is first guide i'm trying to write here so don't be to harsh for me also sorry for my english, it's not my native language.
After almost 3 days of messing with various roms and kernels i finally managed to successfully installl Magisk V6 on my Z3 D6633 (yes, Pokemon Go 0.37 works too ) .
First of all you need unlocked bootloader. Without it you won't be able to flash custom kernel. Also, if your kernel is still locked, and you want to unlock it remember that doing so will wipe all data from your device, so backup everything that is important to you prior to following this guide.
This is the setup that works for me:
SLiMM 3.1 rom by Wajk:

Magisk v6 - The Universal Systemless Interface by topjohnwu:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/mod-magisk-v1-universal-systemless-t3432382
Here are the steps:
1. flash rom with 6633 patch, reboot
2. full unroot and clean in SuperSU, reboot
3. flash kernel, reboot
4. flash Magisk V6 and PHH root, reboot
5. install PHH root from play store and Magisk Manager
I used SafetyNet Helper to verify if SafetyNet is working several times during all those steps:
after 1 - not working,
after 2 - working,
after 3 - working,
after 4 - not working,
after 5 - not working,
after disabling root in Magisk Manager - working.
Hope it helps someone
Hi,
For this tutorial I still need the unlocked bootloader?
Regards!
ask the following I
is a LB or UB requirement ?
If the Rom matter as long as the kernel is flashed ?
If the whole with D6603 ?
Thanks for your tutorial

I haven't try with locked bootloader, because I unlocked mine a while ago, but in the kernel thread there is info that unlocked bootloader is required. It might be possible to do it with other roms, as long as they work with Advanced Stock Kernel from the link in first post. D6603 should work too, only difference is that you don't need dual sim patch for SLiMM 3.1 rom
I must have had a similar problem to you originally, I had a working D6603 with a Rooted Marshmellow 6 Rom.
Then, performed the following Steps;
1. Unroot (Inside the SuperSU App)
2. Booted into TWRP and flashed Magisk - v6
3. Then Flashed phh 's systemless superuser
I rebooted the phone and now it is not working. Does not Boot, Black Screen.
The Led will flash red quickly and I am not able to boot into TWRP.
I can see the Phone is Recognised by the Computer (S1 /SOMC Flash Device in Device Manager.)
Could someone please post step by step instructions to restore a to Marshmellow Rom (Any)?
Will I have to download an Image and a Flashtool?
same problem here. I manage to boot to twrp by flashing back the recovery image using fastboot.

Resolved using Emma. I installed the S1 SOMC Flash Device Drivers and I was able to download lollypop.
I will attempt now to reinstall recovery, new rom, and Magisk
Guide helped alot thanks!
Important part was to uninstall SuperSU. Before that ROM appeared to reject the kernel or vice versa, but now it boots on Fragment ROM and unmount seems to work!
Better be worth unlocking the BL

Just flash stock kernel with flashtool.
This Process worked for Me - D6603
1. flash SLIM Rom 6603 and reboot
2. Disable SuperSu, Unroot SuperSu, Boot to Recovery and Wipe Davilk, Reboot
3. Reboot to Recovery, Flash Advanced Kernel, Reboot
4. Flash Magisk V6 and PHH root, Reboot
5. install PHH Super from play store and Magisk Manager
Thanks for the tuto.
Of course you need to have Unlocked Bootloader, this is the principle of flashing a custom kernel. And systemless root like magisk needs custom kernel. With LB you will not boost after flashing a custom kernel.

thnx for this workaround. if you follow it to the letter, you should be fine, else it won't work, and you still get "cts profile match: false"
( it cost me 2 attempts because i flashed the kernel directly)
finally there is someone who desire to create specific systemless method with magisk for xperia device line
unfortunately I've tried earlier than this thread exist so I have to clearance to noob xperia user, here's my post
ryandxter said:
well well I'm here just to give specific classification / explanation about what is this projects do
I'm here to say that this method is about modifying boot partition to make systemless works (correct me if I'm wrong), since my device was Xperia Z3 then this require "unlocked bootloader" for any Xperia device in case to use custom boot.img script from this projects... please please OP underline this before another people from Xperia users with locked bootloader flash this projects, thanks
I'm already tried on myself almost hardbricking my phone and this isn't funny

that's mean xperia device line (no exception) need to be Unlocked Bootloader before flashing magisk otherwise the'll soft brick
hi mr @kotlin can you add this to OP for specific clarification?

and don't forget that unlocking the bootloader is easy, but your phone will be wiped clean.

Yes I installed Systemless Xposed from magisk thread, it works like a charm, hadn't any problems Did you followed all the steps? It's order is very important. You have unlocked bl? I just put info in op that it is necessary. For me toggle root was greyed out when i didn't properly flashed magisk to kernel, or after restoring kernel. Try to make backup and follow the steps again.

I'm coming from Xperia Z... not z3
can't be sure if the problem is coming from different advance stock kernel...
Thanks for sharing the steps...I will try again when I have time...
I finally got it working after several attempts. Everyting went well with unlocking the bootloader and installing the rom.
In magisk manager i got Selinux toggle working for me. I just cant use the root toggle. The toggle is on, and if i want to disable it it says: magisk manager is granted superuser acces. Then it turns the toggle back on. Should i not grant SU acces to the magisk manager or is there another problem?
I've had this working a while and even used Android Pay for the first time. However Viper4Android doesn't seem to be working well and sounds are too quiet do any existing mods still work or would they break SafetyNet?
