Unable to install SuperSU, on MM stuck on boot. - X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello there,
I thought that there were more people with this problem, but I've this problem: first off, I got stock MM installed on my Style xt1572. Unlocked bootloader and the latest TWRP. But when I try to install SuperSU via TWRP, it just get stuck before the reboot animation. Any idea's what I could try perhaps?
Edit: Solution is just using the SuperSU in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-style/general/xt1572-mm-twrp-root-xposed-t3276792
Thanks.

Did you select install SuperSU when twrp asked ? After flashing newest supersu?

Which SuperSU version are you using?

Men i have the same problem and i dont know what to do :/

@patt yes.
@Doktaphex The one TWRP asked me to install and the latest beta. 2.49. Same problem.

Depending on the version of SuperSU that you are using there are 2 different rooting methods.
My suggestion would be to use the systemless root option here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64161125&postcount=3
v2.65 is what you want. When you flash this in twrp it will automatically patch the boot image on your device (whilst also creating a backup of the original). It sounds as though you are both trying to use a version of SuperSU that implements the standard rooting method, this would mean that you must manually flash a modified boot image in order to bypass Android 6.0's internal system modification checks!

Flash the stock boot.img. Then see if it boots. Then ^^^ this^^^

Do not allow twrp to attempt to install superSU
IMPORTANT!!!!
Because you have already allowed twrp to do this, you will need to reflash your system partition to ensure that all traces of that version of SuperSU are removed before you flash the newer version.
I hope this helps you guys.

Yes.. But as you can see, I've done that already. But I got a restore without it. But even if I install that latest beta, the problem still presumes.

Sorry, I should have been more clear in my instructions. I would go ahead and reflash the rom that you want to use and then flash superSU v2.65.
Reboot and if twrp asks if you want it to install superSU choose the option for it NOT to do so.

I'M on stock! And that restore tool is for Pure, not Style! And I don't want to install a custom rom. Stock rom is still fine for me.

Also tried Kingo root funny enough, but no go.

TWRP will not work on the OTA, yet. However, there is a working CWM in the HD forum. I flashed it to my M and have zero issues with it.

I flashed the CWM recovery too...it does boot to recovery
but it seems to be some problem with CM11 package, the assert check shows my device ID is empty so the recovery just abort the installation.
I want to flash CM11-m6 snapshot....any ideas?

CM11 won't work if you've updated. Apparently, the boot loader is updated and the ROMs haven't been updated for it.

You have an unlocked BL, just flash SU to get root, and delete/freeze apps. That's pretty much what I did and used Xposed on top of that.
I haven't tried it yet, buy couldn't you just rsd back to an earlier build then flash your custom ROM?

I fastboot flash the lastest CWM recovery, but it didn't work for the CM 4.4.2 ROM, and twrp, it didn't work again. why? does the VFW rom change something?

It means that none of the ROMs out right now will work with the new CWM. Also, quit trying flash TWRP. TWRP is not compatible with the new KK, yet.
Got it, many thanks

My xt907 Has the OTA 4.4 update and an unlocked BL. I don't have a custom recovery installed anymore. Is it possible to flash SU or superuser and get root with fastboot. If so. Please help! Thanks. I'm ok with flashing CWN if need be. I just want root to install a Xposed and remove bloatware.

I'm pretty sure you can use fastboot/ADB to sideload zips, though I'm not super familiar with the commands so I wouldn't know how to explain it to you.
I am familiar enough with the commands, but I am unable to find the zips to flash. any help would be great.
Thanks,
Egg all over the face
I was one of the people who thought it would be cool to update to the OTA immediately without waiting and reading... I got the CWM recovery going and rooted stock 4.2.2 , but I really cant wait for TWRP to get updated so I can get back to my Rom, or really any supported Rom would be better then stock. I have only myself to blame.

Rooting Stock XT1575 MM

Hey guys. Im running stock MM with unlocked bootloader. I was able to flash twrp on but when I try to install superuser 2.46 through twrp I am stuck at the logo screen when I reboot. Is there something else that needs to be done to root this phone?
I also noticed that every time I boot into twrp it prompts me with the "keep system read only?" dialog. I "allow modifications" every time.
I used a systemless root on M. BETA-SuperSU-v2.62-20151210170034 for sure works.

Not really. I think the automation is changing in the newer versions. 2.65 tries to decide between systemless and traditional root somehow. 2.62 definitely works on the mxpe. I've heard 2.64+ do not.
How were you able to flash twrp on MM? I have tried the guides and have not been able to boot into recovery. Any advise?

The only real trick I'm aware of is that you have to boot straight into TWRP from the bootloader. Don't reboot into your rom after fastboot flashing the custom recovery. Use the volume buttons to select start recovery and power button to start it. If you reboot into your stock rom your recovery will get replaced.
Flash SuperSU once you get into recovery, and that should make TWRP "stick".
Some people have said to reboot to recovery from recovery once the first time you boot into TWRP before rebooting to system. I'm not entirely sure that is required, but I did do it and TWRP stayed working for me.
One other thing, every time I've flashed SuperSU 2.62 my phone seems to bootloop once after the moto logo on the first boot. Don't panic. This seems to be normal, just let it go. The second time it will boot normally.
I tried both and it would simply not boot into twrp

Veuro: Are you flashing TWP 2.8.7.1? as soon as you flash and it says ok, open Recovery.
I am flashing just like the guides say.. I'm on MM original rom

Has anyone been successful rooting mm?

Are you unlocked?
Yes I'm unlocked. I finally figured it out using the systemless root guide, but it was a little confusing at first
Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk
Would you mind explaining what you did? All of the instructions I've found for systemless root use files associated with variants besides the US version which is what I'm trying to root.
Edit: Never mind figured it out! For those of you that are confused, the only version of SuperSU that works for a stock systemless root is 2.62-3. Simply fastboot TWRP then install that version of SuperSU through TWRP and you're good to go.

How to keep permanent root?

So I have converted my Note for to developer and have an unlocked bootloader and installed TWRP through Odin. I have tried a few times to gain root by installing SuperSU through TWRP, but it just manages to keep looping my phone after it installs. Is there a way to install SuperSU without doing it through TWRP as I think that's the problem?
Also I wouldn't be able to install a ROM until I gain root correct?
Thank you for all of your help

So yea.I don't mean to hijack this thread or anything, but I'm having thebsane issue. I've converted to Dev edition, installed TWRP, and am currently running CM 13. However, whenever I try to use an app that requires root, it says that I don't have root.
I've tried flashing the latest Super SU in recovery, downloading Super SU from the play store, and I've tried flashing the Emotion kernel (when i try to flash that, my screen goes black and I'm returned to my recovery home)
What pre rooted ROMs are out?
And are my issues rooting because I flashed a 6.0,1 ROM before getting permanent root?

Cool, thanks got it to work!
Now my only issue is that once I was rooted and everything I wanted to flash CM13.
I shut down my phone and went into TWRP, I restored and the tried to install CM13+Gapps and it just went into a black screen and started over. I rebooted, but now I'm in a boot loop.
So I am going to start over and regain root, but do you know if I did something incorrectly? How would I go about it? Thank you.

Hmm im not sure (i'm running stock + Emotion kernel). But if you want to go CM13, you dont need to flash the Emotion kernel.
EDIT: you did a full factory reset (via recovery) before you flashed CM13 right?

Yes I did, but I had the Emotion Kernal installed. That's probably why, I'm going to attempt right now to flash SuperSu then CM13.

Cm13 is pre-rooted, root is embedded in the rom, superSu isn't needed, you can turn it on in developer settings.

Yea, try with stock kernal. I don't think you need to flash SS when flashing CM13 though
For me, when I try to flash CM13 through TWRP it'll get to saying "MTP Enabled" in the terminal window, then black screens for a few seconds, and reboots to TWRP. It also doesn't flash CM13, and I'm at a loss for what to do

A factory reset isn't going to help in this case. The reason you are stuck on the M logo is because marshmallow requires a modified boot.img. SuperSU 2.49 is an older version and does not do that. SuperSU 2.62-3 works for pretty much everyone on here. I would use it. But anyways, your best option would be to download that version on a PC or laptop and transfer it to internal storage or external sdcard and flash it in TWRP. The second option would be to reflash the system.img for your specific device. Then root with 2.62-3.
