So in the Note 4 Dev page "http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60610290&postcount=173" they have achieved root on KK (4.4.4) by using King Root. Unfortunately due to the status of the locked boot loader on the Note 4, it is only temp and will unroot the phone after a reboot. Has anyone with a Note 3 tried using King Root yet? And if so, do you only have temp root like the N4?
King Root works on generic 32 bit phones. Note 3 is a 32-bit phone
Instructions w/APK from another post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=60612907&postcount=183
It failed on 4.4.4 NK1.
After the reboot, the app ran again automatically but failed again.
Now I'm uninstalling the app.

I have been reading up on the Note 4 forum on Xda and people are saying that it may take couple tries before root access is granted. *Must be online for the app to work, as it connects to their servers to see what exploits can be used to root the phone.
I m on 4.4.4 NJ6, i tried to root with kingroot but it seens that doesn't work
can also confirm that nk1 it did not work. I've even gone as far as trying the pingpong root and the root that the xperia recently got. We are all desperate.
Have any of you guys try opening king user after using kingroot and grant root permissions to something like root checker or does the app just fail while trying to obtain root?

I've tried using root checker after multiple root attempts and reboots and it always fails to verify.
I've tried King Root v4.1. Didn't work on NK1.

I can second that.
I can third that
kingroot wasn't able to root it in either attempt I made, 4.4.4 or 5.0 . I tried with both the android apk and the pc version. Its possible that it requires multiple attempts (its all in chinese so who knows what exploits it is trying)
I just got a replacement device and it came with 4.4.4 so I am hoping to find something to root. there doesn't seem to be anything that works yet.

Thanks for the update on your attempts, ACalcutt.
That's right, it is in Chinese. Who here can read it? I, for one, am curious to learn which exploits it is attempting.
Any updates on this? I have an opportunity to get a Note 3 with NJ6 on it for free from a friend... will Kingroot work? I've kept my finger on the pulse of the Note 4 forums, and I'd do kingroot and then supersume, if it would work.
Thanks!

Greetings!
As of today there is a method to completely unlock the bootloader on all variants (yes, this includes the Verizon and AT&T models). The one stipulation is you need to have root.
DISCLAIMER #0: This is NOT MY WORK. I'm merely posting steps to use other peoples' work (with permission) in order to achieve an unlocked device. Do not donate to me for this. Any donations sent to me for this post will be promptly returned and you will be publicly shamed, most likely Game of Thrones style, for not reading the entire OP and following directions.
DISCLAIMER #1: Unlocking your device is dangerous! I am in no way responsible for anything that happens to you, your device, your significant other, or any random person that you feel the need to harm after this destroys your device! You are making the decision to run these tools and you alone are responsible for the consequences!
DISCLAIMER #2: As of right now this method has ONLY been tested on variants running kitkat (4.4) roms/bootloaders. Do not be the first to try it on a lollipop version without first understanding the risks. If you try and successfully use this method on lollipop (5.x) please let me know so I adjust this post accordingly.
DISCLAIMER #3: Do not attempt to re-lock your bootloader after using Sunshine. It is unclear how the device will act and you may end up with one of these.
PREFACE:
- You're going to want adb and fastboot set up on your computer. If you don't know what these are, or don't know how to set them up, google it. Having these tools is insanely helpful anyway for debugging and getting logs for developers later. You're going to want these in the long run.
- This method in the end is going to set you back $25. Sunshine is the tool used to unlock the bootloader and the people that develop this spend insane amounts of time developing/breaking/buying devices. Trust me, its worth it.
- Enable Unknown sources in Settings > Security before starting
STEP 1: Root (This root method only works on 4.4. If you are already rooted, say via mofo or another method, you may skip to step 2)
- You just skipped to this step didn't you? Go read the disclaimers and the preface. They are extremely important.
- Root your phone using KingRoot (obviously click the image with the little android guy on it) mirror
Code:
adb install -r <filename>.apk
- Run it from your app drawer and follow the prompts. I did have it fail a couple times, if that happens, try rebooting and running it again. I also had it say it failed a couple times, but still was able to gain root by typing 'su' in an adb shell.
- KingRoot is a temp root, which means upon a reboot, you will lose root and need to run it again. That's fine for our purposes here, it gives us the in we need for the bootloader exploit (see step 2)
STEP 2: Unlock That Bootloader
- This step involves running an app called Sunshine. Download the apk from there and install it:
Code:
adb install -r <filename>.apk
- Again, this unlock will cost you a one time fee of $25, more info on their FAQ. There seems to be a lot of animosity about this, but in the end the choice is yours. An extreme amount of development time goes in to these types of exploits and these guys do a fantastic job. It is worth it.
- Follow the prompts, get out the wallet, and enjoy an unlocked bootloader!
STEP 3: Install a custom recovery
- This could be considered an optional step, but there's really no reason to go through all of this if you don't plan to do some custom things. Custom recovery allows you to install/backup/restore ROMs on your phone.
- Follow the instructions here now that you have an unlocked bootloader in order to install TWRP.
STEP 4: Enjoy!
- You now have a completely unlocked phone! Start installing roms, enjoy yourself! Be careful though! Make sure you are only flashing things that are known to work on this device.
SunShine 3.1.16 is out, better support for MotoX 2014, including custom roms
Just ran Sunshine 3.1.17 on my 5.1 XT1097 rooted via MoFo, device is unlocked and working flawlessly.

Only way to know is try if okay with the risks.
We talked about it in the general thread. Sometimes it even works on other devices running 5.1.1 (even not officially supported). I cannot assume the risk being my only phone to try.
Visi0nofExcellence2 said:
There are posts of it working for other devices. It will fail a couple of times and then just work. Also cases where the phone won't boot anymore. More of the latter now.
Not attempting and I suggest others dont either. Risk outweighs rewards with this being my main phone.

Any known root methods for 5.1 yet? AT&T Moto X via OTA.
I have tried both kingroot and mofo. Neither work for the xt1097 att variant on 5.1. However looking on some pages on xda noticed that the xt1097 from Brazil has the same specs as the att variant. The files look pretty much the same as well. Do you think it would be possible to flash the 5.1 Brazil to the att without bricking? Bootloader is also the same. Flash the Brazil over the att and then try Motorola unlock tool online

It won't work. You can't flash the firmware from other carriers with a locked bootloader. It will fail when you try.
Sent from my XT1095 using Tapatalk
Only firmware you can flash with a locked bootloader has to contain the same signature of the firmware your on, which is literally only that firmware. EG. ATT 5.1 sig does not match any other sig.
Yes I realised that after doing research. Butbim wondering if we were able to change the cid to lets say the Brazil variant if we would be able to flash the firmware. If we could maybe change the cid from dfs software or GSM tools software and then try to flash the firmware if it would work. If someone knew how to change the cid without root I wouldn't mind trying it out to see if it would work. I'm planning on buying the moto x pure edition that comes out on Sept 2 but i f I was able to unlock the bootloader then I wouldn't really mind waiting on a new phone for another year since the moto x 2014 is really a great phone and with root has alot of potential
Same problem, you can't do that either without root and bootloader unlocked. There is no way to do it until someone can find a vulnerability in the 5.1 firmware. For now you are stuck.
Sent from my XT1095 using Tapatalk
I don't understand. Motorola officially provides the way to unlock bootloaders. Why does this method exist? Does this method help unlock bootloaders of devices that cannot be unlocked or something like that?
Yes, this is only for the Verizon xt1096 and the AT&T xt1097. Those 2 models cannot unlock their bootloader from motorola's website. This is a method to get around that and unlock it anyway.
Sent from my XT1095 using Tapatalk
So I have a Verizon model XT1096 running 5.0.
From the searches I've performed and from what I've read so far, Root can be achieved via Mofo (kingroot failed) and then I can unlock the bootloader via sunshine and then flash TWRP, flash a 5.1.1 ROM and I'm good to go?
There are several threads with a little info here and there, so I apologize for the questions. I just want to get my ducks in a row.

I'm sure there's been many posts on how to root this device before. But my S5 is AT&T, and just received the Marshmallow update last week. Not to mention the last samsung I had attempted to root (S4, 4.4.1 kitkat) didn't end too well.
Can anyone give me links to forums OR if you know how to root my device, care to help me?

You'll not get root access on that s5 active if it's on marshmallow due to the bootloader being locked. I have one and the only reason I have root on it is because I still have the OC5 bootloader on it so it will forever be on TMS5. Sorry buddy.

I do believe they have a way to downgrade back to lollipop now and get root access on lollipop but you will need to check your build version/number and see if it matches the one in their instructions. Here's one for s5active which is what I have but I don't see the one for s5. On another note my g870 build has been g900 for as long as I've had it.

Hello Guys,I have Successfully rooted my motorola droid turbo su4tl-49 without using sunshine or moforoot.I did by first using vroot then iroot then kingoroot then atlast i tried kingroot apk downloaded from kingroot.In 3rd attempt my cell phone was rooted successfully.
I have rooted set.Can i install xposed framework in it without unbricking it?
Can i also unlock its bootloader?
I am able to delete system files like verizon cloud app ,amazon kindle etc.
It doesnot work if you will use directly kingroot,you must try all these app first.i tried this on two turbo sets
Whoever wants to know step by step i can guide you how to root this.root fix occur every time by kingroot but remains rooted.
I have not installed adaway or xposed or twrp i dont want to be brick.need help to do this
I tried this on 2 turbo still result the same.its because i used many exploits .
I can give proof and can live explain to me if someone wants proof i can show i am not lying.u can send me your whatsapp or imo contact,i will show you rooting it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jBEa9Q__AeM&feature=youtu.be
Please watch this video as a voice recording how i did this
And when you reboot, it's still rooted? It's not hard to have temp root but doesn't do any good since you can't really write to system to make changes.
With unlocked bootloader you can have permanent root.
Excuse us for being very skeptical.
when i reboot its still rooted
OMG!! Are you sure you still have root?

You still haven't convinced us it's permanent root that can make permanent changes to system. Install Adaway. Install Xposed and modules. Install TWRP custom recovery so you can flash zipped files. Install SuperSu. Do that and report back to us.

Either something is rerunning a temproot each time, or he has a device that for some reason has no write protection (engineering device, already unlocked or bad flash controller).
If the first one, its not going to last with the mm patch, nor would it remain stable. Many things will just break.
If the second one, then its specific to his phone.
really? i got a Droid Turbo for less than 100 bucks and it came with Lollipop and as far i know Motorola is not open for rooting or unlocking bootloaders...

Motorola not open for rooting or unlocking bootloader? Where did you get that idea? Yes they are. You get free unlock codes from Motorola -- unless you have a Verizon model.
It's Verizon, not Motorola that is the problem. They demand the locked down bootloader. All my Quarks have free bootloader unlock, straight from Motorola. They are very helpful.
But Sunshine paid exploit takes care of the Verizon problem. How do you think this phone has 9 Marshmallow ROMs, and a Nougat ROM? I'm not even counting all the custom Lollipop ROMs. Bootloader unlock and root, baby.
This guy says he rooted (permanently) without unlocking the bootloader through Sunshine. Which is impossible with the Droid Turbo, unless he has a magical phone (previously unlocked, and he didn't know or some hardware flaw that allowed it.)

Here's the current custom Nougat (7.x) Quark ROMs to choose from. More will be coming!
[ROM][7.X][All quark] crDroid Android
That ROM started on 7.0 right now, and is already 7.1.
Here's the current custom Marshmallow (6.0.1) Quark ROMs to choose from:
[ROM][All Quark][6.x.x]Resurrection Remix
Bliss Rom 6.4 by Team Bliss
[ROM][6.0.1][OFFICIAL][QUARK] MoKee OpenSource Project
[Rom] NEXUS EXPERIENCE 10.4 [MotoMaxx] (recently updated to Marshmallow)

That list is in no particular order.
_________________________
You can also install a Marshmallow stock ROM released by Motorola for the Brazilian Quark. @iiWoodstocK adapted it so it runs on ANY Quark, including the XT1254 Droid Turbo or XT1250 U.S. Moto Maxx (clone of the XT1254). It will use YOUR radio, whatever you have installed.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/droid-turbo/development/rom-mpg24-107-70-2-brazilian-6-0-1-t3426234
I didn't include it in the list above, because while technically it is a custom ROM, the only "customization" was to allow it to be flashed via TWRP and to allow it to be used on ALL Quarks: XT1254/XT1250/XT1225. Otherwise, it's pure Motorola Marshmallow stock which was officially released for a Quark phone.
iiWoodstocK said:
this ROM is just factory Marshmallow with a modded build.prop. I didn't include any radio in the .zip, so it uses whatever is currently on the device. Aside from my build.prop tweaks, this ROM is even usable for Brazilian XT1225 users, but the device will say it's a Droid Turbo and contain useless CDMA build.prop lines.

Not at all. AFAIK, you don't have to regret erasing that e-mail at all. The Sunshine exploit must be paid once per device, so it would have been useless anyway
Is there a way to root the galaxy tab E that comes from AT&T? I've found a TWRP image for the SM-T377P version but nothing for SM-T377A which is what I have. I was thinking they might be cross compatible but if they were, I'm sure TWRP would have listed it on their site.
The option to OEM unlock is in the dev settings list so I'm thinking I can flash the recovery but I'm not sure on that.

Worst tablet ever. Att can't even get their software updates right. I can't use this as a phone because the stupid number sync software keep giving an error and no one at att knows how to fix it. I've tried different dialers and freezing them. Nothing works. Now I have com.android.phone is not responding and their is no firmware download anywhere to fix it. Now I have to factory reset the whole damn tablet lol. I'm going to sell the and get a Sprint unlocked version. What a shame. This tablet had potential too

You can Google "replace Kingroot with supersu". There is a 4 step method for replacing the temp Kingroot with chainfires SuperSu. Even if bootloader is locked. Just found one of these in Facebook marketplace for $50.

Anyone flashed t377p on t377a?

I think this tablet sucks, too. AT&T hoodwinked me into getting this thing, and now I'm stuck with it for 2 years. It's slow and choppy--I'd rather have an iPad. My "Next" contract is just about up, and I can't wait to dump their ass for another carrier.
Agree. Hoodwink is exactly what they did. This tablet is SLOW and the bloatware is chewing up RAM. I'm about to dump it for something else. Was hoping to be able to root it so I could kill off some of the bloat, but no joy....

I knew I should have checked here first... but at least I can return it... I figured a device of its age would for sure have custom roms and root. Stupid at&t! Guess I'm back on the search for a LTE tablet that works on at&t for under $300
Hi, recently I bought a cheap AT&T Tab E. It has only 4GB internal storage instead of 16, weird? The tab is almost useless because it has almost no space for new files/apps. Anyone knows what's wrong with the tab? Thanks

The problem solved after a factory reset.

Totally new to rooting in general, and researching isn't going well as I don't have any context/experience yet...and the vocabulary is new. I have (literally just bought a few days ago) this version of the Tab E...and I'm trying to root it so I can use it more effectively as a head unit in my 03 F150. I'm finding out I bought the wrong unit to do this reasonably easily.
Would you mind posting a quick walkthrough of how this works? Install KingRoot and then replace it with Supersu to get the tablet permarooted?
Thanks!

Not a big fan of youtube instructional videos, first one available, not sure if its good........

This is a guide with a one-click .bat file to supposedly do this:

Directions for manual replacement:

Remember, this is for you replacing "TEMP ROOT", not when a device is permanently rooted! This means being in the position of Kingroot barely getting temporary root that will be lost when device is rebooted!!! It involves using Flashify (by Chainfire as well) and authorizing it's root ability to flash.
As in every OP on XDA, do so at "YOUR OWN RISK".........
