So I decided to root my phone ...I used the latest Windroid toolkit ..now I was able to unlock the boot loader and install/flash TWRP. here is my issue when I click on the Flash SuperSU button I get this error "wrong device state ! please ensure that your device is in Android! any help on how to finish flashing it would be appreciated.
Windroid toolkit 3.1.0
Thanks
My best guess is that you're trying to root it from fastboot. Load it into recovery instead. If that doesn't work, change direction and figure out how to flash a stock Rom with root pre-installed or check chainfire for his rooting utilities.

Point you in the right direction? Don't use a toolkit...
Rooting is simple on Moto devices:
1) Unlock bootloader
2) Flash TWRP
3) In TWRP, go to Advanced - Terminal
4) Enter "echo SYSTEMLESS=true>>/data/.supersu"
5) Flash latest SuperSU in TWRP+
6) Reboot and enjoy the rooty goodness
That's it.

That works, although I usually recommend: https://download.chainfire.eu/supersu/ to get the latest version, and you need to get it on the phone somehow, you can't root with it on your computer.

Sweet that did it ...thanks for all your help guys
I also used the Windroid toolkit and I have exactly the same problem as muelo1000, however all the help here did not solve the problem. I can flash SuperSU but after rebooting I get a black screen just after the Motorola logo. It's completely stuck. I can boot into TWRP or bootloader but that's it. Any help or advice would be welcome? Thanks.

Can someone please direct me to the a step by step guide on how to Root and put CM7 on the Nexus S i9020a variant? Most of the stickies are for the T-mobile version and Its getting to be a bit confusing on which guide to follow. Please help this noobie!!!
use gingerbreak then rom manager it's that simple
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1044765
Quick note once you install CM7 do not use the 2g/3g feature it will break your 3g
Break 3g? as in damage it permanently? Thanks for the link for gingerbreak so basically that will root my nexus s then I can install CM 7 with out any special instructions since it has different radio compared to the tmobile version?
i used gingerbreak then rom manager to install clockwork recovery and CM7. Do some reading the 3g bug for I9020A has been discussed a few times. Just stay away from the 2g/3g toggle and everything will be fine. I don't think it permanently breaks it just is a pain in the A to fix. I have a I9020A and this was the simplest way I've found.
don't we have to flash a clockwork compatible kernel first, before flashing cm7?
Also, doesn't clockwork rom manager fail on sns? I have cwr from the main stickies, but rom manager doesn't see it (it works), and can't download roms, unless cwr from rom manager, which I heard fails.

So I downloaded CM7 7.0.2 - and gapps - flashed in order (nandroid first) and voila! no hastle! This ROM is great!
No, those are the only steps i took
CM7 comes with its own AOSP kernel. Just flash the rom, you'll get the kernel bundled. (Of course you can always use a great kernel from the developers thread) don't forget to flash gapps.

He means don't use the 2g/3g toggle widget as that will cause some problems, it hasn't been fixed yet. If you do want to change it though, do it manually through the settings.

I tried using gingerbreak on my i9020a but it runs for longer than 15 mins so I guess it doesn't work. What are my other options for rooting?
edit: I guess it's because I installed 2.3.6.. is it possible to downgrade easily?

Follow one of the root guides, all you really need to do is unlock the bootloader and install Clockwork Recovery.
Once that is done, download the zip for cm7 and use CWM to flash it.

Agreed, but it's a matter of getting the correct CWM image for our phones. Also, for people who are setting up their phones for the first time, the drivers needed for fastboot need to be installed, fastboot/SDK needs to be downloaded etc...
Hence why i referenced the rooting guides.

Yep, it's just the color you want your recovery to be. I flashed the cyan a couple of days ago for somebody else and no issues.. typical clockwork recovery
So I flashed the recovery file, but when I boot into recovery now, there's just the triangle with the ! in it and nothing happens.. did I do something wrong?

How did you flash it? That's the stock recovery.. should be 'fastboot flash recovery nameof.img' without quotes obviously.

There are two methods to root Android N .
Method 1
Flash the Supersu.zip from custom recovery.
RC-SuperSU-v2.69-20160313161431.zip
Method 2
This method will work without custom recovery , just download it and go the fastboot and follow the steps .
CF-Auto-Root-bullhead-bullhead-nexus5x-NPC56P.zip
Just download the file
Extract it
reboot your Nexus 5X into bootloader
Now open the root-windows(If you are using windows otherwise select the file which is for your operating system)
Now the command window will open and ask you to enter any key to continue
Then press any key from your keyboard and it will automatically done the remaining process and your phone will reboot
If you device got bootloop then poweroff the device once and power on manually
Thats it you will see the SuperSu icon .
If you like hit the thanks ......

As i know the method for root our phone is system mode, the systemless zip not work
Here the procedure that i followed for rooting my phone and is system mode
What you need:
Unlocked bootloader (see chapter 2).
TWRP installed (see chapter 7).
1.Zip .
2.Zip .
How:
Put 1.zip and 2.zip into your sd card/internal storage.
Boot into TWRP.
Ignore the message from TWRP.
Choose the "install" button.
Locate 1.zip (if on sd card go "up a level" and then "external sdcard" there you should find it).
Install it.
Reboot your phone.
Boot into TWRP again.
Locate 2.zip .
Install it.
Reboot
That's just the initial bootloader unlock and root method.
I used same method but later flashed custom rom witch also comes rooted. I have also unrooted and then rerooted systemless mode with SuperSU zip.

3 months since your last contact....
Things have changed a lot and android pay is working hard for avoid us pay with rooted phones.
Nowadays magisk is on v9 version and facing v10.
Want a clue?
If your mobile is compatible with multirom go this way. One rom rooted and modified as you want and another stock for doing payments.

Try to find an older firmware version that can be flashed with Odin. Usually system updates patch exploits commonly used by one-click root apps, and only an older build will fix the issue. Hope this helps.

Okay thanks ☺
Hello sir
Follow my steps for successful TWRP/ROOT
1.)Download and install Samsung USB Drivers
2.)Download TWRP 3.0.2.0
3.)Download Odin
4.)Download SuperSU.zip file
For download links message me or add me on facebook facebook. com/fRoD.cs
After you complete this 4 steps shutdown your phone and enter into Download Mode
Volume Down + Power + Home
Select continue by Volume Up key
Now connect phone with usb cable into pc and run Odin as administrator
Click on AP box and select the twrp.tar file you download before
Go to Options tab and uncheck Auto Reboot, make sure that only F, Reset Time is checked and click start
After successfully installed TWRP , remove the battery, put it back and make sure that you go into recovery mode immediately!!! Volume Up + Power + Home
If you boot up the phone it will restore the original recovery. Thats why you need to go to recovery mode first.
First time you boot in recovery it will be shown a TWRP screen asking to allow modifications to system partition. Swipe to accept that.
Now select Install option and select SuperSU.zip file. By default it should be in Download folder, and swipe to start install
After installing click reboot and your SM-G361F will be rooted. You should have SuperSU app in the menu
