Ok seeing as I'm in the same path as you were I need more clarifications. I've done tenfar's steps but when I downnload root checker on play store it says my phone isn't rooted. Can you check?

I wouldn't use his root and I would unlock the bootloader and flash SuperSU. I'm currently waiting on a usable cm build, so I am on stock right now. Phh doesn't work for some apps (which is what tenfar uses)

Did you install PHH superuser? The root checker checks for root access, but without the app to tell the phone to give root checker root access it just fails

IF YOU ARE on B29 try this
* Download ZTE_A2017U.B29_StockSystem_by_DrakenFX.zip.
* Boot to TWRP (which i assume you have it)
* Wipe Cache - Dalvik - Data - System
* Flash ZTE_A2017U.B29_StockSystem_by_DrakenFX.zip
* Reboot (may show a Message about NO OS been install just continue with restart)
hope that help

Thanks for the response! Appreciate it. One question though, whenever I boot into recovery it asks for my password when my phone doesn't utilize any sort of code lock. Does that signify a problem?

Also, how do I put the files in my internal storage if I don't have SD card? Sideloading?
Ok, I've usued adb push for the zip file and found out how to flash it. One problem: it says unable to mount storage...

Can't run ROOT after Doom updates

Hey all,
So I've managed to upgrade to FW 4, Doom's latest kernel, & Doom's autoroot also. Thanks Doom
I still can't seem to get root working. When I go in to Superuser to try to update, I get the following:
su-2.3.1-bin-signed.zip
reboot into recovery and flash it
I can't reboot into recovery (not sw cuz it's not rooted, hitting back key when powering on ignores me).
Anyone else know what I could try?
If you flashed to 4.0 first, then autoroot, then use kernel you will keep root and data.

Logseman told me to flash 4, kernel, then autoroot. Is this the wrong order? Have I lost my chance to root until Doom releases a new kernel?
I kept my data ok, just lost root... which is pants cuz the bloatware needs wiped before my sanity does :-/

If you have superuser you are rooted, if your using doomlords kernel there is no need to auto root as it comes with root. you dont need to update the app just the binaries, but you have the latest version with doomlords kernel so an update is not needed
worst comes to the worst, connect your device to flashtool and hit root

Thanks for taking the time to reply.
I agree, def still rooted because i can delete sys apps through root explorer. I can't get Titanium to run - it reports I'm not rooted. Their "problems" link me to update Superuser but it compains re my 1st post that it can't update.
I uninstalled su, new install is 2.3.6.3 but it still refuses the update. Why I can't get into safe mode by hitting the back key on boot is strange too.
Don't know how to run Root from Flashtool, it's greyed out & sounds like I might lose data?
More idea's welcome

When you install supersu it lists in output that it's being installed as systemless?

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.
Luck!

Flash it via TWRP then? TWRP supports flashing .img too if you need to. :|

Just sayin bro...
And btw some things just dont work well without a PC. Even though it might be possible to work around it you might just wanna do this on a computer with these commands in adb:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
and
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
and then reboot

I tried to flash via twrp. It said that the install was succesful, but when i tried to go to recovery i got black screen
Why would you want cwm? TWRP is way better. Oh and your recovery is gone. You can be lucky that you didn't brick your phone. Next time, use TWRP instead and ONLY if you have the ability to restore everything with a PC. ONLY make such hard modifications to your phone if you have a PC nearby
Confirm that you're fully rooted using something like Root Checker

Im sure im fully rooted
Ok, I suspect something may be wrong with your root or TWRP or ROM, which may be the reason for the odd problems.
So do check & confirm root anyway, & also tell us the versions of your TWRP & ROM (latter in Settings > About phone > Build number).

This goes on Questions and Answers
You can fix it easily with a command. I assume that you have ADB on your computer, if not download the 15 seconds ADB installer
Connect your phone to your computer, enable USB debugging. Open CMD with admin privileges (just in case). Issue 'adb devices', if the phone appears, you're good to go. Otherwise check that the phone is unlocked, do it again, and allow the connection if a dialog appears.
Issue 'adb reboot disemmcwp' and you should be done

Oh I hate that. The only fix I found was to reinstall the system (full wipe, then reinstall). If you find a way to fix it without doing thay, please tell!

You obviously have to wipe everything. Use DrakenFX's files if you have an A2017U (over at the custom stuff thread). The version numbers are so different that I have no idea what Nougat for the U is...

You will more than likely need to format data. This will cause you to loose everything. But that is what you are seeing, those folders, are your data. Just encrypted.
Also make sure you are on the latest version of TWRP. Sometimes the older unsupported version had encryption errors.
Omg this saddens me! So there's no way I am unable to at least retrieve my pictures?

First time entering in twrp after flashing update, I did not get folder to flash magisk, did a reboot and get it, just a bad encryption code I think
Did u flash rom or anything else before getting this problem ?
Yup, I sure did! 4am couldn't sleep so I thought I would finally put a fingerprint mod on; which I have done this before with no issues. For the life of me, I don't remember which mod I tried to install thru Magisk.
My phone is currently stuck on "Phone is starting"
I also think it's time to look into some sort of automatic back up service..... Got any ideas?

Use msmdownloadtool, have u tried using magisk uninstall in twrp with zip file ? Then boot and uninstall the "****in" fantastic module... maybe it works
I did try to uninstall Magisk in twrp using adb shell. I never had any luck with that msmdownloadtool and not only that it relocks your bootloader.

Good luck !!
I saw this happen when I used the official TWRP app.
It went away when I used this TWRP. Hope that helps.
I'm glad you already know not to use the MSM tool. Too many people jump straight to this.....
You just need to boot the correct recovery and your data will decrypt, and you will be able to back it up to a PC, then you can reload your ROM via TWRP or Fastboot to get the phone bootable again. So now it's a question of what ROM were you running before. Do you need a recovery with the latest security patch or something older? What TWRP are you running. Try 3.3.1-6 psychen6 linked too first. Boot that image from Fastboot. See if your password/pin will work to decrypt your data.
