Hi guys. I was really tempted to root my Moto G5 (XT1675) and besides there is a thread giving instructions about how to install TWRP it doesn't give any indication about how to root the device. And there is one started by @Johny Cipeli here but he could not confirm the root installation in MOTO G5, as he only has a MOTO G5 PLUS. So as you see I wasn't very confident about rooting.
Well, I did it at the end and in resume I followed this guy's youtube guide https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZWLR8JnZ7z0 but instead of flashing the potter version of TWRP, I used the CEDRIC one. One important thing is that you should use the Magisk v11.6, don't use the newest one cause it didn't work for me (Magisk was working but not the root). Use the one that the guy attaches in the video. Anyway I put the magisk version here in the attachments (once you flash it you will have root automatically as it's shown in the YouTube video).

Nope. If you check the name of the file it starts with CEDRIC. The alias of our MOTO G5 is CEDRIC, and the one for the Moto G5 Plus is POTTER.
The link is for MOTO G5 CEDRIC
I successfully rooted my phone(CEDRIC) with this thread's tip + @johnycipeli's 'How to ROOT Moto G5's thread!

Iv spoken about this before - depending on your country rooting doesn't void warranty
In the UK you can root your phone & not void the warranty as long as what ever you do is not the direct cause of the fault
Companies may play hard ball but that's the European law - they have to prove rooting the phone caused the fault & if it's a hardware fault unless you stupidity over clocked something or flashed wrong firmware etc they can't prove it
Anyway the only person who can decide to root is you so no point asking

I rooted my Moto G (Android 4.3, german) with your video and all works fine.
But just in the moment, there come a message that I could upgrade to version 4.4. This I have done. However, the update process does not work. CWM will always report that the file is not signed. If I want to install them nevertheless, it aborts with an file error. Unfortunately, my phone now reboots after each start and tried to install the update. I need help! What can I do?

you can fastboot restore the device to 4.4.2 to get it updated or just install a rom like CM11 which is based on 4.4.2

What makes more sense for the future? Do I need to do anything complicated each time I update the original operating system?
If so, then I switch to CM.
I cannot install cm, because I have no chance to download the zip file. My phone constantly performs a reboot.
How can I fastboot restore the device to 4.4.2? Is there a way without lock the phone again? In your unbrick video you used a batch-file named "Restore US-retail_XT1032_KXB20.9-1.8-1.4_CFC.bat". Can I use the file also for german phones?

Depends on how you purchased it. If it's from Amazon with ads enabled, you're out of luck for the time being until one of the temp root methods find an exploit for the phone.
If you bought the normal version, then a TWRP version that works for your phone is in the works, and SuperSU works on pretty much any device with a custom bootloader because it's just sticking a su binary on the system partition and installing an app. Custom roms will be forthcoming when more of the developing-inclined members get their bootloaders unlocked lol

That's excellent news! I'm very close to talking moto into giving me a bootloader unlock despite having the Amazon ads. I basically complained that they are misleading people with the name "play" and advertising a pure Android experience making it seem like a true play edition phone, so knowing that I'll be able to root without compiling my own TWRP myself is great news.

Yes I followed squids twrp post and the twrp fix and works great. Now I may play with the filefactory images and see if one works with this variant. I'm sure a bell specific variant will come soon.
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

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.

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)
AOKP - Android Open Kang Project[6.0.1][Marshmallow]

[ROM][2016-09-17][Quarks][CM 13.0 Unofficial][6.0.1] (hybrid of CM13 and Resurrection Remix)
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.
[ROM][6.0.1][Stock][Odexed]MPG24.107-70.2 Brazilian 6.0.1 for XT1254[TWRP Flashable]

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.

Hi,
I'm comming from a Moto G4 (not plus) to Moto G5+... I know that without a custom kernel with proper wireless support the WIFI has troubles when rooting. This is true with the G4 with stock firmware, and seems to be equal with the G5.
So, at time, when you root the G5, you need to apply the "wlan_custom.zip". However, this writes a new custom kernel module (.ko) in the SYSTEM partition. But, if you modify the system partition, then you lose the OTAs.
As I like to be in stock with a full SYSTEMLESS phone (with Magisk), I request if someone has a solution for the WIFI.
Can someone compile/patch the kernel for make this "wlan_custom.zip" unnecesary?
Thank you! :fingers-crossed:
Just so you know you posted in the wrong thread
Hi,
Incorrect 'forum'. My question is for G5+, not G5 ! :crying:
I did not applied the "wlan_custom.zip" and the phone works very well
Haven't applied or even heard of a wlan_custom.zip file and my wifi works as expected.

Hi,
Thank you for your comment! Two points:
1) I ask for the G5+, I don't know if G5 has identical problem.
2) This problem is when rooting: you lose WIFI if you don't flash this ZIP.

Never heard of such a problem with the Moto G5+.
I'm rooted on stock 8.1 with Magisk since I own the device, did a lot of research for it but this WLAN issue seems to be related to the Moto G4.
Hi all.. The last device I rooted was an HTC EVO so it has been a while . I've been reading a lot and trying to catch up. I found both of these guides below to root the device. They both use a different approach. So I guess there's more than one way to do this, got it.. I guess I am just looking for some advice as to what is the most current/best way/safest to root the Tab S6 Lite. I have installed all updates provided by Samsung which has brought me to Android 11. I figured I should ask if the fact that I am already running android 11 could throw any monkey wrenches into the process of rooting it. It appears that Andoird 10 is expected within the guides. Can anyone recommend a guide for Android 11?
Thank you in advance.

I hate to say it, but I don't think using the discontinued TWRP is really too big of a deal. All things considered, it doesn't have too many bugs, and you can work around things like no adb sideload.
I just have a question. Do you think TWRP will ever be revived for this tablet, even an unoffifcial one? I mean, there seems to be a demand. Is it permanently discontinued or...?
Thanks all, will do some more homework

I've got an S6 Lite on the way - did you come up with a clean sequence?

No, I got stage fright at this point and figured the process isn't mature enough for my scenario, or I just didn't get pointed in the right direction. I think that part that concerned me was KNOX... something that didn't exist the last time I rooted an android phone (HTC EVO, yeah that long ago).

Thanks for replying. My S6 Lite is due to arrive today. I'll be trying to root my P610 with latest A11 firmware (US 2DUK1), with TWRP, will capture whatever I do.
Awesome! Much appreciated, I suspect there's many out there waiting for an updated guide.
I think twrp is not a good solution,check twice before flashing.
Rooted mine which is lte version,picked up latest from samfirm and patched AP with magisk,added rest of the files in odin from stock.
After flashing done,you must flash vbmeta and boot from stock packed in tar,to avoid error.
