hi people,
i am on firmware 800d20y, just bought the d800 today. i did the 'brute force' method, which initially worked, but after a short while, i lost root access. I literally have no idea what happened, the stump root app still says 'device is rooted', but the root checker app says i don't have root access. I tried a couple of different apps to check for root access, but to no avail.
any help, ANY at all to get root would help immensely! I'm trying to get a custom recovery (prob twrp) so i can flash a cm12 nightly rom...
im still a little new to this, any help would be appreciated!
You could try LGroot

no, it keeps asking to update the binary, which never works.

Try to flash supersu through recovery
Do you mean through a custom recovery, or the stock one? I'm only asking because I don't have a custom recovery yet. And if you mean through the stock recovery, I don't know how to do that :/

Please let me know if you are able to root it. I am wondering if other universal rooting methods work with this phone.
Everything worked fine, you don`t need wondering...it`s Chainfire who developes here! Schould work on all phones (inkluding A VErsion) from Android Lolliopop and higher!

Trust me, I've done it without root. I had xposed installed before with root then I flashed the latest stock rom from n915w8 and flashed xposed right after without wiping data and it worked. I guess it was because the xposed modules were already configured but ultimately, I did not root in order to use xposed. The functionality of xposed is increased if you root. This is from my experience
The latest xposed for Samsung probably has some loop hole I'm unaware of that allows you to install it without root.

the boot-loader is not unlocked for n915a currently, how can we install twrp? or you mean install supersu by odin without twrp?
step 2... Install latest twrp... How can you do that if your phone has never been rooted before?
for my note edge sprint (915p) i used CWM cos twrp didnt work. after flashing supersu said i dont have root access and if i would like to have it. I SELECTED NO. after rebooting once phone booted fine. took a while for supersu to take over things and now its all good

Do you by any chance have the latest twrp (2.8.0.7) in .tar file? I've been lurking around for a while now and I'm not able to find it. I can only find .img and I need Linux to convert it to .tar to be able to Odin. I've lost root and now I can't get it back.

ok now that ive spent more time with it i believe the root i got is incomplete. on many apps supersu dialogue doesnt pop and they dont recognize the phone as rooted. i used titanium backup to try and remove system apps and despite everything going fine the apps didnt go anywhere
UPDATE: problem fixed. I edited the build.prop in /system/ using a build.prop editor and now all my apps are asking for root
In build.prop look for ro.securestorage.support=True and set it to False
Also solves if your phone keeps forgetting the wifi passwords
It works. SM-915F. Just don't forget to off 'reactivation lock' in security tab in androud in order to install TWRP successfuly. Thanks a lot!
No you're right. Twrp is in img format but you can easily convert it to tar using a linux emulator. Took me minutes to convert it to tar. Google "how to convert img to tar. Running twrp fine
Does it work in 915V ??
So,it's strange how the method works on my 915f. For example; Titanium Backup can't remove systems apps. It looks like I have a root, but not fully operated. Any advices?
Does this still trip the knox counter?
I want to root, but I must keep my warranty as this N915F is on my company's name.

Hi guys, I have successfully rooted using temporary TWRP + modded magisk method, but now I gain root and checked via Root checker. But the problem is most of the root functions don't work as /system is read-only. Any idea?
Ya i have an idea.. Happened to me as well. I tried almoat everything but system won't be accessible anywhere.. I followed the same tutorial and installed magisk 13.4.
The only solution i could find was flash the latest factory image, and root again using supersu. I used the AIO tool by ghpranav and have got my phone rooted with xposed working without any issues.

I also fixed the issue. I flash the modified boot image and I am now gaining proper root access + Xposed. Get it working using Super SU, idk why Magisk keep failing thou. Was wanted to give Magisk a try, but it doesn't work properly on our device.
Cool:good:
Xposed isn't working with magisk? I was planning to install it

Guys, this is Magisk from Pixel. You can't expect that it is working. I wrote to MagiskDevs already, they are working on a own Version for Mi A1. Use for that time normal SuperSU (Xposed works normally )
how to??

You need flash back stock boot image first, due to some limitations you can't have TWRP and SuperSU root at the same time. If you don't have the stock boot image. I suggest download the ROM from MIUI and then flash it. You can choose "flash_all_except_storage" option, this will keep your data.
http://en.miui.com/download-333.html
After flashing. Reboot back to fastboot and then:
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
After that just run root.bat from the cf-auto root folder you downloaded and wait for it to automatically reboot your phone. You should have root now, if you wish you can download SuperSU from the store.

I actually tried before, and I tell you the results:
Option 1 TWRP installed + Rooted with Magisk
= Pretty much useless as /system is read-only. Every root app doesn't function, unless it is system-less. But system-less modules nearly all doesn't work as the Magisk version too old. And this method won't trip safetynet
Option 2 no TWRP + Rooted with SuperSU (cf-root method) -- Currently using this state
= Got proper root access, Xposed works but will trip safetynet
Option 3 TWRP installed + Rooted with SuperSU (cf-root method)
= Don't try this, will cause your phone stuck in boot loop

The best bet and possible trouble free is to first download the stock ROM from MIUI, reflash it and then root.

No, it will cause your phone stuck it boot loop if you try to flash the SuperSU zip directly from the official ChainFire site. I think probably is the AB partitioning problem or some sort (unsure). As I said you need to run CF-Auto root to get proper root access, otherwise flashing Magisk through TWRP will makes most of the root apps does not work properly unless it also uses system-less root function.

No if you want proper root with CF-auto root you must not have TWRP installed. You either choose TWRP + Magisk (non-working root) or no TWRP but with SuperSU (working root, Xposed works too).

Hey everyone,
I tried installing magisk 16.0
firstly i did ,
unlocked bootloader,
then installed twrp recovery 3.2.1
booted the phone installed magisk manager,
then again in twrp recovery
i tried flashing the magisk 16.0,the magisk gets flashed but the phone does not boot up to system,
i dont get what mistake i am doing,
i want to use the 'CAMERA2 API' on my moto g4 plus,
and nothing else
But they say you need to root for that,
so i am trying
Please help me with this...
You need to flash a custom kernel (ElementalX) before rooting your device when using stock firmware.
In addition to thorin0815's message, you cannot root on the stock Motorola kernel - attempting to root on the hudsoncm kernel causes bootloops. You may be able to reboot to TWRP, restore your TWRP backup (you did make a backup, right?) then flash ElementalX, then magisk. If you're still bootlooping, you may have to re-flash the stock ROM then try again.

I'm not sure if king root or the one click root would work, if they don't flash the custom kernel first you'd be back with a non booting device. Best to flash root yourself, that way you'll also learn the process too

hello I have tried several applications to try to get root on my redmi 3s device without getting good results. I would like to get root without adb or fastboot, just with some application. I already tried with kingroot, framaroot, a Chinese native etc .... the version that I have installed today is MIUI 10.2 stable version running marshmallow 6.0.0. thanks for helpme:good:
When I wanted to root, I also used all of these apps but they could not root my REdmi 3s. If you have a PC best way is to unlock the bootloader and then install TWRP and then flash magisk or SuperSU zip file.

Yes friend, that is indeed the best way, what I wanted is to find an application that would do it by itself, I think that with the MIUI stable you can not without PC. I already have the bootloader unlocked for years, but I reinstalled the stable MIUI and I left it like that, in the past I tried many ROMs. Thank you very much for trying to help, it does so in console and with the command adb fastboot flash recovery.
AFAIK there might be no app that could root MIUI phones or perhaps newer android versions because I tried using these apps on my Lenovo K8 Note also which is stock Android 8.1 and they couldn't root that either.
