I would be happy to help. First lets try this, go to Play Store and install SRT Appscanner please, then open the app and tell me if it says either of the bugs say vulnerable. Also, what version of Android does your device have on it currently?

Im using android 4.1.2 version

Ok, that is good actually. Now go to this link and download Impactor please, unzip the file onto your PC then double click the Impactor application, then on box that pops up leave it on # drop Supersu su to /system/xbin/su and hit start. IF it says successful the go to Play Store and download Supersu, when it opens it will ask to update binary, choose continue then normal and you should have root! Use root checker to verify afterwards if you like. Good luck!
http://www.cydiaimpactor.com/
You might need to install drivers for your device so the root program can communicate with your device, Impactor has a button to help install drivers but if it fails let me know and I can give you some generic android drivers if nothing else
Hope this helps!

I've managed to install all the drivers, but in time will always fail to install the adb drivers
it say
cannot start this hardware
there was a problem installing this hardware
android composite adb interface (Qualcomm usb ID)
windows cannot load the device driver for this hardware
the driver may be corrupted or missing (code 39)

Try installing this on your PC, it will help find drivers for your device. If that don't work we will use the generic drivers:
http://www.snappea.com/
Also - Do you have USB debugging enabled? Go to Settings > Developer Options > and make sure USB debugging is checked otherwise the PC cant use ADB drivers even if correct ones are installed.

I finally managed to install the driver
I've tried to use cydia impactor but it's always like this
error

Ok, do you have SuperSU or Superuser on your device? First we will have to sort that out. Both apps do the same thing, but it is not good to have more than one installed at same time or you get conflicts on whether you are rooted because the apps cant decide who controls root access between them all. How many superuser apps do you have counting the chinese one Vroot installed/ Usually when I use Vroot, it installs the chinese superuser app then I instal SuperSU from play store, when you go to update binary in SuperSU the first time you open the app, make sure you hit the right button in the chinese pop up that should pop up. If you have alot of trouble figuring out this part, feel free to install Teamviewer on your PC and I can connect to you and help you get this sorted, I have tools that will let me see your phone on your PC's screen so it wont take long to fix I dont think.

No i dont have supersu apl in my phone.
What you need about my mobile?
I will send you everything you need.
I check in google and i think my mobile same with innos i6c.
But all site about this product on chinesse language and i cant understand at all

I need install teamviewer only on pc? Or mobile to?

Ok, first go install SuperSU from Play Store. Once installed open the app and it should pop up a message saying it needs to update binary. Choose continue then choose normal. You should then get a pop up box that from the chinese root app, make sure you tap the right hand button to allow the english SuperSU to install binary. Let me know if it fails after this, if it completes with no errors reboot phone once. Upon rebooting look to see if the other chinese root app is still there. If it is still there then I will need you to go back into SuperSU app and then choose setttings, within settings please choose "Install SuperSU into /system" This may reboot phone but that is ok, if it does not reboot then reboot it yourself. (If it reboots phone itself, it had to do that to clean up files first and you will need to go back into SuperSU and install SuperSU to /system again and reboot once more) Upon reboot chinese root app should now be gone and you should have root.
I do not need any info about your mobile, I got everything I need to help already. I was suggesting Teamviewer meaning if you cant get root yourself, I was offering to connect to your PC and do it for you. If you would feel more comfortable just doing it yourself that is fine but I was just making the offer in case you were to the point you just wanted it done and over!
Let me know how it goes.

I just need flash my firmware and now my phone is rooted

[Q] Flashing recovery on my LG P500!

Hello everyone,
I've already posted 2 threads here! People have been helping me understand alot of this rooting/recovering and stuff.
But i need your help again. I have a LG P500 with official 2.3.3 update and I want to flash the TWRP on my phone (phone was rooted. I have the superuser app) Im following this tutorial http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1146566 but im stuck at the "su" command!(by stuck i dont mean bricked! I just can go further than that step!)
When i use that command it takes a while and then it says "Permission denied".
Isnt it supposed to ask me for permission? It didnt even show anything to choose if i want to give the permission or not!
If any of you have another way to flash that custom recovery or could help me with this one i would really appreciate your help! (im kinda noob but i heard that ROM manager has a "good" reputation when it comes to bricking phones so ill probably pass all the tutorials that i need to use it!)
PS: i downloaded the TWRP from this site TakamineSubasa gave me (http://lg-p500.zrusit.eu/forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=7). And also im using Terminal Emulator from the market to write the commands.
Would really appreciate all the help anyone could give me!
Thank you in advance
edit: sorry didnt see that you were using terminal emulator, please go to Superuser app and be sure "Terminal" is listed in the allow list
I dont have any apps listed on the superuser app! And i dont know how to add them!
BAAAM! From xda app! (LG P500! LEGEN.....DARY!)
Mmm thats weird, when you enter "su" command it should prompt permission :S
Try reinstalling Terminal emulator
If that doesnt work, maybe root is screwed.... After you try re-rooting your phone, install Android SDK then do the recovery install within windows command
Oh, and please post which version of stock rom is in your phone... go to settings --> about phone and post that details, and check if its v10a ,b c, etc...
Some letters doesnt like to be rooted the easy way...
PS: If you dont want to install Android SDK also try the second method in the guide i gave you
just download rom manager
then download CWM recovery
after that, reboot into recovery
and flash any recovery zip file that u wan
The first time you use a function that needs root permission, you should automatically get a screen like this: http://fs03.androidpit.info/ass/x66/772466-1281914300690.jpg
After you click allow, you'll be able to use the su function. I suggest you try using other program that asks for root (for example NoFrills CPU Control, or enable root explorer setting in ES File Explorer). If the screen doesn't show up you may want to repeat the rooting process. By the way, did you root the phone before or after official upgrade?
Alternatively, you can try the LGMDP process for unrooted phones: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15217609&postcount=3
I've heard a lot that using ROM Manager isn't recommended, due to the many reported issues related to it like fastboot, but since I've never tried that I can't vouch for sure.
What I did on my phone was use this "simplified method" to install custom recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13422938&postcount=91
You'll get an AmonRa v1.2 by following this guide, but after that you can easily flash any recovery you want including TWRP using ciaox's guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1065197

Hello XeactorZ
I appreciate your help but im not an expert in this (only rooted my phone once and apparantely i did it wrong!) and what i heard is that ROM manager is well known for bricking phones and i dont want to take that risk since i dont really want to be without my phone.
Btw my software version is V20c!
I'll try to install ES File Explorer and enable the root explorer setting to see if i accidently pressed the deny option and now its not allowing me to do anything!
if its the case then ill have to unroot and re-root again right? (used this tutorial: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1200167).
Another thing! when i use the command "su" on the terminal emulator i sometimes get a force close error from the superuser app.

Just go to applications menu and clear data for ES file explorer.
I just tried to enable the root explorer option but, again, superuser app forced closed..
terratrix i only installed ES explorer now, i think that didnt affect anything on the superuser permissions. I'll probably unroot and re-root the phone again today. Cant do it at work but ill try to do it at home.
If you have any ideas i could try, please leave a post! would really appreciate it.
Thank you everyone.
PS: right after i posted this i tried to open the superuser app and now it simply doesnt open. Always force closes!

Well using ROM manager will be my last option ill first try too re-root my phone(think that will work) and if that doesnt solve the problem i use the other method TakamineSubasa adviced!
But will only use ROM manager if those 2 methods fail! So wish me good luck
Any ideas or solutions to this problem please post them! Even if i solve my problem other solutions may help anyone else!

yeah, for those unlucky guys. be warned.
i will still use it though. served me quite well. never failed even once. <knock on wood>
Well i told you guys i would post to tell you how it went!
I managed to "fix" that denied permission problem. What i did was simply update superuser app! And BOOOM! problem fixed.
All went well with the Recovery flashing, I also flashed CM7(had a few scares but managed to fix them [thanks to that im now half asleep at work ]) but after i flashed CM7 and booting into it, i found a problem. My phone doesnt have GSM. I found it wierd that when i booted into it the first time it didnt ask me for my PIN but i didnt even noticed as i was really sleepy. This morning i noticed that i had an "x" next to that GSM scale or w/e you want to call it. And i also dont have my SIM contacts listed.
Im posting this here just to update you guys about how it went but ill do a thread so i try to fix my problem and hopefully it will help someone else!
Thank you guys for all the help you gave!

[Q] DNA Keeps unrooting?

So I used the rooting guide at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1996389 and found a different superuser/busybox package to use. (don't remember the link right now).
However, whenever I open SuperSU to try to update it, it says installation failed or just reboots. And if I try to use root things for AdFree, it can't find the partition or just restarts.
Is anyone else having this problem or is there a different SU package I should use? My bootloader IS unlocked.

Ive been using ViperDNA which comes with what seems like a custom SuperUser type of all in it.
But when I origionally rooted my phone, i seem to remember having an issue with SuperSU, and the first time i rooted i said screw it and just installed Superuser without any problems. The second time i rooted, i Installed SuperSU, then had to download Superuser form the Android Market, to update the binary, which updated it for SuperSU, and that solved my problem.
When you try to open an app that needs to use root access, do you get the notification asking for permission?
perhaps the "other" superSU/busybox package that you used didn't properly do what it needed to do?
I see the link on that tutorial is broken, fortunately i have the file that i originally downloaded form that very same tutorial saved to my hard drive, and now uploaded to DropBox if you would like to download it and try flashing this zip while in recovery to see if it gives you a proper root.
I would recommend downloading the above file, and flashing that to see if it helps. I'll try to remember to check back here to see if you posted anything in reply, but let me know if it doesn't work. Ill try to help as much as I can

I installed your package, and get the same errors before in SuperSU. It wants to upgrade but then force restarts whilst trying.
I then tried the Superuser app by Chainsdd, and I make a little progress?
First, when I try to upgrade, it asks for root from SuperSU and Superuser. Since SuperSU came with the busybox package, I can't uninstall it.
When I first go to the updater, it shows me this: (See attachment 1, I can't do links :S)
After I upgrade it, I am left with this screen: (see attachment 2)
It looks like it reverts back to su v .98 from 1.02?
Either way, as soon as I hit lets do it again, the phone restarts. Did I screw up the unlock/root somehow? In the top left of my fastboot screen it shows ***TAMPERED*** and ***UNLOCKED***
I am using CWM 6.0.2.1

It's difficult for me to troubleshoot when i haven't had to fix this problem since december haha.
The tampered, and unlocked is standard that is what it shows for everyone who unlocked the boot-loader.
So let me get this straight,
Do me a favor, un-install Superuser, download RootChecker from the market by JoeyKrim, And run it, what does it say?
->When you run it, did it ask for permission from SuperSU?
With just the SuperSU installed, if you run a program that requires root permission (For example, RootChecker), Nothing shows up asking if you want to Allow/Deny?
->When you open SuperSU to update the binary, it fails to update and restarts the APP?
With the SuperSU/BusyBox package flashed, when you install Superuser from the android market and try to update the binary, it *appears* to revert back to an older version of the binary?
-> After updating the binary through Superuser (despite the appparent reversion), if you un-install Superuser, and try to run RootChecker, does it work?
Sorry, i know it is a lot and i'm not much help, i'm troubleshooting blindly and from a distance haha.

you need to install a kernel with /system writing enabled. Such as lk's or cubed
htc has a line wrong in their code and it makes it so that /system cant be edited while booted into android, only while in recovery. Installing a kernel that fixed this bug will let you use supersu from the play store and other apps such as adfree which need to edit system files to function

Even with a writeable kernel SuperSu gives a hiccup at first. Download SuperUser, update the binary of SuperSu, then uninstall SuperUser. SuperSu will be fine after that.

Quite a few of us running a version of Supercharged Hatka had problems when they switched to SuperSu,but now they switched back to SuperUser and the problem hasn't reared its head.

Root 245 and 254 firmware without flashing kernel

This method allows for ROOT versions 245/254 without having to flash older kernel.
Steps:
1. install the English version of VROOT (see attachment)
2. running VROOT and let you update your latest version (1.7)
3. Once updated, open VROOT and connect the phone with USB DEBUGGING ON mode
4. Press a Button on ROOT and wait for it to finish.
5. Once completed we will say that it is ROOT, but the root that has this in chinesse, to change this file, unzip "Root VROOT.zip" and run the file runme_win.bat (some time need do 2 times for work).
What this does is remove the file ric (random reboots), changes the their to English and installs the SuperSU and busybox (same as V18 does DooMLoRD ROOT).
once completed, the phone will reboot and should be fine.
Enjoy.

offline charger is work or not ?
for me, yes... no prob. at all
Well, I'll be ... it worked!
At least, that's what Simple Root Checker told me.
I had to directly download the 1.7.0 version of VROOT from Mod edit: links removed , since the provided version in the OP simply won't just update.
Edit: Forgot to say, offline charging works!
At least, when I plugged in the charger after shutting down the phone, it *remains* shutdown. A press on the power button shows battery level indicator, then screen turns off again.

3. Once updated, open VROOT and connect the phone with USB DEBUGGING ON mode
4. Press a Button on ROOT and wait for it to finish.
5. Once completed we will say that it is ROOT, but the root that has this in chinese, to change this file, unzip "Root VROOT.zip" and run the file runme_win.bat.
Don't do the last step "What this does is remove the file ric (random reboots), changes the their to English and installs the SuperSU (same as V18 does DooMLoRD ROOT)."
Coz it will make ur phone always reboot after booting to homescreen.
I just sharing my experience to help everyone

There's only one version that I can see in Mod edit: links removed ...
Or, to be precise, I don't understand Chinese, so I just clicked on the "big button with downward arrow and the label 立即下载 "
(According to Google Translate, "立即下载" means "Download Now")
Then, I followed the instructions of the installed VROOT Windows App. The phone did some quirky things, then rebooted. Everything was on autopilot. When the process completed, the VROOT Windows App automatically tested for Root.
The VROOT Windows App said I'm rooted. Simple Root Checker (which had been recommended via XDA Portal) said I'm rooted. There was a pop-up in Chinese as I ran Simple Root Checker; I guess it's SRC asking for root privileges, I just tapped on "Accept" or "Allow" (luckily, the buttons were in English).
Afterwards, I ran the runme_win.bat provided by OP (after ensuring that I've closed all apps connected to the phone). The SU app in the phone got replaced with SuperSU ...
... and now I'm a happy peach

I've done like those steps, then when I used Folder Mount for my Games Data and reboot, then everything's gonna be error.
So I just flash to stock firmware 2.254 then rooting using DooMLoRD methods, it works now
Maybe it's so complicated using rooting steps from DooMLoRD but I think it gives me a perfect rooting, hehehe

Your reboot problem is caused by some issue with mounting /system r/w, which can happen with any rooting method. it's not the vroot that's causing it.

Can you tell me exactly what folder pairs you mount using Folder Mount?
Because, rooting simply means "a way to give you root (UID=0) privileges". You're either rooted, or you're not. There's no such thing as partially rooted or imperfectly rooted.
The possible cause might be a buggy and/or outdated busybox binary.
I myself have installed BusyBox Pro by Stericson. It is one of the most up-to-date and complete busybox implementation for Android.
If you can post exactly what games you experienced problems with, and which folder pairs you mounted, I can test with my phone.

totally agree! I had the same experience.
I am not denying to you. But I have rooted my phone using vroot only. After upgrading you have to use fress upgraded version of vroot. And one more thing for super user app you can download SuperSU ( chainfair ) from play store. Use latest version of SuperSU app.

I tried to download updated version VROOT but Antivirus prompt it Trojan inside. Even I took risk to download to a computer (brand new computer without important things). I did root phone but not successful. I am interesting that what version VROOT you were using to root 4.4.2?
Other things, SuperSU has problem after flashed to phone. it seems to be OK and grant root right to apps such as Titanium backup. However, when you open SuperSU,it will prompt you SU binary need to be updated. It is NEVER successful the update. I download most updated version SuperSU 2.02 but same error. Finally, a Chinese web site, someone using I post root package and successful. I did root by this package, everything fine.
I am extremely sorry brother , In previous post i pasted the wrong link that is for android 4.2 version.
follow this for android 4.4.+ version::::::::
1. Download driver for your phone on pc. Use pdanet to download driver.or search in google for s930.
2. download it: Romaster_3.4.6.8285
http://soft.mgyun.com/files/products/romasterlab/1000/2014/50595328/Romaster_3.4.6.8285_Setup.exe
3. turn on USB DEBUG in your phone.
4. Install RootMaster that you have downloaded alredy.
5.Open it, Click on ROOT at bottom.Wait for status. Then click on ROOT. And wait to reboot your phone .After that ROOTMASTER will check that status of your phone.
You will get status as Rooted .
All DONE and have fun.

Did you try to open SuperSU and prompt you update SU Binary? I did similar thing of you mention but SuperSU alway prompt me update binary but never successful
Yes I installed it and working fine. Earlier I was also not able to use it but after getting kitkat its working.
Do one thing, first uninstall SuperSU. Root your phone then install SuperSU from play store only. Don't use any backup apk.

was it a bug or its downgraded?
Reboot and check again, if doesn't work then you have to re upgrade, might be there was some internet problem while downloading.

Rooting z2 on 17.1.2.a.0.314

Hi all,
Finally decided to root my z2 since I got it in April. I'm on the above firmware but when I try to root with cubeundcube rootkitXperia tool kit I get error adb is not recorgnised command, program or batch file.
Anyone know how to deal with this. Do I need to download anything else side from the tool kit!
Where do I find adb for z2?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

.314 rooting is piece of cake and noob-proof all you only need to is :
install flashtool => install drivers => connect z2 in USB debugging on and unknown Application on
Start flashtool, press the root button, select superuser and press OK
check you device now it will promt you to click on root me
reboot and done
Do you lose DRM keys with this method?

Yeah thanks, finally tried it with latest flashtool. I followed the process but it did not reboot my phone, it just said rebooting device but nothing happened. I unplugged and rebooted myself.
I've got super user installed but no root access.
When I ask for root permissions in flashtool, I get root access denied.
I downloaded root checker from play store which said I have root but no apps which require root can get it.
Any ideas, doesn't seem like I can repeat the rooting process without reflashing the stock firmware first.

Yeah super user is installed but doesn't seem to do anything!
Don't think this method works for this firmware. Trouble is, don't think it can be undone without flashing stock firmware again.
I know he was just trying to be helpful but it's really going to be a pain to root now!
