[Q] noob question for the one click root method - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys I feel really dumb asking for help on a one click root method but hey everyone was once a noob at one point or another. I just tried out the one click and it unlocked my phone but when it said to mount the sd card it would just stay at the google unlocked screen. Should i restart the one click root method or should I just go flash Clock work and then zip super use. Any help would be great.

[Q] Root Failure (All Methods Attempted) FIXED :D

Heres the issue. I am no noob at this whatsoever and have tried EVERYTHING. I have used every program I could find to attempt root and none can seem to gain root access. The install SuperUser or SuperSU and every time root fails even if said app is installed. Please help Im doing a talk on August 20th that I NEED this device for. All help appreciated. Thanks!
Im slightly confused as your sig says rooted stock
But anyway I recently got myself a Razr HD and I used http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2241788 to root and unlock bootloader
My device was 4.1.2 and I did not want to downgrade but this one worked :victory:
More info needed. Is your bootloader unlocked? If not, which firmware are you on?

Thank you, I think I may have worked out my issue! I was using 1.2 of that program. I think thats why. Let me give this a go
Tried again with this guy and still got failure. I always get this:
[*]This May Take A Few Minutes
[-]Failure
Ok well what do you know. 3rd times the charm eh? I tried a third time this time after reflashing stock firmware, antennas, etc... Thanks!
Well done and welcome to the club

I've also been searching for weeks with no luck. But I think there is still hope. We just need to unlock our bootloader. How? Well that's what we need to find out.

Dude. I think we really should find it out because there is so much potential in this phone when it is rooted. Additionally, I think I have found a way in unlocking the bootloader of our device. This may help.

I tried that method a couple of times, but it didn't work. The only solution I could think of is unlocking the boot loader first. After we've unlock it, any method of rooting will work.

How do I root my Asus zenfone 5?

I read somewhere that there is a routing tool for it , can anyone tell me where I can download it from? Or does anyone know if there is a one click method that will work for it ( I don't have a computer).
Someone please point me in the right direction. Thanks

Here are a couple of links to root guides:
Search on google for Asus Zenfone 5 Root (if you havent already)
Try: asuszenfoneblog. com link
Otherwise, keep on searching if it doesn't work, the instructions in the link are quite confusing but if read properly, will potentially root your device
Hopefully they'll work for you!
Enjoy @dboypipes
I found a 1 click method but when I used root checker it said I didn't have root m I tried it twice

Ok, some OneClick methods dont do what they say, but i recommend trying the one on the asuszenfoneblog .com website, its a bit complicated but its the best option in my opinion!
Message me on XDA if you need any more help, im finished for the night now (UK Time) so, if you need any help, it wont be until the morning @ryan012
Happy to help I hope we can find a rooting solution for this device!
So I tried that zenfone root APK. On that aeus blog but when I checked it with root checker it had no root acsess. The directions seemed simple enough I don't think I did anything wrong but who knows

[Q] Microphone Problem {} Need Help

Hey, I have got a problem with my OnePlus One for quiet some time..
It started about 2 months ago - Whenever I'm on a call, the other side can barely hear me unless I'm on speaker.
I did some reading and there are suggestions that this is because of some mis-written code or something, that makes the input of the microphone low, so that only a small precent of the sound is being transferred to the one I'm talking to.
this may or may not be the problem, but I wanted to ask you fellows if anyone has any suggestion on what's causing this and how to try & solve it.
I'm Running a Stock 5.0.2 Cm12s with the latest OTA update, and this problem started when I had Stock 4.4.4 CM11s.
Device isn't rooted & never was.
Locked Bootloader.
Please help if you can

So in order to install a custom recovery ( say TWRP ) I do not need root acess? do I only need to follow step no.2 at the guide you gave me?

Yes, But it is also recommended to root the phone. Root is a great thing to have

Mini on 4.4.4 and SU4.21 can I root or unlock? edit: Yes and was so simple a caveman

This quote is from the crash root thread, my mini is on SU4.21 screen shot of status below, if I can unlock or get root and bypass the hotspot block unlimited data please provide a link to the thread that explains how to to it, thanks!
_ck_ said:
By the way if it is not clear to newbies, if you are fortunate enough to get a phone with SU4.21 instead of SU6-x, do NOT, I repeat do NOT flash VZW-4.4.4-SU6-7-release-keys.xml
Because then you are taking a valuable phone that can unlock the bootloader and forcing it to upgrade and it can never be downgraded again to SU4 from SU6
ie. the SU6 cannot unlock bootloader at this time, the SU4 can via sunshine
you CAN root the SU4 but it is using a different file than in this thread

This is a screen of my new droid mini, when I run sunshine it passes but tries to temp root and just reboots, never gets past rebooting. Can you link to the info on unlocking SU4.21 you mention please? Thank you

In case someone else needs help... nobody answered here but I posted the question in the crash root thread and someone was nice enough to help, Thank you!

root with kingroot

doitinthedirt said:
Kingroot did the trick, and I used an app that I have on my moto x to bypass the hotspot block, also froze the ota app so it wont update. All is fine without unlocking it, but when it reboots the root is gone and I need to rerun kingroot, is this the way kingroot works, or should it maintain root through a reboot? Im not sure I like the idea of leaving kingroot on the phone, I will probably unlock it with sunshine and do a factory reset and try rooting it a permanent way, thats something I've never done before, I mean install a custom rom and root that way. Do I need to install a custom rom in order to root permanently? Id rather not do that, but if its the only way than I will attempt it.
Thanks

No if you use sunshine then u can perment root without installing a custom ROM I know on my droid turbo after I installed twrp and ran it the first time it will ask you first thing if you want to root swip yes and it's done permently I assume it's the same way with the mini
