Root tools issue

Any one know why Root tools would give an error on it's functions.. "Error running command.Probably could not gain root."
I have root. Root checker confirmed. As well all other root functions work.
Any one with some insight to this?

Sigh** BUMP!

Did you just flash a new ROM, sometimes I have to reboot once to gain the root back

Maybe you need to install or update busybox?

Try this tool: http://revolutionary.io/, I have used it.

no need for s-off
if you just want to gain root access to install superuser.apk or remove files then there is no real need to s-off i think...
just follow this tutorial:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1194488
use the fr3vo method to get an adb as root and install what you want. You don't need the additional step with revolutionary for that!

Sorry wrong post, please delete

Does Revolutionary give me root?
No. You will need to flash this zipfile from recovery.

You'll might have the same problem as a friend of mine.
You must use the right drivers for the communication between the phone and your PC (i think you use windows).
You get them from the revolutionary page i guess.
Greetings
Edit:
Ohh?!
You are s-off for now?
Then install ClockworkMod and then your fav customrom .
U dont need the super oneclick tool.

I'm confused... you are s-on with root access?

His signature is wrong.
Or you maybe ment that he said he is s-on but he corrects and said then he is s-off.
So i think we can close this topic.

Hi,
There are several ways to do this now.
Look HERE
HERE
Or use THIS TOOLKIT
Or THIS ONE

Thank you guy, even if i've already seen these threads.
The fact is my bootloader is locked but i've got the S-OFF.
Unfortunately, i still cannot install a recovery in order to root my Sensation XE.
I should have been more clearly: i just want to root my phone in order to make a backup with titanium backup (i don't want to lose my apps data).
Then, i would install an older RUU to backup my phone and S-OFF with revolutionarry.
So, there is an other way to root my phone (permanent root ain't necessary).
I dont wan't to lose my warrantly with HTC dev unlock either.

Download this: http://tinyurl.com/ICSHboot
Download my tool. It's in my signature. Follow all the instructions from the thread, but don't run any file.
Go to the tools folder inside the main folder of my tool, & paste the jb_hboot.zip file that you downloaded.
From inside the tools folder, run the file boot.bat
Once done, reboot to bootloader.
You should now have *JuopunutBear* instead of *locked*
If you only want root, then just follow all instructions from my tool thread and run the menu.bat as stated in the instructions. Make the appropriate choices & you'll have permanent root.

check my one click ROOTING TOOL present in the guide in my signature ..it just requires SOFF..no recovery needed too..and bootloader status doesn't matter
just connect your phone ..and then double click ..the required file(root.bat)
that's all you are rooted
EDIT:you can even use kgs tool for the same process too

It's getting wierd...
@ganeshp Hi man! I checked your thread yersterday and i didn't see that there was a rooting tool!
Unfortunately, the process worked perfectly ("EVERYTHING DONE..ROOT SUCCESS...ONE FINAL REBOOT NOW") but titanium backup or other apps which required root tell me that I'm not rooted..
I noticed that each time super user refuse root/super user access to these apps, i don't know. And yes i tried to change superuser automatic answer to "allowed" or "ask me".
@kgs1992 Thanks you. I tried it but when i launch boot.bat it tells me "waiting for device" (i tried to plug my phone in HTC sync mode too).
So then i tried to root with your tool and even if it tells me that the process succeed, titanium backup tell me that i'm not rooted.. Same problem as i said to ganeshp.
I'm a little but confuse now

Well if SU installed, then you are rooted.
You need to reboot to bootloader before running boot.bat

Yes, SU is installed but it does'nt grant root access to my applications!
I tried to run boot.bat, the process failed.
I dont know what is the problem now..

Did you download jb_hboot.zip and put it in the tools folder before running boot.bat? I linked you to it before.

Yes i did, i followed exactly what you told me to do.
By the way your URL is wrong, so i downloaded jb_hboot.zip from here http://unlimited.io/hboot-downloads/ (i took the pyramid-ICS one).

Yes, it's ICSboot, not Hboot, sorry.
Anyway, it should have worked. are you sure it didn't?
try opening this zip (attached) & putting this boot.bat in the same folder and running it.

It worked! Thank you so much!
I can see that "Juopunut Bear" above the S-OFF
I'm gonna try to root and install recovery now. If i have an other problem i'll make a double-post in order to up the topic. Otherwise i will just edit this one.
Thank you again for your help, your damn great guys

Root not working

I've just tried to root the device using the debugfsroot.bat method and it is not working.
I have followed the instructions, reread them to make sure I've done it correctly but no joy.
Anyone else had this problem?

That doesn't work anymore on JB.
If you want to keep your locked bootloader, then downgrade to ICS again and root it. Then use OTA rootkeeper to keep root after upgrading to JB.
Search the forum how to downgrade.

the RootDebugfs.bat file has a number of error condition handlers, what error are you getting when attempting to root?

It is not apparent that there are any error messages. I've attached two screenshots, including the final one which claims I have root.

After you finished, you have to launch (open up) the superuser app, then download "root checker" from the market and use it to verify that you have root.

Well it seems as I've managed to solve the problem. I went into Superuser after doing the root, then under info, checked and updated and now root checker says I have root!
Just upgraded to Jellybean following instructions in one of the threads and have root as well. Now to install CleanROM!

Also, if that doesn't work, give this a try: http://reviewroots.com/root-Oppo-F1-with-or-without-pc
Plus, could you give me your thoughts on the battery life? I am on the edge of buying this phone or the moto 3rd gen and the battery life is the only thing holding me back.

I had tried "Kingroot" and "Framaroot" two days ago. Both of them don't work for F1.
Anyway，thanks for your sharing.:highfive:

There is no working root for Oppo F1 at the moment. Safe rooting methods are not available. The bootloader is locked and fastboot has been disabled.
I'd be very careful about trying to use one click app solutions for attempting to root the device, if you can get them to work. They are responsible for suspicious behavior, such as downloading stuff and installing their own root manager. Beware.

No hope
I tired everything, kingroot, Framaroot, oppo tool, Kingoroot no hope ?
Someone please find a way to root this phone

You still haven't figured out how to root this?

nice :good:
perhaps you can give us more clues :
1. does we need unlock bootloader / not ?
2. it need flashing from recovery (or even flash custom recovery) or only just an apk ?
this is interesting :highfive:

Has anyone tried TowelRoot?

Please help us root this device!
Thank you guys so much!

would using adb and remounting everything manually work? or downloading a firmware update and modding that

It will be much like my Find 7. Need to unlock bootloader to install TWRP recovery so you can flash SuperSU.
The trick is having an unlocked bootloader in the first place. The Find 7 wasn't a problem. Oppo didn't try to lock the user out.
I have an F1 here for my wife. Will root it once a developer has the exploits developed, tested and released to public. Just have to be patient and don't rush in doing risky experiments.
Try changing the launcher so it has a better UI for the daily stuff. ColorOS launcher is a PITA.

lol. uh no.
1: you can't remount system as /rw on a user build (only engineering/userdebug).
2: I think you mean a OTA update for system. Both the firmware and system are signed. You can't just do that.
You can use CVE-2015-1805. I got root via a kernel vuln, then exploited the bootloader to unlock it
