[Solved] Xperia L root restart problem - Sony Xperia L

After installing root when I open the SuperSU to update, the phone reboots and every time it turn on past about 10 seconds and restarts again. I have to repair by Sony PC Companion and install everything again and when I do root it happens all again.
I have locked bootloader and 15.0.A.2.17 stock.
Why I can't do root?

I had similar problem.After rooting the phone rebooted when loading...I unlocked the bootloader and now its working normaly...

how are you trying to root?

Normally. I tried this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2307983 and motochooper

That doesn't work on locked bootloaders. You may have to restore to stock then do the following in this thread.

Full root, no problem.

[Q] unlocked bootloader, but no root

I was able to unlock my boot loader at a friends house, but I don't have access to a computer so is their a way to complete the root without PC access

Have you installed a custom recovery and flashed either SuperSU or SuperUser? If you haven't done that, then no.

No, I haven't. Guess I'll just wait to go to my friend's house and use his computer.
Thanks polobunny!

These will be pretty much the last step when you need a computer. Once you have flashed a custom recovery using fastboot and flashed a superuser binary and app from within the custom recovery, you're rooted.

Recovery installed, no root...

So I used the Casual one-click tool to root my Verizon S3. TWRP installed correctly but I have no SuperSU. I tried installing it from the app store but it crashes whenever I try to get root access. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Odin back to stock and try the casual tool again. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2332825 but don't do the 1 click option. Root your phone, reboot and see if the installed superuser app is working (you'll be able to install the binaries if you're rooted). And then unlock your bootloader and flash recovery. The first post has the correct instructions.

Thanks a lot. Ended up doing this before seeing this post and now everything is running smoothly. Just figured I'd check back to mark this thread as solved.

[Q] Re-do Bad Root?

I've been having issues with all new root apps being auto-denied (namely goomanager) by superuser. I tried factory reset but unfortunately it kept root. SuperSU said I needed to update binary, but I have no idea how to do that, so I thought unrooting and re-rooting would be easier. Any advice?

Just follow the the instructions superuser gives to update the binary. That is what is causing your half root issues.

Alright, I rerooted with motochopper and updated using supersu, but goomanager still get "No recoveries were found for your device", even after I verified it had root access. Do I have to do the complicated method, or is there something else I can try?

You have to be unlocked to use the goo manager method.

Somehow GooManager doesn't seem to work on our tablets - don't know why but I read the same scenario more than twice: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2524661
Use the fastboot method to install TWRP or the "MinimalADB fastboot Tool"
Yes goo manager has stopped support for installing twrp. I suspect too many people bricked as it can flash the wrong one. Only method now is fast boot from PC which is the best method.

Whenever I try to update to v10j via OTA, it gives me an error. I am not rooted (yet)

Why would it be doing this? I already removed root via the SuperSU app permanently. What could be causing the error?

You might have a system app removed or missing
Or maybe you have done something with the build prop as well if thats messed with that will also throw an error out.
If you read closely it should tell you what the error is

I really hope not. How do I go about finding out if I'm missing a system app? I've already done a factory reset along with unrooting via SuperSU's app.

I don't have TWRP installed, either. I've got stock recovery and stock everything. I was going to remove root so I could update and then re-root for v10j and then install the new version of TWRP.

I fixed it. I rooted the device and flashed the v10i recovery image for TWRP that I found and I'm now going to update to v10j via the kdz, as you suggested. Thank you.

No problem glad i could assist u in your problem
Why not get TWRP again and flash @GameTheory's v10j pre-rooted stock rom, it's not like you're going to see anything special with that update it's the last one before MM:

well even if you Remove root via SuperSU that doesn't mean your SYSTEM is unmodified, the only way to get back to FULL Unmod. software is by following my steps of restoring back to stock, here is the link
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/rom-lg-g-stylo-h631-ms631-v10j-stock-t3211563
P.S. You need to have TWRP for this so Re-Root and Re-Flash TWRP and follow steps

How do you root with PK1?
KillerClaw321 said:
We are not able to root Android 7.0 on the Galaxy S7. The only thing we can do is let those know who are wanting to update that there is not root.
I do believe it is possible to downgrade back to PK1 from the latest nougat update. Please correct me if I'm wrong. But once you downgrade you should be able to root again.

I cannot root with PK1 either. Odin flashes fine, but root script will not work no matter what I do. Any advice?

Copy the directory, then run cmd in administrative mode. Then type "cd (directory)" for example cd C/Users/KillerClaw/Desktop/Root . Then type root.bat, then leave your phone plugged in and watch it restart by itself... done you should be rooted
Still having issues

I figured out the problem, it was my firewall. SU installed, but is still not working and cannot be updated. I tried but failed installing twrp. I'm out of ideas

Thank you. I do not have many options for phones with T mobile. I loved my S5 but I have bad reception on Sprint.
