Nope, root doesn`t wipe data bro. Its unlocking the Bootloader that wipes the device, this is necessary to root the device.

Use HELIUM app to backup your personal data before unlocking the BL. (doesn't need root access)

There was way on 4.2.2 JB without unlocking boot loader motochoppers method but it won't work on Kitkat ,currently there is no method to do without unlocking boot loader, why not u unlock it after getting out of the box.

No. We'll need to update it to take advantage of the new app and framework folders.

One Click Root is not working on this RUU. I keep getting this error:

Does this have the visual voice mail pre installed? I know you can manually install but don't want to.

Hi,
The only way to get your phone's bootloader unlocked if the unlock status says no, is paying for it.
Now, you can't enter fastboot? That's because your bootloader isn't unlocked!
Hope I helped and a ha a nice day!

I believe there are a couple or ROM s out there for your J, that don't need an unlocked bootloader. Just search through the forum!
Hope I helped and have a nice day

By unlocking the bootloader . Plus, you only need fastboot for flashing a kernel with recovery.

US update file for us rooted users

Did anyone save the update file for those of us who are rooted? Root / TWRP tripped it so I cannot download whatever 115MB update is out there.
I was rooted, no twrp. Update via kies was successful, but unrooted device.
If you can tell me where to look for update file I'll see what I can do.
Did the update via kies keep all data intact like an OTA? I can always put a stock recovery back on it and use kies, never thought about it.

Yes all was the same after the update except for losing root. I forgot to try survival mode in Super su before the update.

It seems that I could re-root with the CF Auto root file I used last time. Root Checker basic claims I'm un-rooted but I can use titanium backup and root explorer (to rename a system file) without issue.
Can someone rooted, but not updated try root checker basic from joeykim and see if it is simply a kk issue? Just curious.

I had survival mode enabled, it didn't work. Lost root and tried to re-root and it failed. I had to flash stock image to get the tablet to boot up again.

I'm not familiar with that function but I'll play with it and see what happens.
In addition to loosing root I also lost write access to the external SD card. I had to re-run the SD Fix app to restore that ability as well.
You will lose root when you update, However flash the root in odin again AND reinstall SuperSU and you will have root again. I'm updated and I have root with no problems at all.
Developers don't need no stinkin' signature!

Other than these two things, I haven't noticed anything else as of yet.

[Q] No way to root XT1028?

Hello, I want to unlock bootloader XT1028.
I searched and found unlocking bootloader way with SunShine. but It needs to be rooted.
But current version of my device is 4.4.4, but pie root is not working on 4.4.4.
Is there any way to root this device?
thanks.
Hi. Try to unlock bootloader here and install CWM here, after, enter in recovery mode and flash SuperSu here.
You need to rollback to 4.4.2 first.

Is the twrp out yet?
My Phone got an update a few days ago and it gave me the ability to unlock bootloader. I did not actually finish the process to unlock because I want to wait for others to try it out first. The update was supposed to enhance the face unlock and did not mention Anything about bootloader unlock being activated. Any brave souls out there who has tried it yet?
