[Q] Safest way to root

Hi, I wondered to know which is the safest way to root our moto g. I don't want to wipe data or delete system partition or even install custom recoveries. Is possibile to just get root access without modify too much our device?
My device: XT1032
Currently with: 5.0.2 stock
Thanks

Is your bootloader unlocked? If not you have to, and when you do, your data will be wiped.
If you are unlocked, download cfauto root for your device and it's pretty much one click to root.

Damn, I didn't want to backup and restore all my data.
Just another question: bootloader unlocked means warranty void, doesn't it? Can I lock the bootloader again in order to have the warranty valid again?

You can relock it, but as you need to request the unlock code from motorola it's pointless relocking it.
In fact motorola say just requesting the code voids the warranty even if you don't use it!

Thank you for the useful information

guide?

Download cfauto root for your device to your computer from here
1: Boot the phone into bootloader
2: Connect device to the computer with a USB cable
3: Unzip the CF-Auto-Root-xxx-xxx-xxx.zip file on the computer
4: Run the root-windows.bat file
That's it:good:

Flash custom recovery > flash Superuser.zip > profit.
You do not use root exploits when you have a unlocked bootloader.

Unable To Root.Tried To Root With SuperSU 3 Times.

Hello All My Friends.
I want to Run XMOD but as you all know it does not works on UNROOTED devices.So i tried to root my device. I tried rooting my device with several methods BUT FAILED TO ROOT. Please check my steps below. Are They Correct ?
MY VERY FIRST METHOD
* I tried rooting with several apps like Framaroot, kingoroot, but I failed.
SECONDLY
* Then i found a thread on XDA for rooting by flashing SuperSU. Alright.
What i did was first i unlocked my Bootloader. (MY SCREEN IS SHOWING : Device Is Unlocked : Status Code 3)
Then i installed TWRP.
After that i Flashed 'UPDATE SuperSU v 2.46.zip'
After successful flashing MY PHONE STUCKED ON 'UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER WARNING LOGO'.
* i waited for more than 30 minutes but i failed.
THIRD METHOD
I also tried with this method.
Downloaded 'r2-motog-superboot' and connected my phone.
Typed this command superboot-windows.bat file.
PHONE RESTARTED BUT IT DID NOT ROOTED MY DEVICE. I checked with Root Checker App It Is Showing UNROOTED.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME TO ROOT.
MY PHONE's O/S Is Android Marshmallow 6.0
I FLASHED MY PHONE WITH STOCK ROM I NOW MY DEVICE IS WORKING. BUT I WANT TO ROOT IT.

I'm not sure what version I had to unlock boot loader. I do remember rooting was the hardest problem to get started. Kingroot was the only way I could root but its a pain in the ass and I didn't like it but I was only temp till I unlocked and flashed CM. I couldn't find one that worked but kingroot.

Hi, you can root your device easily but you'll have to unlock bootloader first... maybe you have to ask motorola to do that.. and install MotoRoot or PwnMyMoto and hit setup and you are good to go :fingers-crossed:

Are you able to access recovery? if you have flashed the firmware and still stuck at boot animation or motorola logo then try wiping cache and perform a factory reset
Hit the thanks button if it worked

My device is not eligible for unlocking bootloader

Try to manually flash via fastboot

I think you had a higher version of the firmware, you can download the latest compilation (su6-7.7) but I think it couldn't be rooted because I tried with the method you posted and I couldn't root the phone so I just reflashed it manually via fastboot with the latest firmware available

There are no less than 3 threads dedicated to rooting this device on Marshmallow that are tested and working... did all of them not work for you?

Yeah bro there is such kind of problem on rooting stock marshmallow ROM but I used kingroot v 4.8.2 for rooting if your bootloader is unlocked.

Never use a one-click root method on a Moto unlocked device... Seen way to many bricked devices, always root manually.
It is easy to find, there is a thread in my signature.

If you have current SuperSU and TWRP, and use the echo command to create /data/.supersu it will work, if it isn't please go to thread in my signature and provide details including:
1) Device model and Android version
2) TWRP version
3) SuperSU version
4) Output of 'cat /data/.supersu' from TWRP terminal
And a copy of recovery.log if possible, without more specific information there is nothing that I can do to assist you.

Sony Xperia Z3 Root android 6.0.1

Hello. I've been rooting and flashing roms on phones since 2014.. mainly the devices that are easy to root such as galaxy devices and nexus devices but I am confused with my xperia z3 which i just bought to play around with.
It's on stock android marshmallow 6.0.1 and I want to root it and flash lineage OS and xposed framework..
I dont know if I have to unlock the bootloader etc and what method to root.. I have looked all over the internet but most of the tutorials are a couple of years old and outdated which makes it confusing for me because I dont know what to install and what not to install.
If anyone could refer me to something helpful or tell me what to do that would be very much appriciated. Thanks.

first u need to dial *#*#7378423#*#*
go to service test and check is ther bootloader unlock status : no or yes
IF NO : u cannot install android 7 (N)
IF YES : U CAN UNLOCK THE BOOTLOADER EASILY WITH spflashtools
but if u are on bootloader unlock L : no
u can still root, install twrp, and xposed to your device,
easily find 'xperia z3 root noob' on google
open the link from XDA
follow the instruction
what i did is:
downgrade it to 4.4.4
then root reflash .291 (MM firmware) prerooted from xda too
that'all

How to do that sir ??
Here also a MM VERSION stock
Want to root a Z3 D6653
Can you help me how ?
Tnx

I have two questions too:
1) can I install an Android 6.0 rom without unlock the bootloader? I don't want to lose my DRM
2) If I want to change the recoery, do I need to unlock the bootloader? Can I install a different rom with the stock bootloader?

There is no other recovery than TWRP (not true on Android 4 and 5 since CWM also exists, but TWRP is still the best!)

Different ROM as in "stock ROM pre-rooted that has some apps replaced" ? Yes
But _not_ "ROM with different kernel compiled by some user", for that you need an UNlocked bootloader... see posts above
