[Q] Need help getting into download mode to use Odin on Samsuang Exhibit II 4G

I rooted my phone using Zerg Rush Root but took a few times to work. I keep getting SU binary outdated, so i read that this will fix that (Superuser-3.0.7-efgh-signed.zip) but need to be in Recovery mode to install zip. Here's my problem, installing recovery.tar using Odin. I can get into download mode on phone, but when it tries to install driver after plugging in usb cable; I get unable to install your MSM7x30. I have installed the TMO_ADB_Tether_Drivers which will work just plugging in usb cable not in download mode. I noticed in download mode; it shows
ODIN MODE
Product name: SGH-T679
Custom Binary Download: No
Current Kernal: Unknown 11
Any ideas? I know the superstars here can help!
Thanks!

Thanks,

Try this before going to that risky recovery route you are planning.
->After rooting via ZergRush
---- Install Busybox from Market.
------Run and install Busybox latest version.
- >After installing Busybox
----Go To Market and see if there are updates for Superuser
------Update SuperUser if update is available.
- >After updating Superuser
------Run Superuser
--------Select Menu
-----------Select Preferences
-------------Scroll Down and look for SU binary, then Tap to check for updates
---------------Update if available.
Hope that helps without having to go to recovery...because there is still no custom recovery for this phone...as far as I know...

I did try the SU Update Fixer from market but that didn't work. I'll try your method. Ok, it's erroring out at Checking md5sum....failed.
What next?
Resolved, i choosed defaults, but i should have selected /bin instead of default /xbin to install busybox. Now, it's fixed.
Now, few more questions. What's the best way to delete the BusyBox files that i installed in the /xbin and how can i get my phone to work with Odin?

You are on a custom ROM. Custom roms usually are rooted. So you shouldn't need to root.
Some custom roms have root access disabled by default and you can enable it by going into developer options.
Settings -> Developer options -> Root access. Select Apps and ADB.
If you do not see Developer options, enable it first.
Go to Settings -> About phone -> and tap on build number until you see the message that you are now a developer. (7-8 times)
You also clearly have a custom recovery if you are using a custom rom, so you can also flash SuperSu from recovery for example.

Are you sure it isn't rooted? I assume you have tried RootChecker (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.joeykrim.rootcheck&hl=en) app.
If it says you are not rooted, you could try one more thing.
Go into custom recovery and flash the latest SuperSU.zip. This will definitely work,

I think there is something wrong with the root access. The RootChecker out put is "Sorry! This device doesnt have proper root access". Will try custom recovery mode. Thanks again for the guidance/help.

FYI... Almost every method in you list will soft brick the Moto G 2015. Do it manually, unlock bootloader, flash TWRP, flash SuperSU, reboot and your done. If you look in the general section, there is a simple tutorial.

TWRP + SuperSU, hands down. You'll definitely want to use the beta packages that support systemless root. Otherwise you'll probably trip a bootloop

There is a thread dedicated to this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/2015-moto-g/general/root-how-to-root-moto-g-2015-android-t3320113
It is simple... Download the latest TWRP and SuperSU
1) Unlock
2) Boot/flash TWRP with Fastboot
3) Go to the TWRP terminal and enter: echo SYSTEMLESS=true>>/data/.supersu
4) Flash SuperSU
5) Reboot
It is literally that simple.

TWRP terminal is in the Advanced Menu, when TWRP started press the button marked "Advanced" then press button marked "Terminal". Enter the command EXACTLY as shown, including the >>, which means "append to" in the terminal, so what is does is append "SYSTEMLESS=true" to the file /data/.supersu and if it doesn't exist go ahead and create it with that content. When SuperSU is installed, it will check that file and act accordingly, allowing for a forced systemless install.

Android P gestures are hidden in beta 3

I've just finished the setup wizzard, but for a second the navbar changed to the android p gestures one. It would be awesome if people could try to find it with adb so we could enable it, thanks.
Okay someone found a way to enable this, but you can only use the oneplus launcher or it will crash if you swipe up.
To enable it use this command in adb: adb shell settings put secure swipe_up_to_switch_apps_enabled 1
And to disable this do this command: adb shell settings put secure swipe_up_to_switch_apps_enabled 0
i will try to create a magisk module to enable it for people without easy acces to a pc,

Me too ! I think the same as you

yeah I would like to have the option. Does magisk support android p right now?

Magisk 16.6 Works Fine

Same exactly. There must be some sort of way to enable the Android P gesture nav bar.
Other thing is when you freeze the OnePlus Launcher and install Pixel Launcher as system app new recents app is gone.

Boot to bootloader and fastboot twrp.img, don't reboot flash the twrp.zip and again don't reboot and flash magisk wipe cache and reboot.

Magisk 16.6 DOES NOT work fine...
You will get some error reading your email on gmail or inbox + other strange ****, but it seems to be better with 16.7

Waiting for your magisik module for this

You can use the command line in the "terminal emulator" app to get the gesture as well.

Although I am using Oneplus launcher. Using this google gesture will still let OP launcher FC sometimes.

ZTE Blade 10 prime root possible?

I will be trying this either this evening or Saturday. I can report back. If it works it won't let you do everything since no unlocked bootloader but will be good for many other things.

This worked for me:
1.) Download/Install App https://github.com/JunioJsv/mtk-e...v1.1.0.ap k
2.) Open app, toggle Run on boot, and Select Magisk zip (shouldn't matter which one; I went with 20.4).
3.) Wait a few seconds for it to install. When it asks you to reboot, do so.
4.) On reboot, open Magisk and update if asked.
5.) Once Magisk is fully installed, go back to MTK Easy Su app.
6.) Tap Activate Bootless Root.
Now I'm just looking for an ad blocker as adaway doesn't work.

Got my root working and got Adaway and AFWall+ running. Make sure in Magisk you have enable Systemless hosts under Magisk Manager settings. Then in Adaway make sure you go into preferences and check Enable systemless mode.

That worked for me! Thanks a lot!

No problem. Thanks for sharing that easy root method. If this Blade Prime 10 ever somehow gets full root or bootloader unlock it'll be an amazing phone. Already pretty great, especially since I got it for $25.

I know it's old thread but you can unlock the bootloader and root it with magisk via rom2box.
How to Root ZTE Blade 11 Prime - ROM-Provider
step by step guide to root ZTE Blade 11 Prime, after rooting the phone you can install any custom rom like lineage OS
romprovider.com
Follow the rom2box ZTE blaze 11 prime except from flashing both magisk patched boot.img (blade 10 prime have a/b slots) and vbmeta,.img (rom2box can't find it) . If you do flash magisk batch boot.img, it will prevent the phone from booting up (can't verify). Just flash the stock boot.img from rom2box output folder. and reboot
To bypass the boot verification, you need to unlock the bootloader. You need to go back into rom2box, mediatek>service! tab and try each buttons (format first, unlock method 1, method 2). This will unlock bootloader and now you can flash the patched magisk via rom2box firmware flashers. You might need to reboot it into edl multiple times to completely flash the boot.img.
