With this module you can now have full RW on the /system while Booted into the OS

Thank you for the heads up man!!

Thanks! Worked great! Was able to uninstall all the bloat without having it come back on reboot.

I was able to remove the bloat without doing this. I have s-off and am rooted. Doesn't having s-off grant us this anyway?

I didn't try it after S-OFF, but after doing this mod. Did the bloat return on reboot? If not, looks like this may not be necessary.

Bloat has not come back after several reboots.

Oh snap! Ok sending donation as soon as I get on my laptop!
Has anyone yet provided a step by step video by chance? I know nothing about adb stuff as I've never had to use it so reading the firewater instructions I'm a little lost :/. Haven't tried installing weak sauce root either yet, is this easy or a video? I believe i need weak sauce root installed first? Then S-Off, then I install twrp? How would I install twrp and after I do install does it then install full root then can delete weak sauce?
I'm sorry I know this literally was release an hour ago but just hate to brick my device out of ignorance and not knowing. Appreciate any help for someone like me that doesn't use adb or sure of the methods and steps here.

I believe a few people are working on videos as we speak. Should be done soon.

This community and it's members/devs are freaking amazing! Thank you!

cant get it to work how did some one do it

has anyone tried to flash the kernel yet?

It looks like we have R/W access without doing this after firewater. I've added/removed stuff from /system without any issues(apps, priv-apps, stuff from the media resources, etc)
edit: I've done probably 20 reboots with no issues along the way of modding stuff and still everything is fine.

really did it stick after boot?
edit
nevermind you answer is in your edit

You do not need this kernel mod after you have S-off'ed and perm rooted.
I have personally tested this. All system changes survived hard reboot (via adb reboot)

I posted a guide here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2708628

tried to install a boot animation with rom tool box didn't stick

Confused about if there's root for 4.4 etc

Ok so I got my XT1080 few days or whatever and it had the first 4.4 ota, you know the one with the transparent status bar but still that blue jelly bean hue on the status bar etc.... So not thinking of it I just decided to see if there was another ota and there was so I got it and now I want root.... Here's what I want to know please.. Without telling me to go read 30 pages on another post can someone just tell me
Is there root for me
If so do I have to have boot loader unlocked, I've had phones with locked boot loaders and still flashed Roms
Can I flash Roms on this device with a locked boot loader via twrp
I mainly read that you have to downgrade to a certain version use jcase method it something? I got lost in that bounty post..

Yes there is!
Note
This little guide assumes you know how to install adb and use basic command-line tools.
First, flash your phone back to a older version with rsdlite. (instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53141176&postcount=6)
Second, use jcase's pie exploit. (instructions: http://forum.xda-developers.com/mot...-x-pie-motorola-devices-t2771623/post53128101)
Third, use motowpnomo, but executing "adb shell /data/local/atvc/root.sh" in a separate cmd window every time the device reboots (instructions for motowpnomo: http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/orig-development/kill-write-protection-motowpnomo-t2551113 as for the command, just spam it till it goes through)
Forth, install your superuser application (and safestrap if you want custom rom functionality)
Fifth, profit!
Note that you do have read/write access to system and root access, but still a locked bootloader.

Wow I love you!

alright my inner noob is going crazy. i see a zillion threads on how you need to roll back to 4.2.2 rom. my question is do i need to roll back if im on 4.4 stock?
i must have downloaded every tool and rom needed by this point. a step by step would be awesome. lots of tutorials available but im seeing they are mostly off of the x which i do understand is practically a sibling to the ultra and maxx.
any info or step by step would be awesome. lastly if i dont need to roll back to an earlier version that would be super. thanks!!!

19.5.3 it should be made known i plan on using the phone with t-mobile and the outside hope that i can have a fully functional phone with lte...

Well that makes things more difficult, TMobile has an LTE to Voice/text handoff issue present in 19.5.3 and 19.6.3. I hear its corrected in 4.4.4. Do you have an unlocked boot loader?

Boot loader is not unlocked. However if I do the update I won't be able to get root. Correct?

Correct. You are on the correct version to begin root. With Jcase's pie and run wp off. You can keep that when you update to 19.6.3 however when you update to 4.4.4 youll lose root (unless you preserve it) but you definitely lose wp off

You don't need to downgrade of you are on 19.5.3. You just need to run motopie then motowpnomo.
You can't unlock the bootloader unless you have a code or a developer edition.
No recovery or rom needed.
Root-wp off- Root survival mode in supersu- update to 19.6.3 then stay there unless you want to update to 4.4.4 to address the tmobile lte issue
Then the sequence would be Root-wp off- Supersu survival-update to 19.6.3- supersu survival-update 4.4.4

[Q] Question about root on 05Q

Is rooting the OPO on 4.4.4 05Q the same as rooting it on 4.4.4 44S? thanks a lot guys. I couldn't find any answer on this anywhere else considering this update is fairly new

Yes. It's the same no matter what firmware version you're on.

...and you just need to update SuperSU app in order to maintain 05Q rooted (if previous version was, of course...)

This is odd. I was previously Unlocked, and Rooted, with SuperSU 2.37. After OTA update to 05Q, my Root is gone. No SuperSU app in my installed program list.
Okay, so I go look for the latest, find that it's now at 2.46, download, reboot, flash (no errors), reboot, and i'm back into my phone. But: Still no SuperSU in my apps list, and I'm getting warnings from XPrivacy that it's not running. Does anyone recognize these symptoms? Am I still rooted or not?

thanks guys so can i use any 4.4.4 root toolkit?

i guess you can, unfortunately i'm not skilled in android things but as timmaaa said nothing changed between 44S and 05Q so your toolkit should work if you root your phone for first time. Take a little time to install custom twrp recovery and make a nandroid backup first...just in case of...

Don't use a toolkit, they're bad news. They cause more problems than they're worth, plus they allow you to do things to your device without actually knowing what's going on, which is bypassing some very crucial learning and knowledge.
This phone is very easy to unlock and root. Very easy. Just go to my guide thread here:

Verizon HTC One (M8) Lollipop root

Hey everyone ... I got the OTA update for my HTC One (M8) on verizon a few weeks ago and now I've gotten bored with it and wanna play around with some new roms. I've been trying to unlock the bootloader and root and every single solution requires it to be on android 4.4.4 or less. I can't figure this out and was wondering if anyone could help me out or let me know if there was a way to still do this. Thanks

You are stuck. No root/unlock for Verizon on the 5.0.1 update and no way to downgrade.
As of yet, at least.

I'm in the same boat. I really wish I would have unlocked when I had 4.4.x running. Now I'm stuck with 5.0.1 and stock bloatware until SunShine updates. argh.....

Until SunShine updates, you may disable most bloatware in the app manager.

When I run Sunshine it says I already have S-Off from previous root, what do I need to do if anything?
When I run supersu it says no su binary installed and that if I just upgraded to android 5.0 I need to manually reroot. and when I try to run twrp manager, it says root is required.

you probably just need to flash twrp via fastboot and then root.

Flash TWRP 2.8.6.0 via fastboot. Then you can install super-su or a custom ROM.

Whenever they find an exploit.

I'm just guessing here but I think they might be working hard on getting the M9 (verizon ) S-off and unlocked before doing anything with the M8 Lollipop .......just MHO

Started OTA and Stopped 1/2 Way
***UPDATE***
I answered my own question. I was just able to run Sunshine and it tested my phone. My gosh how relevied I was to see that it passed. Talk about dodging a bullet!
_______________________________
I, like the posts above, got a refurb M8. I did one update, but held off on the other.
I checked and I'm still running 4.4.4.
Do I have a chance of rooting/s-offing/unlocking?
Will sunshine work and what do I use to root? I used weaksauce before, but that isn't supposed to work now (from what I hear).
I'm glad I didn't to the last OTA update, but not sure where to start/turn now. Actually I only postponed it for 12 hours. It really wants me to update. {getting worried}
Thanks;
A (very very hopefull) Bug :fingers-crossed:

The hold up on both the m8 and m9 is a root exploit for android 5. The security in android 5 has taken a huge leap forward and closed all of the known root exploits. Until another is found, verizon devices are stuck unless you go the java card route. Just look browse the verizon note 4 forums, they don't have a root exploit either.

Better answer than the extremely rude one I received earlier. Even though I was in the wrong for asking for an ETA, there was a better way of telling me to not ask that.

Does This CF-Auto Root Trully Works ON G930T

guys i want to root my phone on the fast and very simple way possible.
found this root method on https://autoroot.chainfire.eu
this is the link for the root method https://download.chainfire.eu/982/C...Auto-Root-heroqltetmo-heroqltetmo-smg930t.zip
i did not tryed it my self yet. but if theres a user that rooted their phone that way, let me know.

bump

I don't think this will work unless we get our Bootloader unlocked (which hasn't been done yet as far as i know)

UNLOCK BOOTLOADERS
If you have locked bootloaders, flashing one of these will probably brick your device - with the exception of Nexus devices, which will usually automatically "OEM unlock" and wipe your data !

this is kind of lame.... why chainfire release a auto root if the thevice have bootloader locked down? and onlockable?

Confused myself
I want to say root is possible, there are tons of sites with instructions: https://www.google.com/search?q=SM-...i57j0j69i60.9343j0j4&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
Of course, XDA doesn't seem to have a specific G930T thread for rooting with instructions, then see threads like this today. I was all set to give it a try, but unsure if should proceed...
Did find this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-galaxy-s7/help/sm-g930t-root-doesnt-void-warranty-t3415936
EDIT: so the one linked in original comment was the bleeding edge root process and seems like had a really high failure rate. Most current I've seen is: http://lifeatsamsung.com/root-t-mobile-galaxy-s7-sm-g930t-2/
Seems a little more clean cut and easy. I'll edit again if I find a newer solution or at least commentary on success/fail
In comments OP posts:
Yes I am planning to make a video tutorial.
Also I used the method provided here (this is Max Lee's website)

Worked for me, no problem. Even installed the debloated, deox'd ROM. Unfortunately after root you will need to follow rest of guide, otherwise you will see some lag issues.
On the other side of it, phone is great, fast, if not faster than before, and got root. Let me know if you would like some screenshots proving a TMO phone is rootable or if can answer any questions

This means that the only rooting method right now isn't as stable as it would be if it had a unlocked bootloader the root right now will cause some issues but they can easily be fix from some of the steps after rooting guides that are in the xda forums and yes it using a Qualcomm processor Witch is pretty much the snapdragon and there hasn't been any luck this past year of getting the bootloader unlocked for full and smooth rooting I'm really ****ty at explaining sorry if your still lost

The Chainfire method he released does NOT work. I'm not sure why he released it...maybe he knows of a future bootloader unlock that we don't know about.

What else can I try? I am on PK1 as the phone is new from the store yesterday and a fresh shipment to them the day before.
I also see a DM verification verify failed dialogue at the bottom when i try the factory reset. No DRK

Remove any existing drivers for your S7 and install this one
http://www.samsung.com/us/mobile/ph...7-32gb-t-mobile-gold-platinum-sm-g930tzdatmb/
Make sure you click allow on the pop-up on your phone after you plug it into the computer... Good Luck!

Sorry for being daft... I don't see a driver link and how do I remove the previous version?
