[Q] Is using Xposed with pie temp root possible?

Each time I try to do it, I get an error and if I don't get the error Android OS crashes.
Can anyone confirm working on 4.4.2 Verizon locked bootloader with pie root?

I got the framework downloaded. Couldn't get the modules to download though. Google was also having trouble syncing. I dunno if it was from the framework, but when I uninstalled it, things returned to normal.

How'd you get the framework to end up downloading?

Id post a link if I could, but over at cricketusers .com there is a temp root thread under moto g forum. Near the end of the op it has directions to get xposed framework installed. Basically... Temp root, check with root checker, try installing framework once, normal reboot, reroot, recheck root, try again reinstalling framework and it magically works. Just be sure to soft boot after it finally installs.
(Edit) -just saw that you're using Verizon...it may not work, as I'm using cricket which has an att boot loader preventing the unlock...hell, give it a try though if you don't think you'll get a brick.

Root ATT S4 On 5.0.1

Hey guys! im Cole. Im new around here .
Anyways I managed to fix my phone from a soft brick using the 5.0 OTA Update and decided to root the phone.
Also This Didn't trip Knox for me. Im on 5.0.1
NOTE: I am not responsible if you happen to brick/Break your ATT GALAXY S4 (I337)I DO NOT KNOW IF THIS WORKS ON THE I337M
Anyways on with the rooting tutorial:
Ok, On your S4 I recommend that you have the OTA Package which you can get from Here https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95916177934552137
And You should have at least 50% battery life left.
Ok. Go and download Kingroot V4.5 http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/one-click-root-tool-android-2-x-5-0-t3107461
Install it. It should say that root access is unavailable. Click on Try to root.
It takes around 3 to 5 minutes to get root access. once done you should see at the top Root Successful or something like that.
If it fails I suggest that you either try again or just give up on rooting your phone.
But since ATT Has a LOCKED Bootloader we cant install a recovery i think. Anyways I hope you guys found this tutorial working and have fun rooting.
Oh yeah I forgot: Thank You Kingxteam for providing us with kingroot

Working Ha ? I Am Lollipop 5.0.1 .. I Need To Root Now .. Please Help Me

Can anyone confirm that this works? I remember someone posted a kingoroot here in the att s4 forums and it put a lot of junk on the phone
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using XDA Free mobile app

It works. I'm using it to edit my coc host file. I'll add some screen shots to this post to confirm that this works. Oh yeah. Kingroot just installs purify which I removed like any other app
I'm using my phone so I just looked up photo uploader.
I can't upload images yet since I'm new but this does work as long as it's the newer kingroot I had to reflash the 5.0update last night because I installed a recovery and as all ways it fails due the locked bootloader so I tried to root again and it works fine.

I suppose you mean Kingroot not Kingoroot. And no it will not

also guys: This is not using kingoroot. I am using kingroot. They are two completely different applications for root.

I ended up finding them on my own. Kingroot mobile didn't work but the desktop version rooted. I'd rather the binary was SuperSU for compatibility nags with titanium but it works.

Thanks! I rooted my AT&T I337 running stock 5.0.1. App method did not work. I used the kingroot desktop program from the thread here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/one-click-root-tool-android-2-x-5-0-t3107461
If you don't like the kingroot su binary, check out super sume in the play store. It replaces kinguser with supersu. Costs $1. Well worth it imo.
Edit: I'm on build OC4.

Yes. But, you can't just install SuperSU binary and use it to replace the KingSU binary. It fails.

Cool story.
But, this is so simple. Instead of having to flash this and that with flashfire and safestrap, you can just go straight from lollipop, use a one click root tool, and then use another one click app to switch to SuperSU and remove the other. It's simplicity, compared to keep root method, is great. Now, if we could just get someone to figure out how to do it with one step, we'll be golden. Many are thinking there is still no way to root straight from lollipop. This works. So, if these cats can do it, then another dev can figure out how to get SuperSU injected instead of Kingroot. If that can happen, then safestrap can also be updated to work with lollipop instead of having to swap kk kernel. This is progress.
edit: When I'm wrong, I'm wrong. I tried several times to update to 0C4 after using this method. It failed every time. Then, I flashed the rooted 0C3 with flashfire and the update worked flawlessly. I wouldn't suggest this kingroot anymore to anyone. Cheers.

Anyone tried to root stock OC4? Using this method

Worked for me
Desktop version worked for me even did the sume 1.00 thing. All rooted with Lolipop and SuperSU

What recovery to use
What recovery can I use because I used Flashing to flash ClockworkMod Touch and on restart I trying to goto recovery I got a Yellow triangle saying "there is unauthorized att software found on this phone". Can I use TWRP or some new one I heard about called Philz?

Just used KingRoot to root my I337 with OC4. Took a few minutes and then took off with a percentage rapidly climbing to 100%. Unfortunately for those of us who cannot read Chinese you have to feel your way through the user interface.
Here are some notes to help (I should have grabbed screen shots and will try to do so):
Make sure your PC has the I337 drivers and they work.
Enable developer mode on the I337.
Download and install the desktop version of KingRoot.
Connect the I337 to the PC with USB. Let Windows do its handshake stuff.
Launch KingRoot, it will find the phone and give you a screen (all in Chinese) showing how to turn on USB Debug mode. For English that is in Settings | More | Developer Options. Check the USB debugging box.
Phone will ask to verify the computer RSA key, accept it.
Phone also asked twice to allow Google to check for security threats. I declined both.
KingRoot will see that it can talk with the phone and do its thing.
A few minutes later I had KingRoot and root access on my 5.0.1 OC4 phone as verified with Root Checker Basic. It has survived a power cycle with battery removal.
Added screen shots from phone. Need to get some from KingRoot.
When KingRoot has everything ready you will see some Chinese text followed by Root on a blue (IIRC) button. Click that to launch the rooting.

SuperSU remains on phone after system update but cannot be accessed or deleted

I used a root explorer to access the file, it says it can't be deleted because it's read only. Going to superSU on the play store shows that it is installed and shows no option to uninstall. What do I do.

hello bududubdubdubs it would be easier to fix your problem if you tell me some details :-
1. mobile brand and model
2. native and upgraded android os
3. the software that you rooted the phone with

Sorry, it's a verizon lg g3. Updated from 4.4.3 (I think) to 5.0.1 and rooted with the one-click root.

How many times did you try the one click method? I sometimes need to re run it a few times.
You can also try the manual method.

I tried the one click way like 10 times. The first time I rooted it it worked on the first time, but since the update I have not been able to re-root it. I guess I'll try the manual way.

Root D850 Marshmallow?

Hai I flashed Turbo ROM and for some reason I don't have root... I have SuperSU but it says there's no su binary installed... Also I can't get into TWRP, because it hangs on the TWRP logo screen and doesn't get passed that. How can I root my device so I can fix my recovery, or the other way around? Thanks

go to play store and download supersu app. restart the phone. this will get you root. then install twrp app from google and reinstall it through app. i think this will help you get into recoery.

I already tried that :c. I ended up using the TOT method to restore 10D and worked my way through rooting it and putting a recovery on it. c: Now that the D850 has an official 6.0 update, I expect we'll see Marshmellow roots for our device c:

Just installing the supersu app does not give you root.

KingRoot gives you temporary root on stock D850 Marshmallow.
When you reboot/restart, you lose root and it takes about 3 minutes or so, using the KingRoot android app, to regain root.
The apps requiring root that I've tried have all worked without issue.
Whether you want KingRoot installed on your phone is another issue.
I haven't come across a better solution for getting root on stock D850 Marshmallow yet.

I just used the latest android app from: https://kingroot.net
http://king.myapp.com/myapp/kdown/i..._B263_office_release_2016_05_09_105203(1).apk
From the about section of the KingRoot app on my LGG3:
"KingRoot V4.9.2 143
Kernel Version v4.8.0 67 / Su version v3.61"

If KingRoot does work you could look at this https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=darkslide.com.supersumepro app to remove KingRoot and install SuperSU. I have not used the app I just saw someone on Reddit report that it worked for them.

This is correct. Be careful though. Many users want to uninstall Kingroot and switch out kingusr with superuser app. Doing this may result in soft brick.

Pingpong root no longer working?

I recently had to odin back to stock OE2 on my device and am trying to re-acquire root access however Pingpong root keeps telling me my device is unsupported when I attempt to Download Data as per the instructions. I rooted originally with Pingpong many months ago when my device was brand new so dont understand why this is failing. I am rooted now via Kinguser but dont like it as I would prefer to have SuperSU installed so that I can use flashfire. Anyone have any ideas? Its almost like Pingpong is not downloading any updated data, I have verified that my build number is right so totally stumped. Anyone have any ideas on how to get Pingpong to work again or another means of getting SuperSU installed and the binary to update?
Additional note: I never took any OTA updates, was on OE2 ever since unboxing the phone nearly a year ago.
Attached is a screenshot of my build version.

Which version of ping pong root are you trying? Not sure if that matters though.

Tried both versions listed, beta5.1 and beta6. Both say device not yet supported. I am thinking that the pingpong app is just no longer downloading the data required.

i wonder if i make a flashfire back up of certain partitions, if you can flash my backup and get the result your wanting. Im thinking just system partition. Since its a verizon gs6, you think it would work? Obviously i wont do the efs partitions.

Nothing really I guess, other than having to re-run the root process every time I reboot my device. Not to mention I cant get Flashfire to run with it so that I can switch to one of the custom roms that are available. Really have major buyers remorse with this bloody phone.

Wow thanks for this tip! Worked like a charm for me, Just had to make sure I was on an older version of Kingroot first then Super Sume worked its magic.
