I happened to get temp root with kingroot and unfortunately it gets highly unstable as time passes...
Any way I can use this to get a stable permanent root or unlock the bootloader?
Any ideas would help as I have been searching google like crazy since I found out it gave temp root.
I do get access to data and system when in root browser with ES File browser but I doubt changes will stick...

Hi, I've been messing with android phones for a while now, and I've seen a couple things, one of which being temporary root for the MT4G. I have a NS, and I don't want permanent root (not for a little while anyways), but there are a few applications, like the honeycomb music player that I've come to love, that need root to install.
So I was wondering if anyone knew any ways to temporarily root a Nexus S. I just want temp root so that I could replace the stock music player and a few other basics. (I assume that when I reboot and lose root then I would still be able to use them)
Any help?
Thanks
No, theres so such thing as a temporary root for Nexus S and I don't see a reason for this.
For the MT4G / G2, it wasn't created to make a temporary root.
The root is now permanent, it wasn't permanent because when you reboot you would lose access to root. because of HTC's method.
I see a reason
That is to be able to back everything up then unlock boot loader and root (since it wipes eveerything)
So,.... messing about as we do, trying to get an app to work that wont work on rooted device, I installed voodoo to temporarily hide my root and it seemed to work.
but now I cant regain root access. 1: Not sure if voodoo is the issue
2: tried all fixes that I could find on here and nothing working for me
Not really an issue at the mo and I'm sure theres a work around but this is quick fix / quick question
Can I just Flash a new custom rom without root access?
I was going to try a different rom anyway. and don't mind losing data, apps etc
just need to know that I can flash without root and not going to get stuck somewhere
Cheers

Any other views on this?
Is there not an option in Voodoo where you can hit "Restore Root" ?
Yes there is a re-root option in voodoo but this clicking this doesn't give me back root.. Titanium backup tells me I don't have root, as does a root checker basic app i have, tells me I do not have proper root access
Is the SuperSU/Superuser app still installed? If not reinstall it and reboot. Try that.
I have the ZTE Warp Sequent N861 that I want to root for memory swapping. I tried using DoomLoRD's ICS root, and SRS root for android. Some of the root checker apps on google play say my phone is rooted, some say that it isn't. Any of the programs that need SU permission are not working, saying that there is either no root, or no superuser permissions. I'm not sure exactly what the problem. I reset my phone back to factory restore but the su program is still there and now I don't know what to do. Any help at all would be appreciated, I can't seem to figure this out. Thanks!
Recently I noticed that Kingo root gives temp root but doesn't let you edit system files and there is no super user app either. Is there a way to work around this bug? I really would like to jailbreak this phone. Maybe a potential downgrade while temp rooted?
I was browsing the threads in the development section and someone had said there was a temp one which confused me because I thought rooting was a 1 and done type of thing. Is the temp root a thing on the G920V? I really just need to make a thing or 2 system files and if possible get rid of the bloatware. Are either of these possible with a temp root when it goes back to normal?
