Hello everyone i am new to the forums and i am asking a question regarding updating the su binaries on my phone. I got my g2 back in november because they were out of one m7s and this was the second best phone. So i went home and figured id root it. I didnt really want a rom i just like being able to record my screen and mess with the clocks. So none of the ways to root this phone worked so i tired this one in chinese. I succesfully rooted my phon. And it installed supersu. It said i needed to update the binaries so i hit ok. It said it failed. I tried updateing them by moving the .su directly to the folder, but sense i dont even have root permissions because i dint have a .su, it was unsuccessful. So what are my options? Im only 14 and kinda new at rooting, i have done it on two phones before, so please keep it simple. I dont care about keeping my data so i can i flash a stock rom? I. Tried it before but the method was for the 16 gig version which used a kdz file and sense i have a 32 gig version i needed a different file for some reason. In my phone settings it says im rooted and in recovery mode it o whatever pressing vol down and power with a usb connected do does, it says so to. I do NOT have access and i cant figure out how to update the .su and i could really use some help. Could you give me a link or something showing me how to flash a stock rom, or cyanogenmod? Or just getting a way to update the .su would be fine. Sorry for the long description i just want it to be easy for you to diagnose my problem.
Thanks,
Riley

You can check this thread about root on your device: [Root] Stump Root for LG Devices (2012 - 2014) Big update 1.2.0.
And here is the SuperSu app thread: [STABLE][2015.01.20] SuperSU v2.45.
In the first post there is also a zip file for flashing in custom recovery. If you use this, you won't need the binaries updating process like after updating via Play store.
For registered users, there is more help in the root Q&A thread for your device, and for the SuperSU app update in the SuperSU support thread.
Thread closed. Thank you.
I have read the other threads numerous times, and for the life of me can't get this phone rooted.
It is the D651 version and it's running Lollipop from an OTA update.
I tried rooting before allowing the update, but couldn't get that to work, so I decided to go ahead and update to lollipop thinking that would solve my problem
NOT!
I've tried KingoApp---FAILED
iRoot----FAILED, both phone version and computer version
Towelroot----FAILED
Does ANYONE have any suggestions?
I downloaded MTK Engineering, and went into MTK Settings/Log and Debugging/User2Root/Root
but that didn't seem to do anything either.....not sure why I even did that other than reading in one of the other threads to go into engineering mode and allow root.....I'm assuming that's what this means?
I am really getting frustrated by this...please, if anyone can offer any tips/tricks/or insight on what I am doing wrong, it would be greatly appreciated.....
Try Kingroot
First excuse my English but I'm using google , you need to download Aptoide ( which is an alternative app store ) from Aptoide you write browser and then install it , and looking for the KIGROOT installed application to appear clicking on the ' look at other stores " there will KINGROOT appear with an icon of lightning , is in Chinese , click on the icon and wait until the middle of root, then check with root checker , you then recommend to be root to delete the store of Aptoide.
Install a kind of SU called Kinguser , I install CWM or Philz , when I have you posting like . good Luck

Hello Buddy i just got this phone and the 1st thing i did was update it because it was on kk know it is lolypop and i used kingo root method and workede like a charm. it also gave me kinguser and purify..
Yeah, I managed to get it to work also.
Then went so far as removing Kinguser and replaced it with SuperUser.
Caused a bunch of problems in doing so, but managed to get everything in working order......to an extent.
Now, no matter how many times I try, I can not unroot or return to factory settings.
Even wiping the phone and flashing stock/recovery doesn't seem to work.
I've been trying to 'wipe' the phone and return it to out of the box status several times but.....no joy.
I'm going on a huntch
Means this is mtek phone
Thinking back to moto g the xt we had to get a unlock code from Motorola and use the n send this extra long key by email to moto for exchange of an unlock code.
Anyone think maybe same rule might apply?? Just guessing cause I want to see this thing unlocked an going cause this audio is really weak on my end and the touch screen is the pits when typing its like 50 x then it types the letter
I noticed after I used king root everything I changed started to go back to the way it was n or disappeared.
Kingroot seemed to work
Seems to work only for awhile until you start trying to make heavy system changesit starts to bugger up. I got that same page its in my opinion a temporary exploit method.
Hi, couple weeks ago I bought Acer Iconia One 7 B1-770-K476 NT.LBTAA.001. Seems that it is a new model and I can't find any info or faq how to make root on it. I tried different tools (framaroot, kingroot and others) but no success.
Also strange thing in setting (Apps), no option (button) to move app to SD card. Install some apps and tablet is full.
Will be glad for your help.
At first want to root it. Then need recovery to be able to use custom firmwares.
Thanks!
I used king root to root my tablet, but we gonna need a custom recovery to install xposed and be able to move apps to the sd
I also used kingroot to get root. The PC version, not the apk. To move apps to SDcard im using the paid version of Link2sd, the free one doesnt let you move the whole apps. I havent found any custom roms or recovery though.
carlosomar222, or unleashurfreak, can any of you elaborate?
I was unable to use KingRoot (PC version) because it never detected my tablet.
Where did you get the drivers?
You can find drivers on the acer support web site, but you can just try using the apk instead, its easier, by the way I managed to install xposed framework using flashfire that way you can run a module to use the SD card as internal storage , now we just need a custom recovery, i also replaced king root with super su using a script I found on a website, I can get the link if anyone is interested

The KingRoot APK did not work.
It was unable to find a solution for my device.
Could it possibly be because I have the latest update installed?
That's why I want to try the PC version instead.
Unfortunately, the drivers fail to install on my PC.
Are you also using B1-770?
Has anyone else successfully rooted this device?
And if you have, could you please share the steps you took to do so?
Really appreciated!
I also have a B1-770 with the latest update. The PC version of King Root failed.

Don't try to root b1-770 models, is brick your device.
I have tried many PC/APK rootkit, nothing work. For finish, I have returned the tablet on the store to get new one, OS have crashed (many errors with build-in apps, wifi problems, startup of device very long).
In my tests, I have found the reason of impossibility to root this tablet;
- Bootloader is locked
- No pre-root
- Android 5 have more security about rootkit
- Rootkit is only made for Android 4.x and lower
- Acer have added few security and reject all modifications on system files (with and without the Android protection)

For now, no. Many reason make it hard to root. is not impossible, but no right solution for this tablet.
Keep in mind...
- Android 4.x and lower have few security breach and can be rooted with many way; B1-770 is under Android 5.0.1
- Other Android device are pre-root (User on device is not root but if you connect by ADB, you have the root); B1-770 is not pre-root, SU is protected (trying modifing this files, and others make a crash when trying to update OS)
- Unlock bootloader, or unlocked bootloader can make easy root with right kit; B1-770 have a locked bootloader, Acer not offer any way to unlock it.
Is possible to root, but need a skill with Android OS, can compile your own Android OS version, insert root, and upload/replace it on the tablet. But you need to know what you made. You can also extract bootloader, modifing it, etc.... but need a high skill in Android security.
DON'T TRY FASTBOOT; Under ADB, you can reboot the device on Fastboot mode. But Windows not have the drivers for handle this mode. You need to Reset/reboot tablet for returning in Android OS (the hole between power and volume button).
I have searched many roots, because whant to move installed APP on my SD Card (with symlink), Android have removed this feature since 4.4.x (some devices have always this feature, is added by the developper). Rooting this tablet is totally unsafe; don't known if you loose some options of tablet (ex; my cell phone, if is rooted, camera stop working, with my other tablet, the wifi have some problems to keep connection long time).
My suggestion; wait a root and few comments about this before root. You must keep a unrooted tablet running good between a bricked tablet can't run anything.

Did you install any firmware updates though? I believe that's what's not letting KingRoot work as it did with you.

Any news on new root?
Need to get some developers on it, sadly this always happens with this kind of devices, best bet is to wait for a new method for similar devices using the same chipset
Hey
I rooted my acer iconia b1 770!
Download king root v.4.5 and let it flow...
Like many other threads I have browsed through, I too am having issues with King Root rooting and then suddenly rebooting my phone. After a successful reboot in the midst of not even 30% complete of rooting being complete, it still says my phone is rooted until the reboot occurs. After the reboot, it says I am not rooted. So, I still assume that King Root still has no methods to root this model yet. However, I am dealing with two issues I was hoping to get someone with experience, expertise, or just very smart with rooting Android platforms.
1. I was wondering if there is a way to root this model whether it can be done with with or without a computer or laptop. King Root has now become a system application that I can't remove because I don't have root access. I've tried everything to get rid of it. It constantly on a daily basis notifies me that it's trying to or that I need to try to gain root access. I would not have any issue reverting back to original firmware as hard reset has done nothing.
2. Is there a different firmware (I prefer the most recent update) available for this model? I could live with reverting back to the original firmware when I bought the phone in July 2016 from Cricket Wireless. I am not able due to the hardware or software thinking I'm rooted or suspicious of rooting so the update won't process after downloading.
This is my first post. Sorry, if I seem like a newbie here. I just haven't found any relevant answers on Google or searching the forums for similar posts. If there is a way to root successfully, please provide links or some instructions on how to do so. If not, I hope someone can help me revert my firmware to the newest or factory bought. Anything to just get rid of King Root and I know and have already accomplished disabling KR for the time being despite doing hard reset twice already. Is it possible to replace firmware with a new ROM as well?
Thanks for your time and God bless.

hello guys
I have a Sony Xperia Z3 (D6633) (android 5.1.1) and it's rooted.
so recently I wanted to update my phone and after I downloaded the update from the official software update app and tried to install it my phone restarted and then a notification showed that the installation wasn't successful.
so I searched and found out that it was because of the root, but I wasn't able to unroot. by the way, I rooted my phone with kingroot app. I deleted the kingroot app and then installed super su but I got su binary occupied error that I wasn't able to solve.
now I'm here asking for help to update my phone.
I also found an article about flashfire so I wanted to know that is it safe to use it. is it possible to lose data?
by the way, I know before doing anything I should do a backup so do you guys know a good way to do a backup? (I can't use the official software for pc)
I just wanted to add that I don't have that much knowledge about this stuff so it will be a big help if you explain things a little bit more.
try this thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/z3/general/recovery-root-mm-575-291-lb-t3435214
Excuse me but I can't seem to find the solution there. Can you explain a little bit more?
Is there anyone that can help?
