First you must downolad king root.apk and instal like normal app
Now run this app and click "Try to root" wait about ~5 minutes and Done ! You have root acces
but... super user is china app and we wont SUPER SU !! so download mrw.zim and extract in main folder in external storage
Now download terminal emulator form google play and type
HTML:
su
grant root acces
HTML:
sh /storage/emulated/0/mrw/root.sh
and enter script don't work perfect (should remove china app but you can remove it manualy) wait until you see super su (don't instal it)
Now reboot and remove china app (super su should works normal)
Sorry for my bad english

Nice guide , will try it to my little brother E3
not work for me

Worked <3

Will be this worked on E4(e2105) with andandroid4.4.4?

Works beautifully, my friend. Though, might I point out that the script for Terminal Emulator is pointing Android towards the internal storage, not the external.
My D2203 with 4.4.2 on build 18.4.C.2.12 is now rooted. Many thanks.

Very Nice

[Completed] There's no su binary installed. This is a problem. Re-root how.

Hi. I have Xouch A2 LTE . I just rooted this device somedays ago with kingroot. But some apps don't work with it. Like Titanium Backup says, "your su version is valid but this might not work reliably." And some apps like LiveBoot. don't work at all.
It's maybe because the su version is too low. The apps recommends to use SuperSu.
So, I googled and found a way to remove KingUser and install SuperSu. From this page http://techstarnayem.blogspot.com/2015/07/how-to-replace-kinguser-kingroot-with.html?m=1 and saw their video tutorial. I did exactly what they did and Terminal Emulator did the same.
When I run the command below.
Code:
su
sh /sdcard/mrw/root.sh
And the KingUser was removed I could realize by a message from Es File Explorer and at the end of it SuperSu was installed and it launched. It told to update su binary and I hit continue and then chose normal way. In the tutorial the guy chose normal way too and it was installed successfully but it didn't work for me. Supersu told to reboot and try again. When I reboot Supersu was installed into the system and when I run SuperSu it says, "There's no su binary installed and SuperSu can't install it. This is a problem. If you just updgaded to Android 4.3, you need to re-root manually-consult the relevant forums for your device!

Unable to get a root shell in ADB

Preface: I am trying to attain root, on a un-rooted device, Samsung xCover3, (Note: Root is able to be achieved on kit-kat, and marshmallow, not on Lollipop, which is the current device I'm working on. My XDA thread incease someone say's "follow this", Becuse I created that thread) implementing chainfires systemless root by hand (No working TWRP for lollipop, plus we have an uncommon boot.img which chainfires SuperSu.zip probably couldn't handle).
Prep-work:
- Created a su.img with relevant files inside (Needed for Systemless root to work). Note: This is the file that needs to be pushed to /data.
- Modified the Ramdisk to launch daemonsu (needed to mount su.img for systemless root) as well as changed the defult.prop to
Code:
ro.secure=0
ro.debuggable=1
ro.adb.secure=0
to allow for ADB to be able to be run as root.
- I then also patched the sepolicy file with the default patches as done by chainfires SuperSu.zip
- I then recompiled the kernel so Samsung's Anti-root features and TIMA aren't enabled.
Problem: When typing `adb root` my id does not change to root (0) instead it stays the same, as before hand.
Note: In the below image, daemonsu service should also be running, but I believe what ever is stopping ADB root, working is also probably what stops that service.

Reason/Questions, why??
- Maybe the sepolicy doesn't allow it? If so how would I patch to allow adb root to work
- Am I missing something Obvious?
So what is needed to be done to allow for "ADB root" to work?
My question is also on Android Stackexchange

Help for enabling a permission for an app !!!

I want to enable a special permission for an app using ADB Shell. My phone is non-rooted & locked bootloader & Device name: Xiaomi MI A3, Code name: laurel_sprout. Apk name: Pokemod Espresso.
I've used this code but failed:
Code:
adb shell pm grant com.pokemod.espresso android.permission.QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES
ADB Shell says this is an unknown code. I found the permission name on another third party permission checker app from Google play store. Here's the photo where I found the permission name.

Always enquote the command that adb shell should perform
Code:
adb shell "pm grant com.pokemod.espresso android.permission.QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES"

Do you know how to fix it ?

You were told the reason why it failed
Code:
Exception occurred while executing:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unknown permission: android.permission.QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES
THE PERMISSON YOU WANT TO GRANT DOESN'T EXIST IN THE APP.
Contact app's developer.
