I've done my researches and I'm about to root w/CM7 and was wondering is there an app that when i recover i and do so without having to do it one by one. Thx in advance and in SOLELY YOUR OPINION what ROM would you recommend for a first time rooter?
You can root any ROM.
Its not like you can root only custom ROM; you can root stock ROM also.
Rooting is different than flashing.
I was thinking to install a custom rom on my tab its not rooted running stock 4.1.1 i wanted to know if i root it will i install my installed apps? if not will i lose them when installing a custom rom? if so how can i backup them?
Hi!
Been using ROMs and root for a while on my S3, but since I lost it Im back to an old htc wildfire s. Ive installed a custom ROM(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2735775&nocache=1), but it is unrooted. Standard rooting methods do not seem to work, how would one go about rooting a custom ROM?
Hola, if you have a custom rom installed, i guess you have unlocked it. Maybe you dont have superuser installed, i guess?
What root method did you use?
And you can try to flash the superuser binary (http://androidsu.com/superuser/)
Hope it will it, reply back if you need more help
Thanks, flashing superuser worked
I have Indian moto g 16 GB Android 4.4.4 I have a few questions
1. I just want to root it without any custom recovery or rom. Only to try apps which require root. I am not interested in custom roms, happy with stock rom. I found Modaco's method for it. But many users did not find it working. Is there any other SIMPLE AND STABLE method for it without messing up with stock rom and recovery?
2. If I successfully root it without custom recovery what will be steps to unroot it and revert it back to stock 4.4.4 so that I could receive future OTA. (i had rooted my HTC one x with custom recovery so I know about unlocking bootloader). Will this process include flashing stock rom as there is already stock rom in phone
3. Is is necessary to download stock firmware if someone decide to revert back from rooted phone to stock. I mean not everyone has fast Internet connection to download those big 400-500 mb . Zip files. I read somewhere that we can backup the entire rom after rooting. So why not flash that backed up rom for reverting process. Why need to download..and For backing up the stock rom do we need to root with custom recovery or the Modaco's method (stock recovery root) will work.
You may find my third question stupid but I am not much into this stuff.
Please answer my all questions whether it is yes or no. You need not to provide detailed descriptions but just clear my confusion. I couldn't find these type of questions anywhere else on Internet. So may be useful for other users too. Thanx

Hey...yes you can root it but doing so requires an unlocked bootloader(which wipes all data on the phone..so backup)
To revert root you'll need stock recovery(since you say you don't want a custom recovery, skip flashing the stock recovery) and untouched stock ROM...
you can either download a stock fresh stock ROM[recommended]
Or
You can revert all root changes you did to the ROM(Xposed, root,busybox, e.t.c.)
Cheers mate
thanx for replying..
Ok reverting will be enough? I thought stock rom is no more Pure after we root it either by stock recovery or custom recovery. And if i choose the reverting method, how much total apps will i have to delete/uninstall?

You'll will have to remove all root adjustments you made...if you can't remember them all, it's best to flash a new zip...but in my case it was only Xposed and root so I uninstalled Xposed within the app, then went to supersu to revert root.
Good luck

Thanx sir, Good Day
1. Try Paul O´Brien´s (that guy from Modaco) method. I rooted my Moto G with stock 4.4.4 like a month ago. No need to mess with the recovery, easy and simple.
2. There is an option in SuperSU that deletes all SU binaries from the phone. It is not needed to update though. You can update with SU installed, unless you modified any system files that the OTA wants to patch.
3. No, as mentioned in 2. Just unroot, uninstall xposed and you are done.

Hi,
I own a Karbonn Titanium s10 and I am running stock firmware, rooted(superSU). Now I want to flash custom recovery CWM/TWRP, but did not find any custom recovery for this device also I want .zip flashable Custom Roms. Stock Rom is not good. I have rooted my device with KingRoot then replaced it with superSU successfully.
Can someone port any good rom for this devices? Also I didn't found any thread regarding this device on this forum thats why I decided to start this thread. Hope you'll help me.
Thank You
