Hi guys,
I have a little issue : after unlock the boot loader,
loaded the TRWP 2.5.0
I tried to load update-superSU2.02.zip to get root privileges by recovery mode
I was done, but when I open the superSU app it told me it hasn't program
in effect su miss from system/xbin nor from system/bin.
Analisyng the superSU installation script I saw It use system/xbin/daemonsu but I can't find it into my directory
Daes Anyone know who install that program?
many thanks
[Solved]
I solved the problem:
the TWRP 2.5.0 provided with WinDroid Universal HTC Toolkit v1.2 doesn't work well, this recovery wasn't able to load cache partition (I don't know why) anyway with a version of trwp 2.5 loaded by promnpt
Code:
fastboot flash recovery c:\recovery.img
It worked

Can someone explain why this is happening:
After unlocking, I started with flashing stock-17.1.1.A.0.402-sirius-repack.img from http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/sirius and was able to get to the new recovery ok. I then proceeded to flashing superuser. After flash and reboot I tried installing busybox but the install failed (, I got the superuser prompt as expected but install still failed. Xposed framework also failed to install with error about not being able to write to system. AdAway also couldn't write to hosts file.
Then I flashed Doom's CWM-Based Recovery 6.0.4.7 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2702001 and everything started working.. busybox/xposed/adaway installed fine etc.
Why couldn't I install the above when running TRWP?

I've experienced the same and found that the official TWRP Kernel doesn´t have enabled write permissions for the device.
Just take DooMloards unofficial build for .402:

I hope this helps you.
Cheers, yeah, I figured it was something like that..
I'm having a similar issue with adaway not writing the hosts file and Root Exporter can't change to R/W. I'm on 314, used Easy Root and installed Supesu from the play store. Is there any way around this without installing a custom.recovery?
@irishrally I had to remove SuperSU then flash ClockworkMod SuperUser to get AdAway to work right, with SuperSU it always failed to copy the hosts file, with CWM SuperUser it copies & applies it with no issues.
Hello,
hope this is the right forum to ask.
I have rooted my SGP611 and now I wanted to install CM12 with TWRP. But when I try to install the zip file I have an error message: E: Error executing updater binary in zip....
I have no idea what to do.
Can anyone help please?
What method did you use to root and do you have unlocked bootloader?
I have unlocked bootloader.
1. I have flashed Stock 5.02
2. Installed Kingroot 4.1
3. Installed XZDualRecovery 2.8.15
4. Boot to TWRP and installed SuperSu 2.49 Beta
5. Reboot and updated SU Binaries then deleted Kingroot
6. Boot to TWRP again and installed Super SU 2.46 and RICDefeat.zip
After that all I tried to install CM12.zip but didn`t work...
I want to root my htc desire x and I more or less followed this - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zdhyDky2MI and have so fare unlocked the bootloader.
At this moment I got twrp-2.6.0.0-protou.img installed.
https://twrp.me/devices/htcdesirex.html
I installed the latest version of supersu through twrp recovery. I did also give the install instructions on the twrp webpage a go but to no avail.

When i open supersu on the phone I get this error message (loosely translated from danish).
"no binary su program file installed and supersu cannot install one this is a problem"

I do not have root. When I install supersu with twrp recovery mode it delivers a successful message at the end of install however I see no text in the twrp terminal/console during the install of supersu.
I have android-tools installed on my distribution which delivers fastboot as well as ADB. I have not setup SDK and am wondering if that is coursing issues. Though I get no such error messages.
No need to mess yourself with SuperSU as it is included in the ROM. Pick a ROM of your choice (i.e. Vimiro) and install. I assume you are S-ON (look at the bootloader in top). If so, you need to pick the kernel out of the ROM (open the package with Winrar) and take out boot.img. Flash manually as you flashed TWRP: fastboot flash boot boot.img. Then install ROM-package.
I don't particularly want to install a custom ROM. Do I have to?
What I want to achieve is to be able to move or remove some of the bundled apps, e.g. chrome - in an effort to free up storage, to an ext formatted partition on the sd-card.

It is not especially needed but handy You discovered already the SuperSu thread, maybo the solution is over there? Sorry, can't help you on SU problems. If nothing helps give another ROM a try (after backup). Most of the ROM's have nice features (also with custom kernel) and a installer on which you can select apps to install or not.
Hello,
i'm trying to root a Sharp B10 (SH-A01) with Magisk.
It would be nice if i could do this without unlocking because i want to keep the stock rom anyway.
First problem is that i can't find a custom recovery (TWRP, CWM) for this device from where i could install Magisk.
Then i found out that Magisk gives the possibility to root a device through the Magisk Manager App by patching the boot.img.
But the second problem is that i can't find the boot.img either. I spotted the boot partition on the device and tried to pull with adb but i would need an already rooted device to give the needed permissions.
Is there anything else I could do to get this thing rooted besides compiling my own TWRP for the device?
thanks a lot,
paul

Neither Magisk nor TWRP is needed to root Android: Chainfire's SuperSu does the job. You flash its ZIP via stock recovery "adb sideload"

Hi,
thanks for your answer.
I already managed to root this device. I got the boot.img with Wwr_MTK & SP flash tool (windows tools...), patched it with the magisk app and than flashed the patched boot.img
1. Unlock your bootloader enter in download mode Vol+ + Vol- + USB conected to pc (Keep in mind that by doing this you will lose your files, it is advisable to make a backup of your photos, music, etc.)
2. Once you start your cell phone install magisk manager, Choosing the boot.img file of your rom into the app (Tip: Only!!! If your model is SM-A015M Android 11 I leave you my own modified boot.img to flash:
File on MEGA
mega.nz
Otherwise, you can download the firmware (3.79 gb) and extract the boot.img from the firmware of your model SM-A015 M / F ... Android 10, Android 11... etc. And No need for pc
https://samfrew.com/model/SM-A015M/
3. The image will begin to flash
4. When it restarts you will have Root on the cell phone!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Extra: If you need the custom recovery I give you the link with my TWRP which is installed through the Odin program on a PC (this step does not delete your files)
File on MEGA
mega.nz
Keep in mind that to install TWRP you must deactivate the DM-VERITY & FORCEENCRYPT DISABLER I leave it in a link:
Zackptg5 - Android
zackptg5.com
This is a module that can be installed via magisk, which is necessary to decrypt the system ... so once TWRP is installed, it is advisable to uninstall it via Magisk to avoid R / W errors
Hi, thank you in advance for everything
I have bought one year ago a so&so phone (65$ on AE) : a FLUO N device.
It isn't a good phone, but it the least but not last i could choose at that time.
Well, all i want to do is to root it with supersu or with other tool. I can't find any recovery tool compatible for the device so in my lack of knowledge i haven't find any method to root this android 8.1 phone. KingRoot doesn't work, KingoRoot idem. Neither framaroot or other. I want to try magisk but it seems that it's a root tool but i can use it only if phone is already rooted. It seems that i can root it with a recovery tool, but it seems that i can't install a recovery tool if my phone isn't already rooted (and i can't find any recovery tool compatible with this little $hit )
I really hope that i'm wrong and so i'm here asking.
So i'm here asking if there's a method to root it simply by adb pushing a file in it. In Developer options it has "Unblock OEM -- It allows to unblock bootloader" enabled.
There's something i can do?
Thanky you so much in advance again.

@zatecaz
To root a device's Android neither Magisk nor any Custom Recovery ( TWRP et. al ) is needed. SuperSU should do the job.
If i dowload and install supersu apk when i open it this is what it says "Root undetected -- How To Root". If i click "how to root" it redirects me to supersu.com/faq/howtoroot that fails to load.
Now, i download either supersu apk that flashable zip. Is there a method to flash supersu.zip without a TWRP/CWM?
TWRP: doesn't exist a package for this phone. Does exist a generic twrp image for every android 8.1 ?
CWM: i could install it from Rom Manager but to do so the phone need to be already rooted. Or where can i find a cwm.img to be installed by adb and fastboot?
So without custom recovery, could i use my phone recovery and adb sideload to push supersu.zip ?
Thank you again

Yes, that's the correct method.
