Hey everyone. How are you guys able to keep root with 5.1? After the update, towelroot didn't stick. Nor could I reinstall it. Supersu doesn't have access either. What do you guys recommend?
You have to re root.

I used towelroot before, but now it says it can't support my device. How did you re-root your device? Did you do it within 5.1? Also, did re-installing TWRP work for you? I lost mine.
This is method I used before. tr.apk

I think someone said you have to use ADB to flash the new TWRP that is compatible with L on our devices and then flash SuperSU.
I just went back to 2.8.0.0 and it worked for me. Is there a newer version of TWRP?

It pretty easy to get root and TWRP. Here are the instructions, taken from another thread. (Do you guys even read this stuff?)
Credit to Foltz61.
1. Boot to bootloader.
2. Fastboot boot TWRP-L.img
3. Install supersu-2.49.zip (even though I didn't lose root)
4. Reboot back to system.
5. Reboot back to bootloader.
6. fastboot flash recovery TWRP-L.img.
7. fastboot reboot.
8. Boot to recovery and had TWRP
Thanks, I'll try it tomorrow. It's a bit hard to keep track of like 5 threads and 10 new pages in each thread each day.
Does it matter which SuperSU ZIP version we use? Chainfire website shows 2.46.

I was wondering the same thing. Could someone provide us with a link to a tested supersu-x.xx.zip so we may have it in one thread.
At this time it would be best to not flash twrp. Instead fastboot boot twrp.img then install beta.SuperSU. 2.49

Lollipop will check the recovery partition and if it isn't stock it will put it back. In order for TWRP to stick you must boot TWRP after you install to allow it to patch the lollipop rom. TWRP must not be read only or else it cannot install supersu nor patch.
You guys got a lot to learn, but this is good, because now maybe some of you will pick up some experience and grow while here on XDA
---------- Post added at 09:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:33 PM ----------
In addition, do not use TWRP from the official twrp website until Dees_Troy gets around to updating his personal device tree since they do not accomondate for the changes seen in Lollipop. You have been officially warned. Unless you like sweats, tears, and heartaches.

Used the one click script last night on stock 12b. worked great!
question. Now that I am rooted, I've been looking at threads about installing a custom recovery. Some info is old some new and I cant tell what's best so I figure I'll just ask. Sorry if the answer was staring me in the face in one of the threads. Can i install clockwork or twrp so i can backup my device and possibly start trying custom roms? I read stuff about Bump... and pre bumped roms but im unsure... any insight/explanation of whats going on would help. I'm coming from an older phone which, once rooted, was easy to load and switch between custom roms in clockwork.

If I just rooted my stock device with the above script and nothing else... am I 'vulnerable to Bump" ...just want to make sure I meet all the requirements before i try to install the recovery.

Yep, you're fine. You can even use the TWRP Manager app from the Play Store to download and INSTALL it. I've tested it, its bump'd too.

Just to confirm...So is it now unnecessary to manually Bump! our phones since, from what I gather in your posts, using TWRP Manager or Flashify to flash the Bump'd TWRP performs the steps outlined in the Bump! guide?
Edit: Just read in another thread that the 12b update disables the ability to set our phones to Ethernet mode which the Bump! guide requires. Am I right in stating that, in order to get TWRP flashed, we have to either downgrade to 10b or use TWRP Manager/Flashify?
Wish I didn't have to learn a new process each time I switch devices unless, of course, it's a Nexus. Just made the jump from the 1st gen Moto X to the G3 so I'm making sure I know and understand what's necessary, what works, what doesn't, and what's possible.

I never heard of that requirement. No downgrade necessary, period, if you're rooted.

Understood. Totally worth it, though. This is an awesome phone.
At least you're not asking about TWRP on the LG Pad 8.3 tablet. We have to downgrade the bootloader before using adb to write TWRP to the recovery partition.

You were eventually able to install twrp though right? Seems pretty straight forward and easy. Unlock bootloader, setup adb on comp, enable adb on phone, boot into twrp, flash custom recovery.

Nope. I missed that the unlock part was necessary! Thank you for giving the details though!!!!
When I figured that Device Only mode gives decent GPS use for maps, directions, and Pokémon Go I just decided to leave it be. Plus all this concern with root and Pokémon Go not working. I don't play much but I keep my phone as backup when my son's battery dies.

Can you tell me how to unlock my bootloader
I know this is not the best way to do so but I successfully got my G850A AT&T variant rooted using Kingroot 4.8.0.
Also when I boot up the phone, the lock icon turned into an open lock icon with the text "custom." Does that mean my bootloader has been unlocked?
I would like to install custom ROMs but had no luck installing twrp. Any ideas? I can try anything since this is a dead phone to me anyway.
If it is true, try SLTECAN twrp

That didn't work out. "SECURE DOWNLOAD" is enabled in download mode and when I try to flash the recovery it tells me "check fail: recovery." I guess the bootloader is still locked. Is there any way I could still install a custom ROM? Root is working fine.

There's no recovery image for it. The SLTECAN is only flashable via Odin which is not possible with the G850A.
Although I think we could get custom ROMs using Flash Fire if someone can port the ROMs to 850A. See: http://forum.xda-developers.com//at...tmas-heres-t3516196/post70011921#post70011921
You can create .img from tar or .tar from .img
Open tar.md5 with 7zip, extract .img to phone and use flashify, tell us if worked

Flashing 850W TWRP soft-bricks the device with the message "System software not authorized by Verizon Wireless has been on the device ..." blah blah blah. I think a Safestrap recovery is better suited for this phone.

Can you give us a tutorial guide on how to do it. Most of us (including me) have tried the version of king root that your using and it fails to root.
However, you have given us stuck with the AT&T variant of this phone a little bit of hope, as you confirmed it can be rooted.

I got the same thing. I've heard AOSP ROMs are not going to work because of the locked bootloader. And TouchWiz ROMs will work if you port in an AT&T boot image making it "authorized."

And there's an S5 version of Safestrap but it only works with a Kitkat kernel. It might work with the Alpha since they have basically the same specs. I might try it in the future.
Does the Kingroot version matter? I tried this with Kingroot 5.0.0 instead of 4.8.0, and while it seems to initially fail, it actually does work. Verified with Root Checker and Kingroot itself was able to give root access to apps. However, it appears to cause certain apps like Camera (Samsung's) and S Health to fail. Uninstalled Kingroot and everything was working again (albeit unrooted).

You have to use 4.81 because later versions do not allow you to remove it and replace it with SuperSU.

Hi all,
perhaps I am just getting to old - but I cannot seem to find the simple guide on how to root stock, international ROM. I have 2.3.2.7
Please note I am NOT asking how to flash the modded rom, but instead - how to root the newer Amazfit stock rom.
Many thanks in advance!!
Unlock bootloader, go to fastboot mode, boot using a modified boot.img with temporary (adb) root.
If you find a way to root Android 5.1 on a MIPS device, please tell me...
Hi thanks for the effort - I missed to mention I already tried that before posting.
Issue is that after flashing boot.img, watch loses adb connection and I cant proceed.
Reboot helps but temp boot image is no longer there, and then process gets back fo start.
Any help?

Don't flash the modified boot.img, use it to get temporary root access in adb:
Code:
fastboot boot boot_with_root_adb.img
Keep the original boot.img that came with the ROM/firmware intact, so if you run into any problem a simple reboot should fix it.
Once you have a temp adb root privilege by doing like lfom mentioned, then follow this https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/amazfit/local-root-amazfit-watch-supersu-2-79-t3711327

Works fine on my English stock rom.
There are some small mistakes in one of the sh scripts. I forgot exactly what I modified, but I can attach my modified script when I get home tonight.
Edit: Modified script attached
Just replace the original script with the attached one. All credits go to the original poster. I just modified his script a bit to root my rom.
My pace is currently on rooted stock 1.3.8a rom. As long as you can get root privileges from the temp kernel, I don't see why it wouldn't work on any other rom. It should also work on Stratos. I don't know for sure as I don't have one to try.
Thanks for all the help.
Happy again. Using Assayyed ROM kitchen and Saratoga's official 2.3.2.7 ROM thread I was able to mod the official rom and flash it back to device.

Get temporary root with a modified boot.img that works with your watch, then run the shell script Anox attached in his post, that's what the previous posts say.

As far as I know there are two kinds of root.
1- if you want to install something through adb usb that requires root you can make a temporary root, see for instance post 2 from this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/amazfit/rom-amazerom-pace-v1-0-20180618-t3805928
2- if you need root to use some app (e.g. to modify the DPI in the watch using the app "screen shift" version 1.0.0) you can flash the superSu using the script provided by anox in post 7 of this thread, for that you may need to make the temporary root first
you can then verify if you are rooted using for instance some of those apps in playstore.
by the way, browsers now work with the last version of Pacefield, so I prefer pacefield (that is already rooted and permanent) than the stock rom

I think you need first do a temporary root in order to run the anox script. Perhaps, in your case you can flash the supersu zip through twrp.

If anything works for you I don't know how to help. Sorry.

previously i flashed TWRP that bundled with this tool: https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/amazfit/tool-tool-one-driversunlocktwrpfactory-t3874802 but somehow i failed to install SuperSu from this topic: https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/amazfit/local-root-amazfit-watch-supersu-2-79-t3711327
if you have successfully perma-root your watch with stock ROM, please do guide me through.
thank you

at the time I flashed the superSU I had a stock ROM installed (found here in the forum, I don't remember which one). Then I made a temporary root (the img was found here in the forum too). Finally I use this temporary root to flash the superSU zip, I had to use the script provided by Anox here in this thread, instead of the original one.
If you cannot flash superSU, you may want to flash a custom ROM with perm root, I have using this in the last months: https://forum.xda-developers.com/smartwatch/amazfit/paceficator-project-wos-2-6-0-12-rom-v0-t3794922
you can also find other custom roms in the forum, also for stratos.
sorry I cannot help you more

Hi all, is it possibile to do a temporary root on Stratos with pace rom, bootloader on, sn null... I have Access to memory od this watch via windows? Thx in advance for any help.
My phone is an Honor View 10 model BKL-L04 (American model) build 8.1.0.133 (C567GT).
These are the steps that I used to remove the stock firmware and recovery and replace them with something more to my taste. I did < 1% of the actual work here, I'm just putting everything that I did in once place so that other people may not have to look so hard to find answers.
Requirements
View 10 - If you don't have one then you're in the wrong place. Do NOT follow these directions for any other phone as both the directions and the links are specific to the model mentioned above.
Cash/PayPal - Most of us don't have the skills to pry out the bootloader unlock code ourselves so we must pay someone who does. God knows the manufacturer isn't going to help us out here
SD Card - You can probably get this done purely on internal storage, but weren't you going to put in a nice, big SD card anyway?
SD Card Writer (optional) - You'll need a way to load files onto the card prior to flashing. IMHO getting an SD card writer is the simplest way, but to each their own.
Unlocking
This guy will get you an unlock code for your View 10 for $22 (USD). Order a Bootloader Unlock Code, select the Huawei option "with IMEI", put BOTH of your IMEI numbers in the comments field, submit it and pay via PayPal. I got a code in about an hour. Once you have the code you can follow these directions to perform the unlocking process. If you need a bit more help getting though it then try this guide.
Flash Recovery
Don't use the official TWRP images. As of Dec 8, 2018 neither 3.2.1-0 nor 3.2.1.-1 worked for me (-0 dropped to fastboot after a few seconds and -1 caused a bootloop when entering recovery). Use the latest unofficial image from this page. Directions included. More detailed directions can be found here but make sure to use the TWRP image from the first link.
Copy Zips
Now pick out a ROM (I went with LineageOS 15.1) and copy all the zips you need to your SD card. The list probably includes the ROM itself, gapps, and some type of su/root package. Put them all on your card.
Flash ROM
If you're going with LIneageOS 15.1 as I did then this guide should get you the rest of the way. It has the links for the ROM itself as well as gapps and the su package. Again, be very careful to match exactly your phone model and architecture (arm64 for the View 10) when grabbing these packages.
Extras
You can find the latest stock firmware image for the BKL-L04 here. Be damn sure your phone matches mine before you use it! If you need to pull out the stock recovery for any reason, you can use the update extractor to do this (grab recovery_ramdisk), then flash it the same way you flash TWRP.
Good luck and have fun! I'll try to help if you get stuck but the real knowledgeable people are those that wrote the articles I've linked to.
Cheers!

Is "twrp_bkl_0.7.img" the latest one?
As of Dec 9 I believe it is, yes.

I didn't have that issue when I was first flashing the ROM, but I do now. If you're having it prior to flashing your ROM would it be because you didn't wipe & format beforehand? The guide I linked in step 5 leads you through this procedure if you need it.
As far as the unmounting error, I think that's something we'll have to live with until the issue is corrected in TWRP.

I think it works if you wipe/format first. The guide I linked walks you through this.

Hmm. Well, you can either try one of the official builds (here) or wait for the guy doing our customized build to fix this issue. You might even post a note on this thread describing your issue so that he can track how many people are having it.
Sorry I couldn't be more help. The View 10 is not the easiest phone to work with by a long shot.

You have told that you have formatted your device, if you have formatted it from twrp it will cause issues, you should format it from emui system settings.
