Hi everybody,
I have tried to root my Tablet S but it doesn'T work. I am on the 5a Firmware and I am using the AiO Tool v6.5. When trying to root it begins rooting, says it is rooted and then the restartes the device. When I check for root there is none. I cannot do any of the other options of the tool as they all need root and the tool tells me "su binary not found". SuperSu isn't installed either. Any way to downgrade and root or force root? I cannot flash any other ROM via recovery as it gives me an error when I try. Am I stuck with unrooted 5a now!
UPDATE: No I cannot even get a ROM installed. I can get into recovery and thats it. Any update fails because of "Erohibit update as a result of checking version or base sku". ADB doesn't recognize the tablet so my only option is some flashing over SD Card but how?!
Please help:crying:
Cheers!

I have Xperia U awhich i had rooted with Root_with_Restore_by_Bin4ry_v18 withouth unlocking the bootloader.
Recently my phone failed to start at the screen got stucked on the Xperia logo so i had to repair the installation by updating the phone with ICS from update service.
After that my phone seems to be half rooted, it installs the root apps like SuperSu , busybox but it has lost the su binary files.
The SuperSu gives the error 'Su binary not installed and SuperSu cannot install it'. I know this is a common problem i searched a lot on it and the best solution i fiund was to flash the SuperSu zip file from Clockwork Mod recovery.
But i dont have CWM as i didnt unlock my bootloader while rooting and i tried to install it but it didnt get installed as there was no su binary.
I cant un-root my phone i cant re-root it. I have tried everything but nothing works.
Is there no way i can have root access again?
I got a replacement Tab from sony and I'm having trouble rooting it with the updated firmware. Seems the only real way to do it is to have a custom recovery installed, however I am having trouble with that. When I try installing a recovery through fastboot flash command I get an error FAILED: Remote: Command not Allowed.
The installer version of XZDual just hangs at install.
Has anyone else on Verizon tab found any other ways of rooting after the latest update?

You have to downgrade firmware off 4.4.4 and root,
Got it working. I didn't know I had to have the unknown sources checked. Also I didn't realize I was plugged into a 3.0 port in the back of my PC, so that didn't help. Thanks for the help.
I have a Verizon Z2 LTE SGP561 with the latest update of 4.4.4 and i managed successfully to Root it with the latest KingRoot apk.
It was very easy - just download the KingRoot apk to your device , run it from the device and it will do the work.
After it will complete you will have KingRoot user which is the superuser app for permission, no need to install SuperUser of SuperSU.
I checked with root-checker to verify and indeed it was rooted.
even though the bootloader is locked you are rooted.
I managed to remove all Verizon bloatware apps.
You can find the latest KingRoot apk in the following link:

Hi I have a A520L Alcatel Pop Star Nova Lte. I had try many root method like Kingo Root, King Root, Towelroot, Framaroot and Wondershare MobileGo, all those cant root my phone successfully. Some are them success rooted but after 4 to 5 minutes I check "root checker" it says I dont have root access. Sometime on other way I go to stock recovery mode, it doesnt have "apply to sd card or external" which is sucks that I cant go there to zip any files or su binary update in order to root. It only have wipe data and wipe cache. I cant download CWM or any kind of app to flash it because I dont have root permission yet. Can anybody help to root my phone? Im running 4.4.4 kitkat.

you shouldn't need root to flash a custom recovery via adb in your phones bootloader.
I don't know what firmware you are on or much about your phone, but if you are on android 5.0+ you may want to find a kernel dev who can take your stock boot.img and make it permissive and implement the su binaries into the kernel. then you could flash a custom recovery then flash an updater script with the new kernel and su.apk
sorry I'm not a kernel dev or I would help you to do it.
I dont know whats firmware is but I know its running 4.4.4 kitkat.

So, here I'm stuck with the z3v after my 6plus sold to my uncle. Running E.44 and the root method seem not working, I already install the king root and can't replace with the superSu, keep saying "fail to update, reboot"... and trying to degrade firmware and the flash tool keep said "can't reconize device, check the driver....." Saw topic with instruction to kkng root temperary and "dual recovery" what's the dual recovery is it?
Is it possible that verizon will open bootloader for z3v??
install kingoroot and then recovery and then install prerooted firmware through recovery
no need to unlock boot loader... it's direct method

Follow my guide as worded. You've done the first step in rooting it with Kingroot. Now you need to use the dual recovery installer to install the custom Android recovery, TWRP. Then you flash my prerooted Lollipop.
So, I kind of rooted my device using Kingo Root and it wasn't successful (I guess). So, in fastboot mode, I tried OEM unlock and it didn't work too; but anyway, I flashed TWRP recovery into my phone and through that I tried to install CM 13,14 custom ROMs which was completely unsuccessful. It doesn't allow me to install any ROM. And says that root privilege is lost. And now, all that I have access to is a phone stuck in bootloop and TWRP which doesn't allow me anything to do because apparently root access is lost. :crying:
I tried every method of flashing via YGDP tool and it is stuck at 'entering download mode'. I have installed different drivers over and again to fix as suggested by different threads but still, it's the same. [Windows 8.1] . And is there any other tool to flash this same stock ROM or better, can I get root access again in a bricked device and install a custom ROM any way?:fingers-crossed:
I also have access to ADB sideload via TWRP, so can I get stock ROM in .zip format. So far, I can only find it in .CPB format; maybe I can use .zip stock ROM via ADB sideload to flash it. Please help if any of this is possible.
*Apology for such a long question but I think you guys must know everything in order to provide me with a fix*
It's fixed.

Its fixed now, I assume it was because of the ROM file being downloaded through chrome in phone, I downloaded ROM and GApps in PC and flashed through TWRP and bam! Its back on:laugh:
TWRP - 2.4.4
ROM - Resurrection Remix 5.7.2
Thanks anyways!
