Hi folks. Upon checking Root Checker Pro, the app says I have root, but it also says that the binary files are not installed. See photos attached. Is that possible? If so, can someone help me out to update the files?
See if theres an update for SuperSu on the Play Store. If there is then update it. It will then ask you to update the binary.

Thanks - SuperSu was updated, but the issue still remains......
How could the binary files not update when busybox is installed and Root Checker is saying I'm rooted? Having issues writing to both internal storage as well as SD card.
Having the same issue on another phone model, if you got yours solved pls share how you fixed it.

Question: Anything extra needed besides the flashing the zip & installing the apk?

Which is exact link I should click in phh's SuperUser?
Having the same issue - Total noob here!
I have Magisk but I have never had SuperSU. Does it matter that I don't have it and if so, how can I get around that without flashing/recovery etc and starting all over again?
I have the SuperSU app, fairly certain it's useless as I have Magisk. I have downloaded a patch for SuperSU in the lucky patcher to make SuperSU pro. Again, is this all pointless?
Any help greatly appreciated. I'm sure at the very least, someone can get a laugh at what, a complete noob I am
I will admit when I started this journey I had NO IDEA how out of my depth I would find myself :laugh:

So, when I rooted I installed SuperSU and uninstalled Superuser.
Went through the steps to from the mod to get all apps into the multi view window. During the move odex services I got stuck in bootloop and had to re-odin the root image file.
Now that everything is set superuser is obviously the file back in charge of handling SU prompts from apps but for some reason it's not accepting/hearing them so anything I install that requires root is crashing.
Attempted clearing the SU data but it didn't help.
Is there anyway to fix this short of flashing back to stock then back to root?
Would mounting the system as writable, deleting SU and then re-flashing the root image fix the problem?
Basically I'm trying to avoid resetting my phone up to get this done.

I thought for sure that SuperSU is what was used in that file but I guess there must be a couple out there? The method I used never installed Superuser...?
EDIT: Nevermind I see that there are 2 different root methods and one uses SuperSU. Sorry

I used the file from imnuts, which used superuser and not supersu.
I went ahead and deleted superuser, xbin/su and am reflashing. hope this fixes the problem.
which worked until the phone randomly rebooted and got stuck in loop..
and it was either sdpeed increase or lbe privacy guard causing it.
jellybean works better with supersu...try the file mrRobinson created...ie the original root image.

Ive even removed superuser and installed supersu and doing the all apps mod was causing this issue.
I have a feeling it could be because I was renaming the services.odex file before replacing it.
Trying a direct overwrite was causing a non stop bootloop I couldn't get out of 4 seperate occassions.

after rooting I feel like the touch screen has lost some sensitivity. not sure if it's just me and the day or I'm just loco.
and what I mean specifically is when flipping through my home screens they like to snap back now and then.
Just got my G525, and i must say its really nice!
While i was browsing the default apps i noticed a Chinese SU app that couldn't understand.. so i deleted it and install Koush SU... but for my bad luck ( i guessed that if it already had a SU app that it would be rooted) sadly it isn't Root.
Anyone have any ideas how to root the G525?
Thanx in advance

Did it work?
I am very new to this and in the past my older brother was taking care of all my "technology problems" . I just bought one for myself, since I have just lost my old huawei..... I am currently still in china, but planning to go back to germany. I really want to get my google account restored/google market. I read a lot of threads regarding this topic, but still want to clarify some questions. I would rly appreciate ur help/input.
I know that in order to get google market running on the huawei g525, u will need to root the phone. Once it is rooted u will need to find a english/german android version ROM for the phone. There seems to be some talking about entering the recovery mode somehow (i dont rly understand this step). After the ROM is on the phone, u can download google market and access ur google account?
Here goes my questions ：
1.) How to root my phone? Special program needed or pressing three key combo (volume + power + call)?
2.) Where to find a english/german android version ROM? On the website of Huawei? How to install it?
3.) Further steps?
Apparently there is another way to this all, by using a SD card and some kind of recovery zip:
Last option that i read was after rooting ur phone and installing 2-3 apk files.:
These are the steps:
1.Make sure your phone rooted and the R.E Explore been installed
2.Make sure you have GoogleLoginservice.apk and GoogleserviceFramework.apk
3.Copy the 2 apk(GLoginservice and GserviceFrame) into your SD card.
4.Open RE.Explore and find the 2 apk(GoogleLoginservice.apk and GoogleserviceFramework.apk), Copy them.
5.Paste them into System/App.
6.Restart your Phone.
7.You can login gmail/gtalk/Google play with your Google account now!
Thanks in advance for the help and sorry for the long thread !

There is one, it's really easy...
1) Install ADB Drivers and enable developer mode (google for that)
2) Download 'Impactor' from http://www.cydiaimpactor.com/
3) Open the app, you will see '# drop SuperSU su to /system/xbin/su'
3) Click 'Start'
4) It will check for exploits, if it's successful; continue, otherwise stop here
5) Install 'Superuser' from the PlayStore
6) Click 'tap to check for updates' and update
7) There will be a request for superuser access, accept it
8) Rooted!
Greetings
PS Just did this, it worked very well!

How to unroot G525? Thanks
Huawei G525 stock rom with internal storage (/system) problems!
Hello all,
Huawei G525 owners, could you please verify original stock ROM () with error in /system partition?
Specifically I have in the local storage a folder named e2fsck_log which in every reboot fills up with error files regarding:
/dev/block/mmcblk0p17: Inode 14881 has imagic flag set.
/dev/block/mmcblk0p17: UNEXPECTED INCONSISTENCY; RUN fsck MANUALLY. (i.e., without -a or -p options)
I have no idea if I can ran e2fsck because with adb I only get a $ shell (not root), and if I don't want to root the phone.
Does anybody else has the same problem? Please check if you have e2fsck folder with contents in Local Storage and confirm (that might be a stock rom Bug or something else - internal memory block problem!)...
Thanks

Kingo Android ROOT is better than VROOT because it's in ENGLISH. Even there is one VROOT english version, you will end up with chinese on your phone. nusigalaxy, thanks for the info.

It is a RAM problem. I had my phone replaced for this by Huawei... Go for it.
I'm in need of some kinda urgent help and advice regarding a phone i have just purchased for my mother.
I've bought her a cheap Daxian TD888 on the MTK6589 chipset and i'm afraid i have been a silly boy and not done my research before purchasing - I was under the impression that it came with the Play Store installed etc and sadly, it comes with a hard to use chinese ROM.
Mothers being mothers, mine isn't anywhere near tech/phone friendly and this is her first smartphone (upgrade from a 6 year old Nokia/symbian brick) so i was wanting to get her onto a nice and simple stock android 4.1 or 4.2 or even a CMxx that i can just help her along with.
After some very panic based searching today, i'm not seeing much that can help me... infact... nothing regarding this phone at all.
So... have I been a dumbass and bought her a lemon or is there anyone that can help me out with advice or pointers on how to get a normal android ROM on this thing?
I'm not massively experienced with rooting but have managed it a couple fo times in the past on my old Nexus One.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I could probably help you get it rooted and that would allow you to install Play store on it as well as delete any chinese apps that sometimes come on the MT65XX devices if interested. As far as the rom goes, is there not an option in settings to change language to English? I have bought a few MediaTek devices directly from china, when I received the phone it had english on it already but when I reset the phones I would have to go into Settings and change chinese language back to english.
Motochopper should root your phone:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2252248
One thing with these phones is that the android version is not always what is shown in Settings > About phone. Try using this tool from the first post of this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2160490&styleid=18
make sure you enable USB debugging on your phone first and it will help tell which version of android you are really running. If kernel say 2.6.xx you are on GB 2.3, if it is 3.0.xx then you are on ICS and if it says 3.4.xx then you are JB. I bought a MT6575 that said android version 4.0 in settings, it said gingerbread 2.2 on the box (I know 2.2 is Froyo), then on bottom of box it said Froyo 2.2!
Thanks Klown80 -
I'm just into work now so I'll have to hook it up to my own PC and root when i get home later... i'm just in full on panic mode over this (its a time sensitive issue as she's due to be in hospital for an extended period and i want to get this right for her before then)
Regarding the language settings in the current/stock rom, it has english US selected and while a lot of the language is in english, pretty much ALL popup dialogs are in chinese and the browser is unusable (all chinese text based) so... hence the panic.
I was (foolishly) thinking it would just be a simple enough flash to CM or stock android and hey presto - full english ROM.
I hate it when i don't do my homework first.
So... you recommend the root first, check exact android version number and go from there?
Even if it turns out to be an older 2.1/2.2/whatever version, i'd be happy enough to get something stock and full english based on there if its possible.
As she's never had a smart phone, it will all seem super smooth and flashy to her anyway.
I have now rooted (i think..) however, the superuser app comes up with an error upon opening -
superuser binary (su) must be updated
and i now i'm kinda stuck.
I have downloaded and tired various versions of the play store and while the at first allow me to enter google accounts details, it always crashes after that.
Every time i open the play store app, it just closes again.
Any suggestions on where i might be going wrong?

Sounds like you need to update the binary then, if it allows you. If not then the root did not correctly root your device and we will have to go back a step and get that fixed first. As for Play Store, it usually takes more than just the Play.apk file to put Play Store on your device if it did not come with it stock. You also need (I am going off top of my head, I can give you exact names later) Google services framework.apk, Google login services.apk, Google Play services.apk. You need to have root to to this because you will need to move the vending.apk to /system folder and possibly change permissions on the apk before you install it. Once we can confirm root I can help you install a working Play Store if you like.

I've no idea how to update the binary so I guess i'm looking at a re-root.
I have had the usual issues of drivers not wanting to work (the Motochopper root process getting stuck at the daemon starting point) but I've manged to get the process to work twice so far.
(I've tried 4 different driver packages and they have all given the same results)
Could you possibly advise on how to update the binary file for superuser? I've just tried the root again and it skipped installing superuser as it was already found on the phone.. i haven't felt this noobllike in some time!

Try uninstalliong Superuser or SuperSU and try again. Su binary should ask you if you want to update when you first open SuperSU, if you have Superuser, then you will need to open the app and go into settings to update binary.

It was aksing to try and update etc but its chashed every time - I was thinking that the root hadn't worked properly or something... anyway, I've uninstalled Superuser and reinstalled from a newer apk file (v3.2) i downloaded.
Its now running ok. Now that superuser is working... whats next?

Ok, is it just Superuser and not SuperSU correct? Can you go into settings in Superuser and towards the bottom there should be an option to update su binary. If it is SuperSU it will ask to update on its own when you open it. either way make sure it lets you update binary. Once binary is updated download and install any app that asks for root acces, so we can see if superuser request pops up.
Once we have confirmed root we can move onto installing Play Store. To do this you will need to be able to install a file explorer like ES file explorer so we can install the files we need for working Play Store.

In the superuser settings, there isn't anything apparent for trying to update the su binary.
the list reads as follows:
Security
Apps List
Log (on)
Notifications (on)
Backup apps/preferences

HUGE thanks to Klown80 for the advice and patience!
For anyone else in a similar situation with an MTK6589 cheapo phone, and had issues with the Motochopper root method (the root getting stuck at 'daemon started successfully' etc etc.....
Klown80's chinese root tool works a treat. You will have a chinese superuser app that may be a little annoying (you might be able to swap it for SuperSU or something but I had issues doing that so i've kept the chinese one) but the root works perfectly and the instructions given by Klown80 in the linked thread are very easy to follow.
I still had some issues with getting google services installed so you may want to look for a play store installer workaround - I know there is a cheeky little chinese mod apk that can be used to get the play store working, but i can't post it here.
Should anyone come across this thread and know of a good, stock english rom that I might be able to use, please leave a comment!

Hey, Ok so i updated my Huawei u8650 to android 4.4.2 and something went wrong with my root. I can open superuser and it shows my binary and all that and it says im rooted but when i go to a app that requires root access like terminal emulator for example and i type in the command su. nothing happens it just goes to the next line. and i tried to mount my SD card partition in link2sd and it said that the script cant be created because its not allowed to su.
I thought it could be that superuser just wasn't allowing permissions but i open superuser and there's no apps, no logs or anything. I checked my settings and they're all fine and i even tried to use SuperSU instead and i still got the same thing. There's no prompt to allow access either. I don't know if the apps are just not trying to get root access or what? No app can get root permission and i need to get this fixed so i can fix some bugs on the rom. Please Help.
Thanks to all who attempt or do help. Ill be sure to hit thanks for u.

I thought it could be that superuser just wasn't allowing permissions but i open superuser and there's no apps, no logs or anything. I checked my settings and they're all fine and i even tried to use SuperSU instead and i still got the same thing. There's no prompt to allow access either. I don't know if the apps are just not trying to get root access or what? No app can get root permission and i need to get this fixed so i can fix some bugs on the rom. Please Help.
Thanks to all who attempt or do help. Ill be sure to hit thanks for u.

oh xD well i tried that and it still wont give anything permissions. when i try to go into root explorer it says " cannot obtain root" then it gives me a error saying "char* ttyname(int)(3) is not implemented on android". i couldn't find anything on google about the error either.

i rooted by SRSroot first then first got the error then i unrooted and re-rooted by using the kingo root method but still received the same error. they are both windows programs u can run for root on multiple devices. They use USB debugging to root then device reboots and bam your rooted.
i used those methods because i tried to just flash the binary files through cwm recovery and it never actually installed into system. The two methods above installed binary and rooted my device but i cant give root access to any apps including superuser or supersu.
If anyone can help me with this it would be appreciated because i hit a wall and don't know what to do. No apps can get root permissions and i cant fix my play store, WiFi, speakers or theme chooser until the root is properly working because the methods to fix those bugs need root to function. so please if anyone has knowledge or any idea why i have root but cant get access please help me out.

If there is a custom recovery available for your device I would recommend flashing that and then flashing the latest SuperSU.zip package in recovery. Part of the problem is the orginal Superuser (by ChainsDD) while excellent at the time is now extremely outdated and no longer really be maintained, as a result make sure you flash a Superuser package compatible with Android 4.4.2 such as the latest version of SuperSU.

Where can i find it at? I have recovery on here but i cant seem to find the file. At this point i'll try anything.
Ok so i found the SuperSU.zip v1.99 via another XDA Forum(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053) and i flashed it then rebooted. Now my device says there is no binary and i am not rooted. I tried reflashing but the .zip does nothing. what should i try next?
Rooted again with SRSroot and still cannot get root access.........please help me out.

You can try flashing Koush's Superuser in recovery, after please run root checker and tell me what is says it the status of your device.
I cant install root checker pro for some reason. I have the basic version installed, is that good enough?

OK so root checker says i have root access but i still cant access root permissions in apps. I took some screenshots of Link2sd, Terminal Emulator and root explorer so you can see what exactly is going on. I get some weird error in link2sd and root explorer that i have no clue what it is.
Anyone got any knowledge of this error?

try root after factory reset
every few days my magisk root always gets uninstalled and had to reboot to get it back, is there any fix for it?
this happens on any custom rom, fresh install
Probably because you are using incompatible magisk library and apk.

Apparently PlatStore is the culprit here. In the guise of checking for malignant apps, it removes Magisk. There is already information about this on XDA. I read it but am unable to locate it now. Disable Play Protect in PlayStore Menu and see if the issue is resolved.

It is sometimes enabled when PlayStore is updated. Otherwise it remains disabled, from my experience.
