Unlocked and Rooted E2312 but cannot get into bootloader - Sony Xperia M4 Aqua

Hi . Ive already unlocked my E2312 , and rooted with an app . But the problem is i cant seem to get into adb fastboot mode to flash the custom recovery
any ideas ?

Which app you use for rooting? There is good topic in forum for rooting and installing of TWRP (Recovery) - you need to follow all steps inside. Before this check that all adb drivers are successfully installed and working on PC.

Ive read what i can to open at least into adb mode but to no avail haha
I cant open into bootloader mode , no recovery mode even if i already unlocked it.
I tried rooting it with the one click app roots since i cant get into recovery mode, i used kingoapp . got my root , and tested some rooted apps like titanium backup and flashify . All seem to work normally
I tried using flashify to flash the recovery.img but as soon as i tried to pick the image inside my internal phone , the app got stuck . But besides that if i were to pick any other settings it would be just fine .
P.S M4 Aqua E2312

If you can't open adb then maybe drivers are not installed correctly on PC. Which operation system you use - if it's windows 10 then there is special procedure for installing. You need to disable drivers checking by windows to be able to install them - use Google to find how. After successfully installed drivers you need to approve connection with PC on your phone - message will appear on the screen of phone. After this you can install kernel and TWRP via adb.
This is the only way to root our phones. I also try Kingroot and one click root app at the beginning but it won't work properly.

Lineage Os 14.1(7.1.1) Problem With Rooting

I had recently upgrade my s3 using TWRP recovery from 4.4 to 7.1 lineage os
But I am facing problem with rooting.
I am not able to root my device from
1)TWRP recovery
2)Odin(CF Auto Root)
3)Kingroot(Android and PC )
I have installed TWRP properly
PLz give an idea to root my device
I have checked in developer option
That is ROOT ACCESS
Their is 2 Option only
1)Disable
2)Adb only
But I am not able to get root access any of this Or Adb only
Previously I tried with different ROM
Their is option of
1)disabled
2)Apps only
3)Adb only.
4)apps and Adb
But in this ROM I am not able to find suggest me any way to fix this
I installd 4 time s same ROM to get this root access but failed
Check below screenshot
In SuperSU application
No su binary installed
https://dropfile.to/bRO4jKc
https://dropfile.to/MMWxWrp
As far as I'm aware the rom should be pre rooted and all you'll need to do is install supersu from googleplay and then update the su binaries from within the supersu app.
Set it to option 4 (apps and abd) and go about installing supersu first as the app from googleplay and if no joy then as a flashable zip file.

Are you sure you flashed the correct addonsu???
As far as i remember, the s3 doesn't have 64x, flash the normal arm version (arm32x).
Bro i have tried to flash ARM AND ARM X86 but it says
update failed in twrp recovery
So i flashed with x64
It was done but not worked properly

It works, you will get an error in recovery, but when you boot, you will get root access normally, i don't why the error happens, but it's harmless anyway.
Root fix
I'm not sure if you have fixed it yet but just in case if this helps the way I got around this is by simply downloading the latest super su zip from the official site and manually flashing via twrp kinda sucks but it works the first boot took a little though so if you try this and it takes forever for your device to not just wait because it can take up to 15 min the first time. So basically as long as you have twrp you are rooted technically it's just based on the rom wether they chose to support it if not the zip always works but you need the app too.

S3 has arm32. So neither x86 not x64 would work. You should've flashed addonsu.zip for 32.

Help me root Cubot Rainbow

Hi everyone
I have been trying to root my cubot rainbow with no success, I have trier every way possible on which I will list.
King root - apk and PC version
Kingo root - apk and PC version
Iroot - apk and PC version
Towel root - didn't Evan let me open this app
Root genius - apk and PC version
Then I tried custom recovery, I got the tools of needrom and I got to it I did everything right I -
Unlocked my boot loader (I think) as once I accepted to unlock it there was no way to check if it actually was unlocked because everytime I did "fastboot OEM device-info" it returned something like "Failed(no controller)" < something like this anyway so with me not really knowing if IRA unlocked or not I went onto the next step.
With the scatter file and recovery.IMG to hand I opened up sp flash tools and then tried to flash the recovery. It then told me everything went okay and it was done. But when I boot to recovery it's still at stock.
I then tryed flashing with fastboot and same thing happens it tells me its all okay but its actually still stock
This leads to is my bootloader acc unlocked then? (I did try multiple times and uninstalled and reinstalled drivers)
So anyway is there any way to root my phone?
Instruction here http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=741031&st=1000#entry54800941
but on russian
Thank you for your reply I have had a look and from what I can understand it looks positive, but.... I can't find the instructions or translate them properly for the actually rooting
Here google translate of first post, bold below it is what you need:
1. Fully comply with the instructions for the firmware of custom recovery
2. Download and put in the root of the SD card archive SuperSU
3. Turn off the smartphone, hold down the + volume and power buttons simultaneously, select "Recovery Mode"
4. Select "Installation" and select the previously downloaded archive.
5. Reboot the phone.
After enabling, Root-rights and SuperSU will appear.

how to root doogee bl12000

Would anyone help me get root on doogee bl 12000? This is a version without a pro so this is a different topic than this one.
No kingoroot or framaroot programs work.
I have flashtoola and rom for this phone. I tried using adb to upload files with the 12000 pro doodge but there was always some error.
I also tried to upload files via flashtoola and recovery. However, without success.
Root Doogee BL12000
Hallo there. I'm trying to root my Bl12000. I've got a TWRP from twrp builder. It works, but whatever zip file I'm trying to install I always get "failed to mount data", invalid argument. The twrp also tells me, that there's bo OS installed, but there is. Phone is working fine after reboot. SuperSu can't be installed. Full wipe is not possible, also "failed to mount" and so on.
any help ?
Tia, Chris
I think it's the encryption. Any ideas how to remove it?
Installed twrp via fastboot and sp flash tool, but I can't boot phone into it. Searched dozens of sites, no success. Flashed the twrp again with sp flash tool and according to sp it was successful. I tried several ways to boot the phone into it afterwards, no luck
My goal is to root this phone only. I'm not very experienced so if anyone could please give me a hand here and tell me where or what I'm doing wrong, that'd would be great and much appreciated. Thanks.
Ok. If I flash the twrp with Sp flash tool and type "fastboot reboot" on the adb console, sending the command while I hold vol+ and power-, the phone boots into the twrp. Next time it will be gone, so I have to flash it again. Noticed that, done.
But all this is taking me nowhere, because the encryption still prevents me from installing any zip file or format a partition. Yuck ?
Root Bl12000
Since the SuperSu method took me nowhere I decided to try Magisk. And.......HURRAY !!!!!!.......it worked.....for a moment. Booted the patched boot.img and got superuser. But with the first reboot I got stuck in bootloop. Tried again, in case I missed something, but same ****.
IT WORKS !!!!! My mistake was to assume, that Magisk works the same way as rooting with SuperSu does. So after rooting with Magisk I tried to install root apps as I was used to, but Magisk does not work that way.
Well, it'll take me awhile to figure this out ?
Why does an app keep coming back on my phone after I have done factory reset?

How to Root Nuu R1 (R5001LA) ?

I just bought a Nuu R1 Rugged Phone. It has Oreo 8.1.0 on it.
It is an "unlocked" phone. But I don't know if unlocked refers to the phone carrier or to the boot loader. (I'm thinking phone carrier.)
The last I rooted my tablets was Android 5, which required using a custom script that a dev here wrote that temporarily ran CW via fast boot.
I would like to root my R1. I hear now that Magisk is the way to go. (Instead of SU.)
Most every Guide says that I have to have TWRP installed before installing Magisk. But there's no TWRP for the R1. And I am incapable of compiling my own.
I learned, from Nuu Tech Support, that I can get into the phone's Recovery mode with some hidden button pushes. Here's a screen shot:
My first question is, could I simply install Magisk by selecting "Update from SD card"?
If it's not that easy, then, second: I can also get to a fastboot screen. (Not shown here.) Could I install Magisk from ADB on my computer?
I suppose a third question: Is there a version of TWRP that's compatible with this phone? And if so, how do I find it? It would be nice to have a Nandroid backup.
I am willing to show various screens that come up from various button pushes if that would help a dev here.
More data for TWRP'ing
So, I see that one needs an image of the OEM ROM to compile TWRP. I found two sites on the web that claim to have the ROM. (Before the R1 was officially released.) Sounds sketchy. Will try to get an image from Tech Support.
In the meantime, I found that the bootloader can be unlocked (or allowed to be unlocked) via a setting under Developer Options.
I contacted Nuu Mobile Support and they were kind to send me the MediaTek USB drivers for the R1.
It was a two step process to get the driver installed for ADB. But now I have access to the R1 via ADB.
I read here on the forums that I can boot TWRP via fastboot, and not risk ruining/corrupting the R1's Recovery Partition.
Anyone know of a TWRP model version that's close enough to work on the R1? (I presume a TWRP for another MediaTek device might work?)
I would hate to try KingRoot to get root.
I found a website called unofficialtwrp.com. It has a TWRP for the MediaTek 6739, running Oreo 8.1, with 16/2 GB. That's exactly what the Nuu Mobile R1 has.
So, hopeful that this would allow me to root my R1, I tried it. (Short version: Didn't work.)
I already had ADB installed and could talk to my R1 via ADB.
But once the R1 had booted into fastboot mode via ADB, I got a message from fastbood devices that it was "waiting."
I learned that that message means that I didn't have drivers for fastboot.
I ended up installing a fresh version of Win8.1 and using the Windows' updater to find the needed drivers. I had to have the R1 plugged in to the USB in fastboot mode for this to work. After that, I could talk to the device via the fastboot command.
So I unlocked the boot loader (which wiped my data - not every Guide warns you about that) and I did "fastboot boot recovery.img."
I got the message that the recovery file had transferred. After abotu 15 seconds, the phone rebooted. But no TWRP.
Rats.
I didn't want to try the fastboot flash command in case this unoffiical twrp from an unofficial site bricked my phone. If I understand things correctly, booting in fastboot to the recovery.img should give me a temporary instance of TWRP.
Presumably, after copying Magisk into memory, I would be able to get root that way.

Whoa you have been busy you must've heard XDA helps those who help themselves.. :highfive:
I just dropped by to say, 1st rule of modding is taking a pristine stock backup..
For MTK devices, there is a tool called SP Flash Tools, a quick search will help you take a full backup using this tool.
Afterward, you can even try using SP Flash Tools to flash a Magisk patched boot image to your device for ROOT!
Hope this helps!
Thanks. I did see SP Flash Tools mentioned and I did take a look at it. While I've rooted before, I'm trying to get my head around a Scatter File.
Everything I've read so far - well, almost everything - says that I need TWRP to get Magisk installed. But if you think it can be done via SP Flash Tools, I'll start playing with it.
Root nuu r1
Did u ever manage to figure out how to do this & get TWRP to install? :fingers-crossed:
No, I haven't had time to play with rooting lately. I still would like to root it tho.

[TUTORIAL] Rooting and unbricking with latest firmware as of 2019

Doing this quick update because today, when trying to root my phone, bricked it several times and lost all app info
If you are using android 7.11, this guide works fine: https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-3-zoom/how-to/how-to-root-zenfone-3-zoom-ze553kl-t3622256
If on android 8, SuperSU will brick your phone. Use Magisk instead:
- enable usb debug mode on your phone
- unlock bootloader
- plug phone into your computer
on your pc
- Download fastboot and adb:
* Windows: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-windows.zip
* macos: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-darwin.zip
* linux: https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-linux.zip
- download the latest Magisk unlock script from https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases and copy it to a MicroSD or USB that you can attach to your phone. Look for Magisk, not Magisk Manager
- download twrp v 3.1.0-0-Z01H-20170408: https://mega.nz/#F!p90wgAaY!l1JbJilmAUEKTKWu43pT9w?E81jQTCD (this is from https://mega.nz/#F!p90wgAaY!l1JbJilmAUEKTKWu43pT9w, as described in the old root guide using twrp + supersu. It is supposed to be safe)
- `adb reboot bootloader`
- `fastboot flash recovery <path to twrp image downloaded>`
- `fastboot reboot`
Right now, you should probably backup your phone.
back on your phone:
- before booting, press volume up on the bootloader, there, select Recovery. Using fastboot to reboot into recovery might cause the stock recovery image to reflash
- if prompted to enable system modifications, allow it.
- If prompted to decrypt your data in TWRP, use the PIN you setup. If it doesn't work, I can't guarantee you won't brick our phone. Feeling brave enough? In case of brick keep reading, it is easy to restore your phone to stock Android 8 using official firmware.
- press install, choose the device attached to your phone that has Magisk-xxx.zip and select it
- flash the image and it should be OK
In case of brick or unsuccessful flash from SuperSU and without backup:
- Don't panic, like I did today
- download the latest firmware from Asus: https://www.asus.com/us/Phone/ZenFone-3-Zoom-ZE553KL/HelpDesk_BIOS/
- follow this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-3-zoom/how-to/manually-update-to-7-11-t3815703
- when the phone reboots, boot into recovery
- enable ADB sideload
- on your pc: `adb sideload <path to newest firmare>`
- now follow the root guide above before starting your phone
- ???
- profit
Note: commands using adb and fastboot assume you have put the contents from the downloaded platform tools in your PATH, else execute them from the directory in which they were extracted, for instance, on linux:
- `cd /home/$USER/Downloads`
- `unzip platform-tools-latest-linux.zip`
- `cd platform-tools`
- `./adb devices`
Bricked my phone.
in which step?
You should have access to fastboot, try the downgrade tutorial and install android 7 then imediately flash the latest image from ASUS

After the magisk install. It logged some "can't mount partition" errors, I tried to wipe, but do not worked.
It got stucked on Asus logo.
I did the unbrick tutorial.
This is strange. Magisk is supposed to patch the boot image and install its app (by the way, if you update magisk using the app, phone enters bootloop)
Anyway, I have encountered myself many problems when installing, but nothing like this. Bootloops and corruption message on bootloader yes, but I can't seem to recall anything about partitions not being mounted. If installing stock recovery image, boot image and system doesn't do the trick, in my experience it is either bad partitioning, although unlikely, because those procedures doesn't repartition anything, or bad internal storage.
But just to be sure, you should reflash stock 7.1 image (recovery, boot and system) with fastboot, enter stock recovery and wipe cache/factory reset. If your phone is physically healthy, this should work

I can't really help you there. This guide is supposed to work for those who are able to unlock bootloader using official asus tools. Never heard of unofficial unlock methods. It is possible that you have a hardware problem if you use those tools and they just don't work.

Have you used the latest official unlocking tool? I see there's a July 2019 version available.
If you are on an older version of Android (not Oreo) are you presently still getting OTA update prompts?
I tried this tool but no result.
is it possible to root ZE553KL without loosing user application's data? I have unrooted device, wanted to migrate telegram secret chats to new phone. it is doable but with rooted smartphone only. if rooting process is destructive I cannot migrate. if rooting is doable with preserving installed applications along with their data then there is a hope for successful migration.
does this method look promising or it is just fake method?
