I got my Honor 9 set up with the all in one guide (https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-9/how-to/one-guide-recovery-os-roms-t3661829). Except I could not flash supersu because in the data/data folder, I just got some weird named folders and could not find my file.
That tells me I am encrypted, right?
Now I entered TWRP and sideloaded supersu via adb - and I got root. So now my question is, am I encrypted AND got root running? Can you confirm this? I found no way inside Android on how to see if I am actually encrypted or not.
I didn't flash anything with fileencryption disabled in fstab etc...
I believe the latest version of EMUI encrypts your device by default to protect your personal data. You would probably decrypt your device yourself in the Settings > Security
But how can I check if I'm really encrypted or decrypted? What I can tell for sure is that I got root. But that would mean that the root guide can be updated to read supersu is working with data encrypted
Rommco05, I already know that I'm definitely rooted, but unsure on how to check the encryption status.
If I remeber good, there's an option in settings when you encrypt the phone (I don't remember where exactly)
This may help you
Ok so I sideloaded beta SuperSU 2.82 SR3 and I am rooted now. And I would say encrypted as if I browse /data/data through TWRP everything is just a bunch of random characters. Also phone is locked by fingerprint and password.
It can be correct

Could you please tell me what you did in detail after you unlocked your phone? At the moment i have the eu version but the b180 version with unlocked bootloader. Do you think it also works with the b180? And can you provide the links where you downloaded it, because there are like 10 Million different Versions of supersu and twrp. i bless you if you tell me
I soft bricked my H9 many times, so can you confirm me pls if :
- My H9 has the stock rom
- Bootloader unlocked and frp unlocked
- TWRP is installed but i see sdcard with encrypted names
If i used "adb sideload SuperSU-v2.82-201705271822.zip" in TWRP, i will have root and i loose nothing in the phone?
Thnaks for answer
i need this information too.

Hello folks,
I'm at a loss currently.
I had rooted my stock .314 FW and installed XZDualRecovery.
All worked flawlessly, installing Busybox, using Titanium Backup, Adaway etc.
Now suddenly I discovered that I'm not able to remount /system read-write anymore! Root seems to work absolutely normal otherwise, it's just that if I try to remount (via ES File Explorer or manual terminal command), either nothing happens (ES File Explorer) or I get a "Permission denied" (terminal).
I absolutely don't have any idea what could be the cause of this!
And not being able to update the hosts file or doing any alterations of system files of course is a problem!
I had several rooted devices and never encountered this issue!
Any ideas??

I once had such a problem on my phone (SGS4), I was running CM with SuperUser.
Switching to SuperSU helped me back then, SU seemingly did not work correctly.
I guess you are using SuperSU on your stock ROM, so this is no option. But still I'd still assume that your problems are directly SuperSU-related...
Yes, I'm using SuperSu (current version: 2.01).
It's not possible to update to version 2.02.
EDIT!
Obviously the recovery is broken also! It's not possible to boot into recovery!
How do I repair that (and how can it be that the recovery is gone in the first place??)? Simply remove the files which are listed in the XZDualRecovery thread's uninstall instructions, then install normally?

Sorry, but I do not have any experience with the DualRecovery. I can only state that I do not have such issues with the recovery I use.
So perhaps your problems go away if you use the same one - I think this could be worth a try...
The problem, and that is one reason why I ask, is that recovery and system RW HAD worked! Flawlessly!
But now no more!
How can that be?
You don't need to answer anymore. I uninstalled Dual Recovery, then tried to install CWM. After that Android didn't start at all (Bootloop). Fed up, I wiped and installed from scratch
You probably just needed to run easy root again. I have to run it twice every time. Then I install the recovery from in Windows using the tool provided, then I flash the superuser update. Zip from the chainfire website. Probably overkill, but it's worked for me about 10 times on this device. Remember to turn off firewall and antivirus and run the installers as admin in Windows.
For easy updating by OTA/Factory Images and keeping root, try out Chainfire's Flashfire App see this post.
On 6.0.1 - Instructions for ElementalX method!
Update your device first to latest available image (Flashing Factory images or by OTA)
Flash latest TWRP (linked below) or Temporally Boot it.
From TWRP, Install Systemless SuperSU
Then from in TWRP, Install ElementalX kernel.
If prompted don't allow TWRP to install system supersu.
Reboot
Note: If your using systems-less method and have previously rooted with system, you will need to re-flash stock boot & system first!
Note: Nexus 9 twrp-3.0.2-0-flounder now available!
SuperSU 2.76 now available.
You may need to reflash(or update) ElemetalX kernel again after flashing latest SuperSU.
Note: ElemetalX kernel is not required to successfully root your device, optional extra.
ElementalX Kernel Update to ElementalX-N9-4.15 for 6.0.1.

it's not working on Nexus 9. When you log into TWRP, the device asks for a damn password I don't even know. if you press Cancel, you would see an empty internal storage

Same problem here, had to revert back to LMY48M.
Same here. The only other posts I found on this say to use "default_password" but doesnt work for me either.
My password is a PIN so its not the pattern issue either.
For TWRP I believe I just click cancel when request for password!
Then I mounted a USB stick in TWRP and flashed the files from that!
Anyone have any luck using titanium backup and usb stick? I can't get TiBu to find it. Otherwise everything is fine. Flashed 6.0, then TWRP, ElementalX and SuperSu.

Haven't used titanium yet since I updated!
For USB: -
The New OTG feature of M is effecting "StickMount" app (probably needs to be updated).
Edit: Stickmount has now been updated and works on Marshmallow
"ES File Explorer" is able to mount usb sticks for copying files and media from and to USB!

And you can stop calling it m now. It's marshmallow. "M" was the name of a developer preview of an unnamed version of Android. Is that what you're trying to root? Lol. Not likely. Marshmallow it is!

The good news is Chainfire(+New Team) or working on another method to root!

Not **quite** working. Have installed TWRP 2.8.7.0, Supersu beta 2.51 and ElementalX 4.01 kernel; was able to install adbd insecure, so adb goes root and I can su from shell there.
Still when booting into recovery, TWRP asks for password, and if I cancel cannot mount anything but cache. Supersu seems to grant SOME permissions but for example I cannot modify default.prop (neither from the device nor via adb - the latter says about read only file system).

Use chainfire's method to root!
TWRP needs to be update. or follow these instructions to no-forceencrypt your device.

ElementalX Kernel method was the old way to root and didn't properly root encrypted devices, Adblockers such as "AdFree" couldn't write the hosts files.

I use Chainfire's method in EX 4.01
EX always rooted "properly"
There was no system write on the initial release. But encryption was always handled properly. Please dont spread misinformation
A couple of days ago I flashed Lineageos 16 onto my Pocophone F1 with the opengapps package (MTG was giving problems).
Now the main issue I have is that my banking apps, Netflix and 1 or 2 other apps won't work because it says the device is rooted. This is actually incorrect , just the bootloader is unlocked. But I realise this is the new security system of Android.
However, here are the problems that I found while investigating for a solution to the root problem:
1. Trust security system says, "This build was signed with public keys". How to I get a build with a private key? I have never compiled my own build.
2. TWRP 3.2.3 is installed, but the pin/pattern/no password etc does not allow twrp to decrypt the phone. I can use the "cancel" option to get to the menu but then twrp has limitations, see point 3.
3. I am trying to install Magisk on the phone to see if that is a solution for the non-working apps. But after I have transferred the zip file onto /sdcard I cannot see it it when I am in recovery. I guess because of the decrypt issue in point 2.
I have tried to Google for solutions to these issues, but no answers see to be clear as to what the solution is.
So can somebody advise what my best course of action is to get the apps complaining about root to work? Back to the stock android with all the bloatware?
Thanks a million in advance to the person who can help with this.
After losing all the data of my internal storage twice, I am searching for a final solution of this disaster.
If I let the phone encrypt everything, am I facing the problem of accessing it through twrp again?
Sometimes I just forget to install the decryption patch after each update.
Often I saw twrp asking me for a pattern, after an unwanted encryption. I couldn't enter a code like 6363 by swiping. --> data lost!
Any advice would be really appreciated.

Fastboot and install the twrp with decryption support
Just rename it to recovery.zip before install
No need for passwords in twrp
FDE is optional when using this

I already had installed twrp with encryption support.
After flashing havoc rom the system started encrypting my internal storage.
TWRP was asking for encryption password, but there was none, because it was a clean flash.
The first time my system got encrypted ( maybe even deleted) was after upgrading to vendor / firmware v10.

You need to flash Force encryption disabler zip every time you upgrade ROMs because on Pie encryption gets enabled on boot. Even if you decrypt using TWRP, if you flash another ROM it will still encrypt on boot if you don't flash FED.zip. I learned this the hard way too

Sorry, but I don't get it.
At its very first boot, LOS encrypted my unencrypted phone without asking me for the key.
So I think it just chose a key at random (or maybe even an hardcoded one: who knows?).
How can this even work with (any) update?
What if I need to reboot my device? Will it reboot? (I don't dare to even test it).
I also run LOS on another phone (OP3T) which has asked me the encryption key when I chose to encrypt it.
So I see two main oddities with this phone:
LOS is encrypting MY OWN phone without asking me permission to do so and
LOS is failing to tell me which encryption key it's using, thus acting more like a bitlocker than as a security feature.
And I need a way to chose my very own encryption key, anyway. How to?

Its not LOS its the vendor/firmware flashed, everytime you put a new/vendor firmwar it "force encrypts" your phone on first boot. So used "disable force encryption" if you dont want it. Its just how it is so stop whining about "final solutions" for a disaster. Theres no disaster spen 10$ on an sd card and move your pictures or whatever there even while encrypted you can (keep it portable) then theres no problem.

I surely haven't fully understood this encryption thing.
Mainly because on one phone, the OP3T, it was done by the OS itself upon my request with my encryption key.
While on another one, the POCO F1, is being done by something else, the so called "vendor software".
I was willing to have encryption on the POCO F1, it looks like I cannot have it. Bare truth.
With LOS v16 on an OP3T, if I reboot to TWRP recovery (or system) and don't provide the key I defined myself, I won't get access to the storage.
With LOS v16 on a POCO, I can reboot to TWRP recovery (or system) and have the storage decrypted by the " vendor software" without providing any key.
So, to my very limited understanding at least, POCO F1 doesn't have encryption unless you are trying to access the storage from the bootloader or from a device which has been turned off!
Or am I missing something very important?
P.S.
I don't see how a uSD card would save me. Can I enable user controlled encryption on an uSD?

you can try kingo root but I have to warn you that you verify that the website you download from is legit and not a a phishing website Lord of the root apk is not infact root apk but malware.
if you are on anything which is Android 6 plus chances that this APK will not root your phone because of security enhancements in that case your only choice is to to find a TWRP recovery for your phone Google TWRP and your phone name number follow instructions to flash it most of the time putting your phone in fastboot and flashing the image does the job and after that you can install magisk which will root your phone .With the option magisk hide enable you can fool other apps that your phone is not rooted or you can disable the superuser or root completely within magisk manager and use as non rooted phone.

When you plug the phone / tablet to a computer you need to pull down from the top and look for Android System and something to do with USB / click this and choose Media Device or file transfer the PC should reconnect and make a sound. Now you should see all the folders in Internal storage and External storage (if you have a sdcard in the device)
make a folder on your pc and copy everything from the device to your pc
I personally use Google photos to keep those backed up and available on all my devices
Amazon Photos works just as well or you can even use both

Yeah I'll be using Google Photos from now on, it's just a bummer since I lost some pics I really cared about
Anyway, I've tried to copy, but I get an Unspecified Error
I don't understand
Edit: Ok, apparently the only folders I cannot copy are the Whatsapp and Android folders. I think I can just ignore them, since all the cached pics I want to recover are stored in the CloudDrive folder.
So, back to the root.
Is Kingo REALLY that malicious? I don't wanna risk any permanent damage on my phone (Android version 5.1)
And about TWRP: I got the app installed, but my device (CUN-L01) is not listed
kingo is not open source and when it and roots your phone it install some other bloatware app as well .As long as it's capable of rooting your phone go ahead and use it but make sure you to get rid of it after the diskdigger work is over
so yes something you may want to try
backup all your data photos call logs SMS etc , install kingo root app and get root { , if you want to keep permanent root then and at this stage you can download and install TWRP directly as a rooted user without going through the long drawn procedure of fast booting & once you have TWRP installed then replace your kingo app with your favourite root app and throw out kingo }
, do your diskdigger work and then un install kingo root app
there is a desktop and Android version both . the desktop version is supposed to be more powerful make sure you uninstall all the apps once your job is over also make sure that you are downloading the correct kingoapp because there are some of other 'viral' versions , that may install undesirable bloatware but will not roat
diskdigger alternative is phone paw you may want to try that as well I don't think that needs root it's PC based photo recovery software

If you put it that way, Kingo looks less meancing.
I'm not interested in a constantly rooted phone, just need it temporarily, so...
Sorry if I ask, but any of you have a reliable download link for Kingo? I really have no idea where should I look for a "safe" version.
Also, what do you mean by "make sure you uninstall all the apps once your job is over" ? Uninstalling Kingo is not enough?
there is a king root and there is the kingo root and I have not used both this crapwares for quite a long time I used them when I was on 4.x and rather new to this Android cynogen factory. At that time TWRP was a bit new and not every phone had a TWRP.
so I think I probably referred to kingroot and not kingo root
https://kingrootapp.net/
don't recollect but either or both of these apps also install some other bloatware apps that pretended to save your battery and show you how faster phone is charging ...whatever
uninstall all the apps that were installed after your 'root work' is over

Also, I keep reading awful things about this root method. Like it sends your email to some shady companies and such. I'm not even sure it will work with my phone, it may brick it.
So, I'll stick with TWRP

First step unlock the bootload, on Huawei It's a pay service, check eBay or
https://www.dc-unlocker.com/how-to-read-huawei-bootloader-unlock-code
Second step you need a patched boot.img made with magisk. Most times you can get the stock boot.img from an OTA update.zip
Copy it to the phone and use magisk manager to install (patch) the stock file.
Now you copy the patched file to your PC fastboot folder.
Third and last step is to fastboot flash the patched boot img
The command is
fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
Reboot and you have a rooted device

Here is how to do it
First things first, never use one click root apps! they install spyware and stuff, and they achieve root access in your phone by using vulnerabilities. The proper way to root it is the one by which you unlock the bootloader and flash a custom recovery like twrp, I found a post here https://techelucid.com/root-huawei-y5-ii/ ,follow it and try to use magisk instead of supersu, its more updated and can hide your root access, you can use supersu it work too but some apps won't work with root access enabled, magisk can hide this. Both can give you root access

well it sounded like this person just wanted a one shot one time root and out method which is why I suggested King root if it works. afterwards all that crapwhere can be deleted.
the other option was also mentioned that is TWRP and magisk .bootloader unlocking need not always be paid service lot of things allowed here on how to unlock bootloader but first we have to make sure if his bootloader is locked or unlocked.
turn on developer settings and oem unlock switch if that is present that mean the bootloader is unlocked and in fact this step of buying a service to unlock bootloader is redundant
I was trying to keep the thread as simple as possible without going into the depth of all the under the hood methods but sound like after all ,all the mechanics have opened up the hood and now we are getting to the engine
whatever works .....it sounds like he's getting good help so wish him good luck

Hi
I'm trying to use DiskDigger in order to retrieve some deleted pictures, but I need to root my phone in order to retrieve the original files.
I've been searching for guides, but I'm too afraid of doing something stupid and brick my phone.
I have a Huawei CUN-L01
Can somebody help me out?
