Hello guys, im facing this problem and maybe u all can help me,
actually i got motorola one (not power) and i noticed this function multi-user with up to 5 users isollated. so i wanna increase this number of accounts up to 10, i know its possible, but can i do it without rooting?
or if only rooting is possible, is there a way to unroot 100%? because some apps detect im rooting.
can i acess "build.pro" and edit it without rooting too?
i also own a samsung j7 prime and followed tutorial below and worked very well with a little downsides, its detectable by some apps including banks apps
Any help is welcome
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j7/how-to/multi-user-samsung-galaxy-j7-j5-t3217939
Step 1. Open FileExplorer (Es file explorer, preferable)
Step 2. Go to "Device"
.
Search for "build.prop"
Edit and add the below string at the end of the editor and save and reboot !
fw.max_users=10
fw.show_multiuserui=1
You'll need root to edit build.prop.

Yes you need root to find build.prop. But you can extract build prop using adb pull location in twrp and edit it on PC, then reinstall firmware *DONT UNROOT VIA MAGISK ALMOST HARDBRICKED MY MOTO ONE* when your done reinstalling firmware then use adb push location build.prop

With this method root is needed? is there any tutorial so i can follow your instruction and put it to work? i know how to use adb and insert commands at cmd.
Baseband: M8953_16.15.02.19R DEEN_LATAMDSDS_CUST
Product/Variant: DEEN XT1941-3 64GB PVT1
i found this firmware https://www.getdroidtips.com/motorola-one-android-pie-update/ , this one is the correct for my mobile. can i edit this rom (build.prop) and flash it to work with above 5 users? what you think?
with my searchs i found the pull push command, https://www.**********.com/push-pull-files-android-using-adb-commands/
so basically, run adb look for the build.prop and pull it to adb folder, edit the file into pc to 10 users (fw.max_users=10) save, adb push command and done, reboot? thats right ?

I've got a cheap Chinese tablet (WM8850-MID) running Android 4.0.3 based on WonderMedia 8850 processor.
It's not rooted.
Here's what i found:
/system/xbin/su is present:
-rwsr-xr-x 1 0 0 68528 May 14 11:07 su
But I can't run su in a terminal:
su uid 10064 not allowed to su
Using adb.exe I have the same problem with uid 2000.
There is a script /system/etc/init.sh which is called a boot time, but If I modify and push it via adb it won't execute (lost execute permission)
adb reboot-bootloader does reboot the device, but it does not stay in bootloader mode and just go straight to Android.
I'm not sure where to go from here. Is there a way to root that device ?
Try ./adb root to run as root.
Use oneclickroot.

I forgot to mention "adb root" says I'm already root.
If I copy files with adb push, the owner is root, but If I use "adb shell" I'm user uid 2000.
This is a new tablet, but I'll give oneclick a try anyway. Thanks.
I've just tried SuperOneClick 2.3.1.0. It says it's already rooted because it can find /system/xbin/su, but I continued anyway. It can copy busybox (temp) but cannot change the permissions and it stops there.
Try resetting your tablet and if the su binary is stil there remove it. After resetting retry with superoneclick.

Thanks, but how do I delete it since I don't have the permissions? In case it's possible, is it safe to remove the su binary? I have no way to recover my firmware...
Use ./adb root to remove it because you will be root.After removing it reset your tablet to factory settings. It is safe because the su binary is not part of the os.
Then try rooting with oneclickroot.
Hope it works for you.
i also bought wm8850 tablet in china..can you teach me how to root in detailed its my first android device....i dont understand the other terms u are using....
Hi jallaine12gil,
I think that you should first try to root with oneclickroot. Post if it worked or not. Oneclickroot is a rooting program for android devices.
download the firmware. then find the android4.0.tgz file open it with 7zip, add the su file to system/bin folder and system/xbin manually.... then put the superuser.apk in the system/app folder then save changes.... then flash firmware from sdcard
if camera is in the top centre of the wm8850 tablet: in txt file
if camera is in top right of the wm8850 tablet: in txt file
download the firmware. then find the android4.0.tgz file open it with 7zip, add the su file to system/bin folder and system/xbin manually.... then put the superuser.apk in the system/app folder then save changes.... then flash firmware from sdcard

How to get adb working on the wm8850?
Hi, sorry to interject with something semi-unrelated, but how did you guys get adb working with the wm8850? I've added the vendor id to the ~/.android/adb_usb.ini on mac, but adb still can't find the device. I used 0x0ea0, is this what you guys used?
Any advice would be great!

Sorry, how do you root??
My phone lost his Imei after restoring to factory settings. I have root, and I was trying to do it because I have root so unrooted&wipe but after wipe my imei lost again, (once happened again, that time i sent it to service and came in good condition) but I found the EFS backup ing and editing with a hex editor will set things to order but even I have root and giving permissions to any program wont see SU.
Galaxy Toolbox prog. can't find any EFS and I could not be able to edit it. There is no Galaxytoolbox folder (or YGSxyz folder) in sdcard. And if I look with root explorers, there is no things in efs folder.
I mean to use this method but I do not have anything in my efs folder.
Any Ideas?

My device is rooted and its giving permission to applications but applications can't read the given SU permission. Somehow weird situation, oh by the way my phone could not connect to wifi on by own, i have to enter values of my wifis parimeters of ip gateway etc. and I could not update SU binary.

You don't have to be a professional, like everybody can do this. Just flash this through cwm and you have stock kernel again.

Thanks for posting with this much helpful contains. But my device can not gain root acces even have the app superuser in main menu. I couldnt figure out why, while I'm trying to update binary it couldn't gain root access even given permission to superuser inself. Tried to install SuperSU from chainfire but it does not install it. even with ccw mod installer.

setting.apk is part of system, you can't delete it(except you rooted), and you can't install it like other normal apk.
i suggest you to back to your stock rom, and delete anything if you don't know what's the function.
Quick workaround, look for adb (android debug bridge) on google.
Basically, you need to extract the settings.apk from another rom/firmware of the same version as yours and use adb shell to push it to system/app adress with rw-r-r permissions. (Alternatively, use a root explorer to put it there).
The other solution is to flash a stock firmware with the corresponding flash tool.
Good luck
DISCLAIMER : You attempt the following at your own risk !
I'm not responsible if your phone blows up, bricks, you travel back in time or go bald or something!
Background :
I have the MT2-L05 Mate 2 from China.
When I received my Mate 2 last Thursday, the phone was on 4.2.2
After much hunting and downloading and flashing of ROMS, I managed to finally update to 4.4.2 KitKat.
Great ! I was happy. But I didn't have root access.
After trying and failing to use the various bootloader unlock tools on these forums, I Emailed Huawei, and politely asked them if I could have the 16 digit code for my Mate 2. An hour later an Email arrived with my bootloader unlock code, so I fastbooted, used the code and unlocked the Bootloader.....Cool ! Thanks Huawei, great customer service.
I then went to root my phone, and here the problems started. I tried at least 20 different Root tools, both via phone and over the pc, but no joy.
Nothing worked ! Vroot, Kingoroot, Towelroot, srs root, root genius 1.8.7, etc they all failed.
I was at the point of giving up, when I found a Chinese version of rootgenius 2.0.1.3......I ran it via pc........and Success ! I was finally rooted.
Supersu was installed, the binaries updated fine and all was good with the world. I tried wakelock detector first ( Yeah, I know, I REALLY need more battery life from the Mate 2 ! ), and Supersu asked for permission and it worked no problem.
I then tried to install adaway, and then I ran into problems, I was unable to edit my hosts file....ummm...odd. OK, then I tried to install xposed......Impossible to install.
I then read on these forums to edit build.prop and change a simple setting to get xposed running.......ok, no problem, yet when I edited my build.prop file, it would NEVER EVER save the edits. Weird? what's going on?.......after much searching and much reading I finally found the problem.................
Root Genius 2.0.1.3 :
http://www.shuame.com/root/
The Problem :
The 4.4.2 update adds a file to your System folder called :
set_immutable.list
this file contains :
Code:
/system/bin
/system/build.prop
/system/etc
/system/fonts
/system/framework
/system/isp.bin
/system/lib
/system/ons.bin
/system/usr
/system/vendor
/system/xbin
/system/app/HwLauncher6.apk
/system/app/HwLauncher6.odex
/system/app/systemUI.apk
/system/app/systemUI.odex
Any location listed above is IMPOSSIBE to mount as rw. Every file explorer or emulator you try will tell you it is rw, but it's not.
It's locked down completely...................and it's REALLY annoying.
This is why I could never edit my build.prop or Install Adaway etc..................
But I found a solution...... ( I think ! )..........
The Solution :
I spent the afternoon at work using google translate to find a fix for my problem and found a post from a guy called :
**** wire His Royal Highness Prince czx ( I cannot post the first 4 letters as it will probably be banned....It must be a Google translate error but it made me laugh ! )
His guide never worked for me until I made a few edits and added STEP 4. Then I got it to work.
The Solution :
1, First Root your Phone ( I suggest trying Root Genius 2.0.1.3 from my first post )
2, install busybox (I suggest BusyBox ( Stericson ) as I couldn't get this to work with the Jrummy BusyBox installer )
3, Install Rom Toolbox Pro ( I know it's payware and I tried other programs, but this is the only one that worked for me. I had already purchased ages ago. The free version may contain the following tools too, but I genuinely don't know )
4, open Scripter from Rom Toolbox pro and click " Mount System R/W "
5, open Terminal Emulator from Rom Toolbox Pro
Type: su then press enter
Type: mount -o rw, remount / system then press enter
Type: cd system then press enter
Type: chattr -R -i * then press enter
(On step 5 there is a space between remount forward slash and system and also between i and *)
6, Leave Terminal Emulator open, Hit your Home Button
7, then delete the file :system / set_immutable.list with Root Explorer. Other File managers with root access may work, I haven't tried
If you can not delete it, the above steps haven't worked, I can only suggest you try from step 4 after rebooting your phone.
If you are successful and manage to delete the set_immutable.list file then reboot your phone.
Job Done !
You now have full Root Access.
This has been tested by myself on my MT2-L05, it should work on ALL China Variants and presumably on the US MT2-L03 if this file is included in a 4.4.2 update, but I obviously cannot guarantee this.
I'm also curious as to whether anyone thinks this has left my phone open to exploits by the deleting this file....? Remember, if I have done something stupid by doing this, then so will you if you follow the above!
All I know is Xposed has installed perfectly after finally being able to edit my build.prop file and Adaway is running like a charm.
Feedback very welcome.

I followed your guide, the part I bolded didn't seem to work for me, but after a few attempts I just kept going with the rest of the guide and I was still able to delete the file at the end of the day Thank you so much! I always felt like the root I had with 4.2 was kind of a pseudo root since I was limited by my root access, this is exactly what I needed!
I manage to get root and delete that file. Hooray and thanks! But after editing the build.prop, I still can't get xposed to install. I keep getting this error on the install screen.

Install xposed 2.5.1, it's the safest option for now and you will not get this error message.
I haven't tried too many xposed apps yet, but wanam works if you want circle battery etc
Experimental features of Greenify work too.
Gravity box Kitkat will not run properly for me.. I suggest you do not attempt to install it at the moment.
Let me know if you find anymore cool xposed modules to try!

Install xposed 2.5.1, it's the safest option for now and you will not get this error message.
Cool xposed apps for 2.5.1 :
wanam kit : adds circle battery, expanded notifications, 4-way reboot menu etc etc
Android L Navbar : adds Android L navbar and Android L shapes Navbar
Both work flawlessly for me and have NEVER crashed once.
Hi, I followed your steps but in the step 5, when i type this : mount -o rw, remount / system it doesnt work.

DISCLAIMER : You attempt the following at your own risk !
Nothing worked ! Vroot, Kingoroot, Towelroot, srs root, root genius 1.8.7, etc they all failed.
I was at the point of giving up, when I found a Chinese version of rootgenius 2.0.1.3......I ran it via pc........and Success ! I was finally rooted.
Supersu was installed, the binaries updated fine
I then tried to install adaway, and then I ran into problems, I was unable to edit my hosts file....ummm...odd. OK, then I tried to install xposed......Impossible to install.

I then read on these forums to edit build.prop and change a simple setting to get xposed running.......ok, no problem, yet when I edited my build.prop file, it would NEVER EVER save the edits. Weird? what's going on?.......after much searching and much reading I finally found the problem.................
/QUOTE]
How was SU installed if you had no rw privs?
vroot, kingroot, kingoroot, kinguser, srs root and rootgenius were created for a select few... it was a side effect of massive social engineering via the internet that they'd leak to so many others who weren't the target.

I'm guessing because I could write rw to system folder. Set-immutable-list blocks folders inside system folder, not the basic system folder itself. ie/ system/xbin or system/etc they are blocked. /system on its own isn't.

yes, and the instructions worked great.
i made a script with it in totalrom and set it to load on boot along with total rom itself to keep a strangle hold on the permissions.

Can you please upload the script you made?
You'll make things easy for me, 'cause commands in terminal don't seem to work in my case.
Thank's !
This thread is now defunct. I have moved to iPhone. Sorry about this.
Take care everybody.

Appreciate this! If I'm already unlocked, is it possible to remove the -w in the flash-all script before running for a rooted install without wiping user data?

I would leave it as is, but if you want to try it, go ahead (might brick).
Hi ! Thanks for it.
Just a question After flash the Rom when the phone reboot before copy magisk manager can restore my Google backup ?
And how I do when they had an update ?
Thanks

Yes that should be fine. Just restore normally. But don't forget magisk otherwise it won't have proper root.
Might be a silly question, but, does this stock image work with Google Fi?
Also, a little confused with some of the directions...
In step 1 it says "Download the appropriate rar package for your system and install."
Does this mean download my stock image from Google and install it with Magisk, or... ?
In step 9 it says, " Once in fastboot, and the bootloader, run "fastboot devices" from the "BRAMBLE" folder. "
Does this mean to run "fastboot devices" as a command inside the command prompt from the "BRAMBLE" folder or to open one of the tools inside the platform tools folder?
Also, in step 11, where do I find the "appropriate flash-all command on your operating system"?
These are just a bit confusing to me. Don't want to brick my phone, so any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Download the WinRAR package in the mega.nz folder for your OS.
Both, platform tools should be in that BRAMBLE folder. Example fastboot.exe should be in BRAMBLE.
You will find this in your BRAMBLE folder when you properly extract platform tools and the .rar into the BRAMBLE folder.

It's just stock with root, so if the Pixel 4a 5g works normally it will too.

You're not very detailed and you didn't answer the questions. I'll pass on this method. Thanks

So, will update delete the magisk app? Or what do you mean when write "don't forget magisk"?

I mean don't forget to install it and assure you have proper root after.
Does this one works with Google pay. My rooted build of RD1A.200810.022.A4 doesn't pass the safety check on magisk manager. Thank you

MAGISK MODULE ❯ Universal SafetyNet Fix 1.1.0
Thanks for this! FYI for anyone curious the newest Magisk 8.07 does work, you don't need to use the linked file.

Yes feel free to do this. The APK that is linked works fine as well and will update itself with your permission.

Hey everybody,
Here is the latest Android 11 January 2021 update rooted (I will keep it updated). It's all clean. It is the Google stock system image with root applied (comes with GAPPS). You can cleanly flash your device with this as long as your fastboot (bootloader) is working.
Download LINK:
File folder on MEGA
mega.nz
Steps:
1) Download the appropriate rar package for your system and install.
2) Download the appropriate platform-tools package for your operating system (this contains ADB and Fastboot) and extract it in a folder we'll call "BRAMBLE" (we will use this folder for the install).
3) Download the bramble-rq1a.210105.003.rar file (this is the stock rom). Extract it to the "BRAMBLE" folder. You will want to see all the files (ie. the flash-all.sh) all in the folder the same folder that contains the ADB and Fastboot tools.
4) Download MagiskManager-v8.0.4.apk, this will be used after the install and installed on the device.
5) Enable USB debugging and OEM unlocking (the bootloader unlock) in developer options (smash on build a bunch of times in a row real fast to enable developer options in about phone).
7) Navigate to the "BRAMBLE" folder with a terminal or command prompt (depending on your operating system) and run "adb devices" with root or administrator access in your terminal or command prompt on your computer (respectively there). Allow the USB debugging to connect to your computer forever on your phone, something should pop up. It should appear in the terminal or command prompt. If not you need to accept USB debugging on your phone (forever).
8) Put in the command "adb reboot bootloader" once your device appears.
9) Once in fastboot, and the bootloader, run "fastboot devices" from the "BRAMBLE" folder. This should return your device. If not, something is wrong and restart. Another way of reaching fastboot is restarting your phone and holding VOLUME DOWN.
10) Make sure your device is unlocked, run "fastboot flashing unlock".
11) In the "BRAMBLE" folder, run the appropriate flash-all command on your operating system. This will take a while and completely reflash the system with the Stock ROM with root. You will see the progress as it appears.
12) Once it's done, your phone will reboot. Just wait for it to start up and do as you normally would on a new flash.
13) Move the MagiskManager-v8.0.4.apk onto the phone, and install it. It will confirm you have partial root and ask you to apply something more and reboot. Do so.
14) When rebooted, your phone will be fully flashed and rooted. Feel free to download a root verification app, I recommend this one. It should be working fine. Grant root permission forever to it.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask. You can install the ElementalX kernel on this rom for Pixel 4a 5g. Download this. It's a great kernel tool and it will help you with full root access download and install the kernel. It's the kernel I'm using.

Magnetox

i could not install magisk, the 13th step in your guide might not be complete.
i managed to root, and got to pass safety net, and google pay working.
i have to move the boot.img from the zip file included in the package you provided, move it to internal storage, patch it in magisk manager.
then i moved the patched boot.img to my pc, did adb reboot bootloader, then fastboot flash [patched boot.img] and then only i was fully rooted.
i also flash the safetynet-fix-v1.1.1.zip module in magisk to pass satefynet.
hope it could help out, i digged all night yesterday to get this done lol.
