Good morning guys,
Im not even sure where to start because im just getting into programming. I just tried to root my HTC rezound last night, so I followed the tutorial to the letter. Everything went very well by all accounts, except after unlocking bootloader, pda net, installed superuser, but yet when I try to verify that I have root access the phone does not recognise the root. Does anyone have any ideas why this could be? Ill be more than happy to post whatever information you might need in helping me figure this little problem out.
Thanks in advance!

I'm not sure about a stock Rom, but I did a custom recovery and haven't touched s-on or s-off yet. I did unlock the bootloader and pda net using the walkthrough found at the htcdev.com /bootloader site. I don't know if I just need to find another walkthrough to finish the rooting process or if I'm way off here. The phone itself still works as good as ever so at least I didn't brick it. I feel like I'm close or at least on the right track.

sorry have been working some crazy hours. Seeing as Im real new at this, I tried the command
fastboot reboot bootloader
it rebooted in bootloader, then I typed fastboot flash all the files in your zip and none wanted to flash for me?
Can you break it down noob style for me please?

pull your battery and re insert it.
hold vol down button and power until you get the white bootloader screen
The top should say unlocked in pink
if you have a custom recovery it will also say tampered in pink
since you are new and not sure, to continue we need to verify this
what does it say?

Doesnt matter what recovery. Just as long as it is a custom recovery.
@ajstipcak
Download/Flash this in recovery NOT FASTBOOT
http://download.chainfire.eu/333/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.34.zip
Then install Busybox using this app
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=stericson.busybox&hl=en
Inside the app choose /system/bin at the top checkmark replace all symlinks choose install then choose smart install.

Help me anyone.
Today i wanted to update twrp on my z2
When rebooting the twrp-light (green) went on, i tried to access it, but it skipped.
Then i tried to flash a CWM-recovery to reflash and restore the backup.
Now i cannot acces that recovery either. It skips, goes to boot-logo and bootloop.
Hope anyone has a clue what happends and can help me. @Envious_Data, do you have an idea?

Hello....i rooted my sm-g360az samsung phone and when i restarted the phone, it didn't boot up to the home screen. It shows the samsung logo and then becomes blank....i later on came to know on the internet that i hadnt enabled 'oem unlock' on 'developer options' before rooting. I sent the phone to samsung for repair and they sent it back to me today saying that the phone is beyond repair because it was rooted, though i hadnt mentioned to them that i had rooted the phone. How do i get my phone to work again? I need it very badly for work purposes. Can somebody help me with this....

Can't 100% guarantee you that it will work or not.Both device have same spec so it should work but one have 2mp font camera and other have 1.9mp camera. It shouldn't be a big problem I think.
And can you also tell me weather you were taking about sm-g361f or sm-g360f brother? Can you mention the exact model number I should try flashing with? THERE ARE MANY MODELS IN SM-G360....WHICH ONE WOULD SUIT THE BEST BROTHER?

You need to install twrp via odin and from twrp you need to do a full factory reset(data,cache,delvik,phone memory).after that try again to flash stock rom via odin.Here is the twrp link for your device http://teamw.in/devices/samsunggalaxycoreprimequalcomm.html

Why do you need stock recovery?There's no stock recovery available for your device.Try to instell different twrp version for your phone.
Flash the zip file attached using TWRP recovery and you are rooted. :good:
I must be missing some steps
I must have missed some initial steps at some point. I've tried to install TWRP using Mobileuncle Tools and SPFlash Tools without success.
When I try to start my phone into bootloader mode, I get a warning that the function is turned off for security.
What am I doing incorrectly?
Thanks in advance! I appreciate your good works!

I'm sorry that it has taken so long to reply. Summer is crazy around here. Look up "chaos" in the dictionary and you will find my picture beside the definition!
My phone, actually today, updated to Android 6. So, I will need to root it over again. As soon as that happens, I'll get rid of that KingRoot bs.

You were eventually able to install twrp though right? Seems pretty straight forward and easy. Unlock bootloader, setup adb on comp, enable adb on phone, boot into twrp, flash custom recovery.

Nope. I missed that the unlock part was necessary! Thank you for giving the details though!!!!
When I figured that Device Only mode gives decent GPS use for maps, directions, and Pokémon Go I just decided to leave it be. Plus all this concern with root and Pokémon Go not working. I don't play much but I keep my phone as backup when my son's battery dies.
Thanks again!
