Root confirmed! - Nexus 4 General

I can now confirm that I have root! Check the development board for details. Just wanted to share with everyone that root works now. Recovery doesn't allow any flashing yet though so use the manual method of rooting through ADB.

[Q] How i can get root without rom install?

Hi everyone! As I wrote in title how i can get super user priority, but without instal a new ROM?
Thanks in advance!
not possible
Actually I think you can do it with the toolkit
Sent from my GT-I8190 using Tapatalk 2
Try bin4ry root many android method, I rooted my S3 with that method.
Sent from my LT26i using xda app-developers app
It's possible by flashing cwm in odin and then supersu.zip, or by flashing an insecure boot with toolkit.
Try the toolkit from the dev section. I rooted my phone using the toolkit

One person thinks they've locked the bootloader though. I'd be careful.
I'm going to wait for some Dev to come out with stock rooted. You could go to unrooted stock then get the ota.
BTW source is up

shabbypenguin has informed us that the bootloader is not locked! And was able to reinstall root normally and custom recovery.
Oh thank god!

Anyone who's unlocked and rooted but STOCK try installing yet? I'm hoping that goes smoothly... it used to with the S3, although you'd lose root, but if it can be easily re-rooted as reported here than that's no biggie.
I tried but I tried with a custom recovery and it fails. Shabbypenguin knows the exact way.

Ok. So just to clarify. I just got my s4 today. If I update it does not affect rooting options and bootloaders already out? I could root and trwp? Thanks

Safestrap download

So I'd still been using Aospizza but wanted to remove it and safestrap, but I accidentally removed the safestrap apk from my SD card before I removed the backup. The problem is that all of the safestrap links are dead now. Does anyone have a link or can they attach the apk?

A simple Google search would have worked too... -_-
If you cant get it from there then unlock your bootloader and RSD lite to stock, that should wipe it off.

Did you try the link? It's dead. No file found. Every link I search for is dead now.

Awesome! Thanks! I was using safestrap and hadn't unlocked the bootloader yet cause I wanted to play with rooting and custom recoveries before I got too involved. I'd never had an android before. Now I'm gonna go for it. Thanks again for the link!
