Hey,
I have previously rooted my phone and did a telus update and lots my root.
If I were to root again would any errors occur?
no, just reflash the vulnerable bootloader, apply update.zip to get root, and update the superuser app from the market place
im useing ota 2.3.4 and ive tried everything to root the nexus one universal,z4,gingerbreak i have the bootloader unlocked but it will not root however gingerbreak did install su i thought my G2X was a trip this thing is giveing me more grey hair somew one have a solution
I had this problem and just managed to figure it out today (through the power of google). Superboot, oneclick and gingerbreak all don't work for 2.3.4 as of right now, so you have to use the PASSIMG method to flash an older version and root from there.
I found a good guide, but given that I've been a lurker for the past couple years as opposed to a regular poster, I can't link it. In lieu of a link, I suggest a search query such as "root 2.3.4 nd1razor"
Your bootloader is unlocked. No need for all that crap. Put the su zip on your sd card. Flash custom recovery via fastboot. Boot directly into the new recovery. And flash the su.zip from the recovery. You're rooted. The end.
you just need to flash custom recovery via fast boot or rom manager.then you can flash custom roms (which mostly have root along with tweaks) via recovery

I also unlocked the bootloader!
I put this ROM:

But I still do not have root permissions ... Why?
You have them, but probably don't know how to use them. How do you check for them?
How did you put the ROM? Did you flash custom recovery?
Yes, i flash recovery-RA-passion-v2.2.1.img
Now my rom is: MIUI-1.9.16
The strange thing is that I managed to install the rom and recovery without having root permissions
Not strange. You don't need root. You have unlocked bootloader......

Thanks, you're very kind!
How do for get root permissions ?
The ROM includes them. When you're inside the ROM, you have root.
You are right !!!!! I just had to change the parameters with superuser
thanks
P.S.: Sorry for my ignorance

Just install root again, same as you did it last time.
Hey guys,
I've just received my replacement phone and I'm trying to route it.
It came with 4.3 already installed.
I've unlocked the bootloader and installed CWM but want to s-off so I'm trying to root my stock (Three UK branding) ROM.
I've trying flashing superuser an superSU from recovery (CWM and TWRP) and they flash successfully and install onto my phone but don't actually give me root access!?
It also won't let me update the binaries in SuperSU
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Edit - I'd somehow managed to download an outdated version on SuperSU. It's working now. Silly me.
Hi
I have a moto x with the bootloader unlocked and stock kernel with TWRP. Everything else is stock android 4.4 from T-Mobile.
I followed this thread to root the phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2536200 "[HOW-TO][DEV EDITION ONLY]Root on 4.4 KitKat"
Everything went fine and I had root acces. I installed xposed framework and some moddueles without problem and cerberus but when I tried to install greenify I noticed I couldn't give it root permissions. I checked super su's app and everything seemed normal so I downloaded Root Checker to confirm I'm rooted but it says I'm not.
Knowing that I lost root (can't figure out why) I went to super su app and selected to unroot the device. Then I booted into recovery and flashed again the root zip but when checking again if I have root privileges with root checker, it still says no.
Now I can't get root again. I'd like to avoid using fastboot because I'm using linux (I'm a noob with bootloaders and fastboot because I got spoiled by Samsung).
Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance :fingers-crossed:
I forgot to mention that I did a backup before I rooted the device the first time in case that helps.
Nevermind. I fixed it.
