Hi all, hope anyone can help.
My phone was all rooted no problem after unlocking my bootloader etc.
I did the latest OTA update and it went through all fine. I saw I still had superuser on my razr i so didn't think much of it.
I came to use a particular app the other day and realised it wasn't working.
I rebooted my phone and noticed for the first time that the unlocked that appears under the motorola sign (when I unlocked the bootloader it started displaying) was now missing.
I tried to update the binary settings on the superuser and it kept on failing. Then I downloaded root checker and it said my phone was incorrectly rooted.
So couple of questions if I may:
1 - how do I go about properly rooting my phone again....has my bootloader re-locked?
2 - how do I scrap the whole thing and go back to stock i.e removing superuser completely.
Thank you all and Merry Xmas!

Hi,
everything you described is normal after an OTA update. The unlocked image at startup is replaced by the standard one but your bootloader stays unlocked. Root access gets lost after the update but you simply have to re-root it as you did the first time. (root exploit or root zip for cwm)
look here:

hey
1. go to settings/apps/ and search the app superuser and deinstall updates (only if you had some,if not skip this)
2. use rootexplorer or another with same functions, go to System/Apps and delete the Superuser.apk
3. go to playstore and install the Superuser app(yes its right)
4.rootexplorer again, go to System/bin and delete SU
5. go to playstore and deinstall Superuser.. done

Cheers but I won't be able to do this I think as superuser is a system file that I cannot remove without being fully rooted first so therefore I guess I will have to re-root it to unroot it lol.

yep i think so.
HI.
I received my shiny new Xperia Z yesterday and got up this morning to root it.
The problem I have is, nothing i do seems to work!
Before I start, when I checked my Bootloader Unlock status, it said "Yes", the after going through the steps it changed to "No".
I followed the guide on here for the EasyRooting Toolkit for Xperia Z and it failed the first time, as the phone didn't do anything when i tapped "Restore Data", so I restarted the process, rebooted the phone and tried again. This time, I was able to start the Restore process and when the restore ended, I went to the white screen as was told, waited, then powered off the screen and the phone rebooted.
When I downloaded Root Checker from the Play Store, it tells me that the system is running a bit slow, but ultimately that Root Access has failed. The same happens with Titanium Backup*ROOT.
Now when I run the .bat file, it tells me it can't find adb.exe and quits out.
I've also tried Bin4ry's Root with Restore and it just comes up file not found (which I'm assuming is referring to adb.exe)
I would like to keep the Bootloader intact just now if possible.
Any suggestions?
*EDIT* I should add that I've re-downloaded the rooting files, restarted the PC and moved the whole extracted folder to the root of my C: Drive.
Try to root with flaahtool.
Maybe you will need a factory reset first.

Getting weird.....
OK. I've now discovered via Flashtool that I have root access and that Busybox and SU Binary is installed? Yet Root Checker says no and Titanium Backup*ROOT just hangs when its searching for root access.
Any ideas?

Go to the SuperUser app and remove Titanium from it, then re-run Titanium and see if it works.
If it doesn't try:

You would've helped more if you hadn't written it all in caps.
Did the OP state that he was blind?
Thanks to all the replies, especially the REALLY enthusiastic ones! I ended up unlocking the bootloader flashing a Cwm and rooting that way. Worked out much easier in the long run. Funny thing is, Bravia Engine is still saying it's enabled?

Did you back-up your TA partition?
It also did on mine, but I didn't really test if it worked since I never used it anyways.
Never got a chance to back up my TA partition.
Because of how my phone was set up, with the failed root to start off with, I had to unlock the Bootloader to get root.
I also had no problems with NFC either.
All I did was reset to factory and my Unlockable status went back to "Yes". I then unlocked the Bootloader, flashed CWM and a pre-rooted rip.
Bravia Engine and Gracenote are working perfectly.

Hi Guys,
I am totally newbie here. I just got my Sony Xperia V, I found a thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2277334
And then, in the post by imk82, he said he must do a backup first with Sony's backup app before he finally able to root Sony Xperia V with Bin4ry method with no problem in here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41457358&postcount=2861
But I have no idea what does he mean by "Sony's Backup-app".
Someone could tell me more specific about it?
Is it App in Google Play or is it PC Companion?
And why is it related?
Thanks.
Furthermore, there seems 2 options to root Xperia V
If you look at the source of the script, you will see...
echo 1) Normal
echo 2) Special (for example: Sony Tablet S, Medion Lifetab)
echo 3) New Xperia Root by Goroh_kun (Xperia Z, Xperia V [JellyBean] ...)
echo G) Google Glass Mode (thx Saurik for the ab file)
Seems either 1 or 3 can be chosen to root Xperia V, but what's the different? I couldn't find the info anywhere
a backup is not essential.
I have never heard of rooting destroying any files. (*But that is no gurentee)
You need option 3 for jellbean

Hi thanks for reply.
I finally found the guide here (hxxp://talk.sonymobile.com/message/398680#398680), it's quite simple
I copy paste the guide here :
How to root Xperia T and Xperia V ( 9.1.A.1.140 )
Go to settings > Security > Mark "Unknown sources"
Settings > Developer options > Mark USB debugging
Download the Rooting Toolkit > Link 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 and extract it. Run it and select Normal Mode , press enter. Now connect your phone, follow the on-screen instructions it shows.

Hi, since I use my xperia in German I'm not sure about English menu. But try like this:
There should be an app already installed at your xperia. Called Backup & Restore (or similar) - the icon is round and looks a little bit like a door of a safe / vault, colors are mostly white and some red. Start this app and follow instructions.
Hope it helps you.

No. 1 is for ICS based firmwares

I tried the method Bin4ry gave, but the root was not working well, for example when I run Titanium Backup it's asking for permissions thousands times.
Then I installed BusyBox from the market, and after that rooted with this method - Motochopper, it installs SuperSU, and then the applications ask the SuperSU for permissions only once and its working fine now.
You can safely delete the Superuser and BusyBox Free after that, only SuperSU is needed.
I am not sure though which I did first, the Motochoper root or the BusyBox installer.

I mean I rooted it with the Bin4ry method first, it was rooted, but the Superuser required permissions everytime multiple times and didn't remembered. So with the Motochopper it installed SuperSU instead of Superuser and it's working fine with it.

Hi
I have tested the root tool from China forum. My device is SGP312 WIFI 32GB 10.3.1.C.0.136. No need to unlocked.
Download the attachment and install. One click and then it will reboot. It is rooted!
But the root-mangement software is Chinese. You can download Supersu or Superuser.
Use the Chinese root software to give Supersu or Superuser root access.
Run Supersu or Superuser and upgrade the binary. Exit and uninstall the Chinese root software.
Reboot. Then you are rooted with Supersu or Superuser.
This is the original link: http://www.mgyun.com/vroot
incredible...works on sgp321 .244......good job....juat install supersu afterwards and remove the chinese app....greatttttt
Good! I can confirm it works, just rooted my still locked SGP311FR with it.
What I don't like it's an exe file, install the app then run it to root.
If someone can extract the script and replace the root apk by superSU it would be cool.
Also I noticed while rooting my tablet that the screen became white two times (really fast for less than a second, sort of blink) like the Display tricks that were used before to root our xperia's.
Anyway thanks.
Btw : @insideccw posting a link to the source, and maybe the name of the autor of this tool, would be better if it's not your own tool.

That's pretty much what I did. I've tried SuperSU, superuser, and the cwm app. The problem seems to be that the updated binaries don't "stick", SuperSU claimed updating was a success but then prompted me to do so every time I opened it.

I don't know if the info in this thread may be of any use : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1539711.
Specifically in the OP :
Remember, if you remove older first without installing newer one, you will lose Root n newer won't run.
One more thing market version will be regular application, so hard reset can delete it. So better install with flashable zip, to make it system application.
And in Post #8 :
Confirmed working fine! Recommended to install via CWM. It will replace the other (superuser) automatically so you don't have to manually remove it.
I used the above zip file and instructions a long time ago on my Galaxy S....but it may still be relevant for Tablet Z.
What I've been doing us installing from the play store, updating binaries, and then removing the Chinese app. Once I do that, I lose root in the market superSU and other root apps.
I'll probably end up unlocking the boot loader and flashing an image over adb.
Thanks for the help!

That is because you dont have /system r/w access.

It worked for me...I accidentally removed the Chinese app.
1. I did a reroot again.
2. installed dualrecovery and flashed the UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.65.zip.
3. It works now.
Supersu and cwm superuser caused my phone to go in a reboot loop when I tried updating the binaries. Superuser by ChainsDD is working fine though.

Any tips on how t go about correcting this? Would I need to use adb or can I handle this form within android?
EDIT: Looks like others are having the same issue.
Doesn't work with SGP321 LTE tablet (on the newest firmware .244)
1. in order to uninstall the chinese root app one needs to have SuperSu
2. once you install SuperSU the root checker shows "OK, you're rooted"
3. once you get rid of the chinese root the root checker shows "you're NOT rooted" and the SuperSU binaries can't get updated (strange it needs another update)

For those of you having this issue as I was, I just got mine to work with SuperSU. Hopefully these steps will work for you too:
-Gain root with the magical Chinese root tool
-install SuperSU
-update SuperSU binaries
-in SuperSU settings, choose "Switch superuser app"
-reboot the tablet and immediately go to the playstore and install SuperSU
-update SuperSU binaries
Let me know if it works!
Hi!
I have rooted SGSA and update the SuperSU app from Google Play.
I see in options that there is an option "install supersu into /system"
Is unchecked from default.
What it does?? (i search Internet but i didn't find any information...)
It is good to check it? or it isn't necessary?
Thank you.

If I choose it will it stabilize the system so when I reboot it will keep root?
I had it all set up rooted and SuperSu and went to back it up so I could just use twrp recovery and restore it and still be rooted and just like it is after rooting and all.
I made the back up and did the required reboot and when it finished I lost root.
Will this work?

On Galaxy S Advance I9070? Check if you have USB debugging ON (when you said you lost root). This will not make it more stable, SuperSU.apk is just a GUI for controling root. And you root with SU file that is pushed to system (can't remember what folder exacly).

I had it rooted with Kingroot.
As far as I know that's the only way for this model of device.
Then using MrW0lf's method I replaced and removed Kinguser for SuperSU.
I was still rooted.
I wanted to make a backup so when using restore I could retain root and SuperSU in my system.
The setting of choosing to make SuperSU a system app in stead of as it is, I thought would make it possible to keep root.
I have used restore while having root with Kinguser and kept root.
I am not understanding why I loose root when restoring while having SuperSU.

As far as I know that's the only way for this model of device.
Then using MrW0lf's method I replaced and removed Kinguser for SuperSU.
I was still rooted.
I wanted to make a backup so when using restore I could retain root and SuperSU in my system.
The setting of choosing to make SuperSU a system app in stead of as it is, I thought would make it possible to keep root.
I have used restore while having root with Kinguser and kept root.
I am not understanding why I loose root when restoring while having SuperSU.

I do not thing that moving SuperSu to System partition would help you. Main file that enables root permissions are not in that apk, you can install SuperSu from the Play store. That is not the problem.
Do you know why I loose root after a restore?
