Do you have system write protection off? You have be able to write to system for changes to stick

Maybe that's the problem, where can I change the system write protection, that is the answer to many questions, like I can't use xposed an sole others, so we're can I turn it off? Thanks for the answer

Is it the dev edition? If not and you rooted using jcase method, his method replaces stock recovery with a version of Android with write protection off. So just boot into "recovery" and you'll be good

Yes. If you've rooted with Jcase's method, you need to reboot into "recovery" mode to have system writable.
you can either use adb reboot recovery command or install something like quickboot app and choose reboot recovery.

well I´ve tried what you told me but when I reboot into recovery only appear a green android with a red triangle on him, then reboot but I check the protection with adb shell getprop ro.boot.write_protect and gives me 1, when should be 0, any ideas? I´m rooted with RockMyMoto

if you rooted with jcase's method and you see a recovery like you've described either you've put the stock recovery back on the phone, or you haven't rooted properly.
Putting back stock recovery breaks the system write capability of the root method.

Just 'Freeze' the applications. It should have the same effect on your battery life and it survives without system write protection. It also has the added benefit of being easily reversed if you accidentally disable anything important.

If you rooted using jcase's method, the recovery was hijacked. This means that instead of rebooting into a recovery when you "reboot recovery," it'll reboot the phone normally, but write protection will be off. This allows you to do what you want to do (i.e. remove apps/bloatware). Once that's done, you'd reboot and everything would be normal and write protection would be turned on again.

Help rooting

Hi, I have a lg l90 d405n with lolipop version v20a. I've rooted and changed rom last month but then restored it back to default rom. I' trying to root it again now but i cant. I followed different guides but none of them worked. I've tried the one click root, fails because send command crash. Update.zip in sd card, it fails because it cannot verify the file signature. Is there a specific method to use in this version?
If you have custom recovery instaled just download flashable supersu.zip and flash it..(search for it in xda forum to avoid scams).

If you have restore your to the original ROM, just follow this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/guide-root-method-lg-devices-t3049772
This is only the command that you have too use, read the post in the link I already gave you.
1 -
adb.exe devices
2 -
adb.exe push busybox /data/local/tmp/ && adb.exe push lg_root.sh /data/local/tmp && adb.exe push UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip /data/local/tmp

You can always try Kingroot.
It never failed me in any device, but there are always a first time:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/one-click-root-tool-android-2-x-5-0-t3107461
I always used the pc version.
But try first with the APK.
Good Luck!!!

Reinstall LG drivers, and try again. If still not working and if your windows is 10 try rebooting it and try again.. I needed to do that sometimes for "1click root" to work..
If fails try kingo root although Its a bit difficult to replace it with supersu..

Kingroot worked, i've instaled aboot for the v20a software that's in the other thread, flashed clockworkmod and cyanogen. Working good thanks

I get no errors, i can erase from mfastboot or fastboot, and format it from cwm.
But I THINK, is an I/O error... there is a way to do something like "chkdsk" but in android?

Moto X-Ghost Can't Boot/Reboot Directly to System OS.

Hi Guys,
Am facing this problem, and that is my Moto X-Ghost device can boot directly into system OS when I press power key to switch on the device but rather goes to Recovery/TWRP . And also when I I'm in TWRP recovery or any other recovery, I can't reboot to System and it rather boot back to TWRP again.
Please what fix do I need and how to solve this.
Please any help and guide is welcome.

Sounds like there is no system on the phone or maybe corrupted partition.
First try formatting,restoring /system partition (a trick to have a clean partition would be to format it to f2fs and then back to ext4), once done flash a ROM on top with TWRP. Backup your /data partition , then make a factory reset and reboot .
If that doest work use RSD lite or Fastboot tools to flash stock ROM including stock recovery so you'll have to start from scratch.

Then reflash recovery, probably that's what is causing it. Use fastboot to flash it.

Flash official TWRP 2.8.7.0 , after you download the image check md5sum to make sure its not corrupted.
If that doesn't work reflash full stock ROM with RSD lite or via fastboot and start from scratch.

Huawei P8 Lite 2017 [PRA-LX1] - ADB & Fastboot Error (Command not allowed)

Hello everyone!
A month ago I rooted my device (Huawei P8 Lite 2017 [PRA-LX1]) using the XDA tutorial here. Now I am trying to recover my device using this XDA tutorial here.
My device is fully working but I have a few problems and bugs now and then so I want to fully recover it. My bootloader is unlocked and USB Debugging is on but every time I try to recover my phone or flash anything, I am getting the same error over and over and over again: FAILED (remote: Command not allowed).
Any ideas on how to fix that and recover my device?
is the frp locked?

first of all...take a backup using twrp...and then...you must flash the stock recovery...if you have root...you can use flashify...and then you must do a factory reset using the stock recovery...
after all the steps above...
you must relock your bootloader using thia command:
fastboot oem relock xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
xxxx.... are your bootloader unlock code...
after locking the bootloader you can re enable your oem unlocking in developing options

reasons why you need the stock recovery:
after relocking the bootloader your phone asks to delete everything and encrypt the phone again.
without stock recovery you can't
why you need to do a factory reset using the stock recovery first?
your phone will detect your phone as rooted and will give you this error when you try to relock the bootloader
root risk or something...i don't remember it

First things first, thank you so much for taking the time to help me with a solution. Here's the problem: I can't do anything with TWRP because it's stuck at booting.
use flashify to flash twrp on your phone...or you can use dd commands via terminal and super su

I did and it says "not found". That's really weird, how can I fix a device that doesn't let you flash anything and it's firmware doesn't even work? When I try to open TWRP it stuck at boot and doesn't do anything. I can't even reset my device because it stays at boot.

Boot into TWRP without flashing?

Is it possible to boot into custom recovery without actually flashing it? Used to do it on other devices but it was a long time ago? I need to edit build.prop to enable multi user but don't want to do any other changes to my phone. Like unlocking bootloader etc. Many thanks.

If I remember correctly, twrp image must be in ADB folder and then:

or
