Hey guys, so I need help in gaining root access on my phone.
I followed this guys guide to getting to rooting ( under 10 posts, but yeah I followed a youtuber by the name of Qbking77 ), and it was good!,,, Until I used 2 root checkers and they said I don't actually have root access!
Right now I have twrp installed, an unlocked bootloader, and a phone sim locked to sprint and my main goal is to unlock it for a canadian carrier and root it to run custom roms.
I'm even willing to fork out some coffee money if someone can help me out here!
Feel free to ask me questions if you need to know more about my phone, and thanks in advance guys !
Did you flash SuperSU/superuser?

Yeah, I did everything as posted in the video that I used, and he flashed it with twrp (sorry if I get the terminology wrong lol)
You may just need to go into the SuperSU/superuser app and update the binaries

Open your app drawer and find the supersu/superuser app and select it to open the app
It will tell you if the binaries need to be updated

There is an app in the themes section but I don't think it's working on 4.3 as of yet.
There is a thread in Q&A I believe has a solution for 4.3 users

Thank you for that. That was my favorite ROM by far just because of how stable it was and the battery life was great.

If you are sure that the ROM is made for your device just remove the device model check script from the update script file.
And try to flash it you will succeed.

you dont need a SHA1-Digest just a simple text editor is enough.

Have you ever tried installing any other ROM did it get successful or any error with that also?
Error 6 is related to updater script . Some lines are incorrectly written
it seems while you editing updater script you edited wrong lines send me the script file i will edit and send you back.

Replace the old update script file with this one.
I have removed device check script from the file.
Double check whether the ROM is compatible with your device and flash it.
Double check the ROM
Did you try the script? have you got succeeded? @RemainingWind

then we can conform that this is caused due to device model check failed by script.
