Yes, this will work, but only if you want to use the unlocked bootloader and the custom recovery (CWM), because this is how the rooting is done by the AIO tool. If the goal is just the root, with the stock bootloader and recovery, you have to do it differently...

Thanks you, just unlock boot loader, install CWM and root my p990 successfully.
How it is to be done then?

[Q] Help for Recovery before install Paranoid 4.4

Hello,
I want to install Paranoid Android 4.4
My Z1 C6903 is in Stock rom 14.3.A.0.757 rooted, TA backup done and bootloader unlocked with stock recovery.
Now i'm a little bit lost, what should I do ?
1/ Install a custom recovery (TWRP or CWM) that I pick up separately and after install Paranoid 4.4
or
2/ Just follow the flashing instruction from Paranoid ? (does the boot.img include a custom recovery ?)
Thanks for the help ! (and sorry for my english.)

I have no idea, flash it and see, or just decompile the boot.img and see.

I've just flashed my Z1 with PA 4.4. It works perfectly !! Thanks for the advice. :good:
FYI, the recovery is CWM.
Last request : Is it possible to have stock camera app (from Z1 or Z2) into the PA 4.4 rom ?
No

twrp not support kitkat 4.4.4
Twrp is definitely supported. It's the only custom recovery I've used on the Moto X

This works just fine on 4.4.4 on my 1st gen moto x -> http://teamw.in/project/twrp2/234 I downloaded the 2.7.1.1 IMG from -> http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/ghost and flashed with mfastboot. That is what I'm still using, but others have successfully used the 2.8.x versions.
Just remember you have to reboot-bootloader and go into recovery IMMEDIATELY after flashing or it wont stick. example:
mfastboot flash recovery twrp.img
mfastboot reboot-bootloader
{use the phone's on screen instructions to select recovery}

Don't know. TWRP was the first custom recovery available for the X, so that is what I've used.
I haven't used CWM since my HTC Thunderbolt. (which is a while ago)

The "better" recovery is the one you prefer.

[HELP] Root access on Marshmallow 6.0.1

Hi,
How do I root the phone now, after upgrading to 6.0.1
I've tried the method mentioned here: http://www.guruswizard.com/2015/12/root-android-one-devices-on-6-0-1-marshmallow.html to root my karbonn Sparkle V
and it wasn't successful, and I've lost all data after unlocking bootloader [I've got desktop backups though]
When tried to flash that modified boot image mentioned in that page, I am getting this error:
target reported max download size of 134217728 bytes
sending ‘boot’…
OKAY [0.515s]
writing ‘boot’…
FAILED (remote: size too large)
finished. total time: 0.577s
Is it for 2nd Gen devices? Did anyone get root access on their 1st gen sprout4?
So how do I root my phone now?
Thanks.

Cody kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/cro...elopment/kernel-cody-kernel-07062015-t3128888
Supersu: http://download.chainfire.eu/743/SuperSU/BETA-SuperSU-v2.52.zip
Flash both of them, and enjoy root
Or if you want root on stock kernel
Use supersu 2.62 from attachments of this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=64161125
It will patch the kernel automatically and root without modifying system
Hope that helps

is there any way for rooting with custom kernel

Custom kernel and Custom Recovery both are different things,
Custom kernel is the device supreme commander which controls all processing, ram, fluidity and many others fact you can tweak it but cant use it to root the device..
On other hand Custom recovery is used to recover phone by flashing ROMS, zips , img etc.
So you can flash supersu from custom recovery and root your device
But if you already have custom kernel installed on device then its clear that your device is rooted, as bcoz. your custom kernel gives you some extra tweaks which is given after root.
So device emulates that you have custom kernel so your device is also rooted..
I think that you have understood....
BEST OF LUCK FOR YOUR FUTURE:good:

You can flash one using fastboot. Or instead of flashing you can even use the command "fastboot boot recovery ......... " (replace..... With name of recovery image file) . Once you are inside the recovery flash supersu zip normally and you'll root your phone without installing a custom recovery.

Hi,
Thanks for the info Atishay. How do you undo root if required post this method. Also does rooting with the above method affect future OTA installs?
Thanks.

Go to Supersu app and click the option for full unroot/cleanup. That'll do the trick. Also, if you are rooted, you still receive OTA. In fact I received the Lollipop OTA while I had a custom recovery installed. The only difference that made was that after downloaded when the phone rebooted into the recovery for installation, the OTA zip wasn't installed. So you can unroot, keep the stock recovery and kernel and locked bootloader (you can relock it using fastboot) then you'll receive OTAs. However, I'd suggest, you install a custom recovery and simply flash an OTA when it arrives from the forums. Hope that helped you.
Very helpful indeed! Thanks Bud!

Can not boot into recovery.

Dear everybody...first of all I am nube. Please forgive me if I've done something wrong. My moto g 2014 (xt 1068) is perfectly rooted and twrp ver. 2.7.0.1 was installed. I recently tried to update twrp 3.0.1 using flashify. After that I can not boot into recovery. Any chance to fix it ? Thanks in advance.
