I want to root my moto g 2014.
I found the great index thread and read through the guides.
Everything seems pretty straight forward, but I don't understand what the limitations of the offered recovery are and why it's thread is locked?
This is the only thing holding me back from rooting my phone, could some please elaborate on the situation.

It's outdated and unofficial. Go to TWRP 2.8.4.0
Thank you for your help.
Some one should then update the index in the Q&A section of this forum so that less experienced members like me don't use the old unofficial version.
I've got just on more question.
Can I use any SuperSu update file or are those device specific?
Otherwise I would use the one from the guide

SuperSU is not device specific. Just download the latest stable download.chainfire.eu/supersu and flash it via recovery

Hello guys,
I am a little rusty on the process, but I followed all directions. My phone is unlocked and install twrp recovery, after that I flashes SuperSU 1.25, but when I go to the app is says I need to re-root and consult relevent forums for your device. So I am here asking for help
thanks

The rom is OTA Ready! You will need stock recovery to successfully run the OTA.
I'm using TWRP, can you please share a link for the stock recovery?

Since you did not provide your version, here is a collection of stock recoveries.
What about S-On users? Is there some option to get an OTAs updates without convertation via RUU?

How can we say about the Android 5.0 update for htc One M7 with this stock ROM?
Worked perfectly with my S-ON HTC one
Thanks alot! worked perfectly after flashing boot.img on my htc one with s-on.
the new link for 4.4.4 is down :/
Stock Recovery build.prop mismatch
Hi, I am trying to install 5.0.1 on a converted GPe HTC One M7 running 4.4.4 but am getting an error when trying to flash image from stock recovery. It says the fingerprint of build.prop release-keys is wrong (4.4.2), even though /system/build.prop shows correct (htc/m7_google/m7:4.4.4/KTU84P.H1/356549).
Any idea what could be causing this? I am usually using TWRP to backup/recover.
Thanks, Esben
Are we gonna see an updated version of this ROM with android lollipop?
HTC One M7 Stock ROM
I have a HTC One M7 S-On with unlocked bootloader and I want to put the stock rom 4.4.4.
From what I have read I have to extract the boot.img and flash it via fastboot.
And after that I have to download TWRP from Google Play and copy the archive on my HTC and install it from TWRP (and I have to check Wipe Data) and it will do the rest.
Could someone explain me step by step how to flash the boot.img (I downloaded and installed adb and fastboot for windows from here)? and if I understood what I have to do in rest?
Thank you!
I updated my htc one m7 to 5.0.2 just couple days ago. My question now is that can i root my phone just regular way. I mean; first open bootloader with htcdev and then using twrp recovery. If so, what version of twrp i should use. I know that this question is maybe a noob question but i want to do this right.
Thanks for your responses!

What steps have you done on your device till now?
I suppose you have only unlocked the device (when you enter hboot you will see the text UNLOCKED if that is true), so next to do will be flash the recovery and then from the recovery flash the zip file with supersu and that's it, once you have supersu in place you are ready to run apps that need root privilegies.

Seriously? You asked the same question yesterday which I gave you the answer

and

Instruction how to flash twrp in the same link where you can download it. (fastboot install method)
So flash TWRP then using TWRP flash latest supersu.zip (version 2.46).
Even simpler if you flash the latest version of TWRP, boot in recovery then reboot. Before rebooting, TWRP will ask if you want to root, select yes. If this method doesn't work then do the above (manually flashing supersu.zip)
No, i asked a question, but not all questions like on this thread.
Do you know the answer to this questions?
If possible of course when i flash the TMWR recovery do i still get OTA updates?

Also answered again in post #2 here.
So I answered your 3 questions (yesterday), I gave you link to a detailed explanation about your ota updates question, I gave link to download and flash TWRP and I gave you link to download Supersu.
What else do you need? How to flash the recovery? How to flash Supersu? Just ask if you need help with that but stop asking the same question again and again. :laugh:
Hi guys I got this old lg d415 from my cousin and Wana install some roms on it since I'm a noob on this device I need some help regarding what to do unlock bootloader or what .... I see that d415 has a unlocked bootloader or no ?
Its bootloader is already unlocked just root and flash twrp. kingroot to root and flashify to flash the recovery seem easiest. *Just make sure to update to LP beforehand. here's a link for recovery. You may be able to get a more updated version of the recovery off the twrp site. Also I suggest using the most recent lineage build. lineage

Ypu wrong you have to unlock before flashing unless you are planning on bricking your device. You first have to root it and then flash laf with zeros u lock bootlosder, flash recocery , thenflash rom
Please don't tell people stuff you don't know about. The T-Mobile variant comes with its bootloader already unlocked. Also there is no laf to mess with.
