How to root Android 5.0.2 lollipop?? - Sprint HTC One (M7)

Guys i have just updated to android 5.0.2 via ruu!! I am soff!! But i think i am not able to riot my device , i mean i am not able to install su binary on it!! When i installed supersu from play store it asked me to install su binary, which i cant find it over the google and xda!! can anyone provide me the link for su binary.zip fir android 5.0.2 stock which can be flashed in recovery!!
Sorry for such a noob question!!
Thanks

I can't think of the name at the moment, but there's a program that allows you to flash a different recovery and will also root. If nobody had posted the name, I'll find it for you when I get home tonight.

if you google "supersu" the xda supersu subforum is the 2nd link. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1538053
you can download the super su binary here: http://download.chainfire.eu/695/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.45.zip

The program I used was called "Windroid Universal Android Toolkit. v 2.1"
restored root on my HTC One easy peasy.

No root access

Hello guys ,
Yesterday i followed the tutorial in the xda channel for s-off and Root for the HTC One.
I installed twrp and after that superuser. To Check my Root i downloaded Root checker from the play Store.
The app says i have no root acccess.
I have the stock HTC One Rom with Sense 5.5 and Android 4.3 installed.
Why i have no root Access ?
Thank u very much and sorry for my Bad english skills.
Did you install SuperUser from TWRP?
Have you launched it to make sure it's running?
Make sure you have superuser Access in the Superuser settings set to apps and adb
Also have you got logging on?
I installed superuser over twrp an I can lunch it.
But i have no access. I dont know how to fix that.
Any one ideas ?
Make sure it's superuser 1.65.

Try re-flash SuperSu or download [2014.05.18] SuperSU v1.97 from here. While you are on the site read some of later post to see if someone has had a similar issue. It sounds like it just didn't install properly.

Lollipop root problem(s)

Background info:
1) Rooted my Xperia Z lollipop 5.0.2 with king root
2)phone is unlocked bootloader(or what ever it's called, I checked with the service config)
3) Got no idea about rooting aha
Problem 1: Can't change kingroot to SuperSU. I followed the method I thread used but it said something about not being mounted properly on the terminal and before it said I have to install busy box
Problem 2: I'm trying to enter recovery mode so I can install the zip file for xposed frameworks. I'm using XZrecovery and it says to install busybox. I did that(I downloaded busynox and busybox installer) for busybox, I tried the smart install but it said it wouldn't install. I tried busybox installer and I still didn't install (said something like its compatitable for this edition ). This is for TWRP recovery that I saw on youtube
3) Problem 3
I can't enter recovery mode normally by pressing the power and volume up . it just vibrates 4 times and doesn't turn on
So yeah I need help with those problems. I tried looking through the forums but they are all so weird and complicated
Sorry I'm really new to all of this

i think you should've asked on the Original thread, question are supposed to be on the Q & A section not the genral section i think.

Root stock Lollipop 5.0.2 with Kingroot & Super-Sume .......no tripping Knox

SM-T700 UK version stock 5.0.2
1. Root using Kingroot 4.5
2. ONLY now !!! install and run Super-Sume
3. Update SuperSu binaries
That's all : you have root, SuperSu and Knox still "O" and Kingroot it's gone...
Would people please post the full build version of the firmware they have success or failure with, so others are aware of which ones work.
has this method been verified by other users?
Share your experience please!
It's brand new...
Verified by myself
Have you maintained root after reboot?
ashyx said:
Already tried it, v4.5 is posted in my kingroot thread, didn't work on lollipop for t805.
Neither did supersu me, binary always fails to update, once it did manage after several tries, but root is lost after reboot.
Supersu me is just the same script as posted in the kingroot thread. Root always lost after reboot.

Just following your thread, messing with Kingroot 4.5 (from your tread) I obtained root.
Also someone there suggesting SuperSume to remove Kingroot.
I use it and that's it
Yes the root it's permanent

Can you then install SuperSu or do you need to keep the SuperSume?
Anyone else confirm this method ?

Super_Sume make all this "work" with one click !
Ok guys, thanks for confirming, Sweet
Thanks for the tip. This worked perfectly. I installed Kingroot 4.5. When Kingroot runs scroll down and press "Try it" and it rooted. I then immediately installed Busybox from the Google Play store and ran the smart installer. After a successful install of Busybox, I then installed Super-Sume from the Play store. I ran Super-Sume and it installed Super SU and removed Kingroot. After that, I opened Super SU and allowed it to update the binary. Rebooted. I checked root with Root Checker app and checked Knox with an app called Knox Status on the Play store. Root is still active and Knox is still at "0". I powered off, then restarted again. Root has stayed.
I did this on a brand new US region SM-T700 pulled straight from the box and updated to Lolilipop from OTA.
System Version:
SM-T700
LRX22G.T700XXU1BOE3
*ROOT WORKING !! SMT-700 OTA 'lollipop'
Confirmed working on Lollipop NEE-T805XXU1BOE3 firmware.
Reflashed back to complete stock then ran Kingroot v4.5, root succeeded first time.
Ran Supersu me to remove Kingroot and install Supersu then updated the su binary.
Rebooted then checked root status. Full root access still available.
No need to install busybox as Supersu me already installs busy box.
Looks like we have a winner, no need to downgrade to Kitkat any more. :good:
Hopefully now T807/707 users can now get root.
Credits go to the devs of Kingroot, Chainfire and Supersu me.

It does not appear to work on T707a with 5.0.2.
Maybe ashyx could help.
What exactly didn't work for you ?

Do you think this is likely to work for KitKat ANL1? I already downgraded as part of Ashyx's tutorial to ANF7.
My only reservation to going to Lollipop is that I want to use the Xposed framework which I think is still in it's infancy for 5.x or still not compatible.
So before this my options are to keep the original Kitkat by Flashfire - ANL1 or go directly to Lollipop. For the latter I could just get the OTA and do this method now. But not sure if I go to ANL1 kingroot will work as easily
If not I'll continue in the normal way I guess.
Once you have root with Kingroot install Super Sume and run it.
Kingroot 4.5 from ashyxs tread works for me.
Super-Sume just install busybox, SuperSu and get rid of Kingroot.
Why not use Flashfire to install whatever you want: KK or L ?

Difficulty Rooting Newest RUU

Hello everyone,
I'm having an issue - I wasn't able to flash the newest extracted firmware in the development section so I went ahead and just ran the full RUU. I've been running custom roms for years and I decided that maybe I just wanted to run stock rooted for a while so I unlocked my bootloader again, flashed the most recent TWRP and installed the most recent SuperSU zip.
Unfortunately it does not seem to have rooted my phone. SuperSU is indeed installed in the system folder and it prompts for root permission when I use root apps, but even when I grant permission the apps cannot obtain root access. What happens is it looks like they are going to get root access, the phone slows down a bit for a second, and then I get an error message from the app in question saying that either my phone isn't rooted or that root permission has been denied. If I open SuperSU, it lists all of my root apps with the green hashtag indicating that permission is granted.
Am I correct in assuming that installing SuperSU did not root my phone? If so, is there a way to root without installing a custom rom?
For clarification, this is all on the most recent RUU, software version 6.23.651..10, Lollipop 5.0.2
Thanks in advance.
Which version of SuperSU are you flashing?

Well I'm a dolt, I was using v1.69 but now I see that is a very old version. Going to try 2.46 right now, thanks.
Edit: Same issue on 2.46 :/
For anyone still looking at this thread, I was able to achieve root by flashing the newest SuperSU, version 2.52 which is actually still in beta and therefore not offered if you go to the main portion of the SuperSU website.
SuperSU v2.65 is the current stable offering
