Hello,
I have some questions about the root.
I'm actually, with a custom rom, Ultimate PureXP. But, since some days, I have some lags, so I want to reset my phone, installing back the original's sony rom.
When, this will be done, and I root my phone with the towel root app, can I install after app like "clean master", folder mount"... and install themes from the store ?
Thanks

If you plan on going back to stock and you root it successfully, all root apps should work just fine.
Sony themes will also work if you're on stock or a stock based ROM
Ok, thanks for your answer

Hi,
Can somebody please help me? I have a i9305 and Omni rom. Every time that i try to root mt phone i get error 110 when i try to install an app, both from the play store and from any other place (random websites, Xposed, and from apks from my phone). I called google and they didn't have an answer. I tried to change ROMs, and everyone that is rooted gives me this error (Omni only gives it after I root it manually). When i installed pre-rooted ROMs some apps do install (because of the sync) but after a few the error begins.
Please help...

flash back your official stock firmware and restore everything back to begin and start fresh with custom rom, best thing to do!

Nope, doesn't work...
I tried everything that i could think of, formatting (from stock), other ways to install, different ROMs... the only thing that works is starting fresh without root access.

that was what i meant with flash back stock firmware, by doing so you will loose root so you can start fresh agaiin with rooting and installing custom roms

Hi, I need to downgrade from kitkat to gingerbread in order to make Barclays pingit work. I tried many things but the damn app to my disgust won't work on rooted phones. Is it just a matter of using ODIN? And which gingerbread ROM should I use? Can you please send me some links thanks! :crying:
Have you tried temporary unrooting from the superSU/Superuser options then installing the app.

Hi, thanks for the reply, when I install SuperSU it tells me I need to update binary SU by doing a manual Re-root? What does it mean?
Just flash this in recovery http://download.chainfire.eu/370/Sup...erSU-v1.80.zip download link is at bottom of page.
EDIT: here's the latest update at bottom of page http://download.chainfire.eu/396/SuperSU/
Thank you, I flashed it, went to SuperSu, did the full un-root, it worked as the app disappeared but the damn Barclays app still finds the root and wont work...is there any other way around it? Or downgrading...
Found this but you need to install the 'Xposed Framework'' http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2577095
Thanks but I've already downgraded to stock rom, did what I had to do with Barclays Pingit and re upgraded to kitkat again...now I won't be doing this crap anymore, I will just buy a cheap 2nd hand mob, install the almighty Barclays apps and use that when needed...easy...:cyclops:
Yeah probably a better idea until the almighty Barclays app gets an update so customers can use it on rooted phone, but tbh i can't see that happening anytime soon.

You could install xposed and use root cloak. Apps that don't work if you have root are just stupid.
Hi all!
Iv got a Galaxy S III I9305 here, and it has just been unlocked from EE, so it can be used with a Three sim instead.
But this seems to have caused some problems...
I have no idea how this person has unlocked it, but now when I try to open a Banking App, its telling me it cant be used as the device is rooted...
why would the person that unlocked it have rooted it too? just seems weird!
My question is, if I was to follow This guide to unroot it, would I also loose the unlock to use any sim, as I will probably have to flash a stock EE rom back on to it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
cheers

You just need to flash a Stock Sammsung rom.Wich firmware have you now?When for example you.'re on 4.1.1 you need to find and flash true Odin Stock 4.1.2 firmware.This will remove the root.

Im not actually sure what version has been put on it to be honest, because it just looks like a stock rom to me, which is weird haha
It says its version 4.3.
So if I use Odin to flash this file... http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/38008/I9305XXUENH1_I9305EVRENH1_EVR.zip/
It should let me use banking apps, and also stay unlocked for any sim?
Cheers for your help!
Another option, would be to keep it rooted, install Xposed framework (which is great by the way) and then install Rootcloak.
Rootcloak lets you fool apps into thinking that the phone is not rooted.
I use it for some tv-streaming apps, which works quite well.

Tried giving this a go, but I cant get Xposed framework to install...
I just get a 'There was a problem while parsing the package" error :s
Its running Android 4.3 so it should be compatible.
Hi everyone! Yesterday I updated my new Sony E1 phone (D2005) to the latest firmware 20.1.A.2.19 with KitKat 4.4.2, and tried to root it with Root Genius 2.2.6: it worked! I just had to install first the ADB drivers shipped with FlashTool and then used Root Genius to root the device. It was as simple as that! I'd like to know if it was just me being lucky or this procedure can be applied to every E1.
Hello Atanor7,
thank you for information. I'll try this asap.
Do you flash a new rom or upgraded from previous one?
Did you remove Genius after boot? Don't install Genius too much bloatwares?
I upgraded from stock firmware via PC Companion (the phone is brand new, purchased yesterday, 70 euros!), then used Genius to root. It's a Windows program, so you have to install nothing on your device, just the ADB drivers on your PC (I used a VM to install so bloatware wasn't an issue for me). After rooting, Genius automatically installs Kinguser to manage root permissions.

As boatware, I spoke about Kinguser, supposed to be replaced by Supersu
another question: do you kept your settings after upgrade (apps, screens, sms, calls, wifi points, bt devices, ...)?
I can't tell you about that, the phone was new so didn't have any personalization yet, the only settings I made (WiFi, couple of apps) were kept.
Do you think I should replace Kinguser with SuperSU?
Ok, after reading about how KingUser could be a "tricky" app I switched to SuperSU: the "SuperSU-me" app from the store did the job quick and flawlessly. Thank you for your advice

Install this app from the Play Store: "Super-Sume" and run it. Hit the button and... it does it all, wipes Kinguser and replaces it with SuperSU, works like a charm!
Thank you for your advice Atanor7, I think I am late for that since I tried to use Super-Sume to replace Kinguser app but it didn't work on my case.
It's good to know that it worked on yours because next time if I reflash my phone I will try to use Super-Sume again.
in my case, I went for old fashion root after unsuccessful attempts on using Super-Sume, I flashed 20.1.A.29 then flashed back the kernel and root with towelroot then flashed back 20.1.A.29 kernel after rooted.

ok works for me, super-sume didn't ended (probably because supersu was still installed), but after closing app, kinguser was uninstalled without traces

Hello guys!
After bricking my first Xperia Z thanks to Xposed, I decided not to root my second XZ. Used stock for about a year till yesterday, when i decited to root with kingroot + script.
Everything went well, i am now rooted, managed to change the dpi and the font. Hurray!
Now, I'm trying to remove some bloatware without getting into bootloops after, but i do not know which is safe or not..
I did not install any recovery, rom is stock LP.
My question is if there is a list with the safe apk's to remove taking in consideration the way i rooted + no recovery work done.
Please excuse me if this is a wrong section and thank you in advance!

Well, there is a usual sense as to how to remove apps. Apps which you do not see icons on your drawer/dock are USUALLY A BIG NO. Apps which you do see on your dock/drawer can be removed safely , however, try not to remove camera, settings or such things.
If you can send me screenshots, I can easily tell you which are safe and which are not. Do understand sometimes the apks are odexed which means they need another apk to function fully so if you remove on apk, it might affect another.
This usually tells you which bloatware is safe to remove

How did you brick your device with xposed?. Just asking so I won't do the same
Not that much to tell.. I was on 4.4.2 i think and i rooted with Towel Root app.
After rooting, i installed xposed and busybox. When the phone asked to reboot, i clicked ok and the phone just died.. RIP.
I tried to bring it back to life but no success. Even sent it to a service center, but same result. I was very lucky that i could get it replaced with warranty.
So my advice is to be very careful what you do..
