A few days ago I rooted my Bionic with psouza4 one click root and it worked perfect the first time I tried it. After I rooted I started noticing a few issues (Every time i opened an app requiring SuperUser permissions, it would constantly tell me it was being granted SuperUser permissions, could not boot into recovery either with the bootstrap app or from ROM Manager)
Figuring it might've been because of a bad root, I unrooted and tried rooting again. Now every time I try to root again, it gets to the third step and I get an error saying "we have root but could not push su. Try unrooting first, then running root."
I've unrooted and tried rooting 4 times now and it keeps failing and giving me this error.
I was only rooted for a few days so I was stock rooted with all bloat and nothing frozen so I never deleted or modified anything except for gaining root the first time.
Thank you in advance for your help

Thanks, gonna go give it a shot.
Hello,
I just got a Note 3 from ATT. I tried rooting the phone using the Kingo program, but each time the root fails with the message: "FAILED.. NOT SUPPORTED"
Has anyone experienced this? What can i do?
I am reading about the Root de la Vega, but I am afraid I am on MJ5 firmware, so I am not sure whether it is advisable to use it.
Are there other reversible rooting methods (ie, without tripping KNOX)?
cheers, MN

I know when I did my phone it said failed. Did it two more times. Still said failed. The last time the phone had a disclaimer pop up, and the phone was rooted. So don't know how it worked but it worked. phone is rooted.
I was on mj5 and it worked fine. At the end of root it'll tell you failed if you don't grant it super user for a test but I didn't see any reason to allow it. Checked and I was rooted.

Thanks. I finally got it to work, by de-selecting (unchecking) the "developer option" that asks to "Verify apps via USB". Once I unchecked it, the process went succeeded. I guess this options was somehow preventing the super-user access. Anyhow, it worked, and I went ahead and rooted by wife's also.
Thanks for your responses - MN

I think I read somewhere that if the device has KitKat ... it will not root at all and at this time Kingo does not support kitkat for the GS Note 3
Gn3 on mj5
I have the GN3 on att
Rooted on mj5 using kingo worked fine
Unrooted using kingo.
Rooted again using kingo , still on mj5
Safestrap wiped data and cache, forgot to install rom.
Flashed stock MJ5 via Odin, phone boots fine. Flashed sec_csc.zip to fix the pen input error.
Performed several factory resets from device
No sim installed
USB debugging on
Unknown scources on
Verify apps off
USB verify apps off
Kingo root FAILS every time - (error notsupport)
What am I missing?
Which version of Kingo are you using? Did you flash the 28whatever.zip file after flashing the CSC file?
Try deleting the drivers and allowing them to reinstall

My option to uncheck Verify apps via debugger is greyed out an won't let me don anything with it. It does show up as uncheck, also the same in security. What should I try next?
Kingo root failed
Kingo root failed after remaining in the state of "Rooting" for a long time.
Mobile : Huawei HOL-U19.
Please help !!!
Kingo does not root kitkat you'll have to use towelroot.com. it works on the latest att update and most phones with kernel date July 2014 on down.

Curious to see if anyone else has lost root after the latest supersu update? Rebooting did not change anything. I'm unable to use any root apps (xposed, root explorer, etc).
Any ideas?
Thx!

You should tell is if you are using a root exploit (and which one), what android version you are on, and whether or not you are BL-Unlocked.
I can tell you that my unlocked devices had no issues updating SuperSU, and root apps still work fine.
(I'm guessing you are locked since your signature says "Status 0")....but please confirm.

Oh, great! So problem solved, or are you seeking a solution to work with the most recent SuperSU?
I would rather use supersu, but so long as super user from click clockworkmod works, its all the sane for me.
Thx for the reply though.
I had to uninstall supersu, install super user, attempt to install it, reboot, make sure have root access via root explorer, install xposed, install adaway, soft reboot.

Hi,
what can i use to root D405n with v20c-eur-xx android 5.0.2

Kingroot should work, you may want to replace it with SupetSu later, either flashing a custom ROM or using an script to remove kinguser and install SuperSU.

Kingroot worked, thanks, will check for replacement of kinguser
Oke tried to replace kinguser by supersu,
It worked, did replace but after restart stuck on lg logo.
Reflashed v20c and for now leave it with kinguser.
Has anybody tried anything else than kingroot with success? I don't want to use kingroot. I have exactly the same version and everything failed to root my phone. Thanks.
I have an n910t running 5.1.1., dok2. I tried rooting several times with chainfire for 5.1.1. through Odin. It goes through the process okay (or at least it seems to), and appears to work at first, but then I lose it. Root Checker verifies root, as does SuperSU, but after a few minutes it's gone. Ive installed Titanium Backup, AdAway, and AdBlock. For the most part, they don't recognize root. If they do (it takes a long time to recognize) they lose it shortly thereafter. Rebooting doesn't help. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. Anyone have any ideas??
Just looked now. For one example, SuperSU acknowledges AdAway, but when I try to fire up AdAway, it won't work, saying it doesn't have access.
Did you install twrp and did it ask after you booted to twrp if you wanted to root the device.. if so this was a no no.. your already rooted twrp just get a little confused with the new kernels... you must remove root and reinstall supersu and when it ask when you load twrp do not root but reboot do not swipe... unless there is an easier way this worked for me...
I had the same or a similar problem. I didn't lose root completely but at times various apps were unable to gain root (after previously getting it successfully). The phone would freeze while Titanium or Root Explorer for example were waiting fruitlessly for root to be granted. It was haphazard. One time the app would work and next time it wouldn't, or another wouldn't.
Finally it got so frustrating that I installed my favorite rom on it (Tekhd). Now all is stable. I was hoping to keep it stock rooted until mm came out but I couldn't figure out what was going on so I blew it away. I had twrp on it too and would always be prompted "root not detected" but if I allowed it to install SuperSu it would loop.

Thanks for the replies. I tried to install twrp once, but it kept freezing. Then I tried without it. Similar behavior outcomes either way.
I'm leaning toward just swapping out ROMS as this is very annoying. Isn't that a dangerous thing to attempt if root is so unstable though?

you need to odin the firmware for your phone and then restart fresh
without root twrp won't install rom you will get error..
Thanks. I did start fresh with stock firmware. Tried three times. Same result each time. I just reflashed to stock this morning. I'm actually using my old GS3 until I can figure this out. I'm on AT&T's network. I bought the T-Mobile variant just so I could root and possibly test drive a few custom ROMs. I'm ticked that even root has been elusive so far!
Any other suggestions?

Make sure your using a none corrupt download and when flashing root and twrp never let the phone restart to android screen... after you root and cf autoroot reboots hold down the buttons to boot into download mode and flash twrp.. make sure to get the .tar for 3.0 twrp.. if you need it i can post and once in DL mode flash twrp and then again do not boot the phone fully boot to twrp before and make backup if needed and when it ask after your done in twrp if you wanna root do not root in twrp... if this does not work i'm not sure what else it could be ... i have rooted my note 4 five times in the last month tring different things and it has happan one time to me and i had to odin firmware...
Thanks! I'll give that a try when I get home today.

You rock!! It seems that took care of it. I went through the process last night, but wanted to wait a bit to see if any issues surfaced. So far, it's been perfect. Thank you!!

Or as is the case with some roms, if an app takes to long to get supersu permission, especially after a reboot, all u have to do is open the supersu app then open the app u want root for.

I had tried that. It was very sluggish, and would frequently drop root access altogether. Since following S5Sickness's advice it's been solid, however.
