Ok, i am in the soak test for ATT Kitkat 4.4.2 (XT1058). I reverted back to stock, and took the OTA update.
I have an unlocked bootloader, so i mfastboot flashed TWRP recovery 2.6.3.1 with success
i've tried unofficial TWRP 2.7.0.0, and philz_recovery w/ no luck
I flashed supersu (via zip) v 1.89 and v 1.93, recovery reported success
Reboot, Supersu is not in my app drawer. I installed Supersu via playstore with success, installed "binary" with reported success.
Tried Superuser from Clockword Mod, no luck
Supersu crashed upon launching Titanium Backup w/ TB hanging.
It appears Supersu is not installed correctly.
What am i missing? Installing Supersu should be the easiest thing on an unlocked bootloader.

Hey, I just rooted a 4.4 the other day. I doubt it is much different. I flashed Official TWRP, made a backup, went to reboot system. TWRP then prompted me to root, I said yes, then installed SuperSu from play store

Followed them, still nothing. Basic Root Checker confirms no root. I used Terminal Emulator, and tried the su command, and it hangs up. Does SuperSU need an update??
Confirmed via ES File Explorer that Superuser.apk is in the /system/app folder.
Any other suggestions?

would a factory reset help!
That thread has the exact versions of TWRP and SuperSU that I used to root, and countless others have rooted theirs on 4.4.2 as well using that process.
So I'm not sure what to say other than make sure you are using those versions from that thread (down load them again if you have to). And go into SuperSU, under settings, make sure default access is set to PROMPT, and remove anything that might be listed under Apps, reboot the phone, and try the root checker or other app that needs root again.
Another option is to un-install SuperSU via android's App Manager, reboot into TWRP, and try installing SuperSU again

That did it, apparently i have 2 versions installed, and uninstalled one of them, then it fired right up. Thanks for the tip!
Unable to install root without twrp installed. Unable to install twrp by known oneclick method as pc screen says done and to pull battery, yet phone shows nothing in progress bar and "0" processed. Have done this many times to no avail including assuming it worked and pulled battery and tried recovery with only OEM recovery working.
Am using T-Moble lgg4 H81120i v.6.0 done by OTA update. Am running windows 8.1 with antivirus off and all drivers installed and running.

Hello everyone. I have rooted the G4 LS991 (SPRINT), have SuperSU, and was going about installing TWRP because I want marshmallow, android 6.0 version. I used flashify and the TWRP . Flashify seemed to install image correctly, but upon rebooting into recovery, I got a "Secure Boot Error 1003" and then a reboot to normal operation. . what can I do now?, can I do factory reset with that error ?
model: lg g4 ls991 zv6
thanks!
You can't install TWRP on any US variant phone so that's why you are getting that error. There is no flashable recovery or custom roms for this phone. Stay on ZV6 if you want to keep root. I'm pretty sure you can restore the recovery partition to stock and it will fix your issue.

You have to restore factory image. I hope you backed it up with flashify.
Sorry but wow
Hi,
I have an old L90-D415-w7 that was rooted at one time and has Android 6.0.1 CyanogenMod 13.0.20161122-NIGHTLY-w7 installed. Somehow back then I had root access, but I don't seem to have it now. Cyanogen's recovery is also installed. For some reason, an older version of KingRoot is installed as a system app.
I'd like to get root access back, and either install stock firmware, or Lineage since CyanogenMod is no more. I can't seem to get root access back, nothing works, and while I can boot into recovery, I can't seem to do anything from there. I'd like to install the latest TWRP and knock out Cyanogen recovery as well.
So far I've tried:
LG Mobile Support Tool - Can't seem to get access
LG Root Script v1.2 - Hangs after reboot to download mode (never continues from Looking for LG serial port, phone rebooted holding Vol Up, displays "fastboot: processing commands")
Kingroot 4.9.6 (System App) - Fails
KingRoot Android 5.05 - Fails
KingRoot PC 3.5 - Fails
TowelRoot - Fails
LG L90 Utilities - Crashes
Can anyone help me out or is this phone in a screwed state and I should just pitch it?
Thanks!
use a kdz file to restore your phone first. Check in the forum for root methods that are available to the different versions then decide which kdz to flash.
Hey everyone I just recently got a Moto X Pure with TWRP recovery already installed and the bootloader unlocked, unrooted. The phone was stuck on Marshmallow so I went to update and it would take me to TWRP recovery every time and when I reboot back into the system, I'm still stuck on Marshmallow. So I downloaded an app that would make me download OTA updates while still having TWRP recovery but it needed root access, which I didn't have. I tried all of the one-click root apps but non worked then I stumbled across an easy root method: ( oops it said I can't post links, but basically I downloaded a supersu zip and flashed it) which I followed very precisely and I'm pretty sure I did nothing wrong. But when I flashed the ZIP using TWRP and booted back into system it was stuck on the Motorola logo which I'm assuming is bootloop. I was going to download a stock recovery using fastboot but I discovered that it would relock the bootloader, which would render the device useless to me so I can't. I also tried wiping the Dalvrik Cache but it always failed. I'm new to all of this so please guys I'm desperate for help. Thanks in advance
