Own a Huawei P10
EMUI 5.1
Android 7.0
Last time I tried kingoroot and it failed. I think it maybe half way root but not completed. I left it and forgot about it. This was many years ago.
I tried kingoroot again today and it still fails (both PC & Android ways). I tried Towelroot. It just hangs.
I tried searching about P10 and seems others get same problem/issues too?
Is there any other ways to root?

I used the towelroot method last June (I think) to root my AT&T Note 3. Stupid me, accidentally deleted Magazine rather than freezing it. Ever since, I keep getting Touchwhiz has stopped working with the OK prompt at various intervals. no matter what; when I receive a new email, It gives me the email has stopped working routine. I can hit the OK button and tap my email icon and access my email without a problem.
I tried reinstalling Magazine and Lounge, but that didn't help. Now; as of Friday; the latest update of Kies fails to read my phone.
I've read so many different causes and solutions, and tried nearly all of them that made any sense, but to no avail. I've searched the forum, and Googled it for months now, but haven't found a solution.
Last ditch effort is to be scolded and told how stupid I am (which I already know) and to search the forum, which I have and found multiple hits. Most with a different solution, but, so far; no fix.
Sorry. Edited to include: AT&T Note 3 SM-900A Ver. 4.4.2 N900AUCCUCN2 Build KOT 49H.N900AUCUCNC2
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance!
Fix
So I would suggest a complete wipe and using Odin to go back to a full stock install. The link below will walk you through it and you have to use the individual files and not the all in one, but it should fix the issues. You wont have Root anymore but I have found you can get a lot of the things you wanted root for without it now.

Link appears to be broken.
I need root access. If I flashed back to stock ROM, couldn't I re-root with towelroot and be a little more careful this time?
I've done that exact thing before
So, I acquired my GT P1000L quite recently (like, 4 days ago), and I started to look for methods on how to upgrade it from 2.3.6 to kitkat 4.4.4. And after hundreds of forums and threads, I finally found one that worked for me. Managed to install CwM recovery, CF root (A big problem that I'll explain later), and proceeded to install everything.
After a lot of cold sweat, since it was my first time doing this kind of upgrade, finally the Cyanogemod logo showed up, took 2 minutes to load everything, and it asked me to choose the language...And my sadness started when I discovered my touch screen stopped working.
So, after crying on the corner like a little kid, I found a tutorial on how to go "restock", I guess that's what is called, rolling all the way back to 2.3.6, Which didn't take that long, everything good and dandy, when I discovered 2 major reasons why it didn't work for me.
1: The CF Root that I used, only works with P1000, not P1000L (at least is what some people in the cf thread said), and CF was the reason why my touch screen stopped working.
So I decided to go back and see if I missed something, and saw a small warning saying that I should at least have CM 10.2 before upgrading to CW 11 (the one for kitkat 4.4.4). And that led me to my second problem, find a ROOT and instal CWM mod and go to 10.2.
So I searched, and found demonlord V4 (I think that's it), root, and tried it...And boom. The Root failed, and I was like WTF?
And when I decided to check the root's log, it said that some folders were protected, read only files (Something that never happened before). So I decided to try another root, Kingo root, and to my surprise, ROOT Failed again.
Tried ADB, Qatbd, none of them seem to work.
How can I root my device again? Or at least remove the read only protection?
The same happened to me! I still working to make my root work again! Anybody that can help us?????!!!!!!!

My note 4 was bought used, no warranty. When I bought it, it was rooted, but no custom rom, worked great. Once lollipop came out, I wiped and returned to non-root and was able to get the update through tmobile. Didn't bother rerooting as things were ok. Marshmallow udpate came, and I noticed a lot of screen lag. Less than a week ago, tmobile did some sort of update and now, the phone shuts off and restarts on it's own, has very slow screen response (nothing, and then tries to do the same function 10 times in a row, messaging is very slow, types the same words several times over). I did a factory re-set twice. Once, I reloaded all my favorite apps, etc. still bad, so then I did factory reset but did not add anything or bring in my contacts, etc. I am planning on buying the note 7 in a 3-4 months, but in the meantime, would like to continue to use my note 4. I tried doing the rooting method using odin, it appeared to work ok (got the successful notice), triggered the knox thing, but..when I use a root checker, it says phone is not rooted. I am hoping that by rooting and putting a new rom on there I can fix this thing in the interim. So..suggestions on what to do next? Let me know what additional information you need. Could it be the phone itself and not the software? Suggestions on a cheap interim phone? links to relevant threads also appreciated. Is there a better way to wipe everything and start new that I am did not do? I did a factory reset. I have two batteries, which I changed out intermittently to see if it as a bad battery.

You need to give more information on what you did to root. What version is your phone, what files did you odin, and did you flash SuperSU?
more info

No to supersu? it's sm N910t, I think what finally worked what odin 3.9 version and flashed the stock that is meant to go with this particular phone to downgrade it down to lollipop. The first few times, I got fail with Odin, but realized that I had marked the option on the phone to keep it from being wiped/flashed if someone found it, once I got that off, I got a successful message. I used the following link and did all of the things mentioned on a link that I am too newbie to be allowed to post, apparently.
but it goes with 3.7 odin, flash the stock firmware from the phone model, and get to the reset button, if successul and then supersu appears.
I got as far as step 8, with odin showing the green 'reset'. But when I went back to the phone, I did not have supersu.
I've tried to do it again, but I get 'fail'

I installed KingRoot through the Supertool, after downgrading from 5.3.2 . I've tried rooting maybe a dozen times, it reboots at 16% and then says root failed, no strategy now at 30%. Any Suggestions? Thanks!

- make sure WiFi is enabled during root attempts
- deregister device from Amazon, reboot, try again
- if no lucky try a different version of KingRoot. Success has been reported with 4.85, 4.92 and 4.96
- avoid 5.x series as uninstalling (required for custom rom) is problematic

Hey guys,
Also having the same issue and have followed all of Davey's steps already. I'm generally pretty savvy (have rooted multiple other devices and done other similar processes without issues), but I've tried over and over again without fail. Definitely on 5.3.1, at my wit's end. Thanks!
EDIT: Retried over and over again with 4.96 after posting, and after 4 hours of retries, it finally worked. So I guess I still don't know why it took so long, but keep trying if you have the same issue!

desktop kingroot 3.2.0 is what works for me and you might have windows rot as that is what gave me nightmares when following these xda tutorials. with desktop you dont have to turn tablet online and risk nasty O.T.A.
if its not windows rot (no specific order but this is what got mine re-rooted ehen had trouble)
delete and reinstall king root 3.2.0 desktop (use IOBIT uninstaller since kingroot seems to stop working after re-rooting or lots failed attempts)
recovery and reflash stock rom
recovery and wipe data
recovery and wipe cache
Hi all.
Sorry if my english is fawlty, it is not my original language.
I'm writing as the least tech-retarded of my colleagues, and hope you will bare with me.
I'm trying to move a user app to system app on a Sony Xperia Z1, Android 5.1.1 (with no extra SD-card)
(Long story short, the daughter of a colleague is getting leg-extending surgery, and will most likely not be able to move around as much as she used to, playing here favourite game; Pokemon Go. We are trying to help her cheat (terrible role models, I know), so that she can spoof for the next 4 to 9 months, when pains are to much)
I've spend days searching for guides online - and found a bunch as well. But it just won't work.
I root the phone using KingRoot or KingoRoot. Root checker afterwards tells me that all is fine.
I've tried guides from this forum, highonandroid, isunshare.com and several more (beeing a new user, I'm not allowed to link in my posts)
Between each failed attempt, I repair the phone to stock rom, using Xperia Companion via PC.
Every time it fails when trying to move the GPS-app to system app. I get errors saying that the operation is not permitted.
Is there something, specific to the Z1 that needs to be "unlocked" in order to make this work
(Since the goal is to allow her, to play PoGo, I also need to remove the root afterwards, since Niantic doesn't allow playing on rooted devices.)
Kingroot was to blame
Hi again.
I finally made it work. Tried an older version of kingroot (v 4.6) and then everything worked like a charm. Apparently something went wrong when using to newest version of Kingroot
