Download:

Connect device in fastboot mode (blue LED).
Open Command prompt and type:
fastboot flash system system_xps_prerooted_63fw.img
This will give you root immediatly after reboot!
A nicer way will come soon. But this should solve first problems

If you get market problems go ot Settings -> Apps -> ... -> Search for the market in the list and then delete Data of the App. After that all will work fine.

I know roughly what you are talking about. I know command prompt, although I never used fastboot, as I only owned X10 (until I dropped it and USB port snapped ), so never had to/wanted to unlock bootloader this way. But I want to learn, that's why I am reading all this now, and I need to ask about something I am not sure of.

Just go through the unlock bootloader process and then you will know what fastboot is
After that just type my comamnd with my file in the same directory and you will be done.
Regards

If I were you I would wait till I get ICS on the phone then unlock the bootloader and root the phone.

Quick question. It just wonders me. Sony "supports" unlocking bootloader, which is more dangerous than root. Why rooting is not supported then? Is it because we could unistall third party aplications and Sony has some sort of agreements with them and are obligated by law?

No you are getting the idea wrong
Long ago we discussed alot with SonyEricsson and together decided this is the best way of doing it.
The reason is simple:
Rooting alone does not give you access to all partitions etc. pp See X10 Forums for that. Sony is very good in hiding partitions
With a bootloader unlock we get fully workable fastboot. We are able to write all partitions and change what we want. (Root too)
Also Sony(Ericsson) is able to track who unlocks and who not AND is able to provide a check mechanism to forbid unlocking of phones which are not owned by the user (for example provider branded phones in contract, the phone is usually property of the provider).
So this is the reason. Unlocked bootloader gives us nearly full access, so no need to worry I am in this game since X10 times (like you or not ?)and we always got the phones working like we wanted.
Our work for CM9 on XPS has started now too.

See, I was not aware of that "agreement". Now everything seems to make sense. I am android user since I bought X10 back in August 2010. I was more or less following XDA since then as well, but this forum is worldwide community and is almost imposible to keep a track on everything. I would consider myself somewhere between rookie and advanced users. I know how to do certain things (root, how to use ADB, I was changing framwork_res.apk for my own purposes, etc.). My point also is, I am more hardware sort of guy, rather than software. That's why I am glad you guys are here with us.

Will this wipe the phone data or only the system partition ?

Well no. But the first step is that you need to unlock bootloader and THIS WILL wipe your data. To flash the systempartition itself will not wipe userdata.
Cholek3 said:
Yes, I agree. But myself, I will wait for root for phones with locked bootloader as well. I assume I will be happy with phone speed, but when CM9 comes out, then I will consider unlockin bootloader.

So you restored with Titanium. Since Titanium is a Root app and you don't had Root before i think you are trying to restore a backup from another phone.
If you do that you have to assure that you ONLY RESTORE APPS and NOT SETTINGS! Settings from another phone will be most likely incompatible.
So this wil be your problem!

I don't think it will, otherwise somebody would already confirmed that I think. At the moment the only way is to flash appropriate firmware (only with unlocked bootloader).

to whom it concern for call recorder over this rom works like a charm both sides very clear and great loud
just use callrecorder by SKVALEX(green color) from market with choosing recording calls from kernel with 2 way recording patch(root required) option

[Q] Mt6573 cannot root, google play not working

I got an HTC One X bootleg from China and the google play apk I installed does not work at all. I understand, I need to root it so I can install a modified version of google play. I've tried every way possible to root it using bin4ry, gingerbreak, doomlord and superoneclick to no avail.
All I wanted was to make google play work that's it. Is there anybody who can extend help? Thanks in advance...

Do you have your bootloader unlocked?
Do you have your Google account activated?
Are you 100% positive that your One X is genuine?
Which G Play are you trying to install? How re you trying to do that?
Please provide some additional info.

I don't know anything about bootloader. Sorry.
I do know I have a valid google account.
No, I was fully aware that my device is just a clone.
I downloaded the latest version of google play apk. I downloaded it to my sd card then installed it manually.

Hold volume down and power to get to bootloader. Take a pic of it, then select recovery, take a pic of that too.

Hi, thank you for trying to help, but I checked that and it is installed in xbin, but I was looking on some other sites and found out that i just half rooted my phone which means no system changes just root app installing. After that I was little sad, but after that continued search for full rooting and readed that it's need to unlock bootloader,...I was searching for that and typed in *#*#73...#*#* and followed instructions and saw that it is not possible to unlock bootloader, so is there any way for that to be fixed or not? By the way I used rootfix and it passed test(if that were test, but it passed).
P.S.: I also followed instruction on their official bootloader unlocking site and I was trying to ignore that, that step is not workink, downloaded all programs, and other stuff and used CMD and entered fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce oem unlock 0xkey and it said it is not allowed, (I inserted my key that I got from them).

Wrong section, please repost in the Q&A section, thanks

There is no way to unlock the bootloader if it is not allowed
Did you run the root fix just once?

2 times, and I accidently itegrated g+ and it uninstalled every app that was binded to it, lost play store, chrome, gmail, google play, and I flashed a stock rom but it was for India and now got some apps that I don't want in my phone but can't uninstall them....and I updated system to latest version that is 15.4.a.0.23 and android 4.3 JB, and what is worst I can't find usb debug.Sry for bothering you....and is it possible because I took it from store that is SIM operator (don't know exact word for it, but I can only use one sim operator, networ lock I guess)...Thank you for your time and please forgive me for veisting your time....

For usb debugging you need to go to settings>about then scroll down to build number and keep tapping build number until a popup says you are now a developer then developer menu will be in settings.
Sim lock has nothing to do with bootloader so unlocking it to any carrier will not unlock bootloader
At the minute there is no possible way to unlock the bootloader if it is not allowed on the device

Can you be more specific with your request. Are you unable to log into google accounts but gapps or present ? Or you dont even have google apps and you want to have google account ? If you often get that duplicate provider authority issue, then it is better you switch to a custom rom floating in XDA. May be the Kinghunki's sense 2.00 rom with 1.45.708.1 update or some backups available (asian indian version and dubai versions) for you to choose from and install it.
For your chinese recovery problem. follow the below steps, which requires unlocked bootloader.
Is your phone unlocked by any chance ? My guess is it should have been, if that is the case then download the custom recovery from the following link http://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=16920 and install using "fastboot flash recovery philz_touch_6.48.4-a5.img" command in the fastboot mode. If you are unaware of the fastbooting process, follow the tutorial from the below link but use the recovery from the above link and the command I have given. This will install the latest phil touch recovery from this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/desire-816/orig-development/recovery-philz-touch-recovery-t2824086
http://www.editandroid.com/how-to-root-and-install-cwm-recovery-in-htc-desire-816/ and then follow the instructions to install the custom english recovery.
If your mobile is not rooted, use the rooting files given in the tutorial as well.
Let me know if you have any troubles. All these tutorials appear bigger process, if you are the first timer or dont know what you are doing. But eventually they will work.
Hit thanks button at the bottom of this post, if you think I helped you a bit. All the best.

[ROOT] New Root method & BL Unlock for 5.0.x!!! OTA Supported!!!

Hey all,
For starters, disclaimer:
I am not responsible for thermonuclear war, bricks, and or your parents grounding you for said brick.
This method is VERY finicky, and very hard to reproduce. I cannot promise anything. It worked for me.
You need to download the following apks:
- KingRoot (Newest available on kingroot.net)
- KingUser (Newest available on kingroot.net)
- SunShine (3.0+, available @ theroot.ninja)
Once you have downloaded all of these apk files, follow the below steps:
1. Go to Settings ==> Security ==> Check "Allow Installation of Apps from Unknown Sources" and agree to the prompt.
2. Go to Settings ==> About ==> Software Info ==> Tap "Build Number" 12 Times.
3. Go to Settings ==> Developer Options ==> Check "USB Debugging"
4. Now install all the APK files by clicking on them.
5. Ensure you are connected to a reliable WiFI network.
6. Ensure you have Location Services/GPS and High Accuracy turned on in Settings.
7. Open KingRoot and select "Try to Root" when prompted.
8. Now, wait for it to complete. We don't expect KingRoot to succeed! We only expect it to display a prompt and then fail! If it reboots, you need to reopen KingRoot and try again.
Keep closing (through your Recent Apps Menu) and re-opening/re-running KingRoot until you get a prompt that says "Google cannot verify this app, would you like to Install KingUser?" click "Install" any similar message will work, i.e. "Google recommends you not install this app, would you like to install KingUser?" but a similar message must display, if it doesn't display, re-run KingRoot.
9. After the message goes away, and KingRoot fails, close the app, and open KingUser.
10 Verify that KingUser says you are rooted.
At this point, you are temp-rooted. You cannot write to the /System partition. You can only use apps that don't require /System access (very few).I recommend you cough up the $25 for SunShine. Only follow the instructions from here if you have $25 and want to unlock your boot loader, go S-OFF, and get Permanent Root & R/W /System Access.
11. Now, open SunShine and follow the on screen prompts, grant it SU access when prompted. It will reboot (Do not re-open SunShine as instructed after reboot!!!).
12. Repeat the steps 7-9 outlined above to re-gain temp-root.
13. NOW re-Open Sunshine and follow the on-screeen prompts.
Congrats! You are S-OFF, Unlocked, and your warranty bit returns an "OFFICIAL" status in bootloader mode. Now to install TWRP.
14. Download TWRP from here: http://android.cmphys.com/twrp-m7vzw/ ON YOUR PC/MAC/LINUX BOX
Make sure to use this and not the stock TWRP build! The stock TWRP build doesn't have full Lollipop encryption support (as of 5/29/15).
15. Reboot to bootloader with the volume buttons, or use ADB to reboot to bootloader.
16. Plug your phone into your PC and verify you see it when you run "fastboot devices" from CMD/Terminal.
17. Run "fastboot flash recovery /pathtotwrpimghere/nameoftwrpimg.img".
18. Run the volume buttons to select "Recovery".
19. Download the flashable SuperSU .zip for 2.46 and transfer it to your phone while in TWRP.
20. Install the SuperSU .zip from TWRP and reboot.
21. Uninstall KingUser.
You are rooted and S-OFF. Enjoy your ROMs/Kernels freely.
This method is highly finicky. It worked for me, and it can for you! it took me about an hour to get KingRoot to display the message asking to install KingUser. Just keep trying!
Good Luck!!!

Anyone else get this to work?

In fact, all I had to do was download KingRoot and it actually successfully rooted my phone. I checked Root checker just in case and it says Root access is properly installed.

You won't have true write protection disabled until you turn s-off if you haven't already. Other wise apps you remove and settings you change with root will revert each time you reboot.

This is true. With these phones, root itself is almost moot. S=off is what I really want. Sure u can use titanium backup, but u CANT remove system apps, change boot animations, edit build.prop, etc... All because of.the built in write protection which u need s=off for... Ppl need to just bite the bullet and get sunshine. I got it the day it finally came out for us (back on 4.4.2) and been thankful for it every day since...

How many times did you guys have to run KingRoot? And do you run it to completion each time? I've run it at least 10 times on my device, it fails every time, and I have yet to see a prompt as described in the OP.

Now I'm having this problem. I kept running kingroot, then it rebooted on me and told me I couldn't try to run it any more. So I uninstalled it thinking that would clear the problem.

So very sorry for my ignorance As I am going to get the cell phone craze and then the smartphone craze.
The last cell phone I owned took a team of mules to take the battery.
Please tell me what the term ruu means.
My interest is to completely or near completely "gut" my Verizon note 4 in my US Cellular note 4 and then be able to install single or multi boot systems, hopefully using modular Code
That would be either less than typical roms then I read about here or else very streamlined roms only data that would support the main operating system and whatever hardware is installed. I certainly wouldn't want to end up with S OFF and routed machines that I could then install stock or custom-written Apps, software firmware and Code whatever else kind I may desire. well I remain hopeful that many will tell me this is not a problem even so it's all tells me it is impossible I will remain confident of success As I am convinced tenacity is more powerful than all the smarts in the world as well as a good looks fast runners sweet talkers and even possibly the best Coders out there that may only lack that one trait named tenacity. if there's another post about this anymore please get me to that.

I certainly wouldn't want to end up with S OFF and routed machines that I could then install stock or custom-written Apps, software firmware and Code whatever else kind I may desire. well I remain hopeful that many will tell me this is not a problem even so it's all tells me it is impossible I will remain confident of success As I am convinced tenacity is more powerful than all the smarts in the world as well as a good looks fast runners sweet talkers and even possibly the best Coders out there that may only lack that one trait named tenacity. if there's another post about this anymore please get me to that.
Thank you in advance we anticipated cooperation and kindness, I remain.

Unfortunately most of us in this section won't be able to help. Your best bet is going to the Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note 4 section. Coming for help with your note 4 in an HTC section is like asking some people who know Chevy if they could help you fix your Ford. The expert advise would be ask the Ford experts and not the Chevy experts.
RUU is a term for HTC phones: Rom Update Utility. Samsung devices use Odin and I have no idea how to use it. I would help if I could.
The correct area for your device:

What does the repair phone option do? And I guess I wasn't too clear. My phone, for the most part, is fine. Everything works fine *except* that KingRoot won't install correctly. All my other apps are fine.
