Did you try running the supeonclick application from within the zip itself. sometimes that helps.....
this is the exact same method used for rooting the Moto Fire XT 530 and is very simple.
Is that it can work to root the Motorola Defy mini (Xt320) ?
I have try but "software update tool" doesn't detect my phone.
Sorry for my bad english, i'm french!
Thank you
UPDATE: Method works. Rooted my Defy XT with 2.3.7 on it. Confirmed with Root Checker App from Android Market.
Problem mentioned earlier was due to the version of .Net installed on my machine. Thanks.
I'm getting the following error on my windows 7 machine for SUT LR when I try to run it after installation.
'"An attempt was made to load a program with an incorrect format. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007000B)"
Also, can you tell me the version of Android on your phone. Coz I have 2.3.7 on my XT thought superoneclick did not work with 2.3.7.
Thanks.

You must be running x64 bit verson of Windows 7 It wont work on 64 bit OS. You can install vmware in windows 7 and run a Windows XP as a VM in it....then it will work fine and Sut LR will do its job. Worked for me

Right, but no need for VMWare. I just downloaded SUT LR from another source which had a 64 bit version. Worked like a charm.

Okay, ive been doing my research, and I lasted aprox. 4-5 days and its sadly to know but this phone (HTC Evo Design 4G / Kingdom / Hero S) doesnt have that much of fame. But I was crazy trying and trying alot of methods trying to root my phone, but just couldnt. I was about to give up, until I found a Guide, and made it possible for me to root the phone, so I decided to share this guide to you guys, to who ever has a HTC Evo Design 4G / Kingdom / Hero S. Credits go to LOLINTERNET who wrote this guide. :good:
Ok, here we go. :laugh:
In order to root your Evo Design you'll need to unlock your bootloader, flash recovery, flash su binary, and install superuser and busybox. In this guide I will try to explain these steps as simply as I can. My goal is for it to be thorough enough that anyone that reads it can root their phone and enjoy the full benefits of this nifty little phone.
First and foremost, you will need to install the Java SE Development Kit. You won't use this directly in any way, but you need it in order to install the Android SDK.
Click Here To Download SDK
After installing the Java JDK, you will have to install the Android SDK which contains two tools that are essential to gaining root. They are adb (Android Debug Bridge) and fastboot. These tools are used to send files to your phone from a Windows command prompt. You will need these tools to unlock your bootloader and flash recovery.
Click Here to Download Android SDK
Instructions on installing the SDK
How to add packages to the SDK
Once you have the Java JDK and the Android SDK installed you will need to install the proper drivers for your phone. This one is pretty straightforward and necessary for your phone to be recognized while plugged into your computer. After you have the HTC drivers installed you can begin the fun parts, but first you will need a few things. :good:
HTC Drivers CREDITS TO: CNexus
You will need a recovery.img. 2fast4u88's unofficial ClockWorkMod Recovery version 5.0.2.7 and 5.0.2.8 are the only two recoveries I have used since I got my Evo Design. Many thanks to him for putting in so much work to get this device where it is today.
Download Recovery
Also, you'll need su binary version 3.0.3.2 efghi. This is the actual file that will root your device. It is a flashable .zip file that you save to your sdcard and flash in recovery. You'll be amazed at how easy this step is.
Download for su binary version 3.0.3.2 efghi
Download for su binary version 3.0.7 efghi
3.0.3.2 binary is for Gingerbread and 3.0.7 is for ICS
The superuser app is like the control center for apps that request root permissions after you're finally rooted. You will need to install this app and then Busybox, both of which can be found in the Google Play Store. After installing the Busybox app you will need to actually install busybox. The app itself is basically an installer for Linux applets that are required by root apps such as Titanium Backup and Root Explorer among many others.
Now that you have a basic overview of what it is you will be doing and the files need to do it, the only thing left is to actually perform these steps and root your device. So, lets do this!
1. Unlock your bootloader at htcdev.com. You will need to sign up and you will be warned that unlocking your bootloader will void your warranty. Once you've followed all instructions at the website an unlock token will be emailed to you. DO NOT DELETE THIS FILE. You can place it in the platform tools folder of the Android SDK and use fastboot in command prompt to relock and unlock your bootloader whenever you like. Also, anytime you unlock your bootloader all data will be wiped so be sure you sync all your contacts and backup other information first before performing this step.
2. After unlocking your bootloader you will need to flash a recovery.img. The manual way to flash recovery is to place the downloaded recovery.img for 2fast4u88's unofficial ClockWorkMod recovery port of version 5.0.2.7 in the platform-tools folder of the Android SDK. Power down your phone but be sure that Fast Boot in Power under the settings menu is unchecked or it will just reboot normally instead of into bootloader (also called hboot) like you want. After it's been powered down for a minute or two, press and hold Volume down then press and hold the power button. When the white HTC splash screen appears you can let go. Scroll down with the volume down button and select fastboot by pressing power. Plug your phone into your computer and open a command prompt, then run these commands without quotations.
"cd C:\android\platform-tools" (This is where adb and fastboot live. It may be different for you depending on where you installed the SDK. I always suggest installing it to the root of your C: drive.)
"fastboot flash recovery recovery.img"
Should only take a few seconds, then you have yourself a recovery partition and you can proceed to the next step after rebooting. Yay!
3. Next, we're going to flash the su binary in recovery. First, you'll need to place it on your sdcard. Doesn't matter where exactly just as long as you can find it. I would suggest the root of your sd just to make things easier on yourself. After you have the su binary zip saved to your sdcard power off your phone and boot into hboot. Now, I can't remember which, but either hboot or fastboot will have an option to boot into Recovery. Once you're booted into recovery, select "install zip from sdcard," then "choose zip from sdcard." Scroll down and find the su binary then select it. Pressing the Up Vol button will take you directly to the end if you don't want to scroll all the way through. After selecting the su binary zip select "yes" to flash. It's a small file, so it won't take long. When it's done select "reboot to system" and we'll move on to the next step because you just rooted your phone.
4. But, you're not done yet. You need to install the superuser app and the busybox app in that order. This is the easy part because both apps are free in the Play Store. Install Superuser, then Busybox. You shouldn't have to interact with the Superuser app, but if you want to set an automatic response to apps that request root you can open it and go to Preferences. Scroll down and you should see a few options. I have mine set to automatically grant su permission to apps that request it because I have no reason not to lol. I also unchecked the option to receive a notification every time an app is granted root permission because that junk just gets annoying. Next, after you install the Busybox app, you'll need to actually install Busybox. The app is merely an installer for the actual Busybox applets that govern root apps. The app should open automatically after you install it. You should see it in your notification bar. Open it up and follow the prompts. When you're done, reboot your phone.
5. Check If you have rooted your phone successfully, download Root Checker on Play Store.
6. Congratulations! You should now have a rooted Evo Design 4G. Enjoy. I hope this guide is both complete and comprehensive enough that everyone can enjoy the benefits of having a rooted device, but if I've missed something or if you have any questions whatsoever, please post them here and I will do my best to answer them in a timely manner. I hope you enjoy rooting your device, but please be careful. You now have administrator privileges, so use them wisely. I would highly suggest installing Quick Boot from the Play Store so that you can boot into recovery easily without having to go through hboot. I would also suggest using your newly installed app that requires root access to boot into recovery and make a backup. If anything should ever happen to your phone's system and data you will have a backup and can restore it to that state. Again, I hope you enjoy. I apologize for this being such a lengthy guide, but hopefully you understand the wonderful world of Android a little better for having read it. :good:
*EXTRA* 7. I recommend doing a backup via recovery of your phone, because this phone doesnt seem to have any roms or any stock roms etc, so i recommend making a backup, but dont worry, ill try to make a backup ROM so there could be one on the internet, because I searched and could find one! :s
Great post Julio. I saw this post somewhere else but I could not remember were.
Will this work on a Freedompop version of this phone?
THe evo design 4g FreedomPop version IS supposed to be already rooted. But when I try to load SU from the app store it says su binaries are out of date. Will flashing these binaries do the trick for it to accept it?
If it is rooted, do you think all I need to do is update that damned su binaries file?
Hope you still visit this site because those are my first questions towards doing some goodness towards my Evo!
Hope to catch you later.

Gracias Julio
It was quite tedious to be honest. But reading your guide and this one how-to-unlock-the-bootloader-of-any-htc-device en cultofandroid I finally was able to root my phone. Thank you so much!
Amazing
This is the best guide I have ever found. It was fluid and easy to understand for me. Just went from my JB IPhone 5 (cellular happened to break). now i have this phone lol (but its so slow and useless I decided to root and it was an unbelievable pain.. nothing worked). Then I found your guide which is fantastic, completely like no other. I am very impressed with it and just wanted to say THANK YOU!!!!!! :good:
So Close PLEASE can you help.
I followed this guide about a year ago & got to the image you see linked h**p://i.imgur.com/zfle9n7.jpg To be blunt I do not recall where I left off in the rooting process except to say I'm dead ended. Where did my efforts go wrong and what do I need to do in order to finally get this rooted? Also please tell me what bearing info in this thread: h**p://forums.androidcentral.com/htc-evo-design-4g/142434-s-off-s.html may have on my results. THANK YOU
This tutorial will teach you how to root, install a custom recovery and deodex the ROM on your Mediatek processor smartphone. You can use this tutorial for other Android devices too, Lenovo or not.
I myself own a Lenovo A390 and I have rooted, installed recovery and deodexed using these software tools, without any pain. And I assure you, it will be extremely rare that anything can go wrong. And you don't need a computer to root or install recovery-yes, you can do it on your phone itself.
But let's get some things straight:
1. Rooting/installing recovery voids your warranty.
2. If you're not using a Lenovo device or a device that runs on a MediaTek processor, I recommend that you search for a version of recovery appropriate for your processor.
3. The chances of damaging your phone using these tools is extremely rare, trust me, but in case anything goes wrong, I, OR THE DEVELOPERS OF THESE TOOLS, OR XDA-DEVELOPERS WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY INTERNAL/EXTERNAL DAMAGE TO YOUR PHONE.
How to root your Lenovo a390:
1. Download Framaroot: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2130276 Note: Framaroot may not work on all Android devices. Please see compatibility list in the link.
Framaroot is an Android app created by XDA user alephzain. It allows you to root your device directly from your Android device-please click on link above to view full compatibility list. Download and Install this app. If it says "Installation blocked", go to your phone's Settings>Security and tick the "Unknown Sources" box. (Believe me, there are n00bs )
2. Open Framaroot. For the a390, there is only one exploit-Boromir, since it's a Mediatek powered device. Select Boromir.
3. Now you see two buttons: Install Superuser and Install SuperSU. You need to select only one of them. Framaroot will then root your device and install Superuser/SuperSU. (Superuser/SuperSU are apps which control root operations on your device ie. ensure no app uses root features without your permission-it is a MUST.)
The choice is up to you, but I'd recommend Superuser since it's like the Industry standard of rooted Android phones.
4. Reboot your phone. You'll find Superuser installed. Open it, swipe from left to right to access Superuser settings. The su binary is outdated and it'll appear in a red font. Tap it to update su binary.
This is proof enough that your phone is rooted, but if you really need to see, here's one more step.
5. Install Root checker from Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.joeykrim.rootcheck
Run this app, and if your phone is rooted, Superuser will come up automatically asking you whether Root Checker should be granted permission- press Yes and root Checker will deliver the result.
That's it-congratulations, you've rooted your a390 without any pain. Now you can flash a recovery, install Busybox, overclock your phone, get rid of the dumb apps Lenovo has included with the a390.... Enjoy! :laugh:
How to install a recovery
Now, there are two recoveries that rule the Android universe: ClockworkMod Recovery (CWM), and TeamWin Recovery Project (TWRP). The bad news is, neither is officially available for the Lenovo A390 or most of MediaTek devices. But where there's a will, there's a way- and some anonymous Android developer has created TWRP recoveries for the entire Lenovo smartphone series. <salute to the unsung hero> I used one specially customised for the A390, and it works fabulously.
First of all, ensure that your phone is rooted. If not, read the tutorial above.
1. Download this recovery.img file from this Google Drive: https://drive.google.com/file/d/11-...c9b-MfFTWpi9D_vBI0oVISPgRVcB/edit?usp=sharing
2. Install Recovery Tools-Flasher from the Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.mkrtchyan.recoverytools
3. Now press "Flash Recovery" button, it will open a file browser. Select the recovery.img file you downloaded from the file browser.
4. It should show a dialog box that says Flashing done. Press OK to boot into recovery. Press OK, and you'll see the TeamWin IdeaPhone load screen-and boot into TWRP.
Congrats, you've installed the recovery. Now you can install custom ROMs on your phone and backup your phone's kernels as protection against troubles. Enjoy! :highfive:
How to deodex your phone's ROM
Sadly, you cannot do this using your phone. You'll need a Windows PC for this process, a good Internet connection as you'll have to download large files for this process, and plenty of time.
Here's a good XDA Developers Tutorial on how to deodex your rom, complete with step-by-step explanation and screenshots: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2374008
There you go. If you followed my tutorial completely, you are now a proud owner of a rooted, recovery-flashed, deodexed MediaTek device/Lenovo A390.
Enjoy!

8.BusyBox Cost $FREE
9.Developer Options (USB Debug)
____________________
Okay now assuming that everything has been required, we can begin.
Go into Settings>System>About Device & Enable Developer Options.(Keep tapping the "Build Number" category until it says Developer options have been enabled.
Connect your device with your usb that which comes with the phone on the computer. Open "Kingo ROOT" on your computer with admin rights, and once the program asks you to turn USB Debug on, go on your phone into Settings>System>Developer options and make sure it is enabled as well as usb debugging. Wait for kingo root to find your device and once found, it will ask you to either "Reroot,Root, or Remove Root, click "Reroot" then wait for it to start.(After it starts you should see on your phone the kingo root usb app pop-up and show the same thing you see on your computer)
After it is done it should confirm you have been rooted and will ask to donate.
Now you may exit out of the program on the computer and the phone and once out of the app and back on your phone, you will want to look in your app drawer for the kingo root "Superuser" and uninstall this. Then head on over to the playstore if haven't all ready and install "SuperSU" & "Busybox" if want to. Once have the SuperSU app open it and install the su binary updates with the "Normal" option not the recovery one since we don't have that.... & once done just press OK DO NOT REBOOT or you will bootloop and will have to use Odin to reflash your system of your phone to get it back working out of the box "state"
UPDATE Have a pc around and can still boot with root:
Yamaha169 said:
You can restart the device while rooted... but you have to have ADB to do so...
When you reboot ... you will get stuck at the ATT logo... at this point... plug your phone in to your pc...
Open up ADB (COMMAND WINDOW)
type in
ADB devices
until your device # appears in adb... (this can take a minute for your pc to find your phone) so don't panic
This means the phone is found...
From this point... type
ADB ROOT
ADB SHELL
YOU will now be inside the shell of the device with root permissions
Now type
setenforce 0
(MAKE SURE LOWERCASE just like seen. "setenforce 0" if do Setenforce 0 it won't be found.....)
This will set selinux to permissive ... allowing the phone to boot...
Someone with enough experience could probably create a selinux permissive stock kernel ... but I've contacted several developers with no response ...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now open up the root checker app & click verify to see if you truly do have root.(You must grant root access so allow once it pops up.) Enjoy your root but never ever reboot.
UPDATE: How to Root If Possibly not allowing you to root!!!
Step one you will need to of downloaded "Android Studio
Step two you will now need to install all of the updates(Well that's what I did) inside the studio program.
Step three now locate 'program tools" which for me was located here: C:\Users\NameofComputer\AppData\Local\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools
Step four make a cmd.exe file to go in the platform-tools simply just clicking on the "start button" on windows and searching "cmd" then dragging the cmd file to the folder.(Rename it to something like ADB Root or something different than just cmd)
Step FIVE download the su binary which can be located HERE and place it in the "platform-tools" folder.
Step SIX now almost there. Open the cmd file(ADB Root.exe) and once opened, plug the phone into the computer with the cable that came with your phone.
Step Seven:^.^ now with the phone plugged in and the program start, type this command to make sure your device is found:
Code:
adb devices
and if found you will see your attached devices and if more than one or can't see your device, you can do
Code:
adb kill-server
command and it will restart adb.
Step Eight: MAGIC time lol now that your phone is connected and you can see it is indeed listed, type these commands as followed:
Code:
adb root
adb remount
adb push su /system/bin/su
adb shell
chown 0:0 /system/bin/su
chmod 6755 /system/bin/su
You don't really have to do the other commands after pushing su it's just for pre-caution.
Step Nine: Now do the following at the top and try to use the Kingo root once more and click root or reroot.
If this doesn't work try to press unroot and restart phone then try this again.
Also like down below I talk about if you did reboot before you unrooted, you can still unroot but sometimes it's tricky and it needs you to do the adb remount before will work so just remember that...

Requirements:
1.Your Phone Device SM-G92-0/5/8A
2.Root Access(Superuser rights)
3.SuperSU Cost $FREE
4.Root Checker Cost $FREE
____________________
This is very simple and easy to do, all you must do after every root and before every reboot is to go into "SuperSU" and go into the settings and scroll down until you see "Fully Unroot" and click that and once done verify with the root checker that you are indeed unrooted but still have adb shell and once done that you may freely reboot with no bootloop and then if want root once more just use "Kingo Root" on the computer to reroot once more.(I'm hoping someone will come out with an app that does the same thing and works so we don't need the computer anymore which would make it much easier..)
Edit/Update:
I found that if you maybe forgot to unroot before a reboot that you can still unroot without the need of going into odin and reflashing stock system just by connecting your phone to the computer via the usb that which comes with your phone and opening up Kingo Root and waiting for it to find your phone then click unroot and wait for it after you have unrooted and you will hear a sound which means it's fixed! So just force shutdown the device with pressing both: Volume Down+Home Button+Power then it will boot back up as normal!

____________________
Okay my fellow members that stayed on 5.1.1 with me, this tut did once work but then at&t blocked me and it stopped working but now rejoice becase there is a bypass once more!!!
NEW WAY:
I'm not sure which worked so I'm gonna just tell you everything that I did...
1.I first rooted obviously
2.I found a new TetheringProvision.apk which I have uploaded down in the attachment and at the top.
3.I used adb root for this but this can also be done with sqlite editior so I'll explain both ways, first way will be the easy way the adb root...>>>
Step 1: Ensure you have the correct OEM drivers installed for your handset on the computer
Step 2: Download and install the necessary ADB drivers (v1.4.2)
Step 3: Enable USB debugging on your Android handset:
Go to Settings > About Device, and tap the build number 7 times or until you see 'You're now a developer' message.
Return to Settings > Developer options and use the toggle button to turn on USB debugging. Then tap OK button to accept the warning and continue.
Step 4:Connect your device to PC with original USB cable.
Step 5: Launch a command window on your Windows PC.
Step 6: Access ADB shell and run the following command:
adb shell now just type " settings put global tether_dun_required 0 " and enter.
________----------Now the sqlite way
Step 1:Go into sqlite editor and allow root rights...
Step 2: Locate "Settings Storage" and click on "Settings.db then click on "global"
Step 3:Locate tether_dun_required 0 and if not there add by clicking on the +
then fill out name as " tether_dun_required " >>And value as " 0 " and then save file and unroot then reboot.
Now then after all of that I downloaded the build.prop which I know you don't have to but it makes it easier for me to do so and probably for you too...
Step 1:Get build.prop editor from the playstore and open it to grant root rights.
Step 2:Click on the pencil icon on the top right where the search icon is.
Step 3: Scroll all the way down to an open line.(If not one make one.)
and put this in the line....>>> " net.tethering.noprovisioning=true " and then click the save button at the top right and then save it and unroot then reboot.
Then replacing the Tetherprovision.apk . >>>
Step 1: Download the NEW modded TetherProvision.apk at top or at bottom.
Step 2: get a root explorer and go to System/App/TetheringProvision
Step 3: Rename the actual TetheringProvision.apk to TetheringProvision.apk.bak
Step 4: in the same location, go into "arm64" and rename the TetheringProvision.odex to TetheringProvision.odex.bak
Step 5: Now locate the modded TetheringProvision.apk you've just downloaded and place it in System/App/TetheringProvision/ now should be two TetheringProvision, the TetheringProvision.apk.bak and the modded one, TetheringProvision.apk.
Step 6: change the property promissions of the tetheringprovision.apk to give it root rights by changing the promissions to look just like the actual one which is " rw-r--r-- "
Step 7: save and unroot then reboot!
Now youre wifi tether and usb should work!!! enjoy!

2.Root Access(Superuser rights & .SuperSU Cost $FREE)
3.Fast Reboot
4.Soft Reboot
5.Viper4Android V2.3.4.0

7.Titanium Backup & Titanium Backup Pro License Cost $Free | $5.99
8.IRS Impulse Response Sample files
9.Root Explorer Cost $3.99
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
To Read the tuts yourself than rather follow my tut, you may do so by following This Link & This Link
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Alright, I decided to do my own detail tut to make it much easier so follow me and you'll have viper4android in no time : )
So let's get begin, download if not already, the busybox,SuperSU,TitaniumBackup,Fast reboot,Soft Reboot, & Root explorer. Now having all that done open up Busybox and allow it root rights and you may wait for it to research for a smart intall, or just press install. Once you installed it in the default location System/xbin, click on the will be installed to location and choose System/bin and install it there too.(Not sure why but that's what the tut called for.)
Now let's download the folders for viper4android, go ahead and download Audio_Effect.Config.zip file,IRS Impulse Response Sample files, & the Viper4Android V2.3.4.0 folder.
Now open up the root explorer and unzip all that which is zipped up.(Which is all of the files;Audio_Effect.Config.zip file,IRS Impulse Response Sample files.zip, & the Viper4Android V2.3.4.0 folder.zip
)
Now once all are extracted, we will begin putting what is needed where.
Let's start off with the ViPER4Android_FX_A4.x (The actual name of the folder) you're gonna want to long press it and copy this folder. Once done, you're gonna want to paste this folder in System>Priv-app and make sure to change the permission of the .apk to 0644 rw-r--r-- & the FOLDER to 0755 rwxr-xr-x(The folder should have the same permissions as the other folders in that location.) which is inside the folder to give it root access which is 0644;rw-r--r-- and if not sure what root permission should look like, refer to this link Or Google what it looks like, then save/press ok.
Now go back to where you extracted your folders, and this time copy the "audio_effects.conf and go to System>etc and find and rename the actual audio_effects.conf to audio_effects.conf.bak and then paste the copied modded audio_effects.conf here & DONT FORGET change the permissions to give it root rights.
Now after all is done, open the app "Titanium Backup Pro" and look for and freeze these following applications: 1.Adapt Sound 4.0 & SoundAlive 3.0 now open the app "Soft Reboot (Root) and click yes you want to do a soft reboot. Then once back up(If want you can click the "Fast reboot app" to quickly refresh the system) and running you should see the viper app inside your app drawer. Open it and install the update/software when ask you to and once done it should ask for you to reboot just click on ok and then go out and back to the "Soft Reboot (Root) then do another soft reboot.
Now almost DONE!!! Once back up and running again, go to your root explorer again where you extracted the folders and grab the folder of "ViPER4Android and move it to your device storage ex; Storage/emulated/0 (It's where the download folder is and dcim folder is.. Then finally, go toSettings>Device>Sounds and notifications>Sound quality and effects and toggle on all of the listings[NOTE YOU MUST PUT EARPHONES IN FOR THESE TOGGLES TO SHOW]; UHQ Upscaler|SoundAlive+|Tube Amp Pro now you're done enjoy viper4android via editing the settings in the app.
Edit
You need to download SELinux Mode Changer and give root rights and just click on permissive mode and all done. Also might need to use compatible mode in the Viper4Android settings.
I found that this mod works with Pandora and Youtube app but not with google music or the default music app and not sure how to fix that....
__________________________________0
This is some more quick finds which you don't need a tut for just information I'd like to share so you all know.
I found out that you can use Titanium Backup Pro Cost $5.99 and freeze anything you want such as bloatware and that annoying notification that appears every time you reboot if have systemless root installed "SecurityLogAgent" and as long as you UNROOT before you reboot, it is safe and everything you froze stays frozen.
Now I haven't tried uninstalling any system apps so I wouldn't advise doing that unless you wanted to but I don't see the point except to free space up since you can just freeze anything and does the same thing except for freeing space....
I haven't been able to unlock the bootloader in my research and errors which probably never gonna happen anytime soon....
I also never found an app that could root the device yet without a computer....
And yeah that's it! I just was so happy to find out all of this and just had to share it with xda members which are on the same boat as me that has been wanting some "freedom" which now can have a piece of it. : )
If found these tuts to be helpful, feel free to hit thanks button and if want donate.

Odin Flash Kernel for systemless root.
obtain root
Download SuperSU
After rooted download some sort of buildprop editor and search for " ro.securestorage.support=true" Now change =true to =false. and save!
Now go into the superSU app and fully unroot then reboot and also keep adb shell root!
So you fix the wifi bug plus keep the adb shell so you can obtain root once more! Now we just need some app that can give root access with 1 click without needing a pc and this would work for me until we can actually reboot with root without it bootlooping anyways.... I still can't find a wifi tether app or a method that works for the at&t hotspot app though...

Question for clarification.
So current method for rooting g928a is this systemless root.
Question 1, will it brick my phone with this root if i reboot, because i read somewhere on here that the phone will just keep on rebooting.
You mention using superSU app to unroot to reboot. So basically I have to unroot with superSU whenever I want to reboot then reflash again to get root?

Yes you must unroot to remove the su binary so the system acts like nothing has happen. I use kingo root for windows and it works every time with root all you need to do is hit "root" or it may say "reroot" and works every time. I have been playing with this a lot trying to do things to get it to reboot with root but have failed so far.... I wish someone with more experience would approach this so we could have an app to use at least so we not have to use pc every time to reroot until we get the ability to keep root and reboot.
Kingo root can be found here : https://www.kingoapp.com/android-root.htm
and this works after flashing the kernel from odin. This was the only way I actually found to be able to get root was with this because manually pushing su just didn't work for me....
Thanks for being much clearer on the instructions and idoit proof. I was worried about the bootloop and I thought there was no exit strategy on this expensive phone until you mention reflash. With your extensive tinkering on this, did your knox security trip up?
If this is the only possible way, maybe the community could make some sort of app that if we have to shutdown or reboot the phone specifically for g928a, it will safely unroot it for us.
TASKER?!
Anyone know if this still works after taking the latest OTA a few days ago?
The problem is this isn't root. I restart my phone several times a day. There is no point especially if I can't get a custom OS. However, thanks for making the instructions clear. And for anyone who doesn't understand systemless root, it's temp root. When you reboot dmverity sees the false file structure and tries to rewrite and reverse the changes, effectively removing root. On the Note 5 AT&T for temp root you didn't have to unroot before reboot as it wouldn't boot loop, it would just remove root and let you continue on. So something in this version must be getting farther in breaking past dmverity if it's causing the OS to bootloop.

I was wondering if maybe we could place SU somewhere else so we might could trick it to reboot with root but haven't done it yet and or maybe keep SU on the sdcard/storage and use the terminal on the phone to push su to xbin every reboot but just hoping maybe can get root working without making the stupid thing bootloop.... Like I said I been doing a lot of dumb stuff with my phone because I have been so disappointed in this phone with not having wifi tether at the most really but now that got that I'm much happier but I'm still on the research of keeping root and being able to reboot.
I won't be updating until something maybe for sure comes along with 6.0 I can wait because my galaxy s4 I had stayed on stock version forever because was able to do everything so was no need to update really.... Anyways yeah lol maybe someone greater or maybe my playing around will work. WE can only hope...
Oh yeah, to the other guy NO it did not trip knox doing any of the things I've done. which I wouldn't care if could unlock the bootloader lol...
Edit:
I've done all I can think of and didn't work to keep root on a reboot except it did keep root without bootloop with a soft reboot...
I found out to maybe later will add tut up top but for now I'd like to tell you or whoever, if you do bootloop due to not being able to access the su unroot in time, you can still connect your device with Kingo Root in that bootloop and can unroot to save you from having to reflash every time... Might have to reboot as soon as you hear the found from the unroot though.
Oh and on a factory reset everything sticks excepts what was frozen becomes unfrozen just fyi...
Yeah, that's all I can find so I'm done with it hope someone can help later on but I'm just happy with wifi tether so much : )
So what all can we do with this root
Thank you for your hard work. it's very much appreciated!!!
Will pay part of my bounty which is 50 dollars pay day!!
But, please reply. what all can we do with this root!?

Hi, I didn't come up with anything but the fix for wifi bug and hotspot app.
I just made a very detail tut to help others, but thanks.
I would wait on the bounty to be paid to someone who can make it possible to keep root on and still be able to reboot.
So in theory with this method I can root, install a modified tetheringprovisions, unroot (as hotspot is the only feature I actually desire), and go about my business without worrying about bootlooping or knox being tripped? Feels too good to be true, but I want to believe.
Just a reminder that Android 6.0.1 is right around the corner. If you don't fully go back to stock before the upgrade it will not flash and could possibly wipe the data partition. Both the system and boot images need to be 100% stock.

It's true, that's how my phone is rolling with frozen apps and the modded hotspot without root, but still the systemless root remains in the system but doesn't do anything with out a computer or applying the kingo root to true root it.
I haven't tested the adaway yet so idk if will work or not.... and I been wanting xpose to work to disable youtube ads but haven't tried that either. . I might root tonight and try out adway tho.
But yeah to your question you are 100% safe and will not change anything or trip anything; phone can reboot all it wants with no bootloops with the modded tether is what I'm trying to say lol .. .
Edit:
Yeah adaway works after unroot and reboot. . . But I decided not to use it because a lot of people us adfly and it wouldn't let me access the link so yeah.....
On another note I froze a lot of stuff and done a lot of things not sure which part caused it but it doesn't bother me because I don't use samsung pay but in the end I had to freeze samsung framework for samsung pay because it kept saying force closed but which again Idc about that app so no biggy to me : )
Was Samsung Pay crashing before you started freezing apps? I have yet to use Pay but I'd prefer to keep my options open if possible.

Honestly, I'm not sure but it had to be either the freezing at&t update or securityagent because it seemed to happen after that... Or could be the hotspot mod but I didn't get any crashes until i froze those 2 apps so idk...
Package Disabler in play store freezes apps so what's the point?
Can you fully remove with TiBu and be safe unrooted?

Yeah and from what I've seen of the nightmares people have been having with their Note 5's on Marshmallow, I'm staying FAR away from it!
I can confirm this works. Sorta a pain to have to reroot but hey, It's progress. We may never have a custom ROM option or recovery, But this is the next big thing. If we can find a app that'll just reroot us. it's perfect. (somewhat) Just rooted a few minutes ago. Going to play around. More than likely I'll re flash stock and make a youtube video for anyone needing questions or wanting to see it be done.
And I lied.. So, My experience was weird. Lagging constantly and weird download issues with a fresh wipe.
I'm sadly gonna have to unroot and hope that a better method would come out.

I'm not sure why you would experience "lag" because I have no lag what so ever. Maybe try going to settings>system>developer options and change both transition animation scale and window animation scale to 0.5x
I've reflashed stock many of times due to to trying to find everything there is to find and I've had no "lag" but also you could download the soft reboot and fast reboot from market. Fast reboot frees up memory via closing and restarting certain apps, and soft reboot kills zygote and does a "hot reboot" without going through whole start up process .
Please reply I'm gonna try and help you : )

I can confirm freezing anything won't harm the system on a reboot after unrooting but not sure about removing the apps would be safe. I have however remove the youtube app and reinstalled it in play store and it didn't harm anything.

Thanks for helping me! I went ahead and flashed stock and followed your steps!
Working great now!
NOW, My next question... What difference would it make if I used package disabler pro VS TBU?
Wouldn't both of these apps freeze the processes? Or would it make a difference with root and SU access?

I'm not sure because I've never heard of that program, but I did buy it just now for about $1.89 and the activation keeps failing so I can't test it to see the difference but with titanium you can do everything not just freeze stuff but back up apps and their data and much more.
Titanium backup has been around for ages which is why I recommend it.

I use package Disabler. Works like TiBu without root. Only reason to root would be to fully remove apps but would it boot okay after?
