Rooting Android without it diplaying on the phone. - Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking

Hello,
I was wondering if there is any way to root a phone without it being displayed to the user? I plan on using mspy to monitor a few phones at work. This program will only work for extra functions like facebook, snapchat, and others. So is there anyway to root the phone without it displaying it too the users so they do not suspect that it is being spied on? They are Zte Majesty. Android Op 4.10.0. Thanks in advance. I would like to be able to root the phones, and the app not appear on the app list or under any program files that are easily visible.

Maybe block the ads altogether with adaway or something similar?
Turn off WiFi and mobile data maybe?
I have tried the adaway and others like it but some apps will still have ads like talking tom etc. as for the second option of turning the wifi and data off that is the only way I currently have but if the phone is lying somewhere and he gets hold of it all bets are off. I am surprised there is no popular app to password protect launching or installing new apps.

[Q] Standalone/Native apps for android wear watches

Hey, I'd like to know some apps that you install using the phone, but which can be used when the phone is disconnected (not with you), so run natively on the watch.
Like, I install app A when I have my friends android phone, when I go home, I still want to use app A. I know there is a possibility for this as google said it. I know of the 2 apps: wear calc and wear compass. But surely, there should be more right? Anyone know some Watch-specific/native/standalone apps?
Thanks!
Anything that involved Internet connection is pretty much out. There are games that work when disconnected though. I have several of them. Just do some searching.

[Q] Rooting 4.4 and above

I'm a recent graduate in computer forensics, and would like to help cyber bullied kids by obtaining the deleted text messages from their phones to show as proof. It seems the programs I'm using require anything higher than 4.2 to already be rooted before I can scan them. Is there a program that will root any phone? I see ODIN only works on Samsung phones, and Kingo Root advertises that it works on all makes but when I tried it on my HTC Desire it turned out to be "locked". What am I doing wrong?
Is there an easy to understand guide to rooting any phone?

FoxFi Trusted - System Credentials Lockscreen

Sorry if the title is a bit jumbled. I love FoxFi alot. The only Con I can think of is that the trusted credential prevents my phone's unlock process to be swiped. I am rooted. Is there some way I can move the FoxFi credential into the system side, so that I can reenable swipeable lockscreen; or is there a root method I can use just to set my phone's lockscreen without moving the credential?
Also, I know and have set my phone's locktime to the max. But even still, it locks way to often. I am running 5.0.1 VS98523C on my LG G3.
Anybody here? Lol
Don't struggle with it
If you're rooted, then you don't have to struggle with that. There are plenty of tethering apps out there. Find one that works with your G3. I used to use a really good one made by someone here at XDA. I forgot the name, but I can tell you it has a yellow icon. Foxfi is for people who are not rooted. You've gone through the rooting process, now enjoy the benefit of all the choices.

Strange "RootPA" app on my HTC 10. Is it a potential security issue?

Im using a HTC 10 (EU variant). Today i was scrolling through "Netguard" (if you dont know it, its an app to prevent other apps from internet access), since i configured it to show system apps it displays way more apps than the normal app overview in the settings. In there i found an app called "RootPA" and one called "root", which seems strange since i didnt unlock the bootloader or root on my own. The details in the RootPA entry say "com.gd.mobicore.pa", no idea if thats helpfull to determine the origin of this mysterious app.
Can you help me with this?
Did you Google it?
I did, but the results were not realy usefull. I found someone with a modded Galaxy S3 who deleted a RootPA on accident and broke stuff, but that ssems unrelated. Are there any things i could do to find out more about the app installed on my phone without root?
I cant say its something I've ever seen. If this person in the past removed it, and it broke stuff, that would suggest that it may have been a system app and he was rooted. From what I managed to find on google, it is part of a security suite (mobicore) used by networks to monitor what the state of the phone is, presumably incase something happens, and it was the user fault, and they know for a fact because they have logs of what the phone has done.
[ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE] Allows applications to access information about networks
[INTERNET] Allows applications to open network sockets. (i.e send information)
[READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE] Allows an application to read from external storage.
[READ_PHONE_STATE] Allows read only access to phone state.
A friend of mine got his HTC 10 2 days ago, ill ask him to look for this app. Its unlikely we would have the same virus/whatever installed.
Edit: He just reseted his 10 (due to missing language options, but thats another topic), but still found "root" and "rootPA" on his phone, so its preinstalled (although i still dont understand whats its purpose).
RootPA is provides service for provisioning secure applications that run on ARM trustzone and t-base OS (formerly mobicore). It is preinstalled in some vendors Android devices (search for this string on the internet: htc-devices-to-incorporate-trustonic-t-base-tee), but mostly unused as far as I know. The source code of some versions is available on the Internet (e.g. on github /Faryaab/android_hardware_samsung_slsi_exynos5410/tree/master/mobicore/rootpa).
It has nothing to to with rooting or unrooting the device.

PA route..... .rootPA ......2 different things. Hacked ? Unlikely, I think some OCD is kicking in. Want to be clean? RUU the device and do not restore anything
