(DS) Help! Reboot everytime I try to use gl2sd or other root app

I rooted my xperia m dual using vroot 1.7.1. Replaced the Chinese superuser with supersu 1.65. I got the root permissions this way. Also installed busybox v1.21.1 in system/xbin using normal install method. Then I try gl2sd, but whenever I click on mount, after mounting, my device reboots. I am on stock rom v4.2.2, rooted, bootloader locked. I hope there must be some way out to make it work without unlocking the bootloader, coz it was working on single sim version without any need to unlock bootloader. Help asap developers

You need a rootfixer.Your phone is half rooted therefore everytime you try to write in /system it reboots.
Try using this guide and dont forget the 4th step.

So y did the phone app just ask for SU Permission?

I'm stock 4.4.2 Sense 6 s off unlocked bootloader rooted stock rom, and while browsing xda premium, all of a sudden I got a notification for htc "get started" ,I hit deny and immediately after that I got the SuperSu prompt for phone 'com.htc.dialer… requesting SuperSu rights…. U denied it… anybody have any idea???

apps installed on the system partition have access to root without the need of SU to control it. When you install an app like superSU you now give that APK control of any request of root rights. When phone asked for root it didnt know that you have an app that is now handling the request and thats why you were notified.

Oh n Santod, I'm on 1 of your stock rooted odexed roms, I noticed SuperSu isn't installed as system app when I look in the settings in SuperSu, is it better to leave it as a user app, or go ahead with the install as system app??

[Q] Rooting after the new update(10m)

I haven't seen a clear answer on this, so does anybody know what root methods still work after the new update? If they all still do, is there anything I should do differently in the rooting process?

You have to wait till one of the methods gets an upgrade
BAD ASS G3

Well seeing as how the d851 boot loader is shipping unlocked from T-Mobile I think it would be pretty safe to say that once you manage to properly install the 10m OTA, you would simply flash TWRP from purpledrake in fastboot and from there flash supersu.

I used Stump root and mine is rooted again. I had to use the brute force root to get it done in Stump. After that I installed SuperU, TWRP and Busy Box.

Purpledrake probably replaced the M boot.img with the C boot.img. If it did that means your back on the C kernel and if it didn't you no longer have the modded disabled root checker.

I used Kingroot. Even if it says it can't, just tap root. It should root and reboot it.

KingRoot is the answer.

Yes,KingRoot will work. I'm also on 5.1.1 with Unlocked Bootloader and the latest version of KingRoot worked like a charm. Replaced it with SuperSU later and now everything looks good.

What method did you use to to replace KingRoot with SuperSU? I've seen an app on the Play store called Super-Sume, but it costs $4. I was wondering, is there was a better alternative? I've seen some guides online, but they were written in very poor English.
I'm trying to root a T2 Ultra and put link2sd on it to solve the low storage problem. It currently on Lollipop 5.1.1
Thanks!

Lenovo k4 note xposed and supersu

Hello friends i am glad we are successful in getting xposed on lenovo k4 note.
Here we present the 100℅ working method for it
Firstly i think you have rooted already your k4 if not see here http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/help/root-lenovo-vibe-k4-note-t3313481
First you have to replace kingroot with supersu
Download this file Mod Edit: link removed.
extract it and place mrw folder in internal sdcard i.e. address should be sdcard/mrw
Ok now download this terminal emulator Mod Edit: link removed.
and open it.
Type su and enter
kingroot root allow window will open .press allow.
Now
It will show # rather than $
Now type
sh sdcard/mrw/root.sh
And enter and wait
supersu will automatically open now ask to update binary press yes and select normal.
Now install flashfire by chainfire here https://play.google.com/apps/testing/eu.chainfire.flash
And install
Now download these files
Mod Edit: links removed.
Ok open flashfire
Click + button
Select flash zip file
Select the downloaded xposed-v80-sdk22-arm64.zip
And flash
It will automatically flash and reboot now install downloaded xposed apk and
There you go.
Like everytime you are welcomed to ask questions like noobs
No problem everyone was a noob first.
UPDATE: this method has been tested on 2 k4 notes more than 3 times without any problems. this method will work for every phone with locked as well as unlocked bootloader but just download suitable xposed binary for your phone if your phone is not 64bit.
Credits to:
Rovo89 for xposed
Chainfire for flashfire

Reserved 1

Reserved 2

Reserved 3

i have done all that but after flashing the Xposed and go to the app it says Xposed not installed
have tried that 5 times now :\

I can't understand how can you lose imeis with this method.
There is no such thing like that.
Imei partition is different from system.
Maybe you tried firmware upgrade via sp flash tool.
But i used firm. Upgrade too but worked fine.

Not on all devices. It is common that messing with the system partition can cause IMEI corruption. Chained in dual sim devices. This is due to the fact that android doesn't fully support dual Sims so each oem does it differently.

But it will be same for same models.
If i am successful he should also be successful on same phone model.
But he may be trying differently. Not exactly how i wrote.

Imei corruption can be repaired easily as stock rom contains apdb, db files which are needed to repair imei.
