I have root and am in need of a custom recovery in order to use Xposed. Anyone willing to lend a hand? Possibly?
Edit- Im not a dev or anything, I had already bought MO mobile odin.
Edit- Its requiring a system dump and this is the only phone I have.
Edit- And freaking lastly, Xposed and its many modules are so freaking awesome, especially xprivacy and well as that other dudes stuff which you are all ragging on. @defim #defim

Hey guys,
I was wondering if someone could help me a little. I just bought this tablet (2014 version) and it has MK1.
I am trying to read information on how to root it but can't figure it out. I tried to flash autoroot with odin but it errored. I didn't find mk1 autoroot anywhere so i used autorootp600.mj4.tar.md5. Is there autoroot for MK1 and i can use? Also i guess i will need to have custom recovery file for my stock OS, where do i get that?
Thank you in advance for all the help.
Edit: I finally located autoroot for mk1 and it worked. But i do have a question: why do we need to flash it with Stock Recovery after? btw i am using this tutorial : http://theunlockr.com/2013/12/17/root-samsung-galaxy-note-10-1-2014-edition/
What version do you have?
P600 (wifi only)
P601 (3g)
P605 (lte)
?
They have different chipsets and different root methods.
[e] I see you have found the correct version if you want to get OTA updates you need to flash stock recovery so your device status is not custom. But it basically doesn't matter since you can always flash updates through odin. You may choose a custom recovery that offers you a lot of cool features instead.

I believe...... so you can still get OTA updates and some functions like All Share Cast may not work if you don't.
The thing is, even if you have stock recovery but modify your system in other ways like uninstall alot of bloatware or use busybox your status will be custom anyway so I recommend a custom recovery for the safety of using backups etc.
Thank you guys for responding so quickly.
It's starting to make sense.
My device is Wifi only so SM-P600 (mk1). I rooted it but haven't flashed with stock recovery. Would you guys recommend i do a custom recovery or keep it stock? Where do i get stock recovery from? i can't seem to find it.

Ok, that makes sense i went though it. So i see that there is ClockMod and TWRP and GooManager, do they do pretty much the same thing?
So as far as Roms go, i see that in Development section there are few ROMs available but some say they are for MJ9 or ML1, i cannot use those on my MK1 right? Do ROMs from note 10.1 (2013) work on this device? Is there a list of ROMs that would work on my device.
Sorry, guys i know these are newb questions but i just could never figure out some of this stuff.

Goomanager is an app use it to flash twrp recovery.
TWRP and clockmod (CWM) they are 2 different tools but have the exact same functions, just a user choice. Sometimes custom rom preferred one over the other. I like TWRP a bit better (easier).
is there a way to check if it is rooted or not?

To root from stock (either 4.2.2 or 4.4.2) use ioroot (I'll attach the version I used for my LS980).
After you're rooted (verify with the Root Checker on Android Play Store or by Terminal Emulator >
Code:
su
Download FreeGee Free from the Google Play Store.
Open FreeGee, let it download the device list, then tap "Backup EFS" I HIGHLY Recommend This, as if you lose your EFS it's nearly impossible to get it back!
After your EFS is backed up, tap on TWRP or CWM, whichever you prefer (Team Win Recovery Project, or ClockWork Mod Recovery).
Now you're all set -- rooted and with a custom recovery installed. For more information about flashing ROMs, look here or ask me. The Sprint G2 is touchy with flashing ROMs with the new update.
I can see from the questions that you can flash SuperSU and get root without installing a custom recovery on the One Mini but is this possible to do on the LG G3?
I've searched and I can't come up with anything.
I want to root simply to remove apps so I don't want to install CWM/TWRP as having a custom recovery annoys the HELL out of me. I don't understand why a custom recovery is needed? Can't the one that comes with the phone do everything those can?
IMO, they are just there cause they look prettier. LOL
Anyway, I have the T-Mobile G3. I had it rooted but unrooted to install latest update (that was hell, turned out my drivers were not updated). I used PurpleDrake last time but it installed TWRP and as I said, I don't want TWRP.
Any ideas?
Good question! Bumping this for you as I'm interested too!

I have the T-Mobile G3 as well. I rooted and got Supersu way before installing TWRP! It's possible. TWRP is a custom recovery that allows you to backup your entire phone (including software) in case you make a mistake. It also allows you to "flash" things to your phone. It has a lot of features and is needed to install a custom ROM or update that custom ROM.
You don't need it, but I would suggest it highly. The ability to backup everything is a must when you're doing something to your phone. It essentially prevents you from bricking your phone -- which I did. However, I made a full backup before deleting everything, so all I did was go into TWRP and undo the bricking by restoring a backup.
You can root your phone without a custom recovery. Then you can go into the play store and download SuperSu, then you can download Titanium Backup to remove the bloatware. A custom recovery isn't needed for any of this.
Hello,
I always had a HTC, so I'm kind of a new with rooting and unlocking an LG.
I have a LG D855 international and I have been reading a lot in this forum and I think that I've figured it out. But I just wont to be sure.
So if I'm right than I can root my phone by running purpledrake. When I've done that I have to install SU.
But if I understand it correcly the only way to get twrp is with" Bump'ed TWRP" so it's only possible to have TWRP if I use a custom rom?
So it's not possible to have orig Rom an TWRP? Right?
But If I just root my phone with purpledrake, so without installing TWRP and without custom Rom, I would still be able to use EXPOSED? RIght?

Yes Purple Drake is currently the most reliable root method, once you have root you need to install the SuperSU app of your choice.
Don't confuse yourself with Bump! Just accept that this is the only recovery that works with the G3 and install it then use it like normal. You will only be able to flash custom kernels (and roms with custom kernels) after they have been bumped, this is something the developer will do for you not anything for you to be concerned with, and fairly soon (when this method is released) all custom roms and kernels you find on xda will be pre-bumped - so basically you can treat the recovery like you always have done.
Xposed is nothing to do with recovery and everything to do with having root access.
Does this recovery back up my stock rom safely? I'm hesitant to use it because I've never heard of bump.

Nope, afaik, once on bumped twrp, u can't restore stock recovery. For that you will again have to flash the stock KDZ.
OK so it's only for bumped roms. Thank you

The user above you is wrong and didnt read your question properly.
You CAN back up your stock ROM, just install bump, head to recovery and do a backup - you will never get stock recovery back though, unless you flash a KDZ with Flashtool.
But yes you can use TWRP to back up your currenty stock ROM.
Okay I get it the only way to restore the rom that I backed up is to add bump to it! ok I got it but in order to get back my stock phone I'm going to have to use the LG flash tool right

Thanx a lot.
I just wanted to make sure that I have everything right.
Thanks again
I have a note 4 which I froze at 5.0.1 BOAF version using the debloater utility.
I would like to do the conversion to the DE unlock and flash CM13.
I keep seeing people needing to flash a 5.1.1 kernel in order to avoid bootloops. As I am not on 5.1.1, am I free to do the unlock, flash TWRP and then flash CM13/Gapps?
I really don't want to update to 5.1.1 and would like some input from those with BOAF who have done this. Any issues you had and solutions?
My fear is getting to the point of flashing TWRP and then not being able to flash SU and CM13 because of the TWRP SD card issue.
I am familiar with ADB and have been flashing roms since the DroidX.
Place all the files you need on your internal storage. Then root with Kingroot and unlock the BL. Then go into DL mode and flash recovery. Then you can access you internal SD to flash the Emotion kernel or you will get kernel panic and bootloop. Then flash Super SU 2.67. If you install Xposed you can remedy the TWRP ext SD issue with Wanam Xpose module. I know because I've done been down this road and figured it out today lol. Hope this helps shed a lil light on it for ya.

Well I understand what you are saying but if you're going to unlock the bootloader anyways and flash a 6.0 ROM what does it really matter. If you're worried about being able to downgrade, there is a safe upgrade method to do that so you can be able to downgrade if you want.

I'm concerned with soft bricking by flashing the wrong version kernel.
And I was asking how to NOT soft brick.
Has anyone done this with 5.0.1 (as the title states) without issue?

If you are on 5.0.1, you can do the DE conversion. You don't need to flash a kernel. Once you're done, you can flash the 5.1.1 through odin, install TWRP, and then flash the kernel and superSU again. Don't use the evolution kernel. Use the one from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/not...nt/firmware-safe-upgrade-to-lollipop-t3313224

No, you do not have to flash a 5.1.1 kernel if you intend to stay on 5.0.1. However, if you decide to flash anything 5.1.1+, AND WANT ROOT, a 5.1.1+ permissive kernel is required to prevent boot loop.

My confusion was that I had thought that roms included a kernel already, and you only needed to flash a kernel if you wanted a custom one other than what is included with the rom. In the past I have flashed roms that had tweaked kernels included, no need to flash a separate kernel.
So it sounds like if I want to go to CM13 I have to unlock, update to 5.1.1 then do all of the other steps listed.
I was just hoping to skip right over 5.1.1 and go right to CM13 with TWRP using the included CM13 kernel. That is what I was asking, if those of us on 5.0.1 could skip over updating to 5.1.1.
Another question...If I unlock the BL and then update to 5.1.1 as sizzle suggested, won't that lock the BL again?

This. Glad I found this thread, this question has been hauting me..
I did the bootloader unlock exploit recently and saw I was on 5.0.1. I know that if I want to flash to a 5.1.1 rom I need to update to 5.1.1 prior to get the kernel and modem and what not. My only worry about doing so is whether or not it will re-lock my bootloader in the process. I'm not worried about downgrading, just about losing my bootloader unlock and root.
