Hi,
my LG G3 has a little problem with battery drain. There is process Android, what drains lot of energy and I don't know how fix it without root.
Is possible to make a temporary root to my G3 with stock ROM Android 6 and check wakelocks?
If is it possible, what utility can I use? And restart phone will revert to the unroot status?
Thanks

Kingroot ?
But with kingroot you should be face kernel panic....
Kernel Panic looks bad
Any alternatives?
Find the process then use debloater and hide it.
There are 2 processes. "Android System" and "Core (Android OS)". I don't know why, but they are really big battery drainers.
I know there is something what wake CPU up, but I don't know any way how identify it without root and I don't wanna permanently rooted phone.

My device d855 with 30c.kdz
Using Kingroot working normally , I don't know about kernel panic.
And yes, after restart must be rooting again.
And what about changes what you made?
They are permanent or will be reverted back?

Temporary root
As I said "And yes, after restart must be rooting again."
Yes, I know.
But what about changes? For example if I remove any system app. It will be back after restart or is forever gone?

Hello everyone, I'm a new member to this site, and I've heard that this site is where i can go to get some answers to problems, that being said, i was hoping y'all can help me with a problem I'm having with my phone.
So I rooted my Sprint LG G2 phone (this is the first time I've ever rooted a phone), then i went to remove some unwanted apps off the phone, then I thought to test and see if I can go back to stock, and without even thinking about the removed apps that i could've restored, I did a factory reset on my phone, it boots up, and I'm still rooted, and the apps that I removed did not come back, so I went to this app call "superSU" and did a full unroot, after that, I restarted my phone, and I still notice that I have root apps installed like "G2 Xsposed, Xposed Installer, Unistall, and Root Browser, so I opened up "Root Checker", it says my device does not have root access, yet I still have G2 Xposed, as well as other root apps I have, so I'm hoping that I can get the apps that came with the phone back (apps like "Clock Widget, Weather Wiget, Music Wiget, Music, SVI settings"), and go back to when I first bought this phone. Is there any simple method I can do to fix these problems with y'all help, I would really appreiate it.

titanium backup is gravy just open it give it root permissions and than you can go to the backup/restore tab and do either of those per app.

My camera app, keeps asking me to save to sd it happens randomly.
I always save to sd, but after a few days it would ask me again.
I know on older versions the G3 would keep asking me my preferences for default apps, you could try updating if possible. I'm on 5.0.1 version 20F and it doesn't happen anymore.

Ah okay, well that's true I guess. You could always dig around and see/ask if there's a way to fix it, someone may have accidentally or intentionally fixed it or patched it in a custom ROM, anything's possible, it seems to be just the phone not remembering on reboot your preferences, which most likely comes down to a single file that has preferences stored somewhere.
see #5 for problem
Hi guys,
so after quite some time with custom Roms I decided to go stock again as somehow I don't need root at all. Well, that's not true. I miss AdAway.
As there is no possibility to root the stock rom, is there ANY AdBlocker that works on Lollipop? AdBlock Plus doesn't (yet).
Why did you say there is no possibility to root the stock rom ?
I'm running Stock ROM, rooted and AdAway running fine.

How do you root the stock rom? I couldn't find out how.
Can I root without losing my data?

Flash twrp recovery and root through the recovery. It'll ask you when you reboot the system if you want to root it
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using XDA Free mobile app
Huh. Didn't know it was THAT straightforward and I've been flashing my phones for years.
Well. I flashed TWRP and SuperSU 2.46, succeeded. But Adaway and Adfree don't work correctly. They block the ads but only until you reboot, then it's reverted, kinda like with a tethered jailbreak on iPhones.
What am I doing wrong here? Also the block is not like on KitKat - there it was really blocked, really removed, here only the images of the ads are removed but you still see the space they were supposed to be.
I also used a system app removal tool that also didn't work although it shows success. It just removes the installed data like updates.
When I delete apps manually via ES Explorer, they just reappear at the next reboot.
Root Checker says root is fine but it isn't supposed to behave like that and undo my changes.
What's wrong? Do I need another kernel maybe? As I said I went back to stock completely and updatet through to L.
I believe I got whats causing the issue.
After deleting a system app and rebooting, I got a message saying that the phone was restored from an "unnormal behaviour". Does Lollipop bring some kind of system restore point that just automatically restores itself when "weird" things like host file alteration happens? If yes, how do I get rid of that?
This phone has always had system files protected since KitKat. You need a kernel mod to delete system apps.
Don't know why the ad blockers aren't working. Adaway is working fine for me on stock US Dev Edition rooted. You said you are using Adaway and AdFree? Are you actually using both at the same time? maybe they are interfering with each other?
No I meant it happens with both. Only use adaway now. They work but after a reboot the adblock is gone and I need to apply it again. In fact, AdAway says it's deactivated and AdFree says it's already up to date but ads show anyway and I need to install the fix again to get rid of them.
Can you maybe point me to a kernel mod? Would want to get rid of some bloatware.
Maybe I should try installing xposed and see if it's gone after a reboot.

The thread is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2701816
But unfortunately, flar2 hasn't had the time to update for LP. A user posted the kernel module in Post #210, but a subsequent user said it doesn't work. Custom ROMs have write protection disabled, as does Dev Edition stock ROM.

Odd, as mentioned, I've used AdAway for quite some time now, and don't have these issues.
Yes, very odd indeed. Well, if I don't get it sorted out somehow I might as well switch to Viper or some other close to stock custom Rom again, or make it Dev like you.
Things are getting worse, in 1 of 2 cases AdAway spits an error at me when trying to apply the fixes and the phone just reboots and undos everything. It's like some protection from rooting or changing anything although I am rooted. I don't understand it. I can't possibly be the only one having problems with root on Stock Lollipop
This is really annoying me. I think I'm better of just installing a custom rom and setting the phone up again, will cost me an hour but at least I'm done with the bugs.
Yup, decided to jump the gun, wipe and install ViperOne and now everything works as I wanted it to. AdAway stays active and working.

Interesting. I wonder if Adaway is dependent on the system write protection being disabled. I wouldn't normally suspect that, and only thinking of it since you mentioned the system write protection issue as well.
On the other hand, its the only difference I can think of between my phone and yours that would matter. I am on stock rooted Dev Edition, which apparently does not have the system write protection enabled by default.

I also assume that's the reason. I've never been on a stock rom since I don't know when, but figured that actually I only wanted AdAway which would normally not require a custom rom per se... but as it didn't really work in the end (and also other root-requiring stuff), I went back to custom again. Well, it's not that it's that difficult to wipe the phone occasionally and set up a clean custom rom to get it back to perfect performance. Gonna go with it.
Thanks to this forum I managed to root my phone with Magisk. I am really excited at the same time, I have no idea what "cool things" to do now? Any suggestions? In the old days I used FireSheep with a rooted phone but I guess that doesn't work anymore.
Any apps I should try or windows programs to do cool things (debloat, secure the phone etc.)?

Possible features if rooted are
1. AFWall (firewall)
2. XPrivacyLua (restricting rights of apps)
3. AdAway (ad blocking)
4. ACCA (battery charging management)
5. Migrate NG (backup and restoring)
etc.
Hi folks,
Hope you are all fine !
I uninstalled Magisk but some apps still detect it's "rooted" which prevent them from opening. Would you have any ideas what cleaning I could do to avoid these apps to wrongly detect root ?
I'm running A13 stable TP1A.221005.02.
Thanks in advance !

My guess is that you still have the bootloader unlocked.
If you decide to re-lock the bootloader, it's gonna factory reset & wipe all data.

Thanks for the suggestion.
I didn't think app could verify this so easily.
I'd like as much as possible to not wipe the device, is there any way to confirm what triggered the app to find the "root" though it is not rooted any longer ? Any logs I could check perhaps ?
Thanks in advance -
One other thing is to remove the magisk app .apk if you downloaded it. Some programs do scan your files and if they see magisk in your files they deem you as "rooted".
Cheers,

Before factory resetting, you could also try a dirty flash of the latest firmware.zip or using the official online Google Pixel Flash Tool.

It is not reading another apps data. It literally is scanning filenames. If you grant an app permission to read/write files, it can read any downloaded file to determine if it is magisk related.

I would be very suspicious of any app requesting such a permission, if it doesn't really need it.
Hi Folks,
Thanks everyone for your suggestions !
I removed all Magisk apps files, applications which needed root (though I'm not root, but was), and this fixed the issue here (I had in my hide list from nova an app called Root Explorer and I think the issue got resolved after I uninstalled it lol).
Have a great evening !
On a side note, moving to A13 ruined my great battery life, sadge.
I had poor battery on Sept A13 release. Oct A13 security release seemed to fix this.
Cheers,
