Flashback?

I think I need to do a Flashback on my Tablet so I can truly root it. I've tried a few ways to root it and all have failed. SuperUser won't open at all. Tried to Towelroot, even tried Stump Root and Stump says the device is already rooted, but I know it's not...
Just noticed I posted this in the wrong forum.

Got CWM into come up, but can't find the SU Zip file... So I just did the reboot from CWM... Now all it does is run a bit slower. SU trys to open, but stats Binary issues. Nothing changed, but slower device now.

When I got CWM opened I did a System wipe factory reset.
Then tried to use towelroot again... Didn't work...
Every link I found to SU was to the google play store... not a Zip folder...

Ok was able to run the SU Zip through CWM and had it rebooted after it was completed. Once it was on. I looked around on the Tablet and SU isn't installed. Running Root Checker Pro and it says the Devices appears to be running very Slow... Been on this screen for a few mins already.
Edit: Went back into CWM and Re-Booted... When I clicked on it a new page loaded and had an option to Fix Root... Choose it and Re-booted.

Downloaded SU from Google Play and it worked now... HUGE THANKS....

Well Crap... Says it's rooted. Xmod is getting Permission from Super User.. Mod installed in the Game... launch from xMod and the Game Crashes.

Ok opened SU and it triggered KNOX... Clicked to let SU to try and disable KNOX.... Been on that Screen for 5min so far...I also get a Security Notice Stating Unauthorized access to a secured area has been blocked.

..........................................................................

Unistalled SU and Restalled it. Let SU try and Fix KNOX again... Fixed it in just a Few Seconds.
Wroking 100% Now. The last issue was with XMod not the root.
BIG THANKS

Uninstall the app and perform a factory data reset

I can't uninstall the app as it is a system app,all I can do is delete the su binary and superuser apk on root explorer,but after a reboot it will be on my app list again.

[GUIDE] Return your European M8 to 100% Stock Point 5 in that thread has a link to the "unsupersu" .zip file. Download that, flash it and see if supersu is removed.

Root

Hi all,
I will receive my new 10 tomorrow. Is there a guide so I can root it right away? Not sure but I assume it will be a wwe version (401?)
I should unlock it via htcdev and what's next?
Thanks!

As usual .. after unlock, install TWRP and install SuperSU.zip
You need to read and understand this first : http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-10/development/psa-htc-policy-unlocking-bootloader-t3365986
and here is the TWRP : http://forum.xda-developers.com/htc-10/development/recovery-twrp-touch-recovery-t3358139

Thanks for the answer. Both links give me an error in the xda app. Know where to find them but just FYI.
So I need to replace the recovery without doubt. Hmm, not sure if I want that reading the things about ota and stock recovery. I'm actually waiting for mike1986 to create a custom rom for the 10 but up until now no news about that.

Prety interested in this one too... Looked around and on some sites it said that you can do it using various apps... I would also like to keep it as stock as possible but rooted, at least at the beginning

Is there any one touch root solution

What versions of SuperSU are people trying and having success with?
Latest versions had issues on my M9 so had an older version working great!

Nope, and it as much as says so a few posts above yours.

I unlocked my device via htcdev, flashed trwp latest version and sideloaded the last beta version of supersu (2.71). These steps did the trick although some apps that require root (fstrim for example) claim I need to root the device. Rootchecker on the other hand claim my device is rooted. Main reason for me to unlock was adaway to get an almost ad free device.

Was your device encrypted? Thought all devices are and you loose all userdata when you install TWRP. or even when you Unlock via htcDev?

It will wipe when you unlock but unlike previous years, because it is encrypted it will forget its access when you s-off as well.

The update is now available in my region but since I unlocked and rooted, how do I apply this? I assume nothing will get lost? Is there anybody with the ota file so I can at least restore stock recovery?

How could I backup stock recovery? Backing up the rest is done with twrp but stock recovery wasn't possible of course. What I understood was the stock recovery could be pulled from RUU and since I'm on the wwe 401 version I was not afraid I couldn't find that. Only did not expect an ota that quick

Typical verizon removed the "Enable OEM unlock" option from the developer settings. Hopefully someone will figure out temproot quickly.

in my opinion I would not even bother with the OTA now that your unlocked and rooted. you will start seeing custom stuff soon enough. I'm still waiting for any info on mine even being shipped out.

What is the correct root procedure to keep signal?
I've tried:
1 unlock bootloader via htcdev.
2 flash TWRP.
3 flash SuperSU
4 run SunShine
5 re-enable data encryption via settings > storage
It then reboots and I see HTC logo (thought it was encrypting without giving any indication, so I left it overnight) and it was stuck in this state. In the morning I force rebooted and was still unencrypted and without signal, so I attempted step 5 with same result...

You shouldn't need root to change apn.
Settings> connections> mobile networks> access point names> click "add" upper right corner
Remember to click "save" when the apn is added then reboot.

You could try out systemless root. I've had no root related issues using Magisk, and haven't used traditional root since. For G928T, you first have to flash TWRP via Odin. Once the flashing finishes, the phone will reboot. As soon as the screen goes black, hold the volume up + home + power keys until the s6 logo appears. If you pressed on time then you should boot into your new recovery. You will get a warning talking about allowing modifications, you need to slide to allow. From there tap install and flash Magisk (I re-uploaded since v15 gave me boot issues and I couldn't find v14.) Then tap reboot, declining additional installs if prompted. If you can't find Magisk Manager in your apps, install it from here. More information on Magisk can be found on the official thread.

Awesome. I recently purchased a SM-G928T and it's updated to the latest T-Mobile firmware G928TUVS4EQK1 Android 7.0, will this root technique work for this firmware? I've also been looking for a confirmed working root for this device. Thanks

Yeah, I have that exact baseband on my edge+, magisk works no problem. They've updated magisk to 15.2 and I havent had any issues with that, so you can download it from the official thread. Just make sure to enable OEM unlock under developer options to allow for TWRP and Magisk installation. If you install anything without that step, you may be unable to boot because of FRP.

well : I am also having trouble rooting COS 13 ...
I received a (new) Swift for a friend and when I flash SuperSU v2.46 from recovery, the phone reboots and only shows (forever):
Code:
cyanogen
mod
ready
I tried several custom recoveries (twrp 2.7 and 3.0 and CM-13.0).
To recover I needed to fastboot re flash stock.
Note that I could once root COS 12.1 on another Swift phone for another friend just fine.
So this seems a 13.0 specific issue. Perhaps how SuperSU handles Android 6.
Good news is I can take a TWRP backup. But I would also want to be
able to take Titatium Backup and do other things that require root.
Does this ring a bell?
Thanks for enlightening me how to root COS 13.0
