Help, how do i root my S4 Mini with CM13? - Galaxy S 4 Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone ,
i have the problem that i cannot root my S4 Mini (GT-I9195) with CyanogenMod 13.0 (=Marshmallow) no matter what i do....
All the instructions i've found are the same as the one on this board but you can already see it saying that the Rootkit "S4Mini_RootKit_v2.zip" only works with Stock Rom. I've tried v2 and v1 nevertheless (just to check) but it doesn't work.
I also went into developer mode and enabled root acces for ADB and Apps but that doesn't help.
So in short: Does anyone know how to get root on an S4 Mini with CM13 ???
I would really appreciate some help thank you!!
(gonna try & fix it, and edit if i find out myself... )
Edit: Oh and i had it rooted once before, just forgot how i managed that (knox is already triggered)

if you have cm13, then you have already root only deactivated. go to deleloper settings and activate it

Thanks for your answer. But as stated, i have already done that. Still no root acces (says SuperSu and RootChecker).
I'll try to re-flash the newest CM13 rom, lets see if that helps.
I did a factory reset and since than it was lost. I didn't think that would make root go away but apparently...
EDIT: I made a new factory reset and re-flashed the newest CM13. So now it works, problem solved.
It's weird that a normal factory resett erases root .... anyways all good now

I rooted my phone succesfully and I've got the Superuser app, but when I try to use the lucky patcher or Titanium backup, it says: "No root acces found!"

i think you have to install busybox (find it in playstore) for this.

Do I need to unlock the boot loader first? Because this didnt work for me.
Edit: 5th time rebooted, tried again, it worked!

It works on all Lt26.
Be sure you have all drivers instaled properly and you are connected DIRECTLY to your pc, no usb-hubs etc.

how do i install recovery and flash any rom without unlocking my bootloader i am new to xperia family plz help binary
SIM lock?
I rooted my phone using the initial method (I couldn't wait) and flashed CM9. My bootloader is unlocked and I have been running it for about a week. The mobile network is always alternating between airplane mode so I have no service at any time. I fixed it before but I can't remember how. I backed up my system at two different points (while the problem was fixed and I had service). But when I restored them, I face the same problem with the network. Any help?
Working on S and probably acro S

Help me help me please, I'm so stupid , I have an AT&T S3 unlocked and I'm currently using Tmobile...
I rooted my phone, and I used DEBLOATER FREE, to debloat some of the stuffs in the list. I was actually being careful with the selection. Anyway, I deleted some files, and when I restarted the phone. I'm no longer getting signal. Can someone please help me. I need to get it fix soon. Any helps and advices at this point would be greatly appreciated. Please by the way, i tried to go to setting ->More setting->Mobile Networks, and it freezzed and received a message "unfortunately, settings has stopped"
I used mskip's tool to rooted my phone, if i used that tool to relfash my stock recovery, would this solve the issue?
or I'm on ICS 4.0.4 right now, If i Update the phone to JB would this solve the issue.

First of, thanks you so much. I don't think you attach a link for me yet. A quick update, I checked my imei, and it said null/null. so if i used mskip tool to do a efs partition would that solve the issue?
I'm downloading the ics stock rom right now, and I will keep you update. I will probably do it, via mskip's tool. What I'm wondering is, if i used samsung kies and update to JB, would this solve the issue also?
the phone is working fine, it's just i can't make call

I did more research and I think I narrow it down to EFS, mb i deleted my efs folder while debloated my phone, or some random reason...do you know any possible fix? because I didn't back it up. if I'm to re flash stock rom, do you think it will fix this issue?
I found this guide right here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1264021
so i re-flashed the stock rom using mskip tool, and now i can make call, but now i'm getting a bunch of messages like process android.process.acore has stopped, and touchwiz home error and i can't get pass that. Please Advise
[SOLVED] thank you so much, got everything back to normal. one more questions, since i re-flashed the stock rom, I can still access CWM recovery, but as i tried to install superuser, it said I can't...this is my first time so can you lead me to the right path?
Just re root your device using the same method.

Formerly Rooted S4 is jacked up after factory reset. I need toreinstall T mobile os?

Hello,
I was talking to a T mobile representative. He recommended me to this forum for help. I would like to reinstall a T-mobile os on to an s4 that was formerly rooted with Kingo Root. I am hoping this will fix my phone's problem which is not allowing my wifi to enable, or if it does not fix the phone problem I would at least like to make it look like it was never rooted. Any help is greatly apprieciated!
I am not sure If I am in the right area for help. Please let me know If I need to post somewhere else.
Thanks,
Hank
Here's all the official TMo ROMs for the S4: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/database/SGH-M919/TMB/
Thanks so much for the help. Is there anything I should do before reinstalling the os. So, far I have factory reset the device.

The above will flash the stock ROM; if you're wanting to completely hide the fact that you rooted (in order to file a warranty claim), you'll need to use TriangleAway to attempt to reset the warranty bit.
Thanks so much for the help! After installing one of the older os on to the phone and updating it from there, it works like a charm. My phone no longer indicates, as far as I can tell, that it was rooted, and the wifi works too!

If you see any small colored text in the upper left corner immediately after powering on, then it shows that it's been rooted.

cm 14.1 wrong mac adress 02:00:00:00:00 [d722]/lg g3beat

Hi, sorry for my English
A month earlier, I used cm13 without problems . After the update (I did not know, about fresh install) by the OTA to CM14.1 I have a problem with the mac address. Return to stock version helps, but re-installing CyanogenMod no matter what 12,13,14.1, any custom rom changed my mac address to 02:00:00:00:00. How I turn off the wifi and I reboot phone, my mac is 02:00:00:00:00, but after turn on WiFi changed to 00:00:00:00:00. I tried reflash TWRP, change aboot.bin, nothing works.I installed the update, I had bootloop, tried reinstalling the CM and I make wipe internal partition. Maybe that's the problem? I'm trying to solve this problem 3 weeks help please!
If you can please give me links to bootloader 100%working, and twrp.
I use from http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/lg-g3s-beat-d722-thread-t3110048 for KitKat (now I use KK version), and something's wrong :-/
I have this roms on my computer: 20a,20b,20d,10b,10d form all I try install cyanogenmod without success :crying:
Now use 10d, rooted, aboot from this post from xda, twrp 3.0.2, I tested all TWRP not helped :silly:
Thank you for your time !

*Help* I unrooted on a rom and now I can't root my phone.

Device: LG G3
Rom: [AOSP EXTENDED V3.0] [LG G3 - D855] [OFFICIAL] [NOUGAT R9] [by MARCHETTO96]
Hey again,
So i'm running this rom right and I was reinstalling my apps onto my phone and one app I need to log into but it noticed it was running root (Snapchat). So I followed someones advice on here on XDA to fully unroot the device and I did that I fully unrooted the app from the phone and then here comes the worst part that I realized this will kick me out of recovery and i wont be able to get back in because I need to get on to recovery to re install superSU back on. So im stranded on nougat 7.1 and dont have access to root at all except for root access on developer settings but that doesn't nothing at all I re installed the app on play store but its telling me the phone is unrooted of course.
Anyone can help me out here. It would be greatly appreciated .
P.S I did get snapchat working after that method kinda did work/backfire at the same time.
Do you have nandroid backup? If yes, flash that. It will be all well.
Other hard method is to downgrade to KitKat and then root and then TWRP. ?
I do not have a back up for this ROM but I have other back ups on my phone that still works. I can't do it as well cause I neeed root to l get it to work.

Backups don't need root. They need TWRP to be flashed.

Yeah thats the only thing I can't get access to TWRP. When I fully unrooted It would not let me in my recovery at all just bootloops until i take the battery out then it reboots to the system fine.
Just going to ask a hopefully obvious question that I know doesn't help but I'm intrigued... Why didn't you just unroot using the supersu app?

I did do that....now my main problem is I don't have root anymore and I can't get access to my recovery and plus I'm running an Nougat rom so I need to find a way to re-root my phone again to get it all back.
The supersu app doesn't delete the recovery on your phone so something had to have gone wrong. Either way the best bet for you I would imagine anyway would be to follow a guide to install recovery - it's been that long since I had to do it I can't be of much help but I'm willing to look into the easiest options for you if you want. There will be a way, pretty much guaranteed

I know that my recovery is still there but It wont allow me on there for some reason. But im thinking that If I factory reset the phone it would PROBABLY fix the problem but theres one risk that it could probably happen and im guessing that it will go straight into a bootloop. If you want to help me It would be great
I'll research for you mate!
Did you modify your ro.product.model in build.prop file and when supersu app asks if you want to flash stock recovery you pressed yes?
For example if you have enabled google assistant by changing your ro.product.model to pixel or pixel xl and after that unrooted and pressed yes to restore stock recovery (to get OTA to work), supersu flashes pixel recovery and thats why you can't get to recovey again.
There are ways to get your phone back to factory clean and start over.
Okay I have spent a whole day figuring out this problem but i finally managed to fix it.
So I went onto download mode
opened up LG Flash Tool 2014
Flashed an LG KDZ File managed to work after the 2nd time
10 or 15 mins later it finally worked
LG started to boot up and started loading in the apps
THEN
I rooted the phone again using this forum: https://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/general/root-twrp-marshmallow-d855-30b-t3286268
Then I finally got back onto the glorious TWRP rom.
I re-installed the ASOP rom again.
I'd Like to thank Juhkimo, Jahanzaibawan and pffcouk for helping me out. You guys got my phone back to what it was before so thanks a ton
