Hi

Only fyi:

There must be another reason. Now I flashed the SX Z 6603 back to244 firmware, rooted it, installed CWM-Recovery and made OTA-update to the .67 firmware without any problems. Then CMW-Recovery was gone (this was for testing done). Root was ok. Then I did OTA-update to the new .569 but it stops on installation again and after reboot there is an error message that installation failed. I don't have any customizing mods on it, nothing.

So weird - one Z works the other one not...

Next step will be flashing the new .569 by this tipp on the second Z:

Thanks for your reply. Even this did not work, the error showed was `incorrect root'.

Thanks for your help. HAve a good day.

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] gregwee:
I didn't find any info on this thread, so I guess I'll have to post...

I just bought a Z1 and it comes with 14.1.G.1.526 installed. Reading the replies a few posts above, someone rooted their Z1 with .518 without flashing it to .534, so I figured I'd give it a try.

However, now, the interface for V33 is different as it doesn't use 1) Normal or 2) Special any more...

It's now:

0) Xperia Root by cubeundcube

1) New Standard-Root (thx Ariel Berkman)

2) New Xperia Root by Goroh_kun (Xperia Z, Xperia V [JellyBean] ...)

3) Old

4) Old-Special (for example: Sony Tablet S, Medion Lifetab)

G) Google Glass Mode (thx Saurik for the ab file)

x) Unroot

So, I tried 0.. It will give two replies: "Please connect your device with enabled USB-Debugging ..." and "Copy needed files ..." and that's it. Nothing else happens. Nothing happens to the phone as well.

I looked at the batch file, and found that the first command, "stuff\adb.exe wait-for-device" just hangs there. Nothing else happens. I've already made sure that "adb devices" gives a correct reply and sees the phone.

Anyone know what's causing this not to work?

----- Update: Solved -----------

Tried it on another PC and it worked. No idea why it happened to the first one though..

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kingvortex:
Unlock your bootloader and flash a kernel with a custom recovery, then flash a superuser zip.

There's no way to root 569 without unlocking the bootloader currently.

Next time you have a question, you should search the thread before posting. This has been asked and answered multiple times already.

I don't know, but make sure that you don't give anyone that may try to help any useful information, like what device you have or what firmware version it's running! :D

Edit - I see your post title does state your device. FYI, people using Tapatalk or the XDA premium app cannot see post titles, so it may help in future to put all pertinent information in the body of your post. :)

If you try some of the other modes and your device still isn't rooted, then you will have to assume that this tool will not root your device. The exploits used are patched or simply do not work on some devices.

Kingo collects your device ID/serial numbers etc and sends them to China. If that's OK with you, go ahead and use it.

i think u wrong bro kingo does not collect nothing is another chinese root
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kingvortex:
*sigh*

This has been discussed at length.

They were collecting IMEI numbers at one point as well and only stopped when they got caught. There is absolutely no reason that a root toolkit should need to access the internet to work.

That's not to mention that they modified open source software created by others for their tool and only published sources after they got caught doing that.

There's a lot of other suspicious things about them, but I feel I would be wasting my time telling you anyway, "bro". :rolleyes:

If someone has no root though all was OK here is a tip:

Nice job! But for some reason you missed something to make it work:

in the RunMe.bat file, the line:

:NORMAL
echo Going to copy files to it's place
stuff\adb.exe shell "/data/local/tmp/busybox mount -o remount,rw /system && /data/local/tmp/busybox mv /data/local/tmp/su /system/xbin/su && /data/local/tmp/busybox mv /data/local/tmp/Superuser.apk /system/app/Superuser.apk && /data/local/tmp/busybox cp /data/local/tmp/busybox /system/xbin/busybox && chmod 06755 /system/xbin/su && chmod 655 /system/app/Superuser.apk && chmod 755 /system/xbin/busybox && rm /data/local.prop && reboot"

should be changed with:

:NORMAL
echo Going to copy files to it's place
stuff\adb.exe shell "/data/local/tmp/busybox mount -o remount,rw /system && /data/local/tmp/busybox mv /data/local/tmp/su /system/xbin/su && /data/local/tmp/busybox mv /data/local/tmp/Superuser.apk /system/app/Superuser.apk && /data/local/tmp/busybox cp /data/local/tmp/busybox /system/xbin/busybox && chown 0.0 /system/xbin/su && chmod 06755 /system/xbin/su && chmod 655 /system/app/Superuser.apk && chmod 755 /system/xbin/busybox && rm /data/local.prop && reboot"

Then it works ok...

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] chairsz:
I used this method for a few of my tabs and nothing was sent. But to the suspicious over protective person over there all you have to do is use the tool in offline mode pretty clear cut ain't it? A remote user can't access your device offline period. At the endings the day it's up to you to try it or not many firmwares claim that their not 100 percent safe yet we flash em all all da time to and risk the infamous brick status.

Just my 2 cents
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] pwlsrs:
is there any chance to see working rooting method for Xperia T with locked bootloader for latest JB 4.3?
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] kingvortex:
Offline mode? Can you please point me to where this is detailed, or screenshot it as I am unwilling to run Kingo on my PC at all. Their changelogs indicate nothing to suggest that they've implemented it yet, despite promising to months ago.

As for not sending anything, Kingo themselves admit on their Facebook page that hardware IDs and serial numbers among lots of other things are collected by the tool.

Even if none of that were true, their tool is mainly a collection of other devs work in any case. They didn't even comply with the necessary open source licenses until they got caught modifying open source projects for their own use.

Long story short; if you're willing to trust a closed source app created by a bunch of bottom feeders like that with unrestricted access to your device, then that's your business. Just don't go telling others that it's OK, or in any way comparable to flashing roms/kernels from devs here that publish source.

Anyway, this is becoming off topic here, so that's my last word to you on this matter.

Cheers. :)
