Archive method Failed too

I tried the archived method twice !!

My phone is still not rooted.

Not only that, thanks to the stupid archive method, my phone has all the disabled apps and old settings, sigh.

And nobody has bothered to reply yet.

Not working

Hi Nabeel and others,

First thanks for your post. Unfortunately it won't work for me.

I've checked the settings and they were al right.

The first step goes well, i've connected my Phone and there appears a pop-up with the Phone content.

Eroot detects my Phone as well, but when i start rooting (push the root button) it fails.

The first three things are quickly done, but the last step takes more time and there appears a screen with three lines. The picture of these problem was posted on this forum earlier.

So my question is: does anyone know what to do when this error appears?

I don't know anything about the Chinese language, so i don't know what to do.

I hope anyone can help me!

I have a Sk17a 4.1.0.b.587, made the steps of the post, but unlike our friend there, a window appears for information and can not make root!

I had problems rooting my neo v running on alliance kernel with e root.(sorry [MENTION=4575567]Nabeel.[/MENTION].i m Posting in arc thread. )

I want to let u know that if u see those Three Lines in Chinese it means u don' t have adb drivers or ur device stock based kernel..

Alliance kernel & other that have arc recovery they will show ur device only arc ( even if they are pro,neo,arc s,ray)in sony pc companion . So i just flashed whole .587 ftf including kernel & its done !!u have rooted again.:)if u don't want to oc then stick with Stock kernel, root with this and install 5.0.2.7 cwm recovery from xda( search for it u will easily find it.):):thumbup:

Now a doubt: if I wold like to UNroot (for example to avoid problem with warranty)

how can I do ?

1, you do not need PCC to root.

2, just flash original stock firmware with flashtool.

now I underst. no Unroot tool but I can flash again a standard rom (or I can use the CWM x-parts backup/restore): it was so simple ... excuse me to be so noob :o !

[Xperia Arc General] dev neo:
Wrong.....when you had rooted with Eroot notice that eroot will show a desk line ( - ) before root button.It means "ROOT" button..& NOW when u need to unroot connect ur device with debugging & u will notice,a button named root BUT it has some Chinese logo before the ROOT word...It means "UNROOT"...Just click on that & it will unroot ur phone.SO EASY.THANKS to Developer.:):thumbup:
[Xperia Arc General] rebus55555:
Many Tanks !

This is a better solution for me becouse:

1.is more direct :ok:

2. I cannot use a cwm recovery by X-PARTS becouse the system partition is wiped by the stock rom

so basically to installa a recovery I have to set up the root to reinstall x-parts ... and that goobye warrantyes

[Xperia Arc General] boomerk:
I have an issue similar to posts 41 and 42 on this thread. I'm running an xperia arc from around 2011 - LT15a with the 4.1.B.0.587 Build number. I'm new to this rooting malarky and at least want to rid my phone of some of the bloat and free up some space. I think I have a grasp of the process. I just want to know if it's worth even trying the "one step" Eroot method, or just go for the alternative Nabeel suggested in post #42. If it's worth trying to run Eroot - and if it fails, is it easy to get the phone back to where I am now?

One last question is that I haven't seen anything about carriers on this thread.. Does it matter? For the record I'm in Canada and on Rogers. I've read through BlueChip's method with the DoomLord kernel, but I like Nabeel's description since it seems a little clearer to me.

Advice?

Thanks!

I know its just a colour but i quite like the white as I'm sure others do to. But with very little In the way of actual confirmation I have been disappointed.

Every day I check xda for news or leaked info etc but nothing.

Surprisingly though I found this info else where on the nexus 4 production dates thread and seems to be widely missed. Although It may have been brought up I am unaware of it.

Viva... Something or other (sorry on the mobile app and can't remember your username) posted up a link to a service update PDF from lg which includes lots of info about changes made and dates these were introduced

If you look at the most recent ones at the end of march that discuss changing the supports for the volume rocker on the phone it specifically states two different part numbers one for a white volume rocker and one for a black.

So if this is at the end of march then a may launch of white seems ever more likely

It says absolutely nothing about having 2 different apps on top of each other at the same time. I think you are confusing yourself mate.
