I used 0.9.14 so that shouldn't be the problem. I can su in adb shell but adb root doesn't work ("...cannot run in production builds").

I just want to edit the build.prop but /system is ro. Different root explorer apps or build.prop editor don't request root and don't mount /system as rw.

edit: I managed to edit build.prop sucessfully now with another root explorer app. The only problem remaining is there was no notification asking for root access!! That means any app can get root without me knowing? How do I change this behaviour or unroot it?

I had my phone rooted on B118 but i updated to B119 and root was gone. now all 4 methods dont work, even the impactor, it shows a screen saying payload for a split second, but nothing else happens.

i have SuperSU installed but normal installation always fails and i dont want to use cwm
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Gwystyl:
My attempt to root B122 failed the first time because there was a program running in the background (bluestacks). Because of this the computer thought I had a Samsung N7000 connected, which was recognized by the root program.

So if rooting doesn't work, I'd check what other programs are running, and disable the ones which could interfere.

Second I'd try to reinstall drivers.

Third you should check if developer mode is activated (click 'build' 7 times in software info) and if usb debugging is enabled

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] Ottomaani0:
Just do a factory reset if you send it to service. This will remove root.

No one will be able to tell if it has been rooted or not. :)
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] alex.79:
Factory reset don't remove root. If you want to remove root you must flash stock firmware via update app.

Oops, you're right. Sorry about that, didn't mean to disinform :)

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] La_Aguja:
This is the "RootGenius" app (roottool.exe)... I've serious problems with this app (P6 semi-bricked), when I've updated from B122 to B125... After start "rooting" process, the app updates itself (w/out permission) and starts giving me all kinds of errors ... The end result is my P6 stuck in a vicious cycle of starts and restarts, without accepting any order.

Tremendous shock!. Luckily, I managed to change the microSD for one other clean (fresh formatted and with B122 ROM alone, inside) and after several attempts got to accept the new ROM.

All the sleepless night ...

At the end, I've installed Lesscro driver package (over WinXP, 32 bit) and rooted the B125 with eRoot w/out hassles (until now)

Best regards & HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

I am currently running hyd52rom v7 with twrp recovery, i think i have firmware b125( i don't know were to see it anymore, i had the B111 and after that update to 125 bot it didn't booted so i have installed twrp and hyd52.)

Can i find a flashable zip for rooting?

VRoot worked on B510 can't install SuperSu

Hi, I actually rooted my P6 with the latest version of VRoot LINK It was a bit difficult because on my PC it didn't detect the phone, Changed from computer installed Huawei Drivers and Installed app...

To install just press the rigth bottom button.. Wait till say ROOT in Green.. Press ROOT and wait two reboots...

To authorize an app to get root access press the right button when chinesse popup shows... Also I recomend to disable DATA to this app (in Huawei Network Apps )...

Now I'm trying to install SuperSu to replace the chinesse app but I can't.... When it start to download Binaries and press to unistall alternative app it says there was an error and I must reboot... After rebooting I lost root and SuperSu still give the same error... Anyway, to get ROOT access again unnistall SuperSu (important) and use Vroot again...
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] RoarAbelson:
Hi, i have faced same issue every time when i root my Huawei P6. That how i kept root when installing SuperSU was i opened supersu->update binaries it like freeze in that part. When it wont response anything i deleted supersu app and downloaded it again, when i opened it it asks update binaries and somehow it starts update and it works. Dont reboot when you delete supersu, just download it again. I hope this works with you.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] RealCaracas:

Lost root again and SuperSu still with the error...

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] miz_pimp:
Yeh, the first time I opened the Recent apps, SuperSU wasn't there either, but when I opened it the second time, it was there.

Kinguser and other questions

Hi all,

firstly, thanks everyone for all the help and great information about rooting android devices.

I used the 3rd method (root genius) to root my huawei p6 android phone. All seems to have gone well, but I do have a few of questions.

It installed a few things automatically. This was expected as i'd used another method to root an older LG phone. In the earlier case, it installed super user... This root genius installed some strange chinese app which I promptly uninstalled. The Hi Suite daemon or such was installed (which I also didn't want), and also one app called 'Kinguser'.

I can't find much out about Kinguser.

In opening it it seems to be used for managing root permissions.

I vaguely remember there being another perhaps more standard app for doing the same thing.

1. What are peoples opinions about this 'Kinguser' app?

2. What are the better alternatives?

3. At this stage, can I uninstall Kinguser for such another alternative without somehow losing root? (i.e., with system app uninstaller)

4. Has anyone noticed any nasty malware from rooting with any of these rooting applications (such as this root genius)

5. Is there any such thing as an open-source android rooting application?

Before opening up kinguser I installed superSU. I think really superSU and Kinguser are the same kind of thing right?

So, i'm pretty sure I can just uninstall Kinguser and superSU will do it's job. But, since i'm new to phone rooting, if someone has some tips for me, it would be great.

Thanks in advance for any answers!

the hi suite deamon is used for connection to the PC..kinguser might be replaced by the usual super su..and the other strange things you can uninstall..
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] svaens:
accidentally ruined the root

So, I decided to try and remove this Kinguser.

It seemed already like SuperSU was doing its job as the root manager...

So anyway, after removal, SuperSU always wants to try and update binaries, and can't,

BusyBox complains that there's something wrong or missing "problem opening a shell with root access. This is either being caused by superuser/supersu or by a device that is improperly rooted".

What is the best/safest means of getting back to a clean root?

Uninstall supersu and try another root method?
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] blueIBI:
yes..

the besteht way is using twrp (2.7.1.0)..
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] svaens:
hmmm... from what I have read, if I understand correctly , to use TWRP, which is a tool, it needs to be installed.

For it to be installed (which it is not) I need to have root.

And for all intents and purposes, I do not seem to have a working root.

Therefore, I can't install TWRP.

Therefore I can't fix SuperSU via TWRP.

Never mind.

I tried re-rooting using the SRS One CLick Tool (it looks the most reasuring) but it doesn't seem to be able to even recognize my device.

I restarted RootGenius, and it seemed to go through the rounds, restarted my phone a couple times (that didn't happen the first time) but in the end, it seems to have done the trick.

That is, i've got root again. Working.

Albeit, with Kinguser.

So, obviously last time I removed Kinguser, SuperSU was not able to take its place automatically.

It left the system in a bit of a mess. Root ... but with a missing controller. Broken.

How do you replace one for another? Obviously just removing one and installing another does not seem to be the correct method.

How does one register the super user controller (such as SuperSU or Kinguser) manually?

That is, I could probably do it now that i've got root working.... configure my way free of Kinguser.

That is, if it is neccessary, or advantageous?

Everyone speaks of Super user or SuperSU ....

Kinguser is never mentioned.

Any reason beyond Kinguser is maybe new? It's not even in google play .... What's the deal?
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] blueIBI:
you don't have to be rooted to be able to installiert twrp..

twrp is installed through adb commands..

read the thread about twrp..

twrp replaces the stock recovery..
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] lesscro:
TWRP is a recovery...

When you restart your device..; TWRP can ask if nnot detected, to try to root your device by installing su librairy...

But after each restart my device is un-rooted?? And i have to root it again.

[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] jackpot77:

Do you have the same problem? I try to figure out what i am doing wrong...
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] mixxx5:
Same thing doing to me too. But with little difference, not root gone after every restart. Long time everything was fine, and today after restart root is gane. Kinguser, which was installed rooting with rootgenius is still here and can't be removed but have no function. Resolution?!
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] jackpot77:
My problem is the same as yours.

KingUser has no function after restart and no permission to root anymore. I need to re-root my phone every time i restart it.

It makes me go nuts.... Anyone got an idea?
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] mixxx5:
I am looking forward to seeing what is going wrong. Maybe updating kinguser make to lost root. Now I'm root again and will not upade kinguser... [MENTION=1451833]jackpot77[/MENTION] you try same, maybe will succeed.
[Huawei Ascend P6, Mate] jackpot77:
Ok, thanks for your feedback! I will do the same once restarted and rooted again.:good:

Ok i restarted my phone yesterday and i checked with

Root Checker

.

Result -----> ''Sorry! This device does not have proper root access.''

Than i checked with

Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper

. Result -----> Device rooted YES -----> Root permission granted NO.

So basically the device is rooted, but without root permission.

And KingUser is still on device, but is not working anymore....
