Hi.

Thanks for this.

Edit.

After rebooting my device, i try another to root and it's work.

But i'ts impossible to update Super SU binary :/

Thanks
[Sony Cross-Device General] g27:
it seem it was not rooted !!!!
[Sony Cross-Device General] zxz0O0:
Did you use the SuperSU from market? Because it's a known issue this SuperSU can not update binary. Use latest one from here: http://download.chainfire.eu/447/SuperSU/UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.99r4.zip

What do you mean? Did you check with Root check app? What is the output of install.bat?

[Sony Cross-Device General] zxz0O0:
Yes, you will lose root though. But simply run this again after update.

No. This does not touch bootloader. It's recommend to backup DRM keys after rooting with this method.

[Sony Cross-Device General] isimsizkullan:
thats awesome news!

but i must ask this, how to install supersu? shall we pull the apk file from the zip and install it manually or flash via stock recovery?
[Sony Cross-Device General] g27:
Thé 2 méthode works !
[Sony Cross-Device General] isimsizkullan:
sorry cant understand, i meant both working or second one working?

a)install apk which pulled from zip

b)install zip with stock recovery

so which one? :)

thanks man

by the way i am already rooted with locked bl, thats why i dont try it myself, i am asking this questions to teach others

edit: i think manually installing apk should work according to this

Ran the easy root v3 on Xperia Z2 6503 on .402 firmware. Everything executed correctly, I had root and was able to update SuperSU binaries. I can run root apps like Titanium Backup etc. However, I don't have rw access to system. Root Explorer failed to mount /system as rw even though permission granted by SuperSU. As a result I cannot install busybox. Can anyone advise?

Thanks!

tryed with different pc and all worked... it is adb driver problem.. however tr signed is created when you execute install.bat (inside files folder)
[Sony Cross-Device General] nhnt11:
People having issues with r/w remount, it's because this chargemon hack doesn't seem to be working properly.

Temporarily, do the following from an adb shell (or a terminal emulator app) - you don't need to reflash stuff or whatever:

$su
#cd /data/local/tmp
#./writekmem `./busybox cat ./ricaddr` 0
#mount -o remount,rw /system

You should have rw on /system after this. Do this at your own risk.
[Sony Cross-Device General] zxz0O0:
I'm aware of the problem, sadly none of the people I sent a test version is responding.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Seifer1975:
Doesnt work. I get alot of errors which say .... "Read-only file system". I also try to remove root using SuperSU so that I can try again but it also doesn't work....

Updated: I tried rerunning the easyroot again. Apparently, you'll get /system rw after rooting. However, the moment you reboot, you lose that forever.

[Sony Cross-Device General] nhnt11:
I've got a working fix, PM'ing the OP about it. (I've tested mine so yeah.. we'll work it out!) :)

Never mind, not a good fix. I'll keep trying...
[Sony Cross-Device General] sbr_23:
Yup.. once you reboot then you lose system write access. Before you reboot you have to install dual recovery and flash the supersu.zip. once you've done that then you will have write access no matter how many times you reboot.
[Sony Cross-Device General] Frostbiter:
I was successfully able to root my Z2 tablet SGP 511 on the .402 firmware using this method. I also used the latest SuperSU apk, v2.00, that I got from chainfires website, not the play store. I installed it before rooting, and was able to update the binary afterwards.

[Sony Cross-Device General] ptoner:
Root finally worked for me after using the tr_signed.apk .

Many thanks for giving me root access. Don't think I will bother with the ROMs for a while.

Used them last year and managed to soft brick the phone. So staying away from recoveries etc for now.
[Sony Cross-Device General] CosTuMe:
still... i had re-rooted it with the new version, but still i cant seem to get the root(the root checker says i have but when some app tries to write into system patition it says that i dont have permissions to write there)

help me :confused:

[Sony Cross-Device General] nhnt11:
You have root according to the second block of output you posted.
[Sony Cross-Device General] troon95:
Yes, it was enabled, otherwise, the app wouldn't have executed.

I was doing it from Linux with the install.sh and it didn't work, but i have just tried it using windows and it worked.

[Sony Cross-Device General] erikrh:
yup
[Sony Cross-Device General] nhnt11:
Well I would try to help you but there may be little point in it - I've been collaborating with the OP and the next version should fix all these issues. This includes fixing the inability to remount,rw after a reboot, we've discarded the chargemon hack and instead are piggybacking on mount itself (it will disable RIC seamlessly when you run it as root)

Stay tuned.

Rooted using the tool

Downloaded the latest version of SuperSU from Google Play (v2.0 which was released today)

Ran SuperSU once and updated the binary

Reboot and deleted two apps from System->app folder using root explorer so RW is working

Rebooted again and deleted another app from System->app just to maksure so RW is working

Installed an old version of Dual recovery(2.7.94) using SuperSU method

Thanks

Dididn't test my Z2 as I already rooted using DoomLords tool

tried your method mate, it seems to be working for now. I guess we should wait for the permanent fix as im not sure if this will fix it in the long term. Thanks a lot for explaining it thoroughly.:good:
[Sony Cross-Device General] MrMagic:
Your method did not work entirely on my SGP511 Z2 tablet. I was still not able to mount /system in r/w mode until I did this manually in an adb shell.

After that, I followed your instructions to install the Superuser.apk, update the binaries (without rebooting), installing the dualrecovery and installing the SuperSU zip through Phil's recovery.

By the way a dualrecovery especially for the Z2 tablet is now available:

I can confirm that this works perfectly now. Is the dual recovery working now or do we still have to use philz recovery as I read on the easy root thread that TWRP/CW are not yet supported on z2 and are buggy and one should not try to access them after rooting via this method.
[Sony Cross-Device General] zxz0O0:
What is your device? If it's Z2 then you are doing something wrong. Make sure you are not using old files from v3.
[Sony Cross-Device General] adeyb:
Apologies, I wasn't very descriptive.

It's a Z2.

Yesterday - I installed your v3 and with your list of things to do:

Backup TA - Worked Perfectly!!!

Install Dualrecovery - Failed

Install SU - It says "Installation Failed - Please reboot and try again"

Installed xposed - Some items worked, so root is working - Although there were error messages about installation issues

(RW issue - which you're aware of... so I waited for a fix)

Today - I uninstalled SU and re-installed v4. (I've done this a few times - whilst my boss is out of my room!!!)

But still can't RW in Root Manager and SU still not getting past above error message.

My Z2 is rooted - but not able to RW it seems.

Am I missing something obvious?

BTW - thank you for your time.

Just an update to my previous comments on Z2. I've repaired my phone using Sony Companion to reset it to pre-root status (at least i assume that's what it does).

I've tried installing v4 again.

But I STILL can't install SuperSu or get RW access.

I noticed this line in the installation "data/local/tmp/" - Could this be (some how) using the old v3 files on my computer?? (Just a thought)

(Edit - The above is located on my phones root... So should have been overwritten when I did the repair... Damn...)

After that SuperSu should work. Use the "full unroot" option in SuperSu to completely remove root, then do

After that re-run v4 and post the complete output of the script here if it doesn't work.
