Turbo Support has been merged into the main APK, and no longer needs mofo/Kingroot to work.

This version requires you to be on the 5.1 SU4TL-44 with the matching 3.10.40-perf-g90ddf4a Kernel.

Happy Holidays !

[B][COLOR="Red"]SunShine 3.2 BETA for Droid Turbo [/COLOR][/B](All other devices use the 3.1.XX release for now, as this is untested on other devices). Again DO NOT USE THIS ON ANY OTHER MODELS.

This is a beta, why? It needs more testing and has some bugs, but it is safe and it works. We wanted to get it out today, over the next day or two we will patch some bugs and push another version. (No need to upgrade if you get unlocked).

This version requires you to be on the 5.1 SU4TL-44 with the matching 3.10.40-perf-g90ddf4a Kernel.

You must either be rooted with Mofo, or Temp rooted with the latest kingroot from [url]http://kingroot.net[/url] (yes it works on the 5.1 SU4TL-44 release, it may take a couple tries, and is free).

When Kingroot finishes rooting, go to the setting and uncheck and recheck the option called "Root Authorization" (or something like that), than go into Sunshine,

You MUST have wifi on, even if not connected to wifi.

If it gets "stuck" for more than 5 minutes on a test, turn phone off, then check your bootlaoder. If its not unlocked, try again. It can take a couple goes (you only get charged once, and we guarantee it will work). KingRoot can also cause it to fail if their root bugs out for some reason, solution is to just try again. Uninstalling Kingroot , rebooting then reinstalling may be needed in some cases if it fails.

SunShine 3.2 BETA for DroidTurbo ONLY:k[/url]

It's not working for my Turbo :( Kingroot works and even grants root access to Sunshine, but Sunshine gets stuck on the second "Testing..." and it will sit there forever. The progress bar keeps moving and resetting, but it doesn't go past this screen.

My general failing process:

1. Uninstall Kingroot/Sunshine if it exists.

2. reboot

3. install Kingroot/Sunshine

4. attempt root with Kingroot

4a. if root fails then uninstall everything, reboot. Reinstall.

4b if root is successful then immediately open Sunshine.

5. Run Sunshine, grant root access.

6. Get stuck on "Testing..." with a moving progress bar for hours.

7. Cry.

I've waited for up to an hour at the Testing... but when I quit and went to recovery it is still locked. I have uninstalled/rebooted/reinstalled/tried again many times, but it always gets stuck on the same spot.

So did you just try it? Or did you flash to stock?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] rayjr13:
So this should

not

work on 3.10.40-perf-g9df477d kernel / SU2-12 ??

Any reason I wouldn't be able to flash/get back to KK, or bootloader precautions for "re-locking"?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jcase:
It shouldnt work on it

Unknown on flashing to KK, probably cant flash lower level firmware to KK, possibly flash KK rom

Don't relock, as you wont get unlock again

Kingroots mobile app is not working on my turbo 5.1. Lots of reinstalled and reboots, to no effect. I'm hoping the PC procedure will work when I get home
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jcase:
Mobile app works, takes many tries. Remove any other root app besides kingroot/sunshine. No supersu etc, remove others.

Enable Wifi, and try.

If it fails, uninstall kingroot, reboot try again

It wasnt a thinley veiled threat, it was a clear warning. Modifying anything that runs in the bootloader is dangerous, if your first attempt doesnt work perfect, you can kiss your phone goodbye.

Successful to a few tries with king root but got it done
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] mad3963:
I ended up going the PC route. Spent nearly 2 hours with the mobile app before trying the PC. Worked on first try with PC.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Einsteindks:
Got the app working, uninstall/reinstall/etc, how'd you fare with S 3.2? Many tries, still doesn't see root. Payback, I guess, for being so easily installed back on the droid Maxx.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] mad3963:
That's the issue I was having with the mobile Kingroot app. Would say I had root, but Sunshine couldn't get root. Once I got root on Kingroot's PC app, Sunshine went off without a hitch.

Like I said, took me a good 2 hours, but I finally got unlocked. Just keep at it, you'll get there.

Now if I can just find time to install TWRP and flash a ROM. But, my 8.5 month old grandson is staying with me and he takes priority.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Einsteindks:
Anyone tech savvy to help this poor, ignorant boob to have the damned Chinese (frustration, not offense) translate in the installation windows of Kingroot PC version?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] mad3963:
That did suck. I just kinda went from experience as to what buttons to click. Interesting that the mobile app is in English, but no English version for the PC app.

Once we have unlocked with sunshine should we just leave the app there or would you suggest we remove it. Thanks Pete

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] UDPoster:
never mind.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] UDPoster:
Yey, so I got permanent root on my m8, s-off, and bootloader is unlocked. Thank you so much for the guide!!!!!

I installed TWRP using TWRP manager from app store.

Couple questions. During SU it bumped me down to 4.17.605.5. If I click on software update it displays new update is available.

If I update will I loose root?

Second question. When I open SuperSU it says new binaries need to be downloaded. If I choose reboot with TWRP app just closes, and it says to reboot manually to recovery. The Normal process also doesn't work. What exactly is it trying to do?

Update: I downloaded superSu binary UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zp, and used TWRP to flash them. When I open SuperSU it keeps saying binary needs to be updated. When I go through Root Checker Pro it says Superuser App installed: SuperSU 2.46, and Kinguser 4.60, Super user binary File: Installed.

How come SuperSU keeps saying binary needs to be updated?

Thank You!
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] dottat:
You are s-off. That will allow you to flash su/TWRP regardless of what updates you flash. IF you want to stay stock rooted you can simply flash the latest s-on RUU i have posted in the vzw general section. Then reflash TWRP (I do NOT recommend using TWRP manager as it can and has flashed recovery to wrong partitions in the past) Then flash the latest supersu.zip available to root the rom.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jcase:
as long as you have root via mofo or kingroot
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] UDPoster:
Ah yes I saw that one 4.17.605.9: http://xdaforums.com/verizon-htc-on...zip-ruu-m8vzw-5-0-1-s-off-onlynewest-t3047103. Pre-rooted too. :D Should have just installed it before re-setting up my phone. heh.

So what would happen if I will allow it to update regular way? Either through software update on the phone, or through HTC Sync?

Thank You.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] dottat:
No dude. Re read my post. Then take this conversation over to the appropriate thread. There's no need to wipe.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Einsteindks:
Damn. Folks, I'm out. Countless tries, countless reboots, installs, uninstalls, even throw in a few cache partition formats. Yes, also tried toggling debugging and oem unlock in Developer Options. I do know what I'm doing, and it wasn't working. Came close once, but too many force-close splash notices would let Sunshine do its final prep for unlock. I can't get temporary root at all, now. This phone seemingly has some kind of immunity. Kharmic payback, I guess, for my Droid Maxx situation.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ahaynes42:
Can we get a definitive unlock procedure coming from mofo imgs? Now that problems are being reported with CF's NoXposed img I'm not quite sure how to go from a mofo img to sunshine. I'm hoping to avoid going back to stock and dealing with kingroot if possible.

This is a commercial application, you have to buy a license if you want to use it.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Einsteindks:
Gave it a final 'for the hell of it' last night, and I got a relatively quick root from KingRoot, Ss picked up the root just fine. It unfortunately hung at unlock. I figured 30 minutes was enough, and exited. I have a license, but am back to square one with Ss not catching/seeing root. I well understand the tease was NOT designed into either app, but oy vey!

BTW, I'm not looking for a refund. Lord knows I probably owe him a donation of some sort for the help over the years. I have something I could try when I get home, I will let you know what happens either way.

Activating Helium didn't help get root. What did work, I think, was a cache format from recovery, then install KingRoot upon restart. Restart again, then run KingRoot very soon, but not immediately, after restart. Ss did pick up route, but I had to do it twice because of all the force closings. I let it run about a half hour each time. At the second restart, the unlock warning came on first thing during boot. At the point to flash superuser in TWRP, I used the beta 2.52.

mofo versus sunshine for droid turbo

So I used mofo on my last phone just so I could get rid of bloat and use my wifi teether since I have unlimited data still.

does this method allow me to use wifi teether with my unlimited data?

TY

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] KennyG123:

if I used sunshine can I then flash images that get tether working?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] berndblb:
Yes
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] mspt_99:
TY. That is what I was looking for. Sunshine will let me flash the many images that are floating around this forum helping me gain tether, Awesome.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] berndblb:
Sunshine only gets you S-off. Which enables you to flash a custom recovery. With which you can flash a rom that has tether enabled. Which is pretty much any rom

I feel like this has been answered before, but search isn't helping. Will the Moto Maxx 2 work with this method. AFAIK it's a rebranded Moto X Pure, but with verizons security which confuses me... Would I use this method or a method for the Moto X Pure?

One last question; Su got installed as a system app due to being flashed in TWRP. Am I correct in that I can convert it to a user app via Titanium BU to give me a 'clean', factory system, once again, that can take an OTA system update?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] fajo:
Hello, the otas do not work with rooting and custom recovery, must start to flash a Ruu own or flash a stock recovery and remove the root. But these questions why here?

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Einsteindks:
Gotcha... Remove root app for a clean system ready for OTA . So I was nearly correct. I appreciate the clarification. The rest that you volunteered, I already knew. Although, granted, some folks might not know.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] yuryfeidler:
Hello jcase,

Is this bootloader unlock has permanent effect?

If I use your tool and unlock bootloader, than install specific version of software and for security reason lock bootloader by myself by ADB. Could I unlock in back by ADB?

Or, after installing new OTA with e.g. Android 6 (or just full software update provided by motorola) will bootloader stay unlocked?
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jcase:
No Sorry

No because it wont be "clean" it would still be alterted

Never relock motorola phones that have been unlocked with sunshine, no guarantee you will get it unlocked again.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] pgzerwer:
So, trying to unlock my Droid Turbo and in the three or four hundred attempts to get KingRoot to root so that SunShine sees root, I have succeeded exactly twice, and each time when I run Sunshine is runs the second test deal for about a half hour before I exit. Then, of course, if I restart Sunshine it says no root. Do I have to let Sunshine run that test for much longer? I could swear I saw a posting somewhere that gave a hint, but in the numerous Turbo unlock threads I cannot find it.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] jcase:
If hte last test goes on more than 5 minutes its proably stalled, this is a kingroot issue, but we are working on it.

Reboot to bootlaoder, make sure its still locked.

If its locked, reboot, unisntall kingroot, try again.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] pgzerwer:
Thanks, that's what I have been doing. I just have had no luck and was hoping I had missed some secret tip that would get me to the finish line. I am so envious of all the other people who have succeeded.

I'm having same issue with v3 and sunshine. Have posted in other areas, possibly wrong areas, with no replies. Have had mofo root since April, 2015, brand new turbo orig kk. Mofo> 5.1 with last mofo flash being xposed version. Went back to rooted v3, and my kernel is still not acceptable by sunshine. Don't see how or why? Any help appreciated as I do not want to go stock> kr route. I had latest build of .44, but everything I see says "matching kernel", which mine is obviously not matching! Thanks for any input.

[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Einsteindks:
Clean, in the sense the OTA won't be tripped up from anything missing. Otherwise, it's a few extra steps of flashing the stock ROM first. Probably have to do it anyway to get a factory recovery in order for the OTA to be installed. TWRP did manage to handle the OTA back in my droid Maxx... once. I doubt I'd be so lucky again.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] ahaynes42:
I flashed firstEncounter's v3 over computerfreek's 1.6 mofo img. I then unlocked through sunshine and installed computerfreek's new unlocked rom. I did all this without wiping data, but I did wipe cache each time. I'm now unlocked and everything's working perfectly. Best $25 I've spent in a while.

Sunshine & Kingroot cycle

Hi,

The short version: WiFi was on, bluetooth was OFF= had troubles. Turned ON bluetooth (in addition to WiFi) =sailed right through and unlocked.

I had many of the frustrations I've read here on the thread.

Brand-new DT (no SIM card yet until I get it unlocked), I took all the OTA's up to the 5.1 build specified by JCase.

installed Kingroot and Sunshine and got down to it.

I would run Kingroot (it failed initially a few times, I would reboot, try again...fail, uninstall, reboot install, run, reboot, run, etc.) finally it worked, but the "root" wouldn't be the kind that root checker or sunshine would report as valid and sunshine would fail.

I took a break, used the device to record some live music with Easy Voice Recorder, came home and turned bluetooth ON. Uninstalled Kingroot. reinstalled, ran it and it sailed right through. Sunshine checked, I had purchased a license earlier in the day, and Sunshine just sailed right through = unlock.

To all those who have worked on this device and also spent years honing your skills... THANK YOU!

I had just about given up hope of ever having another unlocked phone (worth having) that I can slim down and get rid of the crapware on. I was headed toward Nexus or MXPE.

Christopher

p.s. Now I'm looking for a factory image in order to remove any baloney KR might have caused.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] giant25:
Thanks. I did the same and it worked perfectly.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] Einsteindks:
After flashing the SU beta, King root system app for root was uninstalled as a result. A couple of empty folders on the root SD card were all that I could find. Probably a simple cache wipe would clean up any residue other than that.
[Paid Software Announcement and Discussion] cognitivedissonance:
Hi there, I apologize for being 'that guy' but my friend asked if I could help him root/unlock his Droid Turbo (he really just wants to be able to WiFi tether with his unlimited data plan.)

In my experience, rooting and unlocking capabilities vary based on stuff like baseband, bootloader, and Android versions, so I had him grab the following two screenshots for me.

Can anyone tell me really quick if he'll be able to root/unlock his bootloader and whether or not he'll be able to WiFi tether after he does?

Here are the screenshots:
