Strange behavior of shell editor after su.

I have succesfully rooted a Samsung Note 3 Neo (SM7505) with Kingroot. I don't know if this happens only on my phablet but, after I open a superuser session with su command from the android/linux shell, the shell editor changes totally (not only the # in place of the $ prompt and the root permissions of course). The usual break (ctrl c) becomes ineffective, that's if I launch, e.g., a ping, without specifying a -c option, there's no way to stop it (other than send a "pkill -9 ping" command from another su screen terminal). The editor of the shell commands also behaves in an unusual way. For example if I recall the last command sent (present in history) by typing a cursor up (or a ctrl p), the last command appears BUT the cursor goes to the next line, instead it should go at the end of the command. Only after many trials I've found that typing an additional ctrl L I can place the cursor at the end of the line as usual (and as it still happens in non superuser mode, $ prompt).

Really weird behaviour.

WORKAROUND FIX:

Use if:

You cannot clear settings / apps / KingRoot / data.

Or KR will not install after a reboot.

Or it stalls out-blank screen.

1) Uninstall KR, install the attached install.when.KR.stops.apk, my rename of kingroot_3.4.1.apk

From http://androidxda.com/download-kingroot-application

If it will not install, reboot.

2) clear its data.

3) install the latest or use the previous (5c4... Md5) again.

I have Sony Xperia Z3 and Kingroot worked great! Only problem is when using Greenify - Kinguser forgets that I've allowed root access for Greenify and it wakes up the phone and turns screen in my pocket. I do not notice this and root access for Greenify is denied automatically. How can I get Kinguser to remember root access settings for my apps?

Interesting discovery.

Something inside solution 01430219053947 makes my device (ZTE Z667G Whirl2) go into QHSUSB download mode.

This is very useful because this mode is not accessible otherwise from the phone, there is no fastboot available.

Do you think you could make a utility that just causes the phone to go into QHSUSB mode?

[Android Apps and Games] ayamati:
From my experience, if a custom rom with superuser preinstalled (with su binary but not properly installed/need to update su binary) and then Kingroot was executed, Kinguser would *kick*/replace SuperSU with Kinguser.
[Android Apps and Games] fire3element:
Reason the fingerprint has changed is because we are "setprop persist.sys.k" to the product name. Stock system on the Zmax boots write protection. With persist.sys.k set to the product name (P892T57), we can "dd if=recovery of=boot" .

This allows us to Reboot Recovery, sending us back into android without write protection. Gives us write ability to /system.

During testing, I had to restore stock Recovery after gaining root with King.

Factory Reset after that.

Now that I check again, "getprop persist.sys.k" returns a blank. Nothing there, and cant fix that till I get temp root back again.

Still waiting for other Zmax users to send over their data and info. Will PM you with that as I get it.

Thanks for looking into this for Zmax users

Wait. Are you saying that this exploit works better on a factory-reset phone? Hrm, I may try that later on, if I get a good backup out.

[Android Apps and Games] Kingxteam:

[Android Apps and Games] Blairware:
Kind of Ironic - the statement made here...

I appreciate that you are trying very hard to be "professional" and I am sure that the purpose of Kingroot is NOT to steal IMEI #'s and create an army of cloned phones (some people watch to many movies, I suspect, LOL!!) I have to point out that a true "Professional" would not be creating a product that seeks to exploit a linux/android security weakness, all to purposefully circumvent a lock that the carrier put there. The carriers/manufacturers such as Samsung and AT&T have been creating Locked Bootloaders, adding security tools such as KNOX and generally making the process of modifying a phone MUCH HARDER than it has ever been. This gets a LOT of people upset - I did a petition to AT&T Executives to unlock the bootloader on the Note 3, of course it was ignored, but I got a lot of signatures, showing that many people are not happy with being LOCKED OUT OF THEIR OWN DEVICE. Once a phone is paid for, it should be YOURS to do whatever you like with it. It's not like you can harm AT&T's network with a modified phone or something. The worst you could do is brick the device, and if that's what they worry about, they could just ask to to waive the warranty when you unlock the bootloader. This is what Asus did with the transformer Prime and Transformer Infinity tablets, and many folks were happy to sign off the warranty to get the bootloader unlocked - me included.

Do not misunderstand me - I think this is great work you are doing, and I support the Kingroot team for its work. But while you are not harming the user, the Carriers (Verizon and AT&T will feel that you are harming THEM. If they start threatening or causing issues, JUST IGNORE VERIZON AND AT&T - THE SAME WAY THEY HAVE BEEN IGNORING THE DEVELOPER COMMUNITY FOR THE LAST 2 YEARS AS WE ASKED, PLEADED, BEGGED AND PETITIONED THEM TO UNLOCK THE BOOTLOADER OF OUR DEVICES. THE ONES WE PAID FOR. THE ONLY DEVICE THAT AT&T AND VERIZON HAS A RIGHT TO LOCK DOWN IS ONE THEY GIVE AWAY FREE. THE ONE I PAID FOR IS MINE, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

*RANT OVER* Sorry - I get very worked up on the subject. Please keep up you efforts. This is important work you are doing here. It is appreciated by the Android development community.
[Android Apps and Games] Kingxteam:
That's OK. And we also have a protection strategy, if you failed too many times, we will stop to provide root service for protect your device. That's may be a reason of why you cannot root it anymore

https://who.is/whois-ip/ip-address/14.17.43.149

I get that you need to connect Kingroot to obtain and download the best possible root solution but, AFTER ROOT, what are you sending? That's not cool AT ALL.

It also connects to several other IP addresses in China, some of them flags as used by a malicious datanet.

103.235.46.39 - 183.61.32.183 - 183.224.110 - 183.61.46.140 and it keeps rotating... wtf are you sending?

Kingroot isn't that intrusive. I just experimented and installed Kingo and it took over root on my phone and completely wiped King User off.

The only reason I bring this up is that I can't figure out why SuperSU has such a difficult time doing the same on some phones.
[Android Apps and Games] elliwigy:
imo its not about being intrusive to chainfire, its about giving users the option..

theres probably very few ppl who use Kingo or King root and they want ppl to use their apps/binaries but unfortunately chainfires amazing and ALL root apps work with supersu whereas many dont work with the latter.

I installed SuperSU-me, from the Play Store. Ran it, granted it root access and activated it. It was supposed to get rid of everything related to Kinguser and replace them with SuperSU, but it apparently missed something, because when SuperSU showed up and asked me to updated its binaries, it failed to do so. Then, I installed the SuperSU beta zip v2.49 in recovery and ran SuperSU. It prompted me to remove the other root method found in my phone. I agreed, installed BusyBox and my other applications which require root, and everything is fine with my rooted ZL running 5.0.2 ever since.

Kingroot worked fine on my Wiko Cink Five. It also worked on my Lenovo S6000H, until I shut down and rebooted. It stuck after the Lenovo animation. Luckily a factory reset using standard recovery solved that and Kinguser survived. I think the encryption caused the problem. Ah well, do not really need that.
