[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgore43:
This is the most promising thing ive seen, i was able to get temp root with kingroot as well. Thanks for figuring this out!:D Is it required that we have a custom recovery to get perma root? Could we use the temp root to copy the su binary to /system ? I assume that doesn't work though..
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teet1:
Well we need to unlock the bootloader first if we want to flash a custom recovery. Copying anything into /system won't work because of the locked bootloader. After a reboot, it all goes away. I tried using SuperSU while temprooted, but it couldn't because /system is wrote protected due to the bootloader. So that's why I'm skeptical of my own theory. If we force push a custom recovery into the recovery partition, it might go back to normal after rebooting.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgore43:
well darn. if the recovery didn't go back to normal though that would be a good thing, but whoever tries, risks bricking their moto g i take it...
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teet1:
I'm not sure if it will brick it. From my experience, if a recovery isn't compatible or failed to flash correctly, recovery just fails to boot. That's from my old phone in the forums. It may or may not be different for the Moto G.

But I'm still wondering whether or not I take the risk and still do it. I'll just have to wait and see what a real dev thinks

Like I said I'm not a developer. I can piece together things from my knowledge though
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgore43:
thanks for experimenting with this, i hope something comes of it!
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teet1:
I'm currently developing an insecure kernel for my phone variant. I'm using my boot.img file that I pulled from my phone, then I will force push it into the partition once I make it insecure. Once it's insecure and it works, /system will be writable and perm root will be completed without unlocking the bootloader. I'm doubting this theory, but hopefully it works.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jgore43:
Excellent! looking forward to hearing what you find. ive got the cricket xt1045 as well so this is exciting! :laugh:
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teet1:
I finally compiled it. However because I'm noobish, I don't know how to do the opposite of this:

This pulls the bootloader partition and copies it into your sd card. I want to force push my insecure kernel boot.img into the boot partition which is mmcblk0p31. Then once I know the proper command, I will take the risk for everyone and force push my insecure kernel into my phone. Hopefully not bricking it. I think there's an extremely high chance that I will. And if it doesn't brick, there will be two outcomes.

1. It doesn't work, and the kernel is reverted back to the stock after reboot.

2. it does work, and perm root has been finally obtained without unlocking the bootloader.

edit: i pushed it...but to no avail :( default.prop still said ro.secure=1 even if the kernel i pushed had it disabled.

Edit: looks like we're going to have to edit ro.boot.write_protect from 1 to 0. Anyone know where that is? I get full /system access once I mount it with Root explorer for a while, so I can do absolutely anything. But it's gone after reboot because of write protection.

edit again: found it. attempting to push build.prop

nevermind again. its not in build.prop. where is it?

pushing recovery does not work! says invalid when booting into it. so even if we root we cannot have a custom recovery due to locked bootloader.

we're really really close! where is ro.boot.write_protect? i can mount my system to RW and do anything I want. once I find the file that contains the option, i can set it to 0, put that thing where it came from or so help me. Hopefully write protection will then be turned off and we can have root. but now off to bed. ive been up for 16 hours trying to figure this out
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ricjames761:
I could be wrong, but to my knowledge the only thing the sunshine app for boot-loader unlocking, needs to work on Moto-g, is a temp root to do its thing. It might worth a shot running the app, Note it does cost money but it runs a few checks n tests to make sure it'll work before asking for anything, also it might worth it going over to the sunshine thread and picking there brain on what they think google the "theroot.ninja" for there site
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teet1:
It does not work. I've tried it. It doesn't work on Moto G 4.4.4. It worked on 4.4.3 and below.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] etechdude24:
Has any progress been made on this? Have been waiting for a root method for this phone for a very long time...

Also how did you get the KingRoot to work? Mine gets up to around 50% and gives up...
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teet1:
No progress at all. KingRoot may not work for you so if it doesn't work for you, then you're probably SOL. Have you tried rebooting your phone, then trying KingRoot? It always works for me. But I don't keep the root because it stops working after a while and the phone starts crashing.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] etechdude24:
yeah, i've rebooted it.. although i do technically have the att version, i was under the impression they were the same with different system apps/branding. could that be it?

regardless, has the project been abandoned, or are you guys still working on it?
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teet1:
I have the Cricket version which is probably the same as the att version. XT1045.

No, I've still been researching many different things. It's just me doing all of this. Nothing on the internet of course, so since I'm not a developer I can't continue because I don't know how to really go into the Android OS. A real developer would have to start looking into this and find some sort of work around or exploit. I figured out that once we get root, we can just flash a safestrap recovery image so we can have a custom recovery while having a locked bootloader.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] etechdude24:
after several reboots, i got king root at last! it was perfect in letting me fix the multitask bug, but haven't succeeded in much else yet... still hopeful for a bootloader unlock :)

i tried rom manager but it basically made everything crash... flashify claimed there was no root (even though it was rooted..) will hope for the best on your efforts! :)
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Teet1:
Absolutely no progress, stumped and back to zero again. Hopefully a dev will find something for us
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChrisULM:
Bummer. I've been watching this thread and hoping for a breakthrough. I doubt we'll ever get lollipop on this phone, so root would at least be something.

Just wanted to say thank you for your work with this. As you said, hopefully a dev can assist. We can't be too far off now that temp root is possible.
[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brandon4466:
I can help!!!

I have a Cricket locked Moto G (XT1045) thats not currently in use, so I have no problem risking bricking it but want to help get root.

[Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] grovyle6901:
Hate to bump the thread again but I believe if you are still on android 4.4.4 you could use a combination of the "libstagefright" bug and the CVE-2012-0056 exploit to gain root privileges. Not sure how you would keep them on boot though. Anyone got an idea of how android 4.4.4's init system works or what the init system is? I.E openrc, systemd, etc? Maybe a kron job could be made to keep persistence? Rather hacky but it might just work. Also what does kernel 3.4 equate to in the android world for linux? Do these companies backport security fixes? Also if I coded this up would it be legal in the USA?

Hey all I've been using a ROM that I've I've been loving but keep having poor battery life. Tried a different rom and battery life doubled!!!! But is missing a must have feature that the other rom has.

There is an issue when scrolling in some apps. When you are at the bottom of a page and say swipe up fast to get to the top, once you hit the top of the page, the page will bounce back and start scrolling back down. Figured out that there is a setting in this ROM with the poor battery life called "over scrolling effect" setting this to off fixes the issue.

Wanted to know if this setting is a part of the core operating system? And be able just just manually edit this setting in say the build prop file or a file like it? Or would this setting have to be added and compiled into the ROM?

Here are screen shots of the said setting

Hi there! This is my first post here, not sure if I'm posting this to the right place or not, hopefully I can get some help with this problem I've been having... Recently I purchased an unlocked, "International" version of the Samsung Galaxy s6 edge online. As soon as it arrived, I noticed that it used a nano sim, rather than the micro sim that was in my old device, an At&t LG G2. So today I went to the At&t store to get a nano sim for my phone. They got things all squared away, and at the moment, it appear that my phone is fully functional on the at&t network except for one thing - I don't see a 4g lte symbol on the top taskbar in android. It just read "4g". I did a lot of research, and a couple people claim that the international versions don't display lte, rather they display "4g" for whenus versions of the phone would display "4g" and "4g lte". After doing some speed tests and comparing against a speed test run on a phone that I know for sure is on at&t's 4g lte network, I am thoroughly convinced that this true. (speeds are about the same, in some cases my s6 actually performed better). But I am still unsure... Help would be appreciated. My knowledge of cellular networks is pretty limited. Thanks!

I have called t-mobile USA and they will unlock my phone, my guess is that it is just the sim but I requested both phone and sim. Any one up on this? Also I have read everything about the unlocking but I have one thing Im not clear on, if its a G4 or G3 it depends on the zero count on the firmware ect. When turning on the Tmob MDZA with 2.26 I just installed from Tmobile last week,

I read some discousion that tmobile was hard to get the info to see if you have a G3 or G4 it didn'tll the zeros there was talk of going in to Bootstrap mode but no talk about how to get out of bootstrap of your not going through with a flash.

I just need to get this out of the way befor I see what my options are for flashing.

It reads

IPL 2.26

SPL 2.26

GSM 2.25.11

OS 2.26.10.2

In the Settings/device info it says

OM Version 2.26.10.2 WWE

ROM Date 6/7/06

Radio Version02.25.11

Protocall Version 4.1.13.12

ExtROM version 2.26.10.105

Many thanks

[8125, K-JAM, P4300, MDA Vario General] xeno1:
You have a G3. If you had a G4 your IPL/SPL would be 2.26.0001 +/- one of those 0's in the .0001 can't remember for sure at the moment but a G3 wont have any of them. I'm not sure where you read that it is difficult to see for sure, it shows your IPL/SPL on the boot screen right after you reboot your phone. You don't need to go into the bootloader for that. As for your other question, T-mobile will sim unloack your phone, but they won't CID unlock it for you. If you want to do that, you should either do it yourself after reading through the CID unlock thread about 3 or 4 times to make sure you fully understand what you're doing or use IMEI-check.

Hi

I'm running CM12.1 Nightly with Pure Performence MOD(CM version)

I'm trying to flash few kernel but nothing works.

I tried

1)Optimus Kernel

2)HurtSky(Extradt2w) Kernel

3)Elementary Kernel

When I flash the first one, my system reboots and shows " Finishing Boot" then again it reboots. This time its on a bootloop, the Cm boot animation appears and nothing else.

When I flashed the second one, it shows " Fastboot : Fail through-normal boot mode" That's it

When I flashed the third one, My screen starts flickering now and then in boot animation and after the boot too.

Does anyone know how to fix this ?

Do I need to change my SELinux ? Right now Its "Enforcing" ?

Your help will be greatly appreciated

Thanks in advance

WelCome Guys,

Here is the Guide for rooting Xperia Acro S the Easiest Way.

I Owned an Xperia Acro S and when I decided to Root I found many ways available, most of them were complicated. As NOOBS can easily freak out with those complicated ways, here I share Easiest Way to Root Xperia.

The Application we are using is lightweight (110Kb) and easy to understand.

CREDITS:

[MENTION=3280118]geohot[/MENTION] (developer of towelroot)

*_Rooting_*

1. Download ToweRoot App V3.

2. Install It On Your Phone.

3. Run App

4. Click On 'make it Ra1n'

DONE!

Isn't that the easiest way ;)

After Rooting you can manually download SuperSU app from Play Store. As it manages root access for the app, it is important to install it on your phone. Also for Unrooting phone you'll need this app.

*_UnRooting_*

1. Run SuperSU app

2. Navigate to Settings

3. Full Unroot

(After unrooting SuperSU app gets uninstall after few minutes and phone will be unrooted. Reboot your phone once)

NOTE: The above procedure was successfully carried on Xperia Acro S running android 4.1.2 with firmware 6.2.B.1.96 You can also try it on lower versions, if it fails let me know I'll give other alternative way.
