Thank you again!! I live this phone niw that I have xposed and all the bells and whistles-on mine. My friend would just get in trouble with that much access! Lol

Of course cyanogenmod rom would be cherry on top! I have been learning about tablets, frp locks, pheonix suite and stuff. Love new skills!!

Right after I told you all that it came to my attention that we no longer need Trapkernel to root. We can now do it by flashing the newest SuperSU. More info here. :)

Need a little help. I soft-bricked mine with KingoRoot. Wound up reflashing the whole 787mb rom with Odin. Did the root that bogarty told us that shinyside had come up with. Got it all done and am rooted and happy. But now the phone is boiling hot sometimes, and nearly every time the screen times out, it turns the phone all the way off and I have to use volume down+ power to get it to reboot and turn on. What have I fried? Or is it a coincidence and I just had a lemon of a phone to begin with. Sorry for being not smart about all this. Any help appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] bogarty:
You flashed which rom? You flash roms with recovery by the way. Not Odin. Do you mean the stock firmware? If you reflashed the whole firmware, then I'm not sure what might be causing the device to heat up as it should start your device off clean. Are you short on space in your internal storage or do you have a lot of processes/apps running in the background because those things would cause it to heat up.
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] schnuffles:
Yes, what you said-- I had to download the whole firmware and put that on with Odin. Then once the phone was back to operating from how badly I'd screwed it up, then I did shinyside's root. Root worked fine. But now it is hot and if the screen times out it completely shuts off and I have to volume down+power to get it to boot up. I have to leave the screen on at max time out and make sure I touch it now and then or the phone is off. I can manage that during the day, but when I go to bed there's nothing I can do to keep it from shutting off.
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] bogarty:
You're talking about the SuperSU method right? Not Trapkernel. I felt like that's what you were saying a few posts back anyhow. If so, then I have not tried that root method myself, so I'm not entirely sure, but my guess is that the way in which the SuperSU zip edits the kernel may be affecting the kernel's performance on this device. That would explain the overheating for sure. You can still try rooting the regular way though by flashing Trapkernel(in the AP slot of Odin) from here to see if it gets any better:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=62859013

You will still have root and it will overwrite what SuperSU did. Afterwards, let us know here if your device is performing any better. It should if it's overheating as a result of the changes made by SuperSU.
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] schnuffles:
No, never tried the SuperSU method.

I started with KingoRoot, the app, and it soft bricked my phone. So I started searching for how to undo it. I found your (bogarty's) boot and recovery zips that were odin flashable, but that didn't do much. But I found the firmware, flashed that back on with Odin, and the phone was back to working. Then, I did the trapkernel root, it worked fine. But now still have that heat and shutting off problem.

I did all sorts of mean stuff to this poor phone getting it this far (due to not knowing anything at all about phone words and apps and software and just bashing at it by skimming these forums). Flashing the stock firmware would have cleaned up anything I'd have screwed up in the Kernel and such right? I will say that flashing that 787mb firmware didn't take terribly long for odin to do. You know how you can quick format a HDD or do it the full way? Kind of like that-- it seemed like odin just quickly verified what was already there and fixed a couple of the things I screwed up so that it wouldn't be hung up on the metro pcs screen anymore and would finish booting. Is it possible that the Kernel or something else is still screwed up from all the swearing I did at my phone as I tried flashing stuff and learn-by-doing stuff I tried?

God, I am hopelessly dumb about this stuff. Bless you for your patience. I swear if I am still not making myself understandable, I will give up and leave you alone. Sorry to be a pest.
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] bogarty:
1) Yes Kingo is toxic for most devices and overall pretty sketchy if you ask me, both for security reasons and for the ambiguous way in which it roots.

2) Those boot and recovery files I made were from before we had any root or custom recovery for this device and were purely meant for restoring your boot or stock recovery without having to flash the whole firmware everytime while we were still experimenting with different root solutions and testing for a working custom recovery. They likely wouldn't fix any damage done by Kingo though so you were right to flash the stock firmware.

3) The stock firmware should have fixed everything by overwriting the whole system, though I don't think it cleans up the data, so you should've retained all your installed apps and such. This could be troubling though if Kingo did anything to other(non-system) parts of your device that are not overwritten by the firmware. I've read countless times about Kingo users still finding traces of Kingo in their device long after they thought they'd gotten rid of it. It's possible some of these things could be taking up precious resources that are causing your device to heat up. More often than not I think overheating is caused by too many apps or other processes running in the background.

-----------------

Things You Can Try:

-----------------

1) Check System Resources - If you go into Settings under "Applications/Application Manager/Running", you should be able to see if you're running out of ram and what's causing it. If you are, then see which processes are taking up the most memory. Consider deleting any belonging to apps that you installed. Also in Settings, under "Storage", you can see if your Device Memory is running really low. If so, then maybe try deleting some apps in that case too.

2) Install SlimPickins Rom - Rather than deleting memory hogging apps you like, you can also just flash SlimPickins rom. It replaces the stock Android with a much lighter version that runs more smoothly and has more free space, which is sure to cool your device down. You need to flash TWRP recovery first in Odin though, as the rom needs to be installed in TWRP.

TWRP(Use Version 3.0 1-0 Only):

No access to pc !

Can you please help me out I don't have access to a pc
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] bogarty:
There are currently two ways to root this device. One is by flashing a rooted selinux permissive kernel(like Trapkernel), but you need some kind of computer to use Odin(or Jodin) to flash it. The other is by flashing the SuperSU zip file, but you also need a computer for that because it requires a custom recovery like TWRP to install it and until you have root the only way to change system stuff(like recovery) is through Odin(or Jodin). Once you have root though then you can flash whatever you want without a pc by using either recovery or flashing apps from the Play Store, but until then your device will remain selinux enforced.

Same phone here. Maybe if anyone here has a Twitter account, then they could leave a reply to this post for all of us letting them know it doesn't work? Don't really want to sign up for Twitter just for one comment. [emoji14]

https://mobile.twitter.com/srsroot/statuses/628771946570850304

EDIT: Thank you Luke Sabastian, whoever you are, for commenting on Twitter and letting SRS know this isn't working for us. Maybe if more people comment on that post too it will draw attention to our particular phone. I know they're dealing with a lot of different models.

Maybe it would help if someone wants to let them know that we are getting this error when trying to root the SM-G360T1:

"Getting OffSets.. : error: only position independent executables (PIE) are supported. (False)"

Thank you! :)

EDIT 2: Upon further investigation...apparently SRS also claimed that they established root for this phone a few weeks prior to the Twitter post that I linked above and someone also left a comment saying that it doesn't work. They also claimed it was rooted today too. Have to wonder if they're actually confirming these claims or not.

(Tried redownloading it and running again today just in case they'd actually changed something by the way. Still doesn't work.)

Someone should still tell them about the error we're getting though if they can. :)
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] bogarty:
You need to make sure you have the proper drivers for your phone installed on your PC to get your phone to go into debugging mode when you connect. Should come up as an ADB device in device manager. Mine says "Samsung Android ADB Interface" under "Android Device" in device manager.
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] PURESKILLZZZ:
I am also playing with a SM-G360T1. A friend forgot the passcode. Doesn't have usb debugging enabled. So I am looking for a root as well or a custom recovery. But if I am not wrong device needs to be rooted to install custom recovery. Both CWM and TWRP sites dont show a recovery . I am thinking of attempting chain fires root for the Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime. http://techchomps.com/how-to-root-the-samsung-galaxy-grand-prime/ . And the recovery for the same phone http://techchomps.com/how-to-install-a-custom-recovery-on-the-samsung-galaxy-grand-prime/ . Has anybody gone any further . I am trying srsroot now to see if that works first ... Will keep you all posted.
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] bogarty:
Not sure how similar the Core is to the Grand, but if you run a root procedure that was not meant for your phone it might just brick your device.
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] PURESKILLZZZ:
You are correct but it failed so no brick. Also srs one click root isnt helping me as usb debugging isn't enabled and when I go thru the installed recovery and try it thru sideload it still doesn't root the device.

I would rather hard reset device and play with it but the mission is to get the pass-code off. I don't even get the verify with google option or forgotten password when using wrong pass-codes.
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] PURESKILLZZZ:
I have tried srs one root , root genius , kingo android root , root v1.7 in all Chinese , some root program in Chinese that I don't remember name to, android tool kit , droid explorer and no matter what cant get adb to install or get root. Any solution would be greatly appreciated. Either root or recovery is what I need.
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] kate cody:
I tried that root and an after a zillion tries, ie, boot loader unlocked, locked, it finally root successful but it wasnt. An hour later i went back to yhe website yo try and let them it didnt work, ya know kinda feedback and see if they had any ideas that might work but the phone was listed as a success an I dont twitter(tweet? ) so I let it go. Believe me I am persistant and determined to find ROOT! I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING OUT THERE MORE THAN ONCE.

But no luck. If I dont find the answer here on xda Awww you get it sorry to be long winded but. ..
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] bogarty:
If you haven't already:

To enable USB Debugging you just need to go to "Settings/About Device", then tap on the "Build Number" 7 times. This will enable the "Developer Options" menu. Then go to "Settings/Developer Options" and turn on USB Debugging. This should be on if you want to root. It doesn't help with SRS though. I've tried. The "PIE" error I stated in an earlier post is the reason why. Anyhow, hope this helps.
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] PURESKILLZZZ:
This phone is pass-code locked my friend. If not usb debugging would be the least of my problems..
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] bogarty:
What do you mean by "pass-code locked"? Hoping you dont mean the pass-code on your lock screen because those are manually set by the original user when purchasing the device. If this is already set then you have a second hand phone and the only solution is to ask the person you got it from for the password. Anyhow, we should keep this thread about rooting if we can. :)

SRS root DOSENT WORK. I TRIED ALL OPTIONS ON A HOST PC.. after testing for malware.

ITS not a trojan. But it Does flag AV. (Norton 360) and (windows defender) on VM.

*It passes (malware-bytes). I let it run on VM and no wired network connections or other odd behavior* observed. I used Cfos to monitor conecetions for new liNks and tftp(ing) aswell as resource monitor on a windows 10 vm in win10 pro host using Hyper-V.

I was able to get a recovery to flash using ODIN3 v3.10.6.

It was TWRP.. twrp-recovery-1.8.7.1-coreprimelte.tar

But Touch doesn't work.. and the only analog button that works is the power key. So I'm able to lock TWRP recovery. But I can't unlock it by swiping.* Had to do a battery pull to get back to android.* Then I flashed an other verson of twrp to try and no luck there. I finally flashed the stock recovery back to see if i could .. i just extracted it from the zip and then used 7z to add the recovery.img to a .tar file and that worked...to flash with odin.

I probably needed a better kernel. Or at least an unlocked one.

But I did message team win recovery project. About the issue with that version of recovery for our device. So hopefully they'll just have to tweak it a bit and it'll work.

One step closer to root. BUT I'M STILL waiting and hoping for CF auto-root to come through for us. Help us Chainfire your our only hope.

Just to clarify it is twrp-2.8.7.1-coreprimelte.img.tar and the link to it is dl.twrp.me/coreprimelte/twrp-2.8.7.1-coreprimelte.img.tar.html. I had the same problem with the screen not working and only the power button works to lock the screen....that doesn't work.

Hey guys! I did not put those files into flashable zip files. The zip files were meant to merely contain the files "boot.img" and "recovery.img" in case we needed them later to repair the phone, so if you're trying to flash the zip in recovery, then it's not going to work.

[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] z31k:
Samsung has blocked root in its 5.1.1 android version. In order to achieve root you have to create a custom kernel.. Then flash thru ODIN.
[Samsung Galaxy Core Prime Questions & Answers] rogersb11:
Create? So this has kernel source available? If it just needs a permissive kernel you can make the "possible" with some init changes to selinux temporarily but if there is source it would be rather easy to just disable se altogether
