I don't remember if you need to be unrooted or not, but you can just try to see if it works rooted first. If it doesn't you can unroot your phone by going to settings in the SuperSU app. To reroot after that just flash the SuperSU zip.

EDIT: You can get the zip from this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1538053

Hi again

So I tried to apply the OTA update and it restarted and started to install the update and it gave me an error in the midway with a red exclamation (❗) mark in the androids stomach.

So I pressed power + Vol up button and restarted my phone using the menu.

I thought it was probably because of the root. So I went to SUPER SU app and Uninstalled it (un rooted). Restarted and SUPERSU was gone.

After a while the update came back. And I applied it again. And this time the same error.

So I pressed power + Vol up again and checked the log and it says that /cache/update.zip has unexpected contents.

Anyone got any idea why is this happening?

This time I've formatted cache. And so far (5 mins) no update Notification yet.

Looking forward to your help.

Cheers
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ariesgodofwar:
You can't have an amended /system partition to use the OTA with 5.0+. Even uninstalling SU will not work. If you want to use the OTA Process, you will need to flash the factory /system image, which will cause you to lose root (and is sort of redundant in light of the fact you can just extract the updated system.img file from the latest Factory Image and just flash that to upgrade to it). That said, it only takes a minute to root so would suggest just making sure you are comfortable with the process as opposed to trying to preserve root.

I cannot find any root method for this phone SM-N915F anywhere in the forums.

Build number is LRX22C.N915FXXU1BOE1 running on Android 5.0.1 (Lollipop)

I've been soft-bricked a few times for trying a few rooting methods including CF-Auto-Root.

Anyone here knows where can I get root for this model?
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cundis:
I read in another thread that you can flash cwm (what about twrp?) with odin and then boot into recovery and then flash super su to get root. But there is no cf auto root. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Link here

Sendt fra min SM-N915FY
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyyong95:
This means CF-Root is working for any device as long as we have the appropriate custom recovery for our device. Thank you for the link, I will try it and post back the results.
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyyong95:
Wow it works, thank you for the reply [MENTION=830676]xenkato[/MENTION]
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cundis:
Cool! Did you do it with cwm and super su?
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyyong95:
Yes, I did exactly what the person in your link does haha!
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cundis:
So you flashed cf auto root first with that one failing? Or only cwm and then super su?
[Note Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cyyong95:
Err from what I've read I think there are two things regarding the root file provided by Chainfire.

1. CF-Auto-Root (This one is a method provided by him to flash devices directly to root them)

2. CF-Root (This one is where a custom recovery which is suitable for the particular model is needed to flash it)

I've flashed CWM on my phone and then flashed the CF-Root through the custom recovery installed

So I think as long as devices has a working custom recovery like TWRP/CWM then it can be used to flash the CF-Root from Chainfire's website.

[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zirhaze:
Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but anyway, to the point. I rooted a Xperia SP with towelroot, checked with rootchecker and it was okay, after that I installed CWM and then flashed a ROM and probably CWM changed to TWRP with the ROM. Then I ran some debloater script the ROM maker had done and forgot to flash gapps (lol), or more like debloater script made the phone to reboot, so I let my phone to reboot and try to go back to TWRP and it just doesn't work... Touches won't get recognized. Also I just noticed that the root is gone. Looking for some help here now. Not so used to this stuff.

Things I've tried:

root again with towelroot, didn't work

flash gapps, didn't work

try to install recovery.img again with adb, didn't work(I just may aswell not know how to use adb anyway)

Ask if more information is needed. Thanks! Hope someone could help me.
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phoenix854:
1.You should have posted this in Q&A section

2.Never use towel root on lollipop because all ROMs are rooted by default.

To enable root Settings->Developer options->Root access->Apps and ADB

3.Dont try debloater script just yet. Use it when you are settled with ROM working.

4.Now what you need to do is

a.Boot into recovery and flash the latest TWRP zip.

b.Reboot into TWRP and wipe everything(data,cache,system but not external)

c.Flash ROM zip and gapps.

Hope this works:good:
[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zirhaze:
I can boot into recovery but it won't recognize touches so I cannot navigate to anywhere in TWRP. Also where to find latest TWRP zip for Xperia SP, since I am looking at TWRP homepage and there is no 2.8.7.0 for Xperia SP. Otherwise it sounds like I learned something new :)

[Xperia SP Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Phoenix854:
Since you said TWRP does not recognize touches. Here I present you 2 solutions:

1.Flash stock ftf and start over.

2.Flash FOTA and then flash tangerine kernel with TWRP recovery support via fastboot (v6.3 because newer versions cant be flashed using Fastboot)

Now I wonder if:

1. Is it ok if the ActiveSync icon remains gray (not connected) after the step 2 and during the step 3?

2. Is this method not appropriate for O2 Nova (German)?

Don't know what to do now. Would anyone be so kind and give me any hints, please?

I did took my chance to CID unlock my french Touch, unfortunatly I am now stuck in 3-colour boot screen.

I did manage to connect with MTTY, but when running:

Cmd> ruurun 0, "Need password!" is returned on the mtty console.

Then I tried :

Cmd> ResetDevice, it did reset the device back to the 3 colour screen...

I am stuck what can I do, Pof if you hear me !!!!!

Thanks Pof,

I did eventually get my Touch back to life with the following steps:

- once stuck on 3-colours boot screen (RUU written in the top right corner, USB written in the bottom left corner, and IPL 1.11.0002

SPL1.11.0000 written near the top left corner of the screen)

- I did manually launch "ROMUpdateUtility.exe" provided in the "ELF_USPL\RUU" directory, even if the RUU terminated in error (ERROR 270, if I remember well), it did reset my Touch and the latest could restart normally.

Notes:

- I did removed the microSD card

- Hard Reset had no effect (still stuck in the 3-colour boot screen)

- I had do 2 or 3 attempts (Soft-Reset, and then manually run the RUU) before getting my touch ack to life

Finally:

- I did AGAIN the Pof CID unlock method and could finally CID unlock my Touch to upgrade my Radio ROM !

- Then do not give up, it takes (sometimes) many attempts before succeding !

CID Unlock & Flash Rom

Dear Pof,

Pls help. Thanks:)
[Touch GSM ROM Development] doni:
I haven't been able to flash, and don't think it is related to pof's tool. I follow the steps and get to the blank screen (ie boot mode), as icon is grey and run the ruu utility, it shuts AS completely, but then always get an error 266 (i think), but basically that the utility cannot communicate with my device.

I tried flashing a couple of roms for the sake of it, and always the same thing, the ruu utility can't communicate with the device when the bootloader screen is on. I also tried with manually getting in boot mode and then running the ruu, still same error.

Any suggestions?

P.S. I've updated my TyTN dozen of times, literally, and never had such issues.

Cid Unlock Problemes

and try to run the setup it is stuck on step 1/3

also cant see green icon on the active sync

[Touch GSM ROM Development] steffan3301:
what data do i lose installing another ROM?
[Touch GSM ROM Development] doni:
All data, personal and any installed applications etc (you don't lose any data on the storage card of course). It is same as doing a hard reset, you end up as when you powered the phone on for the first time (well, with different ROM, and any custom application incl. etc.). This does not relate to pof's tool in this thread, it shouldn't cause any data loss.

You can either make a backup using something like sprite and then restore, which I think is a bad idea (i.e. a clean start is always best). Or just live with restoring your contacts, calendar etc. through MS Activesync with Outlook, and reinstalling all applications (you can also try PPCPimBackup, search on xda, if you want to restore other PIM things, as sms, call history etc.)

Btw, if you don't know what data you lose with a new ROM, you should be either very careful flashing the phone (e.g. read and do step by step) or just don't do it :-)
