ive never trusted kingroot also named kingoroot made by the same devs they have some pretty shady permissions man just it didnt even look good so i can look and see if there is anything usable that could be safer and more perma root material ive been busy looking into SU4TL-44 thats why i havent had any root updates guys i apologize also ive just recently my xda app is acting funny so idk whats going on

Ok scratch that fixed my app still don't know why it screwed up unfortunately I can't do anything with kingroot simply due to the fact that I can't get the code and with no source code I can't look into it all that much all I can do is keep working on root on my end

Also temp root no kingroot doesn't seem to be temporary my Asus transformer tf101 running Android 4.0.3 still stock gonna downgrade it tonight to honeycomb root w kingroot survived multiple reboots I'm running on my tf101 to see if its safe or if I get system issues before I try or even think of it being on my turbo with all my personal information
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Qutayba Khader:
Any updates ??
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] RLShiftyDoggit:
Well not much so kingroot supposedly works on droid turbo ( I haven't tested this) but it did in fact root my Asus transformer tf101 it was stock 4.0.3 I used it to try out kingroot see if it was safe I was able to reboot several times install custom recovery and custom ROM now it's 4.4.4 with SuperSU instead of kingsu all in all I'd say go ahead try kingroot and let me know how it goes guys as for what kingroot does I have no damn clue but hey it rooted it

And here's a pic so you guys can see Asus transformer tf101 running custom ROM 4.4.4 ik this isn't an update on my root but it might be away to get root on the turbo instead of waiting

[MENTION=1937895]hotrodwinston[/MENTION] I don't think kingroot is a temporary root after everything I just did with it considering that the last Asus transformer tf101 update was supposedly not rootable and that it survived multiple reboots a couple restores (one ROM didn't wanna go) and flashed a rom successfully i mean idk man I'd say whatever they did to it it seems different even the permissions although it is now 4 am been looking into it and playing w it on the tablet since I seen your post

FYI kingroot doesn't support 5.1
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] RLShiftyDoggit:
Hmm well its worth a shot you never know NEVER FACKING MIND don't use kingroot Jesus no matter what I try even my own exploit also made this thing have a meltdown not as bad but kingroot Jesus launcher 3 crashed Google play crashed gapps also just holy shat idk what the hell Motorola or Verizon did but this phone doesn't want to be rooted

Lovely morning, I really enjoy finding out people are using my name to obtain things dishonestly.

So shifty has begun approaching people I know personally, and have actually worked with on exploits or other projects. He is lying to them, claiming to be working with me, in an attempt to get exploits from them. He does not work with me, and should not be given any consideration based on anything to do with me.

This time he approached someone who helped setup a training session in las vegas with me this summer.

[MENTION=2376614]jcase[/MENTION], I have mad respect for your work. I know you are legit! :highfive:

As far as this thread well I don't want to disparage anyone but I don't see anything useful coming of it. I hope for the best when people say they are doing this that or the other when it comes to rooting and/or bootloader unlock. However, talk is cheap and actions speak louder than words and all I am seeing here with this thread is a bunch of gabbing and chatter and no real development going on. This is not to say that [MENTION=4310761]Shiftydogit[/MENTION] is not attempting a root method, but at some point it is time to either put up or shut up.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] cadenmiller60:
I can confirm that kingroot does root the turbo. I was able to keep root for about 5 min but root access failed after that.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] hotrodwinston:
That's how it worked on Kit Kat as well - sometimes it would stick for 5 min sometimes 5 hours sometimes (rarely) 5 days. And always disappeared on reboot. Plus makes your system unstable so more likely to need reboot. I just wonder if it can be a path in to provide better root.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] cadenmiller60:
That's what I was thinking. Was hoping it could put us in the right direction for root.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] RLShiftyDoggit:
I can confirm that that's fake af because my turbo had a complete freak out no root granted

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] RLShiftyDoggit:
never once claimed that also nice photoshop work thats clearly bs ive never claimed to work w you jcase never not once you can anyone here at xda and ive made it clear as so have you the last thing ive talked to you about was kingroot last night and quite frankly you dont care its about money for you dont care about the community just off a general basis so idk what you plan to achieve with this fake information but funny nonetheless
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] jcase:
We can just have him post and confirm if you want, the picture is real, you are running around pretending to be working with me to get things from my friends.

Funny that the person, who has published more free and open Android exploit material than anyone period is being accused of being all about the money.

Knock off the games, stop lying and stop pretending to be working with me.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] RLShiftyDoggit:
I don't think you realize how hard these things can be especially when I keep having the same results just like I did w kingroot last night my attempts haven't gone on par but nonetheless I'm working on it now here's the options everyone can get off me and I'll get it once it works or screw it and everyone can wait till there's a working root

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] hotrodwinston:
There was a thread before the lp update about kingroot. It did that a lot. One time it would root next time it would fail next time it would say root but the phone would freak out and start force closing everything. It is all kinds of crazy. But it can actually (temp) root (sometimes).
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] RLShiftyDoggit:
Never once claimed to work w you yes you put out source code mainly for more credibility of like the person who sent that and proof of where I supposedly did anything like that because I never once did

Sent from my XT1254
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] cadenmiller60:
Mine did that to the first two times but the third time it actually worked for about 5 min and then root was ransomly gone.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] RLShiftyDoggit:
So Google play crashed gapps crashed launcher 3 crashed etc?

Sent from my XT1254
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] cadenmiller60:
Yea the first few times everything crashed and i had to restart my phone. Then it actually worked but only for a short period of time. Then all of a sudden i just didn't have root access anymore. It is obvious that kingroot is much too unstable for the turbo at this time.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] RLShiftyDoggit:

what is working? king root? or is this something new?

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] RLShiftyDoggit:
Kit testing kingroot it is working its a bit eh at times (as w my root) I suggest running it once or twice if it doesn't work go into recovery wipe cache then try again in one case I had to uninstall kingroot and purify then reinstall then rooted fine

I tested kingroot and kingoroot on kk earlier this week, and didn't have any luck. that may be good news.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] ganggreen30:
I told people this guy was fake bogus fake and glory seeker
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] hotrodwinston:
Checking with root checker or some other method? The built in message may still say rooted even after root has dropped out.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Helius_Aphelion:
I've been using root checker almost religiously about every 15 to 30 minutes.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] cadenmiller60:
Kingroot is very unreliable with the turbo...
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] mrkhigh:
I honestly think it's time for this thread to be closed until such time there is a reasonable show of work, or a plausible method to show fruit from....

It's starting to make a mockery of xda.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] RLShiftyDoggit:
hey man let me just say you can go **** yourself no root for you sadly your going to be rootless for being an irritating pain in my ass
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] cadenmiller60:
Why are you so against this guy who is working to get root?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] mrkhigh:
I'm not, but this entire thread has been fruitless and insulting one way or the other. If I owned the thread i'd personally request it closed until I could put something up.

I honestly wish him luck. But this thread makes him look bad.

Sadly that is where xda is going a bunch of guys like me, and very few devs even fewer exploit analysis experts. When the guys like me start delving in, sometimes they start really learning. Usually they talk loud and accomplish nothing.

TL;DR

Xda is going downhill as of late.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] crakedparrot:
I'm enjoying watching these two gladiators battle it out.

Let's Get Ready To Rumble!

In this corner, the challenger, the new guy, Shiftyyydoggg.

And in this corner, wearing the red and white trunks, the Verizon Shill, Jjjjcassse.

Let the best dev win!

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] aneeshmbabu:
I support shifty , he is a new guy let it play ... Through out this forum I read that other devs are not helping him or jealous on him.. Because they still can't find a root or BL unlock against our turbo.. So my suggestion is be patient and shif5 will come with a permanent root for our device.. Hope so

For those that dont know, uberlaggydarwin is a security researcher, he flew from Austrailia to Las Vegas to helped setup a training session of our's. He is a major contributor to Cyanogenmod, a well respected contributor to XDA, and a capable security researcher, as in actually able to find security vulnerabilities and write exploits.

He has decided to come public verifying that he was approached by Shiftydogit asking for a trustzone exploit, stating that he works with me

look ima make this really simple for everyone first off this wasnt me one i dont know who this guy is havent even heard of him and anyone who wants to pretend to be me not a very smart move and you obviously suck at it
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] rickybogo:
I find it ironic that in his own root thread, kingroot is being discussed and he tested it.....I guarantee you the screenshots that are posted are done with kingroot. Shifty, your out of your league. I don't know **** about rooting, and I don't pretend too either. Man up, and just stop bs'ing these guys all waiting for root.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] RLShiftyDoggit:
Yet you have no idea what your talking about and some people don't want to use my method so I'm finding them options

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] Aravindtop:
Well this thread was a wild ride. You gave me a tinkle of hope, still there. But through your actions Shifty I'm losing trust. I just hope you can produce something, or this will be one of the very phones that have never had a full root.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] rickybogo:
It's not just this phone, get used to it. Marshmallow is going to make root alot more difficult for alot of devices. The good old days are numbers....
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] koftheworld:
Your method? You haven't released your method, a how to regarding your method, a YouTube video with proof of your method, etc. All we have are your claims and jcase telling us that you have no clue what you're doing. You can have this thread closed, but all that will do is confirm to everyone here that you are a liar and looking for attention. Why not tell the truth about exactly what is going on on your end and what happened between you and jcase?

Keep in mind that this sort of happened with mofo, except that gentleman talked to [MENTION=2376614]jcase[/MENTION] on the side and confirmed that it was real.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] RLShiftyDoggit:
Look someone used my name to contact that guy to try to get the tz bug and I've already tried talking to Jcase and the other guy and no one seems to believe me and yeah I got root going but it is no longer worth it to me if stuff like this is going to keep happening I don't condone of people trying to steal others work so at this point I have to stop either it gets resolved or whatever the turbo is 100% rootable I've seen that for myself I've spent alot of time learning trying new things but a liar I am not but I can see when I'm beating a dead horse I apologize guys and I appreciate your support

Or IP even? I'm imagining security researchers can validate beyond a shadow of a doubt who is who where. Proves your innocence.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] koftheworld:
You can do whatever you want in terms of working on root or not, but you haven't provided any real proof. Why not just release your method in full glory for anyone to mess with? You will get the credit and you can slap on a warning about people breaking their phones.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] cadenmiller60:
Agreed. That's what turbo owners want at this point.

Guys I will be posting a lil about my root adventure here in a couple days and I am currently rewriting my code as version 1.0 (the beta pretty much) has seen very horrible results
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] koftheworld:
I can't wait to see it and use it! What exactly is your root capable of? Just curious.

Providing high levels of disappointment across the board...

Oh, and it does all that without punctuation or competent sentence structure!

[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] RLShiftyDoggit:
Don't get to exited people I've done a lot of research and I'm working on a version that will actually work and not crash 90% of the time it seems one of the biggest issue on root is WP so we gotta get a BL unlock now this isn't the official product guys as I said I'm trying to tackle a few things when i tried kingroot it seems busybox doesn't want to install ive also been playing with that and guys like classic ok we don't need anymore negativity and crap like that don't want the mods and or admins getting pissed and if anyone in here knows why kingroot wouldn't install busybox let me know been talking to some people trying to see how we could get it flat out I think it has something to do w WP idk I only played w kingroot for a day sooo anyway like I said I'll be posting pictures and I want to apologize for how long all of this has taken guys as this was all new for me and making a root can be a hellish nightmare at times but w the rewrite I'm working on I have some others to help bounce ideas off of so its not as much of a shot in the dark also people on SU4TL-44 I updated my DT so yes itll work for you once I'm done I don't see a reason why SU3TL-39 wouldn't be able to root w this too as its 5.1 still and all it was was a couple stage fright patches (BTW have nothing to do w root way to complicated played w that I shouldn't have wasted time there) but that's kinda just what's been going on I apologize to anyone I went to far with or anyone I may have mislead but I'm back at work with all this and hopefully it goes better this time around guys

why you don't released them separately (39/ 44) ? :confused:
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] RLShiftyDoggit:
that's is a possibility but if I can get a 2n1 root if at all possible then people on 44 wouldn't have to wait on it so we shall see what happens
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] RLShiftyDoggit:
Anyone with SU4TL-44 can you run a stagefright detector for me like the one from zimpermium heres the google play link https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.zimperium.stagefrightdetector&hl=en feel free to message me with the results this is for educational reasons nothing bad will happen looking for similarities between 44 and 39 thanks guys

Quick question for you: will this be permaroot with ability to survive a reboot? If so, we may be able to tie in [MENTION=2376614]jcase[/MENTION] and sunshine. Any thought to talking to him.
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] RLShiftyDoggit:
It will be and no Jcase tends to keep his projects private and I've yet to see any proof of him working on it last I seen rootninja said they didn't have a turbo to work on so idk anything more about there dev on this device I'm not dissing Jcase or anyone actually it was thanks to him for pushing me in the right direction to learn about rooting but reading what rootninja said on twitter is what made me decide to make a root myself again I'm not dissing or trying to out do anyone as Jcase is very knowledgeable I just want to help the turbo community
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] RLShiftyDoggit:
An I just want to say [MENTION=2376614]jcase[/MENTION] thanks for pointing me towards the knowledge needed and thank you to everyone at XDA that's been supportive of this and I just found out someone posted about this to Reddit so thank you guys for getting the word out just my thanks to everyone
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] cadenmiller60:
Will your root method disable write protection?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] RLShiftyDoggit:
Are you talking about for the bootloader?

Sorry been a long night for me could you explain what your talking about exactly
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] cadenmiller60:
For example, mofo root and kingroot was able to root the turbo previously but who could not write to the /system partition. This meant that we couldn't install apps like xposed. Would your root method all use to write to the /system partition?
[Verizon Motorola Droid Turbo General] RLShiftyDoggit:
I didn't think of that honestly put I will see what I can do man thanks for the idea
