Rooting the Moto X PURE Edition 2015

Hi how would I go about rooting the Moto X PURE Edition 2015 without UNLOCKING the BOOTLOADER? I tried using Kingroot but it did not work. What worked for you?
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EdHicks:
I did unlock the bootloader.
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SR3TLAW:
You're on XDA, unlock that bad boy!
[X Style (Pure) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gulshanstrider:
Yes you can normally flash ROMs. As far as I know rooting dont have any effect on flashing ROM.

Hello Do-Gooders,

I recently got a new phone the Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime w/ Android 5.1.1 Lollipop.

I need to find the free apk Plex app. For some reason I think this phone may be too new for a free apk Plex app for it. I'm seeing apk for Android 4, 4.4 and so now but not for Android 5.1.1.

Can someone please send me a link or can tell me a good apk app website to look.

Thanks a bunch,
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A_Bunny:
For plex you can get it on apkmirror http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/plex-inc/plex/plex-android-4-17-2-488-android-apk-download/

Not working

Thanks but it didn't work. Keeps wanting me to pay.

I wasn't able to post a screenshot due to the fact that I'm a new user on XDA and don't have my 10 posts up yet:( Stupid Rule...

Do I need to root my phone or something?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] A_Bunny:
The app is free but you have to pay for the service itself.

Not paying for the service is technically illegal so I wont post how to do it here.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bweN diorD:
plex app is on google play for free, and claims to support v 3 and up.

if the app requires you to pay for certain features, or whatever the app does, then pay for it, or go ask on some other forum.

[Teclast X98 Air 3G] stephanepi:
My first post on xda about my first flashing ever. Mirek seems to work. Still need 9 more posts to be able to post on dev forum.

By the way, i plan to install debian on it. Either by replacing winshiiiiiii*, either by doing a install with a shared kernel (but not as chroot as seen in gnu root debian).

Still need to post 9 more posts before i can thank Mirek.

10.
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] stephanepi:
that's 9

By the way it's a very stressing situation when you never flashed a rom.

I plan to remove the windows partitions in order to install the debian system on a separate partition but i first need to back up the partition table of the current installation in order to reinstall windows (in case something go wrong).
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] mirek190:
Use dd command to Bacup windows partition .

In the future I add that possibility in my flash tool .
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] stephanepi:
7

Thank for your answer.

That's what i did. (In fact, it's the very first thing i did).

But i want to backup the partition table in order to reinstall as origin, even if this will probably never happen.

I want to remove all the msft partition in order to make room for debian root & home and make the data partition larger. I guess it is possible to do so by editing the .tbl file in the partition folder.

But do you know a tool to extract the current partition table ? Or do i have to make it manually ?
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] mirek190:
You have to make it manually .

If you want know how big is each partition - easy way install partition info ( in that program check advanced view )

Or use terminal ....

With my partitions you have partition editor .

Only diffrences will be on the last 4 petitions /cache / sytem /data and windows last partition .

Or if you install teclast windows then windows create 4 partitions for itself at the end partition tables .

PS I tried boot Debian ....and failed ... looks like in half of booting from usb just usb stoped working ( I have powered usb hub ) .
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] stephanepi:
I finally figured it out for the partition editor. Thanks.

About debian, it's not the usb way i'm talking about but more something like that :

whiteboard.ping.se/Android/Debian

The article is a little old but...

It's less straithforward than usb but you keep the advantage of android (and the drivers) with the full fonctionnality of debian (no chroot).
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] stephanepi:
Oh, i forgot.

The rom is a nice improvement of the system. The battery life lasts far longer.

I had a few bug (apps closing like xprivacy).

There is also semething else. I'm not able anymore to setenforce selinux in enforcing mode. I did it with the Selinuxmodechanger but the change to enforce mode prevented other apps as well selinuxmode changer & terminal emulator to restart.

I had to reboot the device.
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] mirek190:
Don't change to enforce mode because mods will stop works.
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] stephanepi:
I have a question :

What is exactly efilinux-userdebug.efi ? It seems you flash it before any operation on the device.
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] mirek190:
This is EFI boot able partition ( small partition ) that allow to boot droidboot in ram disk .
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] stephanepi:
Ok...

I have issue with your rom :

Some apps are crashing (privacy X).... I think there is an issue with permission system.

I had also to screen freezes. May be related to Gravity box or apex, may be both.

I removed animation of the dock swipe from apex settings and now it's ok.

But he selinux issue is a big issue for me, i don't feel it well. It like going outside with just a T-shirt in the middle of the winter.

And i want to try Remix. I will maybe come back to Mirek later.

In order to flash Remix from my debian pc, I adapted your batch script in bash. and your partition.tbl

your excel sheet was inspiring. I backed-up the current partition table with fdisk command for all partition. It give something equals to the excel sheet for the first partitions.

I upload the 2 necessary file (script & partition flash) in the hope you could take a look at it.

teclast_remix_partition.sh :

partition.tbl :

Is everything ok ?

PS : I don't understand the use of the xml and cmd files, since everything can be done from the batch files
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] stephanepi:
Ok i get it. that's for the intel MFT.
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] stephanepi:
get a huge connectivity problem with the rom : i couldn't g et internet anymore.

I had to make a factory reset.
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] xda_rasor:
Hi!

I install mirek190_rom_v7.0 - android Lollipop, I had a few bug (apps closing like facebook, word, powerpoint) and apps OLX are hang, and help only reboot by pressing on 10s power button.

Battery start show full capacity and take on all day after fully discharge and charge on power-off device

And after reboot or shut down when tablet on again, when pressing "last up" soft button i see app what working on last session, they likely didn't close.

In Titanium Backup i cant uninstall, integrate updates 'system' app like Youtube, Apex.. TB wrote "app dont find":confused:

Also on my c9j8 don't work camera.
[Teclast X98 Air 3G] stephanepi:
I can suggest you the remix os rom for x98 on jide website. But you will have to customise it with a kitchen in order to have root access.

You can even build it with malware in it and propose it on the forum, like the russian version proposed by allegator in the teclat-remix thread. (I cheked the adbd binary in the ramdisk with a hexadecimal editor ; at the end there is a fair number of call of external functions).

It seems android herited some of the bad common practices met in the windows world. Coming from the Linux world, Android looks like the Wild West in comparaison.

But the good part is the Android implementation is far more accessible for system programming and general understanding than the desktop versions of linux. It is possible to quickly make your own tweaks.

By the way, the official jide rom offers a great improvement in android gui like a task bar which allow you to switch easily from one app to another. Once you get used to it, you cannot come back to regular android gui.

But you will have to get your hands dirty if you want root access without having to flash dubious 'custom' rom.

If your interested i suggest you to look for kitchen in the search engine and tutorials about ramdisk and kernel. It can take a little time to get it all, but that's not rocket science.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jazas:
I couldn't stand ugly Touchwiz UI anymore, so I decided to root my I9505. My first ROM was Danvdh GPE, I really liked it, everything was fine, except one thing annoyed me: dialed numbers appeared as "Unknown". Almost every number which I dialed from dialer or even from contacts, appeared as unknown and I had to enter it again or save it to contacts. At first, I thought that it is a ROM issue, because I didn't had this on stock, but then I upgraded to crdroid marshmallow ROM and still had the same problem, but now, every time I started to call or sometimes after successful call I received "Invalid number" error additionally. I tried different dialers, but still got the same problem. Why these dialers are not recognizing my numbers? Is it possible to fix this?

The problem is that Dialer do not show the dialed numbers. Even though I receive "Invalid number" error, phone still makes successful call.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
It's a known issue on most of the custom Android 6.x ROMs, with the possible exception of JDCTeam's AOSP. Until the developers work it out, you either have to deal with it, or not use an Android 6.x ROM.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jazas:
I had the same issue with Danvdh's Lollipop ROM. It's strange that some of the outgoing calls are shown as unknown and some of them are shown correctly. I don't understand what is causing this. I had a presumption that outdated baseband is causing this issue, but I updated it and still everything is the same.
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jazas:
I flashed to JDCteam's AOSP Marshmallow ROM and now everything is working perfectly! Thank you.

Device: Nexus 7 (2013)

OS: Android M 6.0.1

I've been having a problem with network errors popping up whenever I'm watching online videos on my Nexus 7. The video will load and play for about 5-10 minutes nice and smooth with no buffering, then a network error will pop up and I have to reload the page and restart the video. It's not like my internet is dropping out, because right after it happens I'm able to immediately reload the page, fast forward to where I was and continue for another 5-10 minutes before it happens again. It's not browser related either, it happens with both Chrome and Firefox. I thought it might be the "Google Connectivity Services" program that came installed, as there were a lot of bad reviews for it on the Play Store. I disabled that, but it made no difference.

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] hcii:
Hello...

I recently bought a Siemens SX56. Everything on the unit seems to work fine except the phone. It is the 900/1900 version.

I have the unit set to 1900, but I get absolutely NO service anywhere. There is NEVER any signal. I am on Cingular. I travel over 70 miles one way to work, and on my RAZR phone there are very few spots that I do not have service. However, I do understand that the RAZR is a quad-band phone.

Is it possible that here in Eastern KY that there is NO 1900 service, and only 850? If so, I guess I am doomed with this phone. I would think that there should be some 1900 service, somewhere...

Or does it seem to be a malfunctioning radio stack?

Thanks,
