[Android Apps and Games] X-weApon-X:
I had posted about my progress which was quite long Unfortunately the XDA app had crashed deleting everything. Basically the binary update was forcing a Play Store update at the same time causing the Play Store to crash and the binary failed to install. The farthest I got was it started uninstalling kingroot, but then kingroot popped out a notification which cancelled the entire process. Then multiple attempts to repeat the process always ended up in a Play Store update and failure. I think I finally applied the trick that prevents Play Store updates so I will try again later.

Actually through all of this I still have root access even if kingroot is not installed. So maybe this would work better if I uninstalled version 4.85 and reinstalled version 4.50?

Maybe it is failing because I have so many apps installed I may just restore the device and try again when there aren't any apps installed. Also, the last time I tried it, play store updated again, I uninstalled it, and was left with no Play store. I found v6.1.12 at APKmirror and installed it, and it took over as stock app since that was the original version. So I'm good to go again,, I put Kingroot 4.85 back in and blocked off updates, and that damn Purity app did not get installed. AND I have SuperSU installed, ready for a Binary update. If I try to update it and all goes well, it will suceed and then try to remove the Kingroot app, it had gotten that far before, but Kingroot pops up a nasty notification that it had crashed, which halts SuperSu's progress. I may remove Kingroot again and install v4.5, which may uninstall easier. The script gave me mostly successful responses, but I am loathe to run it again in case Kingroot starts crashing again - And I don't know if it is the Kingroot app itself that is pushing the Notifications, or if it is the SystemUI app doing it. But once it start popping up, it keeps popping up. Probably because I have so many apps installed that need root. Would it be better if I just removed all of them, I have them all backed up with Titanium. I'm really surprised that I have not once lost Root, every time I reboot, root access is still there, only needing Kingroot to be put back in.

I have one last stupid question (for now), can I change the name of the extracted folder or does the script require that the name be the name that it is given?

OK, nevermind all this, I just posted this in the super Sume thread, because it's the same issue as I am having with the script:

I'm having the same trouble with Vicki Bonick's script as I had with the Super SU me binary on my phone, there is simply no handoff between kingroot and Super SU me, it does a successful first step and then fails at the Second Step, because without root access Super SU can't be updated. And then kingroot, still being in there keeps popping up an error, which cancels Super SUs updating process or kingroot's removal process; it just cancels it out because of the stupid pop up. I'm trying it on a new mtk6735 device, the one thing that I noticed is that the device never really loses root access, only access to a Superuser app. There were times that I got very close to succeeding and replacing kingroot, but the damn popup notification effectively halts SuperSU's update process.

That seems to be the most precise detail of my experience with both the app and the script, the question is should I run the script again or should I try to install Super SU and see if the binary updates? I really don't know what to try next.
