Fire HD 6 Root success with KingRoot APK - Fire HD 6 and 7 General

Hi!
Today, while doing my daily reading blogs, I found an article by El Android Libre (in spanish) of an app for rooting Android devices quickly, so I decided to try it on my own and effectively, the application success to root my Fire HD 6!. His name is KingRoot. I'm very excited, it worked, and so far I have not noticed errors in the operation of my tablet (at least, today). I could say that this is the ultimate solution to root the Fire HD 6.
WARNING: This is a Chinese application, so I can not guarantee that it 100% safe to use . IF YOU INSTALL THIS, IT IS AT YOUR OWN RISK. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR BUGS, BOOTLOOPS OR SOFTBRICKS..
Antivirus information:
If the antivirus software on your tablet shows this application as a virus, it is evident: for root you device, this app made a series of exploits to the operating system, and obviously the antivirus will display warnings before or during the process
I hope this can be useful to someone.
(Sorry for my English, I am using Google translator)
UPDATE 12-05-2015 02:01 AM
This process is not yet totally safe and we have very little information. Indeed, it is possible to root the Fire HD 6/7, but there's a very high risk of the device is unable to boot.
Unroot instructions:
Open the KingUser app
Press the Settings button (upper right corner)
Then press the "Remove Permission Root" option
Confirm and wait a few minutes.
Reboot

Yay!!! Thank you for posting this, I will try it now

great news! plz report how it goes thx.

Made a quick vid. Thanks for the info! How to Root Fire HD6: www.youtube.com/watch?v=KcQ30qcImJc

at last my hd6 is rooted now thx

Trying it on my HD7 now. Are we forced to use the king superuser or can we switch to superSu after?

The SU binary will be saved in the /system/bin folder after rooting the Fire HD 6, so I think that while this binary is not deleted you can use any other app for root management like SuperSu.

Suh-weeeet! Can confirm, works on HD7!

Confirmed, my HD6 (well, my mother's HD6) is now rooted :3

I seem to have lost root on reboot though
Or maybe it's because I un-installed the app?
Now to figure out how to get the Play Store working...

I restarted my Fire several times throughout the day and still root.
What is the app you've uninstalled?
Here is a screenshot of Root Checker on my tablet right now.

Yeah, it's because I uninstalled KingRoot. Need to get SuperSU in here... somehow

Well, I try sideload SuperSu directly on my Fire but when I open it, the app ask me to update the su binaries, and a few seconds later shows me an error...
Any suggestions?

Has anyone successfully installed the Google Play Store?

Unfortunately, no. Android root stuff isn't something I'm too familiar with. I think we've still got a long way to go...

So what does the development road look like from here? Do we need a custom recovery before any roms start coming?
Thanks for this, I am excited to get home and play with my tablet!

I'm wondering how similar this Kindle is to the previous version software wise. Maybe some of the older methods will work now we have root?

This is the situation right now:
It is now possible to root the Fire HD 6 (and 7, as I'm reading)
The root is persistent while you don't uninstall the KingRoot app.
For now, you can not install the SuperSU app (throws an error)
Installing System Tuner Pro gives you the ability to uninstall system applications, review the logs of the kernel, modify the file build.prop, among other things (Other apps can also be used for do this...).
It is not possible (for now) install Gapps until to find an advanced recovery that it works with this tablet. Despite this, you can install some Google apps like YouTube, Google, and Google Search taking an alternative way. Read this thread for more information:
(Yes, there is still road ahead ...)

[Q] Need Help - GooManager Error and other question's

Hey Guys,
I recently bought a Nexus 7 from ebay. The guy I bought it from had put Paranoid Android 3 on it. I am cimplete noob and do not know how to root or flash.
I just did something which I dont know how to correct.
GooManager kept telling me there was an update which when tapped on, would bring me to the .zip file i was supposed to dl.
I recently went into GooManager and denied permissions and then quickly re enabled them in supersu but now when ever I get the update prompt it brings me to the GooManager home screen with a message that says "GooManager has been granted super user permissions for an inactive shell"
What did I do wrong and do you have any idea how I can:
1. Fix this error
2. Go about updating the Nexus 7 to the newest version of paranoid
3. Can Someone link me to the full instructions on how to get the newest paranoid 3 on my nexus 4?
Thanks a ton

1. there is no error
2. launch goomanager, hit check for updates, when it alerts you, let it down load and flash
3. go to the nexus 4 forum, there is a thread dedicated to Paranoid Android there.

but in the past when I would click on the update notification it brought me straight to the download file. now it just brings me to the goomanager main screen.
reboot the device and try again. or you can go in and clear out all data and cache for goomanager in your settings/apps/goomanager page
I did a reboot and then cleared data and cashe and the notification just vanishes when tapped. Not sure how this happened. Can anyone link me to the latest PA 3 link to dl. ill just do it manually and maybe it will correct itself in the future.

open the NEXUS 7 ORIGINAL DEVELOPMENT FORUMS and download yourself, or open GOOMANAGER and BROWSE COMPATIBLE ROMS...
I have an associated question: does GooManager require the separate SuperSU app to be installed?
My device (a Motorola Xoom) is supposedly rooted, but SuperSU fails to install and GooManager can't get root permission. It's frustratingly difficult to tell (on this device at least) if there's proper root access - one checker app tells me the tablet is rooted, others say it isn't.

Hi, TyneBridges...
Well, I've never used GooManager myself... but the apps description on PlayStore certainly suggests you do need to be rooted to be use it.
You're a long way from the Motorola Xoom forums (wherever they may be)... but try, from PlayStore, running some app that requires root... like Titanium backup, or perhaps better, Android Terminal emulator (by Jack Palevich)... run it, and type...
Code:
su
If you're NOT rooted, you should see something like this...
Code:
$su
su: not found
$
-------------------------------------------------------
One last thought that's just occurred to me.... you may actually already BE rooted (ie., have the SU binary installed in /system/bin or /system/xbin or wherever)... but you may be just missing the SuperSU app itself (and which 'manages' the apps you grant root to). This is has happened to me, several times, when re-rooting... for reasons which remain a mystery.
But you can download it from PlayStore, here...
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.supersu
If you have some root SU binary installed, then Chainfire's SuperSU app should detect it... and either replace it, or update it.
Anyway... just some thoughts.
I really have no idea what other technical issues/problems there might be rooting a Motorola Xoom. And so you should hunt out the XDA forum for your specific device for more information... I'd be very surprised if there wasn't one.
Good luck.
Rgrds,
Ged.

Thanks for the reply. You imply that the SuperSU app *is* needed but that's the one that I've tried, and failed, to install. It just keeps telling me that the binary needs to be updated then, when I accept that, a pause and "Installing" followed by "Installation failed". I've tried the terminal program you suggest
su
Gives:
Permission denied
...so it appears that the tablet is not correctly rooted, but I don't know what the problem is.

Hi, again John...
I'm afraid I'm a bit out of my depth with the Motorola Xoom... I know absolutely nothing about it. Sorry.
Here's where you should really be asking...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/motorola-xoom
...if anybody can solve your problem, then that's where you're likely to find them.
----------------------------------------------
If you can install a Custom Recovery like TWRP or CWM on your device, then it **SHOULD** (theoretically) just be a case of flashing Chainfire's UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.94, via that Custom Recovery.
On Nexus devices, you use FASTBOOT to flash a Custom Recovery.... on Samsung Devices, you need something called Odin to do likewise.
Once you have a Custom Recovery installed, rooting should be a piece of cake.
Problem is, I have absolutely no idea how to get such a Custom Recovery installed on a Xoom.
Do a bit of research... XDA is a vast repository of considerably more knowledgeable people than myself... and somebody is likely to know something.
Good luck.
Rgrds,
Ged.

Yota development?

Looking at the new Yota phone, will there be any development (root, ROMs, themes etc) for this device?
Has it already begun or are developers waiting?
I am thinking about getting one (the device) so I wanted to know about tweaks I could potentially start with, root being the first.

i have honestly not heard about this device and its looks pretty cool! i cant wait to see what development we might get for it.
I'm also very interested in the Yotaphone
As of now, it is available in Germany.
I really want to get one, I'm just waiting for the first user reviews an especially wheter the phone can be rooted and the reading app FBReader will be re-configured to work with the eink screen.
Hopefully, Framaroot will be able to root the phone and from a comment on FRReader's Facebook page, it seems that the Devs are collaborating with the Yota team to make FBReader compatible.
Good news: FBReader has been updated!
1.9.4:
* Added support for YotaPhone e-ink screen
link to Play Store
hopefully, the first users getting their Yotaphone can try it out and report back
And as FBreader is open source (GitHub), lets hope that more and more devs use their code and calls to the yota library to support the e-ink screen in their apps
Root
According to a Russian Board, the Yotaphone can indeed be rooted throug Framaroot (by using the Gandalf exploit intendet for Qualcomm SoCs)
Source
Lets just hope that the bootloader is unlocked and we can access Fastboot or something similar.
IMO we don't even need full ROMs as the Yotaphone is running vanilla Android that could easily be tweaked throug the Xposed Framework and something like GravityBox
Hello guys, im having my yota phone now!
see attachment,
and i can confirm that i am rooted by gandalf exploit framaroot.
Would def appreciate a review ))

Ok, guys! I've just rooted my Yotaphone. android 4.2.2.
I need big favour now. I can choose only MTP and PTP connection. So far I couldn't found any good soft to mass storage connections.
Can I install any additional soft? For Example: "USB Mass Storage Enabler" was really close to connect "Mass storage mode" but after I choose "Mass storage mode" I don't see MTP connection on computer screen and nothing more.
Disable (uncheck) 'USB debug mode' that might bring mtp back.
Alternatively, freeze the enabler app and see if that brings mtp back.

I was able to root the yotaphone with Kingo root. Activated Xposed installer and Gravitybox. No problems were encountered during that but after trying for system upgrade, it failed and now phone keeps restarting. Going for factory reset now.

for Yota 1 i dont know! sorry
i have asked Yota Devices for GPL'd kernel sources and their intention to support Custom ROM development in general, but so far I have not heard a real answer from them, just a link to the developer section on their website. That contains info for app-developers, not ROM development (at least at this moment). Maybe if more people ask, they will release sources, which will help development.
Bootloop after Chainfire 3d driver install
Hello all,
I have successfully rooted my Yotaphone c9660 using Kingo Root. I installed the driver in Chainfire 3d application. After that my phone restarted and entered a bootloop . After reading over forums and got to know that the bootloop happened because of the driver. The solution is to remove the library files using adb on the pc. But that requires a recovery like CWM. I have no CWM because I used Kingo. I dont think the phone also has a default recovery. Can anyone suggest how to fic the issue.
Thanks in advance!

Hellooo.
Is it possible to access the bootloader / download mode in this model? If so then you could attempt to unlock the bootloader, then look around and see if someone made a custom recovery like cwm or twrp. If someone has then you can flash that and attempt what you need to do.
Good luck.

[GUIDE] A tutorial to install the xposed framework on rooted HTC Desire 816 phones

I know many of us are quite frustrated with the xposed module installation on the rooted htc phones. The main culprit for it is the busy box application. This application contains all the terminal commands necessary to break the security of the stock mobile system. It is not a virus application though but install those commands and provide you the functionality to execute the framework changes needed for some important apks like Titanium backup, adfree, xposed module, etc etc..
On HTC devices with Kitkat 4.4.2 specifically, due to the (S-ON) security feature, the busybox app will not get installed easily as apk even on the rooted custom roms. It must be installed separately along with the cwm recovery after updating the supersu. That is why many busybox installers lying on the play store are not working/effective anymore.
It could also be due to the busybox files getting installed either in the incorrect path/location (due to change in the internal sd card path in 4.4.2 kitkat versions) or the S-ON feature must be stopping from installing at the right place. Whatever may be the reasons for not working, there is fix for this issue and the steps are outlined below.
DISCLAIMER: Please don't blame me if you corrupt your device by following the below process. I am pretty sure that the below process works flawlessly, but the reason for failing or corrupting your device could be a combination of several existing issues in your phone. So I take no responsibility for your bricked devices.
Now the coolest part:
1. Your HTC desire 816 must be rooted and should have working clockworkmod recovery. Otherwise this trick doesnt work at all.
2. First lets fix the busy box app - Go to playstore and download Busybox on Rails free apk from here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=me.timos.busyboxonrails
3. Open the Busybox on Rails app, select the Operation option as "Cleanup & Install" and method as Recovery (and not "normal"). This will reboot your device into recovery and install the busy box application.
4. Reboot the system. Vola Busy box should have installed correctly now. To confirm that reopen the same Busybox on Rails app and see if the System Status shows up as OK. If it does, your busybox is successfully installed. If not by any chance, try repeating the steps 2, 3 and 4 again. It should work.
Some people install the terminal apk from play store and execute some su commands to verify if the busybox is installed properly. But that is for people having much knowledge on software scripting side of things.
5. Now lets install the xposed module - search for the xposed module apk from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/framework-xposed-rom-modding-modifying-t1574401 and install it. Remember to download the xposed disabler apk zip as well, just in case if your mobile gets corrupted, you can flash that to bring back your original settings.
6. Install the xposed module and open Framework within the apk
7. Before hitting the Install/update option, change the Installation mode from defaulted Classical (Write to /system directly) mode to the middle one Recovery (flash zip automatically) mode. Dont change anything else in the settings.
8. Now hit Install/update
9. Phone will reboot the system into recovery mode, install the xposed module.
10. Reboot the phone and Volaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!!! Enjoy the xposed framework in your mobile, which opens the endless opportunities to tweak your mobile.
Hit the thanks button if I have helped you in any way.
This method might works on all HTC models with S-ON security feature and 4.4.2 android Kitkat version, but have not tested it myself though. However, my friend did say it worked on HTC one latest model. Dont blame me if it doesn't by any chance.

The only advantage of installing busybox and xposed installer is to open up endless opportunities of tweaking your mobile to look and behave the way you want (in most cases). Also some finest apps like titanium backup, and others etc use these busy box services too.
The link2sd app may or may not work and in my view it is totally unrelated. I havent tried that much, so cannot comment much on that I am afraid.

Lnk2Sd is somehow useful for users with partition, very useful for low internal memory devices. Though a high quality SD card is necessary. Thanks to this tutorial. CONFIRMED WORKING for Xposed Framework.

It is very unusual to see that happen without you connecting to pc and trying to unlock the bootloader from HTC dev site. This was first time hearing that this can happen without trying to root or alter the mobiles internal system.
Anyways, to unlock bootloader, you have to go via HTC site and there is no other alternative as of now. The moment you unlock your bootloader, you will see that TAMPERED message in the hboot. If you are also receiving the red text while booting HTC that "This device has been tampered/altered and is development purposes only.... blah blah blah message", then definitely it has been unlocked bootloader.
May be your phone is a unlocked version, which requires the vendor to unlock the bootloader first and then have to unlock the service carrier. In this case you would get that message for sure, without you having to do anything. This way you will not have manufacture warranty, but will have the vendor warranty. Check with the place where you bought that piece.
Btw, if you find out that it has already been unlocked, then you might as well can root it as it makes your piece worth buying. All the best.
Hi, already follow the guides and steps given and now how can I know xposed working on my phone? What should I do next?

This is for stock ROM's.
Yeah I know. I've only ever used stock and cm11. Never had a problem besides some of the status bar icons not all changing colors. Install always went fine.

Yeah some HTC 816 devices have the problem with busy box installation and that is why xposed framework doesn't work immediately after rooting.

Mine too, in the first try there is warning in CWM about losing root etc. (sorry for my goldfish memory), the second try is ok but Busybox stills show "missing applets". However, you can continue to install Exposed Framework.
Big thanks to vbrsekhar!

[How To] Downgrade to 4.5.3 so you can root device

Step by step instructional video
Help setting up adb for windows: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CyJlmTtLsIg
If you are already running Fire OS 4.5.3 and below, all you need to do is follow this video to root: https://youtu.be/KcQ30qcImJc
Steps:
1. Install the Fire OS 5.0 developer preview. EDIT: Do not do this. If you already have a lollypop ROM installed, use that instead of installing dev preview (You could cause a brick)
2. Enable ADB on your device and set up ADB on your computer
3. Download 4.5.3 firmware: https://kindle-fire-updates.s3.amazonaws.com/update-kindle-20.4.5.3_user_453011120.bin (Mirror coming soon. This download works for the Fire HD7 and HD6)
4. connect device to computer and run "adb reboot recovery"
5. use volume keys and power button to navigate to "Apply update from ADB"
6. from computer type "adb sideload update-kindle-20.4.5.3_user_453011120.bin"
7. from tablet select "wipe data/factory reset"
8. from tablet select "reboot system"
9. Complete setup (do not connect to a wifi network yet)
10. Download KingRoot: http://www.kingroot.net/
11. Download JmzFireHDTool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/fir...ool-jmz-fire-hd-7-tool-gapps-disable-t3113655
12. install both apps. "adb install KingRoot-4.1.0.249-release-nolog-201505211812_105001.apk" and "adb install JmzFireHDTool_v4.apk"
13. Temporarily disable otaverify via adb "adb shell pm block com.amazon.otaverifier" (spelled wrong in video)
14. Connect to wifi so that KingRoot can work
15. Open KingRoot on your device
16. press "try to root"
17. re-enable otaverifier "adb shell pm unblock com.amazon.otaverifier" (spelled wrong in video)
18. Open JMZ Fire Tools and press "Disable OTA's"
Note: If you ever need to upgrade back to lollypop, you should follow these steps so you do not brick device: http://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-hd/general/tools-fire-hd-67-rooting-gapps-t3371242/page4
Awesome find !!! Here is a direct link to the 5.2.0 update file:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-hd/general/lolipop-ota-capture-t3141810
After the downgrade, install TWRP, and upgrade to 4.5.4 but this time with root and fully working GAPPS:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-hd/general/root-v2-0-fireos-4-5-4-gapps-t3150613
http://forum.xda-developers.com/fire-hd/general/how-to-upgrade-to-4-5-4-twrp-root-t3141648
This way one goes directly to SuperSu, and a clean device with no traces of KingRoot.

ah yes good idea. I'm hoping someone with ROM development knowledge will start a build. We've got just about everything setup so that a custom ROM can run

The tricky part is that the unlocked bootloader still needs a signed kernel. Which is pretty constraining. It'd be interesting to replace the boot preloader, but the risks are high.
Upon boot (if connected to PC), the system flashes MT65xx pre-loader. Which seems to indicate that one could start looking into programs such as "Smart Phone Flash Tool" and "MTK Droid Tools" for MTK chipsets.
Another hope is that the 5.0 version would be sufficiently buggy, such that the bootloader can be made to boot unsigned kernels.

Hashcode has gotten around this issue multiple times with something called a bootstrap but I'm not too sure how it works

Btw, any chance you could post the direct link to 5.0 preview (for non-developers), since it's probably behind some registration page or something ...
i just signed in with my amazon account, you will need to unroot your fire and reset it as 5.0 is a OTA.

I wish I could find that bin file link... I looked for it but could not find a link to the actual bin file.. If ota's download to the sdcard then It could still be accessed but I don't know where it downloads to. If it downloads to the data dir of the app it would be inaccesable since you need to be on the latest update in order to download the 5.0 version and on the latest version we have no root which means no access to data dir

It worked perfectly. Thanks
Despite really wanting root and the possibility of using my already paid for apps from the Play store, I really like the lollipop version of fire os. I do think it's a bit ridiculous they haven't retained the old kindle skin because it's exactly how every real android tablet looks but at this point they should be forced by law to let people use the Play store as they wish. Sort of like how Verizon was once forced to allow tethering without a subscription.

does adb devices list your device. Maybe try re-downloading the update in case of corruption
Sent from my LG-V480 using Tapatalk
Perfect timing! Lost root last week and hoped for a way to get back. You the man
I wonder if there is a way to stop the update once it's downloaded, in order to grab the 5.0 update bin from /cache.
This would help to re-pack the update in a way that does not re-write key partitions, then one can have TWRP and root on 5.0
It does sound like 5.0 is a nice update, since it provides stock Android. That's what custom ROMs are usually for, but Amazon will give it away !

I was wondering the same. Seems like you could rename the otaverifier apk back to (plain) .apk and get the download but by keeping com...otaverifier blocked it wouldn't install. I'm just not sure these developer updates are handled like any other.

Root Xperia Z2 Tablet (All Models/Regions) on 5.1.1 build 23.4.B.0.319 in 3 Steps

Hello everyone,
I've noticed that there hasn't been any threads about rooting the Xperia Z2 Tablet on lollipop. Most threads have discussed how to root the device on 4.4.4 and to create an update image to maintain your root whilst updating to 5.0+.
I've scoured the interwebs and found nothing so I'll make it easy for those whom don't know how to achieve root or don't want to do much work without creating images and such.
First off I'm not responsible for any inconvenience that may come with rooting your device and losing your warranty. I can and will be willing to help out in restoring or answering questions that you may have.
This method uses Kingroot... For those who have a problem with kingroot, it is only used to achieve root and this guide will also be showing you how to remove kingroot and install Supersu with ease. Using the link below download the necessary files: Kingroot V4, Supersume, XZDualRecovery 2.8.26. Place all these files on the root of your devices internal storage/SD card excluding Xdualrecovery as that needs a PC. (If you want to Xposed working I will also supply the files needed for that as well). https://www.mediafire.com/download/wrsajbgw2jr6czt
*Make sure you have unknown sources enabled under Settings>Security>Device administrators as well as Developer Options available and USB debugging enabled. (To enable Developer Options go to Settings>About Tablet>Build Number and click it 10 times).
1. Install NewKingroot.apk and run the application. It will notify you that a root method was found and to try it. It may take up to 2 minutes to achieve root. (If all you wanted was root and are content with kinguser then you're done! :good: if you want Supersu and/or a custom recovery then continue on to step 2!
2. Connect your Tablet to your PC via microUSB. On your PC open and extract the contents of TabZ-lockeddualrecovery2.8.26-RELEASE.combined.zip to your desktop. Now double click install.bat a screen will pop up providing you with options to install xdualrecovery. Choose option 2. Installation on ROM rooted with SuperUser by pressing 2 and enter. The script will run its course and tell you to grant permission on your tablet. Open up your tablet and a kinguser prompt will show asking you to grant or deny permission to ADB (Grant it!!!) afterwards your tablet will reboot on it's own to TWRP. (I advise you to either make a backup of the tablet now or after you install Supersu as insurance in case of any mishaps). Click reboot System.
3.Install Supersume, open the application and run it. It will of course ask to grant it permission (Grant it!!!) it will check the environment (making sure that there isn't any Pokemon nearby that you don't need... Sorry Pokemon Go reference) and it will begin removing kingroot and install Supersu. If you didn't have Supersu installed already great! It'll open up Supersu automatically. Supersu may ask you to update binaries (DO NOT click TWRP as it will reboot and you have to start the process over from step one!!! :crying: Just click Normal and once it says successful you're done! :victory: The next step is optional if you Want Xposed.
*Optional 4. Install XposedInstaller_3.0_alpha4.apk. Open your app drawer and open NDR Utils. It will ask for permission (Grant it!!!) now here you may choose your preferred recovery... Philz Touch Recovery,TWRP or Clockwork Mod Recovery. Click Reboot to Primary Recovery (fourth option) once it's rebooted you want to click install>SD>xposed-v85.1-sdk22-arm-by-romracer-20160620.zip and swipe to install. You should get a success when it's finished. Now simply reboot and your apps will be upgrading. Congratulations you now have root with SuperSU and xposed! :victory:
**if you wish to uninstall Xposed simply reboot to recovery and click install>SD>xposed-uninstaller-20151218-arm.zip uninstall the application once it's rebooted and you're good to go!
***if you have a problem with Supersume not working, reinstall Newkingroot.apk and run it again to get root. Then run supersume again (Grant permission!!!) and let it run its magic.
If anyone has issues, has questions or needs help PM and I will do my best to help and answer all your questions. Please don't be discouraged because I'm new here! I will be soon adding a link to a video tutorial on how all these steps can be done!

Power off device. While device is booting up at the Sony logo hold power and volume down/up (depends on customer recovery) until led flashes green and device vibrates then let go

That's great news to hear! I picked one up and wanted to root and I did on KitKat but when I upgraded to lollipop I lost root and rooted it the long way... Needed something simpler and couldn't find anything on here. So I wanted to make sure a guide was available to all. Enjoy and let me know how it went

If you're talking about your google drive, there is no kingoapp.apk in there
All there is:
- supersume.apk
- tabz-lockeddualrecovery
- xposed uninstaller
- xposed v85.1
- xposed installer
I downloaded the most recent kingroot, which worked on my Verizon sgp561, and then I used your superuser file to change over to su. Seems to work just fine.. I'm on 5.1.1.
I tried the most recent kingroot and it fails.
An old version gave me an error code of 0x162982
