the fun has just begun

KingRoot worked fine on my GT-I9192 (S4 Mini Duos) 4.4.2. KingoRoot failed to root.

Like an idiot i Just tried to flash twrp with using flashfire. Now I'm stuck in download mode. What do i need to recover this phone since i cant flash with odin cause of yhe locked bootloader?? Please help...
Nevermind all i had to do was hold the vol + power button and it removed the custom recovery install and i was able to boot normally.

bootloop
I got bootloop trying some xposed framework, all I had to do was uninstall xposed and try modules one by one

Wanted to install something with a full language pack for my father in law.

Installed a language enabler app but it didn't change the language for any of the settings or phone navigation.

I had rooted the I9192DDUCNL1 firmware available for India with KingRoot. Not sure about I9192DDUCOF2.

To all who managed to root this phone, did anyone manage to flash anything on it (custom recovery, custom ROM) or are you still running the stock firmware?
To anyone using safestrap, how is that working out, regarding speed, stability etc?
Sorry if off-topic here.

kingo root dont full root, can you update binarys?

As you already said. Fist of all you need root permission on your device. But because you already installed 5.1.1 via OTA I'm afraid your device is "locked down". If KingRoot isn't able to root 5.1.1, then there is no easy way to get root on your device. In this case you have to downgrade first via Flashtool. Or you could unlock your bootloader and flash a custom kernel which has twrp integrated. But keep in mind that you will loose your drm keys this way.
BTW: I wouldn't use KingRoot even if it is able to root your device, because I don't trust this app....
Thnx mate for your reply
OK I will downgrade my tablet to 5.0.2
But I need you plz to point where I get my previous Android
And if I flashed it with flashtool all my data will be gone?!
Then I will root my tablet again then flashed this stock in this thread, am I right?!
And btw, why you didn't trust kingroot app, it's working with my tablet just fine! ?

Try this FTF:
http://www.android-hilfe.de/thema/s...ny-xperia-tablet-z.457524/page-3#post-7918151
After that, use XZDR (TabZ-lockeddualrecovery2.8.21-RELEASE.installer.zip) from here:
http://nut.xperia-files.com/
Use Option 3 from Installer, which will use an root-exploit, that is still available in .230 Firmware.
In newer Firmwares this option isn't working anymore and you need to root by your own first.
And finally flash this PreRooted Image via TWRP or CWM
Mr.ironhide said:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Depends on which Options you use to flash. If you exclude Data-Partition, then Data will be still there. But booting KitKat-Firmware with Lollipop-Data will not work or at least will screw up everything. So in the end you would need to wipe data anyway. (Be aware that flashing FTF including Data-Partition will also wipe internal storage / internal sdcard)
Mr.ironhide said:

Well, there are mainly two things:
1. It needs a internet connection for rooting (who knows which data is send to them ...)
2. It isn't always providing a full working root, which is not very nice for devolpers and users, because their apps/packages maybe don't work properly...
Thank you Mcbane87
Well,I already downgraded my TabZ SGP321 and flashed kitkat 4.4.4 with build number 10.5.1.A.0.283 via flashtool like you said, even I got many failed steps at the beginning but I did it
Then I rooted my tablet using this thread :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-tablet-z/development/root-sp321-ftf-10-5-1-0-283-t2873377
So what to do next?! and I had another couple of questions please:
1- I am from Egypt so when looked into this firmware I didn't find Arabic language, is that Normal and how I get Arabic language
2- why I feel that kitkat is much better than lollipop and much easier and battery life is much better while I am playing my game with charger connected still battery going low slowly ?
Note: I am using root only to use Xmod for playing Clash Of Clans :laugh:!
I flashed it, seemed all ok, but:
no root, no recovery? no SuperSu in my Apps, I failed to enter recovery. What did I do wrong? what to do now?

you must reflash a rooted Firm(like 230) with flashtool.
Starting enable debuging and install nuts recovery 2.870 with option 1.
Then reboot and hold volume down when the green light on and you are only in TRWP mode.
Flash the 5.1 from sd1 and all was good.

It's faster to flash .230 .ftf stock unrooted, install recovery with option 3 and after that flash what you need from TWRP.
Well it's an easy, I flashed this stock via twrp and I used root checker to be sure that's my tab is rooted but I didn't find supersu!
Is this normal or i did something wrong?!!!

if SuperSu is incorporated into a ROM, it can sometimes be hidden in Developer Options. Failing that, just install it from the Play Store.

In short xposed framework is just an addition to the in-built framework of your ROM. It helps you to customize your ROM for personalization and adding extra features to your device. Try googling xposed framework and keep working on it to get deeper knowledge about its modules and stuff.
But, make sure you know how to recover your device from bootloop and softbrick before installing the xposed framework. :good:

Could be possible, because this is ROM was created from Sony for Germany. Maybe they didn't integrated Arabic language and letters.

Didn't made that much comparison with TabZ, but on my Z1c I can confirm that some things are better with KitKat like bluetooth (only 5.02...didn't testet 5.1.1 till now) and other things like touchscreen response (phantom touching) is better in lollipop. Concerning batterylife I didn't saw any difference.
Well and the design / functions of lollipop are a question of personal liking. I personally hate the new LockScreen and its notification behaviour.
I would be happy finding a xposed module which would bring back old lockscreen on Lollipop, but I'm afraid this isn't that easy....
Well, I am big fan of Sony, I got Sony Xperia Z and I love lollipop in it and btw I have installed stock firmware prerooted as well
But frankly I am preferring kitkat in my tablet it's looks much better and easier
Anyway thank you for your helping bro

Did you try Gravity Box LP and Serajr Xperia™ Xposed (LP)? They will definitely help to change the look of Sony LP. Work good on 5.0.2 and 5.1.1

New method to root the S5 mini (g800h) on lollipop

As most of the users dont like the russian method of rooting on 5.1.1 due to the unknown kernel source and others dont trust it i dont know why :v
Dj_steve made his own kernel that works with Su just like the russian one
Kernel link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5-mini/orig-development/kernel-custom-tweaked-kernel-5-1-1-tw-t3266618
Recovery link:http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5-mini/orig-development/recovery-qualcomm-twrp-2-8-7-0-t3245256
And finally Su link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwuSX5zRNLjtTVhzd3J2YXgwaTQ/view?usp=docslist_api
Installation :
Flash the recovery with odin
Flash the kernel with the recovery
Flash the Su.zip with the custom recovery
All done
Now you're rooted
Thanx for Dj_steve for making the kernel
thanx for jackeagle for making the recovery
Thanx for chanfaire for making Su
and finally thanx to blue cat from 4pda for his kernel that explained that we have to disable some sammy security stuff in order to obtain root access
Have a nice day

Having a bit of a problem with rooting G800H/DS. I have used either the Russian or Indian 5.1.1, and rooted with the Russian or DJ_steve's kernel + recovery + SU. Removed Knox with Titanium Backup. Everything works fine for a day or two, but then suddenly when rebooting the phone gets stuck in a reboot cycle. Anybody else having the same problem, or hopefully a solution?

Galaxy Grand prime SM-G530F reboot after root

I'm new to rooting, and have rooted my phone using KingoRoot from my P.C.
It works fine, but when I reboot, it reboots into recovery mode which then allows me to reboot normally.
I surfed some of the forums to find a solution to this and found a common answer which I tried.
1) Factory reset
2) Wipe partition/cache
3) Reboot
This I did, but it has not resolved the issue.

Thanks for your response, I'll have a look at flashify, will it unroot the phone?
O.K. Had a look, have installed, will look for some tutorials before I use it !
I cannot find a download link for the correct build number and even when I go to download by country/carrier it is not listed.
TWRP has no listing for it, and neither does CWM. PHILZ just doesn't go there...
I suspect that it is already somewhere on the phone since it is "stock" but after having looked, I am unable to find it.
Any suggestions ?
I might can upload mine kernal, but it's 5.1.1, if you want to use my kernal you have to upgrade to 5.1.1 lolipop. If you want to do that pls let me know I will teach you how to.
Yes, Lollipop will be fine !

Thanks for your response !
My phone is already rooted and has been rebooted a few times since then.
So, what now ?
So, I downloaded samsung Kies 3.2 (latest) and connected the phone, no problem there.
When I click initialise upgrade, Kies stops responding.
Downloaded Kies 3.1 - same thing.
According to Samsung update, there is no upgrade for my phone to 5.1.1. Are you sure that this is possible. You said that you would teach me, but you have really not told me anything !
Next ?

First, the grand prime is able to update to 5.1.1 lolipop, I'm sure because mine is on 5.1.1. Go to Settings -> About phone, on the top you can see a option to update your phone. After update your phone go download kingroot and flashify. After you root your phone , use flashify to flash the kernal back to stock one. I will upload stock kernal soon.
There is no Samsung upgrade for the grand prime SM-G530F

I have looked for it and not found it. There are some galaxy prime phones that do (G531F does)
I just want to keep my phone rooted as it is, and sort out the boot issue.
If you can't help with this, thanks for trying !

Have you reboot yet? If you do and still works fine that's means you are good.
Problem is resolved !
I have resolved the issue myself.
It appears as if all I needed to do was remove the battery for a short period of time.
The phone now boots correctly and I have not lost my root access !

There are multiple threads right here in the forums that offer step to step instructions for rooting your model of grand prime. Use the search function and you'll find them.
Root is similar to having administrator rights on your computer, it allows deeper levels of modification than is available on an unrooted device. There are apps available that will allow you to transfer your apps to SD card also, however most, if not all require root.

You will have to unroot your device before updating, you may then be unable to root again for some time until a new method is found.
However there are custom ROMs available for you device amongst other things.
I invite you to read through the forums for more information

Well, if you have TWRP you can just flash SuperSU flashable zip[ a guaranteed successful root with a very easy way plus if you have phone with marshmallow and above kingroot won't able to root because of new anti-root protection added so normal/kingroot won't work]
The best way to root G530H is flashing this by odin. Link here. http://d-h.st/oqFc. After flashing it flash any recovery by odin.

You have to prepare for get to recovery quickly after flashing as if you didnt manage to go to recovery the phone will reset the recovery back to stock
