[Suggestion] Root LP 5.1.1 for LB

Hi guys
after 5.1.1 update there is no root for it , root only by install pre-rooted rom
so i think if we change the kernel to 5.0 kernel and root it by kingroot it will success !
anyone try it ?*
if anyone can try it this is the kernel.ftf files
for C6602*https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bz4K0UTIzVb9UWE4bDYxM0FnTDQ/view?usp=docslist_api
for C6603*https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bz4K0UTIzVb9cWVZaTktNmxBUFE/view?usp=docslist_api

Sorry, it creates a boot-loop. It doesn't work.

But it's not kernel related. It's 5.1.1 new Fw so u need to wait for working root solution. Anyway, don't try install 5.0 kernel in 5.1 bcoz IMO it's stupid (no offence)

nobody is forcing you to do this method!
Its only unlocked briefly and then relocked again, you can do whatever you like, I'm just suggesting the easiest way. at this point in time,
when you restore the TA partition bootloader is relocked read here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2292598
every kid? c'mon man, its because he asked

actually if you're going to downgrade to a rootable version anyways, you don't need to unlock the bootloader at all.
1- downgrade to 5.02
2-root
3-install recovery
4- download a pre-rooted rom or from ftf make your own with prfcreator (make sure to fix recovery or install the latest beta).
5- now you have a rooted 5.1.1 with recovery with locked bootloader.

prf creator is great!
But in my experience, you should flash the recovery.zip and supersu.zip manually after the main.zip, but before rebooting, just to be safe!
OP - already knew about prerooted roms.

Do I need to unlock the bootloader?

Hello!
I want to finally install a custom rom for my phone (GT-I9301I) but to do that I want to install TWRP. Every tutorial on how to install TWRP just use odin and phone in download mode despite the fact that in a lot of places it is said that you need to have an unlocked bootloader to flash a custom recovery. (Also in CF-auto root webpage it is stated that bootloader needs to be unlocked). But do I really need to unlock the bootloader (yes, I am new to this) to flash a custom recovery when using Odin? And after the TWRP is installed I can just use CF auto root and then install the ROM, right?
I would greatly appreciate your help !
Thanks in advance,
TheKiloOhm

I'm pretty sure, that S3Neo+ has an unlocked bootloader.

There is a way to flash a recovery without a PC. Use Flashify just from the Play Store.

But I need root access which I can get by flashing CF auto root.
Is Towelroot considered as a common rooting tool?

Is there a way I can check it? When I boot into recovery it doesn't show anything about lock/unlock state.

Well.. Try booting to download mode. (Vol. and center button down on boot). If you want to root you should download custom recovery. I recommend TWRP.

Ok, first of all..
I AM REALLY HAPPY SOMEONE MENTIONED THIS AT LAAAAAAAAAAAAAAST
Now.. I have this device.. and mine is bootloader locked
our s3ve3g is definitely locked...
and I tried to flash TWRP using ODIN and I ended up looping (Read)
So Take Care ...
Been trying to find a way to unlock this thing for a while now... will post my findings here or on my blog if I ever find anything
Edit: Did I mention that some variants of our specific device are locked and some are not !!
and I can't figure out the difference...

Found this
and it pointed me to this
but I don't have time to test now...

OK... I think I found the answer...
According to IanWorthington
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=66377330#post66377330
FIXED: This TWRP requires 4.4.4. It does NOT work on 4.3.

Samsug bidn't lock bootloader for s3 neo i have a i9301i and i can do anything with it recoevry root vustom rom kernel flashing. ANYITHING. So i think it deneds on serial nunber or something

With stock recovery you can flash only official updates.

Ok. I figured that. I can't unlock or root this Asus zenfone 551kl. Fast boot tells me it's unlocked but it's not. Won't root. Won't do anythimg. I've tried every unlock tool for every variant. None work. No one click root apps work. It's mind boggling lol

You have to flash with twrp not the stock recovery

You will have to unlock bootloader to flash anything other than a stock ROM. There's no known way around this.

P8 Lite 2015 locked in bootloop

Hi guys, I'm asking for help for my son P8 Lite (Ale 21 Brand wind android 6.0) which after unlocking and installing the TWRP recovery, the root has not been successful and the terminal locks on the wind logo. Unfortunately, even if I can gain access to the recovery, the backup I had previously made is not able to reset the phone. I wonder if there is some way to recover the phone without having to flash the stock firmware.
a thank you all in advance
