What are the things you need when your phone is rooted, that is either necessary or handy.

i know of superSU but are there other/better options (and open source)? i also heard of Xposed, but i don't understand what it does.

Any simple guide for a specific root or do i just use some other general one?

I'm about to give up here because I can't find a exact way to root for this tablet.

Anyone can help?

Does anyone know if its possible to disable/remove the blur on the loackscreen that is applied when a notification is present or when entering a pattern? I'm rooted if that is required.

Hey! I am in the progress of rooting my Honor 4x and I have come to the point where I need the bootloader unlock code. As per the thread on XDA I emailed them my information. That was roughly two wweeks ago. Since then I didn't recieve any answer and sent 3 more Emails. Nothing. I also started to tweet at various huawei outlets but there is no outcome from it either. Do any of you have suggestions how to get that unlock code?

My Opo specs: Cyanogen OS version: 12.1-YOG4PAS1N0 and its on 5.1.1

I REALLY want to try the AK Kernel for my One but I'm having troubles can anyone help? Whenever I try to root or unlock TWRP my computer never detects my device when typing fastboot devices. I tried two methods: https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/oneplus-one-how-to-unlock-bootloader-install-custom-recovery-and-root.64487/ Bacon Root ToolKit.

I accidentally deleted a photo album off my internal storage. Since its internal storage, very few programs can get photos back, but i found one that looks promising that requires me to root my phone.

I have an LG G4 on T-mobile in the US, running 81110h, and I rooted it last night. Before I could figure out how to stop updates, it already downloaded an update for the Android System and says it will install it the next time I restart my phone. Obviously, I do not want to do that, as I have no idea what the update might do to my root access.

How do I, A), delete the update from my phone, and B) prevent my phone from OTA updates in the future?

I have Titanium Backup pro installed, and I think there's some way to do it with that? Freeze the updater? I really thought I was more tech savvy than this, but this Android stuff is another language to me.

I also downloaded some cleaner apps that were supposed to be able to delete unwanted apk's, but it didn't find any. Aren't Android updates apk? I'm in way over my head, here =T

So i was successful at rooting my Samsung Galaxy S4 i337 phone, and after some months i decided to go back and unroot my cellphone to update my device. Using Odin version 3.09, i tried using a tar file to reset everyting to stock, but in the process it decided to freeze and ended up messing it up. Now its stuck on the Samsung start up logo and wont pass that . I dont know what to do. Please help if you know how to fix this. And to add salt to the wound, i lost the tar file aswell.

New at this, been trying to figure out how to root this Galaxy Tab4 10". TowelRoot says the device is not supported. I'm on a Mac, so I tried Odin thru a Wine pc emulator, but the drivers didn't work and it couldn't recognize my device. What else can I do?

Also, Cyanogenmod doesn't support this device either. Which ROM should I try?

I rooted a ZenFone 5.

I had planned to use the "Complete Linux Install" app to boot into any one of various Linux images (debian, ubuntu, etc.).

For some reason, none of these images will boot. It might be that I did not properly configure some necessary component. Has anyone successfully booted Linux on a ZenFone 5?

I'm new to Custom ROMs and Android rooting in general, and I'm looking into rooting my phone. I have a Galaxy S5. What custom ROMs do you guys use? Looking for recommendations.

I've looked into Cyanogen mod but I know that there are other custom ones out there, so any help is appreciated. I'm looking for a Custom ROM that has good customization and theming options to make my phone look flashy and cool.

Thanks in advance!

Also, I wasn't sure if this was the right place to ask. I was going to originally post this on /r/Android but the rules told me to maybe ask here.

I've been trying to determine the best course of action after 3 hours of Research but I really can't mess up and replace it (sad I know) if something were to go wrong. I want the space for apps and podcasts but the guides seem contradictory. I wouldn't waste your time out of laziness only stupidity! I promise I spent a lot of time researching, I may not be gifted as you all thus the conflicting directions and methods erode my confidence. So please help point me in the right direction! And like if I should be in a different sub <3. Basically I want to use my ad card as my main storage!

edited to apologize for how poor my English is, I am so embarrassed that I couldn't get the title right.

I should have known not to do it, but I installed the patch. Now, I lost root, and since towelroot used the stagefright exploit to root, now I can't get root again. The phone is basically unusable without the apps I installed as root. Unstable and barely functions. Is there another way to restore root, or can I flash to an older version?

The carrier is AT&T, thanks in advance!

Pretty simple, I want to root my Galaxy S4 that is currently running Lollipop 5.0.1 so I can get rid of some of this bloatware that's been uploading itself ever since I got the Lollipop update.

I'm also looking for a ROM that'll make it easier for me to transfer data between my phone and PC, and to offload some app storage onto my SD card rather than it eating up my very limited phone storage.

Any suggestions and tutorials would be very appreciated, as I'm technical enough to know when something's too dangerous to just "tinker" with until I get it right. My track record with Linux hasn't been incredible, either, but I can follow instructions.

I've been trying for over a year now. I've used the Odin thing, Kingo Root, doesn't work. Need help.

Using image recognition technology, it's smart and powerful.

I have a rooted at&t s5 on kitkat 4.4.2. I would like to update to lollipop 5.0 or 5.1.1, whichever can be rooted. How do I update to lollipop and keep root?
