Question about rooting - ZenFone 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I have one question about rooting my ZenFone 2 (ZE550ML).
I just got it did all system updates on it and rooted it with the fast method (root_zenfone.bat)
And now i'm triing to install Xposed but i can't because i need to install with CWM(because it's lollipop) and I don't have the CWM
Should I root again my phone with the second method ( Root through temporary CWM) so I can have CWN and get my xposed ? or an other ?
If you can help me a bit, thanks.

No...You don't need CWM to install Xposed framework.... See this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/general/asus-zenfone-2-flashing-recovery-mode-t3096596 (#6 Xposed Framework Installer)...Just download the xposed framework installer and follow the steps given in the guide... You will get Xposed framework as i did exactly the same thing with the latest firmware and it works...

Hey,
Sorry to revive an old thread. I just installed towelroot from towelroot(dot)com, it went successful. Now my phone says "towelroot" can damage your device. :crying: What should I so, I can't uninstall it can I?
I installed "Root Checker" from google play and it says "Root access is properly installed on this device!"
I couldn't find SuperSU on google play.
What's next? My device is Xperia M C2005 4.3 Stock FW, Build No 15.5.A.0.18
Thanks,

Supersu has been removed from playstore due to some reason. You can download it from their website or just search on Google.

Thanks for your reply. I was just wondering, if my phone is rooted, do I need to install SuperSU?
I checked SuperSU website www(dot)supersu(dot)com(slash)DOWNLOAD and all the links seem to be dead.
I wanted to install TWRP recovery, I installed the app from playstore, flashed twrp img to recovery, but when I try to reboot to recovery, it reboots normally. Am I doing something wrong?
Thanks for your help.

If you are in stock rom twrp won't work. Cwm recovery might work. And yes you should install supersu so you know which apps are using root access.

Okay great, but now I have more questions.
Xperia M C2005, Stock FW 4.3 Build 15.5.A.0.18
Bootloader unlocked: Yes
Phone Rooted: Yes
Now can I install SuperSU via adb command? Few weeks ago I installed SuperSU on my Moto X via TWRP and that's the only method I know so far
or is there any other method? I found the zip file on download(dot)chainfire(dot)eu, now I don't know how to flash it without TWRP.
I'm also planing to install a cleaner much lighter custom rom. Can I do it without TWRP? If yes, how? If you can guide me to a thread or link that's be great too.
Thank yo so very much for your help. :highfive:

If you are already rooted then just install supersu apk. If you google it you'll find many sites having download links.
For custom rom, well I think you misunderstood me. You can access twrp while on stock rom. It's just that you can't flash anything I guess. (I actually forgot what was the problem anyways) I think you are pressing vol - button while power on. Try keep pressing vol + button after installing twrp through adb command. Then usual procedure for installation of custom roms
Here's link to how to install custom rom but one thing is make sure you flash magisk zip along with rom zip.

Removing xposed from 5.1

I got xposed installed and I'm looking to remove it from my phone to update to latest version of go and root.
However in the "uninstall" button of framework is greyed out.
I read an article that said I must download and Uninstaller and boot it from my custom recovery.
However I have not flashed a custom recovery, I am just rooted and with xposed.
Should I attempt to install TWRP or is there a way to remove it without installing things?
In the xposed thread there is an uninstall file for download.
How did you install Xposed? Uninstall it the same way.
How did i know which one is the right version?

How to Install Custom TWRP recovery on LG D858HK 6.0 v30a (Marshmallow)

I upgraded my LG G3 D858HK to Marshmallow v30a, I would like to install custom TWRP recovery on my phone, although my phone is not rooted yet, Please guide me how I can do this
actually I want to install SuperSU binary(which is in zip file) to root my phone.

Either downgrade to Kitkat using TOT/KDZ and LG Upgrade Tool or if you want a one click method and trust Chinese downloads, then download Autorec and root package from:
http://pan.baidu.com/s/1o6YpUsE
Use password: rjte
Navigate to one of the folders which has kingroot app, which roots temporarily and then use autorecmm app for D858HK. This should downgrade bootloader to Kitkat, install TWRP, downgrade modem to compatible version and flash bumped MM boot image. Of course, permanent root with SuperSu will be there as well.
If you prefer DIY methods then there are a few other posts by me and @topet2k12001 which should be helpful.

Hi, you must install KingRoot latest version and Beta Super su 2.5.2. After this you would have enabled administrator permission.
In case of failure the update binaries in SuperSu, you must again install TWRP apps in order to install the custom recovery ( the latest version is 3.0) and finally, you must install the Supersu file (from recovery) in version 2.52 (is the one that works best on android Marhsmallow).

root is the problem, I am not able to root my Phone, I tried Kingroot, but no luck,
You must install to KingRoot in latest version from its official site. Then run the application and leaves that the process is complete. In the end, the application will show an error message indicating that it has not been possible to establish root on your phone. You should try to at least three times. If the error persists, install the application root check and verify if the root permissions have been granted.

I am not sure of the steps for your variant. You will try to do through of adb/console. Find on Internet how to obtain root permission from adb/console for your model.

Viper4Android working on our device? 7.1.1?

Hey guys,
I want some help... Can someone tell me if Viper4Android (sound mod) works on latest firmware 7.1.1? ofcourse it needs root but has anybody tried it? Does it work... I want to flash it on my device, is it safe to flash it or will i get any issues like driver bootloop etc... If someone has tried it and failed or someone is just using it please answer to my query... Thank u
I have tried it yesterday and couldnt get it to install drivers. I am on lineage os i think it is 7.1.2 so i installed dolby atmos mod instead which works well.
@mhp1995 ,this zip include v4a with selinux fixes, which means you will get v4a working on enforcing selinux. You have to be rooted (I'm with magisk) and it is working flawlessly alongside arise sound mod. However, this is older version of v4a, because no one have enabled selinux support for new version yet (except using SuperSU or magisk module, but it isn't working on 7.1.1)
This might help:
Download the file from here https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=745425885120731031
Flash it
Then from system app remover delete both apps of XtremeMusic do not delete the v4a of course and then check if it works it should as you can see in the screenshot

Viper4android only work con superSU so might take that as step one.
If youre on magisk uninstall it and then flash supersu zip
Then flash the zip file from the link
Should work then.
