Root active on qe1 nougat - Samsung Galaxy S7 Active Questions & Answers

Evidentially root has been done by what seems to be a few different attempts with root.bat scripts after eng.boot flash which I did successfuly... I followed a threads that linked me to a few more with multiple SuperSU 2.79 and 2.82 root.bat scripts haven't been able to get the to inject SuperSU .
What's everyone using to get root on nougat qe1 can any one give me the proper guide .
I extract the SuperSU script and ran The root.bat from fastboot folder it installed SuperSU app but when it opens it says update binary .

it may still say update on SuperSu app, as ones older than 2.82, maybe even 2.82 is older now, but rooting still works even when it says it needs an update..
its because its modified to work with our qualcomm devices, so not the same as the one on playstore, thus it thinks it needs updating ...
but doesnt stop it being rooted , althou people are having problems on the new update qf1 now

That don't answer my question how do I root it what is the proper root.bat file and where is it located online ?
I have root required apps installed and none can find supersu rights. It isn't injecting correctly its the wrong script .
The app shows up on the phone but when I try an app that needs root it don't find it and I can't install busybox cause that requires root too..
All I wanna know is what is the correct root file that people are using to successfully root 7.0 I've already unlocked bootloader.

[SS][DS][SHARE][FLASHABLE]Full Root (Remount-Reboot fix) by [NUT]

If you root your Xperia phone using Framaroot(Gandalf Exploit), and edit /system files, a random reboot occurs. We have to fix this by Remount-Reboot fix which was originally created by [NUT]. ADB version of this tool has already been shared here and here .
But it requires the use of PC to fully root your phone. I found a flashable version of the same tool and wanted to share with you guys
Download
http://nut.xperia-files.com/?dlid=cmVtb3VudHJlYm9vdGZpeA==
Instructions
1)Download framaroot apk
2)Open the app, select Gandalf exploit ("Install SuperSU" should be selected in the dropdown menu)
3)Keep trying until you get Success notification It will notify you to reboot your device
4)Reboot. SuperSU should be visible in your app drawer. If not, repeat the steps 1-4
5)If busybox is installed, fine and good. Or else the tool will install for you
6)Reboot into recovery and flash the zip file
7)Your phone is now fully rooted
You can test whether your phone is fully rooted by modifying any system app(Like you can rename a bloat app in /system/app) and the phone shouldn't reboot. If it reboots, then your phone isn't fully rooted.
Note: As soon as you have installed this rootfixer and you saw it replace the already installed busybox, remove any and all busybox installer apps you have, it will probably break the rootfixer if you update busybox using that app. The version this rootfixer installs is rock solid and is used by most if not every kernel dev working on Xperia line kernels.

Will this work with Flash Gordon?
This message was brought to you from my Sony Xperia M C1905 using Tapatalk.
Number 6 - reboot into recovery and flash zip
Yeah if you have an unlocked bootloader and elixer kernel which is the only way to have recovery on this phone so far.
Alternatively flash Gordon should work but technically needs full root to flash it via that app

Yes, you will have to have CWM to flash this obviously. The main aim to create this thread is to enable the users to get full root when you dont have PC with you.
Currently, there are two kernels - ELixir and the 'stock kernel with cwm by alvinhochun'. You can create a flashable version of these kernels and use them, So you dont have to depend on PC to get full root.
The reason why it reboots if you edit system files its because the phone is half rooted if you use Framaroot(Gandalf Exploit) you have to full root it and if you full root it you don't need to flash this
OP dont get me wrong but for now cwm is for only UBL....
in UBL reboot fix is not needed...UBL can mount systems...and can edit them without any issue
in locked BL u cant flash anything...so y did u created this/?
and framaroot wont work on dual sim..

Have you followed the rooting procedure fully? In the forum it tells you how to properly root your phone. With the su binary not being found it seems like when you used framaroot it didn't install the binary (due to the half root it does). You need to keep using framaroot until SuperSU is installed and once it is you then need to use BusyBox pro to install the latest version of BusyBox (this may make the phone reboot, you have to keep going until it does get installed). Then you need to use the root fixer. But go and follow the proper root procedure, it explains it better. You should find it in the general forum.

Hi gamer649, thank's for your reply.
i just reinstall my superSU using framaroot, and the rootfixer finish its job flawlessly.
May I ask, is it possible to upgrade to this firmware then root? Or is it only possible with rootfixer?

[ROOT][LP][UB/LB] 1 Click Root for Xperia ZL Lollipop Locked/Unlocked Bootloader

Hi, i have an Xperia ZL with Locked Bootloader and i tested it and it worked, no need to flash anything, just go in your mobile browser to https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B28tGmPEAKnOeGhkemVTZlAtMk0/view?usp=sharing, download and install the apk and run it, it will do allt he work for you, i have experienced some reboots but some minutes after my phone goes completly stable, it will install a task killer called kingmaster and the root manager called kinguser, you can uninstall kingroot and kingmaster and just need to keep kiguser, super user and super su doesn´t work but with kinguser installed i have completly root acces
UPDATE: In my first post i posted the direct link to download kingroot from its website, but it was downloading different versions and not all of them are working fine, so i uploaded the correcto version to my google drive, it works perfectly, the version 4.0 is in chinese and doesnt work, but version 4.1 is in english and works fine
Can anybody else comment on this ? I've read shady details about kingroot from other threads but some of it may not be up to date.
I think this method doesn't really works, Titanium backup don't get root access by example...
You can indeed get root using this method, but will need to change it to SuperSU before attempting to use Titanium Backup.
I don't recommend it
can I unroot the phone afterward for warranty service?
Why you dont recomed it Oliver?
Dandy, i have been using titanium backup perfectly with this root method, just open king user, revoque the root acces to titanium and open titanium again, it will prompt you for root acces and then it works perfectly
Dlslith, there is no need to change to supersu or super user, i think this cannot be done
Atisho, i dont know a method to unroot Xperia zl on android lollipop, but im interested too, i will be searching and trying

Yes, the Kingroot method does work (you need to have internet access). I have used it to root my Z1, but it is generally considered a "Risky" way to root.
If you need it done fast, it will work. Most people recommend taking the longer process of downgrading to an earlier version, using a root tool that installs SuperSU or Superuser, then installing a recover, and finally installing a pre-rooted version of the ROM you want / need.
The reason that king is considered risky is that part of the root process requires you to have web access and the app sends the phone IMEI number to some unknown IP address in china.
Is that all that Kingroot sends? unknown
What can / do they do with the IMEI? unknown
What else does king user do if the root is sending your IMEI number to china? unknow
Use at own risk. I really was having trouble with my Z1 after I tried to install a rom but it was corrupted and I lost the recovery and root.
I used Kingroot to get root access, then used the root to install a recover, then did a clean install of the full ROM I wanted.

Does anyone know which exploit kingroot is using to get root access?
Hi,
I tried to root on Lollipop using Kingroot, It installed root, then I tried to switch the Root Manager App to SuperSU, In doing this I uninstaled KingRoot, KingUser and all other apps and tried to update binaries with SuperSU which obviously failed.
Now the problem is such that - KingUser is installed as a system app and also the su binaries are loaded. When i type su command from the Terminal i get the following error:
[-] connect ui: timer expired.
Unable to root with any known technique
I have also tried to do a system reset but kinguser still persisted.
Is there any way to wipe /system clear and flash a ftf to start from a clean slate and try rooting again.

Permanent root without TWRP? (MM)

Hi,
Can anyone help me to get permanent root without installing custom recovery like TWRP? I tried KingRoot but after restart root disappeared. Also, I tried to install latest beta SuperSU but it failed and can't update binaries. Thanks a lot.

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).

Has anyone rooted using Kingroot?

I've seen posts instructing how to root via SuperSu and Magisk; I know those methods have to be done a certain way because of the partition system. But I have not seen any posts about Kingroot. Would it work the successfully? I imagine it going like this:
1) root with Kingroot
2) boot to TWRP via ADB
3) flash TWRP
4) flash SuperSU if desired
Or
4) if desired, flash a kernel, flash Magisk, flash TWRP again
5) boot to system, uninstall Kingroot
Does that sound right? Would Kingroot even work to begin with?

Why use kingroot? Remove the first step and you basically have hot to flash su..

True, but if you happen to want to root while away from a computer it could be useful.
In any case, it was simply a curiosity about whether it would even work at all. I doubt I'd ever use Kingroot for my Pixel.

Oh okay. I was just curious. I haven't tried kingroot but since rooting requires patching the boot.img and I don't know if you can do that while booted into the OS I'd say no. I am only assuming how kingroot works but again whatever the solution it needs to be able to make changes to the boot.img without already having root privs.
The closest solution I would see is having twrp already loaded.

Even if it did work it wouldn't work the way you are describing. King Root basically acts like malware and refuses to give root privileges to any app that interferes with its functioning. Adaway won't work with King Root because adware is part of the King Root program. You also wouldn't be able to install SU while King Root is on your phone. King Root will actively prevent you from installing any other root program. People used to be able to do what you describe but King Root was updated to prevent you from installing SU.
