Guest LiNe171 Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 You need a fresh stock ROM, can't try other ways to root before the MobileGo, otherwise won't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ohyesman Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 I've not used any other methods, only thing I done was install the OTA update.Having no luck with this, going to try Kingroot before doing a complete reset... should of sorted this before installing and setting up all my bloody apps!!!

Guest ohyesman Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 Yer just about to do that - factory reset followed by installing fresh stock rom then OTA then try rooting, if that fails I will try stock with no ota to see what happens Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ohyesman Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 Well I can't seem to root at all - Restored stock rom each time and tried before and after OTA update and tried mobilego and kingroot and it fails all the time.Closest I've got is mobilego saying successful but Supersu fails to update binarys and app can't update either.Silly question - Just to be sure I am doing it correctly - to restore to complete stock and remove root/attempts to root etc I just need to factory set, boot to stock recovery - wipe data/factory reset > wipe Cache - install stock rom from update.Zip - data/factory reset > wipe Cache again and reboot??? Going to stick with stock rom and leave it as that for the time being. If/When a custom rom comes out I'll have another play. Saying that the Mrs's is thinking about get this phone to replace her Moto G as well so maybe I try that phone - it hers works we will swap phones lol.Going to stick with Stock out the box too, the OTA update is no longer available and I guess there is a reason for that so will refrain from installing that as well.

Guest LiNe171 Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 I just put my update.zip on sdcard, flash by offline way on phone definitions and wait until it flashs the update, then root. I don't wipe nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ohyesman Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 That method didn't work for me - well at least not for the OTA update.zip file from here - didn't even try the whole rom this way.Currently sorting out phone all over again from stock and staying stock.

Guest macbreakweeklyfan Posted August 18, 2015 Report Share Posted August 18, 2015 (edited) I rooted my freshly flashed stock SU6 when I posted this, on the 13th of August, and haven't had one single issue since. I tend not to futz about with my phone, firmware-wise, too much, once I find a simple setup that works (the graph curve of the novelty of hacking a new toy drops off SHARPLY after about a week, for me - far more attractive and rewarding things to be doing with my time) - I like to USE it more... because that's really the whole point of it, after all :) Edited August 18, 2015 by macbreakweeklyfan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ohyesman Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 You need to have stock recovery.Well seeing as I can't root I obviously haven't got custom recovery Completely stock phone and it won't root or install update.zip through the offline way on phone definitions. Puzzled really as its not exactly hard to flash back to stock and press one button to root. Gussing it fails for some not others due to some small hardware differences - maybe phones build it different factory or different batch with a different component somewhere!?

Guest Frankish Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 I wish I was nearby some of you who can't root so I could come and have a go myself. The software is all the same so don't see why it wouldn't work. Hardware wouldn't matter as the root method is a software exploit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LiNe171 Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 Don't bother so much with root, isn't important.. I just unrooted my device again and is way better now. Nothing to do with root until we got Custom Roms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest elperroderoke Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 Thanks¡Vodafone Smart Ultra 6 Vodafone SpainVDF-995NB01-ES02cIt Worked for me.Regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest elperroderoke Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 Did it again, but in a dirty way and worked too.I flash the stock rom again restore all app from Google Backup, so phone was "in use", and then try to root.After the reebot the phone stuck after vodafone logo for a long time and the process did not end so I had to disconect USB and force power of. Anyway the phone was rooted again.I thik the problem could be (in that case) that Supersu's newer version was already installed for Google's backup and was a problem when the program tried to install its Supersu version (newer was already there). But thas just a think, that really matters is tha phone is rooted again, so I can´t undertand why others are unable to do it.Regards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Zeus_Alex Posted September 2, 2015 Report Share Posted September 2, 2015 Ok, my turn to write some notes.yesterday, after 1 week of waiting for a new SU6, i got it. Went to the store, returned the old one, brought the new one.Got home, made the same thing as the other 2 and guess what?! No root can hold after a restart and most of the times i can't even get root.Tried Wondershare mobileGo, KingRoot, Kingo root and even framaroot. If, and thats a big IF, i can get root, it can only hold for a few minutes and nothing more.I don't understand. The hardware is the same, software the same algo, no diferences at all.As a note, i installed stock rom everytime before i tried to root to make it simple. The only thing i do is the OTA update and nothing more.I am doomed with this device Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Zeus_Alex Posted September 2, 2015 Report Share Posted September 2, 2015 Nope, not at all. Not even with King Root.Did it now with twrp recovery and supersu and its done. I can't make any OTA updates, but these updates are not very important, so it's ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
