su reboot disemmcwp

su not found
Andrew Richardson
Pretty sure you need to do this from a computer with adb
Wyatt Evans
this
Easton Price
You need to be root to use reboot.
Dylan Watson
Yeah, use the computer
Michael Russell
Set your computer up to be able to read the adb and do it from there. Don't even attempt to do this within the phone.
Aaron Morgan
Attempting to use adb from my PC, but it doesn't seem like it's going to want to work.
Jack Mitchell
Switched on OEM unlock and that seems to have resolved it. Will carry on from here and see how it goes.
Bentley Peterson
Is debug mode enabled on your phone? If not, do so. It's something like tapping the build number in About a bunch of times. Then reconnect. It should ask for trust on the phone. Authorize it, then reboot through adb.
Ayden Gray
Yeah, I had USB debugging turned on, just not OEM unlock. Using this guide currently.

KingoRoot is rooting it now. Hoping to install Android 6.0 on this ZTE Grand X 3 after I've done this, since I supposedly can. I've never messed with smartphones before, so I don't know the basics of really any of this and cobbling things together from various different guides.
Nolan Scott
Looks like it's stalled at 46%, does stalling often happen during rooting?
Jacob Cruz
Just stuck on "waiting for device." Hoping this doesn't brick the phone.
Brandon Garcia
Think KingoRoot was having issues with TinyWall. Trying again.

Now it's just stuck on the Cricket bootup screen after restarting. How fucked am i?
Bentley Gomez
Can't turn it off or anything. It's just frozen on the Cricket screen. Shit.
James Thomas
Maybe connect to adb then reboot recovery? Or you might have to flash a recovery from adb.
Brandon Johnson
what command would this be?
Joseph Lewis
Well this root definitely wasn't successful. Have a feeling I'm going to be exchanging this back in for a new one then just not bothering with this again. :/
Owen Price
reboot recovery
Carson Ward
Tried it, but nothing ever came up. No error or anything.
Aaron Wilson
Yeah, looks like this thing is done.
Noah Edwards
Managed to get some screen to come up and it let me reboot and now my phone's working normally. It's a miracle. Now I need to run that root checker to make sure it's actually rooted.
Jordan Thomas
WEW. what a thrill. Now time to install Android 6.0 next, following this guide.
Cooper Lewis
This shit's probably straight forward and boring on older/more popular model phones. Been fucking with this off and on throughout all of today though.
Jack Ross
thru bash:
apt-update
apt-get install su
xdddddddddddddddd

What's a good way to back up an Android phone?
