Can u root the system.img for 32bit?

[Gaurav Bhakuni]

Can you supercompress it to small size and upload it please ??
Using very slow internet 512 Kbps

SuperSU will not update binaries on this image.

If you've left it as a .sfs then of course you can't update su binary (you can't mount a sfs as read-only).

If you have converted to an .img with unsquashfs or 7zip then that complaint is valid.

[Scott Q]

hypot... can you check over what you wrote... it's all a double negative

If you have converted to an .img with unsquashfs or 7zip then that complaint is valid. <-- this double negatives the first line. If you leave it as an SFS and can't mount it other than read-only then you cannot write to an SFS and if unpacked then you state the complaint above is valid....

Just going after root myself and trying to figure a few things out.

[Jordan Thompson]

You mean by not repacking and just moving over the root.img and renaming to system.img then yes. Going to try deleting and replacing.

[Ben Dobson]

the last update switched to system.sfs

why are you still using the system.img?

(is this a Windows/M$aft thing?)

[hypot...@gmail.com]

Sorry was posting from mobile; I meant (you can't mount a sfs as read-write).

Ben Dobson it's for this reason; being able to rw /system of course the usage is minimal; user dependant and takes up more space

[Jordan Thompson]

Lol I'm still confused. So extract it or leave it in the sfs for root?

[Ben Dobson]

Edited out the crap!

What I do is mount the upgraded iso and copy EVERYTHING to a folder (let's call it Live), so now 

take the system.sfs

 

to the folder where rootx.sh

 and use squahsfs-tools to run the commands as posted by XDAdev' Member  imadlatch (link to post on forum) 

4- " unsquashfs system.sfs"

5- use rootx.sh "sh rootx.sh"

6- move root.img to tmp folder rename to system.img then goto terminal

 

repack system.sfs

7- "mksquashfs tmp system.sfs" ('tmp' is your system.img) as shown at the top in this terminal command window!

Now system.sfs is finished with and rooted.

This replaces the stock system.sfs in the Live iso (REMEMBER THAT!!! up there ^ near the start of this post).

Mount the iso again and replace the system.sfs with your rooted one and INSTALL=1 that sucker

Then replace everything from the new install over the old along with renaming ,editing grub and all the rest of it without touching your old DATA.
