[Q] Stock NP rooting issues using Chainfire's SuperSU root topic


I just cut the cord as far as cable goes and though I have my PS4, Wii U, PS3, Roku XD, etc. I am looking for a better streaming solution that I can still hack at, etc. I love Android and came across this video on YouTube. It inspired me to look at the NP, so I bought one last night.

I'm no stranger with unlocking bootloaders and rooting devices. So I downloaded Root-Nexus-Player-fugu.zip from CF's website. I was able to quickly unlock the bootloader and using Fastboot, get CF-Root down to the device...or was I...?

After fastboot loads root.img and reboots the player, SU does not show up on my device, even after installing the sideload app. During the boot process, the NP does throw up the "optimizing apps" window that you see after an OS or ROM update which suggests that something happened....

Interestingly enough though, I can download SuperSU to my device through the Play Store from my desktop. However, when I run SuperSU installed in this manner, it says that there is no root (or something to that effect) and suggests rebooting and trying again. When I did this a second time, the NP seemed to get stuck in an infinite boot. I watched those balls fly around on the screen for 45m because I know that sometimes the boot process can take some time for the first time after the first boot. :(

Not sure how pertinent it is since fastboot can see the NP despite this, but I've gone in each time and enabled USB debugging, disabled USB app checking, allowed (in security prefs) non-store app installs, etc.

At the point where I thought the install was hosed (the infinite boot mentioned above) I did a hardware reset from the bootloader, then downloaded the factory image (lmy47v) and reinstalled it. Once everything was back up I tried it again and still nothing...am I missing something, is anyone else having issues like this?

  1. Payday loans are not appropriate for longer-term borrowing and are not a option if you are in financial troubles, either.
