COMMONS FAQ (IMPORTANT INFO, PLEASE READ!)

  

Q: Why this tool? Why should i use this tool instead of other available method to get root for BlueStacks?
A: Well, this tool is a time saver! With this tool, you no longer have to spend minutes to hours DIY rooting or downloading hundreds MB of the pre-rooted images.

Q: How did you come up with this tool?
A: Well, let's just say i got a thought in my head since years ago, wondering "Why would you need another linux to root BS while you already have one that can do the same job? The BlueStacks itself!".

Q: How long it takes to get rooted with this tool?
A: The actual rooting process should take less than 2 minutes to complete, however on slower machine it could takes longer..

Q: I can see Root.fs being resized, and why 320 MB?
A: 320 MB for /system is more than enough for normal users, prior to BS ICS version it give ~167 MB free space! and for ICS you get ~48 MB..

Q: 320 MB for /system is not enough for me, i need to install lots of system apps!
A: Once unlocked, you can use tool like TopoResize to resize Root.fs

Q: I feel that my BS is running slower after rooted using this tool, can i undo or return to stock BS give me?
A: Yes, If you got rooted using this tool, you can use the newly added feature 'Restore Backup' in MultiTool to restore back to stock image.
A: Alternatively, you can also rename the backup file 'Root.fs.BAK' back to 'Root.fs', you can find the backup in one of following folder:

• %ProgramData%\BlueStacks\Android\ (Vista+)
• C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\BlueStacks\Android\ (XP)
• C:\Documents and Settings\{USER}\Application Data\BlueStacks\Android\ (XP)

Q: I would like to use SuperSU instead of the older Superuser, but the tool keep choosing the later one??!
A: The tool auto select the last 'UPDATE-Super*' zip found in the tool folder based on filename sorting.
A: Alternatively, once unlocked with this tool you can simply drag & drop to install your desire superuser app at any time.

Q: My SuperSU stops working properly after it got updated from Google Play Store??!!!
A: DO NOT update Superuser app directly, you are adviced to disable 'Auto Update Apps' feature under Google Play settings menu.
A: Some apps like SuperSU and Xposed cannot be updated using the usual way on BS, use my tool to update instead.

Q: I got an error 'BlueStacks is missing necessary files / features, what should i do?
A: First, make sure your BS is installed and running properly, second, check your security/antivirus software that might block access to file.

Q: I got an error 'Unable to communicate with BlueStacks', what should i do?
A: Certain firewall software such as Comodo, BitDefender will block local connection too, so you must add this tool to it's white-list.

Q: I got an error 'This SuperSU is not compatible with your system' -or- 'No su binary found'! what should i do?
A: Please try to use ChainsDD Superuser provided by this thread (Under downloads section).

Q: I got an error 'Could not complete rooting task #...', 'Timed out while...', what should i do?
A: 1) You are adviced to disconnect from internet temporary prior to running this tool. (Stops apps from (up|down)loading...)
A: 2) Try to remove or kill all unnecessary apps prior to running this tool. (Free some resources)

Q: The tool said rooting was successful, but non of the root apps is working! SuperSU shows 'No SU binary installed' error!
A: At the moment only ChainsDD Superuser has been found working with your APU. (UPDATE-Superuser-v3.2a.zip)

Q: After i ran 'Auto Debloater', my BS shows nothing except black screen, what should i do?
A: Please Install a custom launcher prior to debloating, otherwise you have no launcher when default one get disabled.
A: My personal recommendation is Holo Launcher HD, which seems to works well with BS.

Q: There is no gapps (Google Apps: PlayStore, G+, etc) in my BS after i got rooted with this tool? 
A: Please follow THIS instructions to install gapps on your BS.

TODO IN COMING UPDATES

  

• Add option to resize /system according to user input.CANCELLED
• Add option to update hosts file directly using drag & drop.DONE!
• Add 'ROM Customizer' function, something like binary-updater.
• Maybe this too - Multi-Users mode, if there is enough free time. (But i think BS team is going to release this feature anytime soon.)
