02. Install CWM Recovery and Root Phone

sudo adb reboot bootloader

Then

sudo fastboot flash recovery recovery-clockwork-touch-6.0.4.4-hammerhead.img

Just left to remember: Install libmtp

sudo mtp-connect

Forget that and install mtpfs, fuck that install go-mtpfs-git because it is the only fucking thing that works

pacman -Sv mtpfs
yaourt go-mtpfs-git

You may have to remove reference to go.sh out of the PKGBUILD(I did at the time)

sudo go-mtpfs /media/temp

Copy UPDATE-SuperUS-v1.65.zip to a dir on the phone

cp UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.65.zip /your/dest/
sudo fusermount -u /media/temp
sudo adb reboot bootloader
  • Tab to recovery mode
  • Install Zip
  • Navigate and Select
  • When the installation is completed, go to '+++++Go Back' and reboot the phone by selecting reboot system now from Recovery menu
