Flashing CWM and Installing SuperSU to Root Yureka

After unlocking the bootloader, you need to follow the steps below to flash CWM Recovery which is a custom recovery with lots of additional options and then use it to install SuperSU which will provide us with root management.

1. Turn on the phone.
2. Connect to the PC again. Then download the latest SuperSU binaries and copy it to your device’s external or internal SD memory.
3. Disconnect the USB and shut down Yureka for one last time.
4. Press and hold the Volume Up key and then connect the USB cable to boot into fastboot mode.
5. Open the folder where you extracted Yureka root files and open the command window (step 6 of bootloader process).
6. Paste the following command in the command window and press Enter.

   fastboot -i 0x1ebf flash recovery Yureka-Recovery.img

   
7. Disconnect the USB cable and then press the Volume Up + Volume Down + Power Key together (till the phone vibrates) to boot into CWM recovery mode.
8. Use the volume keys to select install zip option and press power key to select it.
9. Select one of the following:
   1. choose zip from /sdcard – If you copied the SuperSU to internal SD; or
   2. choose zip from /storage/sdcard1 – If you copied SuperSU external SD card
10. Browse to the SuperSU.zip file and press the power key to flash it.
11. When done, choose reboot system now.

If everything is done correctly, you’d have root access in your Yureka. You will find SuperSU in your app tray and you can also confirm root access by installing an app that requires root permission or else using the Root Checker app available in Play Store. If the Play Store or SuperSU itself offers an update to the app, you are free to update it to the latest version.
