I got my Nexus 5 and was using it with Android Device Manager perfectly on T-Mobile. I used WugFresh's v1.7.6 toolkit to root the device, and now Android Device Manager cannot locate, ring, lock, or communicate with the device in any way.
From what I can tell, Google does not provide any method to disassociate and re-associate a device (which is insane), and my Google Play services app is the latest, trouble-free version (4.0.33). Regardless, I ran the common released earlier this month, and still no joy.
Is anyone successfully using Android Device Manager with a rooted Nexus 5?
I am rooted and Android Device Manager is still working for me. You probably have checked this, but are you sure you have given the Device Manager the proper Device Administrator permissions in the security settings of your device?

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I verified the Device Administrator permissions as well.

i just rooted my backflip i have the superuser app. but when i try to install a app from a web .. doesnt let me.. can someone help me,,, thank you...
Ok so you rooted it, but did you install a new rom? because i believe until then, your phone is essentially the same as it was before you rooted it, on the line of thought I'd probably suggest either the unofficial cyanogenmod 6.1.2 from [modmymobile.com/forums/566-motorola-backflip-roms/561709-rom-unofficial-cyanogenmod-v6-1-2-froyo-2-2-1-a.html], or the preclair if you don't want to move to 2.2 [modmymobile.com/forums/566-motorola-backflip-roms/556727-rom-preclair-v1-6-jit-netfilter-swap-ext3-ext4-tun-2-12-11-a.html] remember though that the backflip is receiving no official support so this is the best for now.. but anyway, getting web apps to download: after you've installed one of these roms, go to settings>applications>then check the Unknown Sources box, then you can sideload non-market apps
Non-market app options are based on carrier, not root access. Follow the last post's instructions on how to get there in the settings. If that fails you need a custom rom, or if you want to keep a stock rom you can sideload without root. You can search the net for Android sideload apps or use the actual Android SDK. In either of those methods you'll need USB debugging enabled in your phone's app settings.

​What is Rooting?
Rooting enables all the user-installed applications to run privileged commands that are typically unavailable to the devices in their stock configuration. Rooting is required for more advanced and potentially dangerous operations including modifying or deleting system files, removing carrier- or manufacturer-installed applications, and low-level access to the hardware itself (rebooting, controlling status lights, or recalibrating touch inputs.) A typical rooting installation also installs the Superuser application, which supervises applications that are granted root or superuser rights. A secondary operation, unlocking the device's bootloader verification, is required to remove or replace the installed operating system. In contrast to iOS jailbreaking, rooting is not needed to run applications distributed outside of the Google Play Store, sometimes referred to as "sideloading". The Android OS supports this feature natively in two ways: through the "Unknown sources" option in the Settings menu and through the Android Debug Bridge. However some carriers, like AT&T, prevent the installation of applications not on the Store in firmware, although several devices (including the Samsung Infuse 4G) are not subject to this rule, and AT&T has since lifted the restriction on several older devices. As of 2012 the Amazon Kindle Fire defaults to the Amazon Appstore instead of Google Play, though like most other Android devices, Kindle Fire allows sideloading of applications from unknown sources, and the "easy installer" application on the Amazon Appstore makes this easy. Other vendors of Android devices may lock to other sources in the future. Access to alternate apps may require rooting but rooting is not always necessary. Rooting an Android phone allows one to modify or delete the system files which in turn can allow them to perform various tweaks, and use apps which require root access.

Bro...plz give me this Ministro II
for sumsung gt i9001
i'm not allowed to post directly into Android Development..
I installed Root with the help of jcase .
All seems to work properly (Adaway, Busibox, Total Commander etc. are functional with Root)
but Secure Settings shows at System+ : Root acces was not detected.
Is there a workaround or is that an limitation of this 'Systemless' Root method?
Thanks for reading this
I have the same issue. L Patcher also didn't but when I selected option to force root options it worked fine. Found there was Google Group to opt in for Secure Settings beta which I signed up for but never received an update so assume there's no current beta. Wrote dev email with details, but haven't heard back yet. I suggest you write him too (email in app) so that he can see many are being affected
I found the reason, why some apps doesn't recognize systemless root. Chainfire wrote that some app expected to have direct access to System-Partition and that must fail certainly
For these Apps we have to wait for updates

I do have the same problem here any news?
Hi All,
Need help of this forum in solving a problem. The problem is in two parts.
1. I need to gain root access on my 7.1.1 on Merlin.
So can i use adb to gain root access ? Learnt something like this from giving elevated access to Greenify for doze. Can someone point to the right direction so that i can learn it to do myself and not depend on third party apps.
2. I have given administrator usages to Airwatch Agent which monitors whether i have root or not. If i gain root access then i lose the service and wont be able to view configured mails. So basically i need to root and not let all the apps know i have root. Somehow hide it.
Please guide. Thanks in advance.

Well, basically you are not going to get around AirWatch knowing you are rooted, even with Magisk if their Air Watch server is relatively current... I have tried and tried this (we sell and administer Airwatch for ourselves and lots of customers). Airwatch has been specifically designed to detect King*Root, SuperSU, and Magisk (and it's iPhone equivalents), and it uses far more advanced detection schemes than just SafetyNet, so far it hasn't been bypassed that we have seen on Android 6 and higher devices... (Android 5.1 and older have a different mechanism for bypassing root detection from Airwatch that apparently isn't possible with Marshmallow and higher). Also be aware that Airwatch will flag any device on a custom ROM of any kind too (rooted or not) as an incompatible device.
I don't think there is sufficient need for a detection bypass to be implemented into Magisk for Airwatch, and I am not sure the developers would even consider it, since it would be more about getting around a corporate security policy you agreed too more than just getting around some stupid restrictions from the Play Store or an app developer, but hey, it's worth a shot to ask I guess.
Getting around most apps knowing you have root is pretty simple with Magisk, but Airwatch and some of it's competitors MDM applications are much tougher to deal with.
To be honest you are better to just let Greenify go or to get a separate cheapo device just for your corporate email and keep root on your personal device.
Thats insightful.
Thanks a lot for the comments. I however have not seen Airwatch revoking my device enrollment even when i am running a custom ROM. It just checks whether i have root or not.
And can you guide how to use Magisk to root my Nougat on merlin.

Download Magisk and flash it... If your running a custom ROM with SuperSU or some other root built in, might want to ask in your ROM thread to see the right process.
Odd a custom ROM doesn't do anything weird... We have tried several ROM's on our Nexus device and every one will not allow device enrollment.
Confused

I flashed magisk. It rooted my device. Could use greenify with root and lucky patcher with root too. Which means i have got root access. Now comes Airwatch Agent. It asked for root access And i denied it. So now my device is not unenrolled and i am able to use configured mails successfully. Happy. But confused.

So latest Magisk is not seen by AirWatch... Nice. I'll have to play with it again.
But there's a new problem now.

I lost the root. Dont know why. I actually tried installing supersu from playstore which asked something like- do you want to copy binaries to somwhere and i said yes. To that effect my device was unenrolled by Airwatch Agent. Then i removed supersu and i was able to enrol my device again. But the next morning i am noy rooted anymore. Lucky patcher says root is not stable. Don't know what to do.

You can't mix SuperSU and Magisk... after you flash Magisk you need to install Magisk Manager, but it isn't in the Play Store.
And BTW, don't mention Lucky Patcher here... that is purely a pirating app and users of it are thieves.
I will not assist you with anything to do with that software.

I am sorry if i offended the community. I installed it as a means to achieve background play of YouTube as till Marshmallow, this was beautifully done by xposed mods. But as for Nougat as xposed is still in development, i needed that app.
I was not aware of other uses of that app. Nor do i have any further intention. Actually i tried using OG Youtube and the other app which was needed but that provided for popup only. Hope you understand.

Not really... Background playback on YouTube is a paid service, no matter how you bypass that it's stealing.
Trust me, I don't like it either but I'm not going to steal the service

Got the message. I found it difficult to draw the line though.
I've been trying to activate device administrator for the app AC display but it doesn't work. I have 2 major questions 1 are rooted devices compatible with device administrators and are device administration compatible with magisk. I tried uninstalling the app rebooting and enabling magisk hide.
I am quite sure that Root has no influence at the device administrator settings. Maybe try out another app using device administrator rights, for example applock. Maybe it is a problem of your current ROM?
About Magisk I don't know.
I moved it to internal storage and that fixed it ?
