Which SuperSU to load for 6.01 Dec 2016 Image - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I had 6.01 Oct 2016 security image installed with SuperSU working great. I forgot which version I had when I flashed the images for the Dec 2016 security update.
Now I can't figure out which SuperSU to use. I tried the latest beta and the latest stable and my Nexus 5 would just bootloop for half an hour and nothing else. I know when you install it it should reboot a couple times, but bootlooping for 30 minutes isn't normal.
Anyone know which SuperSU version I should use?

2.78 SR5 (the latest beta) works fine for me.

Something weird with Root.

Hello.
I have a Pixel with stock Android that was rooted with Chainfire SuperSU 2.78SR3
Last night I've noticed that the phone isn't rooted anymore and has installed the Feb security update OTA. (I only had the Nov update installed).
I've tried rerooting using the same method (Fastboot boot) and got stuck in a bootloop.
I had to flash a clean stock rom to get it out of the bootloop.
Next I installed TWRP. That worked.
Next I tried installing a ZIP version of SuperSU 2.78SR4. The Zip installs but when I boot into Android SuperSU says that the phone isn't rooted.
Anyone had anything similar happen to them?

You might need to flash back to stock to fix this. If you do let us know so we can help you save your data and apps.
You used the wrong SU. You need 2.79 SR3. Note the 9 on there, you used 2.78.

Copy it to your phone and boot to TWRP. Then INSTALL it from TWRP.

"a little too much pie?"

So I experienced a "little" trouble after the Pie update, when trying too root my phone again.
Which one of you Oneplus 6-ers with rooted and "normal" phones also had problems after the Pie update?
And which one of you had the perfect update?
Perfect update here.
Coming from 5.1.5 straight to 9.0
Flashed bluspark.zip while still on 5.1.5, reboot to twrp, flashed Android Pie + twrp.zip + magisk 17.2, reboot twrp flash Android Pie + twrp.zip + magisk.zip again in second slot, reboot system.
Worked without any issues
From 5.11 to 9.0 with no issues. Updated to blue spark TWRP. Flashed full ota. Flashed TWRP again and Magisk 17.2. rebooted to TWRP, flashed TWRP and Magisk again and all was perfect. After first reboot I flashed EX Kernel 3.01 for pie and no Hicks and same insanely good battery life. No rogue apps (68 apps) at all.
Perfect here.
Updated dirty flash from twrp from 5.1.8 - 5.1.9 - beta 1 - beta 2 - beta 3 - stable pie - beta 4 never had an issue beside the device is corrupted message, i just ignored that one.

[SOLVED] Can't update to Magisk 18 on Android P

I tried to flash to magisk 19, 18, and 17 without success. I sideloaded and installed the newest april 19 security update OTA, I also grabbed the boot.img from there.
I tried using magisk manager to patch the image, I've tried using TWRP to install it to boot, as well as flashing with the zip... But both methods yields the same outcome, I get an infinite load (or boot loop ig?) and it won't work.
I flashed back to the original boot.img and phone works again. I also installed magisk 16.7 (by sideloading the zip) and my phone is now rooted again. Please help me, how do I use a later version of magisk (preferably the latest stable one)?

Try flashing the magisk uninstaller prior to flashing magisk.

updated OP with nov images
one report of nov 2019 update breaking google pay
The boot images are very helpful. Thanks!
I initially used the one patched for Magisk and was able to get root on the Nov release. Than I tried to install EdXposed Yahfa version (after installing Riru 19.5) and I got stuck in during boot at the "G logo" screen.
I was able to get back to a non-rooted system by reflashing the unpatched boot.img file. Now I need to figure out how to disable the Edxposed modules while staying on the November patch. The instructions for disabling Magisk modules seem written for a release earlier than Nov or they assume you have TWRP.
Any quick pointer on how to disable my Magisk modules on the November release?
if you can push the magisk uninstall zip to your device, then fastboot booting into twrp then flashing the magisk uninstall zip that should do the trick.

See this, https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-3/themes/magisk-modules-disabler-booting-magisk-t3967433. Twrp isn't going to work on 10.

Thanks for the pointer. I wasn't sure if that Disabler would work with the November image.
I ended up reflashing the factory default and than reapplying the correct files. I now have GravityBox running on the Nov Image!
Up and running with OP's patched image and November "dirty" flash. Don't use G-pay so no report on that.
Edit - patched IMG after first boot shows magisk 19.5 installed, not 20.2 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

OP updated to show 19.5.
Had the same issue and ran into the problem getting the modules disabled. Glad you were able to get it up and running.

i think doing a full uninstall of magisk (removes modules and settings) might be best until twrp or something else comes along...
Thanks for the patched image @dipstik. Gonna wait for Dec's iteration

Which version of Magisk did you use to patch the boot image? I tried using stable and canary to patch the stock boot image when I updated earlier, but each time it would just reboot straight to bootloader.
i patched with 20.2-72edbfc4 .
this thread might help. i havent updated yet. https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-3-xl/help/december-update-rootable-t4013605

I've been following that thread and there doesn't really seem to be a definitive solution yet. What works for one person doesn't seem to work for anyone else (including me). I'll just live without root for the first time in about 9 years until the problem is figured out...

I read through this thread and the other thread you referenced, Has anyone tried topjohnwu's method: https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/blob/master/docs/tutorials.md ? I used with the November update and had no issues. It doesn't involve flashing patched image.
Is root working for anyone else on the Dec update? I just flashed it and Magisk detects that it's installed (20.2 so I'm guessing it's Canary as the latest stable/beta is 20.1) but no root apps work at all.

It is working for many and not for others. My wife's P3 rooted fine with canary.

I used this method and it worked with no issues. It was only the second time i used this method but with others having issues with the factory image and patched boot image i thought I'd give it a try.

Flash an earlier version of the recovery (twrp) and sometimes it will reboot upto 3 times, so be patient .

hmmm. You did boot straight into twrp after installing it and wiped (factory reset) inside twrp and it will ask you to type in "yes" then slide across, then reboot back into twrp after a restart (holding the power up key) and all that.
then go to rebboot system..it should be working.
I would love to help, but im going back from 10 to 9 in about half hour.
cu tomorrow and the best faith and love my friend
