[Resolved] [Q] root in rom, no root in twrp

Hi
On stock rom (ascend y300) I installed the app simple root checker from the play store, says I have root. But in twrp when I try to flash cyanogenmod I get this error:
set_perm: some changes failed
E:Error executing updater binary in zip '/sdcard (truncated)
Error flashing zip '/sdcard/cm-10.2.......

Is there a way to grant full permissions to twrp?

Does your TWRP has SELinux Enabled? Since TWRP has a Disabled and a Enabled version.

When opening terminal in TWRP (v2.6.3.3) I get "Full SELinux support is present", but I have no idea how to check its status, or change it?

The solution for me was to install CWM instead of TWRP, in which I found that the "system" and data folders were not mounted. I did, and after that I flashed my rom successfully. I didn't make any changes to SELinux settings.

[Q] Systemless SuperSU failed everytime (Binaries need to be updated)

Hello,
I have a problem and I will try to explain that precisely.
(I'm on Galaxy S6 G920F Stock Firmware)
I have tried to flash SuperSU in Systemless mode and I have followed this tutorial : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=69412347&postcount=1215&branch_used=true
1st try :
Wiped all partitions and Flash Stock Firmware
Flash TWRP
SN Green response
Push Ramdisk and .supersu patch with ADB
In TWRP : Terminal : echo "SYSTEMLESS=true" > /data/.supersu
Flashed SuperSU SR2
Succeed with no error
And then... "Binaries need to be updated" in SuperSU app (even with reboot) and Root not working.
Then, I have tried with SR1 and SR3, not working too.
2nd try :
I have re-flashed the stock firmware (and wipe all partitions)
And tried again the same steps BUT NOW with Arter Kernel.
Not working too with SR1, SR2 and SR3.
I have missed something?
Thanks in advance!

Did you wipe data after install the SuperSU zip?

I have a fresh install of the firmware, before installing the rom I have wipe data / system and all other
So no data left from my other rom

Yeah, look at the first post, I updated it

I've had this same problem too. Here's what I did to resolve the problem
Code:
1. Clear all PHH SuperUser app data
2. Uninstall PHH SuperUser
3. Flash the latest version (r266 ATM)[URL="http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/magisk-phh-s-superuser-android-pay-t3435921"]HERE[/URL] phh super user binaries
4. Reboot and re-install PHH Superuser from market
5. Haven't had the issue since.
One thing I did notice was as long as you didn't need to request /new/ admin rights, things would still work. It was when you needed to grant a new app root access.

Magisk v16.0 Root - Lenovo P2, safety net pass (S233 and S244)

*UPDATED TO WORK WITH S244
*I can confirm this is working with the latest version of Magisk (v16.0)
you may not need to execute the script so install the SafetyNetFix first and test.
Hope all goes well, instructions below:
Install TWRP
Follow instructions on this Forum, easy to find.
Convert System from f2fs to ext4
System-less SU does not work on f2fs so you will need to reformat System to ext4,
In TWRP go to:
Wipe > Advanced Wipe.
Check System and Click 'Repair or Change File System' > Change File System > Select EXT4
You'll need to reinstall your firmware after you have formatted. (P2a42_S233/S244 Supports System in ext4 by default)
I would go for a clean install but you could try without wiping.
Run UnSU
Download UnSu here
Run UnSU in Recovery, this may mean you can miss the next step, try with or without (flashing boot image)
Flash original boot.img
This is only if you have tried rooting before (and System is already set to ext4) but failed safety checks, skip if not
Can be found on this forum in the Deodexed_P2a42_S233_170404_ROW.zip or Deodexed_P2a42_S244_170725_ROW.zip
(as long as you are on this firmware of course.)
Download Magisk v16.0
Click here to download latest Magisk
Install using TWRP, this will also install MagiskSU
Reboot, download and install MagiskManager.apk
Turn on Magisk Hide, Systemless Hosts
Hide Google Services Framework and Google Play Store
(I don't think this is necessary but no harm in doing so)
Download Kernel Adiutor from PlayStore
Could also run this in Terminal Emulator but with Kernel Adiutor the script is saved to run again if necessary
Click top left Menu, scroll down to: init.d (don't swipe to activate) Click + for new script and paste:
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
echo "deleting magisk properties"
resetprop --delete init.svc.magisk_pfs
resetprop --delete init.svc.magisk_pfsd
resetprop --delete init.svc.magisk_service
resetprop --delete persist.magisk.hide
resetprop --delete ro.magisk.disable
resetprop --delete magisk.version
resetprop --delete persist.magisk.busybox
resetprop --delete persist.magisk.hide
Save then click and execute the script.
Install Safety net fix
(This may not be necessary, so reboot and check if you pass before installing this, if you do then no worries, you're good to go!)
Download and install the stable version from here
Install using Magisk Manager
Reboot phone and Open MagiskManager
Check that Safety Net Passes
Some apps may have detected your rooted phone prior to this and blacklisted your device ID
I recommend trying the app Device ID Changer
find here

I actually did not understand thid line -
You'll need to reinstall your firmware after you have formatted.
Why do i need to reinstall it after formation. After changing to ext4 cant i just boot the mobile. . And then root it with magisk. ? ??

If you format the system they'll be nothing there, hence why you'll have to reinstall firmware, or at the very least reinstall system. It will be blank after formatting.

What if i dont format the system. Then??? Just wipe cache. Internal sd n data.

Well, as Systemless Su relies on your system being formatted as ext4 you would need to format, unless your System is already ext4 then as I stated in instructions you can skip that step. If your system is f2fs then you will need to format it to ext4 thus clearing it which will mean you will have to reinstall system to the newly formatted ext4 partition. I believe you could flash the system.img just as you would have done with the boot.img

Finally got this to work. Completely passes safetynet. Note: Do not install update from the app, it will cause bootloop. Download version 13.3 separately and then flash it using twrp. I also used lenovo p2 sefetynet fix magisk module along with the script above.

I know someone on this forum made changes that allowed them to update directly through the Magisk Manager.
Anyway, I have given up on Magisk. Modules that fails to install causing the Manager to crash, incompatibility with previous modules, difficulties upgrading to newer versions, official versions becoming as unreliable as betas, Google being a pain in the ass with frequent SN updates etc.

Can the files needed for this to work be added to the first post? Just to be sure it's been done right

It makes it easier to run the script but feel free to use an alternate script executor if you wish.

test passed on RR 5.8.2 but with "universal safetynet fix" MODULE................

I tried to install Magisk again (stock rom) just for the fun of it. Turned out I didn't need the safetynet fix...

An easier guide: boot from twrp: backup all and safe it on your computer, convert only data partition to ext4(not the system partition!), reboot recovery and install magisk frop twrp: done!
Use magiskhide to hide root/bootloader.
If I rethink: is it really needed to convert data partition to ext4?

I know you had to do it in the past. It's possible it isn't required any longer.

For magisk you still need to convert /data to ext

Will formatting from f2fs to ext4 result in lower performance of the internal partition?

Download the latest Firmware, open the update.zip and replace the boot.img and flash it via USB or SD-Card and Show If it booting
When it's finaly booted, Install Magisk Manager and show if you has Root Access!

1-Download adbkit
2-Connect device to wifi and PC to same wifi
3- copy your boot.img to internal memory
4- write the command
adb shell busybox dd if=/sdcard/boot.img of=/dev/block/by-name/boot

I have tried this one but no success. Fails package validation. I guess it has to do with how the update.zip should be repacked. I just use 7zip in replacing the boot.img.

at this time magisk does not correctly do the patch in the rockchip boot.img so it's more accurate not to boot

A little question about updating with root.

im using this guide
at section 4.
and i cant understand something.
i have Edxposed module, i need to delete it also or just call recording and themes modules should be removed?
please help me, thank you.
and one more thing, the app of magisk was changed, how do i get this line? :
Step 4: Click the back button in the top left, followed by the hamburger menu in the top left as well (3 horizontal lines). Click Magisk and then click the top Install button, followed by Install again, then Install to Inactive Slot. You may now click Reboot.

My way to update with root + twrp:
disable magisk modules
reboot in twrp
install full ota
install twrp
reboot twrp
install magisk
wipe dalvik cache
reboot system
enable magisk modules
provit!

When you say to install twrp. What do you mean? Which file should i install when im already in twrp?

For example the latest twrp.zip. (twrp-3.4.0-0-guacamole-unified-installer.zip)
The boot.img is overwritten during the update. Therefore it is necessary to install twrp again. Then restart directly into the twrp. Now install magist ... As I wrote it before.
Very simple and reliable method. I've only had good experiences with it.

my phone is stuck on the red circle with the 2 white circle.
what can i do?
i did it:
Step 1: If you have any themes installed, such as Renovate ICE, Swift Themes, RoundyUI, or Substratum themes, remove them before continuing. Remove the Call Recording Enabler module if you have it. Restart if needed.
Step 2: Click on the system update notification. If it does not appear, open Settings, scroll to the bottom and click System, scroll to the bottom and click System updates. Click on the Install or Download and Install button and let it complete. Do NOT click Reboot.
Step 3: Open Magisk Manager and click the hamburger menu in the top left (3 horizontal lines). Click Downloads and then click the search icon (magnifying glass) in the top right corner. Type "TWRP" and click enter. Click the download arrow beside the module named TWRP A/B Retention Script. Do NOT click Reboot.

Edxposed doesn't have to be uninstalled to update. If it happened anyway, install it when everything else is gone.
