Hey guys, today I downloaded the updated Phoenix OS and decided to root it. I'm kindly sharing my image for anyone who would like to download it:
Instructions:
Install Phoenix OS v2.0.6 and do not restart your computer
Download the correct system rooted.7z file provided in the Download section and extract it
Go to C:\Phoenix OS (or wherever your Phoenix OS installation is) and replace the system.img file that's already there with the one you just downloaded
Reboot your computer now and boot into Phoenix OS. Complete the setup wizard
Install the latest version of SuperSU. Since Phoenix OS v2.0.6 comes with Play Store already, sign in with your Google account and update SuperSU that way. If you for some reason cannot use the Play Store, you can find SuperSU on the official thread. Download the flashable zip, extract Superuser.apk from the common folder, and install it in Phoenix OS by opening the .apk file with the default file manager that comes with the OS.
Update the binary by choosing Normal and your Phoenix OS should now be fully rooted

[Request][Root] Phoenix OS x86 v2.0.6
Hey first of all finally i found the way to root Phoenix OS but there is a problem i have x86 bit version of Phoenix OS so i was hoping you could help out so could you kindly provide a rooted Phoenix OS x86 bit system.img please or tell me the method to root it i would appreciate the help.
And by the way i have a question i have a 64-bit operating system but when i installed Phoenix OS it said it is recommended to install the x86 bit version so i installed the x86 bit version so should i use the 64 or 86 bit version ????
Well the x86 bit version works fine but some glitches can be seen and it gets stuck if i leave it inactive for some time.

Hey, I can work on getting the x86 version of the rooted image for you The method which I used could be found here.
Also, that suggestion sounds incorrect. What OS exactly are you running? Tell me more about your computer specs (CPU, Windows version, and especially how much RAM you have). If you have 4GB of RAM or more, I would go for the x64 version of Phoenix OS. Try it out and let us know if it works better for you, though there might not be much difference in performance. If I remember correctly, my Phoenix OS also causes my screen to go black after it's been sitting inactively for a while. I think it's a common issue with Phoenix OS.

The inactive black screen bug of Phoenix OS has to do something with the lock screen in android which auto locks screen if inactive for some time.
Thanks for the extensive info. It looks like your computer should be able to run the 64-bit version of Phoenix OS just fine. Why don't you give it a try? Also, I posted the x86 version of the rooted image if you still need it.

Good point, I will try to fix it. I'm assuming this issue can be eliminated by disabling the screen lock timeout timer.

You got it! Let me know if you need anything else :good:
Root is working fine, but the one app that won't install successfully for me is Google Plus. It claims my "device isn't compatible with this version" which is weird, given that it worked in previous versions of Phoenix OS. Any thoughts on this? Chinese localization or something maybe?
Edit: I can't even install it if I download it from APKMirror btw.

Hmm thanks for bringing it up. I haven't tried the app on Phoenix OS. Does it work on the original non-rooted version of Phoenix? Give it a try and let us know.
I've noticed that there are several apps that don't work for some reason. Some of the apps I use often give me an Error 501 when trying to install from anywhere. I've tried everything and still haven't gotten them to work. Hopefully more compatibility is coming soon.

Yea, it doesn't work in the non-rooted version either. Probably a build.prop issue with whatever the device is being identified as. I tried to modify it several ways, but couldn't get it working. It worked in previous versions, so I'm hoping they'll correct it soon. I'll report it in the official forums too.
Hi
After installing the PhoenixOS, the Windows Boot Manager(the blue screen one) did not appear when booting,it will boot into the windows 10 directly and I cant select to boot into the Phoenix OS.So I need to press the F12 button everytime i power on my laptop to choose whether i want to boot into windows or phoenix OS via the bios boot manager.Is there any solution to make my Phoenix detectable by Windows Boot Manager?

Chances are, Windows Boot Manager got moved up in the boot sequence. Using EasyUEFI, you can move the Phoenix OS entry back up so it starts booting:
Download and install EasyUEFI.
Open it, click OK, click Manage EFI Boot Option and post what you see here. This is your boot order. If Windows Boot Manager is above Phoenix OS, that means that Windows is being loaded using its default boot loader. What you're trying to do is use the Phoenix OS GRUB loader.
Click on Phoenix OS and click the green up arrow until the Phoenix OS entry is at the very top.
Restart the computer and see if it boots to the GRUB loader.
If it doesn't work, let's investigate what's inside your EFI partition.
First, open command prompt as admin (press start, type in cmd, press Ctrl+Shift+Enter, then press yes). Type in:
Code:
mountvol X: /s
Then type in:
Code:
cd X:\EFI\Boot
And then type in
Code:
dir
and press enter. It should list all the files in that boot directory. Post here on the forum what you see. You can use the command
Code:
dir >>C:\xda-efi-output.txt
to output to a text file and then it would make it easier for you to post it here. The file is located on the root of the C:\ drive. Open it and copy-paste what's inside on the forum, preferably inside code or hide tags to keep it neat. Assuming it's there, you can type in
Code:
grub.cfg
which will open the file with your default text editor. Feel free to post what's inside your grub file.

The solution is to add it yourself.
When in EasyUEFI:
1. click the add button.
2. From type list select Linux/Other.
3. Add a Description (this is what it will be called in the UEFI menu).
4. Select your efi partition (the FAT32 one with the light dot).
5. Click Browse
6. Select \EFI\PhoenixOS\bootx64.efi and click OK.
7. Click OK
8. Use arrows to reorder list to your needs.
And that text file you put up seems to be nothing to do with your EFI. It's a list of your windows directory.

Thank you so much to reply this. And again...after the phoenix os is added into the list and moved to the uppest side...I tried to restart my laptop but it still boots into windows without the system selection screen. After that I checked the list in EastUEFI and the phoenix os was missing again from the list :silly:

What kind of laptop do you have? It sounds like your bootloader is locker. Try going into BIOS and disabling "Secure Boot" or whatever is available from your motherboard. Also, since you couldn't find the Phoenix OS entry, maybe you should try reinstalling Phoenix OS.
Phoenix OS alongside with windows 10 & ubuntu. Total 3 OS=Windows + Ubuntu + Phoenix?
I need to install phoenix OS 7.1.1 in my pc.
It already has Windows 10 and Linux Ubuntu 17.04 in it.
Thru grub loader I'm able to choose whether Windows 10 or Ubuntu.
Now I need to install Phoenix OS too along with these two OSs. I tried installing it thru "PhoenixOSInstaller-v2.0.0-Alpha-60.exe" on my hard disk partition (tried NTFS & FAT32). But after installation, there is no boot entry for phoenix os in the GRUB menu.
I tried EasyBCD to add entry for this OS, but same ended in vein.
Note: When installed the same on my pen drive, it is working fine.
Requirement: Either I need to use my installed Phoenix OS by adding a boot entry or other possible to way to install & use.
Thanks

In Ubuntu, google how to install grub customizer. Once installed, you can add Phoenix to grubs boot options. I have Windows 10, Ubuntu 17.04, Phoenix OS and Remix all booting correctly from grub. Give me just a bit and once I'm to my laptop where the files are, I'll post the boot parameters for phoenix that you need to put in Grub customizer.
EDIT:Here is a screenshot of how to set it up, and I'll give a brief tutorial on using Grub Customizer to add Phoenix.
First in grub customizer, is to add entry. A window will pop up. Here is a screenshot of how it should look and be filled out. Part of the boot sequence is out of screen, so I'll paste the whole thing here.
search --set=root --file /efi/PhoenixOS/kernel
linux /efi/PhoenixOS/kernel quiet root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=android_x86 REMOUNT_RW=1 SRC=/PhoenixOS vga=788
initrd /efi/PhoenixOS/initrd.img
Click ok on that window. Next, hit the save button. Once is saves successfuly, hit File in upper left, and click write to mbr. Confirm and let it write. Once done, you should be able to reboot and find Phoenix OS in your grub. Should boot fine. Good Luck!
@rebel1699 hi brother i am configuring my laptop to different operating systems
i want to have 5 operating systems install on my laptop i have searched and looked for it all over the internet but couldn't find the exact method..
the os i need are
windows, following by ubuntu then phoenix and remix then mac os (which is optional)
tell me what order i have to follow and how to install all of them..
i want phoenix and remix to be installed on a separate partition not within ubuntu.. i have already install windows and ubuntu both are working great now when i install phoenix from the installer exe (via windows) it creates a boot file for windows and phoenix i just need the phoenix not windows because i will be booting all the os through grub even when i configure or add phoenix in grub (came with ubuntu) the phoenix os does show up in grub and boots as well but when i select phoenix os it opens another grub menu with windows and phoenix options i just want phoenix os to boot when i select it from main grub (ubuntu one)
please guide i have to ready it for monday

Hi, Brother @rebel1699, I copied your boot sequence and pasted in the Grub Customizer, but it didn't work
I'm a Newbie, but I think this boot sequence is for UEFI-GPT and that's why it didn't work
I'm trying to triple boot (Windows7,Ubuntu,PhoenixOS) in BIOS-MBR
What should be the boot sequence for Phoneix OS in BIOS-MBR?
Help me out,Please
NOTE: I'm doing a fresh install of all three operating systems, so I don't need any data on my HDD
Thank You!

Hi. I had the same problem, but maybe this will help you...
Hello,
I installed Phoenix OS today and I found this OS extremely beatifull and fast, but I can't shutdown it. When I press the power button on my PC, I have the power menu. But when I click on "shutdown", it shows "shutting down", but.. Nothing happens. The shutting down screen still on the screen and nothing happens after. To shutdown my PC, I must press the power button during 5 seconds, and I think this is killing my computer. So how can I fix this please ?
My computer : ASUS ROG GL552VW (8Gb of RAM and Phoenix OS installed on a second partition of the hard disk ).
I had a similar problem once, and the culprit was a background bash script that won't be killed after the shutdown was requested, something like it could not unmount a partition to shutdown cleanly...
i have similar problem. so how to fix this?
Try kernel parameters
I have tried adding kernel parameters as acpi_osi=! acpi_osi='android' into the grub.cfg of phoenix os grub config file and everything goes fine no demsg errors, intel graphics is fine and it can shutdown now.
Get idea from recently bumblebee bug on linux. Thinking it could be seen on Skylake Platform with ami bios software .

You can add the command while you boot: select the GRUB entry you want to use, then hit the "e" key (you must use a keyboard, for those using tables) and add the command anywhere in the line that has "kernel" on it, for instance (this is not the actual GRUB entry for PhoenixOS, it's just an example):
Code:
linux /kernel quiet [b]acpi_osi='android'[/b] root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=android_x86
To make it permanent, you must edit the grub.cfg file in a text editor that supports Linux line breaks, like Notepad++ on PC.

My computer : ASUS ROG GL552VW (8Gb of RAM and Phoenix OS installed on a second partition of the hard disk ).

I have tried adding kernel parameters as acpi_osi=! acpi_osi='android' into the grub.cfg of phoenix os grub config file and everything goes fine no demsg errors, intel graphics is fine and it can shutdown now.
Get idea from recently bumblebee bug on linux. Thinking it could be seen on Skylake Platform with ami bios software .

I edited grub.cfg and it still can't be turned off. I use Skylake with Ami Bios and my bios is Legacy mode.
Is this correct ?
set timeout=30
menuentry 'PhoenixOS Live - AndroidMode' --class PhoenixOS {
search --file --no-floppy --set=root /kernel
linux /kernel acpi_osi=! acpi_osi='android' root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.selinux=permissive buildvariant=userdebug quiet DATA=

Thanks this fixed my issue on my asus rog laptop
guys help please i can't do anything any help ?
Do you have try shutdown through terminal on phoenixos?
If on phoenix os try this
Alt+F1(alt+FN+F1) type 'halt' hit enter
If wants restart switch windows use this 'reboot' hit enter and other grub will be showing up
Solution->
1. Do Alt+F1 : This will bring up terminal window.
2. Write command--
reboot -p (This shutdowns pc/laptop)
Or
poweroff -f (This reboots the PC/laptop)
??

You can add the command while you boot: select the GRUB entry you want to use, then hit the "e" key (you must use a keyboard, for those using tables) and add the command anywhere in the line that has "kernel" on it, for instance (this is not the actual GRUB entry for PhoenixOS, it's just an example):
Code:
linux /kernel quiet [b]acpi_osi='android'[/b] root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=android_x86
To make it permanent, you must edit the grub.cfg file in a text editor that supports Linux line breaks, like Notepad++ on PC.

i cant find any line contain "kernel" word. please help
have anyone an idea of how to add next entry in grub of phoenix to load windows 10.
Install Phoenix OS on an ext4 partition. (Or any other fs type partition.)
Use a Linux distro to do this. I used Ubuntu. It can be installed on an MBR and on a UEFI computer. I installed it on a UEFI laptop first, later on an MBR laptop.
1) Download Phoenix OS iso for PC from http://www.phoenixos.com/en/download_x86
2) Unarchive it.
3) Unsquashfs the system.sfs file. Look in the resulting squashfs_root folder to find the system.img file there.
4) Use a free ext4 partition or create one. (Any size.)
5) Create a folder phoenix in that partition. (/dev/sdaX/phoenix, where X is the number of the partition.)
6) Move files initrd.img, kernel, ramdisk.img and system.img to the phoenix folder.
7) Create a folder data in that phoenix folder. (dev/sdaX/phoenix/data)
8) In terminal,
Code:
sudo nano /etc/grub.d/40_custom
add,
Code:
menuentry 'Phoenix OS' --class android-x86 {
insmod part_gpt
set root='hd0,gptX'
search --file --no-floppy --set=root /phoenix/system.img
linux /phoenix/kernel root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=Android_x86 androidboot.selinux=permissive CMDLINE
initrd /phoenix/initrd.img
}
Here X is the number of your partition. If your partition system is older, change
Code:
insmod part_gpt
set root='hd0,gptX'
to
insmod part_msdos
set root='hd0,msdosX'
Code:
sudo update-grub
9) Reboot and boot into Phoenix OS. Wait for while until it'd fill the /dev/sdaX/data
Enjoy!
Updated to v3.0.2.64
POS got updated to v3.0.2.64 today.
I'd like to get this running on the Nintendo Switch.
Would you be able to assist in any way?

I've never used any of these game consoles, so don't know how. If you know a way to create a partition and put in there those 4 files, and create a data folder and then call it to boot, maybe you can get it going.
Hello!
Perhaps this is not the appropriate topic where I could trouble you with a quick question, but since I'm already here, I was wondering if you could perhaps offer me a better insight about what my problem could be. I've searched left and right for an answer to this but I've yet to find one.
So I've been trying to install Phoenix OS alongside Ubuntu, however the system won't boot at all with this current version, it freezes at "Detecting Phoenix OS... found at (etc)" and nothing. The only one that seems to be working is v 2.0.2 but it's really unresponsive towards installing .apk files and buggy sort of speak.
I've also tried USB installation and yet again the same concept; I'm beginning to think it's because of my laptop perhaps?
It's a relatively old machine, but here are the specs:
System Model: X553MA
Processor: Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU N2840 @ 2.16GHz (2 CPUs), ~2.2GHz
Memory: 4096MB RAM
Display: Intel(R) HD GRAPHICS
Thank you in advance!

If you've installed POS the same way as I had, you won't get any crashes. I am writing from an MBR laptop from 2011 with Win7/Debian/Deepin/POS multi-boot.

Pls help. I dont know how to unsquash?
install to decompresses partition
I installed Phoenix OS parallel to Win7 in an own (NTFS) partition with theses *.img files for each Phoenix partition.
Q: is it possible to install to real ext4 partitions instead using compressed img partition?
Need Help
My GPU is damaged and keep shutting down by itself when I play games and the only way fix this is to limit my gpu speed clock to 555mhz from 725mhz..
I know how to do it on Windows, but not on Phoenix os-ROC
My GPU is ATI radeon 6730m.
The only way I know my current speed is in terminal, accessing radeon_pm_info.
Power level at 2, speed 725mhz and memory speed 900mhz at load.
No overheat issue.
Please help
Terminal problem
Sudo nano/etc/grub/40_custom: command not found.
I don't understand why it is happening. Can you assist? Please.
the file is located in /etc/grub.d/40_custom, not in /etc/grub/40_custom
Hello, just a quick question before i try it out. There is a tutorial over internet which dual boots phoenix from ubuntu root partition without the need to make a separate partition. The grub code provided is as follows:
insmod part_gpt
search --file --no-floppy --set=root /phoenix/system.sfs
linux /phoenix/kernel root=/dev/ram0 androidboot.hardware=android_x86 SRC=phoenix/
initrd /phoenix/initrd.img
this method doesnt unsquash the sfs file, and hence after booting to phoenix you cant change filesystem files as they are protected.
Question: can I use a system.img using this method? I find this easy and non destructive to my existing harddisk partition scheme. my guess is, all i have to do is change the code from system.sfs to system.img. Is there anything else i need to take care of?
Hey can you telle that where to find the terminal?
