I used to be happy with my Galaxy S4 with stock 4.2.2 (rooted) but then I bought a Samsung Gear 2 Neo and I discovered I couldnt used it if I'm not in Android 4.3+ (with all the samsung garbage). Then I tried Ota update (i like the official way...) but no luck because of system modified (Triangle Away couldnt make it...), then I tried Samsung Kies and voila! Android 4.4.2 Kit kat (I9505XXUGNE8 and then rooted with Towelroot) , state of the art.... and now one restart every hour or more...
Sure is some kind of compatibility and I know I probably can "fix" it in many hard ways (and probably end up doing any of them):
- Factory reset + clean cache (I didnt do it when I updated because I like the official and the hard way... I want to keep my stuff...and now i cant go to recovery mode either...)
- Flash another ROM, etc..
But I would like to know why, even if i can't fix it (as in my job as programmer I like to find the bugs...).
I narrowed down the problem to probably related to the Gear 2 bluetooth connection with the Gear Manager, as it seems not happening if i disable the bluetooth (but not 100% sure, I havent been several days without bluetooth to test it because I like my new toy and dont want to be without it right after i got it...)
I learned about some apps that record the log just before the OS crashes so thats what i have now, a lot of error logs with not very good clues but seems the final error before the restart is always the same.
Here are the highlights (that i can see and that shows in all logs):

Where the hell is /data/log? I cant find it...
And here the full last log of a restart: pastebin.com slash 83p56NMN (I cant paste links...)
Please, any help or comment is appreciated.
Greetings,

I saw this in other thread:
Don´t disable KNOX messaging with SuperSU (might cause random system restarts or bootloop if you thereafter removing knox).
Simply remove all shown Knox stuff and you´r done!
I did that when SuperSu asked me.... could it be the cause? how can i undo that?
Anyone? Anything?
Also the log is full of MP-Decision Errors, if that could be related...
Sent from my GT-I9505 using XDA Free mobile app
It seems a common new bug not related to bluetooth or gear
I finally found other threads that are full of people with the same problem of random soft-boots after upgrading to 4.4.2 and having root or disabled KNOX or similar. I also had reboots without the gear connected so it seems its not the cause but just maybe another trigger of the problem...
I'll try all the suggestions in other threads until I can make the reboots stop....
More information about the problem related to Knox (STILL waiting to confirm if it is the source of the reboots...)
stuff_me said:
Yeah, first thing I made, was the same thing after towelroot. I installed supersu from play store and I let it to disable knox.
Is there any way to revert that from supersu? I would feel more comfortable in that way. I did install titanium backup and found bunch of knox apps and services, but the app doesn't show out of the box is it freezed or unfreezed? Besides, I don't even know is that what supersu did(did it freeze it or disable, or what)?
Should freezing and then unfreezing from TI backup work? And after that I can delete all knox related crap?

I made the same mistake but after reading some posts in this thread I could unfreeze the knox apps that SuperSu had frozen using Titanium Backup. Just check all apps that contains Knox in the name and you will see a couple of them frozen ( in my case "Knox Notification Manager" and "KnoxMigrationAgent")
Now I will see if the reboots stop and maybe I uninstall of the Knox apps (or maybe not...)
SOLUTION!!!
See my post in: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=53896735&postcount=71
Everything of KNOX (2.0) must be deleted!!
Thanks for the info. For now by only unfreezing the knox that were frozen the restarts have stopped for some hours. I'll wait until the end of the day to see if it remains stable.
The knox apps are not bugging me so I prefer not to mess with them yet...
Are there more benefits for uninstall or erase them apart from the restart problem?

10 hours without reboots after unfreezing the knox apps that were frozen by supersu. In my case it seems the only thing necessary

I'd be not so imperative... I upgraded to 4.4.2, NF2, I DID NOT disabled anything of Knox, did not deleted it (simply: I'm not touching it) and I have no restarts since last 10 days (after update).
Secondly, you have rooted using CF-root which uses completely different mechanism (tripping Knox) than towelroot.
Hi,
I have an i9505 which is currently running NF1/1854187. CSC is btu and this was a recent clean install (and I've done the same preiviously)
I did run rooted for about a year. titanium backup to shut off a lot of bloatware with fine grained control, the xposed framework to tweak, and of course root access to use tools like better battery stats, and on occasion a custom kernel. The end result was good stability and power usage. Very happy.
However more apps are blocking root, and some manage to even detect root when using various root blockers, temporary unrooting or EVEN permanent unrooting (supersu). In particular the worst is "skygo" which I like to use to catch some content like f1 when out and about. My corporate software also detects root and wipes all enterprise data the instant it's detected.. plus add in a banking app and comms app, and keeping root was getting tricky.
On to my issue. Quite frequently the phone batter drops far too quicly. Today's example?
- In one hour battery drop is 10% (100->90)
- "Android OS is taking 30 mins of CPU, and 30 mins keep awake
- GSAM confirms 90%+ of the power usage is kernel/android os
- pretty much every user-disable-able app is disabled
- android OS contains loads of processes, making it tricky to track cause
- full wakelock data is not avaulable when not rooted
- user wakelocks total is down in terms of a few minutes only
This doesn't always happen.. sometimes the phone will be well behaved. the drop was around 3%/hour, and then I tried battery guru to limit auto-sync, and it did seem to help when well behaved, dropping usage to say 1.8% , but the core issue occurs with/without
I'm aware of many of the hints/tips of saving power, though I've done many of these.
I've previously seen mediaserver go awol and spin cpu, and deleted my spotify cache. Since then that process has seemed ok
Very frustrating that these silly "can't be root" situations (after all I'm "root" on all my linux boxes and admin on my windows boxes!) actually result in a LESS USABLE handset.
Is anyone else currently going through a similar situation?
I've just again checked settings and disabled airview/sensor related stuff. Next step if that doesn't help is to remove all my corporate sw stack and see how thing go - a frustrating process of elimination. As above I've already gone through a full reset with no help
try rerooting the phone then install SuperSU and choose FULL UNROOT. if you need to have a phone that will work with Sky Go etc. I've done this hundreds of times on the phone and it works guaranteed to get SkyGo working, so long as you have STOCK KERNEL. I am yet to find a custom kernel that does NOT autoroot, or mess up SkyGo in some other way. So be sure to be on stock kernel then FULL UNROOT.
As for the battery drain, have you updated to the latest version of SkyGo? Most of the old versions had some SEVERE wakelock issues where the app would be constantly running in the background and draining battery like mad. If you update to the latest version I've had very good results with it. Failing that you can drag the apps icon to the top of the screen where it says "app info" and from there you can "force stop" the app. I bet that this is the app which is killing your battery at present.

[/QUOTE[
Many thanks for that very clear, specific information. I had applied a custom kernel, and unrooted that - a classic error, changing two things at once. That did not work, with sky complaining about root - though the other apps were ok (sky are smart....)
With that information it gives me much more confidence I can indeed root/unroot the stock kernel, so I'm going to try that - at least it will let me tweak what packages are enabled - ie disable some of the samsung stuff I don't want/need that isn't user-disable-able. Any other thoughts welcome

Oh yes I'm bang up to date - my issue seemed more with one of the ootb packages rather than skygo. I have had the sky go issue in the past, but only when it's previously been run. I'm very used to wakelocks, and the user app wakelocks were well under control. That being said it's still annoying you can't get the app level breakdown unless rooted.
Anyway thanks again, that info about sky go/stock kernel/rooting was so helpful
Nigel.
Just to confirm root, unroot worked fine...
I disabled more apps with titanium backup. I didn't quite get as far as installing the xposed framework again, this stint was purely to prune down the apps somewhat. If that works/is stable I can tweak further
A little shame it requires hooking up to the pc to root again, but it's better than nothing!
SkyGo is still working, and corporate email threw a wobbly (by design) but is working again after the reroot
you don't need a pc to reroot though......store the towelroot apk on your phones mem card and just reinstall it from the phone (go to file managed, mem card, select the apk and install). then download supersu from play store, update, reboot, update.reboot. done. that's the good thing about using this method to root/unroot, you can do it all from the phone directly, no need to use a pc at all
::EDIT::
1 - root with towelroot
2 - install SuperSU from PlayStore and attempt to open and update binary (it may fail)
3 - reboot and open SuperSU again, if it again asks to update binary it will work this time, reboot once more).
4 - set up your options in SuperSU (e.g. no notification, trust system user etc).
5 - do whatever you need to do with root
6 - to UNROOT just choose "Full Unroot" option within SuperSU app, THEN also uninstall towelroot.
7 - Reboot and you'll be UN rooted and apps like SkyGo etc will work perfectly.
8 - If you need to re-root, repeat the process from step 1.
Thanks again. I'd been using cf auto root for a few years. Hadn't tried towel root. Thanks for the tips. Very helpful
After rooting the Note 4 for the first time with the stock rom, all apps I try to install get stuck on the "Installing..." screen, even in the Play Store they do the same for upgrading apps. That happened shortly after I installed the Xposed Installer ( being that the last app I could install on my Note ).
As I am writting this, one of the apps jsut installed but it lasted 2 hours, I know it isnt any connection issues because Im triying to install apks already downloaded. Please some help, I'm new to Samsung phones coming from a Nexus 5 and I find this a little bit messy.
Thanks for your time.
Personally for me xposed caused more problems than it solved. That would be my first port of call.
It may be worth checking your security settings, they may also be blocking your installs.

This happened to me too in other samsung device. Try this:
- Go to SuperSU - Apps - Forget Wanam Xposed.
- Go to Wanam Xposed app and give new root perms and update it if you need it.
- Reboot your device and try to install new apps. I think you won't have more problems. Good luck :highfive:

hi ,
i agree with JagDave that it seems that it could only be Xposed Framework .I stated in other threads ,that Xposed does not "play nicely " with Note 4. It will either break "something/app " when installing/installed or uninstalling ..?.
I had Xposed break apps eg... S health ..Private mode ,lag or as what you described above ..not installing apps /stuck on installing.
I had to use " work arounds /fixes /patches" ....Wanam ( Secure storage ) and then my device( N910f Note 4,)was working 100%. ,but to me it is not worth it and I uninstalled it( then it broke my Google Play app on uninstalling ! ) ,
Further i noted the dev ( rovio89 of Xposed stated in "earlier " post )that he was not going to" update" Xposed re the Dalvik /Art ( Lollipop ) issue .?
If you look at at his last stable update for Xposed framework it has been "months " back . (No wonder it "breaks " apps ...it was last updated ,before Note 4 was released( and thus not " optimized" for Note4 ? )
I have Xposed installed on all my other " old " devices and working 100% and i am happy with Xposed Framework , but Note 4 ..? (no ) and i can understand the dev rovo89 " issue" if it is worthwile further developing re Dalvik ?
I would rather wait for the dev ,to enabled Xposed to work with Art and re install it then .?
Bottom line.... its your decision to install or use workaround/fixes !
good luck
Thanks everyone, somehow after a few reboots and some time the problem fixed itself, I also managed to get S-Health to work properly but the Private Mode won't work since the Knox counter is triggered, something related to being rooted, as of yet there is no proper fix for it.

When I had all the problems with xposed, I also lost private mode. I restored my nand (1st I made after rooting) and both s-health and private mode work perfectly.

hello.
I have rooted my phone for some time with chainfire super user.
I started facing blue screen problems and random restarts now. thought maybe there is some hardware faults. started SU app and have choosed full unroot and problem have disappeared for some time.
What have happened and why?
firmware 4.4.2.
Currently i updated software through kies (nj1 update).
so far so good. no bluescreen for now.
update.. still getting randoms reboots... what is causing them?
I also had random reboots after I rooted. Though I don't think the super user app caused it. It happened only after I installed viper4android.
I changed roms since then and no problem.
Maybe you installed an app that causes it. Only thing I can suggest is, either change roms, or reinstall stock rom and root again
Did you delete Knox-related apps from /system?
no. i didn't delete them... should I? there were nothing mentioned about file delete in rooting manual so i did nothing.
Should I delete every file that contains word knox or any concrete files?
After I updated phone by kies, rooted again, data format couple times + dalvik cache clear, problem seems to disappear. for half day so far so good, no reboot.
to change rom will be next thing i will do if reboots reappear
Knox can cause problems on rooted phones. That's partly why you don't find Knox in ROMs based off stock. So yes, you should remove the Knox apps in /system.
just remembered... when I launched SU app it asked me do i want to disable knox. i choose yes.
is it enough for removing knox or it is necessary run for example DE-SAMSUNGNIZER_KNOX_REMOVAL_SCRIPT_V1.0.zip
p.s. sadly i can't install busybox. after i click install it shows "checking system" forever
Choosing yes was the right answer, but while SuperSU does disable Knox, I'm inclined to believe it's only so that SuperSU can properly function and install the su binary and doubt it's permanent. However, I never tested this, as I delete Knox apps regardless.
ROOT for Official Stock Nougat 7.0 (100% Working) - All Exynos Models (Tested it on SM-G930F/D SM-G935F/D)
By rooting you may lose some and gain some. Be careful in what you are doing.
Read each and every step mentioned in this post carefully and then start working on Root.
If you've any fear about the root. Please stop it here and close the window :angel:
Desclaimer:

Things that may not work:
No official OTA updates (Of-course)
All Knox Based Apps (Samsung Pass, Secure Folder, Samsung Pay, S Health)
But you can get the above working - We have some ways to make them work even after root. Please Check that after the root process below
Here are the instructions to root your Nougat:
Instructions are similar to Marshmallow. Main thing to note here is - Use the latest supersu build.
Prerequisite:
Samsung Drivers
ODIN
SR2-SuperSU-v2.79 and above versions.
twrp-3.0.2-4
Instructions:
Enable OEM unlock & Debugging Mode in the Developer Options
Reboot your device into Download mode. To do this, hold the [Volume Down] + [Home] buttons for a while.
Once you reach the Download mode warning screen, press [Volume Up] to continue.
Open Odin and place that TWRP tar file in the [AP] slot and disable Auto-Reboot and click on "Start" by connecting your phone.
When its done flashing, Hold [Volume Down] + [Home] + [Power] to get out of Download mode and immediately swap to [Volume Up] when the screen blanks.
If you don't see TWRP boot splash, try again.
At this point, you will reach the screen asking you if you want to allow system modifications.
By swiping right, you will trigger dm-verity, and if you don't follow the next step you will be unable to boot!
If you are going to root your device and follow the rest of these steps, then it is safe to swipe right and enable modifications.
If you want to use Systemless DevBase, then do not swipe. Keep it as read only.
Go to Wipe and click on format data. Type "yes" and it will format.
Now go back to home and click on "Reboot" then click on "Recovery" Option.
Now Transfer the above downloaded filed into your Phone or Memory Card or OTG Pendrive.
Now again click on Install and flash the Super SU. Only the latest Super SU is working fine with no issues. Do not use the old versions.
You can now click on reboot > system
It will take about 5 Min and boot. Done. You've got the Nougat rooted.
After the fresh boot, you will setup everything. Once you are in, you can observe a notification.
This is a security notification - unauthorised actions have been detected. Restart your device to undo any unauthorised changes
Disable the notification permissions in settings and restart your device by using power button.
Do not restart it by using the option mentioned in that window!
Now go into supersu app. A popup will open to disable the Knox. click on OK. It will take some time to disable it. If its taking more than 5 min and failed to disable, then restart the mobile again and do the same step. it will work now.
Note: You can ignore the last step, If you want to use KNOX - do not disable it.
How to Disable the notification permissions:
Slightly move the notification to the right. You can see a 'settings icon'. Click on that and you'll be taken to notification permissions.
If you see "Allo notifications", disable it.
or
Go to Settings > Applications > Click on 3 dot menu on the right corner and select "Show system Apps". Find "SecurityLogAgent" and open it.
If you dont see that option to disable the notifications:
Go to settings > device maintainance > Device Security > Click on scan device once and close the settings.
Open the supersu app and you may see the popup to disable KNOX. click on OK. (If you've already done this, just restart your mobile)
Restart the device. Done.
If you the see the notification again, install titanium Backup app and Disable/Freeze - SecurityLogAgent & SharedDeviceKeyguard.
Restart your mobile.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I've Mentioned that some of the things may not work. But, You can make it work if you follow some of the other threads posted for our S7.
Here is the list of all the different threads about Root:
1. If you dont need anything except root : Follow the above root process and you are done.

@Chainfire
@jcadduono
@_alexndr
@zubi182
@NQNH
And All the Devs working on S7.
Special Note:
Please do not use the old versions of supersu on Nougat. You'll have some problems with the root. You may get the root but some of the things may not work well.
Camera doesnt work, flash light doesnt work, wifi problem, delay in response, keyboard doesn't work properly, App closure etc etc.
So, use SR2-SuperSU-v2.79-SR2-20170103215521 and above versions for better results.
Phsuperuser and magisk will also work but, you may have to use custom kernels.
Did you brick your device ?
Then flash the official firmware using ODIN. Download the official stock firmware from sammobile.com or by using this tool
Hit Thanks if it helps :fingers-crossed:
have a good day:good:

or
Go to Settings > Applications > Click on 3 dot menu and select "Show system Apps". Find "SecurityLogAgent" and open it.
Some of the members are unable to see this option. Members who have upgraded directly from Marshmallow to Nougat are having this issue. You cannot change the notification permissions for system Apps. And for those who have upgraded from Beta, they have the option to disable. not sure why.
If you dont see that option to disable the notifications:
Go to settings > device maintainance > Device Security > Click on scan device once and close the settings.
Open the supersu app and you may see the popup to disable KNOX. click on OK. (If you've already done this, just restart your mobile)

Restart your mobile.
We have some MODs available to remove knox and bloatware for Marshmallow and Beta Nougat. I did not test any mods on this official Nougat.
May be after sometime this procedure will get easy.
Hope that helps :good:

It will take about 5 Min and boot. Done. You've got the Nougat rooted.
You may get a security notification that "unathorised actions have been detected. Restart your device to undo any unauthorised changes."
Open the notification and scan the device once. Then Disable the notification permissions for that in settings and restart your device by using power button.
Do not restart it by using the option mentioned in that window!
By using power button, restart your mobile and go into supersu app. A popup will open to disable the Knox. click on OK. It will take some time to disable it. If its taking more than 5 min and unable to disable then restart the mobile again and do the same step. it will work now.
How to Disable the notification permissions:
Slightly move the notification to the right. You can see a 'settings icon'. Click on that and you'll be taken to notification permissions.
If you see "Allo notifications", disable it.
or
Go to Settings > Applications > Click on 3 dot menu on the right corner and select "Show system Apps". Find "SecurityLogAgent" and open it.
Some of the members are unable to see this option. Members who have upgraded directly from Marshmallow to Nougat are having this issue. You cannot change the notification permissions for system Apps. And for those who have upgraded from Beta, they have the option to disable. not sure why.
If you dont see that option to disable the notifications:
Go to settings > device maintainance > Device Security > Click on scan device once and close the settings.
Open the supersu app and you may see the popup to disable KNOX. click on OK. (If you've already done this, just restart your mobile)
Restart the device. Done.
If you the see the notification again, install titanium Backup app and Disable/Freeze - SecurityLogAgent or SharedDeviceKeyguard.
Restart your mobile.

Special Note:
Please do not use the old versions of supersu on Nougat. You'll have some problems with the root. You may get the root but some of the things may not work well.
Camera doesnt work, flash light doesnt work, wifi problem, delay in response, keyboard doesn't work properly, App closure etc etc.
Use SR2-SuperSU-v2.79-SR2-20170103215521 and above versions for better results :good:
I haven't tried ph super user and magisk! So, cant comment anything on that.
Hit Thanks if it helps.
have a good day:good:

Read on TWRP thread that the latest super su does not require flashing of no verify zip file as it does the job? Is that true?
But now I can't log in on Snapchat

I think it's your first time to root your phone.
Snapchat will not work on Rooted devices. Its blocking the user to login on rooted devices.
But, we have many threads in XDA on how to use snapchat despite the root. You should takeout some time to search on google
Here is a thread by @TheGejr - Snapchat on rooted devices without Xposed (Nougat)
Another Thread : Snapchat and Root
Or you can use the following steps:
unroot your phone and Restart : Open Supersu > go into settings > go to 'Clenaup' Category > click on "Full unroot". It will remove the root.
Login to your snapchat.
Root the phone by super su again.
You can use the snapchat again.
Hope that helps

Yeah Right. Its not needed (as per the comments in that thread).
I have observed the same in MM as well.
In most of the rooting method threads, everyone recommended to flash the no-verify zip. So, I did the same.
Will see if it works that way with the new supersu.
May be you can try that when you get the nougat update

In the new official Nougat, S Health app is checking the KNOX flags due to updated security policy. If your knox tripped, then it wont work.
I've tried removing the knox, Removed S Health app and installed it as user app. Nothing worked.
This is working in custom ROMs. Anyway you want to root the official stock, so using custom roms is almost the same. Try them instead of this
[MENTION=817964]@Killer333 yeah, I know mate; becouse of that I'm waiting for new superman rom

I didn't try it myself but maybe it will work:
Just delete S Health completely from system/app and get an older version (e.g. 4.8) from apkmirror. Install that apk as a regular user app and let it update. Some people claim that this method worked for them.
Root dont work
Hi i have s7 with nougat official and I root the phone is ok I have root all good but the root apps don't work properly they ask for permission every 10 sec or crash or they tell my i don't have root the root futures of apps don't work properly
(Lucky Packer crash . Game killer after premison don't work or they tell my my phone isn't root .app2sd error on root)
just install the TWRP another kernel for example, TGP Kernel then lucky works
