I need some help getting to install SELinuxModeChanger to use with V4A. - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I just can't get SELinuxmodechanger to work. I am on N preview 3. I open the app and give it root acces, but then it just says ''App was unable to gain root acces''. What's the problem?

The Dev for the App had apparently abandoned the App so I, kind of, just took it on for further development the best i can.
If you want, uninstall that app and restart your device.
Once your booted up, try the one from the link below, that was slightly modified, for the Marshmallow and Nougat ROM's.
SELinuxModeChanger.ver.3.2.build.42.test1.apk
Then let me know on the following thread:

[Q] Has anybody managed to get Sky Go working with Rooted Nexus 7?

I'm just wondering if anybody has managed to get the Sky Go app working with a rooted Nexus 7?
I've read somewhere that a rooted Android device can work with Sky Go if it is running a stock kernel and used in conjunction with Temp Root Remover.
If anybody has, please share your set up. :good:
Many Thanks,
Andy
I don't have an active Sky account anymore, but on Modaco JR13 with Stock kernel and unsecure boot.
I managed to load the app and sign into my old account without any problems.
Obviously I didn't get as far as watching TV as my account is closed.
Hope this helps.
+1 would like top know if it is possible

This thread ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2042095 ) describes a possible workaround (removal of supersu) but grants all subsequently installed apps root access after this, hence not ideal.
Fingers crossed a more secure method or patched apk arises in the future!

OK so I have a nexus 7 (2012) on standard Android 4.4.4.
Rooted with CWM and superSU 2.01
I just used the root hider app from the play store and selected ..
Hide Su binary and then
Uninstall super user (selected chain fire SuperSU option)
I then had to go into my root of my nexus 7 and remove the sky go files stored there.
After I deleted them I then restarted the tablet.
I can still reinstalled superSU as I'm still rooted but its a bit of a Hassel ATM as every time I want to watch SkyGO I have to follow the same routine, hideSu > uninstall superSU > delete SkyGO files from root dir > restart tablet.
I think there should be an Xposed module to hide root to certain apps, not 100% sure though..
A simple google search would answer your question: http://lmgtfy.com/?q=hide+root+access+android+xposed+module
But any ways here is the right module: http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.devadvance.rootcloak
It's called rootcloak. Remember: you need the Xposed Framework!

I have tried this and everything says that the phone is rooted, however, when I open apps they are not asking for permission. Is there something else that I need to do? Apps that work only on rooted phones are working fine so I am kind of stumped. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

That's the way it works and part of the reason the exploit is scary, apps don't ask for permission.

I have SuperSu installed and I do get prompts for granting or denying apps permission, but yeah if you don't have a Superuser access management tool, apps are granted root permissions immediately. If you don't want that custom boot logo and that's why you uninstalled SuperSu (if you even had it), you can use Wanam exposed and Xposed framework to fake system status and set it to official.

I have SuperSU installed and that is what is confusing me. Sometimes it asks me to grant permission for apps I open and then other apps will open without asking any permissions.

Do the apps that open without notification need root permission? If they don't they won't ask for it.

Here is what i am trying to do...I used to be able to get music from Google Play to Doubletwist with my rooted phone. I had to unroot it and then root it again. Doubletwist used to ask for permission, however now does not. Nor will the music move over. Long story short, that is what I am working on. Unsuccessfully, I might add. Last time I rooted the phone, I used the SD Card method and this time I used towelroot. Not sure if that would make a difference or not.

Thanks for the completely bland and incorrect Guide! Nowhere in that ZIP archive is a file called "CheckBeforeActivation". With many hundreds of thousands of these devices in the marketplace, do your fellow XDA members and GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT BEFORE YOU POST!!!:silly:
The file was removed as it was it copy of another file

how come you cant update supersu??
I tried this method to root my device, I have a BBY build. The application says it rooted okay. When I reboot the device and try to install BusyBox it says it doesn't get a response from the device. When I check root with Root Checker Basic it says that the device is not rooted. Any thoughts on what I might be missing?
Is the super user app installed?

its safe to update it now..before it would remove superuser and you would have to factory reset the re-root
To the OP, it looks like you just reposted the work of twenty-three pin from here:
https://translate.google.de/transla...sts/247110-merry-christmas&edit-text=&act=url
Too bad when you were stealing someone else's work you didn't work slowly enough to notice that he mentions that the Asus 572C should use V2 of his work:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/ui9ipe786dulj98/AsusIntelRootKitv2.zip
Hope this helps someone.
If you check the commands int the .bat file, you will see they are different... Its just basic fastboot commands. And as of recent updates the me572 can't be rooted using this method. So I'll head back to the drawing board as soon as I get time to

[Q] Possible Half-Rooted device, or other problem?

Hello to everyone,
I own a Galaxy S5 G900F, (Unlocked Variant).
I have downloaded and installed LOLLIPOP AMBASADII.ODEX.V6.1 ROM with Aroma Installer and I am using Amplitude Kernel.
The rom came pre-rooted, with SuperSU Installed. I Only updated the app from the PlayStore. The program DID NOT prompt me for Binaries Update. I also have BusyBox installed.
When I check the root status with Root Checker, it says Success, which means there is root permission. Also, I checked it with Platinum Backup, and it also gives permission for root access. Finally, I downloaded a Root Browser, and that works fine as well.
The problem is with value-changing apps like game killer, game cih, haXplorer and game guardian. Although they prompt me to give permissions, and I chose "allow", none of them is able to work.
In game killer, it says "root privilage is needed"
In haXplorer, as soon as I open it is says "shutdown"
In game guardian, the program auto closes instantly.
All the above issues have to do with proper root Access.
So, how is it possible for programs like FX File Explorer (root), titanium (root), root checker and others to have root access, while others don't?
I would really like your answer on this, as I am trying for one week to solve this issue with no results.
Thank you.
Once you get root access, it is sytem wide, not by app.

Thank you for the reply. Yeah I know that, so what should be the problem?
Maybe you need an app to hide or cloak root status.
That such thing exists for Xposed framwork, but thus it is not comparible with 5.0 TW ROMs, you will have to downgrade back to 4.4.2 in order to use it.

[REQUEST] Find 5 (X909) Root Method for Android 4.4.x and above

Hi everyone,
I'm having trouble getting root on my Oppo Find 5 ever since I switched to cROMs based on Android 4.4.x or higher.
Until 4.2.x Framaroot apk did the trick for me, but it doesn't seem to work on the newer versions anymore. Right now, I'm using MIUI v7 (Android 4.4.4) and I'm pretty happy with it, but I hate not having root and I can't find anything useful online. Most English threads are from way back where .zip downloads are down already and/or the info is terribly outdated.
Did anyone find a method to root their X909 on Android 4.4.x and above?
I would greatly appreciate any help.
Go to security app in MIUI and go to permissions => Root acces.

It only says that no apps have root permission. Does MIUI have a built-in root access? The Security stuff seems to me like a root manager only, similar to SuperSU and Superuser.
I also downloaded Root Check for whatever it is worth and it says my device is not rooted.
edit: I just checked some other threads and apparently developer versions of MIUI have built-in root access. My X909 is currently running the ported ROM by wuxianlin000000 though. I'm not sure if it's supposed to have root as well.
I tried starting Titanium Backup in hopes of getting a root access request, but it just showed an info box that no root access could be acquired.
I'm running the same rom and I have root acces. Dont know how I enabled it but it wasn't anything I had to flash and pretty sure it was something in settings. Try checking security app root options again and grant root acces to the apps that are listed.

I think I'm going to reinstall once again to see if it fixes anything (doesn't bother me that much since I wanted to try LVM installation anyway). Are prerooted cROMs the norm after 4.2.x? Else, I'd still really like to know a root method that works regardless of the ROM.
Short update:
I don't know why but MIUIs root worked when I checked again today. I don't know why, but beforehand there were no "requests" from apps shown under Security > Permissions > Root access. Today, however *something* (I really have no clue what) apparently changed and apps requesting root access are shown and I can grant them access.
