Moto X Play bootlooping after installing SuperSU - X Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
A while ago i unlocked the bootloader so that i can root but have only had chance to do it now. I flashed SuperSU the same way as people who rooted successfully but now my phone bootloops. I did have a nandroid backup but i cant find it now so there isnt a backup. I flashed each system file seperatly as people had said and still no luck. I cant factory reset for some reason. Any help would be much appreciated.

You need a systemless root:

(XT-1644) Lost Root after TWRP stock Rooted ROM restore

I've never ran into this issue all the Android Devices I have owned. I'm hoping it's something simple yet annoying as fukc. Not sure if it's a TWRP issue ? SuperSU (latest version after update) is there and it shows as all apps are Granted su permissions.
As of right now, I'm back to my original stock MPJ24.139-49 , with unlocked bootloader. I am seeing a few different SuperSU(s) in the threads to flash. I would just flash stock firmware but trying to get to file is a pain in the ass.
Any help greatly appreciated...
https://download.chainfire.eu/751/SuperSU/BETA-SuperSU-v2.62-3-20151211162651.zip this works for me and i also restored from nandroid backup and didn't lose root so yeah try it u don't need to patch boot.img or anything just flash it with twrp dats it

Need some users to test a kernel :)

Can any harpia user , with a unlocked bootloader, test a kernel ?
Thanks in advance
I am unlocked, TWRP and root. Still on stock ROM. Just let me know if I can help.
I have unloked boot loader on stock rooted. let me know if I can help.
have unloked bootloader on stock rooted and xposed.let me know if I can help.
Can do as well!
XT1607 model (unlocked G4 Play) already Unlocked Bootloader, TWRP successfully flashed ... BUT NO ROOT YET! I'm stuck in startup bootloop after attempting to install SuperSU.zip from TWRP... (already tried the SUfixer.zip - no help) Also I tried wiping everything via TWRP. Is there an original stock firmware/rom/kernel/etc that I can try re-flashing to fix the bootloop? I can get into fastboot and recovery but I haven't been able to resolve the softbrick. I'm the one who always tells everyone to backup their data before trying anything. And of course I don't take my own advice!

XT1563 6.0.1 Rooting

Hello forum,
Is it truly possible to root the xt1563 running 6.0.1? I've followed multiple sties with instrutions and when I can easily get past unlocking the bootloader, installing twrp but when I go to install the supersu from twrp, I go into a boot loop.
Can someone here say that they've successfully rooted their xt1563 running 6.0.1? If so, where did you get your files?
Thanks!
I rooted my XT1603 on 6.0.1 successfully. I used twrp-lux-3.0.2-r3.img and flashed supersu 2.46, got a bootloop. I reflashed supersu 2.62-3, still got a bootloop. Then I reflashed supersu 2.65 and it worked. Thanks to this post:

thanks chinhodado. I will try to flash with 2.65. Do you know where I can find the same file you used?
Here: https://download.chainfire.eu/921/SuperSU
Didn't work. I first tried 2.65 then it froze on load-up. I left it for about 3 minutes, then rebooted in recovery. Tried 2.62 same thing. I left it load this time for 7 minutes. Stuck on motorola planet picture.
I honestly don't know what it takes to root this device. oneclickroot.com offer rooting for 39.95 which I think is silly. Somehow they seem confident that they are able to sell a "root" package.
I remain confused and frustrated.
thanks for trying to help chinhodado
Did you try wiping the cache? I think I had to do that several times too.

yeah that and davlik
only systemless method work on moto x play whether its XT1562 / 1563
Go to terminal in TWRP - Advanced-Terminal type command in your phone
Code: echo SYSTEMLESS=true>>/data/.supersu
http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-play/general/how-to-root-moto-x-play-xt1562-running-t3509344
I did not have to enter any command when I rooted my phone and it still succeeded in the end. I think 2.62-3 uses systemless root by default. It doesn't hurt to try though.
I am getting the same problem on XT1562, it stucks on Bootloader warning, tried everything above and available elsewhere. Help!

Lost root after updating Supersu (US996)

Hey, today Supersu wanted to update from the play store so i updated it, and once it was done it asked to restart the phone like usual, i restarted and when it was done booting supersu said the phone was no longer rooted. Not exactly sure what to do to fix this, i am on the unlocked V20 (US996) i am not running any rom, just stock and root. Hopefully you guys can help me get root back on my phone, thank you.
If you have TWRP installed , try to flash a supersu zip file for the update or one from a rom in the development thread . I just updated myself but didn't reboot yet.
I think the Playstore update screws it up.
You need to search the update .zip and flash it in recovery.
SuperSU 2.80 and 2.81 are both broken. Flash 2.79 SR3 in TWRP and root will be back. Worked for me anyway.
P.S. Don't re-update through the Play Store until they fix the issue, just stay with 2.79 SR3 for now.

I downloaded the supersu zip from chainfire's site supersu 2.46. Flashed it and then rebooted, however the boot never ended, it doesn't seem to be bootlooping it just gets to the final boot animation and sits on that, waited 10 minutes and it still never made it to the home screen, trying to figure out how to get into twrp from here.
Okay, i found this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/booting-recovery-t3488099/page2 which states that pressing the power and volume down button in a certain way will take me to a white screen asking me to reset my phone and that if i have twrp installed (Which i do) it will take me to twrp saying yes, should i do this to get to twrp and then flash Supersu 2.79 as jeston suggested? And should i wipe dalvik/cache after flashing?
Okay i fixed it, entered the bootloader by doing the power and volume button factory reset thing i found and then flashed supersu 2.79, then wiped the dalvik/cache and rebooted, it bootlooped once but it started after that and is working perfectly! Thank you all for your help!
Good to see you're sorted now.

I had the same problem. Lost root after allowing supersu to update from playstore.
Just flashed supersu2.79.zip in twrp and was rooted again.
I lost root after updating SuperSU. I don't think it was from the Play Store, it was a SuperSU notification that kept bugging so I let it do it's thing and then lost root after rebooting. I do not have TWRP because I have a locked bootloader (Samsung on Verizon). How do I get it back?

Root problem (full root not systemless)

Hi, so I was trying to get full root not only system less root on j730gm and what i followed here to rooted mobile witj twrp first(boot.img patched), then after that full unroot (keep boot.img patched) and in twrp gave command and install super su zip again and this time logs clearly showed system method while rooting, after all that I am getting bootloop. Mobile is hang on samsung logo, tried reset with twrp and official recovery both. Can some one tell me where i did mistake or where is the problem. My only requirement is to root this mobile and make super user app as system app. Even after hard reset mobile should stay rooted. Any help would be much appreciated.

I don't understand your goal?
Systemless root IS full root. Your terminology is incorrect.
SuperSU doesn't really support system root on Android 7.
I also dont see the point of making SuperSU a system app. Even though its rather pointless if that is all you require for whatever strange reason then you can just move the Supersu app to the system partition.
There is a better way to stay rooted after a hard reset and it's called FRP.
First there is nothing strange in stay rooted after hard reset, trust me. My friend use this mobile. He needs root for lucky patcher. When first he came to me I rooted it via twrp and after couple of days he came back with custom binary block option and plus he doesn't remember newly created gmail id pass. For me it was hell of a job. So i decided to root it permanently. I am not an expert though but my point was to take full root instead of systemless root. Thanks for clearing that 7.0 isn't supported for full system root. I saw here a rom stock dexoded and pre rooted. Is it better option to install it rather than stock rom?
See this link, i was trying to do the same

Like I already stated Factory Reset Protection (FRP) is already built in to SuperSU.
Just do the following in a terminal then re-install SuperSU:
echo "FRP=true">>/data/. supersu
