I'm on a B09, bootloader unlocked and rooted with SuperSU 2.65 A2017G.
Except from the 2.65 version, is there another one working for the A2017G?
I want to get Xposed and if I do understand I need SuperSU 2.75 or above to get Xposed to work in systemless.
If there isn't another version could you guys help to get Xposed working on my phone?
That would be much appreciated.
EDIT: Well I'm dumb, I assumed Oki's guide only worked on the A2017U variant. Sorry guys :/
If you have the official version of TWRP you should be able to install the latest version of SuperSU.
Yeah I figured it out with the help of Oki's guide.
Thanks for the answer!
I'm having a problem where many apps do not get root unless I manually open SuperSU, which means that most root apps are not working properly because they can't work automatically. Is there another version of SuperSU or TWRP that I can flash to solve this problem?

Did you make sure to disable system write protection? Boot into TWRP, open up the terminal emulator, and issue the command: reboot disemmcwp
I'm having a similar problem while flashing superuser. The error happens after the "patching sepolicy" line runs. The error prevents SuperSU from being installed at all. Any suggestions?
You need to flash twrp 3.0.3 or above and flash SuperSU 2.79
Latest SuperSU Causes Endless Loops on the Axon 7
Literally, every time I install the latest version of SuperSU on my axon I get an endless bootloop. These are SuperSU files I get directly from chainfire's website. There must be something im missing, or maybe im downloading the wrong version? Im not sure i was hoping to get some help. I just tried installing: SR3-SuperSU-v2.79-SR3-20170114223742.
>> Can anyone point me in the right direction of the latest SuperSU that works with the Axon 7 that doesnt bootloop it.
I remember that the Pixel phones had SuperSUs that were made for it. I am wondering does the same thing apply here?
I have installed everything right on my phone to the T. Everything was brand new stock.

I just got my unlocked G5 Plus (XT1687) today and I've unlocked the bootloader and installed TWRP and SuperSU.
However, SuperSU seems to be randomly losing root access. It works for a little while, but then I'll get an error in SuperSU about root undetected and I have to reboot back into TWRP and reflash SuperSU. This has happened 3 times so far today.
Has anyone seen this issue in the stock rom? Is there some security process stealthily running in the background that deletes the su binary on a regular basis? I'm running build number NPN25.137-33.
Edit: SuperSU is running in systemless mode
I rooted mine using the Toolkit here yesterday and that afternoon it acted like i lost root. Root checker would say i didn't have root and just constantly flash that it was trying to get permission. I restarted it and it's been fine ever since.
I tried rebooting and it restores root temporarily, but I'm still losing it constantly (no set time interval, but I've seen it lost within a few minutes of a restart). Getting really annoying.
Would flashing one of the modified stock kernels potentially help this?
Hi,
I've the same problem. XT1685
Already done:
- reflash stock
- reflash updated stock
- reflash SuperSu 2.82 SR3 and SR4
Ever the same, after some (short) time the root is lost.
Unrooted from SuperSu app and installed Magisk 14.0: loses root after some moments!
Edit: after some reboots now its working. The root is maintained from 2 days. So Magisk 14.0 works.
Hi.
Here another confirmation. My XT1687 loses root rights once in a while. I’d say it’s about every 3rd day or so.. Simple reboot brings root rights back.
Config:
Build: NPN25.137-83
Kernel: 3.18.31-ElementalX
Root: Magigk 14.0
EDIT: When checking Magisk App I found out that Magisk crashed each time I started Superuser. So, I deinstalled Magisk and re-installed again. No problem ever since.
Always remember to un-optimize Magisk- (or SuperU-) App in battery options! "Boeffla-Doze-Control" also helps to avoid apps from falling asleep.
On StokROM + SuperSU 2.82SR5, I also experienced the same situation.
Running the following command no longer causes problems.
Code:
ln -s /su/bin/su /system/bin/su
Hello there.
I actually rooted my Moto G5 Plus according to this instructions. I flashed TWRP 3.2.1.0 and the last stabel SuperSU.
I also uninstalled SuperSU over "apps" on Stock Rom and tried to flash Magisk, but this causes in an error while flashing (It says something about "Error 1" and about the path, where the magisk.zip is, for further information I would try to flash again and tell you the whole error).
The latest thing I tried was running the command from highwaystar2699 over the terminal from TWRP, but still I loose root randomly.
Can anybody help? =(
Thanks in advance

Well, I can say, that after some updates of Magisk I don't experience the problem anymore. Neither me nor a friend who has the G5 (not Plus) have ever lost our root since being on Magisk Version 16.0
Maybe you should give Magisk a try...

Like I said, installing Magisk returns an error.
Nevertheless, after I ran the command from @highwaystar2699 and canceled the battery-optimization of SuperSU I've got still root after already 5 days of using the phone.
So, thanks for your help, for now =)
I have no ideas that you can solve your problem ...
What I got interested in your post(#8) is "I also uninstalled SuperSU over apps on Stock Rom".
If there is no mistake in my memory, SuperSU have an "unroot" menu, which should be used to uninstall SuperSU.
Did you uninstall by using "unroot" menu?
In any case, I am not sure how to recover the state of your g5plus.
I will not be able to help you. sorry.

How and where to run this code? Fastboot or adb terminal?

Just boot into TWRP and open the terminal (you can find it under "advanced" or "tools", not completely sure right now) and run that command. Maybe you should check where the mentioned su-folder is located right now on your phone, 'cause in my case it was at a different location.
@highwaystar2699: Yeah, afterwards I also realized that unroot-option
So maybe I have to unroot with that option and retry to install magisk. I will try that maybe, if I should loose root again. Or when the next update comes. (I'm a little afraid about that. Sounds difficult to OTA-update after rooting your G5 Plus...)
Either way: Thanks for your help! If I try something, I will report about it here
Super SU working for G5 plus. I don't think so. It has some problems. Bootloops are frequent.
Sooooo, hello again all! @highwaystar2699: I lost root again after one hour when I had to reboot the phone so I just thought about: "Why don't give it a try now?"
So I flashed the superSU again in TWRP to get root, startet the SuperSU app and choose "Unroot". I was asked if I want to unroot because of an OTA update, which I answered with "no". The app closed and root was gone.
I rebooted into recovery and tried to install the magisk 16.0 zip aaaaaaannnnd...
...got Error 1 again.
At the point "Unmounting partitions", TWRP says
"Updater process ended with ERROR: 1
Error installing zip file '/sdcard/Magisk-v16.0.zip'"
Now I'm back to superSU again. Damn, I don't know whats wrong here =(
Short edit for @Yeshu_bablu: Yes, after installing superSU, you've got 2 to 3 bootloops. But only the first time. After it's installed, the phone boots normal.
So, according to you... Which is better? SuperSU or Magisk?
SuperSU is obsolete, twrp you need latest version 3.2.1.0 or higher number if updated.
Once twrp installed you can install the rom of your choice with or without gapps package of your choice.
Then you can install magisk 16.3 for root and modules if wanted.

SuperSu is root, TWRP is recovery, 2 different things.

I'm sorry, SuperSu or Magisk?
Short update and big thanks to @highwaystar2699 and @Wolfcity.
After I completely lost root with SuperSU, I tried to install Magisk but failed everytime with already known Error 1.
But finally, after I got a stock boot.img and flashed it and instantly (!) installed Magisk after flashing the boot.img, the phone startet normal and now I've got root without problems.
FIY: When I only flash the boot.img and don't root it in TWRP, the phone keeps bootlooping.
So, to give @Yeshu_bablu an answer: Magisk is better. SuperSu only make problems with Moto G5 Plus. Magisk works like a charm.
I was waiting for a root enabler for oreo (41.3.A.2.24), and I could find https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-x-performance/how-to/guide-stock-kernel-root-twrp-drm-fix-41-t3711837.
But this link is for version 41.3.A.0.401 and it does not work for everybody including me.
Since androplus still didn't bring out a new version of his kernel I tried the method from the above link.
But I'm using newer versions than in the description, I use TWRP 3.2.0, Magisk manager 5.2.2 and Magisk 15.2.
I can install the new version, twrp, the new boor image and Magisk 15.2.
I can boot and Magisk runs but the Safetynet control failes and Magisk does not enable root.
On the installation of the boot image, twrp and magisk I got some messages (marked in red)
unable to mount storage
failed to mount
Before I tried with magisk manager 5.5.1 and magisk 15.1 but then I got stuck at boot time at the sony logo.
Does anybody have a way to root Oreo (the latest version), enable DRM and enable root?
Ok I started all over again and I noticed I didn't follow the procedure first time.
So I excluded the FOTA kernel but whatever else I check no full wipe is done, I can always see the previous installed apps, it does not matter if I check Cust-reset, master-reset or reset-wipe-reason, the system is not wiped.
So that's my first problem, how to wipe the previous install.
Flashing the rom seems to be OK, same thing for flashing boot_oreo.img and twrp-3.1.1-0-dora.img.
I'm not sure about twrp 3.2.0.0 because this version is off-line now, so I tried with TWRP 3.1.1.0 and 3.2.1.0 but they all gave me the same result.
Problems start when I have to flash drmfix.zip, safety-net cleaner or magisk 15.2. The procedure tells me the flash is ok but have a look at thet attached images, I get errors while flashing. One picture for drmfix, one for safety-net-cleaner and one for magisk 15.2
After flashing all of this I can boot successfully but when I try to get root in ES File Explorer pro, it does not work. When I go into Magisk and try the afety-net check I get ctsProfile false and basicIntegrity False.
So the rom does work but I do not get root.
I tried all of this with the Italian rom 41.3.A.2.24.R1E ? I can start all over again with the UK version 41.3.A.2.24.R2E but I do not know if this makes any sense.
So can anybody tell me what to do to get it all going?

1 - Do use always Adrian DC latest fully working TWRP build for dora.
2 - You don't need a 3rd party kernel to achieve that, instead, you can easily create your own one, based always on stock kernel!
Thats the SELinux's problem.
Flash this first then flash magisk

Hello guys,
I had been using Magisk & Xposed on Nougat before Oreo rolled out in December. However after update I lost root. When I flashed patched_boot.img I got stuck in bootloop (So I returned to stock boot.img). I am pretty sure bootloop was caused by some incompatible Magisk module. The problem is that I don't know how to disable them now - I don't want to install TWRP (because I want to be able to get OTAs) and when I use only "bootable" version of TWRP, it can not detect any files/partitions, so I am unable to use "mount-magisk.zip" to remove wrong Magisk modules. So I am kind of stuck.
Here is what I want to achieve:
- remove incompatible magisk modules
- gain root without permanent TWRP
- profit
I have been searching this forum for quite a while but couldn't find some relevant consistent information. Any tips how to deal with this?
At the moment I am running Oreo /w January update.
Thank you
For others looking for similar answers, I was able to solve it:
I flashed TWRP, then using "mount-magisk" removed all modules, then using MiFlashTool flashed original rom (you can do that without loosing data) and then I just followed guide to root using patched boot.img.
Good luck

im new at thisxda stuff but i am 90 percent sure i figured out how to keep magisk from uninstalling after a reboot... YOU MAY NEED TO UNINSTALL MAGISK AND ALL MODULES BEFORE DOING THIS USING MAGISK UNINSTALLER basically you have to also install an older version of supersu and it has to be an aroma installer and install as SYSTEM also make a backup of the boot.img just incase you get bricked if you install the supersu app it will say su binary occupied but install should stay install supersu aroma (2.78v2) from https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3879523&d=1474248173 before and possibly after magisk install...only tested with magisk 16.2 beta channel and regular install not patched boot on Axon 7 with RR 8.1 weekly 6.0.0 20180225 (us variant) but should work on others probably...let me know how this goes for you
TRY AT OWN RISK I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR DEVICE BOOTLOOPS OR BRICKS
If anyone has a better way to get magisk to hold after a few restarts please let me know
sidenote:this supersu does work with magisk not installed and definately keeps root
(stock boot.img is in initial zip for custom rom) select intall imgs in twrp and flash the boot partition as needed)
ALSO YOU CAN ALWAYS DIRTY FLASH CUSTOM ROM same build or higher IF ALL GOES TO **** AND WONT LOOSE APPS OR DATA AT LEAST ON RR
works for me without problems after last 2 years on any Rom.
dont know what you doing wrong?!
