I was wondering if harm would come from try an 8.1 magisk module, like greenify, viper4android, on 9.0. I don't know how close the OS are in that sense. I haven't had to get out of a sticky situation on a OP device yet. Just wanna be prepared.

Hello XDA.
Been looking around this sub-thread for N6p, but I cannot seem to find an updated/maintained thread for systemless root on android 7.x.x.
Can someone point me to one, or tell me how (if) I can get systemless root on custom rom (AICP).
I would really love to get it so I can use Magisk (got some root hating apps I want to use)
Thanks in advance
Bjørn
I believe Magisk handles all of that now if you're using Magisk Hide, etc. Ask in the Magisk discussion thread. You'll probably have better luck their as not everyone runs Magisk. They'd also have to most up to date information for you.
Hi to all,
ORIGINAL BUILD
Nexus 10 Manta 5.1.x
CURRENT
Resurrection Remix 7.1.2, and LATEST busy box pro, SuperSU Pro,
Other than that I have not added or changed anything else.
IT SEEMS that ROMs take up a lot of System space, then I cannot add a larger gapps package.
WHAT I WANT TO TRY
Does Magisk have its own ROM package?
I have read about VIPER ROM - but it seems to be for the HTC?
1). I would like a SMALLER ROM package where I can use Xposed Framework and modules. Which ROMs would that be, and does it take me back to Marshmallow?
1a). Is this where Magisk works well - allowing me to install xposed?
1b). With my current ROM, I cannot install more software. (Yes, I have removed apps that I do like to install others) - Is this ROM considered a LARGE system space hog?
2). Is there a HUGE difference between nougut and marshmallow? If not, I do not mind going back to Marshmallow to get xPosed Framework.
3). I do not want all of the Bloated google apps, but would like to pick and choose which ones to install - which I think would be AROMA Gapps?
4) which ROMS are best and SMALLER (is there such a ROM), for marshmallow?
5). Is there anything SPECIAL I need to do if I go from Nougut BACK to Marshmallow?
Any other suggestions are very welcome. I have been searching, studying, and looking for specific information to answer my questions........maybe some of the answers exist, but I might need them in simpler answers. Smiles
Thanks to all!
How funny. It is Jan 2, 2018 and I am still researching Systemless Roots and Xposed subjects......looking for the best way to get XPOSED back on my Nexus 10..... (Love Xposed)
........I just noticed this question and decided to read it.......lo, and behold.......it is one of my earlier questions I wrote back in July 2017.
Haha......and still no answers for it.....
........made me laugh......

Dude just delete system apps, it frees space fro Xposed and ****, and magisk shouldn't take up any /system space anyway.
I have R. Remix ROM (nougat) 7.1.1 on my nexus 10.......I want to find out if I can use Xposed.....
Or if I just go back to Marshmallow?
AND
Did I understand that Xposed is now a Systemless way to root? On ALL devices?
Is Xposed available for the june security update ...if it's there please provide the link or the instructions ..thanks in advance
If you really want to, you could give the xposed Nougat flashable a try: https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/xposed-android-nougat-sdk-25-arm64-t3639221 or https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-xposed-v87-unofficial-yes-im-t3639192
You'd want SDK 24 arm, and of course you'd have to running TWRP (and magisk if you wish).
However, this unofficial variant of xposed appears to be hit and miss for many users on Nougat (presumably because it's supposed to be directly implemented into the ROM, rather than flashed on top), so your experience may vary. Some modules appear to function, others not so much (https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/unofficial-list-modules-nougat-xposed-t3639615 for a list)
Again, if you really wish to try this, back up your device in TWRP first before attempting this, and if it's not stable, then you may wish to wait for rovo89's official xposed.

No problem - again, be aware that the xposed builds I linked are still experimental (and though based on rovo89's work, are unofficial builds), some things may work, others may not, and in a number of cases I noted that bootloops have occurred. That could either be due to the implementation of xposed or the modules not formally updated to work with Nougat.
Best thing to do is to back up your device in TWRP before you flash this xposed if you still choose to flash, so you can revert should your system be unstable. Also, bear in mind that having xposed on your device may stop SafetyNet from working, so you may lose access to certain apps (e.g. Snapchat, Pokemon Go, various banking apps) unless xposed is disabled or removed.
Hello
I've read around this a lot here and elsewhere and I can't seem to get a definitive answer as to the best solution to the root I'd like. I would like to use TiBu and play PokemonGO (and perhaps use the Barclays UK banking app). It looked like Magisk was the way to do this with Nougat 7.0. This video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjwSjiE76o8
Which is also shown here in a series of screenshots:
http://galaxys7root.com/galaxy-s7-s...s7-or-s7-edge-on-android-7-0-nougat-w-magisk/
...would seem to do what I want. But I expect I would use updated versions of Magisk etc.
I can see threads on here that would indicate that Magisk is now not able to help you pass safetynet with a rooted phone but I think that may be for updated versions of Android and 7.0 may still be OK.
Can anyone confirm that the rooting method shown here is sensible. Or, failing that, the best way to achieve what I want with a currently stock G930FD running 7.0?
Thanks
Maqgisk does by pass safetynet.
Magisk has it own root now built in.
the links you have provided user older versions of magisk without dated installation methods.
Install twrp on your phone then magisk v.14. you do not need any other files.

Thanks! That's the kind of definitive answer I was looking for.
Btw, which Android version are you on? I have an update available that I can download but not sure I should. As I said, I'm on 7.0 so not sure what I'd end up on if I updated.
As I like TouchWiz but would like to reduce the bloat, I am tempted by the Superman ROM, which makes the update point moot.

I am on a custom s8 7.0 rom called galaxy project.
Hi guys! Got an A1 dirt cheap, and oh my god is it the perfect lovebaby from pure android and xiaomi design (cough apple cough).
I'm not completely new to rooting, flashing, etc. but there seems to be quite some difference between A1 and my old HTC 10, so I'd like to gather some info from you guys.
So, ideally I'd like to have/do this:
stick to stock rom and kernel, no issues there. also, staying on 8.0 is no problem, no need to upgrade to 9.0 whenever that comes around.
get TWRP going, so I can; get xposed and root
somehow keep netflix and snapchat going after root, now I know that rooted devices can't, but I'm hoping you guys know something I don't.
I'm used to rooting with SuperSU, no particular reason other than habit. I see a lot of magisk going around here, are there specific benefits to it? And why do we need to flash an .img for rooting, I could straight up root after unlocking bootloader on my HTC 10.
Kind regards
I can only provide you some info about magisk. People here tends to root with magisk maybe because its features. It can install mods systemlessly. You can google what is that. And basically for me, magisk is easy to use. We can find mods easily from Downloads section and manage mods with ease. And for me a custom ROM user, magisk its a must . And I never use xposed on a1 because when not careful enough it can make bootloop. No one like bootloop.
And yeah, Mi A1 is a beauty, especially the design (Cough apple cough) hahaha
