Adaway or similar? - OnePlus 6T Questions & Answers

Hello
Is there an adaway app or similar working on rooted 6t?

Once rooted, there's pretty much no reason why AdAway wouldn't work on the 6T (or pretty much any other android phone for that matter).

Yes adaway can be used. But I switched to systemless host module within Magisk.

There's already a thread

Device is rooted and verified with root checker, Amplify says not rooted. Help?

Hey guys, sorry if I'm posting to the wrong thread. When using Amplify on my rooted 6p on marshmallow, I had no issues with it. App was running fine. After upgrading to nougat and rooting my phone, the app says that my device is not rooted. However, root checker says my device is rooted and all my other root apps (greenify, titanium back up, kernel adiuter etc) all work fine. Any ideas as to why Amplify says that my phone isn't rooted?

Have you set all required permissions for amplify? Some apps just don't ask on MM and N.

Isn't Amplify an Xposed module? Xposed doesn't work yet on 7.0.

Amplify is an Xposed module and Xposed is not on Android 7 yet, if ever.. Also I noticed if you have your root in "system-less" mode it can cause this problem with amplify.

Quick root questions about the G4

So I have a LG G3, and doing system less root on it isn't something that is an easy task. Yes I do need systemless root, and I want to run systemless Magisk. I'm pretty much a moron when it comes to this stuff. Rooting my G3 was not an easy task for me, and when I asked about systemless root it was super experimental and not guaranteed to work. Not a task I can take on. So I was looking around at good phone that aren't too expensive and I'm thinking this one would be good for me, I'm just wondering how hard it is / if it is even possible to get Systemless SuperSU and then Magisk running on G4 Prime.

None of the Amazon models can be bootloader unlocked, and unfortunately you thus can't use SuperSU.
May I ask why you need systemless root?
FYI, this is the Moto G4 Standard/Plus forum (code-named athene), and you guys have your own G4 Play (code-named Harpia) forum.

SuperSU 2.8.x issues

I didn't see this posted here so FYI: As announced here, there are currently some issues with SuperSU 2.80 and 2.81 that are being worked on and Chainfire has recommended staying with SR3-SuperSU-v2.79-SR3-20170114223742.zip for now while he works the issues out.
If you have already flashed 2.80 or 2.81 and lost root it is safe to flash back to SR3-SuperSU-v2.79 using TWRP (according to the thread and it worked fine for me). Hopefully this prevents some from flashing a few different versions trying to get root working again.
You should switch to Magisk, more features and less issues

Interesting, I'll look through the treads. Thanks for the infos!
Switching from SuperSU to Magisk is pretty easy. I've done it on my N5, N6 & N10.
BACK UP FIRST. Did I need to say that...?
Unroot with Osmosis' Unsu.zip, make sure that you have the original boot image, which in case of doubt you can extract from your ROM and flash (or your preferred kernel - see edit below), then flash Magisk and install the Magisk Manager apk. Note: you must flash Magisk after the boot/kernel, as it does a similar unpack/tweak/repack/install to SuperSU's processing. If you flash the boot/kernel after, you'll lose root.
Just to add to the fun, there are two versions - the stable v12/Manager 4 and a project v13/Manager 5. My N5 & N6 work fine on v12. I couldn't get v12 to work on my N10, but v13 runs perfectly and all three devices pass Safetynet.
I guess you're here because you like tinkering. Magisk is well worth the fun...
Edit: All three devices are on Pure Nexus. The N10 has the stock kernel, and the others have ElementalX. You should be able to use your preferred kernel.
If you do decide to install Magisk, at first sight you may think you haven't achieved root - until you realise (as I did, duh) that you need to check Settings/Magisk Hide.
Once it's up and running, it works as well as SuperSU.
And why did I switch? Only possibly groundless worries about the change of ownership from Chainfire to a company.
I switched to Magisk because of the analytics fiasco, brought about because of inadequate communication from CCMT. As I noted in a now-deleted post, while the analytics may seem a trivial reason to switch, I believe the gatekeeper to the system root must be incorruptible to remain trustworthy. Had CCMT been honest about the analytics in the first place, I might not have switched.

I agree. That's what I did. I switched from SuperSu to Magisk and it's working fine on Stock 7.1.1.

You are so on point.
I switched from SuperSu to Magisk. Was a little hesitant to do so at first because I've been used to using SuperSu and Magisk was unchartered territory for me. But I decided to make the change and I'm glad I did. Magisk is working very well on my Shamu running Stock 7.1.1. I've installed a few modules, including Viper4Android and wow, what a big difference in sound quality (although those front firing speakers are very good in and of themselves, Viper4Android does indeed make a difference).
All in all, I'm happy to have Magisk installed on my Nexus 6.
Btw, I wasn't too thrilled the way the whole thing went down with SuperSu and CCMT. Not really trusting of that app anymore. To each his own, but I'll stick with Magisk.
For some reason Magisk is gone from play store.

I moved to magisk, too, thanks for recommendation. I would not even know about magisk that I have not read about it the last days. It seems a much better alternative, I doubt that I will not go back to SuperSU at this situation with CCMT etc. I'm upset with the last supersu's updates, I see, they do not want to do anything that would solve problem as soon as possible. What's the phh's superuser (I guess it's better to stay on magisk for now.)? I have never tried it. [emoji106] [emoji482] [emoji122]
Forgot, use PureNexus, all stock. [emoji122]

It's another open source root solution. MagiskSU is based on phh's superuser which in turn is based on koush's superuser.

Gear VR and other apps post root?

I was wondering if anyone else out there is having these issues or knows a work around for them
basically can't install gear vr, amazon prime video, netflix, etc
not sure if I need a root hider or custom rom to fix?
granted I'm still working through getting xposed working correctly, last I saw it was having problems with nougat but apparently someone's figured a way
So this thread is for discussing sideloads and getting apps working under root
My first thought is it'll probably go down a lot like snapchat, disable install everything re-enable
I have the G955U1. Rooted following both steps in the [ROOT]G955U/G9551U thread. Then, doing a search in the same thread, Post #744 has the fix for Netflix. My Hulu, Snapchat and Gear VR also work just fine (don't know if it's because of the Netflix fix too). I have not found a working exposed yet for this model phone. Maybe you should try the whole root process again?

problem with xposed is mostly with android 7 (nougat) itself, but there's a work around and it seems to function, but it's both unstable and some modules just don't work
edit: functions *conditionally* for androids via magisk, not stating s8 validation as of yet
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/xposed-android-nougat-sdk-25-arm64-t3639221
thanks for the info about getting these apps working though

Rooting Safetynet and Banking apps

Hi,
Phone: Moto G4 Plus(32GB)
TWRP + Magisk + Xposed + Elementalx : Is this a gud idea?
Is Magisk Hide effective enough to use Banking apps in rooted phones?
Whats safetynet exactly. What does it mean that its pass?
Its expected that Moto G4 Plus will get Oreo Update.
Will the Update be available if device is rooted with Magisk?
Is there a blog that any body has used to do this on their Moto G4 plus and has successfully worked with everything working without any issues?
can you give me the link to that step by step blog/forum which you used?
There were too many blogs/forums about this and there is a reply in each one them saying that their phone is bricked now. Dont want to take that risk.
Does anybody have a perfect/absolutely amazing blog with step by step guide.
This is my primary phone.
Your help will be much appreciated.

Not good idea,
Correct order,
TWRP > Custom kernel > Magisk . (Done.)
Don't flash Xposed if you want to use banking apps, it will break safetynet.

Personally, i don't use banking apps, but Magisk Hide works fine on other similar apps. So, it will be fine there..

Safetynet is term that is related to safety,
If your device passes safetynet then it's secure, banking apps and others will work fine,
But if safetynet fails, then your device is unsecured, banking and related apps may not work..
Its expected that Moto G4 Plus will get Oreo Update.
Will the Update be available if device is rooted with Magisk?

Even Lenovo/Motorola don't know when OREO will be there for Moto G4 Plus. No other comments
EDIT: If update available in future, you will have to be on stock unmodified ROM, that meams it will fail if magisk or any mod installed..
can you give me the link to that step by step blog/forum which you used?

Check Guides section for Unlocking and flashing TWRP,
And follow LATEST guide for rooting (older thread/information for rooting can brick your device)
And if you are finding XPOSED + Safetynet Pass + Banking apps, then not possible..
Hello there,
I too am using Moto G4 32GB Dual SIM (XT1643) as a daily driver and I am using a Custom ROM i.e. HAVOC which is an Android 8.1.0 Oreo based ROM. I am using Magisk and TWRP and banking apps like SBI anywhere, Kotak App are working flawlessly. I have not tested Google Tez though.
Even when I had the stock ROM, I rooted it using Magisk and Installed ElementalX Kernel via TWRP. I followed steps from XDA itself, used this link:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/themes/g4-g4-plus-how-to-install-magisk-pass-t3551896
And as per your question on SafetyNet, it is basically a security check for android developers so that they can verify that the phone is not rigged or rooted or modified. In order for every developer to write their own code to go through various checks to check the integrity of the phone, google provided SafetyNet an easy to implement feature for developers. For more on SafetyNet, visit this website.:
https://www.nowsecure.com/blog/2017/08/03/android-apps-google-safetynet-attestation-api/
And as far as Magisk is concerned, I personally prefer Magisk over any other rooting solution, there are more than one reasons for that. Mainly I that I play Pokemon Go, so Magisk does it's job very well hiding my device status from Pokemon Go.
For difference between Magisk and SuperSu, here is the link:
https://www.xda-developers.com/magisk-vs-supersu/
You can install OTA updates with MAGISK easily, just need to install STOCK kernel and Uninstall Magisk.
I've never used XPOSED on my device, so I cannot help you with that.
And you may know this already, but I will tell you just in case you don't, In order to root your phone or install custom recovery, you need to unlock bootloader and then install custom recovery like TWRP.
To unlock your bootloader, visit:
Motorola - Unlock Bootloader
And Finally, I hope you know what you're doing. Follow the steps carefully and always read comments and user reviews before doing anything at all.
Happy Rooting
Maybe Wait till OREO OTA comes
I asked this because these two links kind of suggested that it was possible.
https://www.reddit.com/r/nexus5x/comments/5wdb27/does_elementalx_kernel_break_safety_net/
https://www.xda-developers.com/systemless-xposed-android-oreo-available-pass-safetynet/
I may be wrong.
Maybe i should wait for Oreo OTA to come and then decide.
Magisk Xposed is not working, I tried both the version of Xposed but phone doesn't boot at all. So in short, Root with Magisk + banking apps is possible, but root with Magisk+Xposed (even Magisk xposed)+banking apps is not possible as of now.
I tried Sandhook and Yahfa, both are not working.
