So I completely wiped my Nexus 4 yesterday (everything but internal storage) and clean-installed the 12/29 CM13 nightly + nano Gapps. Everything was working great, installed a bunch of apps from Google Play, etc.
Then this morning I booted to recovery and installed SuperSU 2.46 via recovery zip flash (not via the app), which appeared to flash successfully/with no errors (plus I now see a supersu directory at the root level of my device).
I then rebooted and got stuck at the boot animation. Went back to recovery, wiped dalvik cache and regular cache, rebooted, and I'm still stuck at the boot animation. Reflashed the zip and then wipes dalvik/cache, still stuck.
Any ideas on (a) how to fix without rewiping-reflashing, and (b) how to get root on CM13? Thanks!
EDIT: Forgot to mention my bootloader is unlocked and I have TWRP recovery.
EDIT2: Appears to be solved. I simply deleted the "/supersu" directory in the TWRP file manager and it now boots fine. Unsure if it screwed up hidden stuff, but I didn't have to wipe my system partition, which is a win in my book.
You don't need SuperSU on CM since it has root acces integrated, you just need to enable it under developer options. Format system, cache/dalvik and reflash cm13 and gapps.
Well ****. Looks like I needed to use the newer beta versions of "systemless" SuperSU, like 2.56 or 2.61 for Android 6/CM13.
I wasn't aware that installing 2.46 would cause me to get stuck at bootup, though! That sucks. Still looking for a solution.
Ah I wasn't aware of that. Thanks!
I deleted the /supersu directory, reflashed the 12/29 nightly, wiped caches, and the phone got past the boot animation and booted normally. I'll reboot a few times and see if things are OK.
Saved me from having to format system yet again and redo everything.
Install 2.56b Beta thats working coz it uses systemless ROOT
Do not install 2.56b , because you won't be able to install 2.60+ supersu after that without reflashing system. Install 2.65 beta. It's stable and tested on cm13. I use it myself.
Thank you so much for this - I flashed 2.46 on cm13 on my motog3. I thought I'd lose all my data since I have device encryption and an external sd formatted as internal storage (which is unsupported in twrp for the moto3g, so it isn't accessible for backing up).
I just reflashed the rom and cleared cache and it's back to normal, encryption was fine, all my data is here, and the external sd card functions as well. Saved my ass.
I tried this and it didn't work. I installed supersu while on CM13 and it got stuck at the boot animation of CM. I deleted the /supersu directory reflashed the newest nighlty rom and wiped caches but still stuck at boot animation. I'm on TWRP btw
Doesn't cm13 have an option to enable root under developer settings?
Hi,
I have a rooted OP5 with 4.5.13.
I tried to install the flashable zip (from here) via TWRP without wipe, but ended up in a bootloop.
I've restored to the nandroid backup, wiped data, and tried again. This time the OP5 managed to boot only to recovery.
I've verified the md5 of the file I've used.
Do you know why this is happening? Do you know how I can upgrade to 4.5.14?
Thanks.
Did you download the full ROM or just the update?
I tried both. I didn't succeeded to install the update (as it is not intended for rooted devices).
The full rom is what caused the bootloop.
If you are doing a dirty flash you wipe cache and system. If you are doing a clean flash you wipe cache, system and data. It doesn't sound like you wiped the correct partitions when doing your flash. You also need to flash Magisk or SU after the ROM flash and before booting up or you will lose TWRP and root. If your phone is decrypted for some reason you also need to flash a no verify zip or your phone will boot loop because OOS is made for encrypted phones.
Before going into the subject, I'll say that I have tried to seach this matter in XDA and Google, but nothing showed up.
Okay, so my matter is that I can't restore my backup of stock rom(8.0) after I flash a 8.1 rom. I've backuped with official TWRP "recovery-3.2.1-2-oreo.img".
My procedures are :
back up stock 8.0(system, data, cache, efs) with official TWRP "recovery-3.2.1-2-oreo.img"
flash oreo rom(with wiping internel, data, system, cache) and boot it fine.
restore my stock backup with same TWRP
boot system
The results are :
Goes past boot logo
Boot animation('android one' with colors sliding) shows up
and... just infinite loop of boot animation.
The ROM I used is RR.
I think the main problem is related with encryption.... Just my thought, tho.
So what I'm asking is :
1. If you face the same problem as me?
2. If you aren't and you restore goes fine, please tell me your procedures including ROM used and TWRP used.
3. Whether it is safe to decrypt stock rom?
Thanks in advance!
You don't need to flash stock ROM again. You have a system image backup(system, data, cache, efs), right? Wipe data , system, cache if you are coming from any other ROM. Then reboot to bootloader. Boot into latest TWRP from Fastboot (don't flash). Then go to restore and restore the system image you had backed up. Don't restore efs if you haven't lost your IMEI.
I've done exactly as ypu told, but it doesn't boot...
Did you manage to restore without problem with your method?
Yes I was able to. No problem here.
What TWRP did you use? Also, what ROM have you flashed?
Used the latest TWRP by MohanCM for Oreo. I did it when I was on Lineage os and wanted to go to stock
@guy_infinity Okay, thanks for your answer! Gonna try out later, once more.
Hmmm.... Still didn't boot up.
I thought I had to do everything from the begining, but flashing stock with save userdata option rescued me.
P.S. does anyone know about the error E: recv error on uevent?
try flashing stock rom using mi flash and after flashing restore normally using latest twrp/deadman's without system image voila everything will be back
@arjunbalan1994 Big thanks for your suggestion! Will try that too later
Hi, did you solve your restore problem? I have the same w/ my Redmi Note 5 and stock Miui backup after flashing RR.
Thanks for your help
I was use 8.1 root and twrp recovery. Yesterday fastboot flash may rom and update 2nd may OTA
Don't understand : May rom is Miui rom?
And did you restore your miui rom 8.0 backup ith twpr after the fastboot flash stock?
I am running RR 7.1.2 and i went into TWRP made a backup and saved it on my comp(the whole TWRP file) and wiped the phone. No rom, nothing but TWRP. i then tranfered the same rom, RR 7.1.2 gapps and magisk. From TWRP i flashed the ROM, then gapps, then magisk. I then went into the phone downloaded rootchecker and made sure we were all good. I went back onto my computer and then replaced my phones TWRP folder, with the TWRP folder i saved earlier that contained the backup. Evrey single time i go into TWRP and retore onto that backup, it gets to about 65% and the phone restarts back into TWRP. cant get it to work at all. Any suggestions? Thank you.
I've been running rooted CRDroid 9.0 (with Magisk and No_Verity) for years and wanted to go back to Oxygen, so I downloaded OnePlus5Oxygen_23_OTA_068_all_2006012224_c7a6016 and updated my TWRP to 3.4.0.0. I followed the instructions - took a TWRP backup, flashed the Magisk uninstaller, did a full wipe (dalvik-cache, cache, system, vendor and data) and then tried to flash the ROM. I got an error due to the compatibility file. So, I tried to restore my TWRP backup and am now getting bootloops.
The instructions say I have to remove the compatibility file on my device, but I can't because of the bootloops.
Can anyone please help me to either get my TWRP backup successfully running or successfully flash Oxygen 10?
Thank you for any help!
