I just got the ota on a new phone. One
my old one I was running pure nexus with systemless root with echo commands
On this one I'm non rooted on N
My question is, is there a way to systemless root and all without losing data? I saw a post about the CF auto root not wiping data. Can I run that, then run the unroot, then systemless root?
Are you sure CF auto root doesn't install systemless root? And why do you need systemless over system root?

I forgot to add that the only reason I want this is for the extended location menu in the status bar quick settings

You should check on systemless and Android pay. I think even that breaks it.

It wasn't breaking it about a month ago. As long as you do the echo commands it had been working for me.
Systemless root works fine with TWRP 3.0.2-2 and SuperSU 2.76 +
Will not wipe data, provided that your bootloader is already unlocked.

No idea on that. I used fastboot flash recovery twrp. Boot into recovery, install superSU. Pretty easy but need a computer to flash TWRP.

I tried the systemless root method several times.. None of it works.
If my superSU app says I'm rooted, Android pay doesn't work. Only way to get it working again is if I UNROOT using the superSU tool.

Root with the systemless root method, and delete "/su/xbin_bind". Android Pay will work. However, you might break root compatibility with older apps that haven't been updated.

Can confirm this allowed me to add my CC again, have not yet tried paying yet. I have 2.66 beta, and using AdAway, TiBu, and Greenify. So far no issues.
am I deleting the whole SU folder? or just the XBIN_BIND?

yes, mine definitely works.
FYI, greenify breaks it, just having it installed for me (even if disabled)
adaway does not have to though, long as you flash the systemless hosts zip file before installing and applying it
Hi gus,
So I have a little issue I want clarified.
Is there a way to temp root my Nexus 5x? I am receiving this phone tomorrow and I have titanium backup data from my old phone. But since I want the stock updates I don't want to fully stay rooted. I just wanted to block some files in hosts, restore my data and unroot.
Is this possible?
I heard you can just delete superSU and all will be good, is that true? If so how do I do that?
Cheers
The SuperSU app has a 'Complete UnRoot' option in settings, I've personally used it a couple of times. Also, you can install the systemless root version of SuperSU, otherwise, UnRooting may soft brick your phone (as you change the system partition).
You need to read up on systemless root. It will allow you to take OTAs while rooted. There are some stipulations so read the threads carefully.

You have to unlock the bootloader too. Unblocking the bootloader will wipe your device.
As a rule of thumb, I always unlock bootloader on day one of purchasing my devices. (mostly Nexus or OP so far). This way you avoid potentially losing data.
Or u can download systemless xposed which will allow to turn on and off to use Android pay

root (access) is obtained via apps like SuperSU
xposed has nothing to do with root access - it is an additional framework allowing for low level modifications (like amplify, etc)
unlocking bootloader is always the first step, from there you can flash supersu (which is NOT just an APK file).
there's a number of threads about it that can explain it better than i.

Ok thanks you. I see the threads in OP3 xda forum.
One more question : is the warrantly lost after rooting ?
If so, can you post a little about the initial setup? If you want to change kernels do you have to resort back to stock each time?
I understand you need to be completely stock when you install it the first time, I assume with an unlocked bootloader?

I use Magisk on all Nougat roms. I haven't had any luck with "Chainfires" SuperSU v2.78 or any other version for that matter. I think the set up requires a couple more steps that just flashing a SuperSu zip like the one we are all used to but the benefits that come with Magisk are worth it and it just plain works. And if you use the Magisk manager you can also toggle SElinux on and off and turn root on and off for apps that require no root.. I have been on board since N hit and we has no working root accept for this, and once I used it I was hooked.

Yea no prob.
What I did was use the nexus root toolkit to unlock my bootloader (replacement phone) then followed this guide
http://blog.meltedpeng.com/easiest-way-to-install-systemless-root-and-xposed-on-your-nexus-5/
But I replaced the su with the phh super user from magisk.
I also did Franco kernel.
If I need to explain more let me know.
hie guys i am actually new to magisk and using this for pokemon go, my phone is nexus 6p and running android 7.1.1. Everything is working fine as i have checked on root checker pro, I am having some problems and i hope i will get some help here
1.) i am not able to move any app to system, error showing is 'can not remount system'
2.) when i restore any back up it restores till 53% and then stucks in bootloop
3.) i am not able to install any update even if i hide my root. tried flashfire also
and sorry for bad english

I flashed Magisk v 12, but not showing up in the Magisk manager app.
I'm on Google Pixel ROM(rooted), with SuperSU.
I thought that the installation guide on the Magisk site said that Magisk would over write SuperSU.
Whats your setup, and what process did you use to get Magisk working?

If the ROM does not come with root, reflash ROM and​ then magisk.

Magisk does not overwrite supersu, if it detects supersu it does not install it's own superuser version. It continues to allow the system use supersu.
If you want to use magisk and use magisk's su, then you'd need to use a rom that does not come rooted and then flash magisk.

Thanks for the explanation.
Finally got Magisk installed by removing SuperSU, reflashing the boot image (stock), then Magisk - all good!

A lot of apps won't work if they detect root, or if the SafetyNet won't pass. Android Pay is one of them, but a lot of banking apps, Pokemon Go, Mario Run, etc won't work.

The modules are worth it. I only use a few for the camera, like 60fps video or EIS, and they're quite nice.
None of the default locations work for me.
Make sure you install SuperSU as systemless, and do Su/xbin I believe.

SuperSu is indeed systemless. However, BusyBox is saying that it isn't. Very strange.

Definitely Busybox or SUhide for now. Installed SR1 Pixel Fix over SR3, and SUhide wouldn't open or install, Busybox would install. After installing Busybox, installed SU SR3 and SUhide. The Busybox install disappeared. Tried BB to other directories that would allow install with SR1 Pixel Fix and it still disappeared when installing SR3/SUhide. I'd rather have SUhide as Android Pay and other apps I need hidden from root are working.

Experiencing the same thing. Can you check if yours also has Internal Storage at 0MB when in TWRP?
Also TWRP could not mount /data and is unable to find crypto footer
Process of install: Supersu > Suhide > Busybox
Had the same issue after installing busy box. I had to flash a factory image and re-root.
I already reflashed my factory image. This solved the problem. I haven't rerooted yet but at least Android Studio sees my phone now.

I assume you all used meefik busybox. I installed it about a week ago, and it appeared fine. Upon reboot, I had lost root/suhide and was unable to get back into twrp. I ended up having to reflash the factory image. I am just waiting for a compatible version of busybox/supersu/suhide at this point and not installing busybox since the other two are working ok.
