Not working here. always asks to install the driver after reboot.
To get it working all I did was root my phone, installed viper4android.
After opening the app it asked to install the drivers I let it, then rebooted
everything worked just fine.
Viper4Android needs your phone to be on Permissive Kernel.
Working!!! Ty everyone will post a link and how-to install guide in my thread

you probably forgot to set your selinux to permissive. download selinux mode changer here on XDA and the u'll be able to install the driver
Anyone know how to get convolver to work with CM 12.1 nightly on z00A?
Hi, can somebody confirm that Viper4android works without issues on the original rom?, i mean by this that after a reboot the app starts itself, as in my case I have to start the app to get its functionality working on my player
Thanks
is viper4android safe? It asks for a lot of permmisons
yeah viper4android is safe i have been running it since my galaxy s3 and never looked backed best app i have ever come across as far as boosting audio quality.
also guys having problems with not hearing any differance i had the same problem at first then i found a thread in general with a modified audio_policy.config file i had to replace with the original one then v4a worked a charm also kernel has to be permissive too so try it again with the modified audio_policy if you gave up because i nearly did
Not really working for me. I did the se permissive then installed v4a then installed driver and reboot. Now I'm using it mainly for Spotify and it works sometimes but then sometimes it will stop working unless I unplug the headphones and plug back in or sometimes it just stop working at all
Download the viper 4 android guitardedhero bought in my Zenfone max working.
Dear i dont know how to get rid of these screen overlays, they dont even me download any thing or let my browser access the my files, photoes etc. It asks update permission but i dont get to understand how else i can, after disabling all the overlays. I will be awaiting for any brief & right solution.
Are you using Xposed? If so, look up the "NoOverlayWarning" module in the repo.

Hey guys. Im new to this whole android rooting world, so i have a problem.
I rooted a phone with instructions i got from needrom.com.
I tried to flash it first with flash tool, but it always stops to an error.
Don't really know what im doing wrong.
So, anyway. I got now twrp installed, phone is rooted and magisk manager installed partly.
Reason i wanted to root this, is to spoof at pokemon go, so my disabled daughter can enjoy the game too, as my son and i am already.
But, as you know pokemon go wont work with rooted device straight, so i wanted to install magisk manager to hide root from pokemon go.
But phone wont flash to magisk manager version 14. It gets error too. With its own installer, and through twrp recovery mode too.
I was able to flash version 12.5 with no problems at all. But then i tried 13.5, and it gets the same error too.
Now i dont know what do i do. I can't make pokemon go to work at all on that device anymore. I tried to unroot from SuperSU, but then pokemon go said that:
This device OS or software is not compatible with Pokemon GO.
So i restored a backup with twrp. Its now rooted again.
I would like to get the Magisk manager to work properly of course. Please help me guys.

I would not give up so soon. At least try a clean installation of ROM and addonsu in one twrp session.

https://download.lineageos.org/extras you can download it here just choose 14.1 between the 3 arm arm64 x68 depending on your device. flashing lineageOS nightlies doesnt automatically root your device

he said he already did that.
why can no one give a real answer to this issue. Installed the correct extras, says root for adb and apps in developers mode, but will not give root access to apps that need root, nor can you remove/rename system apps as permission denied. No prompts, no questions, just denied. Adaway will just refuse to open saying the device needs to be rooter. SuperSU says that Su is occupied, and flashing it from TWRP causes a boot loop.
It was a lot better when it was part of the rom, why the decision to remove it? all it causes is headache and people reverting away from the rom.

We are talking about an unofficial LineageOS? Maybe you should talk with the person that built it.
any solution ?
Me 2
I am having the same issue.
I installed the su extra package using TWRP 3.2 .
I now have the "root" and "manage root acesses" menus under development options.
I enabled "apps and adb" option.
When I type "su" in any terminal app (including the built in one), I get "permission denied"
With root access set to "disabled", when I type "su" I get "command not found".
With root access set to "apps and adb", if I run a root checker app or try to use any app that requires root, I do not get a prompt to allow root access, and I do not get any notifications from Privacy Guard, either.
The root checker apps all say that I do not have root.
Even after running apps that should request root, when I look in the "manage root accesses" menu, it says that no apps have requested root yet.
What gives? I am really trying to use the built in root access features, I do not want to use SuperSU. Partly because SuperSU did not work either (same behavior as above), and because I don't like SuperSU's bloated code and proprietary implementation.
I really hope we can get this working, If I can provide any other info to anyone who wants to help, let me know.
I am seeing a lot of posts about this in relation to Lineage 14.1 and 15.1 and roms based on those builds. The issue is apparent on multiple different devices, so I suspect it is an issue with the base lineage source somewhere. I havn't looked at the source, though, so I don't really know... All I do know is that this is very frustrating.

I bet you have installed unofficial lineageOS. On all my officially supported devices root works as expected.

Essentially saying 'it works great for me, you must be doing something wrong' isn't actually a very practical troubleshooting approach. While there is definitely the possibility that I am doing something wrong, troubleshooting will reveal if I have made a mistake and will also benefit the loads of other people posting about similar or same issues. That's why we have forums, right?
You bet wrong, do I win anything?
Like I mentioned, I have experienced this issue with both Lineage 14.1, 15.1, as well as unofficial builds and ROMs based on Lineage.
It is hit or miss, in most cases I just tried flashing different ROMs on my devices until I find one that has working built-in root.
I had a lot of issues installing the official builds on my 'bacon' device, I eventually went with resurrection remix instead. That was the only Oreo build that built-in root packages worked with.
In the case of my 'klte' (g900v variant), I installed 7 different Oreo based ROMs. Since there is no official Lineage build for the 'klte' (which is sad, it's a great device), I was using all unofficial builds in the case of this device. They were all based on Lineage, or just unofficial Lineage builds focused on supporting the klte. I couldn't get the built in root functionally working on any of these builds (Lineage unofficial 14.1 & 15.1, Havoc OS, etc). If anyone thinks it will help, I can elaborate further on which packages and versions I used...
Rooted lineageos not recognized
I have exactly the same issue with my Samsung S3 I9300.
I flashed it with lineageos using CWM and thereafter I flashed with the extra armsu. I cannot see anything I could have done wrong. However, neither Titanium nor a root checker recognizes the rooted state. As far as I can see there are quite many having the same issue. Unfortunately most replies are just best guesses like flash with TRWP or add gapps (the katter didn't solve the oroblem either. I am not an expert but I successfully got rid of extremely persisting boot loops most probably caused by Magix which I avoided therefore with this try to root the lineageos.

So what's your goal? Just moaning or asking for help? In the 2nd case you should provide more details like filenames and procedures.
And yes. Root works well on my S3.

Yes you are right. Just moaning is not an option. Here are the details:
1. Flashed with lineage-14.1-20181025-nightly-i9300-signed.zip using CWM
2. Installed Titanium (with "not rooted" as result of course)
3. Installed addonsu-15.1-arm-signed.zip using CWM and changed the setting to "apps and ADB" , an option which I didn't have before - however, with no effect on Titanium
4. Checked root status with "Root Checker" which resulted in "not rooted"
5. Installed open_gapps-arm-7.1-pico-20181120.zip using CWM (because someone suggested it as solution) - with no effect.
Now to the observed "irregularities":
1. The installation of the "addonsu" which I repeated had a "Warning: No file_contexts." but ended successfully
2. The reboot metioned: " Root access possibly lost. Fix?" which I replied with "Yes fix root (/system/xbin/su)"
Possibly worth to be mentioned: Titamium tries with command "system/bin/su". I've checked that su resides in both directories bin and xbin with identical size
In writing this I realized the version mismatch 14.1 lineageos and 15.1 addonsu. I uninstalled addonsu 15.1 and installed addonsu 14.1 instead and THIS SOLVED THE PROBLEM
Many thanks for your help.

Ha! For a 14.1 Rom you need a 14.1 addonsu
For future readers:
There are two versions of lineage os root images, 32 and 64 bit. Please check that you installed correct one, this way I solved this problem!

Solution for what? I think lineageOS people found the best way to ship a non-pre-rooted ROM with native root solution.
NO ROOT Access
