Unrooting P2 with phh Superuser? - Lenovo P2 Questions & Answers

I am running Android 7.0.0 on my P2 rooted with phh Superuser.
However, I want to switch to SuperSU, which as per my understanding (which is very limited in this matter) will happen after I properly uninstall Superuser.
I have researched quite a bit and found out that phh Superuser does not have an inbuilt unroot option unlike SuperSU.
I also flashed the SuperSU .zip file hoping it would delete the current Superuser, but in vain.
I tried to delete su and busybox from /bin and /xbin using Root Explorer but could not find those files in that location.
So I am really helpless now so as what to do in order to have SuperSU installed on my phone.

Try this:
UnSU Script
Flash in Custom Recovery

Thanks for replying.
I flashed the .zip you suggested. It deletes the phh Superuser app but does not unroot.
I can tell this because when I flash the SuperSU .zip and install the app, upon launching it says su binary occupied.
And when I reinstall phh Superuser, it works as it did before.
So I'm afraid, it has not solved my problem.

Correct, this will only help with removing Root successfully.
You'll then need to root via SuperSu or Magisk or phhSuperuser.
I've made a post about Magisk rooting here that you can follow, this will use Magisk Manager as your Superuser manager.
In that post I mention flashing your original boot.img which will remove any instances of SU you have previously installed if the zip I provided in my previous post does not work for you.

Thanks, I will try that.

Rooted but can't use superuser permissions

Hi, I rooted my G3 after downgrading to KitKat. I downloaded the Chuppa Rom and installed it successfully. I've flashed a recovery successfully too. I've got a SuperUs app but it doesn't seem to work. When I go into Titanium Backup and ES file explorer and when they ask for superuser permissions and I click 'grant', they say that there was an error or that there's no root permissions given.
How do I proceed?
download supersu from the play store.
Had the same problem.
It was solved by flashing the zip version of supersu.
It's in supersu thread (CWM / TWRP / MobileODIN installable ZIP)

[Fix] [Guide] Custom ROM RR mm Magisk!! pokego confirmed working!

To summarize all I added to the normal stock d850 instruction for magisk is the setting to uninstall the su binary in super su which takes away root from the rom (directories I beleive), then the full unroot and not flashing the manager instead installing the apk version.
**I did this on the normal official ressurection remix mm for d850**
Walkthrough
**Make sure to make a backup and of course I'm not responsible for bricked devices if you follow this guide with the normal stock d850 magisk install you should be golden besides known bug on bottom**
First use the setting to uninstall su (the binary) then the full unroot
I flashed this bump after flashing magisk and phh superuser 17
http://www.mediafire.com/file/ddq9j99pdy984pc/MR_Bump.zip
**Remember to not update the su binary**
When done flashing magisk, phh superuser 17 and bump **DO NOT flash the manager** (you will trip safeboot). Reboot get phh superuser, say no to updating the su binary, Then you have to find the apk version of magisk manager install that!
Then your good to go
Please note I have not tried other custom ROMs with su built in not sure if all have uninstall su in supersu but if that's the case you have to manually delete the su directories. Other than that they should all work.
**[BuG] The APN doesn't have data connection when the phone starts or is in sleep for awhile. Easy fix is toggleing the airplane mode APN data works within a second**
Sorry for the grammer and whatnot just trying to deliver information
Just in case

Magisk in Oneplus 3 with CM14.1?

Actually i want to play Pokemon go on CM. So i'm trying Magisk.
I followed the instruction here and tried with both [Magisk] phh's SuperUser and SuperSU (systemless)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445
But both did not work.
Anybody tried Magisk in OP3 with CM14.1?
Is it possible for magisk to work on CM?

I was running Magisk V9 with phh Super SU on CM14.1 (late November official nightly) and it was passing safetynet so I know that works, but I never actually tried launching PoGo.

CM14.1 has system root built-in. You have to remove it before you install Magisk and Phh SU. You need unSU http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63615067.
After you flash the ROM, flash unSU zip. Reboot to recovery again. Flash Magisk and flash Phh SU.

There's a few settings you have to enable in Magisk Manager (can't Remeber what they were off the top of my head) and reboot your phone.
You also have to download Phh SU from play store before you can gain access to Magisk Manager
Thanks it worked.

How to use banking apps on Rooted Devices

Anyone know a solution to use banking apps on Rooted Android N since Xposed is not yet available?
The solution is called Magisk ?
After installing, you have at first to enable Magisk Hide, then add the banking apps to the hide list.
Magisk would also be useful for many reasons: survives to OTA (because the system partition is untouched), supports modules like in Xposed (and Xposed too for Android 5.0-6.0), provides a built-in root manager (if you're not a SuperSU user)...
I love Magisk.
To add to the above post, you can't use Magisk for root unless you completely remove SuperSU as your rooting method. You can achieve this by either flashing a cleaner zip or dirty flashing your rom, followed by flashing Magisk.

The easiest way to ensure that you have removed SuperSU is to dirty flash your current ROM, then immediately flash Magisk without exiting TWRP. Your phone will remain rooted next time you boot up, though you'll have to re-grant root permissions to each of your root-enabled apps.
Here's what you need to flash in the following order:
1) Stock OOS 4.0.3
2) Magisk 11.1
Simply boot into TWRP, flash 1, wipe cache/dalvik, flash 2, then reboot.

I haven't tried flashing SuperSU after Magisk, but I'm pretty sure they aren't compatible.
It will not. Use Magisk or SuperSU, not both.
What about pre-rooted roms?
How can we remove SuperSU and install Magisk?
Flash this unSu script (http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3931994&d=1478779893) and Magisk afterwards.

How do you install Magisk on Oneplus 3 OOS 4.1.3

I tried to install magisk v12 zip but it always fails but says to install supersu soon after. I did that but when i installed magisk manager it said there's no MagiskSU installed and Safety net did not pass as well! Then i tried to uninstall supersu and magisk and flash magisk v12 again but same result again. I tried find how to install MagiskSU online but i can't find any thread about this issue. My aim of installing Magisk is to use MagiskHide for snapchat. Can someone help me pls.:crying:
Are you on SuperSU at the moment?
You will need to unroot using the SuperSU app (That's what I did) before flashing magisk zip.
Secondly, I had trouble with SuperSU + Magisk so I used phh superuser to get it working. I also needed magisk to hide root from snapchat and another banking app and I am able to do so easily.
So, in short,
1. Uninstall SuperSU
2. Flash magisk zip in recovery
3. Flash phh superuser in recovery (People say its optional but I do it anyway)
4. Reboot and benefit
Can you send me a link to download the phh superuser file you used please. When you say uninstall do you mean full unroot? What did you use to uninstall supersu? https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63615067&postcount=2459
Magisk v12 will auto install root when no root is detected, so u can just clean flash ur rom and install magisk v12 after it, it will auto root
@mharis05 nowadays Phh's Superuser is not "optional": it's unsupported and replaced by the integrated MagiskSU since Magisk v10: look at the official thread, it's declared obsolete.
It would get device in trouble, even if MagiskSU is disabled.
 @Bradl79 neither the clean flash is a right way, because:
1) If you're intending a system wipe, it's not resolutive because Magisk is OTA-survival.
2) If you're intending a data wipe, it's an useless waste of time... and data!
You have to run the following zip files: Magisk official uninstaller and UnSU to be sure you've not rooted device in any way.
Then to stay quiet, do a Cache and Dalvik/ART wipe.
At this point, try to reflash Magisk.
I tried that but time and time again when i try to uninstall that SUPERSU it says to flash default boot.img to complete the process. AND Installation "FAILED" Flash Supersu immediately. I did that but still no magiskSU.
At this point try to wipe system and cache/ART, then reflash OOS.
After doing that, go with Magisk.
