Installed full 3.2.8, help with xposed?

So I wont say I tried everything but have been reading and trying solutions and they havent worked for me. Maybe someone can point me in a different right direction. So far I clean installed 3.2.8(twice btw), I'm fastbooting into twrp 3.0.2-1, flashed supersu 2.78 SR4 and flashed xposed framework v87.
Sometimes xposed framework v87 flashes in twrp and when I open xposed installer it says xposed framework is not installed. I attempt to then unintstall and try again and sometimes it fails in twrp with this message "cp: cant create '/system/xposed.prop':Read-only file system". I attached a screenshot. I'm also running xposed installer 3.1.1, also tried 3.0.1 by dvdandroid. Any suggestions?

Have you tried Magisk and Systemless Xposed?

Are you asking if I tried it in the past on my onplus3? I didnt see anyone trying it now with 3.2.8 so I didnt think of it.

I'm using it on 3.2.8 currently and all works well so far.
Here's how I did it: Clean flashed 3.2.8 using sideload with official recovery, then booted twrp-3.0.2-1 (from twrp.me), flashed Magisk v9 and flashed the phh-superuser. After booting into android, installed phh's SuperUser from Playstore, and installed Magisk Manager, then installed Xposed systemless arm64 sdk23 using the inbuilt downloader (or use the zip on the thread).

Thanks it all worked and went green except when I tried to download the systeless arm64 sdk23 from within magisk manager. I ended using a test1 version and it went through. Now I wasnt even planning on using magisk but how are you using magisk? When I used it before it was for android pay but I thought that all broke.

Installing xposed breaks SafetyNet anyways and I have no use of Android pay or Pokemon Go etc.
But, with magisk I can install and mod system files without making changes in the system partition like dpi, Viper, SystemUI mods etc. I really like it for the ease of that.

I have installed Xposed on 3.2.8 with a success from the beginning. Steps I've taken:
1. Dirty flashing full zip OOS 3.2.8.
2. Flashing systemless SuperSU from Chainfire (you have to:
Code:
echo SYSTEMLESS=true >> /data/.supersu
for systemless).
3. Flashing Xposed v87-test version, which now disappeared from dl-xda.xposed.info/framework/sdk23/arm64/
4. Flashing ElementalX 0.28.
I was upgrading from 3.2.6.

OxygenOS 3.2.7 with v87.1 Magisk version installed. Got stuck at boot animation when dirty flashing to oos 3.2.8. Any ideas? Is there compatibility problem with xposed modules?

I would use a newer recovery, twrp-3.0.2-23-oneplus3 is the latest and I've had zero issues with it. I uploaded it to drive vs searching for it. Next, as stated, install Xposed via the app, version 3.0.1 by dvdandroid is what I'm using and after selecting arm64 api23 , granting root, it installs, reboot and done.

Magisk + Phh Superuser does not work in F2FS.

I tested most Nougat custom roms. (except Oxygen 4.0.x)
However, none of them worked with Magisk + Phh Superuser. (can't get root access)
(data,cache filesystem : F2FS)
anyone else?
please help...

It worked on Sultan's CM13. (MM)

Magisk v9 + Phh was working fine a month ago when I was using CM14.1.
Don't know which custom roms you were using but many of them have root already included, so you'll have to remove the SU that's included in the ROM before you Magisk + Phh.
Order I've done it in the past:
1. Flash ROM
2. Flash GAPPS (if necessary)
3. Flash unSU Script link
4. Flash Magisk and Phh
5. Wipe Cache/Dalvik (just a habit and a damn good one)
and hopefully you know the rest of the steps.

Magisk v9 works fine with oxygen 3.2.8 (blue spark kernel and data and cache f2fs), but WiFi stops working if I flash v10.2.
Does someone know why? Thanks in advance

My config is a 4.0.1 OOS + 10.2 magisk + phh by topjohnwu v2. Working good so I dunno why you have some issues when we have same phones :/

Mine works with Open 10 beta and did you install the phh superuser app?

This problem occurs with custom ROMs. other than Oxygen 4.0.x.

Yes, installed the phh superuser app. I've been using phh since MM.

I read in another thread that on F2FS only the normal phh SuperUser works. I haven't tried it myself though. SuperSU has occasional issues on F2FS as well, irrespective of the ROM (OOS or Lineage based).

I have Magisk and Magisk's phh's superuser on 4.0.1 on F2FS (data partition). Using eng.stk's v11 TWRP, I:
1. Flashed OOS 4.0.1
2. Booted to system, installed some apps
3. Flashed Magisk 10.2, then topjohnwu's r2 phh superuser
4. Boot to system
All works fine.

Okay. In the main Magisk thread someone recently mentioned that phh's r259 was working on DU on OP3. Could give that a bash

Thanks for the information. i'll try it.

I think it's been well known for a while that phh superuser does not like F2FS. Since like August according to the topjohnwu phh superuser thread.

Well is it really too hard to explain your problem in proper sentences? So you wanted to root your phone. What did you use? Magisk? SuperSU? Which version? I can't help you if you don't provide information..

I have the same problem. Neither SuperSu nor Magisk works.

supersu not working please help

Use SuperSu 2.82

2.82 works fine for me! Many thanks!

My Steps For Stock OB17 Zip *Same Steps for Magisk V12 Or SuperSu V2.82*
Code:
Flash latest TWRP From Blu_Spark V35 Or Stock TWRP
Format Data Reboot TWRP
Wipe All
Copy [URL="http://downloads.oneplus.net/oneplus-3/oneplus_3_oxygenos_openbeta_17/"]OB17[/URL], [URL="https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=25000"]TWRP V35[/URL], [URL="http://www.supersu.com/download"]SuperSU V2.82[/URL] To Internal Storage
Flash OB17
Select Flash IMG, Install TWRP Reboot TWRP (So Stock Rom Doesn't Replace With Stock Recovery)
Wipe Cache/Dalvik
Flash SuperSU
Reboot = Profit
*Optional*
Take A Backup Of Rooted Boot IMG (If You Flash A Custom Kernel And Run Into Issues You Can Restore Rooted Boot IMG With Ease)
Flash Kernel Of Choice (Beware Because Of No Source Code And Kernel Changes Might Be Some Issues With Custom Kernels)

TO root latest beta an stable version you can follow this guide:

Flashing SuperSU doesn't root my device

Hello everyone,
I have the Xiaomi Redmi 5A.
Currently I am running Official Pixel Experience ROM (8.1.0, oreo) https://forum.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-redmi-5a/development/rom-pixel-experience-t3801702 on it. It so happens that when I try to flash SuperSU latest zip, the flashing goes fine but the device doesn't get rooted on checking in a root checker app and also no SuperSU app comes in the app drawer after flashing. I am not sure why this happens. But flashing magisk roots the device. Why not SuperSU?
In the Pixel Experience ROM thread they told to use vendor TWRP and not the Official TWRP but even on vendor TWRP I don't get root access after flashing SuperSU...
Previously I was using Unofficial Lineage OS (14.1, nougat) https://forum.xda-developers.com/xi.../unofficial-lineage-os-14-1-redmi-5a-t3773985 on my device. In Lineage OS when I flash SuperSU I get root access and also the SuperSU app comes in the app drawer. Why not in Pixel Experience?
Is the kernel responsible for this?
Is it something related to "mount"?
I come across this "mount" word in TWRP but I'm not sure what does this mean...
In TWRP while flashing SuperSU I saw "ramdisk restore failed, aborting". What does that mean?
Also is it related to SuperSU being a system-less root software and magisk being a system-based one?
Please help me... It's driving me nuts!:crying:
P.S. I know magisk is better but I want SuperSU, so don't suggest me to use magisk and forget SuperSU.:laugh:
Thanks.

Hello,
I don't know exactly what you are encountering but SuperSU should work on this ROM and run fine. I ran this ROM before and SuperSU works fine. I now switched to Magisk because I need ViPER4Android to work on Oreo.
Unless you are running a Treble based ROM, that is a different story. If you are running a Treble based ROM, please refer to this https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=76937637&postcount=24 thread to get root working.
CONTINUE TO READ IF YOU ARE NOT RUNNING A TREBLE BASED ROM,
I need to get some things straight. Android with version 6.0 (Marshmallow) and above (should) and (only) run systemless mode (including SuperSU). I came across a thread and read that root with Marshmallow and above would not work without patching bootloader and make system unmodified.
SuperSU and Magisk are almost the same. Magisk just offers extra module repository and SuperSU just offers root. SuperSU works both in system mode and systemless mode but Magisk only works in systemless mode.
This might help you:
- Do a clean flash (Wipe System, Data and Cache)
- Try using this latest version of SuperSU: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/supersu/2014-09-02-supersu-v2-05-t2868133 (SuperSU v2.82 SR5 released by Chainfire himself)
- If it doesn't work then something might be wrong with the boot partition.
- If you really need root and SuperSU REALLY DOESN'T WORK, (spoiler) try Magisk...

Thanks man.
I'll try that for sure but later i.e., doing a clean flash and trying to flash SuperSU again...
I'll let you know once I've done that.
Thanks again man!!!:angel:

UL-ASUS_I001_1-ASUS-18.0210.2201.211-1.1.1-user.zip

After updating to this firmware I lost root. So I tried as usual to flash via fastboot twrp-3.6.0_11-0-I001D.img and then in recovery magisk 23.0 (24.1 makes twrp crash). When I reeboot into system (after clearing dalvik/cache) magisk is not installed, although the flashing of the zip in recovery was flawless. i even reflashed the stock rom+magisk (losing the twrp recovery) but no way magisk was there.
With the previous rom versions nevere had this problem. Is it a trick og the new rom to prevent from rooting? Any idea? Suggestions?

so...basically, you are unable to root using either the TWRP or simply Magisk?
What version of Magisk were you using?
I am thinking of updating but I need root access so the situation you are facing is worrisome to me.

I updated to the latest version and as always installed magisk to the inactive slot before reboot. Update was fine and root intact.
I was on magisk 24.1
