Only AEX and GApps but still "Company Portal" says Rooted - Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus Questions & Answers

Dear All,
I have installed installed AEX 5.5 along with GApps. There is no Magisk installed. Basically the device in completely unrooted from my perspective.
Still, when I open "Company Portal" app, it says that the device is rooted.
Is it something related to the "test-keys" , "release-keys" ?
If yes, then how can I get AEX with "release-keys" ?
Please help.
Regards,
Amit

xposed now working on tab s3

A modified xposed installer and framework for nougat is now available thanks to the Purify os team and rovo
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/xposed-android-nougat-sdk-25-arm64-t3639221
Follow the link above.
1. Make backups, twrp/titanium
2. Install the modified xposed installer first, must be done first!
https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/?id=13191#downloads
Use the top one on the list it may get updated
3. Next download the modified xposed framework from Purify here
http://fastkit.org/xposed/
Follow the links.... SDK24 for nougat 7.0..... Then download the xposed version 87 model... Flash from twrp
Again make sure you fully back up, it all went fine for me, but sometimes these things don't go right.
Plenty of posts in the linked forum but a bit of a jumble as usual, all with varied results, but the above will work for us.
Not sure how many modules are usable yet, I have one working so I know it does work.
Which are you using, and what would you like to use?

Status bar sleep.. Working
Status bar download progress.... Working (mostly)
Status bar cpu temp.. Not working
Status bar cpu frequency.. Not working
Any of the status bar theming such as wanams xtouchwiz would be good
Also xinternalsd was useful but not working
Can you change aspect ratio yet?

Not something I would normally do, is there a particular module you use for that?
It's been such a long time since I came across this, being able to adjust screen ratio and dpi on a per app basis. No real reason to now but with the 4:3 ratio on this tab, it'll be nice.
Also, been a while since I've used xbosed
does not work for me.. i get a recovery-boot loop and it does not start the system

I have been using it without problem for a while, but the versions used are crucial to success, I couldn't get the magisk systemless to work. Try going back to the beginning and make sure each download is correct, the method in the first post will work.
hmm.. but i need magisk :-/

Get it work with super su but installed OBBonSD does not work (with GTA, KotoR,...). Do you have any idea?
EDIT: Found a solution with http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.pyler.xinternalsd
I have followed the directions exactly and I tried twice to install xposed on my t825 rooted with magisk 14. No luck unfortunately. Has anybody been successful in installing it ??
If yes, could he share the methodology ?

had the same problem.. remove magisk and install superSU.. xposed do not work with magisk -.-' on this tablet..
Question, how do I remove xposed again?
Can I do it with the installer app, or do I need a special skript? Never used Xposed on Samsung before and I know everything works differently.
Hello,
Your experience : Do you have a "" Tab S3 SM-T825, Nougat 7.0, Root SuperSU "" on which you have installed Xposed.
1- Does Xposed work normally with different modules?
(No Bootloop or tablet block?)
2 - Which version xposed * .zip ?
3 - Which Version XposedInstaller _ *. Apk ?
Thank you
Cordially

Fairly old thread this, I have a T820, however I've made roms for both variants, the t825 thread is here,
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-tab-s3/development/rom-sm-t825-tweaked-t3769742
the earlier versions are nougat the latest 3.0 on are oreo both work fine, you'll find instructions in the thread, if changing to oreo you need to flash the oreo bootloader, through odin, if returning to nougat you need to flash the older nougat bootloader as they're not cross compatible.
Xposed works fine on both, xposed installer included after booting, start the xposed installer app and select install it picks the correct version.
Root is by magisk.

Hello Rorymc
Thanks for the answer and for the link SM-T825 TWEAKED, but I'm already Root with SuperSU + Dm-Verity with Rom ARA2 Nougat 7.0 and I just have to flash Xposed with TWRP.
So, I think I have to take Xposed.zip and Xposedinstaller APK from rovo89 in pure version without add and unmodified ?
I hope I'm not mistaken .....

Yes that's correct, just make sure you get the correct versions, if anything goes wrong just restore your backup.

Stock-based Nubia UI 5.0 v3.08 ✓Debloated ✓100% functional GApps ✓Magisk

Here you are my last modified ROM based on latest update v3.06. Now I can say that GApps are 100% functional, I tested near every Google app (Keep, Games, Movies, Earth, Maps...) and worked without any issues. How could I make this possible? This is a secret, but a friend help me
FEATURES:
- Removed some bloatware apps.
I am going to release soon a harder debloater to remove some other apps and in next versions maybe I will add Aroma.
- Magisk root manager.
You can use pay apps and others with this root manager.
- GApps completely functional.
As I said before, now they are working without issues.
I also made a little change and now notifications should appear correctly, without delays...
DOWNLOAD 3.06:
Mega -> https://goo.gl/BzdxBf
Yandex mirror -> https://yadi.sk/d/C0KmSl1o3N9Ygb
GDrive mirror -> https://goo.gl/4o1XZm
DOWNLOAD 3.08:
MEGA -> https://goo.gl/DD9v4s
DOWNLOAD 4.06:
GDrive: https://goo.gl/fMtzBm
INSTRUCTIONS:
1.- Wipes of data, cache and dalvik.
2.- Flash the ROM.
3.- Reboot.
4.- Enjoy!
CHANGELOG:
- 4.06 update
- New 4.06 base.
- Flashing script modified to avoid error if /system partition is formatted before installation.
- Magisk updated to latest version: 15.3 Core and 5.5.5 Manager.
- New custom settings header.
- Some little changes in build.prop
Maybe I forgot some other little things
IMPORTANT NOTES:
- If the flash process fails with some error, it's because you didn't follow the previous instructions, so you know... This won't happen in 4.06 now.
- If you are having trouble getting your Google account the first time, try again and be patient, it works.
- Remember to give all the permissions to GApps, to avoid problems.
- It probably will not pass the SafetyNet test, to pass it you just need to install the Universal SafetyNet Fix module.
CREDITS:
A lot of thanks to my friend Fransua1981, who helped me a lot with fixing the GApps' problem.

Of course, you only have to do the wipes that I said.
Good job !
how did you install magisk because me its a bootloop on the last version by twrp?
First of all thank you for your efforts and contribution.
I am still not sure if you are using 3rd Party Recovery or the OEM recovery to flash your rom.
I am very hesitate with my Z17 which has been flashed with 3rd Party Recovery and Rooted with SuperSU.
It has been revealed in reference to http://bbs.nubia.cn/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=1001481&highlight=root, the root will be lost after you wipe off data.
Assuming I use 3rd Party Recovery to flash your rom. SuperSU will be replaced by Magisk but the device is still not rooted after being wiped off data. and i cannot use the 3rd Party recovery to root the device as it will reinstall Supersu.
Please advise how to resolve this issue....
Thank you.

I don't understand you, but if you follow the guide to flash, you will have functional root with Magisk.
@ arceoxis : Thanks for your work.
Because I'm not able to unlock the bootloader and install TWRP, the only things I can do are Wipe user data and Do a factory reset with the stock recovery.
Is it sufficient to install your ROM ?
Can I flash your ROM with the stock recovery tools ?
Thanks

You have a guide with how to unlock bt and flash TWRP. You need TWRP to flash custom ROMs, stock recovery only can flash stock ROMs.

Thanks arceoxis, I know that guide... May be my configuration is "special" or my phone is "special" (or both) everything I tried doesn't work (see my last tests here).
I tried on 4 different machines (2 Win 8.1 x64 pro, XP pro, XP mediacenter and 2 linux (Mint Cinnamon)
fastboot always hangs on fastboot oem unlock...
I'm not sure it is possible to flash TWRP without unlock
I'll try again this evening (with the 3.06 stock) :
* factory reset (via parameters)
* wipe data, via stock recovery
* wipe to factory (I don't remember the exact item, I don't have the phone with me) via stock recovery
* flash the last 3.06 stock ROM
* "rewipe" (is it necessary ?)
... and try to unlock and flash TWRP again
<EDIT>
Done...
Parameters => reset to factory (add format user space)
reboot
reboot to stock recovery
wipe : user data and cache
reset to factory again
reboot
the phone started as a new one
install some applications (eg. firefox to have standard browser)
start adb session in administrative mode
unlock : ok
twrp : ok
restart the phone in normal mode : ok

I have successfully flashed your rom to my Z17 without issue with Gmail which I previously had. This is a good news. However the bad news are below
1. I cannot log in NUBIA ACCOUNT;
2. I installed ' Google News and Weather ' from Google Play Store. It requires me to check internet connection ( I know internet is connected) and nothing is coming.
3. I cannot install Bankwest (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=au.com.bankwest.mobile&hl=en) and it remind me that 'This app is incompatible with your device'. But I know the bankwest was successfully installed on my device previously.
Can you please investigate and advise?

Band locking for Nubia UI 5.0
Nubia z17 is best phone but in Nubia UI 5.0 Modem driver has Algorithm modified by Nubia Team which continuously change LTE band for best signal & best speed ,which is good only on paper and very good effort but practically not good because every time band change Data connection & VOLTE (HD) connection off & on so if you are calling then call drop & if you are in internet connection lost. So BAND Locking is must in settings for Nubia UI 5.0
At least in India without Band locking , i can not use Reliance JIO LTE it has band 3,5 & 40 , and NUBIA UI 5.0 change band 3 to 5 & 5 to 40 , or 3 to 40 any time continuously.
I use Network Signal Guru Application with ROOT ,
So if any nubia z17 users face this difficulty please use Network Signal Guru App with ROOT your phone.
I think Nubia team must give band locking option in setting in next update.
Please forward this problem to Nubia Team China.
Thanks

Only AEX and GApps but still "Microsoft Company Portal" app says Phone is Rooted

Only AEX and GApps but still "Microsoft Company Portal" app says Phone is Rooted
Dear All,
I have installed installed AEX 5.6 along with GApps. There is no Magisk installed. Basically the device in completely unrooted state from my perspective.
Still, when I open "Microsoft Company Portal" app, it says that the device is rooted.
There are threads which talks about scenario when Magisk is installed and then how to have Microsoft Company Portal in a way that it finds it unrooted.
But my scenario is completely different, just a plain AEX and GApps.
Is it something related to the "test-keys" , "release-keys" ?
If yes, then how can I get AEX with "release-keys" ?
Please help.
Regards,
Amit

Thank you faizauthar,
I understand that I need to use Magisk now. The reason for asking this question was earlier, just with AEX and GApps only, it used to work. Magisk was not needed.
May be, Microsoft updated the Root Detection algorithm in "Company Portal" app.

[UNITY] Various Fixes for the Moto G5/G5S [9+]

HUGE thanks to @giri45 for actually providing the fix!
What's this? ​
A Unity installer ensures that you can use this module with any kind of root solution (as long as it supports init.d)! If you have Magisk, flash the module through the Magisk Manager, but if you don't have Magisk, just flash the module through TWRP. When you want to uninstall the module, flash it again in Magisk Manager or TWRP.
As for the module itself, it provides a fix for LiveDisplay/Night Light on the Moto G5/G5S for anyone running an AOSP-based ROM running Android 9 or higher, and enables Camera2 API + EIS if you wish so.
Do NOT attempt to install this on other devices, or ROMs based on Android <9! Device and Android version checks have been applied to make sure this module will not install on incompatible devices. This module assumes that you are using the latest stock Oreo firmware (including bootloader, GPT and etc.)! Do not report issues if you are not on the latest firmware.
Tested ROMs:
Havoc OS 2.2
Pixel Experience 9.0
AOSPExtended 6.3
crDroid 5.0
Known issues:
Fix doesn't work on Nougat firmware. You must have fully flashed the stock ROM/flashed it via OTA, for this fix to work.
Downloads:
Download from Magisk Repo.​
Flash via Magisk Manager or TWRP. Make sure you have a root solution which supports init.d!
Thanx for trying to fix this. Unfortunately it's not working on my xt1794 running AospExtented. First try flashing through twrp failed, the updaterscript didn't recognize my phone (correctly), then installing as magisk module, but no night light..

That's really weird. Installs fine and works on PE, installs fine but doesn't work on ViperOS, and now doesn't work on AOSPExtended.
Could you try providing installation logs located in the Internal storage?
Have you also tried manually replacing the files? If that works, then it's not a problem with the ROM...

I'm planning on upgrading everything except bootloader and gpt.bin, then I'll try your fix again and report back:good:
Edit: OK, done. I did flash bootloader, did not erase userdata and did not flash stock recovery. Good news is: system feels alot snappier - not so good news is that fix is still not working for me..
For anyone with similar issue: use cf.lumen instead and don't forget to thank the dev

That's weird... One thing I know that is that this fix doesn't work on Nougat firmware.
Working flawlessly on crDroid 9.
Thank you devs!

Did you flash everything? Try fully flashing Stock Oreo via Fastboot and then install TWRP, custom ROM and this fix.

Installing Magisk on Galaxy Tab S T700 Running LineageOS 17.1

I've searched XDA and tried all the suggestions, but I still can't get Magisk to open on my Tab S. It is rooted with Lineage 17.1. I downloaded Magisk V26.1, renamed it to a zip file and installed with TWRP. I uninstalled and installed 3 times and still no luck. I also cleared cache and storage. There is no hidden version of Magisk. Anything else I can try? Maybe an older version of Magisk? Should I try wiping Dalvik cache using TWRP and if so, before or after installing Magisk?
Thanks!
Tom
try magisk canary or magisk delta

As you say it's rooted already why do you need to install Magisk 26 again at all, the current version already is 26.2 btw.

Good question. I'm a noobie and thought that Magisk provided more features or capabilities. But maybe I've been wasting my time on something I don't need!

Thanks, but it looks like canary only supports 64 bit systems. What is the difference between delta and the official Magisk? And if my tablet is already rooted, do I even need Magisk?
You don't need the Magisk app any longer. But honestly, as long as it is rooted I simply wouldn't touch it anyway. Just leave as it is.
The newer Magisk version is rather suitable for Android 13 and younger. Doesn't need to bother you and for < A12.

Now I remember why I was trying to install Magisk I can't install Netflix from the play store (message says will not run on my device). But I found some comments here (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...m-t705-sm-t800-sm-t800-sm-p600.4270943/page-6) who used Magisk to get it to run:

I installed magisk v23 via twrp (renamed apk to zip first),
rebooted, used magisk modules liboemcrypto disabler and magiskhide props config and rebooted, enabled magisk hide
installed netflix app via sideload and tick box in magisk to hide this app
went to netflix account to enable HD streaming for the device

I tried searching that thread for any more clues, but I can't get the "Search this thread" tool to work and didn't want to read 73 pages of posts. Anyway, do you know another way to get Netflix to work on LineageOS 17.1?
I've Netflix installed on my SM-T805 (LineageOS 18.1) without any Magisk modules. Runs fine.
Cheers
Toscha
Thanks again, Toscha. I wonder if it is because I only have LineageOS 17.1, the latest available for my T700. Do you remember if you downloaded it from apkmirror?
Actually I'm not sure. At least in the settings for Netflix app it says 'Installed from Play Store'. Not sure though whether it's the same for apps installed from APKmirror.
I did that a while just for test purpose. Not using Netflix actively on the tablet. And yes, it might have been from APKmirror.
Cheers
Toscha
I appreciate all your help, Toscha. I'll try some other versions....though I think the one I used should work on the T700 processor.
Much obliged!
Hey Toscha, just wanted to let you know I got it to work. I was using TWRP to install but all I needed to do was use APKmirror installer app! All is good now
Tom
Glad it worked finally!
Cheers
Toscha
