Anyone using systemless root + xposed and android pay?

I was able to use systemless root with magisk v3 + phh superuser + systemless xposed without any problem however flashfire was not working since I cannot also make chainfire supersSU to work in s7 edge...

( releases after v3 up to v6 are not supporting well samsung - I verified though with the android version G935FXXU1BPH6 which also might be causing issues).

However after updating this version G935FXXU1BPH6 it seems to cause issues with TWRP and only boots to the last (twrp-3.0.2-3-hero2lte.img) and now I cannot go systemless at all because magisk v3 is not working aswell, root simply is not recognized.

SO basically now I'm using stock phone as I wanted to use android pay.... any ideas or anyone with any sucess?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] inteks:
im using v6 without problems. BUT you have to root with cfautoroot and unroot with superSU one time. i think that superSU changes something in boot.img that magisk needs to work ...

after that you have to use phh superuser.

pogo work

Flashfire will not
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] poweryang:
ok
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] Galactus:
This works fine as does systemless xposed etc. Did you pick the option to restore stock boot.img when you uninstalled SuperSU?

My banking apps can still detech phh's root. Wondering if the modified boot from SuperSU is the cause. Might just need to wait for Magisk V7 which shouldn't need this workaround.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] inteks:
No. Restore stock boot.img doesn't work for me

That is only for ANZ and Westpac internet banking, not Android Pay? Is that correct? Have you got it working for Android Pay?

I am new to s7 edge

I have g935FU1BPI6 installed .

I would like to install systemless root/xposed/recovery,

Is it possible?

Please guide,

Thanks in adv

Is it require to wipe data after flashing twrp?

https://www.androidpit.com/why-a-factory-reset-doesn-t-wipe-all-your-data

The factory reset problem was uncovered by some Cambridge University researchers in the first major study of this taken-for-granted Android security feature. The factory reset, we’ve always been told, will delete all data, accounts, passwords and content from your Android device. The problem is, this is only partially true.

Why doesn't a factory reset work?

The researchers tested a range of second-hand Android devices running Android versions from Android 2.3 to Android 4.3 and found that in all cases they were able to recover account tokens – which are used to authenticate you once a password is entered the first time – from service providers such as Google, Facebook and WhatsApp. In a staggering 80 percent of cases, they were able to recover the master token.

The master token is essentially the key to the front door, the equivalent of installing a top-notch security system and then hiding the key under the doormat. Once a master token is recovered, the user’s credential file can be restored and all your data re-synced to the device: that means emails, cloud-stored photos, contacts and calendars.
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] jay8302:
Yeah this is old. Good info still. They suggested that we encrypt the device then do a factory reset. Or something like that
[Verizon Note 7  Questions & Answers] Mr. Toad:
I sold my Note 5. I encrypted the phone with a strong password. I did a a factory reset. I then encrypted the phone again and then did another factory reset.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] neezy13:
I've searched and also posted in the Greenify forum with no luck, so I figured I would ask here. Does Aggressive Doze work with AOD enabled? It most definitely does not work on my S7 Edge with AT&T's APH1 firmware. If I turn off the AOD, Aggressive Doze works as intended. It also works if I place my phone screen-down thereby temporarily disabling AOD. I also have doze on the go enabled as well if that matters.

This costs me 1+ hours of SOT per day and I would like to use the AOD but I'm not sure its worth the trade-off.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] insaned:
you tried disable doze on the go?

I was using AOD fine along with aggressive doze and never noticed any problem...
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers] neezy13:
I tested this out by uninstalling and reinstalling Greenify (the only way I know of to disable doze on the go) and enabled Aggressive Doze again. Timed it for over 30 minutes and doze did not activate. I flipped the phone over on its screen and it dozed within 6 minutes.

I will try thanks for your help!!
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] PlutoDelic:
it'll work as long as it repartitions with the new PIT file, which is included in the CSC tar.md5.

Downloading as we speak. It's weird how they reverted the releases to XXU in MM, which has been widely released with XXS. Samsung keeps being strange.

Let the Custom TouchWiz's boom now.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] No Deffy:
Do you have unbrand phone to ? I have afraid if dont work in my phone.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] Eserim:
Did you try any of the existing root methods?
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] PlutoDelic:
I was on unbranded, but i flashed with 4 package files method, so it changes the layout.

Yes. Flashed TWRP with Odin, and then flashed SuperSU through TWRP.

As for testing...

Butter smooth, even while updating apps, lags are gone.

Good Lock works fine, so does Wanams xposed.

They updated the App Drawer, which i always thought comes within the Launcher, cause, of course, we still have the Lollipop TouchWiz. Also icons are new too.

And finally, SmartManager with a widget.

Anyway, the only main things outdated are TouchWiz and SecSettings.

I think with Good Lock, we avoid needing any custom touching on SystemUI and Framework.

Happy Marahmallow guys, didnt expect it at all.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] No Deffy:
How i can install with 4 package file method ?
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] Eserim:
Cheers - any particular version of TWRP/SuperSU? Did Xposed go straight on? Or did yo have to use the various methods we had to for 5.x?
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] PlutoDelic:
You can use SamFirm to download the 4 package, just make sure you tick the Binary check box. But people seem to have success with the single file, so you might wanna use that and download from www.updato.com

I'm using the TWRP from Ashyx and the universal SuperSU zip package.

For Xposed, use wanam's version, make sure you get the arm one, which is for 32 bit devices. And a goody for the end, Xposed Installer with Material (has quite a few better things inside)
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] AceyNB:

[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] Eserim:

[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] PlutoDelic:
It shouldn't be long until they show up. F/M/H should definitely get it, G/Y might, and i bet 0/9/YZ wont.

At thread...

I've tested a few Note 7/S7 Edge apps, and they seem to work.

Launcher works well

SecSettings and SystemUI changes seem to work too.

Theme button points to the old Theme Center app, not the store, even though i changed the launcher.

I tried [MENTION=6446790]mygalaxya[/MENTION] Note 7 port rom on the A300FU and it works, although it has DPI issues as everything is gigantic, i think that is to be expected.

A few apps, like the InCallUI doesnt seem to work. Neither did the new SmartManager.

<ID:0/004> FAIL! (Ext4)

<ID:0/004>

<ID:0/004> Complete(Write) operation failed.

Phone says (red message)

Volume size is too big 204800 < 409600

!! My model is A300FU of course and I flashed back 5.0.2 version without any problem. Any Idea ??
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] Eserim:
Argh! Shed loads of version appeared today, but still No UK unbranded (BTU)
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] PlutoDelic:
Dont rush, nearly all the releases today were TMobile, and are surprisingly built in July (PG2). The first batch were built in August (PH3), and featured a Vodafone (UK) .

I know your waiting for an Unbranded one. i usually debloat a rom manually from adb/TWRP before the first boot, and i noticed that there was not much crapware from vodafone this time, and even the boot animation is stock :).
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] Eserim:
Ta - I missed the Vodafone one - too many sites - I thought Sammobile was definitive, but obviously not
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] PlutoDelic:
Updato.com is solid, made from the guy who gave us SamFirm (which still works well).
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] Eserim:
Do you have a stock debloat script, or do you pick and choose each time?

I'll probably give the Vodafone one a go at the weekend if a BTU doesn't appear, now I have a nice TWRP backup and happy that we can get TWRP on without any pain.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] PlutoDelic:
Just when i freshly flash, i literary let the initial update reboot do itself, and then when it reboots to system, i intercept and load TWRP on it.

After that, i just get shell access through adb, and create a list command of the app and priv-app folder. I cherry pick what i want to get rid of, put a "rm -R" in front of them, and just paste it on the shell.

Script wise, it's not worth, i may keep something you may not like, and i may delete something you may want to keep. This was my story everytime i used someones debloating work.

An Aroma script would be amazing, but i lack the skills for that.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] Eserim:
Ta - true, who knows I may actually WANT the Samsung Flipboard app. I'm relatively new to Samsungs, 3 Motos before this one, so still being cautious, currently I'm using Package Disabler Pro, which seems pretty good - looks like it uses a system administrator to disable crap. And thinking about it, because Samsung have loaded so much crap, if the carriers addes too much the phones would stop working.

Edit

I just checked the date difference between UK Vodafone and BTU for the A5 update -more than a month - more reason to go for the Vodafone one! (OK I know that this doesn't prove anything, but..)
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] Eserim:
OK - I flashed the "UK" Vodafone - turned out to be German, and also the WiFi didn't work - even after factory reset. So (hopefully) restoring a TWRP back up.

For info the CSC code of the flashed ROM was VD2 - or at least that is what my "Original CSC Code" is now showing - I forgot to note it after the flash
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] norbertom:
For debloat I use THIS(dont know if its still valid for android 6.0) and/or the freezing option in titanium backup, because sometimes I need to reactivate something.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] Parnas72:
Same problem here... installed 6.0.1 from Kies with the unbranded Italian ROM (ITV), and afterwards wifi was not working anymore.

Also, something that made me perplexed is that, after the upgrade, I ran the Stagefright detector app and warned me of about 20 vulnerabilities, 4 of them critical, whereas on 5.0.2 the same app showed no vulnerabilities at all.

I'm restoring a TWRP backup now.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] ntnlzr:
there is the ITV firmware on samfirmware too here

after upgrade no wifi....
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] mikeyxb:
ok i flashed this with a problem it seems there is an error with ext4 image to large only can presume its not dealing with the csc properly to repartition but it seems that when i flashed twrp via odin it booted up ok... not encountered any problems as yet and all is ok just going to try and figure how to get root if anyone has done this?
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] Parnas72:
It's easy, flash TWRP recovery with Odin and then install SuperSU.

---------- Post added at 01:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:19 PM ----------

I'm wondering why for some people everything works fine while for others, like us, wi-fi is not working... what version did you upgrade from ? I was on 5.0.2 build BOJ5.

[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] PlutoDelic:
Grab the SamMobile app and head to the firmware information tab. Let us know if everything is being updated.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] ntnlzr:
cpg2 with pit and clean install all it's working fine
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] Parnas72:
So that might be the difference... you had the most recent Lollipop build, while I tried to upgrade directly to 6.0.1 from a slightly older one.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] ntnlzr:
yes now i've problem with root, i've flashed supersu from recovery ma the app said no binary ........... someone can help me? Maybe i've to wait chainfire
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] Eserim:
So, no clear reasons why some flashes "work" but seem to give the wrong CSC code and also fail WiFI.

Has anyone tried factory reset, flashing first with the very oldest ROM first, factory reset, flash with a 6.0.1 version?
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] PlutoDelic:
If a bootloader or modem is not flashed, the new system ends up using the old one which may be incompatible, hence issues such as Wifi.

To whoever has the wifi issue, get the sammobile app on play store and share a screenshot from the firmware tab.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] Eserim:
So how do I flash the boot loader and modem? Is it a setting on Odin?
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] PlutoDelic:
There is no official reason as why they don't flash, but we have isolated the causes to a few things. Download Mode works best if the phone is off, at least for 10 seconds. A lot better if the phone has a removable battery.

If one boots directly from system to dowload mode, or from twrp, i noticed many times that the bootloader would always be ignored, or maybe relfashed back to the old one (just like the recovery security feature).

I even had cases where with the 4 file method, it would update one of them, and force me to reflash it again, alone.

To answer your question, you tick the bootloader update on the 2nd tab of Odin, that way it includes the update. Sammobile website, Samsung-updates, and even Updato.com do not show all information regarding the rom. When we see i.e PH3, it actually means the whole package has PH3, but the modem can be as old as BOK (that's november, 2015), and bootloader too.

SamFirm (the app that downloads roms), shows that information when you check for it. SamFirm usually downloads the 1 package (all-in-one, so modem and bootloader included) which are loaded in to AP in Odin. If you tick Binary feature, it will download the 4 package rom, CP (modem), BL (BootLoader), CSC, AP (System, Data, Recovery and Kernel if i am not wrong).

Even though the 4 file package clearly flashes stuff separately, i had cases, as i said, where it wouldnt update either bootloader or modem. After the 2nd flash, it always did though.

The Sammobile Device Info app on Play Store, can show the version of each of them (they're actually partitions), here's mine:

And yea, you can flash MM from Jelly Bean, and it wouldn't matter.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] Eserim:
Thanks - I tried the Sammobile app but it is horrid - refuses to login even with valid account details - so I'll give that a miss. I'll wait it out until proper UK retail comes out then try again
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] PlutoDelic:
must be a different app, this one just shows information.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] Parnas72:
OK, thank you very much for your comments. I've currently reverted to Lollipop because I could not stay without wi-fi, but as soon as I have some spare time I will try again to upgrade.

Hi guys,

Could you please advise, I have unbranded model SM-A300FU and tried to install Marshmallow using Odin and TWRP but always have error "Volume size is too big". I tried Vodafone and Slovakia. I read somewhere in this thread that I need to use pit file to change partition size adding pit file to Odin and check re-partition option but I am not sure where I can find this pit file for 6.0 update and my phone model.

Thanks in advance.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] PlutoDelic:
It is not necessarily correct with that being "region", it's the XXU and DXU and VJU stuff that would be Region literary in this aspect.

What you see there is the CSC optimised for a specific country, due to whatever regulations (many countries may not license some band i.e), nevertheless, most of them are similar as many countries tend to follow unification. I have rarely had issues with my local carrier even though on totally different CSC, sometimes even branded.

Sometimes a bunch of countries identify with a single code, NEE for nordic countries (norway, sweden, finland, denmark), or even SEE for South Eastern Europe.

You most probably have an Unbranded phone, which needs a PIT to move to a branded phone, and the only difference between them is that 200mb of the system partition are sacrificed for the Hidden partition, where carriers load the bullcrap.

YOU CAN HOWEVER TRY AN UNBRANDED FIRMWARE. I'd rather go with that if i were you, CSC difference is answered in this post above.

Give it a try: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/97998/A300FUXXU1CPH3_A300FUOXX1CPI1_TEB/ - This one has an OXX CSC, which means it has the most generic and standard European CSC's included, although it states that it is Bosnia and Herzegovina.
