Just tried flashing RR with the app 1chrome suggested and it worked well:

1) Downloaded zarchiver, and a fresh copy of the latest RR build from Sourceforge (you may wish to compare file sizes and the md5 checksum to verify the ROM is complete.

2)Opened zarchiver, navigated to the Download folder and used the View option on the RR zip file (not Extract)

3)Within zarchiver, deleted the magisk folder. Made sure the progress bar reached 100 % before doing anything else and checked using Amaze file browser that the magisk folder within the zip was not present. I didn't see a .tmp file, so perhaps the delete was not completed as 1chrome suggested.

4) Rebooted into TWRP and flashed the modified RR.zip along with OpenGApps 7.1 mini 09/03/2017.

5)Reboot with stock RR kernel.

EDIT: 6) Flashed the SuperSU v.279 SR3 beta.

This is on a XT1642 G4 Plus previously updated to Nougat 93-14 and Lineage OS OMS (unofficial) installed.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] Sharp404:
The last file in the list...
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] echo92:
Do you still get that if you download a fresh copy from Sourceforge and, using Zarchiver, delete the magisk folder whilst viewing the archive, then closing the archive after the progress bar is finished? Also ensure you've got plenty of space remaining so the app can do its work :)

Can somebody tell me please what is the advantage of using magisk root compared to supersu. Also my understanding about safety net in magisk is to hide the root access from some apps. Is that correct. Which is the best root management app in terms of security and stability among magisk, supersu and phh's superuser.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] 1chrome:
Security - I think it's compromised the moment you root your device. So noone is a winner.

Management app in order of my preference:

1. Magisk - Well designed, has additional modules for some folks who find it difficult to flash certain zips. And yes - has the 'Hide' feature which is useful for some apps who don't like rooted devices.

Catch - doesn't work well with every ROM. Might give you issues if you flash against OP instructions.

This is for the simple user who just wants a simple way to allow a root request - nothing else.

2. SuperSU - known for its highly acclaimed development by Chainfire (he's the best in this dept from what I hear) it's also the most stable and seemed to work without any issues on ever ROM. Has a bunch of expert settings too which I don't know about.

This is for an average/expert user who wants power controls

3. PHH: App is annoying to use. The Root Request prompt is an entire screen instead of a popup and the time out cannot be lesser than 10secs (or use auto prompt).

This is for a user who has no other choice :P

Like stock ROM users :P

But given that you root your phone for obvious reasons and are unlikely to 'deny' a request, it doesn't really matter which app unless you are a power user. I would say all have been equally stable - for me atleast.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] nazim7:
Thank you very much for the detailed reply. So what I understood is that magisk is the future of root and supersu is going to face heavy competition from magisk. I feel like magisk have a more friendly UI and will be better for beginners like me. Can you kindly explain me what is the meaning of systemless root (only boot.img is patched) as mentioned by developers behind magisk. Does that mean system is also tweaked by other root management apps. Do we have to bother about security then. That is what I mean by security since system is untouched in magisk. :confused:
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] strongst:
Systemless means, that the system partition will be untouched, that means that several apps didn't realize that root is obtained(like banking apps who will search for altered system images). Super su changes the system partition to gain root, hence some apps recognize that and won't work.

For magisk there's a great forum here on xda: https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] pastorbob62:
But in my opinion, magisk carries a lot of other baggage with it that I don't need. I'm sticking with Supersu. I have no need of all the whiz-bang apps and modules that so many users cannot seem to live without. However, it is all personal preference and magisk does seem to be quite popular. ;)
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] optionalmgrr.la:
Any side effect if I do this?
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] rajatgupta1998:
No

Not much. I have heard some people say the auto focus doesn't work much well but that's only if you delete similar files from /system/etc/permissions/ which is actually not needed so no side effects. :good:

I tried updating RR9 March update...But got stuck on bootloader showing 'startup error Connect​ PC to repair' . don' know what's going wrong??
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] echo92:
Did you remove the magisk folder from the zip file as directed in the opening post in the RR thread? If not, the magisk root doesn't play nice with the kernel included with RR.

Can you reboot to recovery? If so (and assuming the magisk folder is still there), you may wish to try flashing either the ElementalX kernel https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/development/kernel-elementalx-g4-0-01-t3424836 or the vegito kernel https://xdaforums.com/moto-g4-plus/development/kernel-vegito-kernel-1-0-13-september-t3461021 these will replace the stock kernel with a kernel that appears to behave with the included magisk and thus should allow you to boot.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] AniLeo:
Didn't removed any folder....I was able to go to recovery mode..

And Magisk I am using SuperSU...

Never encountered this error while updating before ...
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] rajatgupta1998:
The newer builds have magisk in the zip file as RR is using it for super user management afaik and it is known to cause issues in booting up. So a possible fix is to remove magisk from the zip as indicated by [MENTION=7970352]echo92[/MENTION] . :good:
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] AniLeo:
So can I flash the elemental X kernel as said by [MENTION=7970352]echo92[/MENTION] now...And then update the new release..

Does flashing elemental X kernel now..Will cause any problem for SuperSU to work
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] rajatgupta1998:
Umm, I haven't been using RR for long now. But yes you can always make backups in twrp before you proceed. Try it.

For example, for a kernel just backup the boot partition before doing the flashing part. If anything happens you can always restore the backup :good:
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] echo92:
Actually, might be best to flash the RR zip, then flash ElementalX afterwards (since the ROM kernel may replace the elementalX kernel otherwise). Once booted, you may have to uninstall magisk before you flash SuperSU. You may wish to flash the SuperSU v2.79 beta https://xdaforums.com/apps/supersu/2014-09-02-supersu-v2-05-t2868133 As tywinlannister mentioned, make sure you have a backup before doing any flashing though!

Alternatively, you may choose to modify the zip file prior to flashing. You may be able to use WinRAR or 7zip to perform this, I've only used the app 7archiver to accomplish this (though won't be useful if your device is still only usable in recovery mode), but the general procedure should be the same:

1)With a fresh copy, view or open the zip file in the zip file manager. Do not extract the zip.

2)Delete the magisk folder on the top level of the zip. Wait for the file manager to finish.

3)Close the (now modified) zip file. Do not re-compress.

4)After copying the modified zip to your device, reboot into TWRP and flash as normal.

Good luck either way. :)

Continuing with Magisk would be good rather than going for SuperSU?

Do I have to repeat these steps for every update ....Like flashing elemental X after flashing update?

[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] echo92:
Up to you really, you can read the posts on the previous page of the thread about the differences between Magisk and SuperSU (here's a good overall by 1chrome: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=71420355&postcount=1098). I prefer to use SuperSU as Viper4ARISE works well with it, haven't tried it with magisk however.

For future builds, looks like Cyanogenmod SU (and not Magisk) will be provided, so this may be the only build for which we have to modify the zip/have to flash the ElementalX for installation. Credit to Silesh: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=71436110&postcount=1717 Note the red warning there that for any use of Magisk, you'll have to continue using ElementalX or other kernels.

[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] myk.robinson:
Guess I'll take a stab at asking a potentially stupid question. Yes, i did search (i searched the ROM thread specifically for the term "locksreen") and did not find what I was looking for.

I am currently running [MENTION=4551757]Silesh.Nair[/MENTION] 's Lineage ROM on XT1644, just clean flashed it today. Everything is working well, just having trouble finding something, if it exists on this ROM.

Is there an option to remove the icons on the lockscreen for the phone and camera? I'd prefer that a fingerprint or password have to be validated before an unauthorized user would have access to either.

EDIT: tested a little, and unless the user puts in a passcode or fingerprint, the phone is limited to 911, which is fine, and the camera does not expose the gallery. Still, wondering if I can remove icons from the lockscreen.

Thanks,

Keep awake let's the app keep itself alive in the background when you have moved from it to another app. I think the run in background allows the app to run a service in the background and keep alive even if you clear recents.

Guys I've come across a serious problem, even without charging my phone starts ghost touch problem, i can't figure out what is the trigger but i have experienced that it mostly happens when im outside. It's very annoying and many times doesnt get fixed by simply locking and unlocking phone. Please help.

Oh by the way this happens when i take out my phone from pocket and then unlock it , sometimes starts even in lock screen, first i thought maybe because of heating, but no it happens even when its not hot.

The only solution for ghost touch is visiting the service center and get your touchscreen calibrated, or better replaced..

If that's the solution then im doomed... :( since im on custom rom, any idea of how much will it cost cause i know that touchscreen thing is costly :(
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] 1chrome:
Nothing to do with the ROM. You're replacing a hardware component.

If you're concerned about warranty just revert to stock ROM if that helps. Sometimes they don't check it at a bootloader level.

Screen replacement is a costly affair - can cost about ¼ the price of the phone sometimes. Depends on your region.

That's because rotation uses the gyroscopic sensor. Since sensors aren't working on Lineage OMS ROM after flashing EX, flash the Sensorhub-N file zip in this post via your recovery. Courtesy [MENTION=4551757]Silesh.Nair[/MENTION]

A lot of custom ROMS recommend using Cameringo. I purchased the full version and it has a ton of features that I'll likely never use ;)

My question is probably better suited for the Cameringo team but figured I'd try here first anyway.

Is there anything that can be done to improve the save times for Cameringo? The baked in Snap cam takes fast pictures. I have dropped the resolution in Cameringo as low as it'll go and it is still slow to save, making it impossible to take successive pictures rapidly.

[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] echo92:
Feel free to correct me on any of these.

If by flashing a ROM, you're referring to any custom ROM, yes you will void your warranty as you will have to unlock your bootloader. You have to request an unlock code from Motorola and in doing so you accept voiding. I assume Xiaomi warranties are more flexible in this regard, though I have seen reports of G4/plus users being accepted for service even after the warranty has been void. Whether that's due to the users relocking the bootloader or the service centre focusing on hardware faults rather than software, I do not know.

Most of the custom ROMs I've seen do not require root to install, just an unlocked bootloader (though installing/booting also TWRP custom recovery for athene devices, from shreps or other developers, is required). Custom ROMs also may have root built in or be available as an add-on.

Whether or not you unroot or relock your bootloader, as mentioned above Motorola has recorded your warranty as void, but again, i imagine this is at the service centre's discretion and the nature of the fault that may decide on the repair and if you'll pay for it.

Overheating

Can anybody kindly tell me is there any way to prevent overheating of my device especially when I am playing a heavy game like Clash Royale.:confused: I am using AOSP extended rom by rahulsnair and this is my only issue in this rom. The battery backup I am getting from this rom is outstanding :angel:and the best I have seen (after installing greenify, force doze and L speed from playstore) until now among the many roms I have used until now, so I don't want to move from this rom. When the device is overheating, the battey drain is also insanely high and all this is happening within 15 minutes of opening a game. In normal usage, everything is perfect and I am getting good battery backup, so I feel that some cores are in sleep mode while normal usage and the overheating occures when all cores are running at max clockspeed, so if I can do something to change this , maybe it will not produce much heating.:rolleyes:

I have experienced the same amount of overheating in stock nougat, but it was very much less in Lineage OMS and RR. So I am feeling that it is just a matter of managing the processor while resource intensive apps are running.

NB: If I underclock or undervolt the processor, is it possible to increase the battery life and reduce the overheating. If it is possible, can somebody please explain how to undervolt the processor.
[Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers] avirk:
IIRC then you need to underclock the processor no need of undervolt. And yes you are right about high drainage when device get heat.

I don't know why RR doesn't have same deep sleep like aosp extended and validus rom also Lineage too, I tried those roms without much battery drain while RR have much battery drain while in pocket or deep sleep than those roms. And the setup was approximately same and I use same apps on my phone.
