Hello,

I cannot get root access with my Samsung Galaxy S5 klte G900T.

I use newest twrp-3.1.0-1-klte.img.tar to flash the nightlies. I have tried flashing addonsu-arm64-signed.zip with the lineageos and also after booting.

I also tried the "removeaddon" and afterwards the "addaddon".

In developer options I CAN select apps for root. But the next button is GREYED OUT where I can select apps.

Resurrection remix with magisk is working. But I better want to use lineageos.

TIA

EDIT: I used the wrong zip: addonsu-arm64-signed.zip Have to use arm instead of arm64! Don't know why nobody could help me.
[LineageOS News & Discussion] KnifeCat:
Not the latest...

I dont know if you're aware but there is a new version out now...I can't use my rooted apps! :(

RIP. Rip. Totally rip.
[LineageOS News & Discussion] z0m8i3:
I did the same thing, thanks to your post - I finally figured this out! Thanks! :o
[LineageOS News & Discussion] gemuehh2013:
Galaxy S5 klte is 32 bit - the arm64 version could not work use the 32 bit version.

Tried lineage-13.0-20170603-nightly-maserati-signed.zip today and rooting via addonsu-arm-signed.zip (for 13.0 - 2017-03-15 - https://download.lineageos.org/extras) via TWRP and got:

E:Error executing updater binary in zip `/sdcard/addonsu-arm-signed.zip`
Error flashing zip `/sdcard/addonsu-arm-signed.zip`
Updating partition details...

Root access via LineageOS developers settings is activated but has no effect. Any ideas?

Edit: using ResurrectionRemix-M-v5.7.4-20161009-maserati.zip from https://xdaforums.com/droid-4/development/rom-t3303602/ where root support works fine.

give me addon for *86 model plz....

give me addon su for *86 model which have error signal 4
[LineageOS News & Discussion] IronRoo:
Are you sure your phone has an x86 processor? Check manufacturers website or website like gsmarena for this info.

If you do have an x86 based phone, try redownload the root addon, update your recovery, update Linage ROM and try again to flash root addon. If still getting then maybe a bug to report to linage
[LineageOS News & Discussion] anaar:
tks for your support let me try this
[LineageOS News & Discussion] Michi_BS:
I made the this observation too after using apps which require root access. After closing of the apps the # continued in the status bar. So open the app history which can be configured e.g. on the left menu button then the # disappears on wiping the suspected app window away. Usually there are many entries. So scroll to the end of the list (or beginning) and clear all at once.

For some reason I can't make phh's su work: if I install LOS > gapps (aroma or full) -> phh's su and then enable dev. options, there is no way to allow root for apps. Tried rebooting and reflashing, flashing before gapps and after. Nothing seem to work. I don't want to use su provided by LOS devs since it's not compatible with magisk. Does anyone have any ideas?

edit: okay, phh's SU is not required for magisk, don't know why it's spreaded everywhere. Also, "root access" in dev options does not work as expected if SU is aquired via magisk.zip.

tl;dr: flash in order: LOS.zip > gapps.zip > magisk.zip > boot to system > install magisk.apk, set "core modules only" > reboot

New to forum just installed lineage nightly build 14.1 on asus z00a but su addon seams not working even after enabling it from developers mode any idea what could be the reason???

PS addonsu x86 14.1 which i used and download from extras section from LOS site
[LineageOS News & Discussion] Ibuprophen:
Just an FYI...

On 06-21-2017, LineageOS had released ALL updated SU installer's and Uninstaller's AND they also released some weather provider apps too.

Of course they are all located within their "Extras" section of the LineageOS Downloads page.

Just a friendly little FYI for those who may have missed it... :)

I'm having the same problem with a Z00A. I'm able to use an older installer that was sitting around on my SD card, but not the current version.
[LineageOS News & Discussion] gali666:
Hi! I have a problem with root of Asus Z00A. After flashing with addonsux86 i have option to select root acces from developer options (for Apps and ADB). But i doesn't geave ROOT acces to apps - nothing happens no root accces requests (so no root) ;(
[LineageOS News & Discussion] parminder1532:
I thought i was the only who had this problem...

Request to lineage team please look into :)
[LineageOS News & Discussion] joelin139:

Dude! Hi! I'm also have z00a and have the same problem, could you please upload your older version of this addon? Really, really thank you in advance!
[LineageOS News & Discussion] Ibuprophen:
If anyone is in search of the first/original releases, of the LineageOS Addon-SU files, I still have them all archived on my File Host Account here:

https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=193272

Since the time that CyanogenMod had disbanded and, LineageOS was established, i decided to archive certain items from LineageOS.

PLEASE NOTE: I found out that when LineageOS released the updated Addon-SU files, it was not intended as an update for the first releases that worked for individuals but, for those who had experienced issues with the first release.

As, purely, a Personal opinion... I think that individuals who wanted to flash the new Addon-SU, should have flashed the Addon-SU Uninstaller first, then reboot and flash the updated one.

In addition, always keep the copy of BOTH the Addon-SU Installer AND uninstaller. This should actually go for any file that you use in order to prevent having to find them again.

Like the saying goes (in a way)... If the first release worked, then why try to fix it with the second release.

Just a friendly FYI for those who may not be aware of this... :)

You're awesome! Really! Big hugs from us in Brazil!

[LineageOS News & Discussion] ali.akbar01:
Will flashing the official su add on change device status to 'uncertified'?
[LineageOS News & Discussion] Ibuprophen:
I, personally, don't believe that the SU Addon will do this...

I do believe that a device that goes from Certified to Uncertified is separated by 3 different categories (though i could be wrong).

1) Custom Firmware ROM.

2) Custom Recovery.

3) Unlocked Bootloader.

The SU Addon is just a Superuser Addon thats an additional item for the Firmware ROM.

This is just an educated guess and I know that there's more to it but, I'm hoping that someone else can confirm or further elaborate on this.

It is only needed to run apps like Pokémon go or android pay. You can try magisk for rooting, but its a game of cats and mouse: each time safety net gets stronger, makisk needs an update to dupe it.

Guys help who knows. I have a tablet LG G-pad V500. I interrogated on Lineage OS 14.1 and forgot to make a backup. Was not attentive. I have not read that Lineage OS does not have a root of rights. Now I do not know how to make a root. Thanks in advance!

Is there any way to generate an icon/shortcut for the app drawer that launches the "root manager" that's tucked away in Developer Settings?

Some kind of other workaround to see what's currently using root could work too...

Yes

Pull a settings widget to your home screen. The widget asks what shortcut it should be. Select "Privacy Guard". Tap the widget, scroll to the right, voila

Not really what I asked about - would like it in the app drawer. But thanks for that bit of knowledge anyway.
[LineageOS News & Discussion] Exabyter:
I've always used SuperSU on CM/Lineage. With the exception of some of the new versions after some part of SuperSU was taken over by "CodingCode" (instead of Chainfire), it's been very reliable.

I particularly like some of these "extra" features like how it keeps a list of which apps you give root permission to and in what form (eg always allow, prompt, prompt and require confirmation periodically, etc, how it logs root requests, and also has an optional password feature for approving root requests. (Tho that feature isn't promised to be bulletproof secure)

Nowadays it seems that Magisk is trendy and I'm thinking of trying it out, but do the root solution(s) for Magisk also have features like those described above? If not, I may not bother trying that route.

TIA
[LineageOS News & Discussion] kurtn:
I like it simple. Magisk has too much complexity and updates. If I have a ROM not compatible with addonsu I use phh's superuser.
[LineageOS News & Discussion] PackElend:
where does the packages modify the files on system or boot.

Wondering if it is compatible with Magisk.
[LineageOS News & Discussion] kurtn:
Every root manager brings its own SU binary. Never heard of any cross compatibility.
[LineageOS News & Discussion] PackElend:
I don't intend to use Magisk SU binary but as I as Magisk is systemless I would like to know if LineageOS SU binaries modify \system or \boot.

If both act on \boot I wonder if can run Magisk (without deploying Magisk's root tools) and root by means of LineageOS SU binaries.
[LineageOS News & Discussion] 4oo4:
Anyone know if the 14.1 binary works with 15.1? I might wait to upgrade until they release that.

I've already seen a question or two about this...

As a quick FYI for those who may be in search of the "addonsu-15.1-x86"...

I'm just assuming that this will be delayed up to month or two but, I'm just going by the appropriate time period/gap between the initial 14.1 ARM & ARM64 release and then the later x86 release.

Just be patient... I doubt that they had forgotten about the AddonSU 15.1 for the x86 devices.

Enjoy! :thumbup:

Quick question. I'm currently syncing LineageOS but i had to force sync due to errors and i see that it cant find a reposotiry or two. Does this affect anything in the source code or am i good to go? I just seem to see that all the time
[LineageOS News & Discussion] Ibuprophen:
I do understand your question but, I'm a bit confused regarding the context in which the question is regarding/referring to.

Can you please clarify as to what exactly it is your "syncing" and where to/from?

[LineageOS News & Discussion] Ibuprophen:
Regarding anything CyanogenMod... The Official servers have been taken offline and I don't believe that it had pointed to Github because they had private server's at the time.

Regarding LineageOS servers... The updates from the Official servers don't point to Github. It's there own private ones they use.

The only side note regarding the above information would be Unofficial ones for CyanogenMod and LineageOS.

I do believe (i may be wrong in part) that some of the Unofficial LineageOS & CyanogenMod developers had modified the update servers within the Firmware to whichever they had specified and Github can potentially be one of them.

I hope that I had explained this to you okay via text... :)

Hey folks, i hope you can help me out..

Just installed LOS 15.1 unoffical for the LE2 of my mother, all working good despite Bluetooth (Not the matter here).

Now i want to install this Root Addon so i can setup Adaway. My questions:

1. How to flash in latest TWRP: Wipe needed? Or just flash and reboot to system?

2. Is safetynet bypass needed for Adaway?

Thanks in advance!
[LineageOS News & Discussion] kurtn:
1 no wipe just reboot and activate in developer settings.

2 adaway needs nothing but root. I get it from f-droid.

I had never used the method offered by Lineage to be root, I decided to root with the addon but I did not see the floating request vanetana, someone else happened? I tried RR and Lineage itself and nothing, it does not appear and therefore I can not be root in my OnePlus 5.
[LineageOS News & Discussion] kurtn:
You have to activate it in settings developer options.

Is active, i selected "ADB and Apps" but nothing happens...

To check i usually activate local terminal, and type "su" in it.
[LineageOS News & Discussion] DqrKn3Zz:
Automatically denied, the window petition don't appear.

Does this work with rr rom

I am using rr remix running Oreo 8.1 0 and as rr is based on lineage os, this solution should work

But in my case ,it shows no popup for root permission and root checker says that you are not rooted.

Pls help
[LineageOS News & Discussion] kurtn:
Not all "based on" ROMs are compatible with LOS addonSU. Do you see root access in developer options? That is a hint for compatibility.
[LineageOS News & Discussion] Iamtheboss426:
Well I have got this
[LineageOS News & Discussion] kurtn:
So you clean flashed RR and addonSU? Nothing else? You know arm64 is only for 64 bit ROMs independent of your processor? You checked root with a second independent tool like terminal or root file explorer? Then you should contact your ROM devs and hit a thanks for me.
[LineageOS News & Discussion] Iamtheboss426:
I could do that but my internal has also been encrypted after installing this ROM

I know the password but that's a really long process

I need to wipe the whole of my data and then I will be able to install any new ROM

I have also installed the original LOS addonsu on a RR Rom but it shows also no popup for root permission.

No more problem, root is fully recognized on this 8.1 RR Rom

The SU addons are typically managed via the Root Access within the Developer Options.

I believe you need to set it first before the Root Prompt.

I just stated that device because I had created it to test out on my other S5 and was just sharing it for others to test out with their device.

I had grabbed the files for the AddonSU from the LineageOS 16.0 channel and compiled them as a Beta Test Version (as well as the uninstaller too) and I haven't tested it yet.

It should work for any ARM device on LineageOS 16.0 (untested of course).
