V4A on Verizon? - Verizon LG V10

To Sum up what is discussed on this topic and to get Viper4Android functioning on the Verizon Variant:
(It is a good idea to restart phone after every step)
1. Disable namespace separation in SuperSU (Restart Phone)
1A.(haven't confirmed if this is really required, but worked for me) Install SELinux and change mode to Persuasive.
2. Install Busybox app and install into xbin.
3. Install Viper4Android and grant SU access and click Yes to install drivers.
A Big thanks to everyone who contributed. (And incase I missed anyone, please let me or a moderator know so we can add you) @TotallyAnxious @gerguter @mcbeat257 @carycooke

I'll get it going later today for you

I am pretty sure everyone else has this same problem :3

here is the file i used and just installed with root explorer
I installed busybox from the playstore
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=stericson.busybox
I do not use this but it is up and running on my V10

That program was already installed on the device - it's just that V4A fails to recognize that it is installed to install the driver.

thats a good one and not sure ALL i could tell you is to try and unistall busybox and goto superuser and make sure it is not blocking it on permission rights
then reinstall it again and make sure superuser has allowed it

Been there, done that. Pretty sure it is a big system glitch or the app itself is glitching.

i have also read somewhere that busybox has to be installed before V4A if not you have to uninstall V4A and busybox
then reinstall busybox first then V4A
hope this helps

I also did that, I even factory resetted it, still not working. Pretty sure V4A is the culprit of this glitch.

Try disabling namespace separation in SuperSU and reinstall busybox. Namespace separation can cause issues with apps being able to write to system. So even if busybox is there V4A might have issues with writing to system and the app assumes it's a busybox issue even if it isn't.

And don't forget about selinux needing to be permissive.

I can confirm that changing the name space setting works. I'm on At&t.

Unfortunately, after setting SELinux to permissive and toggling namespace separation, it STILL seems to not recognize busybox.

Did you reboot after toggling? And reinstall busybox after rebooting? If that doesn't work, I would uninstall viper reboot and reinstall and try again.

SuperSu- better SU app

You guys should try the SuperSU app by chainfire. It's a hundred times better than the usual SuperUser app. Trust me, you will be benefited. I am currently using it with gingercruzt- xs. Works great.
Install instructions:
1) Go to the play store and Install SuperSU.
2) Open it.
3) It will prompt for a binary update. Accept it.
4) After installation succeeds configure the app to suit your needs.
5) Reboot
Note- You can't use SuperUser(not SuperSU) app with SuperSU. Either delete it using a root browser or don't open it.
Cheers.
Oh really?
So tell me, what is there so much better than regular Superuser.
i use SuperSU with CM9 and it's a nice option for ics i think, but both apps are good, don't think that one is better, i only like the SuperSU interface more

dey both do tha same function... OP why not post screenies??

Unless Superuser runs into problems, I won't change it at this point. Superuser just works... if and when I start learning to be a dev myself then I would need to understand su logs, but for the moment I don't need the granular control of SuperSU.
And I Quote......
"SuperSU takes SuperUser and enhances just about every bit of it! It comes with a better access prompt/logging/notifications, lets you configure notifications for each apps, unroot your device temporarily so you can access non-root-only services like Google Videos and more. These features are included in the free version while the pro version comes with features like an OTA Survival Mode in which SuperSU attempts making through an OTA update that normally removes root access, PIN protection, color-coded input, output and error command content logging...."

"SuperSU obviously requires root permissions to run, so be sure to root your Android device first. After rooting, you may install SuperSU so that it can manage root permissions. If you already have SuperUser installed, then you don’t have to do anything special: installing SuperSU automatically dethrones SuperUser from root management..."
"I’ve been using SuperSU for the past few weeks and, to be very honest with you, haven’t noticed any significant differences between it and SuperUser. Unless you’re an advanced enthusiast, you won’t either. But yes, the Android developer community has been singing praises for it, so we still highly recommend you get it for your device...."
For our phones, OTA update doesn't remove root anyway.
Other features seem a bit useless to me.

It's up to personal preference. But, I would use it mainly for the segmentation error free binary, ability to use su even when android is not booted and more sleeker and darker ui than superuser. It's binary updater is also good.
@Someguyfromhell, why are you being so rude? Have I posted something wrong?
Guys, a lot of people started using this so I suggested that you guys should also try this out.

the only thing is the different su binarys, if u install the SuperSU su-binary the normal su app stop working because it isn't compatible with the su-binary from super su.
u can remove superuser.apk, BUT don't forget if u want to revert to the normal superuser u have to upgrade the su binary with it, others u will lose root access.

Hmm, so complicated, i've just installed this app but i am going to remove it now. I'm a general user, so using this app or a normal superuser app is not important for me. I just care that my phone is rooted. Avoiding trouble is better
I installed it quite a while ago.. Apart from the nice looking UI I didn't find anything else better than regular SU so I uninstalled.
Newb here.
I have just rooted my xperia z1and as per advice installed SuperSu.
I rooted because I was having SD card permissions problems.
Can you tell me how I can change permissions on Apps or sd card.

Yes it does
Edit: I can't update SU binary with Supersu. :/
It not works with the 2.254 firmware and it gives you phone restarts when try to do any root thing for example delete a system file.
SuperSu does not work either. I can update the binary but gives you unlimited phone restarts right after boot. So bootloop.
I deleted it in safe mode.
Waiting for the new version. :\
I have now installed supersu and updated binairy.
also i have tried superuser from chainsdd ant had no bootloop anymore but lost root when removing the chinese version.
how do i delete the chinese superuser app without losing root?
EDIT:
Somehow i managed to root my phone while the chinese superuser was removed and it didn't come back after root using Vroot
so now i am using supersu and it's working perfect.
EDIT:
Phone force reboot when removing system app or changing /system to r/w.

Change SELinux status to Permissive

Here is a way for us to change the SELinux status to Permissive on our ATT N3.
Prerequisites
1. Busybox must be installed.
2. Have to be on NC2 or MLG Kernel. If not then download it from here (http://d-h.st/lBR) and flash it using Odin (select PDA). (You DON'T have to upgrade your BL to NC2. Just the kernel. I'm still on MLG BL, so I can still roll back to 4.3 if I wanted).
3. Most importantly. Have to be on SuperSU 2.13 http://d-h.st/afU
Instructions: (only if you plan on applying manually after every reboot)
1. Download http://www78.zippyshare.com/v/1605705/file.html
2. Move the file to /data/local/tmp/
3. Change Permission to 0755 (-rwxr-xr-x)
3. Open up the Terminal Emulator and type the following.
Code:
su -c /data/local/tmp/SE_Status_Change_via_kmem.sh
4. Enjoy.
OR
Instructions: (to apply automatically at reboot)
1. Download http://www78.zippyshare.com/v/1605705/file.html
2. Change its name from "SE_Status_Change_via_kmem.sh" to "SE_Status_Change_via_kmem"
3. Move that file to /system/etc/init.d/
4. Change permission to 0777 (-rwxrwxrwx)
5. Reboot.
Proof.

I tried the busybox route as well. I'm sure it is something simple that I'm forgetting.
Is there any other benefit than the possibility of flashing custom kernels when changing to "permissive"? If not, why am I changing it?

Substratum on R1 HD

Any suggestions on how to get Substratum or other theme engine working on our device? The only version I can get to work consistently is v12.
V17 sorta works if you dirty flash, but not a clean install. No luck with ZenUI rom either.
After some testing by myself and others, Substratum does work in Legacy mode on V12 with no modification.
In order to get it working properly on V17 I recommend the following:
Flash the permissive boot.img provide by @vampirefo
Issue the adb remount command via pc
Create the 'overlay' folder in /system/vendor either via adb shell or root file manager
Copy the 'aopt' and 'aapt' file from /data/data/projekt.substratum/files into /system/bin either via adb shell or root file manager
Clear theme cache in Substratum if themes are not applying. Reboot. Attempt to apply theme again.
This works for me using Orange Kitten Pro, Swift Black, Swift Dark, The Kittens, Navigate and Navbars themes.
Thanks to @vampirefo and @keredini for their assistance.

Substratum for Blu R1 HD
exjinn said:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yes, there is in fact a way to get Substratum working on your R1 HD.
1. Get the Substratum app from the Google Play Store
2. Launch the application, and give it superuser access
3. Download anything you want!
Important:
There is a bug though with Substratum on the R1 HD. If you do download a theme that changes your whole System UI (not just the navbars), your power menu will not open. The phone will just restart once you turn the screen off. To fix this I have installed NeoPowerMenu using the Xposed Module. If you don't have Xposed, you should look into getting it. If you don't want to get it, you can just look for other alternate menus on the Play Store.
Hope it helps!

Hmm, that's interesting. I had the Prime version and had gotten it to work on that. What does it say when you try to apply the theme?
I get an error stating:
Theme compilation has completed
An error has occurred during overlay installation.
Gave up on 6.6 went back to OEM, everything works.
I managed to get substratum working on v17 by creating a directory named overlay in /system/vendor/
Edit only temporary success, unable to change themes.
After flashing a permissive boot.img, I am able to successfully install and change some themes in Substratum.

Hmmm. Have created the directory /system/vendor/overlay? Have you tried adb remount?

Yes, I did all of that, I only can do r/w folders of system with the app Root Essentials, there I created the folder "overlay", and i tried "adb remount", it says success, but still with that I can't install themes

If you already have busybox setup this suggestion might not get you anywhere. But try to replace the toolbox binary. I made recovery flash able package for it.

Try the v12-toolbox one.
I can't recommend that as I use BusyBox.
Well I will try, but I think I will back to v12 because the battery performance is much better, thanks for the help

There is a link in Vampirefo's post here
Note that for some reason i couldn't use fastboot and flash it, i had to use Flashify to do so. But after that I could use Substratum (with a few other steps to get it running).

What were your other steps?
I do believe you need to do more than just put busybox binary into xbin. It needs to be linked to be useful. Easiest way to do it is with the busybox app from play store. Then from in the app select install. Then that should all work.

AdAway doesn't work?

Hey guys, I am Redmi 3 user with Mokee 7.1 newest ROM and ARM64 7.1 Nano GApps and I also allowed Root for Apps and ADB in Dev. options..
I have newest AdAway app installed but it's not blocking the Ads, can you tell me why? :/
You have to have the latest version (3.2) and check enable systemless mode.

Sorry but I don't understand what you mean by "enable systemless mode" .. Where can I find it please?
Do I need SuperSu installed or smth..?
Adaway only works with root. You can select it under the three dots then preferences.

You don't need the pro version. When you apply the adblocking it should ask for root permission. If not look for the supersu app on your phone and give adaway the permissions manually.

Do I need to install dm verity? I mean lazyflasher-no-verity-opt-encrypt to use SuperSu?
I have no idea. I got my phone unlocked as soon as I got it. I'm using Mokee 6.0. If you are using a locked phone with Miui you will have to do some reading.

You need Xposed to block ads in YouTube using a specific module. Xposed is not compatible with Nougat yet so you will continue to see ads on YouTube. You would have to downgrade to Mokee 6.0 Marshmallow to run Xposed.
Try to set system mount rewritable before downloading the host files in adaway. As for youtube, try to find some modded apk, not the official one.

There are apps in play store that can mount system rewritable. Root essential for example.

I use TWRP recovery and in Mount menu I unticked Mount system partion read-only ... Is it what you talking about ?
Yea, but after reboot I think you should still check if system still mounted r/w before execute the adaway.

you guys should use moadb(mother of all adblocking) mod. its not as aggressive as adaway app blocking all ads but it will get the job done for the most

Install all and restart? Did you mean that adaway has already succeed in applying the host files? And there are still ads?
