How to root s4 i9505 running nougat 7.1.1 - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I installed "lineage-14.1-20170226-UNOFFICIAL-jfvelte" and "open_gapps-arm-7.1-flavor-20170308" on a Samsung gt-i9515, I can not do root. It's possible to do it? If so, how?

Thanks for the answer, I installed all "addonsu" from linage website but do not work. I also installed on the mobile SuperSU, but does not want to work. Where am I wrong?

Oh it is my mistake
You are on the unofficial build so you need to enable developer options by going to about device and press 7 times on build number,after that you will find a root option set it to apps and adb

I set root option and set it to apps and adb, but SuperSU still does not work, impossible to download the data. Why? Sorry, but it's the first time that i do this kind of root

I flashed my phone to 20g using the guide at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2085344&highlight=recovery and then rooted it with instruction from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2338816 .

I tried the toolkit at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2358130 but the software just hung. Any suggestion? Thanks.

Make sure that you install busybox. It's required to run that recovery.

Thanks, I've found it but Root Checker still say to me that I don't have proper root access. Any idea how to fix this?
Try different build of cm. And make sure to do full format of data and system before flashing.

dont go by results of root checker and if u still feel then flash the updates build
if you want try a dorimax test kernel (latest are almost stable) or latest slimkat from fusionjack or resurrection remix (many features from all roms)

Is my device rooted if I install cm 13?

If I install CM 13 on my Oneplus 2, will the device be rooted by default or do I have to flash the super SU zip?
If I dont flash the super SU zip will the apps like greenify and xposed module have root access?? please clarify.

Yes CM has its own SuperUser. You have to enable it in the Dev. Settings

Well... you just have to scroll down a bit in the dev-settings and the second entry under OEM-Unlock (called "Root access") is where you can choose whether adb, apps or both can request root.

Install this as a normal apk and give it adequate permissions:

Strange...What exactly means with not working? Could you install the app? What is your system (original EMUI-which?, rooted?, modified?)
Could you install and get into operation any of attached apps?

Im on original Emui rooted.
I was able to install but basic operation like calling made the app disappear or I managed to call but I couldnt hang the call.
It doesn't matter because using the apk and guide from the posted thread here everything works.
Thanks for the help anyway.

You could try using Magisk hide, If the app is failing to run because of root there's a chance that it's also checking for "SafetyNet" and if it is, Magisk hide is the only solution available. Of course you can also try using the other various methods of hiding root from the app too. I cannot guarantee this'll work but this is your best chance.

The use of Magisk Hide requires that you switch over to MagiskSU, Which means you'll have to uninstall SuperSU.
From my standpoint if you're going to attempt switching them, Make sure you're ready for anything. Backups, Stock ROM available and on hand just in case, You understand how ODIN works, In other words.....You know what to do to fix it if it doesn't end up working or you end up in a bootloop.
It should be safe but at the same time you be safe too, Just in case.
Last but not least, Read Read read, Make sure you understand what you're doing, Even ask within the Note 4 forum if they've successfully installed MagiskSU.
