are you s-off or s-on?
If you are s-on thats the problem, if you want to delete system apks go into your clockwork recovery and mount system then use adb on your pc do delete the apks
if you need more info on that ask me
Ah thanks
Then even if I have su permission ,
if my legend is not s-off then I can't get full permission?
i only know that you absolutely delete your apps if your legend is s-off

it is rooted.... i can clean dalvic through cwm recovery but cant gain root permissions I think that part of the stock root manager or something like that is left on the system that denies root permission to other apps but don't know what to do, I have million settings and phone numbers and apps and other stuff that I don't want to lose but titanium backup is not working either..... If I wanted I could have flashed the same rom (it's still on the sd) and I think that would fix it but I don't want another flash if possible

Flash this in CWM UPDATE-SuperSU-v1.65.zip
To whom it may concern: Asus software engineers were busy and they released Oreo: https://www.asus.com/de/Phone/ZenFone-4-ZE554KL/HelpDesk_Download/
For me I'll wait for some answers about compatibility of TWRP and the possibility to root. At present I run rooted Nougat Version WW_14.1064.1711.96 (TWRP 3.1.1 with Magisk V15.2, XPosed V89 and Gravity Box [N.] V 7.0.6). Never change a running system if you don't feel the urgent need

Excellent. You use XDA guide to Root and install TWRP? You don't have brick?
After couple nights of pain, finally installed 8.0.0. I have TWRP 3.2.1-0 and Magisk 15.3.
The main problem: ROOT doesn't work. Root check says phone's rooted, and apps request and get root permissions, but in fact there's no one. For example, root uninstaller can't remove any system app. Tried lesser TWRP (3.1.1), tried SuperSU instead of Magisk. SuperSU doesn't even work, says "SU binnary occupied".
Also one problem: WW-15.0405.1712.83 doesn't want install through TWRP, says "no file contexts". But you can install it through stock recovery, it just bypasses this check.
To get stock recovery, you can do the trick: install SuperSU, boot system, open the app and pick "Unroot" option (it will offer you to clear recovery and boot). Now you get stock recovery and can install firmware.
UPD: Was wrong. Root works, but neither Magisk nor SuperSU gives RW permission on system folder. That's the main problem now. Tried updating permissions on system folders manually through file managers (Root Explorer, etc.). Tried updating through terminal: from adb shell and from recovery. Nothing works. Folders are marked RW now, permissions are right, but apps like Root Uninstaller still can't do anything.

Well, yes. As said at the end of the last message, phone in fact appears to be rooted. I have access to /root folder and apps now ask for super-user permissions.
But some apps, like Root Uninstaller, doesn't work... However you can manually delete unwanted .apk from /system folder, it's possible.

Hi. Sorry, haven't seen this message.

Hi,
Can anyone help me with my phone ZE554kL on how to root this or link me to a guide? Thanks in advance.
"Continue reading only if interested what happen."
I've never done this before and I just want to do root because my internal storage was wiped out when I was backing up all my files to PC. Windows explorer stops responding while transferring files then after the not responding issue, my internal storage is empty and when I checked my phone all the files is gone (photos, videos, PDFs).
I tried different android recovery software in windows and everytime i do a scan, i always ending up being asked by the software to root my phone so it can scan through to my internal storage.
Since my files was lost, i never touch my phone since then so nothing will be written on internal storage that could take away the chance of recovering my files.
Am on RR 8.1.0

Not working bro ....
Now used Debloater magisk module ...working fine the best way to remove system app systemlesly
I'm having a a wierd issue can someone explain , i recently downloaded Xiaomi.eu 8.11.15 rom n flashed it via twrp recovery along with data disable force encryption (magisk included 17.3) , it booted , i checked magisk installed n module installation was working properly , then i wanted to remove google app but it's a system app so i downloaded system app remover it was granted root permission but when I was trying to remove app it was failing again n again so i thought trying if via file explorer so i tried to remove it from root storage/system/priv app but again it was failing to delete a folder though root permission was granted to file explorer , when I'm installing module via magisk it's working fine but in explorer I'm unable to delete any system app like google home or other bloatware apps
I see you have already asked this question somewhere else. Why do you keep asking it everywhere? XDA is already becoming a mess, please don't make it worse.
