T95Z Plus 3GB/32GB unroot or non-rooted firmware image - Android Stick & Console AMLogic based Computers

There's been a few posts talking about this on various forums, but nothing I can see that indicates if anyone's managed to do it.
I wan't to unroot my T95Z 3GB/32GB so I can use various TV apps.
So far I have:
- using the shell, deleted the files "su", "su_daemon" and "sud" in /system/xbin. This removes root, but it still fails the SafetyNet check, presumably because there's some other remnant of root around somewhere which is detected. Should I be deleting anything else?
- installed Magisk (which regains root), but even with the various cloaking functionality enabled it still fails SafetyNet. I'm assuming that's because the stock firmware image (even after removal of the su files) is failing SafetyNet and Magisk can only preserve the SafetyNet status if it originally passed.
Does anyone have instructions to successfully unroot the T95Z Plus 3G/32GB please? ... or alternatively a unrooted firmware image that can be loaded onto it please?
Many thanks.

Search for osmosis unsu zip and try that, also magisk has an uninstall zip which I believe removes root
Sent from my LG-H910 using XDA Labs

idk if it's relative but in boot.img (kernel) su daemon service is written too in init.amlogic.board.rc file

Can't make a user app an system app. Link2SD/LuckyPatcher/TWRP storage error.

Hi guys and gals
I'm in need of some help guys. The solluction will probably be easy enough, however probably due to needing to translate the errors (dutch <-> english) I can't really find anything to help me...
The phone:
LG Nexus 5 24Gb and android 5.1.0 (LMY47D).
The goal:
Have a fake GPS app installed and hiding my root to spoof my location on android 5.1 with a security patch before the march 2017 patch (in compliance with this spoofing guide.
For this I need to do the following:
Unlock my phone
[*]Install TWRP
[*]Root
[*]Install fake GPS app ['GPS JoyStick Fake GPS Location' by The App Ninjas]
[*]Generate and rename a copy/privacymode of the app
Make the renamed copy/privacymode a system app (stuck on this step)
Instal Magisk (didn't get to this step)
Hide root with Magisk (didn't get to this step)
The errors:
I used Nexus Root Toolkit to install the androidversion 5.1 on my phone. The Hashcheck failed so I skipped it. Not sure if that's what's causing the error. For the installing of TWRP and Root is used: this guide from XDA. I installed the fake GPS app and made a renamed privacy/copy. Here comes the problem. I can't make that (or the original) a system app. I tried using Link2SD, luckypatcher and directly moving in TWRP. I get the following errors (note the screenshots are of trying to install the renamed privacymode/copy):
The screenshots:

My guess is that the programs can't access the storagespace on my phone for some reason.
The question:
Who can help me to get passed the 6th (and following) steps to achieve my goal with this phone? Please let me know if any more info is needed.
Ofcourse any and all help is greatly appreciated!
EDIT: Sorry guys, not sure why the images don't show up...

Rooted and mostly running well, but need help ID'ing a few strange things.

Hello All,
I recently decided to switch to stock rom + Magisk root instead of custom + SuperSU. I also wanted to try MicroG and cut out Big G as much as possible. Everything went smoothly for the most part. MicroG settings checklist is all green. Apps working properly, including push message ones. Calendar, contacts, and stuff are syncing correctly without Google. OSM is working fine as a replacement to GMaps.
But...
My device is mysteriously writing about 2-3gb of log data each day (yes, gigabytes). This fills up internal storage to the point where I need to restore a backup from recovery (TWRP) every few days. So, I downloaded a log checker to try and find out which app was being naughty:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Magisk pops up quite often, but I assume it's a rooted app via Magisk rather than Magisk itself? I also see "pid=3732", but when I look for a corresponding process ID in OS Monitor, there isn't one. I didn't see anything on the error types that kept popping up (1300, 1306, 1320, 1327, 1400) when I did some net searches for them. So, I'm a bit baffled on what to look for next or how to interpret the rest of the log data.
Could anybody advise me on what step to take next?
For reference, here is my device/status/info:
Model: N915D Samsung Galaxy Note Edge (Japan/SCL24)
OS: Marshmallow 6.0.1 (TWRP 3.2.3-0 via Odin flash)
Root: Yes (Magisk 18.0 via TWRP install)
GApps: MicroG (via Nanodroid Magisk Module/TWRP install)
I've done the following without any success in identifying the problem:
Disabled/debloated almost all non-essential services/apps (via OpenAPK)
Tried both v 2.0 and v 1.1 of the FakeGApps Xposed module
Tried disabling various Xposed and Magisk modules that I was planning to use (Greenify, XTouchWiz, etc.)
Deleted most non-system apps (AFWall, Nextcloud, browsers, VLC, etc.) to try and isolate the problem (i kept Magisk, Xposed, and some diagnostic tools)
Stared really really hard at the phone
Can't remember what else at the moment
If it were an option, I would just go with Lineage OS. However, none of the releases are compatible with the Japanese version of the Galaxy Note Edge apparently. So I need to figure this out, or shop for a different phone >.<
Thank you very much for reading and for any help you can provide!
FYI in case anybody's interested, problem solved (sort of) by downgrading Magisk from 18.0 to 17.3.

Take the SU-addon from lineage & flash it via twrp ?
I also was not able to get the device rooted. I tried 3 different ways all without success:
I downloaded Magisk v25.2 (Latest) from github, patched the boot.img from the installed ROM: lineage-17.1-20200717-UNOFFICIAL-i9300.zip, all with no errors. Instead of using fastboot I renamed the patched magisk_patched-25200_eb1Em.img to boot.img and created a tar file from it so I can flash it with Odin3 v3.14.1.exe (AP checkbox) as I did for the twrp recovery image. After this some signs of root access are visible. Root Checker Pro even shows my device as rooted. Still it says that the su binaries are missing and Magisk keeps showing as not installed.
I also tried CF-Auto-Root-m0-m0xx-gti9300.tar through odin
Finally I tried to install the UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.46.zip through the installed twrp recovery but the results stay the same. Root Checker Pro still shows that the Superuser Binary files are not installed.
If there is somebody who managed to get Magisk and/or root access fully working please let us know.

Creating Tablet image to transfer to others

Hi,
Newbie here so go easy!
Ive been changing the settings on an imported chinese tablet such as boot image, remove bloatware, download apps required, etc and it works great. However, I want to be able to create a full image of one tablet and transfer that to other tablets I buy so I dont have to manually do this every time. Basically a full backup and restore of everything on the tablet.
Can anyone assist on the best process to do this.
Thanks
If device's Android got rooted then you can perform a full NANDroid backup by means of either TWRP or FlashFire. FYI: ROOT is required for mounting all partitions as RW.
TWRP:

Hi, I worked out why flash fire was crashing, but some of the items in the app are greyed out so it doesn't allow a back up. I think its because I still have the standard recovery that came with the tablet instead of something like TWRP. And I cant find one online that will work.
Are there any other ways to do a full back up programmatically?

Question Ok so I'm confused about CPH2459

I'm very new at this but I have done a lot of research on on gaining root privileges on Android devices. That being said, I'm hitting some road blocks on the path to rooting my OnePlus N20 5G.
Roadblock #1: boot.img file. I know where it's at. But I can't get to it. EVERYTHING I've read involves being rooted before I can access the file. I've tried dumping incrementals despite being warned that it wouldn't work. I tried adb. And I've tried the DSU loader prerooted lineageOS 20. I can't get that file.
Roadblock #2 Gaining root in the gsi seems impossible also. So in order to actually use the root privileges I have to flash a superuser.zip. So wouldn't that be...a waste of time if I can't flash anything but a stock ROM to my actual device anyways?? Or is there a way I can load it directly to the lineageOS gsi?
Roadblock #3 OTA updates. When is the N20 supposed to get the full firmware update package instead of these incrementals? I'd just take the boot.img file from that if I could.
I don't know what all information I'd need to provide to get some accurate feedback but it's model number is CPH2459 and my firmware package is CPH2459_11_A.08 with the security patch dated 2022-09-05 oxygenOS version is 11.3.
Send help. I'm stuck and not even like chuck.
On my *S variants, install PHH-SU and you'll get basic root for apps. And even without it, shell root still works anyway.
So the backup partitions app is still saying it doesn't have root and shell root isn't working. What am I missing?
Dude I'm wondering if I'm in the same boat as you because I have the CPH2459_11_A.08 with the security patch dated 2022-09-05 oxygenOS version is 11.3 as well. Just like you. I've been stuck in the water trying to figure this out as well. Everyone seems to have the GN2200 and most of the guides here seem to be focused on that one.
Crud I need some details on this part and how to do it then.
Wait, I figured it out maybe. I went back and repeated these steps and then just sent the copy paste commands using telegram to my desktop pc on telegram (i know i know) and then pasted those exactly
Check it out.

Then this happened on my phone.
;D now we are cooking with fire.
When this is all done I owe some of you a beer.
