Hi folks,
i hope i im the right Forum as it seams more a xposed as supersu problem.
I have a Moto X Style rooted with System-less SuperSU 2.78 and Xposed "xposed-v86.1-sdk23" by romracer, Stock ROM 6.0.
Just got a notification that there is a security update available, proceeded but won´t flash. Stops with Error Code 7.
I thought OTA would work with system-less.
Tried also with disable Xposed. Same result. By the way when the phone reboots for flashing it goes into The Recover TWRP 3.0.2 GUI. Anyway i saw the error when switching to the log view.
Any idea whats wrong or i miss?
May i have to restore custom recovery, and if so can i flash the stock recovery with the existing TWRP or do i have to go ADB?
Thanks
Thomas
You have to flash stock recovery image (and probably also boot image) for OTA to work.
Simply use fastboot to flash those. Leave system intact.
Thanks, will do so.
Hi everyone,
When I first received my phone a few days ago, I unlocked and rooted it. But then I noticed I wasn't passing safetynet so I unrooted it.
Eversince, when I try to reroot it, it won't boot. It stays stuck on the boot animation (I waited up to 20 minutes).
If I reflash the ROM, it boots. If I reflash the ROM, wipe davlik & cache, and root, it stays stuck on the boot animation.
So my guess was that it was not ROM related, nor cache related, so it must be caused by something on my data partition. But I don't want to wipe it if I have another way to fix it.
Any idea on what might be preventing my phone from booting when I root it?
Thanks!
after root do you have flashed superSU?

Well I flashed superSU to root the phone!
But when I do it, it won't boot.
Probably image got corrupted, Download the zip of the rom "oxygen os zip", clean flash it through recovery, try to root again

When I flash if without root it boots perfectly, are you sure about the image being corrupted?

As you said "it stucks on boot", many times the phone gets stuck on boot when the image is corrupted , its called soft brick. Try downloading the zip file of os, flash it through recovery. The img is probably facing some errors while booting with root access. Are you nougat user? 7.1? And are you using default recovery?
As most people have said here already, in general this should work. So which version of oxygenos are you running? And what recovery? Also, after flashing Supersu, you should not wipe caches as far as I know (forgot the source). Re-download the image, and flash it and directly after flash supersu (both in twrp) and your problem should be solved.

OK I am sorry I was not clear enough, this is exactly what I have been doing!
I have TWRP, when I only flash the 3.5.4 OOS it works perfectly. When I flash OOS 3.5.4 and superSU it doesn't boot.
So the image doesn't seem corrupted, I re-downloaded it.
Is it clearer?

Have you cleared caches before the flash? And are you using the Full OOS 3.5.4? And I assume the most recent Supersu? I did exactly that 2 days ago. Using the full OOS zip that is in one of the threads here on XDA (can't link on phone right now).
Btw. It can bootloop a few times and take awhile once you flash both.. If that doesn't work I guess it's beyond my knowledge. You might want to try if the same thing happens with 3.5.3

I don't have my 3T yet to verify, but did you flash the zip which disables encryption and dm-verity?
EDIT: From the TWRP thread, step 10: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3t/development/recovery-twrp-oneplus-3t-t3507308
Any update to this? I have the exact same problem; clean flash 3.5.4 OOS (tried it via twrp, adb sideload and MsmDownloadTool) then flash SuperSU via twrp (tried multiple SuperSU versions) and all results in sitting at the boot animation. I've let it sit for 2 hours and it never gets beyond boot animation. No matter what, I can't get SuperSU to work. However, I have no problem getting phh superuser to boot up. Any idea why SuperSU won't boot for me?

I got to the bottom of my problem (but did not solve it somehow) by formatting and trying every possibility. I lost all my data :crying:
So here is what happens:
-I start with a clean ROM, root it, install kernel, everything works fine EXCEPT for safetynet that won't pass even with root switch
-I try to install suhide 0.55, the phone won't start anymore (stays on boot animation, tried to wait all night)
AND HERE IS THE WEIRD THING.
-If I dirty flash the rom to start over, it boots, if then I flash SuperSU, it won't boot!! As if suhide was still in the data partition and preventing the phone from booting!!
So it means that if I try to install suhide once, I am not able to boot with root anymore... I need to format my data partition and start all over again.
Hmm. My issue is slightly different, I guess. I'm not even attempting suhide, just SuperSU. No matter what, I can't boot up once I flash SuperSU. Guess I'll give it another try with the new 2.79 sr2 and oos4.
Thanks!

Did you have any luck with this? I'm having the same issue. Flash the 4.0.2 update and boots fine. Flash SuperSU or phh (I've tried both!) and I just sit at the boot animation for hours until I get angry and restore nandroid to 3.5.4.

No, never got it working. Upgraded to 4.0.2 and never looked back.
Maybe you already tried this version.. Otherwise...
Question for those you you way smarter than I'll ever hope to be. I randomly lost root and TWRP on my 3T and I have no idea how this happened.
Quick (or not so quick) background - I was stock rooted OOS 4.1.6. I disabled AdAway for a bit yesterday to gain access to something it was blocking (done it many times) and when I re-enabled it my phone was stuck in a boot loop afterwards. Weird, but not concerning. I booted into TWRP and restored a backup. OOS 4.1.3 was my latest backup, so after successfully loading that up, I flashed the full 4.1.6 OTA and SuperSu as I've done before to update. Worked fine. Was adding my preferred mods via Substratum and Magisk and I messed up. Couldn't get Substratum to work properly and couldn't get Magisk to update to 13.1. I verified I had root, which I did. Went back to TWRP and reflashed 4.1.6 and SuperSU. When my phone was up and running again I didn't have root. Weird, so I tried again, still couldn't get SuperSU to flash properly. Got frustrated and figured I haven't had a clean install since getting the device in January. Every update I've flashed via TWRP has been dirty. So, factory reset, blah, blah, blah. Done it plenty of times with many devices. Flashed the OTA and SuperSu again, but noticed SuperSu failed. Rebooted recovery to try again, but it went to the stock recovery. My phone is working fine now, but I'm without root and I no longer have TWRP.
What might have caused this to happen? And how can I avoid it in the future? I know how to get it back (I'll do it after work) but it's frustrating.
What version of TWRP are you using? A few of the past versions have been having problems.
If you're already using Magisk anyways, just flash the Magisk zip and use that as your rooting solution. IIRC, the more recent versions of Magisk are no longer compatible with SuperSU anyways.

I was using 3.0.4-1. Never had an issue before. But after I factory reset my phone and clean flashed the 4.1.6 update I ended up with the stock recovery. Unless I'm mistaken, I can't flash Magisk until I have TWRP again. I know how to get it back, I was more curious as to how this may have happened in the first place. What would have caused my root and custom recovery to disappear?

My mistake, I meant to ask SuperSU version, not TWRP. If SuperSU failed to root your phone after dirty flashing OOS (even if there was not error message), OOS will replace your recovery with the stock one.

I was using version 2.8.2. Regardless, you answered my question as to how it happened in the first place, so thanks.
So... was tired of some miscellaneous issues with 4.5.0 (rooted w/ Magisk, TWRP recovery) and decided to finally jump to 5.0. Failed initially in TWRP (was using stock 3.1.xx), moved to the OOS internal upgrade option, and actually managed to boot into 5.0 (albeit stock recovery and no root) after that succeeded.
Powered off, connected to PC, fastboot flashed TWRP 3.1.1 blu spark, rebooted into recovery, reflashed blue spark img, flashed OnePlus3TOxygen_28_OTA_060_all_1711160447.zip (went fine AFAIK, "script succeeded, 1.0000"). Cleared Dalvik/cache, flashed SuperSU v2.82... and this is where things got weird. First, flashing SuperSU failed once at the point of compressing the ramdisk. rebooted into TWRP, tried again, and it finished without error messages. Wiped Dalvik/cache once more and rebooted. This time, I got a permanent boot where my OP3T appeared to freeze at the first OP logo on a black background and would go no further even after 10+ minutes. Swapped out my SuperSU zip with a download straight from their website, same frozen boot. Redownloaded OTA_060_all, same thing. Wiped dalvik/cache/system before each attempt, no luck.
Gave up, fastboot -w, reflashed TWRP blu spark, and now even just drying to flash the plain OTA_060 zip results in a "no OS installed" when I try to reboot. When I try to flash either Magisk v15 or SuperSU 2.82, TWRP freezes entirely in the first steps, crashes to a white notification icon, and requires a long power button hold to reboot. I am lost at this point. AFAIK, my OP3T is basically a blank, wiped slate, and I've never experienced full-on TWRP freezes while flashing before blu spark.
In the meantime, I've installed OTA_057 (4.5.1) instead, thankfully without a bootloop, but fully wiped any suggestions?
I've jumped from Nougat to Oreo too. These are my steps: while on nougat open the TWRP recovery (stock TWRP); MAKE A COMPLETE BACKUP; updated it to the latest version (3.2.1.0.- if you have it installed then there's no need for this step); complete wipe; install the OTA using USB OTG; boot to system; run the first setup; (now TWRP might got overwritten just reboot to recovery, if it reboots to TWRP great, move on, if not then reboot to system and install TWRP using ADB); reboot to TWRP recovery; flash Magisk 15 (or SuperSU, but I don't use it so I can't say if it works); flash kernel if you want; reboot to system; check if Magisk/SuperSU works and that's it. At this point I've made another complete backup just in case I skrew up something in the future. Hope I helped! Good luck!
Are you using supersu 2.82 SR5.
I had same problem with my 3T going from nougat to oreo.

Yep, I believe that's exactly the version I tried I eventually just gave up after doing the complete device wipe through fastboot commands, am now running 5.0 with no problems but have the stock recovery and am not rooted :/ Now I just need to make a backup and then I can mess around and try and find a root method that doesn't basically soft brick my phone...
Even I am running OOS 5.0
The way I rooted is:
Flashed oos 5.0 using TWRP (https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=27381&task=get)
Boot normally
Reboot to TWRP, flash TWRP using fastboot if you find stock recovery. Then boot to TWRP.
After you in the TWRP recovery, flash superSU 2.82 SR5
Then flash suhide (it helps you hide root from apps which are a bit finicky about root).
This works for me.

Unleashed by my rooted OP3T in 8.0
My phone is an Motorola 4G XT1072 Thea. Custom ROM LineageOS 14.1.
I wanted to change SuperSU with Magisk root. I therefore removed SuperSU and rebooted to recovery (TWRP) for flashing Magisk. I got an error code 1 flashing Magisk. I tried to reboot to recovery but I couldn't. It just reboots. It's like my recovery has gone. I can't even do a factory reset. I tried to reinstall TWRP through ADB but it's waiting for device forever. ADB recognizes my device. Anybody got some advice?
I managed to get my recovery back by deleting all moto drivers on windows and reinstalling them, then I could reinstall TWRP through ADB. But I still get error 1 when flashing Magisk. Is that because I need to flash a stock boot.img? If so do I then flash boot.img and thereafter Magisk.zip?
It all depends on what that "error 1" is actually about.
If you didn't restore the stock boot image after removing SuperSU, then that's a likely culprit...
If you want to know for sure you're going to have to share a recovery log with details about the error.
