Anyone had any luck getting viper4android to work with Mate 10 Pro
I tried several methods but the driver does not install
Thanks
waiting for it
Tried several things like flashing Viper4android with pre-installed drivers, which did not work as the app tells me to install the drivers again but fails at busybox not found.

What recovery did you try flashing with?
I used the app FlashFire from Chainfire. You can find it on Play Store. Make sure when you flash something with that app, select mount system R/W

Where do you get the option to select mount system R/W, once you start flashing?

Yes, when you select the zip-file it will automatically show you some Misc-Options, where you can select to mount system read write.
No One else getting anywhere with this?

I just tried flashing with flash fire and it looked like it went through fine but it's nowhere to be found on phone after the reboot.

Did you select Mount System R/W? Otherwise it will not work. If its still not working, then I do not know why. For me it worked but viper4android asked my always for installing busybox even though it is installed.

If you haven't removed Verity on system it would remove what was flashed on reboot. You can do this in /vendor/etc/fstab.kirin970
And you should remove verity off of the other partitions as well.
Etoerh way it probably won't work. I manually installed everything yesterday, including driver. This worked fine on Mate 9 Nougat without even installing driver.
And make sure you have busybox. I can't remember if it had busybox or su as a hardcoded path... I have su in /sbin/ and busybox applets symlinked to /sbin/ from su.d. Still no go. :/
I'll try some more later.
And a question, permissive is usually required, can you guys type in a terminal: setenforce 0
Or setenforce permissive?
I get invalid parameter, so Huawei might've tightened security.
With P10plus oreo setenforce do not work in terminal. I try to install viper4android too.

Don't know why but Viper is having a hard time with Oreo. No problems on any phone with Nougat.

I had it many times. AdAway is working very wele. Maybe you have not full rooted phone. Use MyRoM it is full rotted and AdAway is preinstalled and many others additions.
Hey...
First step is normal root. If you are ready you have to delete the immutable.list on system. Then you can use adaway.
Booth ways need busybox! Install it before you try to delete immutable.
Make it with my tool - easy update and adjust (http://forum.xda-developers.com/asc...eandadjust-t2941186/post56774286#post56774286) or make it manuelly with your PC and ADB.
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
cd system
chattr -R -i *
rm –f /system/set_immutable.list
lsattr (to see if it's still there)
On my device with stock Rom it works well!
Thank you, it works like a charm!!!

Wich way you have choosed?
Your script, cause command prompt returned an error when trying to change attributes, the reason was that adb hadnt have su permissions and for some reason supersu didnt prompt me to grant them. But with your script supersu prompt me to give adb su permissions and so i did, after that it worked.
Strange dont you think?

Follow this guide to flash SuperSU on the latest version of android wear for your watch, it should have the same OS compatibility as normal SuperSU and should work all the way upto android 7.1.1
(from PC)
1.Unlock the bootloader if not already unlocked
(Make sure to set up device with phone after unlocking bootloader otherwise no boot!)
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot oem unlock
2.flash TWRP for your device (REQUIRES read only access to system!, will post working builds in post below)
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recoveryname.img
3.Download SuperSU with busybox YDS included HERE and move it to watch with adb push to /sdcard while TWRP is booted and then install as normal zip
Code:
adb push nameofzip.zip /sdcard/
4.IGNORE SYSTEM NOT INSTALLED Boot watch to system and Now your root apps from 5.1 should work perfect. THERE WILL BE NO SUPER SU APP, IT HAS NOT BEEN PORTED TO ANDROID WEAR
REMEMBER squashfs is read only even with root so don't bother trying to modify system files like the build.prop.
If you would like to modify system use any Linux distro and unsquash the system then resquash it (will make guide if enough interest)
If you would like to change pixel density perform this command in either adb shell or a terminal emulator:
Code:
wm density <dpi>
Please leave thanks if it helped!
Feel free to submit links to twrp for squashfs watch with model name, codename and original developer's name

In regards to Busybox on Rails, I compared the link provided and Google Play (which I assume is latest), they are the same versions. Is there a trustworthy place to find the old version suggested?
Not sure if I will need it, just covering my bases. Upgrading to 6.0.1 tonight.
Thanks.

Unless I am missing something, system access is needed for the LG G Watch.
Tried with TWRP 3.0.0 and 2.8.7, SuperSU 2.65 flash was successful in spite of /system not mounting (notice was given in red letters), rebooted, with same result across both versions:

Huh I used a modified version of the latest TWRP from a member that allowed the system to be mounted read only as squashfs is a read only file system ie. The system image has to be rebuilt to make changes. I assumed that since supersu is now system less it those not require system access but maybe it those but I really didn't see the use of mounting it read only as it cannot make any changes to system. Will edit thread thanks for info. Link to squashfs twrp above
It is strange though the other poster managed to root without system access.

The third time I flashed to get the log, I attempted to mount /system as read only, since it didn't mount properly otherwise. The onscreen messages looked the same anyway...successful flash, but could not mount /system. And upon leaving TWRP, it warned that no OS was installed. Nothing different for all intents and purposes.
Thanks, I will try your TWRP and report back.
UPDATE:
Your TWRP made all the difference:
Code:

SuperSU is now system less if you haven't been following it recently so system access is not required also bits of supersu are stored in the kernel disk and others just at /data. Busybox is stored with the SU mounted image to /su/xbin once installed via the app

Hi, long story short, I want to make some apps system apps with Link2SD.
I tried using LO14 or some other LO14 based rom and just can't. I read som ewhere that it may be because I have no permissions to write on the system folder. I tried starting TWRP wizard again and setting it to be able to write with no success.
Any help?
I am rooted with magisk working just fine.
thanks!

As I've seen, Some apps don't work well with other SU except for SuperSU. Get rooted using superSU, everything should work just fine. You can always Uninstall and go back to magisk once you're done.

It's better to follow the procedure you mentioned Uninstall magisk, install supersu then install magisk again... But only flashing superSU zip will also work I guess. You can give it a try. I've done it once I guess

the error is the following..

Thats the error. Tried with titanium backup pro version and it gets stuck "PROCESING" the thing... It uninstall the app I want to move to system app, but then never finishes processing..
I also used a app called mount "/system ro/rw". I grant it superuser permissions and when I hit the "mount /system rw" a message appears that says; "Your device might not be rooted or is it not compatible!"

Do this from terminal emulator (don't use GUI apps for things like this, they hide important errors most of the time):
Code:
$ su
# lsof /system
And watch for processes that hold the mountpoint.
Code:
# kill <that process id, one by one>
if you're sure they're not doing anything important, then try:
Code:
mount -o rw,remount /system
again.
P.S.: you might need to install BusyBox, I don't know if lsof is available out of the box.

You need to have root and any terminal installed.
Start terminal and type
Code:
su
mount -o rw,remount /system
It will be remounted RW without any zip flashing and rebooting, realtime.

thanks man! ? I tried that but my phone reboots after i entered the command and my phone is rooted ?
Sorry for the dig up but i am also interrested in this.
I am using an app (NFC Card Emularo) which requires access to /vendor/etc/libnfc-nxp.conf but cannot access it -> the partition is reported to be "read only" by the app. I was able to use the mount command but i am not sure it changes anything since the partition doesnt seem to be writable anyway.
My rig : OnePlus 3T / Oreo (Resurrection Remix OS) / Magisk 16 (also tried 16.2)
Error on remount /system
/system permission can't get full permission
Hi I am using the same app and facing the same problem you have. I have a moto Z 2016 and using the app well, on moto Z2 ,the same problem as you are having. I tried to create file in the dest folder where the app need to modifiy file and success. Still digging into that.
Has anyone been able to solve this? I too use NFC Card Emulator and it's been working fine for a while but then I got the same problem. I don't know what caused it, either an update to the app, LineageOS, Magisk or TWRP. I'm using a OnePlus 5T.
Since Magisk is mounting it's systemless mask over /system and /vendor, directly modifying/mounting these as rw can be an issue...
If you're not using any Magisk modules, you should be able to make it work by just enabling Core Only Mode in the Manager settings.
Otherwise, I would try by taking whatever file it is that the app is trying to modify and make a Magisk module out of it. This way the app should have full write access to the file, and you'll have the benefit of keeping your system untouched.

There is an option to generate a Magisk module from the app and that's actually what I used until things broke. After some testing, going back to the March 5 build of LineageOS 15.1 and getting version 3.0.9 of NFC emulator from Aptoide made it work again, but any version 3.1.0 or up doesn't and 3.0.9 does not work on latest LineageOS (March 26 because f that April fools crap). I also tried all the latest LineageOS/TWRP/NFC Emulator on my old Nexus 6P and there, everything works as expected.
So what I get from this is that the fault is either in LineageOS or the app and it's device specific.
An update to this. LineageOS version does not matter as I was able to get NFC Card Emulator version 3.0.9 running on the latest LineageOS. If you download version 3.0.9 from Aptoide it will work once and then stop working, later versions won't work at all. So the best current solution is to use version 3.0.9 of the app and on each reboot after the first install, clear data for the app and it will work again.

I can confirm this.
I was having problems with the lastest version of NFC Card Emulator, so I downloaded and installed version 3.0.9 and everything works fine.

In theory, if I temporarily disable all of my modules and enable Core Only Mode, would I be able to access the system as RW?

That is a two and a half year old post you're quoting. A lot have happened in that time...
Core only mode is being removed from Magisk and there are plenty of devices that have permanently ro partitions.

So the answer to your question would be a definite maybe.

yes. the android toybox/ toolbox used by blu has been altered and the mount function is not working properly. Same issue some have had with adaway, and other mods. The solution should be to install busybox and fully symlink it to /sbin.
I have not done it but based on your reported error it should be the correct solution.

Ok so what should be symlink then I thought busybox install took care of the symlinking. What's the command too? Also I'm trying to use Link2SD instead of the lovely Android m adoptive sdcard stuff basically keep sd as portable while using Link2SD so I can have my PC see the fat32 partition if i needed.

the symlinking is done from in the bustbox installer.
so, you still have problem with busybox installed?
not so sure what to try next. Ah, check in the list of installed links for busybox and see if "mount" is shown as installed.
you can try to install the "toybox" from V12. It is untested method and you would need to know how to undo if needed.
link to the twrp install of that file is in my earlier post.

Got it to work had to tell BusyBox installer to overwrite and symlink it apparently it's unchecked by default as its "not recommended to replace the systems version" :silly: go figure maybe under normal circumstances with a correctly functioning mount its bad but it fixed it stericson BusyBox installer did others weren't tested but I assume same result. But thanks for your help greatly appreciated it.
Just a note to anyone who comes across this thread if you use Titanium Backup at all don't use "BusyBox X" it seems to break T.B.'s ability to detect root this might be just magisk... or both SuperSU and magisk. but i had this happen with other devices some on SuperSU Some magisk but un-install "BusyBox X" (install any other busybox) and problem goes away not sure what direct cause is in "BusyBox X" might be because X is 1.26.1 and others are 1.27.1 ( ATM ) seems its always one version behind.

yes but because of the way we have to initially unlock/root the r1 it doesn't pass safety net with magisk unless android is not passing safety net again with magisk. but like i mentioned some things can break root "busy box X" with certain apps. also xposed framework systemless and normal seem to work well.
