After updating my dream to cyanogenmod 5.0.8 ds, I realized a few problems. I have reflashed a few times, and a major gripe I have is that I can't seem to update the su binary to the latest version, it keeps failing at "gaining root access". I have also had to use the superuser update fixer to install the latest superuser version. The reason I want to install it is so that the stericson busybox installer will work, and thus metamorph will work, as it relies on the user having a semi-recent version of busybox.
P.S. I currently want to stick to cm5, as it is otherwise stable and full features. Any suggestions for another rom had better be convincing and involve a minimum of flashing.
I have the danger spl and cyanogen+jf recovery
Not sure if it's exactly what you need, but have a look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=682828 I've noticed someone was talking about the Dream as well...
just try and uninstall super user all together and download superuser or super su from market, then try to update busbox through market app
I was able to get the su binary to update, but I'm not sure how. However, superuser is now denying everything, even freshly installed apps. What is going on?

That is from a really early version of superuser, and it doesn't seem to fully answer my question, sorry.
can you uninstall current superuser and reinstall latest from market?
That is what I've already done. I couldn't update the su binary without doing so. All that cm5 seemed to have was the "superuser permissions" app.
When you go into the app do you have permissions denied? If your in an adb shell does it allow you su?

When I go into any root app, superuser gives me a toast that says { } has been denied superuser permissions. The superuser app itself seems to have root access, though.
Try to just do it again, there's no reason I can think of this will happen
Just uninstall and reinstall su app, maybe try supersu, then use a busybox app to update. If this doesn't work again than try to manually do it

Now, every time I try to do it, even after freshly flashing cm5, my phone does a boot loop.
Maybe try to extract contents of ROM and swap with new superuser

At this point, I'm probably just going to try to get cm6 going on this thing.
Sure, check your other thread, I'll upload tonight

I was checking out the Root Thread for S6 and realized that my Edge's ROM version matched one on there except for the G925 vs G920. Would that root work on my Edge's similar ROM?
Never EVER try to root your phone unless it meets ALL the requirements! Mine is a SAMSUNG-SM-G925V. Unless that root is developed for a SAMSUNG-SM-G925V, you're taking a chance on bricking your phone. There are things you can do to remove bloatware and improve battery performance, which are a couple of the main reasons for installing a different ROM. I've done it myself and find battery performance has drastically improved. Do some research and you'll find what settings you can change and which apps you can either uninstall or disable. I'm happy with the snappiness and performance of this phone and find with some simple adjustments, it makes this phone even better. We will just have to be patient to see if the bootloader can be unlocked. Who knows when or if that will happen any time soon! Hope that addresses your question.

I didn't realize that was the case and went ahead installing the apk. Bad news, it didn't work. Good news, the app tells you it doesn't work for G925V yet.

There's been an update. Version 3.2 of the app works fine on current Verizon S6 Edge software. I currently am sitting on one with root.

That's awesome news, thanks! I'll try it out when I get home today.
Yup - just used the updated APK and it worked like a charm. Went ahead and swapped out King for SuperSU.. that too works great.
How did you swapped king for super su?

Check out the Q&A area of the PINGPONGROOT thread.. its all listed in there. I copied/pasted from it, but it might not transfer the code exactly correct..
http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s6/general/root-pingpongroot-s6-root-tool-t3103016
Q: I'd like switching to SuperSU, what shall I do?
A: Kinguser does not have a "swtich" function. Follow these steps to do so manually: (if you are not familiar with adb, see this version: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...&postcount=269)
1. Download supersu.7z and extract it. You will get the files needed to install Supersu.
2. Using adb to push su and busybox (if not installed) to /data/local/tmp.
Code:
adb push su /data/local/tmp
adb push busybox /data/local/tmp
3. Start a su session and run the following commands:
Code:
mount -o remount,rw /system
cat /data/local/tmp/su >/system/xbin/daemonsu && chmod 0755 /system/xbin/daemonsu
cat /data/local/tmp/busybox >/system/bin/busybox && chmod 0755 /system/bin/busybox
daemonsu -d &
Then keep the session running.
4. Open Kinguser, go to Settings -> Root authorization setting -> Remove Root permission. Click to remove root permission. Your su session should be still running.
5. Uninstall Kinguser app.
6. Go back to the su session and run following commands to replace su and cleanup:
Code:
cat /data/local/tmp/su >/system/xbin/su && chmod 0755 /system/xbin/su
busybox chattr -ia /system/bin/ddexe
busybox chattr -ia /system/bin/ddexe_real
cat /system/bin/ddexe_real >/system/bin/ddexe
busybox chattr -ia /system/xbin/ku.sud
rm /system/xbin/ku.sud
rm /system/xbin/pidof
rm /system/xbin/supolicy
7. Install Supersu apk
8. Open Supersu apk to update files.
9. Reboot.

rooted. has anyone installed TWRP? what's the best way to go about doing that? TWRP manager doesn't list verizon specific s6.
I want to flash the no-deep-sleep fix
I believe you can't install a custom recovery yet as it will trip knox. Might want to go through the posts on the root thread.
Thanks. Yeah sorry it's a bit hard to follow the latest news since there are a thousand threads on all the s6/edge forums talking about the same issue. If the recovery is untouched, do we need to worry about the deep sleep problem? I've read it was caused by recovery.
[Terminal] App Systemizer
Terminal App Systemizer systemizes Apps systemlessly! This is inspired by App Systemizer by stangri. I then decided to make a script/UI in Terminal emulator for it to make 'app systemizing' easier.
How to use:
Install from recovery
Type su and
Code:
systemize
in Terminal emulator or adb shell (use -nc, -a, -d, refer below)
Systemize Chosen App/APK!
And reboot to apply changes
OPTIONS:
** If you don't want those colors, use -nc.
Code:
systemize -nc
** To directly systemize (without ui) a given package name/s, use -a
Code:
systemize -a com.oasisfeng.greenify org.adaway
** To directly systemize (without ui) a given apk/s, use -d
Code:
systemize -d /sdcard/example.apk /sdcard/example2.apk
** Uploading logs
Go to the menu and type `logs`, this will upload the log files of this module and will generate a link. Send that
Alternatively, Send `/cache/terminal_debloater-verbose.log` here. I'll examine it for problems and will try to fix it.

HERE'S A LITTLE VIDEO ON HOW TO USE IT:
F.A.Q
Q. Why do I need to systemize apps?
A. Some apps provide extra functionality as a system app (like Greenify, Launchers, etc). And if you just want an app to be a system app for no reason .
Q. Is A/B Devices (Pixel, Essential, MI A1 etc.) supported?
A. YES
Q. What's the advantage of using this over the other systemizers?
A. This one is very light weight (since it's just a script). And it's also very versatile and supports almost all devices.
Q. Something's not right??
A. Report in this thread...
When a systemizied app is updated, how do you re-systemize it? Do you just rerun the terminal UI and choose the updated app and reboot? After reboot, does the updated app replace the old one?

No, it's like when you update a system app from play store, it stays as a system app.
No need to do anything if it's updated :good:

What if we wanted to use this as a tool to save space on internal memory? Once the systemized app is updated, it would take space on internal storage right? Anyway to put it back into system?

Apks are not stored in internal mem. It's stored in /data. This only affects apks so i think saving space is out of this module's fuctionality.

Some users got this problem with my snapshot updater module & I had to remove "pm" from it... I think is a common problem with Nougat, because in Lollipop & Marshmallow all is fine... Do you may enable all usb debug options under developer settings in Android?

I'm not trying to get on you, or burst your bubble, so please don't get mad. I want to know what the difference between this, and titaniumbackup pro? It has a function to turn user apps into system apps. I'd rather use this, cause titanium can get wonky sometimes.
I don't know if this is right place to post about however, my working project with SuperSu is no more working with MagiskV14.
Issue:1
In my java code I call few shell scripts and binaries from system(e.g; system/bin/input) using java runtime Api however, they are wont execute even with "su" command. the Scripts are working fine via adb shell but not via java code.
looking for some help here.

Do you pass SAFETYNET with v19.0 ? If not, there's something wrong in your config.
Oh... it's using Lockin Company's Liapp(https://liapp.lockincomp.com/ )...
It's not a problem like misconfig since it detects Magisk itself. Liapp updates frequently to apply new root (especially Magisk) detection methods, so it's hard to bypass it.
(Magisk 17.3+ bypasses 5.0.0, 18.2+ bypasses 5.0.1, but 5.0.2+ cannot be bypassed currently.)
same here.cantplay it on root device,well that sucks.Im not gonna sacrifice my magisk for this game,not worth it
I made a bypass script for it (and all other apps using Liapp and UDS detection method)!
Download it on https://github.com/Ingan121/UDSBypass/blob/master/udsbypass and run 'su -c sh /sdcard/Download/udsbypass com.ActionSquare.GiganticX/com.epicgames.ue4.GameActivity'. Make sure you added this app to MagiskHide.

Did you download it in Download folder? Then it should be started by 'sh /sdcard/Download/udsbypass' (without quotes).
Also, you can copy it to /sbin, chmod 755, and then just run 'udsbypass'.

It can be used if you adjust the script to check for /sbin in $PATH and then add it if it isn't already there.
Or adjust the script to use the absolute paths to the Magisk binary, but that is a lot less elegant and won't work if the paths change.
