flashed serendipity last night, 5.7. I want to disable the lagfix (s) in it so i can flash supernova. How do i disable them? Can i just put my phone in download mode and odin to stock, will it remove the lagfix?
as long as you're flashing a kernel that supports your lagfix, you don't need to disable it.
the rom is: supernova, anyways can anyone tell me how to disable it on serendipity 5.7?
You do not need to but if you want to
Long press power
Select recovery
Select advanced ulk
Disable lagfix
Back twice
Reboot
select yes
you may need to flash back to stock since they are based on different roms.
Recommended Practice when moving between ROMs: Flash stock. Takes 10 mins, but well worth it.
for sure, i always do. i disabled lagfix, flashed to stock, root and all that stuff. wait till 100 percent battery and flash away
If you are using odin between flashes it will remove the lagfix. And, I am not aware of any kernel being widely used anymore that does not support ext4 so you really don't need to worry about it at all.
Hello !
At first I apologize for my English, I am French.
So i used the custom ROM Validus and this problem appears for every ROM. Like you know, when you root, you can't use snapchat and u need to login before you root your phone. So i installed Validus, i install all apps i need and login (included snapchat) but after that when i flash super su, my phone reset and i have a error message which flashes. In the message i have ".com.android" something and i'm obliged to shutdown the phone, reset the phone and re-install the ROM.
And this appears with all ROM (Tesla, Tuga etc...) and i don't know how can i use snapchat acutally.
I tried to disable super user in the app, doesnt work
I saw we can use xposed app but for 7.1.1, it's not possible actually
Any ideas ?
Thanks,
Snapchat discorvers root as it denies working on it. After flashing install snapchat and login. Then return to recovery and install SU afterwards. Possibly you have to use tools like RootCloak.

It's what i tried to do (without RootCloak) and when i do that, i lost all my data (like i wipe all data when i try to install SU...) but RootCloak works for 7.1.1 ? Because i already tried to flash Xposed, doesnt work (error 1)
Try SUHide. Though the data wipe seems odd.

I tried to flash suhide after flash ROM, doesnt work, the ROM don't charge (the loading of the ROM don't stop)
PS : I tried with Validus ROM and others, same things
Here's a workaround for Nexus 6. Maybe it's working on 3T as well. Something else I found here.
Nevertheless, the auto data wipe is strange. Did you clean or dirty flash?

I don't know what is dirty flash ? What i know is i alway wipe all data before install any custom ROM
But I found a solution. I installed Root Swich, it's a simple app which allows to deactivate the root and activate it as you want.
So i disabled root and install snapchat and login successfully.
But i want to understand why when i want to flash super su for any custom ROM i have a auto data wipe :/
Since your device is beyond my reach I can't help investigating the problem. Maybe the data is not really deleted but r/w permissions have just been modified and cannot be accessed any more. But anyway, I'm glad your found a workaround.

Thanks for your help anyway !
Now I just need someone who knows how can i fix the problem of data. Cause if one day i will need to flash something, it's gonna wipe the data of my phone
Maybe if i do a clean factory reset or something ? Cause i used my 3T a lot cause of this to find a solution so maybe something happenned when i tried so many things. (Test of ROM etc ...)
I have more information, when I install any custom ROM and after that I want to flash super su, wipe cache etc ... I boot on the ROM normally but i see my phone haved a factory reset and i have this ".com.android.phone has stopped" Impossible to remove the message and I am forced to wipe again data and reinstalll the ROM.
Conclusion : I can install ROM but after that, i can not do anything, if i do anything, BOUM, reset factory. And i don't understand why ....
I tried the last (Unofficial) TWRP but when i tried to boot on the ROM after flashing it, my phone didn't boot on the ROM but always on TWRP.
Maybe I brick my phone but i can use it, i don't have storage problem or others so ...
I'm lost ... Any ideas ?
up ?

Do you have this issue with only flashing super su or try to boot into recovery don't do anything and reboot check if it still reset everything.
Which recovery you are using?
The version

I have this issue only flashing super su, when i try to boot into recovery and then reboot into the ROM, nothing happened.
I use 3.0.3.1, when i tried 3.0.4.0 and flash a ROM, the phone only boot on recovery and not into the ROM
I'm actually having a similar issue. One day my phone was acting weird and I had to force reboot. I noticed after that I lost root. I've tried flashing SuperSU again, and it flashes fine but I still don't get root. This morning I upgraded to 4.0.3, and tried flashing root, and same thing no root.
The weirdest part is I can flash a custom kernel with TWRP 3.0.3.1 and the kernel flashes fine and I have the custom kernel, if I try flashing SuperSU, it flashes fine but I get no root AND it removes the custom kernel!!! Everything I'm using is the most updated too. What gives? I want root back....
I remember I tried this a few months back flashing EPIC (coming from Resurrection Remix) and was unaware that MIUI would try encrypting. It tried (and failed) to encrypt on first boot and I was forced to wipe the whole data partition. Luckily I had everything backed up and just needed to copy it back, even though it took hours.
Question is, can I flash MIUI (specifically one of the weekly releases) and block it from trying to encrypt? I read that flashing Magisk disables encryption by default, but I just wanted to check first. Also, I have data/cache switched to F2FS, so I'll be flashing the Psychedelic kernel immediately after MIUI for compatibility as AFAIK MIUI doesn't support F2FS.
Is MIUI > Psy > Magisk enough or do I need to flash one of those no-verity/encrypt/lazyflasher zips too? I still have the important stuff backed up but I'd rather not have to take hours copying ~200GB of media back to data if it goes haywire.
Cheers.
EDIT: So I went with MIUI > Psy > no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0 > Magisk. I got the same 'encryption failed - reset device' message as I did before which mean data must be wiped to proceed. I rebooted into TWRP and formatted data, then flashed the same sequence as before. This time it booted normally and it didn't try to encrypt. I don't know why it tried the first time (forcing me to wipe everything) but the second time it didn't bother. I'm done with my quarterly return to MIUI - back to AICP for me.

AICP to MIUI/Epic is no different than anything else. You just flash it. The challenge comes from trying to keep the unencrypted status when doing so without having to transfer all your media off/onto the phone.

If you go into Settings > Security and it says 'Encrypt Phone' then you're still unencrypted.

I'm still unencrypted, epic flashed everything I didn't do anything. It flashed dm-verity and SuperSU.
Hello XDA community ,i owning an s7 edge ( SM-G935F)and i encountered a strange problem.
So recently i decided to return to stock rom , so i made a clean install of the latest firmware with odin , everything worked smooth and fine , and then i decided to try root it with magisk
thought odin with the patched boot.img method . (I did not want to use the recovery method)
So i did all the steps , i extracted the boot img , from the official firmware , placed inside the phone and patched it with magisk manager as .tar with only force encryption ticked , then i moved the patched boot img in my desktop and flashed it thought odin (AP) , flashing was passed and my phone rebooted , then here happens the problem , after the phone ask for my sim pin , a message appears saying something like authentication error , and that my system needs to be factory resetted ,and that i will lose all my date in the proccess ( forgive me for not including a screenshot , and not stating exactly what the message says , but i translated it as english is not the native language of the firmware) .
So i did flashed back the stock boot img, and the phone booted properly and without problems , then i tried again to make a patched boot img , but this time ticking both boxes ( dm variety2.0 ) ., then flashed in odin , and the same problem happened again . And then i reflashed back the stock boot img so i could use my phone till i find the problem.
If is needed i can replicate the issue and post screenshots but they wont be in english as the message appears in the roms native language.
Does anyone have a clue what might causing this ??? I have to mention that i do not want to use a custom recovery like twrp because that will need to wipe my data on phone(because of the stock encryption , i will have to reformat the data ext4 partition) , so twrp flashing method is not an option.
Any help will be gratefull !
Thanks in advance.
So i tried again , this time i left both boxes unticked in the magisk advanced settings and see if i get different results. Same think happened again ,phone locked right after the boot . I ve took a screenshot of the lock message
imgur.com/a/KXHr1Gk (make sure to add https:// before the link )
Noone got any clue ???
Still cannot resolve this issue , if anyone can share his opinion i will be gratefull
Bump
Have you asked for help in your device's forum? Apparently there's no-one here that has an answer...
Hello Guys,
After trying around for days i decided to turn to a Forum to seek help.
I have the following Problem:
After trying for Ages to install Magisk on my Samsung XCover 4 (because there is no TWRP or CWM recovery for this Phone) i finally managed too find out how to get the boot.img and install magisk and later that day also some modules(For example Smalipatcher). But two days ago there was an option to update Magisk, and i tried it. The thing that happend was that my Phone crashed after updating and i was stuck in a bootloop which was going from reboot automatically in the system recovery/bootloader and so on. I had to reflash stockrom and resetted everythig to the way it was before updating. BUT: there was a Issue. After reflashing stock and rerooting my old patched_boot.img.tar with old magisk (v.18.1) i was not able to install modules anymore. After trying to install Terminal Emulator the Log said:
-extracting module files
-Setting permissions
-Done
And i was curios, because last time i installed it, it was very much longer, and after checking installed modules, it was nowhere to find. Same thing with Smalipatcher. nowwhere to find as well.
What can i do?? I really need to get the old ,,Working´´ Magisk with modules back for some spoofing shenanigans.
i hope someone can help me.
If you need my stock rom or something else to help me, im gonna provide it asap.
thanks
