Viper4Android Help - Amazon Fire Phone

I've been trying to get Viper4Android driver installed but it keeps failing.
I've tested CM11 and Stock but no go when I hit install driver. I'm guessing it may have something to do with SE Linux as I have to set it to permissive but haven't had any luck with trying to change it as apps do not detect it.
Just looking to see if anyone else had any luck with the app on their Fire Phone?

I had it working without problems on CM-11. SELinux is disabled on that ROM, so no drawback here, no need to change anything...
Before I annoy you with more stories, tell us which file you used exactly to install V4A on your device.
I had to use SELinuxModeChanger on other devices (they used "enforcing") because they didn't offer a setting to change the SELinux mode.

I've reviewed the following thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191223
I've tested 2.4.0.1 & 2.3.4.0 but can't install the driver. I have BusyBox Pro installed and running and reviewed the logs in SuperSU but i have no idea whats going on when I try the driver install.

Hm, well that's interesting... I also used Stericson's busybox (non pro) and it worked right away... (I also used "ViPER4Android_FX_v2401_A4.x-A6.x.apk")
Maybe reinstall busybox... why isn't it able to find the "toolbox" / why is it calling the path with failsafe?
I see you have some security / privacy / permission tools running... can't really vouch for a hassle free install in such an environment.
You could try to flash this zip from safestrap recovery, this worked for me on other devices and the driver is already integrated, no need for a separate install from within the app.

This has something to do with superSU Binaries updated from normal method, if you have updated super su from playstore then you have to wipe the system partition reflash the rom and latest superSU zip. Otherwise you can flash the pre-build V4a zip as suggested above.

Thanks guys.
I got the driver installed and enabled now with the flash version.
Will probably wipe and start fresh and try the apk again.

Apps not requesting SuperUser Permissions

I'm using SuperSU on the unlocked version of the M8. S-Off ARHD. I have rooted and everything, but I seem to be hacing issues with most apps not requesting SuperSU permissions. Greenify and FX File Explorer are the only 2 that have asked for them. So far, I can't run BusyBox, Auto-hide SoftKeys and the GSam root companion because none of them will request SU permissions.
I've attempted uninstalling and reinstalling through both the play store and TWRP recovery. Any other suggestions?

It's set to prompt. Still not asking for permission in apps.
Edit:
I just set it to grant, and it still won't run BusyBox or any of the other apps I mentioned. But I have SU on FX and Greenif, and can confirm both of them work. What the heck?

I'll have to try that one later. Apparently, my work internet blocks the mirror he gives on the original thread. :/
Not sure if i should start a new thread, but I am also having problems with SuperSu pro v2.14 (chainfire) Its not asking for permissions when trying to install the drivers for the viper4android app. been trying the for days. I have an htc one max (sprint) unlocked and rooted running 4.4.2, and root checked. busy box v1.22.1 installed, using twrp recovery v2.8.0.1. Other than that its all stock. SuperSu has granted permissions for other apps, but not viper4android. I have been browsing and trying many different ways to install, even found a zip file to try and flash, but the install failed. probably cause the zip file is old. I also tried to install the viper4android xhifi and it DID ask for superuser permissions. In the process of installing drivers, it asked to choose cpu. I chose CortexAx with NEON option and it failed install and told me to check root and busybox installation . Im not a master of this kind of stuff but not a newb either, and any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Update: got the super user to give permissions, but still couldn't get viper4android to install drivers...
S-off?

Rooted stock 28.0.A.8.251 ROM - looking for testers

I have successfully created a stock rooted ROM based on 28.0.A.8.251 Generic HK firmware
The ROM has the following features
Stock ROM with MyXperia app removed
Rooted with SuperSU on the /system partition
Custom kernel from latest 28.0.A.7 kernel- copyleft sources with SELinux in permissive mode and Sony RIC disabled
Deodexed and zip-aligned
Writeable external sdcard
Busybox
This ROM can be flashed using @ChrisJ951's command line TWRP.
I'm not yet ready to release it publicly but I am looking for a couple of beta testers. If you're a sophisticated user and you're willing to give it a go then send me a PM and I'll let you have a link to the download and some instructions for installation. The installation doesn't touch the userdata partition, so it's a non-wipe install, although I strongly recommend you update to the base firmware before installing the custom rom.

Yes, it's deodexed, zipaligned, SELinux in permissive mode, RIC disabled, busybox installed, write-enabled external SD card, adb insecure. I'll probably add some other things soon - Xposed is top of the list.
Does you think this can fix the over heating problem with some Z3+ devices? I hope so

Got my Z3+ last night and about to unlock the bootloader so happy to give it a test and report back. I've seen the command line twrp link but might need some additional guidance on flashing your ROM, if you wouldn't mind.

I doubt it. I've made no bug fixes. If there's a problem in the base ROM, the problem will exist in this ROM.

OK, so far, everything seems to be working fine including LTE, WiFi, Bluetooth and NFC transferring of files between devices, Location, Sync, Google Play, System RW (ES File Explorer and AdAway worked), ExternalSD RW (Titanium Backup and SMS Backup & Restore worked), Camera and all other Sony apps seem to be working fine. I haven't made any phone calls yet though. TWRP also worked great - backup, wiping and installing all worked great.
Only slight niggles I've found so far are: Google Drive keeps popping up a blank grey/white screen for a split second - when trying to sync or access Play Store - and disappears and when setting up a Google account, a message pops up saying Google Play Services has stopped - even thought it works just fine. Oh and Google Maps didn't connect the first time but forcing a continue worked. Other than those 3 items, everything else seems to be working fine. However, once all apps are updated, they all work fine.
Currently testing 4K recording and it's just gone past 11 minutes .
Xposed also working as well as Greenify Experimental Features and it seems the 20MP Superior Auto is working. Xperia Xposed didn't work - I believe this is a general incompatibility matter and not restricted to this ROM - haven't tried anything else though
Thank you very much @dl12345 for your hard work. If you need any more testing, let me know.
My first initial thoughts are perfect. I haven't had any issue whatsoever. No problem with root, works with every app. Appreciate the work.

Which version of Xposed did you use? All the ones I tried only resulted in bootloops.
I used official xposed v73 sdk21 arm64.
Little note: You have to wipe dalvik cache before or after installing Xposed to prevent bootloop.
Latest Xposed has auto-wipe feature, but to make sure...
Could I test, just unlocked my bl last night
hello all this rom have lte band 38/2600 ? Or can be added? thx
Having a e6533 Dual. 266 firmware with unlocked bootloader. Would like to downgrade and test this rooted 251 ROM. Thank you.
I used to use xposed-v74-sdk21-arm64-dl12345-UNOFFICIAL-20150929.zip as from some post. Facing random reboot from time to time.
Last week, I need to reflash, I tried official xposed-v79-sdk21-arm64.zip. It works ... and the phone stay "no reboot" for one day. Then it starts again. I wipe cache and seems back to be more stable. My own feeling is thsi v79-sdk21 has less reboot issue, but still does.

BTW, Sony has new update in Asia ...
28.0.A.8.272 Release: 1/9/2016 Still 5.0.2
I could not find anywhere to download full rom. Also not sure existing root/xposed will work or not.

Can you safely replace SuperSU with Magisk on the HTC10?

I recall that installing SuperSU on the HTC10 was originally a special case. Due to the encryption it used, originally flashing SuperSU onto the HTC10 would break the cellular radio, eventually SuperSU was updated to fix this.
I want to know if Magisk is in the same boat, or it could break your radio too like SuperSU used to, or if the way it works does not cause this issue on the HTC10.
And if so, can it be installed in place of SuperSU without having to wipe/reset your data?
I haven't used Magisk so I can't speak from experience.
However:
1) I know in the ICE Rom thread, that users have recently asked for an aroma option not to have SU installed (or PHH SU installed rather than SuperSU) so they can more easily get Magisk working.
2) Secondly, the original developer of Magisk has a HTC 10.
It's a pretty safe bet to say Magisk works if you follow the instructions...
Nearly all the instructions recommend wiping your data though, and that's not an option for me.
the Dev from Magisk has a HTC10 as main device ^^
so Magisk works flawless (except maybe sprint/verizon).
Super Su is not recommended anyway, as you can read on post Nr 2.
i've been using phh's SU for a while now and havent had a single issue.
AFAIK you dont have to wipe data but restore Stock System (Image) and kernel.
stock boot.img is important to wipe the Ramdisk.
I am already on the stock rom, all I originally did was unlock the bootloader then flash SuperSU, I never flashed a custom rom.
Works fine for me!
Works great for me on Leedroid.
1) Full unroot with SuperSU (don't restore anything)
2) Flash Magisk
3) Flash PHH root
4) Install Magisk Manager
5) Install PHH SuperUser
How is Magisk better than systemless SuperSU ?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Its not to say one is better than the either.....
To put it in VERY simple terms (There is much more to it)
Magisk is a utility for rooted related mounts and SElinux permissive status. It allows all mods to be truly systemless. It also allows rooted users to still have the ability to utilize Android Pay. You can read MUCH more at http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/mod-magisk-v1-universal-systemless-t3432382
To use Magisk effectively at this point, you need PHH SuperSU.
Magisk, systemless xposed, phh supersu are all under the same umbrella and are designed to be used together.
It works perfect for me on the HTC 10 with the multiple ROMS, including stock, that I have tested. I have used SUPERSU for as long as I remember, but in this case, the modified chainfire supersu did not work smoothly for me in the systemless magisk envionrment. Gotta give thanks to both topjohnwu, PHH and chainfire alike!
Does anyone know if you use magisk will that allow you to take ota updates from HTC or will the ota updates not work using magisk either ? Another question if anyone knows I have an Unlocked HTC 10 but may get the new Marlin due out being made by Htc so I am also wondering if magisk will work and you still get your updates from Google using magisk. I just thought maybe someone one here might know rather than try to go through tons of pages on that thread itself. I am hoping so as that would rock if you could still get your ota updates and have root too using magisk.
By the way, why did you say I might have problems if I am on Sprint?

they say it's recommended.
this is my experience ce seting up Magisk on a LG g4 (h811) running Resurrection Remix, and super su. I have an unlocked bootloader.
my main concern was maintaining viper4android (originally installed with arise (I don't remember the version))
I downloaded all the files for magisk plus the rom (resurrection remix official, just in case I needed to start clean)
I booted into twrp, made a complete backup (system would have been enough, but safety first)
I then rebooted into Android and backed up viper4android from /system/priv-app/. removed the following, super su binary, super su app, busybox/app, Viper driver then the app, and a few other root apps installed to system (I simply deleted the apk from /system/app and /system/priv-app)
now I rebooted back into Android, once booted I rebooted into recovery
and installed all Magisk requirements, and then Magisk viper4android mod.
and finally wiped cache and dalvik/art
now I shut down for about 30 minutes (phone got too hot) stupid snapdragon 808
booted back into Android, opened play and installed the Super user needed for Magisk.
now I open kernel adiutor and allow su access (need to turn off cpus 3-6)
Now I open play and install Google pay and safetynet playground.
now I open Magisk manager, and disable root.
Open play I add my cards fine.
I exit play, and open safetynet playground and check, it passes.
now I enable root again.
I install the Viper I backed up earlier as a user app, and try and use it. Nope it's trying to Install the driver. I cancel and remove it and install the official Viper.
it works fine (remember I already installed the Viper Magisk mod earlier)
Now I'm golden.
Now I never cleared my data, but I did clear dalvik/art and cache.
the only part of arise that I changed was the Viper version, I removed arise version of viper from /system/priv-app and installed the official Viper as a user app)
in all I'm just saying make a backup and try without wiping data.
I chose to wipe dalvik/art and cache because of the major change on the device.
This may or may not work for hboot lock devices. (I'm using a LG g4 (h811))
the release thread does say you need an unlocked bootloader

Magisk on Verizon Note 4

Hello everyone,
As I'm sure everyone knows, Niantic has blocked rooted phones from playing with the most current update 0.37. I'm wondering if anyone has been able to find a ROM that will work on our phones and we can install magisk to be able to play with the latest update. If not, is there any other possible solution to play with the use of magisk or without giving up root completely. I'm currently running PaulPizz and have not tried any of the possible methods I have found from fear of losing root permanently. I'm open to any suggestions or ideas.
Thank you.
Try going to the Samsung Note 4 international section.. I just flashed a Note 7 port to my wife's phone and it rocks..
Could you possibly link to which one? Is it this one? Xerrum525 N7 FullFramework PortedRom for SM-N910C / SM-N910H
Also did you use magisk with it to use pokemon go?

I'd like to know too.
What I did was install PaulPizz. Once it finished I deleted the SuperSU folder via TWRP.
It booted up fine, I still had the SU app in my drawer, I did full unroot via SU. I then flashed the uninstall for Xposed and now I can play pogo.
I Haven't been able to get Magisk to work... I get unable to detect boot image. I'm unrooted for now on PaulPizz and can play PoGo 0.37

I downloaded an older version of the app from http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/niantic-inc/pokemon-go/.
I uninstalled the new version. Reinstalled the older. Ran fine. I've heard they'll force an update sooner or later but its good for now.
I also made sure to turn off auto app updated in settings.
I did find a solution using PaulPizz and magisk. It relatively follows most other tutorials. Plus I found a way to toggle magisk with tasker, if anyone is interested. I'll post a step by step tomorrow or possibly later tonight. Sorry to make everyone wait.
So this is how I got it work with PaulPizz ROM for Verizon Note 4 retail converted to Dev edition.
I take no credit for the creation of the files required for this install, but I kind of muttled my way through this installation and got the files from different posts so credit is to go to the creators of these files, I am just redistributing. If someone feels the need to take credit for these please feel free to let me know.
Make sure to download all apks and zips before and place on sd card before hand to save time. I have also included the uninstaller for magisk version of xposed if you would like, do not use this one during the installation of magisk to remove xposed though.
Only flash xposed and install apk if you still want xposed, if not you can skip those files.
1. Do a full backup of phone using TWRP
2. Go into SuperSU settings and do full unroot
3. Reboot into recovery and mount system partion
4. Go to advanced in recovery and select File explorer
5. Navigate to system and delete .supersu file
6. Flash xposed-uninstaller-20150831-arm.zip and reboot system
7. Install pokemon go 0.37 and make sure it works at this point
8. Reboot into recovery again and flash Magisk-v6.zip, 1473968610260_phh-superuser-17-magisk.zip, and 1473980489208_xposed-v86.5-arm-alt-sdk23-topjohnwu.zip
9. Clear dalvik and cache and reboot system
10. After apps optimize install Magisk manager and Xposed Installer
11. Reboot and enjoy playing the new update. Just use Magisk Manager to turn root on/off at will before or after playing.
I'm going to create the tasker profile tomorrow and post instruction on that once completed to automatically activate Magisk when opening pokemon go.
If there are any questions, I will do my best to answer.

When are you getting that, when you flash the zip or install the apk? I'm guessing that's when you flash the included Magisk_6.zip. You are rooted using the retail to dev on an N910V model? I would maybe backup your current system and restore from before you unrooted and try again possibly.

I used the Kyubi rom and uninstalled root with supersu and installed all of the magisk stuff and it works like a charm. All of the xposed modules work good too with the system less xposed. It takes a while to boot up after flashing magisk and clearing cache but worth it. The buddy system is pretty cool lol
Anyone else only able to MAYBE play on WiFi?

So this is how I got it work with PaulPizz ROM for Verizon Note 4 retail converted to Dev edition.
I take no credit for the creation of the files required for this install, but I kind of muttled my way through this installation and got the files from different posts so credit is to go to the creators of these files, I am just redistributing. If someone feels the need to take credit for these please feel free to let me know.
Make sure to download all apks and zips before and place on sd card before hand to save time. I have also included the uninstaller for magisk version of xposed if you would like, do not use this one during the installation of magisk to remove xposed though.
Only flash xposed and install apk if you still want xposed, if not you can skip those files.
1. Do a full backup of phone using TWRP
2. Go into SuperSU settings and do full unroot
3. Reboot into recovery and mount system partion
4. Go to advanced in recovery and select File explorer
5. Navigate to system and delete .supersu file
6. Flash xposed-uninstaller-20150831-arm.zip and reboot system
7. Install pokemon go 0.37 and make sure it works at this point
8. Reboot into recovery again and flash Magisk-v6.zip, 1473968610260_phh-superuser-17-magisk.zip, and 1473980489208_xposed-v86.5-arm-alt-sdk23-topjohnwu.zip
9. Clear dalvik and cache and reboot system
10. After apps optimize install Magisk manager and Xposed Installer
11. Reboot and enjoy playing the new update. Just use Magisk Manager to turn root on/off at will before or after playing.
I'm going to create the tasker profile tomorrow and post instruction on that once completed to automatically activate Magisk when opening pokemon go.
If there are any questions, I will do my best to answer.

Well I have magisk installed but I dont know if the xposed went through entirely it says it flashed ok but according to the installer I don't have xposed installed? What's going on did I do something wrong
Did you remove the old xposed app after the flag and install the new xposed apk also? I think mine did the same, because I forgot to also install the xposed app after flashing the systemless xposed framework.
I was able to full unroot, delete the super su file in twrp. when I flash the Xposed uninstaller it removes the framework but leaves the APk in a form that I can't delete.
If I flash magisk and all the other stuff it goes through fine, but when I try to toggle root off in magisk it turns itself back on within a few seconds. I'm assuming this is because i didn't get Xposed all the way off?
Any ideas? Thanks in advance for the help.
Magisk will refuse to unroot while xposed is still there in the system form. Even a piece of it.
Well now I got Xposed off using tibu before I unroot. Everything installed, systemless Xposed registered as being active, but when I try to toggle root in magisk I get the same thing with it turning itself back on. If I try to request root privileges from an app I am told i have no root.
Ideas?

Uninstall Root on Cm13?

I want to use the system less root so I can play Pokémon Go. Is there a way to remove root or do I have to be running a stock rom? I'm using the latest nightly of the regular Cyanogen Cm13.
Thanks
Isn't root enabled via settings? Maybe turn it off in the settings or reflash and don't enable root?
I tried that but the system is still seen as rooted

I can't get the supersu app to work. It wants to update and fails update. Updating through twrp creates a boot loop. Good idea though, thanks.

CM13 has it's own baked-in implementation of ClockWorkMod's SuperUser, not SuperSU. You can install SuperSU, but it will conflict. You'll first need to delete /system/bin/su and /system/xbin/su, then you can "try" installing SuperSU, SUHide, etc..
1. install the latest version of TWRP for your device
2. boot into recovery and install SuperSU v2.78 SR1
-reboot system. open SuperSU and setup as normal
3. boot into recovery and install SUHide v0.54
-reboot system. open an app that require root to make sure your root is functioning
-try Pokemon Go. It should work fine
Do you need some sort of GPS spoof? You'll need Systemless XPosed and a good module
4. boot into recovery and install Xposed v86.2 - Universal Systemless (make sure you select 86.2 - you DO NOT need Magisk)
reboot system.
5. install Material Design Xposed Installer APK
-run XPosed Installer. it should show you are using 86.2 systemless
-click top left button and select download. search for a module called "Snorlax" and install the most recent version.
-this will hide your mock locations setting as well as show IV's, movesets, etc. of any Pokemon you encounter. it's all client side so no worries about bans!
-reboot system
-Test Pokemon Go. You should have no problems!
6. Need a GPS spoofing app? I use Fake GPS (well worth the $2.99). It allows you to pin favorite locations (I bounce quickly between spots where I can hit multiple lured PokeStops at once), and has settings to randomly move within a radius at whatever intervals and speed. They also have a GPS Joystick and Routes app that I have not yet tested since they don't offer a trial or free version. I'll update on that if they do offer a trial.
I have fresh installed CM13 on a Nexus 5, following the instructions above for systemless root + xposed. Pokemon Go v39.1 works without issue while spoofing GPS.
**UPDATE 10/7/2016 ** - edited to use updated suhide v0.54

I deleted all the support files but Pokémon ends telling it's unable to log me in. Many users are reporting this error. It might just be my phone, the s3 is kinda old.

Sorry took so long. This phone is slow as ballz! Everything appears to be working correctly though. I have Pokemon Go 39.1 installed (had to use apkmirror to install since it wouldn't let me from the Play Store on the S3), and am using Snorlax module to hide mock locations. I'm also using Fake Gps to spoof location.
I'd say it should work for you as well. What modules are you using? If you don't care about anything on your phone, wipe everything from recovery. Then under advanced, adb sideload CM13 and GApps Nano from opengapps.org (ARM/6.0/nano). Restart system and follow all the steps from there after you have the initial phone setup done.

Thanks for your help. I updated yo the newest nightly build, did a full factory reset and deleted the 2 su files. After rebooting i re-downloaded the newest version of Pokémon and installed it. Game is working fine.
I don't use root much so I'll see how it goes without root and if I need root i can put the su files back(I made copies and put them in Dropbox) or try superSU/hideSU.
I know the s3 is slow but I'm putting off an upgrade until i have to upgrade. Until i upgrade I won't really realize how slow my phone is

Going forward, I don't think the CM baked-in SuperUser is going to cut it. At least not the version in CM13. The specific versions of SuperSU + suhide I linked seem to pass all current checks though. So if you want root, go ahead and use them.

just wanted to chime in and say my own SGH-T999 is now running PG again, thanks to you FuNKSioN - so, thank you sir!!! wasted a LOT of time trying other solutions (mainly Magisk) with no luck, so i was pretty damned happy when your steps worked. first time i forgot to rename/delete the two su files, second time i did it immediately after flashing CM13 & GApps using ADB and then everything was fine. you rock!!! :victory:
and also, yeah - until Shack70 and i get a new phone, we have no idea what "slow as ballz" is! i will say, the S3 may be relatively slow but i have two backup batteries that take up very little space and are very easy to swap in and out.

Glad to help. I was in the same boat: so much info in all directions and none of it seemed to work. I keep up with ChainFire's G+ account. He had a few posts linked directly back to XDA. Those few posts had everything needed. I just put it in simple steps. All thanks to him really
Sigh
And now SafetyNet is failing and PoGo won't log me in. Is this really worth it?

reflashed CM13 + GApps, used ADB to rename system/xbin/su & system/bin/su to /su-off, and SafetyNet is happy (and thus, so is PoGo). but now, of course, phone isn't rooted.
---------- Post added at 05:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:05 AM ----------
on the plus side, CM13 comes with File Manager which allowed me, without root, to install the v39.1 PoGo apk that I downloaded last week.
Sit back and wait for an SU update... It's only been a hot minute.
