Using Link2SD on the R1HD? - BLU R1 HD Questions & Answers

Has anyone got Link2SD to work on the R1 HD? It always seems to give the error: mount script cannot be created "mount:No such file or directory" when trying to create mount script. Any ideas what going on.?

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.

Where should BusyBox be installed? ( mines currently in /system/xbin ) which BusyBox is best for this solution? ( mines v1.27.1.YDS )

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.

Adaway problems on Nexus 6 marshmallow

I've researched and tried every method to get AdAway to work. I uninstalled some system apps which allowed me to install it but I cannot get past that because of the S-off warning screen.
I am rooted and bootloader is unlocked. Ive attatched a screenshot of my kernel etc
Do you have a folder called init.d in system/etc?
I have installed Adaway on at least 6 different Marshmellow ROM's with no issue.
Switch ROM and Kernels and see what happens.
Just FYI, this is a development area. You will have more luck posting in the Q&A section.
You seem to be using system less root, that's probably the issue. In the adaway thread there is a zip that must be flashed if you're using system less root.
Also questions belong in the Q&A section not dev section. I've reported the thread, a mod should move it but just letting you know for next time.

I don't have an init.d folder as I run the stock kernel. There must be another problem.
I was facing the same problem, for every one trying to get adaway to work on android 6.0.1, follow these steps
Boot to TWRP recovery -> Mount system
adb shell
cd system
cd etc
rm hosts

Look in the stickies thread in general for how to root.
Usually what i do is:
Flash or boot into TWRP
Flash superuserSU
Install BusyBox
That's it as i use the stock rom, kernel and recovery. I just need root.

[Magisk][Module] su xbin_bind v1.2-20170417

Intro
Expose your su to standard location /system/xbin/su systemless-ly.
Though it helps grant root permission to some apps, this trick breaks safetynet.
Just made a simple module try to solve the /sbin/su not detectable problem. This module will look for existing su binary, and create a link as /magisk/su_xbin_bind/system/xbin/su pointing to the real su. The link will also be mounted as /system/xbin/su systemless-ly later.
Installation
Flash it in Magisk manager or through recovery, then reboot. You will find a link /system/xbin/su. All the work is done systemless-ly.
Uninstallation
Open Magisk Manager, go to Modules, disable or uninstall the module called "Su xbin_bind". Then it will disappear after reboot.
su-xbin-bind on github
Changelog
v1.2 20170417
Add Magisk v12 support.
v1.1 20170323
- make it compatible with Magisk v11.5/11.6
Update 20170228
- Since a little syntax error in the mounting script from Magisk v11.0-v11.5, mounting links systemless-ly won't success. Hence we choose to copy but not to link the su binary for v11.0-v11.5. Don't worry, both methods are systemless.
Reserved.
Hi, will this not make safetynet fail?

It will obviously. Because su is exposed to /system/xbin/su and will be detected.

Wouldn't magiskhide unmount that and therefore pass safetynet?
I used your module to fix TiBackup freeze when restorins apps.
TiBackup troubleshooting (http://www.titaniumtrack.com/kb/tit...l#tb-hangs-while-freezing-apps-restoring-apps) reports that this issue is connected with wrong su permissions in /system/bin and /system/xbin. Since these are not available due to systemless root, I though that your module would represent an elegant fix... and it did!
Thanks!

Unfortunately, doesn't fix the Titanium Backup issue (freezing or restoring app) for me on Galaxy S6 Android 6.0. This also broke SafetyNet for me, even after uninstalling the module from Xposed and rebooted.

If you mean you are using xposed, obviously safetynet will be broken. MagiskHide couldn't hide xposed.
This module tries to fix the su detectable problem. If your titanium backup could get root permission after installing the module, it means the module worked.
My TB is working fine, but I have another app that can't detect it, will give it a test run, thanks for your work!
HI! Just a quick feedback: this module works with Helium Backup that now correctly asks for root permission! :good:
Thank you!
Thanks for the module!! It was the key for me getting Termux su working ?
Hello, I flashed this without error and titanium backup as well as ES file explorer both report I do not have root. Magisk v12 states i do have root.
nevermind...i realized Magisk SU isn't installed as it didn't auto install. I had installed phh's superuser r266-2.
proceeded to rewipe and reflash everything.

Hi,
Work with Magisk Version 13.3 ???

make system dir writeable

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

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.

If you want to use it as a Magisk module, maybe you should install it from the Magisk Manager instead of flashing from TWRP.
Besides, I didn't catch your meaning. You mean the busybox app notice? Now that busybox is installed, you don't have to mind that notice.
Why are you guys trying to install to /su? Unless you're still on Magisk v12, you shouldn't be using SuperSU...

What method would that be? No, I'm not gonna go hunting for some random Youtuber...
If the aim is to get a functioning busybox up and running, the easiest way is to just install @osm0sis busybox module from the downloads section in the Manager. No other apps needed...
He installed busybox in system/xbin
He made a folder called "Viper4Android" in the "system/priv-app" folder and copied a Viper4Android APK in there
He set the permissions of said APK to -rw-r--r-- (I set to -rwxrwxrwx for good measure)
He went to "system/vendor/etc" ("system/etc" if it's not there) folder, made a copy of the "audio_effects.conf" file
He renamed the "audio_effects.conf" file in the etc folder to "audio_effects.conf.bak"
He pasted the original "audio_effects.conf" file back in the "etc" folder, so now he has a "audio_effects.conf" and a "audio_effects.conf.bak" file in the "etc" folder
He changed the permissions of the "audio_effects.conf" file to "-rw-r--r--"
He rebooted, opened V4A, installed drivers, then rebooted
Hope this helped.

That busybox module works perfectly for me.
And I'm using Magisk partly because it makes system modifications like V4A systemless. Therefore I would not follow those instructions...
I do have V4A working though, with this Magisk module and by utilising this workaround until the module has been updated. Nice and systemless...
The above mentioned workaround hasn't worked for everyone, but several other ways of getting it to work have been discussed in that thread.

You'll need to provide some details for that... After flashing the module in TWRP, can you save the recovery log (Advanced - Copy log) and attach it to a post here.
And I forgot to say, but for the V4A module I linked, I don't even need busybox installed. YMMV...

Funny. It seemed to work this time. The last time I tried it literally said it failed.

Doesn't look like it succeeded when looking at the log...
What's the error message when you install through the Manager?

Viper4Android for Mate 10 Pro

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.
