I told before i tested this on g5 TR version but it was very very laggy. Very slow that was not even suitable for daily use. Also Dm verity did not work. So first of all we need solutions for these 2 problems.

1- Why very laggy? Why cant see sdcard? Why too many permission errors?
2- Why dm verity did not work?

But i saw a message saying adb is running as root.

I want to test something tomorrow. I will try to delete lets say youtube.apk from system. Can you tell me the adb command how to do this?

adb delete system\...\youtube.apk..

I cant use the phone because it becomes very very laggy but i wanna see if adb root can really delete these system files.

Maybe someone finds a solutions for the slowness, permissions problems.
dm-verity absolutely works, you are doing something wrong.

Then you're doing something wrong. It works perfectly fine on everyone else's device, what does the command prompt return with when you run "adb disable-verity"?
I will test your method again in a few minutes, i installed 1.4.3 adb. now
Meantime can you tell me a correct command to delete a system file, lets say youtube.apk

2 things, usb debug should be on beginning too.
Phone will be on charge mode, not file mode.
Im on factory reset data section, its reeboting now. Lets see if this time verity works, and if its still lagggy, slow. exchange stopped error comes in setup modeb
Mr Honestly is there anyway doing rollback without flashing whole Rom?

I already tried, won't work, I softbricked for a little. And as far as I've tested we can't rollback. Just wait for a new method, there should be one for nougat since this was based on the v20 one and v20 is nougat.
This was not based on the Nougat. The ONLY THING (but most important thing) from the V20 is the dirtysanta, which I modified.

If we can get a userdebug kernel boot.img then you could, but it seems that any new OS is not using the same boot.img as the older version. I tried it on the the version above the non-anti-rollback version, I was on 10a and I went to 12a and anit-rollback went to 1 and wouldn't boot. 11a is supposed to work but I didn't have the KDZ for my phone with 11a and its my daily driver so had to go to 12a.

But there is a problem, we cant install, we cant write files to phone. So not usefull.

Yes you can install and yes you can write files. You have to mount system or other partitions as r/w.
