Any idea if this can also be used on nougat roms? Or perhaps the same modification used to boot those with Magisk?

I can do it again for nougat but I recommend you to use oreo b20. It's better than all others about sound quality, camera and more stuff.

It is possible doing this for the A2017V3.0.0B17 ?

for all axon 7 phones running oreo b20 stock?

Thanks for your job, I've seen your source under github, can you confirm that to avoid bootloops on Magkisk > 17 is enough to set to "n" the SeLinux policy?



Teşekkürler.

Yes, if you want use a custom init binary you need to disable zte's policyproc.

If you send me pm that includes the stock boot.img and /system/lib/modules /system/vendor/lib modules folders it's possible.

Absolutely.

Don't forget to install Magisk module that I gave.

Ok, solved using directly Magisk to flash custom module. Thanks.

 

[Dodgexander]

Thanks for this @asderdd works well. Do you know if it will still work with v17.2 or v17.3? I tried but it doesn't seem too although I know they are beta and dev versions.

This is probably because you didn't boot first. I had this too. Make sure you install stock rom first, install recovery and then after the first boot make sure to restart, go to recovery and then flash it according to the steps.

Sure, it works with all sub versions of magisk 17. I'm using magisk 17.4 canary build at this moment.

Yes i know i should have followed exactly the instruction but i flashed recovery and modem with miflash all at once then twrp and encryption is not the best...anyway problem solved. Even if custom module in twrp give me error and i don t know why, maybe encryption.

I have tried Oreo yet, but I'm very eager to do so. I've seen some comments that system is now only ro, does this fix this? And can i assume safetynet passes on this? Thank you!

@asderdd On stock latest nougat A2017U Magisk 17.x also bootloops to recovery, is this a separate problem? I'm interested in reporting whatever you had to do to topjohnwu so he can make a fix in Magisk if possible. Or better yet if you're not to busy maybe you can advise him?

thanks

Nope it doesn't effect mount status of system. I recommend you to make a magisk module that can adds, modifies or removes files systemlessly. Unfortunately b20 rom can't pass safetynet.

The solution is disabling zte's selinux policyproc feature. Lookup the commits at github for details. I don't know what had changed on magisk v17 to cause conflict with our policyproc.

I am pretty sure I had safetynet passing fine with your solution before + MagiskHide props config module but I kept losing it after some time. I thought it was something I did wrong but today after a fresh reinstall I still can't pass safetynet with the MagiskHide props config module spoofing the Nougat ZTE Axon fingerprint.

Have google done something which means we can't pass safetynet on b20?
