I am trying to root my phone via Kingroot, then I received this message:



Is it OK for me to tap the button below to continue the rooting process? I'm kinda having second thoughts about this, and I want your professional advice about this... Thanks in advance!

I'm planning to install V4A, that's why I want to root my phone.

BTW, when I tried to tap that blue button, it says that rooting was successful, but when I restarted my phone, it went to a bootloop. Upon googling, I found another method to root 5.1.1, which is to downgrade to a lower firmware, then root, install recovery, then flash a pre-rooted 5.1.1 ROM. Now I'm rooted ?

Now you need to change kinguser to supersu as kinguser doesn't give the same root access permissions as supersu does. Also to make viperaudio work on 5.1 you must
1. select awesome player in developer options.
2. Disable music fx apk in settings/apps.
3. Install selinuxmode changer and set to permissive.
Viperaudio should now work flawlessly

I'm not sure if you were successful with the installation but I got an alternative method for SElinux change.
Install V4A with drivers then go to your recovery and flash this zip. Most devs do not recommend changing SElinux to Permissive for security reasons, this zip will whitelist V4A in SElinux Enforcing.

If you're new to V4A, go to these settings, sounds better than my walkman.
