Root?

I installed TWRP 3.2.3 to the FOTA partition, then installed the XenonHD ROM (version 180914-Official), opengapps 8.1, the Lineage addonsu-15.1 zip, and the android_lowram_enabler zip. I had to boot up about six times before the setup wizard and other apps got tired of repeatedly stopping, but eventually it booted up successfully. So far I am very pleased with XenonHD – it is fast, responsive and stable. Thanks again.

Just one problem, though – root is not working! I have set the 'apps and ADB' setting under Developer options, but Root Checker Pro complains that there is no Superuser app installed (although it does find the binary files). Kernel Adiutor also checks for root but doesn't find it. I thought a Superuser app was no longer required in Lineage if the su addon is installed? Please advise me what to do.

seems that you have to install some app that will manage the root access for apps. I don't know how it is handled with addonsu to be honest as I use magisk

btw: first public XenonHD 9.0 build has been already uploaded to our server ;)

Thank you, that gives me a couple of things to try. I had assumed that as Xenon is based on Lineage it would use the same method for getting root, i.e. the Lineage addonsu.
