V1.1 in the op

Masterchief87 · Apr 10, 2016

Hey everybody I made an instructional video showing how to properly use the new broken switcher app and it also shows how to switch and restore in twrp without using switcher and restore zips.

I'm on CM13 and the app doesn't seem to make a BrokenSwitcher folder with the .img files. SuperSU shows Broken Switcher on the apps list. The storage permission is enabled. Everything is granted but the process after clicking "pull images" and "system write" is much quicker than what was shown on video. Anything I'm doing wrong, guys?

Did you watch the video above your post. Clean app data if it doesn't work.

Yes, I did watch the video. Everything he did isn't working for me. No folder is being created and no images are being pulled.

I get no such luck. :-(
This is after clicking "pull images". The toast animation for SuperSU doing it's part comes up, but nothing was created out of it.

When was the last time you updated the super user binary

Get me an adb log and I can tell what is wrong

GoonDoc · Apr 10, 2016

This is how I did it...
After trying to get this working without any luck, I took some time to think a bit and found out what was preventing it from working...
I had updated the SuperSU app but the binary update wasn't sticking so I kind of had lost part of the root access, so it was as simple as downgrading to the same version as the binary files and voila. Switcher working boom.I used root checker to check which versions I had.

Thanks once again @dfuse06 @hroark13 @Masterchief87
