Why yes. If you use apps that needs SafetyNet to pass. If not you can stay on SuperSU

It does not work. I've tryed every version from 13 to 13.3 half way thru the flash it just jumps out of recovery and boots by its self. It doesn't bootloop or hurt anything I can tell but it just doesn't install. Ever heard of that?

3.1.0-1 actually. And if Phh/supersu is flashed you need to flash stock boot image, else it will complain about boot image.

Well I decided to flash the Shield Rom and it's actually running like a dream so before I go back and start over. Is there any way I can make Magisk work on this Rom. I'm haveing the same issue. I'm going to change my TWRP now. Thanks for the help.

You need to be on firmware B182+ (which you are)
You need to have twrp 3.1.0+
You need to flash stock boot image before Magisk.
You can get stock boot either from rom zip (boot.img) or stock firmware (update.app) and extract boot using Huawei Update extractor. Then flash boot image manually.

Flashed Supersu but still not rooted. On 8.0

I have a Google edition pixel and have been trying to root it. I have unlocked the bootloader, installed twrp, flash supersu, then flash verifiedboot. Once the phone boots up i check to see if it has root access with root check app, and it still does not. I follwed these instructions https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel/how-to/guide-root-android-o-dev-preview-1-pixel-t3591548
Used Supersu sr3

Hi,
You have to look here for 8.0 : https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel/how-to/guide-root-android-o-dev-preview-1-pixel-t3591548
Read the OP again, it should say boot Twrp and not flash, because there is no flashable Twrp for O yet.

Tried this with the latest Supersu SR4 and still not working. I'm on Android 8.0 August 5,2017 security patch.
Maybe they fixed the exploit? I'm not sure why I can't get it rooted.

What messages does it say in twrp, as you flash SuperSU? ... if you've already flashed SuperSU, the script could be restoring the backup boot.IMG, which could be your problem...
When I bump into that, personally; I just download the factory image, then edit the flash-all.sh script and remove the -w flag (which tells the script to not wipe the device), I save the script then execute it...
It flashes the image and I end up with an unaltered boot.IMG and system, then I flash SuperSU after....
I'm on the Sept 5 image using SuperSU sr3 ... SuperSU works like a charm.

After plenty of tiral and error I have finally rooted the phone.
For some reason this tutorial was the only one to work for me.

Magisk Root without TWRP for OnePlus 6 Oxygen OS Android 10 Open Beta 5 | OOS 10.3.1

Latest TWRP doesn't support Android Pie 9.0 for OnePlus 6, or at least for me it didn't.
So, I've made a Magisk patched boot image for Android P that we can flash it in fastboot bootloader.
Note: This is not Oxygen OS ROM, this is just a patched boot img for Oxygen OS to make root work. You need to unlock the bootloader before proceeding with anything.
Note 2: Please disable Magisk modules in the Magisk Manager before flashing the patched boot, because some modules might not support the latest OOS and your device will bootloop. If the modules has been updated by the devs to support the latest OOS you can install the modules after that.
Note 3: Sorry guys, I haven't tested the Android Q Developer Previews. Even though Magisk is supported on Q, please flash it at your own risk.
For older versions download from here: Google Drive
Folder updated with Stock boot images as well.
OOS 10 Open Beta 5 Patched Boot
OOS 10 Open Beta 5 Stock Boot
OOS 10.3.1 Patched Boot
OOS 10.3.1 Stock Boot
Flashing instructions:
Code:
fastboot boot (patched_boot_filename_here).img
or
fastboot flash boot (patched_boot_filename_here).img
Thanks @vlaf
reboot to system (if you make another reboot the root won't stick, so continue with the following steps)
Open Magisk (in settings select beta channel) and click install and install Magisk again with Direct Install (recommended)
reboot again and the root will stick even after the reboot.
The thread I followed for the instructions is here. Thanks for @b1czu
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/oneplus-6-magisk-root-oos-5-1-5-t3794440
Even easier way to root without TWRP:
1. Install OTA update (Don't reboot).
2. Open Magisk Manager, install Magisk and choose "Install to Inactive Slot (After OTA)" (Now reboot).
3. Now you are rooted without TWRP and without any boot img hassles as well.

wow dude that's useful. I don't need TWRP that bad but I need root to use Titanium backups.
Thanks man！

Not work here. Bootloop, only see Bootanimation not more.

Easy way to install twrp is to fastboot boot twrp. From there, you must turn on adb sideload and push twrp to phone because it will not decrypt storage. After install, reboot to recover and it will ask for password to decrypt. Then just flash magisk to have root with working twrp. Also, you have to use twrp 3.2.2 or it will crash.

【HELP!】Installed a module in Magisk Download manager and now i'm f*****

Sup guys, i had this problem with the SafetyNet Check that always kept failing, done some tutorials here at the forum but none of them worked, so i gave up... yesterday i was searching for some modules at the download page in the Magisk Manager app and found a module that was supposed to correct SafatyNet problema, after that installation my Magisk don't want to open anymore, all my modules still installed but i can't open the app anymore, i rooted my cellphone without TWRP so i can't use it to manage the dependencies of the app... any suggestion?
obs.: I'm not using TWRP cuz i just keep having a problem at the installation, i'm runnig the last version of the Android Pie OS (Beta 3)

You could temporarily boot into TWRP via ADB and a PC and flash the uninstaller.

He can boot it through fastboot, adb push the uninstaller and flash it.*
But isn't the safetynet fix just a build.prop tweak?
He can technically adb pull the build.prop, fix it and put it back in. Or just take a working build.prop from a fellow OB3 user ( me included ) and push it into the system through adb.

I think the OP mentioned the problem they are having is from a Magisk module that is incompatible with the OP6. My recommendation, without TWRP on the phone, might be a Fastboot Rom to get your phone functional again.

restore stock boot.img. no root, no mods to load. fix it then reroot.

You don't need to restore. Follow this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-core-mode-bootloop-solver-modules-t3817366
It's called CoreOnlyMode4Magisk and it's flashed through TWRP. Magisk modules are systemless and this module will fix your problem.

You can use the modified boot.img with TWRP preinstalled from the OB3 thread:

Just reflash OB3 from system updater and that will get rid of root and also keep your data. Then start over.

Android 10 - Root

Hey guys!
I have a rooted pixel 3. I want to upgrade to Android 10 if they release in the next day or so as reported. I've read they made some progress with magisk...
What is my best bet here?
I would love to keep root, but most importantly I want to keep my data and upgrade to Android 10.
I do really want to keep root too.
Is there a guide?
Thanks!

I had Q beta 6 working with current process. Canary channel still only works by patching your boot.IMG. So with twrp still not working on beta 6. All instructions say image flash not possible upgrade path. So until 10 is stable + twrp stable I don't know either. I will just flash 10 and see also. But I really don't expect data to retain, will try though.

This is a build of blueline TWRP-3.3.1 from the crosshatch tree that is supposedly working from a follow-up post.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pi...pixel-3-xl-t3861623/post79995400#post79995400

So is there no way to root just now?
I upgraded from a rooted Android 9 by downloading the factory image for 10 and removing -w from the bat file. All okay, data retained.
But there is no TWRP that works and I tried to fastboot boot a magisk patched boot image from the factory image zip file and it didn't work.

It did not work on Android Q Beta 6... just bootlooped. So I am assuming it still does not work for 10.

It does not work for me, guess I should have removed my magisk modules before updating :crying:
TWRP also seems not to work so I see no way to remove these modules now...
Does anyone have a suggestion besides wiping the device?

Did you try the twrp version in post #3?

Just got a notification for upgrading to android 10 , date Tuesday 10.19 pm.
Since there is no xposed available for Android 10, i' ll stick to android 9

Looks like TWRP won't decrypt. Has anyone ADB sideloaded the Canary version of Magisk through TWRP? That was the old workaround when decryption didn't work.

I was under the impression that fastboot of twrp-3.3.1-0-blueline could be used for certain things in 10 (possibly flashing Magisk uninstaller). Also, be sure you have the canary uninstaller.

I assumed it was for 3XL only, glad you pointed that out! It does boot, however TWRP is not able to mount anything (system, data etc.), so I guess this is a dead end.

No, you have to use a Magisk patched boot with canary magisk. Not even close to the old way. No TWRP. Lot of info on here. You might want to start reading before jumping in.

Manually patching the boot image with the canary build "works" - as in - it shows Magisk installed in Magisk Manager and can grant Superuser to apps --- BUT, you can't write to system, so things like Adaway don't work, also Google Pay doesn't work. I'm not sure what you use root for, but this makes it fairly useless to me for now.
