FAQ​A: Player becomes laggy!
B: I cannot fix bad processor of FiiO M7. Lags because you start use player another way. You update FiiO Music, install Playstore. Apps require more performance hardware. Try reinstall with old FiiO Music and without Gapps
A: How to go back to original firmware
B: You can easily go back flashing stock rom for FiiO M7 from here - M7 Firmware or for fiio M6 from here - M6 Firmware. Just flash it from recovery like my firmware
A: Why, when entering Magisk, there is a notification about an additional installation?
B: Since the magisk was installed "by hand", he did not unpack the files he needed to the Data section. To fix the problem without the module and install this module
A: Why is there only only my language in the keyboard?
B: Settings - Language & input - Virtual keyboard - Simple keyboard - Language
Uncheck the system languages and put them in the languages you need
A: Stuck on logo/bootloop!
B: Hold the power and pause button, after the screen turns off, press the button down, in recovery, select Wipe data.

Thanks for this, though I've been meaning around with it, magisk doesn't provide proper root, no root apps request and get granted root ever. Am I missing something?

Did you select magisk app in installer? You have M6 or M7?

tried this on a m9 and no luck im afraid, just stuck at the fiio logo on bootup, left for 30 mins, rebooted to recovery and wiped data again, left for an hour and no difference.

M6, it seems userdata doesn't mount so the magisk data files don't install. You have the correct platform etc for mounting, but I'm not sure why it fails. Otherwise it all works great.

m9 업데이트 해주세요 ... 제발 ..

Just tried today's version but it dows not install.
after installing statrs after 2 or 3 seconds it reboots

I seem to have the same issue as Mentalmuso and Paris333; Magisk isn't giving out root permissions on the M6. When I try to flash module.zip via the modules tab in the magisk manager app I get:
Code:
! Unsupported/Unknown image format
! Installation failed
The magisk debug log is only full of:
Code:
su: request from pid={XXXXX}
su: request from uid={XXXXX}
su: request rejected (XXXXX)
for all of the root applications I tried to test it with
but when I go to the "superuser" tab it aggravatingly says "No app has asked for superuser permission yet."
My magisk app is the default non-updated version installed via the proshi_m6_en aroma installer. I did do full factory reset via the debug menu and followed all instructions, so the installation is very clean. Everything that doesn't need root works perfectly fine, xposed even shows up as active. I've tried a few things, like updating to the new v22 magisk app via the v22 magisk manager, but I always just run into the same boot.img unsupported error as above. Maybe I've missed something, let me know if you need anything tested, as I do have a few M6 to play around with that I don't mind bricking.
On an unrelated note: your paypal says you are not accepting payments.

try installing magisk manager v7.5.1 , im using that one with success. Getting root access now. I think half of it is actually the super lag we are getting with having play store, i have put together a very stripped down version of the stock firmware, removed a load of useless apps that all take up precious ram. I am simply downloading my preferred streaming app (deezer) and a couple of other useful apps (terminal, root explorer, magisk manager) and storing them all on my ext sdcard to install after clean install. I seem to be having a pretty fluid experience now.

anyone can fix da M9 file? it does not install any file to the device...

[MOD] MultiROM v33x [20/05/2016]

MultiROM is a one-of-a-kind multi-boot mod. It can boot any Android ROM as well as other systems like Ubuntu Touch, once they are ported to that device. Besides booting from device's internal memory, MultiROM can boot from USB drive connected to the device via OTG cable. The main part of MultiROM is a boot manager, which appears every time your device starts and lets you choose ROM to boot. You can see how it looks on the left image below and in gallery. ROMs are installed and managed via modified TWRP recovery. You can use standard ZIP files to install secondary Android ROMs and MultiROM even has its own installer system, which can be used to ship other Linux-based systems.
Features:
* Multiboot any number of Android ROMs
* Restore nandroid backup as secondary ROM
* Boot from USB drive attached via OTG cable
You can also watch a video which shows it in action.​
WARNING
It is dangerous. This whole thing is basically one giant hack - none of these systems are made with multibooting in mind. It is no longer messing with data partition or boot sector, but it is possible that something goes wrong and you will have to flash factory images again. Make backups. Always.​
IMPORTANT
I'm not responsible for anything, you do all this on your own risk.
Once you have flashed and set up MultiROM, don't flash another boot.img using fastboot or normally. Always go to TheMultiROM Menu (3 bars in the top right corner) to flash ROMs/kernels or other mods.
If you want to uninstall MultiROM, just flash the MultiROM uninstaller.
I am not certainly sure about the compatibility with stock Roms, I still need to test this yet.
Your device must not be encrypted.
When booting another ROM, you'll notice that in some cases, you can enter the recovery of the boot.img of the ROM. Please don't use it, flash everything using MultiROM TWRP.
INSTALLATION
Make sure you are on a Rom compatible with one of these kernels and flash it or use the non-kexec workaround. (See important Notices)
Reboot into MultiROM TWRP and flash the MultiROM installer
That's it. You can now go to TheMultiROM Menu (3 bars in the top right corner) to start flashing other ROMs.
Adding ROMs
Go to recovery, select TheMultiROM Menu (3 bars in the top right corner) -> Add ROM. Select the ROM's zip file and confirm.​
Using USB drive
During installation, recovery lets you select install location. Plug in the USB drive, wait a while and press "refresh" so that it shows partitions on the USB drive. You just select the location (extX, NTFS and FAT32 partitions are supported) and proceed with the installation.
If you wanna use other than default FAT32 partition, just format it in PC. If you don't know how/don't know where to find out how, you probably should not try installing MultiROM.
If you are installing to NTFS or FAT32 partition, recovery asks you to set image size for all the partitions - this cannot be easilly changed afterward, so choose carefully. FAT32 is limited to maximum of 4095MB per image - it is limitation of the filesystem, I can do nothing about that.
Installation to USB drives takes a bit longer, because the flash drive is (usually) slower and it needs to create the images, so installation of Ubuntu to 4Gb image on my pretty fast USB drive takes about 20 minutes.
Enumerating USB drive can take a while in MultiROM menu, so when you press the "USB" button in MultiROM, wait a while (max. 30-45s) until it searches the USB drive. It does it by itself, no need to press something, just wait.​
Updating/changing ROMs
1. Primary ROM (Internal)
Flash ROM's ZIP file as usual, do factory reset if needed (it won't erase secondary ROMs)
Go to TheMultiROM Menu (3 bars in the top right corner) in recovery and do Inject curr. boot sector.
2. Secondary Android ROMs
If you want to change the ROM, delete it and add new one. To update ROM, follow these steps:
Go to TheMultiROM Menu (3 bars in the top right corner) -> List ROMs and select the ROM you want to update.
Select "Flash ZIP" and flash ROM's ZIP file.

Gonna test it today and will provide a feedback. Thx for work ?
Ok, so can't root it - Systemless method with patching doesn't work anymore. Also can't flash any zip to main ROM - neither by main menu (flashing, but where - no idea), nor by ROM list (main ROM is hidden and cannot make it visible via settings, resets every time to hidden status).

You need to use my kernel; it can be found in the second post.
EDIT: I can reproduce your problem and will check it once I get home (~ 1-2 days).

Actually I'm using your kernel. Systemless Root in recovery says like it's already patched and terminal returns "abort operation". Looks like you already patched it by Systemless SU, so I can't repatch it again. If you did so, revert this change. By other side, MultiROM along with TWRP works good, except zip flashing from main TWRP menu - it flashes, everything seems to be good, but actually changes did not appear to be applied on main ROM, even when I inject everything, like described in guide (tried both Systemless SU and DRM fix - neither works :/). Also there is bug with main ROM - can't uncheck "Hide internal ROM", so main ROM couldn't be shown in ROM list. If any ideas - I'm up for testing.

Alright - systemless root doesn't work because my kernel uses a combined ramdisk, meaning the actual ramdisk of the ROM is in /sbin/ramdisk.cpio. SuperSU doesn't know that, tries to treat the main ramdisk as a normal one and fails (hence the abort). I'll try to find a solution...
I remember using this on the original XZ! So great it's being worked on. Will do some testing tomorrow. Thanks a ton, dev.

We need either edit Systemless SU zip to patch proper boot image or make regular SU zip working (aka system mode) - for now, with .185 kernel it gives bootloops due to SELinux changes
but the z3+/z4 dont have any rom and dont have any romer ╮(︶︿︶)╭

Fixed, please re-downloaded the boot image (from the same link), I have updated it. You can now also use the MultiROM Manager to install MultiROM. It can download TWRP, MultiROM and my kernel.
Useless till we dont have at least 2 roms... BUT HEY Thx for making it for the future maybe?

We have some unstable CM builds for now.
So, tested it for a while. Bugs: second ROM doesn't booting properly - just rebooting to black screen, then red LED blinks 3 times and reboots to that state again and then just after second reboot boots to multirom ROM menu.
@MotexT, yes, for me same behavior. Even stock kernel sometimes reboot device on bootanimation.

Try now; use the MultiROM Manager to upgrade.
ia this compatible with .253 stock and CM build by Quarx?
I've just ordered a 16GB microSD to test this
You said you haven't tested it with stock ROM well that's precisely what I plan on doing... I'm running CM13 and after a couple of days of research there doesn't seem to be any solution in sight for the camera bugs. However after seeing your thread, I figured if all goes well I could be running CM13 daily and just reboot to the stock ROM when I need to shoot a video (necessary for my professional activity... I'd rather do this than always have my old phone with me).
I'll keep you updated once I get the microSD.
Edit: looks like your server is offline, I can't download your APK... I'll try to download it again tomorrow.

when i go to security options settings app crashes
cant setup fingerprint id
oh now it works after playing with the instalation settings
I got an error during installation and start bootlooping, latter with more time I'll try again.
Thanks to share your work with us.
Error finishing the installation:
set_perm: some changes failed
Other problems:
-Does not detect micro sd
-You can not configure a screen lock method (settings close when you try to enter that section)
-Developer options can not be activated (the settings are closed when you press compile)
Those problems are what happened to me, I followed the installation instructions exactly as it says in the post
same problem with me

The rom is working or not?
thanks for the rom!
followed the install instructions except i didn't install the TWRP321_OREO_P20LITE.rar because i previously installed it following these instructions.
chose to install the custom kernel and SuperSU. not sure right now what else. i will write it down when i try the next build.
i encountered the following issues:
-error finishing the installation: set_perm: some changes failed during flashing (could this be because i didn't install your modded TWRP?)
-unable to set the lockscreen options
-unable to set up fingerprintid
-settings crashes when attempting to enable dev options
-sd card isn't detected within the fw
once i saw the sdcard isn't detected, i tried to recover from my latest backup but TWRP wasn't able because /system was only mounted as read-only (could this be as well because i didn't install your modded TWRP?).
ended up having to reflash stock from erecovery, rerooting and reinstalling TWRP in order to restore from my last backup (maybe i did something wrong?).
after reading the features list, i personally would use it as my main rom. i'd love to see it with viper4android included and with an all dark theme though but that's just me.
thanks for your work! looking forward to more!

Well, if you eliminate the fact that the fingerprint reader or any other screen lock method does not work, you can not use the micro sd and the developer options are not available. So yes, the rom works.
You can try to urge it, maybe you're lucky and do not have mistakes.

Nope, so far I haven't seen anyone reporting positively. No fingerprintid and no security features makes the rom pretty much unusable as far as I've tested and seen on the thread. I'm awaiting to see how this develops..

Awesome! I'll try again!
Did you flash the recovery included in the post?
What do you mean with "If you mark check the navbar, and status bar while in aroma installer"?
Thanks for the feedback!

YES. I HAVE FLASH THE RECOVERY. AND WHEN YOU FIRST DO THAT... AND YOU SHOULD PUT THE ROM INTO YOUR SD CARD..
YES, IF YOU MARK CHECK THE NAVBAR ANF STATSBAR. WHILE CHOOSING YOUR DESIRED APPS. YOU WILL SEE THAT IN THE VERY LAST PAGE OF THE AROMA INSTALLER. WHERE YOU HAVE THE OPTIONS. NAVBAR STATSBAR, SOLID EXPLORER, KERNEL AUDIATOR, AND the QUICK REBOOT. SO JUST MARK CHECK THE SOLID EXPLORER,KERNELAUDITOR,AND QUICK REBOOT..
SO TRY IT NOW. AND GIVE ME SOME FEEDBACK IF IT WORKS IN YOU. ALSO KINDLY TRY TO DO A SCREENSHOT. I DONT HAVE OTHER PHONE TO TAKE A SHOT ON IT. KUDOS THANKS
ok so i flashed the provided recovery and the rom following the instructions with the following options in aroma installer:
Kernel: Morfu2kernel
Root: SuperSU
Camera: P20 Pro
Music: Stock
Kernel Auditor
Quick Reboot
the installation went through except bootimage patcher failed at decompressing ramdisk (failure, aborting).
edit1: after a cache wipe, i rebooted the phone. the phone boots but no root.
tried to flash SuperSU through TWRP but failed.
wiped data/cache/dalvik/system & reflashed rom with Stock kernel & Magisk no bootimage patcher errors. after a cache wipe, rebooted & phone has root :victory:

Update Rooted Tab S6 SM-T860 without wiping data using Odin

Normal disclaimers, I take no responsibility if things go sideways. While this worked for me you should probably backup anything you care about.
My tablet was only rooted with no TWRP. I haven't needed TWRP installed permanently for quite a while now.
Have working adb tools
Download the current/updated firmware with frija or other tool
Extract the firmware
Adb push the AP_XXXX.tar.md5 file to your device sdcard
adb push AP_XXXX.tar.md5 /sdcard/Download/
Open Magisk (I'm using the canary version, may not be needed but I know it works for A11)
Select Install
Select and Patch a File
Choose the file you just copied to the device
Magisk will patch the file and return a file name and location
adb pull this file back to your computer
adb pull /sdcard/Download/magisk_patched_xxxxxxx.tar ./
Turn off all your magisk modules. (If your modules are all compatible with the version you're going to this is ok but mine were not which sent my tablet into a bootloop after the update)
Turn tablet off
Open Odin
Hold both volume buttons and plug in the usb cable to your computer
Push the volume up button to continue to download mode
Add the AP, BL, and HOME_CSC files to Odin.
NOTE: If you use the CSC file instead of HOME_CSC you will wipe the device/factory reset. This can be used on a fresh device to gain root as well.
Cilck start and wait for the process to complete
If you forget to turn off the magisk modules and end up in a bootloop like me, hold the volume up button. Eventually the the tablet should go into safe mode which will cause magisk to disable all the modules. Mine finally booted after this.
Passing SafetyNet:
Turn on Magisk Hide
Get the safetynet fix test 2 module from kdrag0n
SafetyNet should pass with basic attestation
Fix Bluetooth with the BluetoothLibraryPatcher module. If you don't you will need to re-pair bluetooth devices after each reboot.
Thanks. I have been hoping the this was possible. I guess a kernel install needs a wipe then? SELinux is really getting on my nerves.

Can't say. I primarily root to block ads and route my hotspot traffic though my VPN. The stock firmware with root gives me that.
Using my steps you would end up with a stock rooted kernel. If your existing setup plays nice with that you should be ok. You could always try and see, worst case you have to wipe anyway.
I'm using successfully this method: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...unencrypted-and-retain-all-your-data.3798256/ to update the s8. The tab isn't rooted (yet) so haven't use it here.

I'm afraid very little of that will apply to the Tab S6.
... well, when I'll be rooted, I'll definitely try it Maybe someone will try it earlier and report it ... .

Thanks OP. This worked easily for me and I'm now updated. The S6 is working far better - less lag, more battery. I'm a happy camper.
Did you have the boot loader unlocked and Dm-veity disabled when you did this?
i used this meathod and it checked my file system booted into download mode and gave me this error: there is a root hash in your system.
I have managed to fix this issue with no data loss though

Hi, I have a short question.
I tried to update my Samsung Tab S6. I downloaded the latest firmware file from November and copied the AP*.tar.md5 file over to the tablet. I started Magisk (v23) and tried to patch the file, but every-time I select the file nothing happened. Where is my mistake, please?
Hello, and thank you for your work. Would there be any updates/changes to this procedure, for the android 12 update?

Post #585
I have done it many times and all is working fine and no issue with Android 12.
No need to keep your hand on the buttons as it will reboot on TWRP anyway...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Well I had some issues, I'm sure by some error on my part. Perhaps instead of just turning off my modules in Magisk, I should have uninstalled them. I couldn't get out of the bootloup, holding the volume up button did not work. I was able to get into recovery, and factory reset it. Then it booted up no problem, with Magisk installed. Was able to root no problem. Luckily I predicted there would be problems, and I used an app on Fdroid called Neo Backup, which successfully restored all apps and data, and cache. Samsung cloud was used to restore all settings, WiFi passwords, wallpaper, etc.
Arobase40 said:
You said nothing about your configuration and if you have TWRP or not, if you used normal CSC or HOME_CSC.
If you used normal CSC, this should be the problem as it needs to factory reset your tab !
Finally, is your tab updated now and running and with which version and from which initial version ?
Finally, if you have Magisk up and running, you can also download and install "Magisk Bootloop Protector" module...
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I did have TWRP installed, and was careful to use HOME_CSC, as I did not want my device wiped. Tablet is fully updated to 12, and rooted and running well. I updated from latest build of 11 stock firmware. I had Riru and LSPosed modules and Busybox modules. I'll probably put Busybox back on, but I only put LSPosed on, for Gravitybox, which I don't think I will use anymore anyway.
Didn't not know about the Bootloop protector module, good tip.

I need to delete this post from my favorites. It keeps screwing me over every time I follow this post to update.
correct me if i am wrong, i am outdated
1 with home_csc, it won't wipe if you are rooted with encryption disabled (in the past). is it true that if i am on stock firmware and root it, twrp can handle the data partiition properly without wiping my data now?
2 i havent set any password. this was required for decryption in twrp for reading the data partition partition. so without any password set, will twrp able to keep my data, ie without wipe?
and,
3 as @l7777 mentioned "I have managed to fix this issue with no data loss though", how did you do that?

It's been a long time since I did this. My only issue was Magisk module compatibility. I don't use TWRP anymore so I can't speak to that. I have to imagine with the changes to Magisk and Android 12 things will be different.

Thank You for adding this rom. Been a long time since I've ran crDroid. Really looking forward to it.
so i have looked, but what do you mean with having "crDroid REcovery installed on both slots?"
so in fastboot i would set current slot a.. flash recovery, then set slot b.. flash recovery?
been out of the flashing thing since the LG v20 so this has changed a bit.
Good day all. I just flashed my onplus 7t McLaren to crDroid Rom. And I love it. Just a quick question. When the screen is off I have to press the power button for it to wake up. How can I do it so I tapped on the screen instead for it to come up? Thank you

Thank you very much that did it..
So far, super impressed with this ROM and the overall experience! I like the little "ditties" under the Welcome to crDroid at the top!
So question, the Preinstallation section says, "Magisk 20.0 or newer for root (after first boot) - (Download from here)". I have installed the Magisk APK from the Github repo, and it confirms "Ramdisk Yes" which, from what I am reading on Magisk's install page, means I need to patch the boot.img file. Magisk says, "You should be able to extract the file you need from the official firmware packages or your custom ROM zip (if using one)." I think that means I need to somehow extract this .img file from crDroidAndroid-11.0-20210927-hotdogg-v7.10.zip. However, when I look into that zip, I'm not seeing it. Forgive me if I am just misinformed or overlooking something!
Super happy to see some development on hotdogg again, and one of my favorite ROMs no less. I just hope to get regular updates unlike everything else (besides Carbon 8.0, not even 9.0), but am super happy to find everything working, unlike some of the one off ROM builds on here. So far, no problem (other than not realizing Gapps weren't included and Magisk causing softbricks if installed before setup). Everything tested so far is working and has the battery life I expect from crDroid.

So the easiest way to install magisk and (I did it on this ROM) is to rename magisk.apk to magisk.zip and install that through TWRP. On this ROM, you MUST do it after setup or risk a potential soft-brick.
Found my first issues. Cannot install Magisk modules through the Magisk app, and TWRP decryption doesn't seem to work. I'm not sure if the issues are related, but the Magisk issue seems related to the kernel and it's ability to process different file formats. Interesting enough, Substratum module installed automatically fine and Systemless hosts also works fine, but modules from the repo fall with a simple "Installation Failed" message. Tried turning off passcode but that didn't allow TWRP to see any folders inside /sdcard still so couldn't try installing modules in TWRP how I normally would either.
I have been using with this rom and i wanted to see if anyone had this issue, lets say you are on a call and I have the speaker on, I hear crackling noises. ?? cant figure out

I was looking for a method that didn't involve TWRP since I too came across the same issues you encountered. I actually just finished rooting crDroid a few minutes ago. Here were my steps:
Grab a copy of payload-dumper-go (I used payload-dumper-go_1.2.0_linux_amd64.tar.gz)
Make it executable and install golang if you haven't already
Unzip crDroidAndroid-11.0-20210927-hotdogg-v7.10.zip
Type: ./payload-dumper-go crDroidAndroid-11.0-20210927-hotdogg-v7.10/payload.bin
Copy the boot.img file from new folder to your phone
Also copy Magisk-v23.0.apk to your phone and install it
Open the Magisk app and and tap Magisk > Install
Choose Select and Patch a File (should be the only option you can choose at the moment)
Browse to and choose the boot.img file
Once patched, copy the resulting magisk patched .img file back to your computer
Restart your phone into fastboot mode
Then flash with: fastboot flash boot /path/to/your/magisk_patched.img file
You may also want to flash the other boot; for example, in my case boot_a was flashed, so I then typed: sudo ./fastboot flash boot_b ~/Downloads/magisk_patched-23000_dCYIE.img
Then restart your phone!
These are the steps I performed, gleaned from the Magisk github's install.html#magisk-in-recovery page and also @gwolfu at https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...droid-v7-10-13-sep-2021.4292267/post-85192599

YOU ARE THE SOLE RESPONSINLE FOR WHAT HAPPENS TO YOUR DEVICE. PROCEED WITH CAUTION!​
Hi all! I should have posted this years ago but anyways... This rom is made due to the fact that there is no bug-free rom for Galaxy J8, not even any development going on. So, I decided to de-bloat the latest stock firmware, polish it a bit, configure some settings and fix some of the issues.
Twrp and Root Guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...d-flash-twrp-j810f-g-m-y-gf-j8y18lte.4479201/

INSTRUCTIONS​HOW TO MAKE A CLEAN INSTALLATION (WARNING! YOU WILL LOSE ALL YOUR DATA INCLUDING INTERNAL STORAGE -pictures, songs, downloads, files, apps etc.-)
1. Install/Update TWRP (use v3.5.0) (big thanks go to goldfish07)
2. Create backup, INCLUDING VENDOR (everything you need - including your files in internal storage - use an external storage if possible)
3. Reboot into TWRP. Navigate to Wipe/Format Data type yes and apply it. Then, go to Wipe-Advanced Wipe, select ONLY these "Dalvik/Art Cache - System - Vendor - Data - Cache" and format them.
4. Copy "J8_De-Bloated_Stock_Rom_v7.1.zip" to your internal or external storage and flash it.
5. Reboot and enjoy! (it might say "NO OS INSTALLED", it is normal when you format system from advanced wipe and then install the zip, just swipe and system will start) (first boot may take a couple of minutes, please be patient, YOU WILL ONLY SEE THE "SAMSUNG LOGO", NOT the animation and it is NORMAL)
HOW TO MAKE A DIRTY INSTALLATION (ONLY IF YOU ARE COMING FROM ANOTHER VERSION OF DEBLOATED ROM) (YOU WILL NOT LOSE ANY DATA)
1. Open "J8_De-Bloated_Stock_Rom_v7.1.zip" using the latest version of "WinRAR" on pc or the latest version of "RAR" on Android.
2. Go inside the "data" folder and delete the 3 folders (adb, app, system). Do not delete the "local" folder.

While system update check, it also verifies your display originality. If you change your display on untouched stock rom, it will be permanently disabled unfortunately. You should have upgraded to debloated rom or disabled system update apps so that you could keep using changed display. There is no luck fortunately. (you cannot downgrade to Android 9 to solve the issue because bootloader does not allow that)
This and the "More info about bloatwares" is great, thanks for all your efforts. The device is finally usable without stutter even when scrolling.
But there is a small thing -> I think you should remove default magisk so that it can be installed with app and be able to update.

You're welcome. I configured some of the Magisk settings so that you do not need to do anything so as to be able to successfully pass SafetyNet. Additionally, If I remove default installation of Magisk as an app, stub app will give you error while downloading the app unfortunately. Lastly, Magisk v24.3 is the latest working version for J8. Magisk v25.x versions will bootloop the device. Therefore, do not attempt to update Magisk. Considering these issues, I decided to include Magisk and its configurations. If you still want to remove it, open "J8_De-Bloated_Stock_Rom_v7.1.zip" using the latest version of "WinRAR" on pc or the latest version of "RAR" on Android. Go inside the "data" folder and delete the 2 folders (adb, app). Then flash the .zip.

TWRP 3.6.x.x for Samsung Galaxy J8 Note: I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE OF ANY DAMAGE WILL HAPPEN AFTER YOU FLASH THIS TWRP , ALWAYS DO BACKUP FIRST DOWNLOAD MODE 1. power off your Samsung J8/On8 2. press & hold both vol+ & vol- keys and insert USB driver...

You can uninstall it from Magisk homepage "Uninstall Magisk". The system may not boot without Magisk. Keep this in mind.

Download the necessary apps from "Deleted Apps" folder inside the Google Drive folder and copy them to corresponding folder and reboot.
