[REQUEST] How to install Magisk or Xpossed

I want to use Snapchat but it doesn't work with root. Is it safe to install Xpossed or Magisk and how do i install them? I have rooted MHA-L29C432B182.
Is there a any method to run Snapchat without hiding the root?
Found an app named root switch and that solved my problem.

Root system mode

Hi guys,
My Pixel are systemlessly rooted with Magisk since many months now, but for some reasons I'm tired by the method of Magisk: I want to touch at the /system partition, move or delete or edit system files and apps, and with Magisk I can't do it.
Okay, Magisk was pretty useful for keeping Safetynet pass, but with Xposed this ability becomes useless for me. Only things I'm still using is Magisk Hide for using Netflix or NFC paiment app, and Sony Framework module for using PS4 Remote Play.
Before I'm using Magisk and his systemless mode I was using SuperSU, and with it I had no problem with the system partition or with différents things like flashing Viper4android (didn't works whatever the way I use, magisk module or old system mode, it says the drivers need to be reinstalled), mouting partition/making file partition in Linux Deploy, stop background app, modifying the booting apps...
So I'm here now: are they exist a method for having system mode root and still using magisk modules ? Or maybe I've using the wrong way with Magisk and I've missed something for properly having root access ?
Thanks for your help ?

the whole point of magisk is to systemless modifications. I'm not sure that I follow all of the modifications that you want to make to the system partition?? or rather the specific apps that you want to use... but I can tell you that your /system partition (and others) are just mirrored with magisk and are tmpfs file systems...
I think the real /system lives in /dev/magisk/mirror/system, unless I'm mistaken....
question though; if you prefer SuperSU and only use magisk for safetynet, then why not just use a custom kernel that passes safetynet + SuperSU + suhide?. ... and then use that xposed or whatever....
anyhoo, you definitely have root access. but the intention with magisk and it's modules is to modify the system without actually modifying it directly....

If Magisk create a mirror of /system as your said, this explain many things that I didn't knew since now.
This night I've made a clean installation of my Pixel, on stock 7.1.2 NJH47F with ElementalX 1.15 for hiding the unlocked bootloader, then I've flashed SuperSU 2.82 SR5. On xda I've seen that suhide 0.55 are discontinued since one year, and suhide-lite 1.09 who works with SuperSU 2.89 are uncompatible with Xposed, so I didn't flash it. There is a way to hide SuperSU with Xposed ?
For my needs with the /system partition, I'll try to explain better myself, I give you some examples:
- Uninstalling system app in ES Explorer or TiBu, it works but after reboot those apps are still here.
- Editing files like build.prop, unable to save the edited file or to replace original file by a modified one
- installing Viper4android drivers, it says "drivers needs to be reinstalled" everytime I launch it
- Linux Deploy, an app for running GNU/Linux distrib on your device, works the first time I launch it, but after reboot he said he didn't get root permission or found busybox, it's very strange.
Many things who worked before with SuperSU 2.79.
Edit : and what about SuperSU and CCMT ?

You should look in Magisk's log to get a better idea of how it changes your system. trting to modify /system is pointless since it is a tmpfs mount (temperary)...
unfortunately, i can't help much with xposed. i don't use it. after it didn't work with Nougat, i ported a couple of it's modules to my rom (at the time) and then i got the pixel and i run Oreo + my own custom kernel + magisk...
xposed isn't providing any 'suhide' tyype functionality?

again, no point in editing your /system partition, it's a tmpfs mount, of course - any modifications will disappear on reboot.... you probably need to edit the real /system partition to make any change stick.
as far as the other apps, they obviously are trying to modify your aystem partition, which is why they don't work.... i think that you could install soumd mods via magisk modules?
i would recommend.consulting relevant forum threads on specific topics/apps though. u are bound to get better solutions&.
@billiepreks
Did you find the solution?
I'm in the same situation.
Did you try using TWRP's filemanager? I think it has true system access. You just need to mount the partition.

Converting a user app to system app corrupts phone on 9.0

Does anyone have experience with turning a user app into a system app on 9.0?
I tried using terminal emulator + app systemizer on magisk and Link2DS both ways have corrupted the phone.

Are you able to recover? If so, you may have to settle without it. I know Systemizer works on 8.1, but I didn't try it on 9.0 before I downgraded. I'm not aware of any other options besides manually moving it, but that would break your systemless root, and would also need to be done after every update.
If you can't recover but can get into fastboot, you can boot into TWRP and flash "Magisk Mount". That will allow you to remove the Systemizer module manually from the Magisk image and boot back into the OS. As for Link2SD, I've never used it, so I'm not sure what changes it made that would have to be undone in order to recover.

I just flash-all to fix it then reroot with Magisk. How do I convert an app to system through recovery (in twrp)?

As long as you dont care about remaining systemless and passing SafetyNet, you could simply move the apk folder into the system app folder manually. You could do it either through TWRP's built in file manager, or do it live with a root capable file manager. Either way should work.
Again, it's not ideal as it will trip SafetyNet and must be done after every ROM update/flash. So, if you have anything that depends on SafetyNet, that's not an option for you.
Another possibility would be to look at the Magisk documentation for module building and make your own module which would inject whatever apk you need systemlessly. You could accelerate the learning process by downloading one that already does something similar and reverse engineering it to fit your needs.

[Q] Manually give root access to an app via terminal or any other method (SOLVED)

There's this app that needs root access but magisk wont prompt or show anything, Any help is appreciated
Hello people, i solved this issue by installing "sui", its a magisk module. Search it up on the magisk module section, Also make sure u have riru, a magisk module aswell installed

Question Messed up my root.. How to recover

So I have root via root checker and root beer is telling me I have root. All my apps that required root are working, but in magisk I can't access the modules.
No new apps are being promoted for root.
When I try to adb flash , it says there's a write error.
Latest everything on a p7p
What do you mean you can't access modules? Are the modules enabled or disabled in magisk? For new apps wanting root, when you look at the permissions in magisk, is root granted/enabled for those apps?
What write error? You need to be more specific with regards to your issues
