Magisk stopped working... - Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 Questions & Answers

I'm not sure if it was after an update or what but I'm just worried if I reflash I'll have to pay for an unlock file again. Anybody have suggestions? I have a TWRP backup, will it work?

I can't seem to root my Galaxy S8+

Hello,
I'm trying to root my phone, I've rooted before without any issue but this time I don't know why it won't work or what I'm doing wrong.
This is the current situation:
I just now flashed the december security patch and wanted to root again. So, I flashed TWRP, changed the file system of DATA to exFAT and then back to EXT4 (as for some reason it always fails to mount), I flashed magisk v15.2 along with the no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0. As far as I know, this is all the right way to root my phone but everytime I try to actually boot into the phone, I can't because of the "Unable to restart your device. The integrity verification has failed. (..)"
Any idea what I'm doing wrong or what I can do to fix this?
I had issues with mounting after TWRP install, i got around this by installing the TWRP app when rebooting to TWRP.

That's not the problem though, I fixed that by changing the file system and changing it back. I still can't root however.

disabled encryption

I have successfully decrypted my essential phone using the dm verity disabler by zackptg. Need to test it some more, but twrp boots after flashing it, instantly.it doesn't have that lag

were u rooted before or not? did u have to format everything in twrp?
edit it actually works!!!!!! I'm unencrypted...i can go into twrp while a pin is set....i can flash magisk with first boot of a rom and it boots...!!!!!
This is a huge advancement. I didn't think it worked until I booted into twrp. And it was instantaneous.so before I flashed the dm verity decryption zip, I did indeed wipe everything on both slots, then mounted system in twrp and flashed the zip, then I flashed the ROM.i will be switching back to stock to test if it stays decrypted later today. I'm running a gsi,(benzo ROM+ all my own customizations)rooted,with all the trimmings) the same mentality will have to follow, but it will be interesting to see how it goes with flashing stock fresh. I imagine restoring my nandroid will be fine and stay decrypted, but probably will have to flash stock, then after setup, back to twrp, wipe factory reset and flash the dm verity decryption zip..I think, I gotta just do it to be sure. Anyone who does this should share notes and that will help the community.
Here is a good question, wtf can I do to have lte again. ever since pie official, I lost lte.phone drops to 3g during calls only. I discovered this while searching for a fix for my volte. Hence,, switching to gsi's because they don't have volte and neither does my stock, even with fresh installs.i have t mobile.all the betas it worked fine.
Here's the thread folks

I have found that after booting up a gsi, factory reset it. Then be sure not to root with magisk. Every time I tried it killed my data and wifi. Use phhhsuperuser ab zip. I think I may have had to flash my modem.img a time as well after the initial install.
And yeah I got it kinda, still no lte. I'm gonna try a modem img from the pie firmware..I think it is the problem
Has anyone had success in decrypting on stock? I cant get it and then i lose touch with the phone booted up. So in other words do not try to decrypt stock. U will wreck your phone and the only way to fix it is to flash stock via fastboot AND adb sideload. One or the other doesnt fix it for some reason. Has to be both.

So these are all the steps I took to get it to work. All of these steps may or may not be necessary. I used aer0zer0's stock dump for the lastest release of oreo and flashed the wipe all bat. It did its thing and wiped and flashed on both slots. I booted into the rom and finished initial setup and enabled adb in developer settings. I rebooted to bootloader and flashed twrp to inactive slot. I booted into recovery and selected the format data option and typed yes. I rebooted to bootloader and reflashed twrp. When I booted into recovery I transferred the stockboot.img, magisk 17.1 zip, and disable encryption zip to the phone. I flashed the stockboot.img to the boot partition. I then flashed the disable encryption zip. I then mounted the system partition and flashed the magisk zip. Finally, I rebooted into the rom and set pin and fingerprint. I installed EX Kernel Manager and created a backup of the decrypted magisked boot.img just in case. I flashed twrp through ex kernel manager and rebooted to recovery. Everything stayed decrypted. I flashed my newly created boot.img backup and booted back to my rom. Thats it. I hope I remembered everything. I hope this helps. Again, I do not know if all the steps I took are required but it worked for me.

Oneplus 7 Pro Bootloop after overlay install, still booting into recovery

Hi guys. Really need your help. Oneplus 7pro ,european version running 10.0.4 software, latest magisk 20.4 i think? and twrp. Everything was running fine until earlier when I installed a system ui overlay (one i've used before) and now my phone is in a boot loop. I can access TWRP, I've run the substratum overlay uninstaller zip and removed all magisk modules but still i'm in a bootloop. I've never had a proper bootloop before and i'm very frustrated. I've googled for the past few hours and removed everything I can think of that could be causing issues. Does anyone have some advice that doesn't end with me losing all my data? I have a backup but its from a month ago. I've never had this issue before so i'm a little stuck. Thanks
Edit. Phone is fully accessible through my laptop I can see all my files and connect to it. I just cannot get it to boot,surely its a simple fix?

Hi,yes I can. Its loading the logo now so i'll wait and see what happens. If that works then what should be the next thing I do?
Edit: Slot B seems to be bootlooping on the logo unless its meant to take a few minutes
Is there a way to recover without wiping my data?
So slot A sits on the caution device rooted screen then defaults to the fastboot rescue mode which allows me to select reboot to recovery which is twrp. From there I have full access to the phone but still not booting to system. Slot B passes the fastboot screen and hangs on the one plus logo just circling around. This is my first rooted phone and I haven't had any problems until now so I'm hoping its something simple because I didnt do anything big to cause it. Hopefully someone has some insight.
Can I just sideload the current version of OOS i'm running using TWRP and not lose my data?

Will I lost root or relock the bootloader? I'm trying to find the least destructive way to get back to what I had which was oos 10 with twrp and magisk.
Uninstalled magisk and was able to reboot. However reflashing it as i want to retain root makes it bootloop again. Any possible fix for this that isn't a factory reset and reroot?
I can't get substratum or substratum themes to work on any rom or stock, nothing happens after reboots.....or everything turns this weird orange theme. Then one time it corrupted the whole OS and I had to wipe.

Thanks, i'll try this. Will I need to install TWRP again once I do this or is it unaffected?
Tried to dirty flash the same stock rom from TWRP but I don't think it did it properly. Can I dirty flash stock rom, flash magisk then try reboot to system?
Any help greatly appreciated.

OnePlus 7 Pro OTA Bootloop [Help!]

Woke up this am to an OOS update and remembered that there's a process to go through to not lose root and magisk, so I look up the thread and follow the simple directions.
Allow the OTA but do not reboot.
Go into Magisk and install again to internal
Stay in Magisk and install to inactive slot
Reboot
I did exactly that and upon reboot, my phone booted to my lockscreen pic and just flashes every second. Even in safe mode it bootloops at a flashing lockscreen.
I followed exactly what I was supposed to do, so is there a step missing? Or was I not supposed to take the OOS update that was being pushed today?
I can access TWRP still, and I do have a full backup available if I need it, but I'd much rather figure out how to move forward.
Thanks for any help you can give me!
OnePlus 7 Pro

TWRP & rooted
Yup same problem here. I uninstalled magisk from twrp and it booted fine. Will try with older magisk soon but I need the phone up and running today.

What exactly did you do to uninstall magisk from TWRP? I don't know how to do this...
Did you go into TWRP file manager and just delete /data/adb/magisk folder?
Just flash the magisk uninstaller zip
https://github.com/topjohnwu/magisk_files/blob/canary/magisk-uninstaller.zip
Edit:
Did a fresh magisk canary install, now it boots fine. Was probably a module issue, which is weird because I always disable all modules when performing OTA.

Thanks for that, didn't work for me though. I keep bootlooping at insecure bootloader warning.
I have messed something up pretty bad, after the last reboot, I'm met with the Qualcomm CrashDump mode -- dmverity device corrupted force dump
kernel_restart
Now I'm stuck, because I've tried to recover my backup, it goes through the process at just over 1000 seconds, has no errors or failures but still won't boot.
I need some help here.
Nevermind, I have to have this phone back up and running ASAP, so I used MSM Tool and started over. I figured spending a few hours setting it back up from scratch was the best way forward at this point.
I'm unclear on what caused this problem... maybe I had a magisk module that didn't disable, or maybe I forgot to disable a substratum layer or something, but I really borked myself all because of an OTA update.
Any further advice on what I might have done or what might have corrected it will still be appreciated because I'm sure there will be another OTA someday and I'd really like to avoid this happening again.
Thanks!
What I do when there is a new Ota is
download the update from the updater app
remove any passwords or finger prints
reboot to twrp
install the Ota
do no reboot
install twrp installer
do no reboot
install magisk
wipe dalvick
reboot
check if Magisk is installed and if not reboot back into twrp and install Magisk again
Hi. Magisk 20.4 not working my device. Has anyone managed to get it working?

Stuck on boot after trying to install original play store as system app through Lucky Patcher

Is there a way to fix this, I got twrp and root access still, I just can't boot into system? If not, is there a way to backup full app data via twrp since I still have root access?
I tried flashing gapps pico and nano but both came out with error as no sufficient space on system partition.
Try flashing your OOS zip in recovery and see if that fixes it.
