Magisk 19.1 / 7.1.2 Notes

This is for if you have Magisk 18.1 installed with manager version 7.1.1. Upgrading to manager 7.1.2 and then directly installing 19.1 caused my I3223 to go into a boot loop.
Image patching seems to have changed as well. With manager 7.1.1 we were able to directly patch the boot_X_FLASH_ALL-*.sin file. I had to extract boot.000 from the sin file before the new manager would patch it. Even so, the result is still a boot loop.
Reflashing older patched boot images did not restore root. In short, hold off on upgrading Magisk. If you have a solution please share. Thanks.

I was able to flash the older (v18.1) magisk patched boot image using fastboot. I will attach the image here if you need too. I had to split the RAR file into 3 parts due to limitation of XDA of RAR files to be 8MB.
Root is working fine, I was able to grant access to Titanium Backup. But seriously that was messed up. If that happened to my Shield TV and I lost all of my games I will be furious. Luckily, I tried that on the Shield TV before knowing it will mess up my Xperia 10 plus phone. What is more messed up is there is no way from Magisk Manager to keep using older APK or download older version of Magisk, I tried Custom URL in the settings to check the update from, but all I got was a spinning wheel while checking for updates.
Currently running Magisk Manager 7.1.2 and v18.1 , just ignoring the ZIP update.
Rule of thumb, if it aint broken, don't fix / update.

Thank you Rebel_X. I will try again tonight. I was hoping to retain userdata but that's probably what's giving me problems with the revert.

Has anyone tried 19.1 patched boot image on a fully reset phone? Do we know if that works?

Mine is I3223. I don't know if it is compatible with your model, but if it flashed fine and the phone booted, try to install magisk manager apk v7.1.1 and see if you are rooted.

The bugreport about magisk bootloops on xperia devices

Can't flash magisk with TWRP because latest twrp not available for OG Pixel

I have Android 10 on my OG Pixel. I have secured it with pin and fingerprint. When i booted twrp-3.3.1-0-sailfish.img it sucesfully decrypted data with PIN then i flashed latest available zip which is twrp-pixel-installer-sailfish-3.3.0-0.zip. Rebooted and phone booted normaly. Then i downloaded latest magisk zip and apk. I tried to flash magisk but pin unlock does not work in twrp 3.3.0-0 which i flashed. Then i tried to boot from twrp-3.3.1-0-sailfish.img and this version decrypts data fine. Maybe because it's newer version and there is some fix in there. Can i flash 3.3.1-0 to my device permanently?
Why there is no 3.3.1-0 flashable zip for OG Pixel? https://eu.dl.twrp.me/sailfish/
Pixel XL does have 3.3.1-0 flashable zip too which is dated the same as live boot img 3.3.1-0 image https://eu.dl.twrp.me/marlin/
Can i flash magisk from booted twrp-3.3.1-0-sailfish.img and not with twrp that i flashed? Will it work?

Twrp does not work on 10. You can root fairly easily by clean flashing 10, installing the latest magisk Canary build and then patching the boot.img through magisk. There is currently no working twrp and although you can root you cannot mount your system. We await further magisk updates to fix that.
Go to the main magisk support thread on XDA. It's all there.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/mod-magisk-v1-universal-systemless-t3432382/page3558
I've done it anyway and all working fine (apart from system mount). Magisk hide works, my adblockr works. It's all good.
Follow this guide for root. It works the same for the original Pixel

I removed fingerprint and pin code temporarily and flashed magisk.zip and installed magisk apk. All is working great. Then i set up pin and fingerprint and once there was some problem pin did not unlock phone fingerprint did. After reboot it also fixed.
Thing is if i boot 3.3.1-0 with fastboot boot it works, it decrypts data with pin. But 3.3.0-0 says pin wrong. I tried to install twrp-3.3.1-0.img from TWRP 3.3.0-0 with new menu to flash ramdisk but it says something that not enough memory available. How can i flash new 3.3.1-0 TWRP there is no zip. What version of TWRP do you have?

The issue you describe is nothing to do with being on Android 10. That issue of decryption with twrp has been around for a while. Just get rid of pin etc, then you will get into twrp. But. Twrp does not work with 10. There is no point attempting to flash twrp for the time being. It does not work.
If you want a working root, you need to do the old way by patching your boot.img. That seems to be the only working root method so far on 10

Why do you keep saying it does not work? I just got rid of pin + fingerprint then went into TWRP which i flashed before from live TWRP. Flashed magisk.zip it worked perfectly and then rebooted and installed magisk manager. TWRP works great with 10 if i do not have pin + fingerprint and magisk also works great.

I used twrp to flash Magisk on 10.0. I didn't flash twrp, just booted it. It flashed the normal magisk fine and I have root. What is more strange, my Pixel accepted and installed 10.0 via the OTA. I have never had a rooted phone accept an OTA before.

Magisk is systemless root maybe that's why it did that.

If Twrp sticks and works on 10 then that's good. But all the reports on XDA are saying Twrp will not stick and/or does not work on 10. You're the only person I've heard that has got a working Twrp on 10

No. Not tried. But if it worked for you that's good to know. I know for others it didn't work. Patching the boot.img only takes 10 minutes anyway.
Are you able to mount your system with magisk rooted 10?

I seem to remember getting some strange messages while flashing Magisk, like it couldn't mount system or something. It was in red. It seemed bad but it also came after successfully flashing Magisk, so it said. Everything was working fine after I rebooted. All root apps working as normal.

Howdy y'all, this is all something I did recently after resurrecting my Google pixel. I also got Android 10 and twrp working with magisk. All was good until I tried mounting system so I can edit build.prop. I spend a ton of time trying to research why I could not mount system. Came up empty until I found this thread with someone mentioning you cannot mount system. Why is this? Is there no way that I can edit build.prop in this configuration?

If your running Magisk you could try the Magiskhide props config module, Its in the downloads section of magisk manager. Should allow you to set custom props, there is a dedicated thread for it so may be worth a look there also.

Yeah, after trying everything under the sun I started going down this route but as I was going through the Magiskhide props config module menu I see "Edit Magisk Props" and "Edit custom props" but It made me believe that it creates / edits new custom props and could not see a way of editing the build.prop in /system. May need to dig further into it since I never used this module before. Thanks for mentioning the Magiskhide props config module support thread.

is rooted Magisk on Android 10 or 11 with Pixel 1 possible?

Is there a link. I currently have a pixel on 8.1 and I am trying to get a rooted pixel up and running so I can tether. This will be my daily phone. I am looking for the best solution for a safe and robust system that allows tethering. thanks for any leads.

Hey, almost a week late but hope it's still helpful. Yes I recommend the official 10 firmware with Magisk, flashed through a temporary TWRP.
I've been running this setup for months, I can use all my root apps, even Google Pay and Netflix no problem.

Accidentally Soft Bricked OP6; Recovered But Cannot Re-Install Magisk

Hello, and I apologize if this is in the wrong place, and if there is already a thread to solve my issue please direct me there (I could not find one for my specific issue). I cannot install Magisk without my OP6 becoming stuck in Fastboot mode (I can still access TWRP recovery); Should I get this Blu_Spark? People tell me it's better, especially on OnePlus 6.
So I was installing modules for Magisk, but Magisk itself is fairly new to me; I am used to SuperSU which is now outdated. I enjoy Magisk and its interface and the lot. Earlier today I attempted to install Viper4Android via Magisk and was told I needed BusyBox. I installed it from the app store, but then realized Magisk had a module for it. So I uninstalled BusyBox and installed the module. Upon reboot I found myself stuck in Fastboot. Luckily I could still access TWRP and managed to fix the Bootloop without losing data. I've since made a full backup of my things.
However, now I am facing a new issue altogether. After getting back into the phone Magisk told me that it was not installed. So I uninstalled Magisk via their flashable uninstaller and attempted to reinstall. Now I think Magisk itself is causing these issues. I don't want to wipe and do a fresh reset because the phone has a large capacity and I have a lot on it. Backup would be 180GB+ and restoration would take forever. Unless I'm missing something...
Basically I had to uninstall Magisk completely for it to go back to my phone. I just want my root. Also, is LineageOS worth it, I hear OxygenOS is superior but I enjoy the features Lineage has. Thank you.
Why is Magisk causing these issues? The only thing I can think of was my mess-up with BusyBox. If anyone could help me find an alternative to a factory reset to fix Magisk so it doesn't cause bootloop or fastboot I'd appreciate it.
Thank you for your time
FURTHER INFORMATION UPON INQUIRY

If its better to provide solution if you include exact version name of your OS or magisk or twrp or other details instead of mentioning just names!
However below Solution might work if you are in Android 10. Read and follow the steps carefully
1. So if you access TWRP, flash Magisk Uninstaller so it will remove magisk and its existing modules. Dont teboot
2. Then flash the stock boot image or Full Rom ZIP in boot partition(current boot partition). Don't reboot since now you will lose TWRP as it will replace stock recovery. Remember dont reboot
3. Flash TWRP installer zip(not twrp image) and then now reboot to recovery. So now you have a fully working TWRP in OOS 10 with Magisk stuff removed. . Don't reboot .
4. Now Flash Magisk v20.1. Reboot to system.
Edit: you can get Twrp img and zip file from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...overy-unofficial-twrp-touch-recovery-t3860815

Thank you so much for your suggestion, and reply. Magisk and TWRP were up to date (the latest releases); Magisk v20.1, and TWRP 3.3.1.2 ("Enchilada"). My device is a OnePlus 6 running Android 9, last updated August 1st of this year, "ONEPLUS A6003_22_190911"
I will try your suggestion and respond as soon as possible. If there is anything else you need to know, ask. I am new to the concept of forums so I've been kinda flopping around like a fish out of water. :laugh:

Hey, I'm in a similar situation you were in and I'm stuck in a bootloop after I flashed/installed busybox from magisk repo, I wanted viper 4android as well and while installing viper it said that I'd need busybox. Soon after I install busy box from magisk I'm in this bootloop, i have access to twrp luckily and i tried deleting this busybox and viper 4android module from twrp file manager but still I'm in a boot loop, can you guide me on how you managed to get out of this bootloop?? Thanks

How to Root OnePlus 8T Build 11.0.6.8.KB05AA

I previously had Magisk installed and rooted my 8T with Build 11.6.5.KB05AA. I followed some instructions on how to install an OTA update. I uninstalled Magisk and ran the OTA update. The instructions advise me to install Magisk on the inactive slot. However, I do not have this option. Instead, I only have Preserve AVB 2.0/dm-verify and Recovery Mode. I don't have TWRP installed so I don't think this will work. I've tried selecting Preserve and not selecting Preserve and selecting Next in Magisk. My next option is to "select and patch a file". I downloaded the bin for 11.0.6.8 and extracted it using payload_dumper and Python and copied it to my phone. However, whenever I try to patch it, Magisk states installation failed.
So, I figured I would finish the install of 11.0.6.8 and rebooted the phone using the update installation reboot button. I figured I'd just start from scratch and root following the original root instructions. My bootloader is already unlocked. I copied the boot.img from 11.0.6.8 to my phone and tried to patch using Magisk (again, I only have the options above). Again, it failed.
What am I doing wrong? Why won't Magisk patch the boot.img file? Shouldn't it work like an original attempt to root it?
Thanks.

Make sure you download the latest canary magisk manager. It sound like you might be on an older magisk version.

I seem to have the Canary Update channel set already (I thought it was set to Stable, but I guess not). Doesn't that mean I already have the latest Canary build? Manager shows that latest is 6951d926 (21402) (16) but Installed shows 658d74e0 (21402) (16). I assume this means they are different? Install doesn't seem to update it. Maybe grab the latest APK from Github? Thanks.
Later: Can I install it on my phone by download Magisk v21.4 zip and changing extension to APK and installing it? I thought I read everything is now in the zip/apk? Thanks.
FINAL UPDATE: OK, I downloaded the latest MagiskManager, not the one from Canary. I was then able to patch the boot file. The phone rebooted, but it's not working just right yet. None of my icons show up on my home screen, although if I press the recent apps list, it shows a bunch of apps, although selecting one doesn't do anything. I might have to put the original boot image back on just to get it to boot and worry about rooting later. Sigh. It's always something.

Have you tried following this guide it should work perfectly
[Guide] OnePlus 8T EASY ROOT (for all unlocked variants)
DO NOT FOLLOW THIS GUIDE IF YOU HAVE ANDROID 12 Visit this thread for more information ________________________________________________________ CAVEAT I've only tested this on my device running Android 11 (KB2005 / KB05AA), but it should be...
forum.xda-developers.com
In the latest canary apk released today he moved over to that the apk bundle magisk as well and don't need to download it anymore but it shouldn't matter for this case. There is no working custom recovery for Oneplus 8T right now. But if there was and it was updated you would be able to flash the apk.

You did not have to uninstall Magisk. When you would complete the OTA, instead of rebooting you should go into Magisk and select install to inactive slot. As you uninstalled magisk, you're not getting this option. Uninstalling magisk is different from disabling the modules.
Now you need to root it again using the same method given in other thread. Rooting 11.0.6.8 is no different from the rooting process for previous OOS versions.

I was able to patch the new boot image and flashed it but when I rebooted nothing worked quite right. None of my apps would run. I could get into settings but couldn't get out of it. I flashed the unrooted boot image and am able to use the phone. I'll try again tomorrow.
The instructions I followed said to uninstall Magisk first. Now wish I hadn't. I suppose worse comes to worse I can figure out how to reinstall 6.5 cause I was able to root that. Thanks for the reply.

In the latest canary apk released today he moved over to that the apk bundle magisk as well and don't need to download it anymore but it shouldn't matter for this case. There is no working custom recovery for Oneplus 8T right now. But if there was and it was updated you would be able to flash the apk.

I was looking at a different guide, but will try the one you recommend. I'm aware there is no TWRP for the 8T. I did use that method for my prior OP6. I did patch and flash the patched boot image, but none of my apps appeared on my home page so I flashed the unrooted boot image so I could at least use the phone. Thanks.

The instructions definitely lied to you...
Now:
1. Take the 11.0.6.8 boot image
2. Patch it with magisk (latest beta is fine, you don't need alpha anymore)
3. Boot the patched image
4. Install magisk manager in case it's not installed
5. Check it for root, if all is fine do install --> direct install
6. Reboot

When you say Boot the patched image, I assume you mean fastboot flash it to the device?
I tried updating Magisk using a beta channel, but then manager wouldn't work at all. I just wouldn't run. So I reinstalled Manager 8.0.7 from the APK I downloaded and now I don't have Canary as an update channel. I keep alternative between having a Magisk icon and a separate manager icon. Weird. I'm trying to only wind up with latest manager installed so I can re-root the phone. Thanks.
LATER: Success! I followed the steps here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/guide-oneplus-8t-easy-root-for-all-unlocked-variants.4210775/. And everything worked (which was linked in a prior message). Thanks to all!

I figured out that's what you meant when I followed the instructions linked in another message. I had never booted that way previously. Thanks!

I am about to root my 8t using the guide someone linked above. My question is.. I'm on ver. 11.0.5.6.KB05AA will I still be able to root if I update or will it take away the ability to root.. also, will it affect the quality of the root ? Thanks in Advance.

Lost root after installing TWRP. Can anyone share patched boot image for 11.0.5.1.GM21AA?

As above, I would appreciate it if someone could share a copy of a Magisk patched 11.0.5.1.GM21AA boot image. Thanks!
P.S. - Do not update to Magisk 24 or 24.1 unless you want to have to mess around with your phone!

I also had problems with updating Magisk trough the app. No root after reboot.
Could not get root access with flashing magisk in twrp. I tried several version of magisk but nothing worked. Ended up using the patched boot.img
Dont know what the problem is.

Thanks a lot!
I managed to get Magisk 23 installed, would the patched boot image be different from yours?

How did you do??
I tried to downgrade Magisk to 23.0 due to the lack of Magisk Hide but now my OnePlus 7 Pro is no longer rooted. So I tried to re-root it in several ways (flashing boot.img previously patched with Magisk Manager or by directly installing Magisk.zip with TWRP) but nothing to do, still without root...
I would like to try to use another boot.img but I would need one taken from a rom 11.0.5.1.GM21BA and patched with Magisk 23. I can't find it on the net.

Once you've upgraded to 24 or 24.1 it seems that the only way to go back to an older version is to use the built-in uninstall button in the Magisk app. Just trying to flash a new boot image over it doesn't seem to stick.
In my case, I had to:
Uninstall any version of the Magisk app
Install 24.1
Extract the boot image using Payload Dumper
Creating a 24.1 patched boot image to re-root my device
Uninstalling 24.1 using the uninstall button in the Magisk app
Install Canary Magisk (23 should work too)
Create a new 23 patched boot image and root using it
Still have not gotten around to fixing my MagiskHide and SafetyNet failing though, I think that requires some cache clearing and other steps to resolve. Also somehow managed to get rid of my TWRP accidentally along the way too, so I'll have to reinstall that again.

Thanks a lot!

I only see an "Install" button in the Magisk 24.1 app. I don't see an "Uninstall" button.
Were you already rooted when you saw the Uninstall button?

See steps 1-4. You have to temporarily root it by flashing a patched boot image (that was patched with 24.1) so that you can use the root privileges to uninstall Magisk. It's kinda ass-backwards I know...lol

Yep, that's weird. I was having (a ton of) trouble getting my phone rooted at the time, so that's why I didn't see it.
