Question Removing Magisk Module Through Custom Recovery on Android 12 - Xiaomi Poco X3 Pro

Is there any ways to remove Magisk Modules through Custom Recovery on android 12?
Incase we installed a Module that can cause bootloop
As you guys know since android 12
No Custom Recovery was able to decrypt data encryption yet, so we're unable to access the folder that contains Magisk Modules

You could use DFE (If you want unencrypted data) or use magisk module for recovery. to remove unwanted magisk modules

There is magisk module which check on start of the phone if any module makes a bootlop and disable it. Magisk Bootloop saver on github

Power phone off completely. Power on and when MIUI logo shows on screen hold volume down button until phone boots, this will disable all magisk modules you have installed. It's called magisk safe mode. You can now enter magisk app and enable modules one by one until you find the culprit.
Sidenote: I upgraded from xiaomi.eu 12.0.6 to 13.0.3 using fastboot. TWRP was unable to decrypt when I booted to recovery to install magisk after update. I rebooted back to MIUI and disabled pin and fingerprint. Rebooted back to TWRP and was able to access data and install magisk from the downloads folder. So try disabling screen lock and see if TWRP is working then.

Well orangefox has magisk manager built in, so modules can be removed with a swipe

you can navigate to data/adb/modules folder in twrp file manager without decryption needed and delete module folder.
worked for me on android 12.

I got stuck at Xiaomi logo after installing some module. The storage is encrypted on Android 12, decryption in recovery is not possible at the moment. So using OrangeFox or deleting /data/... is not possible.
The only solution that worked for me was accessing the safe mode and running this command from adb shell.
magisk --remove-modules

[solved]Q Beta 6 Magisk lost

I'm using the canary version of Magisk for the Q beta 6. Yesterday I tried to install a self made module to get rid of screenshot sounds (the one on the rep isn't working because Google changed the path. But as I installed it, I can only remember that the last line was "Magisk manager will be removed and your device will reboot in a moment" or something like that
Well, the manager is still installed, but Magisk itself got uninstalled. Besides the fact that I have no clue why that happened, now I can't install it. TWRP doesn't support Q. So I got the Q image from Google, extracted the boot.img and let Magisk Manager patch it (with preserve force encryption and Preserve AVB 2.0/dm-verity turned on) and flash it through Fastboot (fastboot flash boot magisk-boot.img) but it's still not installed. And without TWRP of course I can't flash the uninstaller zip (no clue what was actually removed).
Is there a way through adb or fastboot to find out what's left of the Magisk installation and remove that? Or any other solution I didn't think of?
Ok, via adb is not an option since both /data and /cache refuse permissions so I can't even get logs to find out what happened.
Does anyone have a working pre-patched boot.img? I don't know if that Manual method isn't working because patching isn't really working or because the Magisk files are still present and the module is still conflicting with Magisk. And I don't want to do a factory reset
Nevermind. It was a faulty Magisk database, I had to uninstall and reinstall it to solve the problem

Can I Modify boot.img to install Magisk in "Core Only"?

I have a Google Pixel 3a (Google Store), bootloader unlocked, been on Magisk Canary since I got it. When I updated to Android 10, one of the modules I had installed (Miracast enabler) was/is not compatible and caused a bootloop (I know, I'm stupid). Flashing the stock boot.img of course solves the problem because root is gone. This is an A/B boot device an 10 so:
- TWRP cannot decrypt /data which means I cannot access /data/cache
- No access to /data/cache means I cannot add the 'disable_magisk' file to boot Core Only mode
- No data/cache access also means I cannot simply delete the module/s
- Magisk through TWRP command prompt or adb are useless because, again, I cannot access /data/cache
The only possible solution I can think of is to modify my boot.img to boot Magisk in Core Only mode so I can remove the module, then flash a proper modified boot.img to regain full Magisk capability. I have poured over online documentation and cannot seem to find the answer on how, if possible, I can do this. Magisk's own documentation seems to suggest the only solution is to wipe /data.
Is there any way I can modify a boot.img to boot Magisk in Core Only mode always? Thank you!

Here you go :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=80190577&postcount=554
Since then there was also a patch to magisk to resolve this kind of issue.
While you can't boot you can still use "magisk --remove-modules" through adb shell (or twrp I guess), which will automatically remove all your modules next time you boot.

You have to use last magisk (above 19.4 if my memories are right).

This looks like it might work, so thank you! I found a similar, though different solution (below)

I ran into the issue that while boot-looping with a magisk patched boot img, I wasn't able to run the command, adb wasn't finding the phone. I tried again after booting TWRP and it basically threw an 'error - command not found'.

Remove Magisk modules on Android Q

After installing some Magisk modules on my P3 it doesn't boot anymore. It does boot if I flash the unpatched boot image, but not the one patched with Magisk. TWRP is not possible at this time on Android Q. adb shell does not work in recovery. Cannot access /data without root (so cannot delete modules manually and cannot create .disable_magisk)
Any ideas on how to enable Magisk but disable all the modules before the boot?
See this. https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-3/themes/magisk-modules-disabler-booting-magisk-t3967433

Magisk/Twrp for GSI (Won't work on stock)

I have a Twrp backup with the boot img patched with Magisk/Twrp boot to recovery boots GSI with magisk boot to recovery hold volume up while rebooting to recovery will boot twrp for this boot img to work u have to be on the vendor of the boot img which is also in the backup so the phone won't bootloop this vendor is modified to work with GSIs pass the magisk environmental setup and notch fix so swiping down is like swiping down on stock.... to implement notch fix go to developer settings hide display cut and choose the first hide option and your notch will be fixed...
Thanks @Spaceminer for the twrp for without this none would of been possible
please note twrp will only boot with a android 9 vendor and your GSI will only boot with magisk and twrrp with the vendor in the backup cause it matches the boot img, GSIs only boot when the vendor and boot img match
the boot img & vendor img in the backup is from Channel/Retail (PPY29. 105-160-4)
Instructions
If on android 9 stock
1. Boot to bootloader
2. fastboot - w
3. fastboot GSI of your choice
4. fastboot boot twrp.img
5. format data
6. Place the twrp folder you downloaded from the zip into your devices internal storage which will be available after u format data
7.Resize system
8.Flash gapps zip if gapps is needed
9.wipe dalvick
10. go to twrp restore boot and vendor
11. reboot to recovery and phone will boot after boot is complete install magisk manager it will do the environmental setup phone will reboot and u will have magisk.... ( if u want the best experience with magisk on this device I recommend that you use havoc cause with the lineage GSI magisk doesn't play nice but with havoc its stable also when making a backup it's boot, system image, vendor image, data if u chose system instead your backup will bootloop your device upon restoration)
Download (twrp img is in twrp folder remove it and place it in ADB folder)
https://mega.nz/file/7t03DLhL#jjS9vgrJMlDS-_-hsApyx4uJ6L8wXCN8HtjSqJrg2ds
if u wanted to do this manually to install the latest canary or stable version magisk need to patch twrp to the recovery flash phh root boot up install magisk manager give it root permissions with phh superuser from apk mirror now with elevated permissions the option patch directly will be avaliable cause u got root (it's the recommended option ?) chose recovery and leave the other 2 unchecked patch the img and reboot to recovery the phone will reboot os with magisk and u hold up while booting recovery will boot twrp after that backup that boot img in twrrp for future installation of the GSI of your choosing....

Everytime u flash a GSI just use the vendor and boot from the twrp folder and your android 10 GSI Will have magisk and twrp no need for data disabler zip cause my backup already has the vendor and boot patches enabled for decryption so twrp will be accessible via boot to recovery
([emoji88]Havoc GSI[emoji88])
Also have edxposed for Android 10 since the one in the repo won't work cause it needs a custom magisk with merged patches for xposed to work on android 10 this version has the patches in the edxposed so having to use a custom magisk won't be an issue cause as ya know obtaining magisk and twrrp in this device was unknown into this OP was made

Thanks so much for the instructions, only way i could install on G7 play.
The only thing is I always have to boot in recovery mode to start the system.
If I boot normal it starts again. Any way to solve this ?
I think somehow I flashed my ROM to the recovery partition ?
thank you!!

Your on a GSI go in your system settings and activate advance boot and when u have to reboot just put reboot to recovery and you don't have to worry about manually rebooting to recovery everytime u have to reboot also no way u installed the rom to the recovery partion our device doesn't have a recovery partion the recovery lives within the boot img

thanks, not sure if I can do this with my Treble gsi (phhusson).
The other thing is that some things got messed up after instalation for example I cannot put in a passcode for the phone.
Is there no other way to install magisk on the G7 play ?
Maybe this has to do with the vendor and boot beeing different model than mine wich is XT 1952-2 (latin american model)
thanks

The reason the lockscreen doesn't work is cause the device is decrypted which is essential for the device to be able to reboot to twrp my vendor has the decryption patches for the full functionality of twrp however if u don't care about twrp and just want magisk just patch a fresh version of your boot img in magisk manager with the patch a file option and fastboot that boot img to your device install fresh GSI with your vendor so it will boot encrypted since your vendor doesn't have the decryption zip patches in the vendor... However with this method to have full functionality with magisk u will have to remove from vendor/bin/init mimi hab if this file isn't removed your magisk won't pass the environmental setup... U be given root privileges with magisk before u have to do the environmental setup so u can remove that file...

Yes I understand, sounds logic. I tried to follow your guide but it didn't work.
I did the following:
1. Followed your first instructions with restore vendor and boot in the end to have magisk twrp (Now on Android 10).
2. patched the boot.img (stock one Android 9) with magisk and pulled via adb on computer
3. fastboot flash boot boot.img (patched)
4. Fastboot flash system gsi.img (android 10)
After that I get a bootloop if I go via normal boot and recovery doesn?t boot either.
In the end I tried to flash the stock vendor.img but everything stayed the same.
Not sure how to remove the file in the /vendor/bin, with twrp ?

The easiest way I know of is from the stock OS using termux and root.
Code:
su
setenforce 0
mkdir /mnt/x && chmod 0755 /mnt/x
mount -o loop /dev/block/by-name/vendor_a /mnt/x
Now navigate to /mnt/x and everything from vendor will be in there. Find the file and delete it with a root explorer. Then unmount the partition and the changes will be permanent. Doing it this way gets around FEC, which is what prevents you from changing anything in vendor.
Code:
umount /mnt/x
If you need to work on the other vendor partition just change out vendor_a with vendor_b
Any recommendation about what GSI to choice for XT1952-6 variant?

Chaos GSI Bluetooth works without disabling audio effects (so u can use viper with bluetooth headset) it's clean stock with minimum stuff added to it and works with gravitybox then you got havoc that has the majority of stuff gravity has off the rip so it's not as minimum so more memory usage is needed and Bluetooth only works with the phh disable audio effects work around also magisk works good on both of these lineage is good also if you don't care about magisk working cause with our device magisk has issues on lineage don't know if it was fixed on a recent bulid however if lineage is your preference there is a phh root for it so u can be functional

My device is xt1952-4. I downloaded the latest firmware (PPYS29-105-160-4-8), and installed it to both slots. I am currently using Resurection Remix Pie. Is your patched boot.img and vendor compatible with the newer firmware or will I get a downgrade error?

[Magisk][Recovery] Fully install/Upgrade Magisk through recovery mode ?

Hello,
I have a problem with my FP3. When I flash the Magisk zip with TWRP or when I flash the patched boot image through Fastboot mode, Magisk is not completely installed. I need to boot et click on the "Magisk app" with a standard icon to install it and to access Magisk Manager. Without this, Magisk is not really installed since "su" or magisk executable are not in /sbin.
I need a way to manually install/upgrade Magisk through recovery (TWRP) to obtain the su. In my context, I have constraints preventing the installation through GUI.
Have you already done this before ?
