Hello guys, I open a Question and Answer Thread for all SuperMan Rom users, so even users under 10 posts can ask their questions here.
Below I added some basic Q&A stuff which can also be found at the main thread, if you have any question, read through them before posting, thanks!
In case you search for the changelog have a look: Changelog post
If you want to see my post with all useful links such as TWRP, magisk, xposed and more visit: useful post
Basic Questions:
Q: How to get into Download Mode?
A: Power off your phone, than hold: home + volume down + power on button until you see the download mode.
Q: How to get into Recovery Mode?
A: Power off your phone, than hold: home + volume up + power on button until you see the recovery mode.
Q: My Phone is stuck at boot and doesn't start, what to do??
A: Update your bootloader and modem. Also make sure you have made a fresh install of the rom. Bootloader and Modem can be found in the OP. Another problem can be that you are didn't decrypt your phone. To fix this read below how to disable encryption.
Q: Do I need to update bootloader and modem after every update?
A: It's recommend to update your bootloader and modem everytime there is a new base yes. The developer will tell you if necessary on every rom changelog.
Q: I get verification failed at start up!?!? My phone is broken now?
A: Yes, you have to buy a new phone now. Just kidding You did not disable force encryption in TWRP (how to do so you will find below in how to decrypt your phone).
Q: I get verification FRP LOCK? WHYYYYYY???
A: Very simple answer, you did not enable OEM Unlock in developer options. Now you need to flash full rom with odin again and start from scratch. But don't forget to enable OEM Unlock this time!
Q: Which devices are supported at the moment?
A: Current supported devices are: SM-G930F/FD/K/L/S/W8. Snapdragons are NOT supported
Q: Is this rom working on Snapdragon 820 variants?
A: No, sadly not.
Q: I want to change something in my rom setup, how can I do that?
A: Simply reflash the same rom version without any wipe and than choose the correct things you want.
Q: Some features are not present in this rom, but they are on stock rom, so where are they?
A: In aroma installer you have the option to select bloat you want to install or not, you probably didn't select all package, this is why it's missing now.
Q: After a clean install my phone is overblated with many custom settings. What to do?
A: Open my romcontrol, grant it root permissions and then my default settings will be applied.
Q: Will you add X or Y feature?
A: You can kindly ask in the thread for that, if I like your suggestion I will think about adding it to the rom.
Q: You said you fixed SD card RW but Titanium Backup can't write to external SD card, why???
A: This is because of googles changes concerning SD card, to fix this open Titanium Backup, Menu, Preferences, Backup Folder Location, Storage provider and than hit DocumentProvider Storage and select your SD card. Problem solved
Q: I can't find X and Y mod. Please help
A: I've added many links and useful stuff to this post here. Hope that's what you have been looking for!
Q: I want to have my external storage like an internal as well. Google introduced it with android Marshmallow, but I can't see this option?
A: Just follow this Guide here and you can setup your SD card as normal storage
Q: I got a new strange icon appearing after nougat update. What's that?
A: This is a new advanced calling feature introduced in android nougat. Should make your call quality better or something like this. To hide it please visit following forum: Get rid of RCS icon
Questions concerning rom updates:
Q: Do I have to do a full wipe for the new version?
A: It is always the best option to make a clean install, otherwise please don't come and report bugs!
Q: But I don't want to make a full wipe when only small stuff changed!
A: For updates using the same bases you can install the rom with a dirty flash. BUT with a new base a clean install is highly recommend!
Q: What steps should I do to update to a new version with a full wipe but keep all data?
A: There are some different ways. One way is to make a backup with Titanium Backup, you can backup all Apps and Preferences there. Make sure to store this backup on external SD card (if you have one). Second way would be to save your data onto a google account or samsung cloud and restore it after a clean install.
Q: I miss an apk after rom update, how can I get it back?
A: Simply reflash rom and select "dirty flash" in aroma + select the app this time in aroma.
Q: My battery life is so bad and performance is very poor after an update!?!?
A: This comes actually not form the rom itself, dirty flash can cause problems even if only some small things have been changed. So simply install it clean again and it will solve your problem.
Q: Performance and battery is very poor even after clean install. What should I do now?
A: I assume you installed Xposed than, some modules can cause batterydrain and performance problems. So try to make a clean install of the rom WITHOUT xposed installed.
Questions about log and logcats:
Q: I got FC's and other Problems with the rom, what to do?
A: Take a logcat for me, developers use to say: without a log, it never happened . A logcat can be grabed with a PC and ADB installed, simply type: adb logcat > log.txt while your phone is connected and the error is happening. Same can be done if you have a terminal installed on your phone. Simply type adb logcat > log.txt and you will have the same output as on the PC.
Q: What kind of logs can I provide to help you?
A: Logcat: This one is for general infos about FC's
DMESG: this is for kernel related things
Last_Kmsg: this can be used after a random reboot
Q: How to get logs?
A: 1. Connect your phone to your pc
2. Make sure you got usb debugging enabled
3. Install Minimal ADB tool
4. After install open it and type: adb logcat > logcat.txt, adb shell dmesg > dmesg.log, adb shell cat proc/last_kmsg kmsg.log
5. Send me the file you got
You can also send me a log created by your phones terminal with the exact same commands!
Questions about RomControl:
Q: None of my romcontrol changes do anything, why are you such a bad dev!?!?
A: The problem is not on my end, you installed stock systemUI (which is STOCK and does not support one single mod). Use another one in aroma instead. The same thing can happen with good lock!
Q: Romcontrol gives FC's to me. HELP!
A: Very simple answer here: wipe data and cache from superman control application. Also make sure storage permissions are given to the romcontrol.
Q: Romcontrol still FC after cleaning data and cache!
A: Make sure you allow storage permission in main settings.
Q: I try to backup my current RomControl setup, but it won't work?
A: It works. Just make sure to enable storage permission in main samsung applicatoin settings. You will find it in internal sdcard under RomControl folder.
Q: I can't restore SuperMan control settings after a clean base update, why?
A: Backup for SuperMan control only works as long as you use the same version of the app, I mostly change very much things in new releases that's why it won't work there.
Q: SystemUI reboot doesn't work in SuperMan settings app, why?
A: Since Nougat update, you need to install busybox in order to get this button working. Without busybox the button will just do nothing.
Q: I enabled weather on lockscreen but I can't see anything...
A: You probably didn't setup or even installed samsungs weather widget. Without it weather on lockscreen won't work too. So reflash the rom with the widget installed this time and set it up.
How to go back to stock:
Q: I like to go back to stock rom, how is this possible?
A: I can provide you here all steps which are needed to go back to a full stock rom.
0. Make a backup and than wipe all partitions in TWRP
1. Go to Sammobile and choose your country
2. Download the file and the attached Odin on sammobile
3. After downloading, put your phone into download mode
4. Make sure drivers are installed and your pc can detect your phone in odin
5. If the box in odin turns blue, add the AP file to AP tab, BL file to BL tab, CP file to CP tab and CSC_HOME to CSC tab
6. Hit start and wait until it is finished.
7. Reboot and you have a stock rom again
Questions about Encryption:
Q: On TWRP there is an error about /data mount, what to do?
A: Your device is encrypted, follow the steps below to get rid of your encryption.
Q: Help, I never had a code and now after installing the rom my phone asks for a password??
A: Your device is still encrypted, on step 0 of my rom instructions it tells you to be sure you're not. So, what do you need to to in case you are still encrypted.
A: HOW TO DISABLE ENCRYPTION:
1. Boot into TWRP
2. Select Wipe
3. Select format data
4. Then you manually need to type "yes" with the keyboard
5. Confirm the wipe (this will remove the encryption)
6. Reboot your recovery
Q: Is there a way to get rid of encryption which is simpler?
A: Not really, you could also wipe data with stock recovery but this is quite a big hassle so above method works better.
Q: And if I want to use this rom with encryption?
A: Normally we can use the stock kernel to encrypt our device, but since the Android 7.0 Nougat update samsung makes a check kernel sides to block deodexed roms from booting. This means that even the stock kernel is build by me to disable knox and tima. So encryption won't work there and you have to encrypt your device after you set up your phone. After that go to settings, security, encrypt device. It may need some additional steps to work...
Questions about CSC/Signal:
Q: Where has the CSC selection gone?
A: To include all csc files, the rom get way to big, so it got it's own thread now, take a look here: CSC installer
Q: I have a weak cellular signal, what can I do against it?
A: Two things: first, install your providers CSC using CSC installer and flash in TWRP or flashing stock CSC with Odin. Second Thing: You can install the modem from your provider, also find your modem on Sammobile and install it with Odin in CP tab.
Q: I don't have all sHealth features, how come?
A: Not all CSCs include this feature. I recommend to use AUT or DBT as it has the best compatibility!
Q: Can I flash MM CSC on N and vis a verse?
A: No, this is clearly not recommend! You can and will face call fc's!
Questions about Xposed:
Q: Does Xposed work yet on Android N 7.0?
A: No it does not! You will end up in a bootloop when you flash it on android N
Q: I selected xposed but now I don't see an app for it?
A: Maybe there went something wrong with installing the app to /data/app from my installer script. But xposed is actually installed only the app is missing, so head over to the download page of xposed app: Material Xposed Thread
Q: I selected xposed but the app shows not active or something else with xposed is not working.
A: This can have 2 reasons:
1. You have installed latest xposed version without installing magisk, magisk is required for most recent xposed version!
2. You used 86.2 xposed (which does not need magisk) but you did not install supersu. Since 86.2 does not use magisk to be systemless it uses supersu instead!
Questions about Magisk:
Q: How can I pass safetynet?
A: 1. Make sure to fully uninstall SuperSU by chainfire
2. Flash most recent 2.4.3 SuperStock Kernel
3. Flash Magisk V12
4. install latest Magisk Manager from playstore
5. Open Magiks Manager, go to settings
6. Enable MagiskHide, systemless hosts and systemless busybox
7. Reboot the phone and check safetynet!
Q: I got out of date binary issue?
A: Since Magisk V11.1 there is no need for phh root anymore. Everything is handled inside the MagiskManager apk!
Q: Where can I configure the root settings in Magisk?
A: Since Magisk V11.1 Magisk uses MagiskSU, you can find it in latest Magisk Manager V4.1
Questions about Snapchat:
Q: Even when I did not use xposed during my setup in rom I can't login to snapchat anymore!
A: Snapchat got updated and now detects even root access on your phone!
Q: What to do to login to snapchat then?
A: Clean install the rom without root and xposed and login to your snapchat, save the app with titanium backup, flash back xposed and root. For the next update of the rom just restore snapchat backup in TB.
Q: Any other possibility?
A: You could enable MagiskHide and check Snapchat inside it so root will be hidden from Snapchat. You will be able to perfectly login without any issues.
Q: I want to discuss this problem a bit deeper. Should I do so?
A: Do that, but this has nothing to do with this rom, so please go ahead and post your experience here on this Snapchat Thread.
Questions about Kernels:
Q: I want to switch kernel, how?
A: Since we have systemless xposed and systemless supersu, we have patches in ramdisk of boot.img. This means you have to reflash Magisk and supersu (or any other zip that changes some stuff in ramdisk partition) after every change of kernel!
Q: Synapse shows no UCI support!
A: Most comon issue is that no busybox is installed. Download the one from here: Latest busybox and flash it in recovery.
Q: I got random reboots, heeelp!
A: This is most likely from a custom kernel, if you face random reboots please check if you have the latest kernel installed or switch back to the stock kernel included in the rom.
Q: My screen is kind of yellow/orange and the touchscreen doesn't work at all!
A: You have chosen the wrong kernel in aroma selection. Reflash the rom without any wipe selecting the right kernel version.
Questions about Root:
Q: I lost root after installing this rom. What to do?
A: All mods (like supersu, phh's root, xposed and magisk) are stored in ramdisk of kernel boot.img. So if you flash this rom, and after this another kernel, simply reflash your preferred root method and it will work again!
Q: I selected phh root but my phone tells me I am not rooted!!
A: There are two possibilities:
1. You have mixed supersu/phh with magisk.
2. You did not install phhs root app from playstore.
Q: I get a warning about binary out of date. Help!
A: That happens on latest Magisk V11.1. Reason: Root has fully moved into Magisk Manager, no additional app required. Uninstall phh or supersu apps and only use magisk!
Q: I want to use su hide on my phone, how to do so?
A: Both below variants are outdated, I recommend to use Magisk with its build in MagiskHide. Check the thread: Magisk Thread
Link to phh's hidesu: Phh's thread
Link to chainfires suhide: Chainfires thread
Hi,
I have a bit of a silly question. I have enabled the torch to be turned on by the volume button but now want to turn that function off and can't remember where i enabled it from. I have looked everywhere but can't find it. Are you able to point me in the right direction.
Many thanks.

downloadable files verification
Can some one verify that all of the downloadable files on the OP are the correct ones?
Can't seem to get it working, the steps I follow, are as following.
-> flash to stock rom from sammobile
-> OEM unlock
-> flash latest TWRP
-> in TWRP, format data
->install latest BL and CP from OP
-> flash rom -> Clean install
result is a non booting superman rom.. What can I do? I have been trying for DAYS now...

There are several reasons:
1. Encryption is still enabled
2. BL/CP was not successfull
3. You mixed your settings about G930F or G935F model
I noticed a few things in aroma log when it was installing
failure to boot.img extracting ramdisk failure, aborting, is this something that's causing the problem?
I am still not getting it right..

Right at this point I am wondering why snapchat doesn't want to log me in. There's no xposed or snapprefs on my phone, exposed uninstaller was flashed. Does this come familliar? There has to be a workaround without having to use bluestacks right?

Someone said that it even checks for root now
Okay, here's the solution. If you find yourself having trouble logging in in to snapchat on a rooted device without xposed framework installed. Make sure to search for xposed using root explorer, delete all system files manually.. For some reason xposed uninstaller did not completely remove every xposed file in my phone.

is there a chance it could brick the phone?
Hey all,
Just purchased a LG U2 and now trying to make it work in the way i want it.
All informations here seem very old, so I wanted to open an update thread, with all what is possible on th lgu2, while
I found only very outdated informations...:crying:
So far:
First I setup the watch with AW2.0, after that flashed twrp 3.1.1.0 and supersu wear 2.82
I managed to get busybox installed and wanted further add Xposed.
There my problem starts, flashing xposed didn't work out.
So right after that, I switchd to Magisk root, to try work with the modules supplied.
(Steps -> use script UnSU, after that flash boot.img again, than flash MAgisk through twrp)
But after that the same with the modules. I try to install busybox, magisk tell me its no magisk module (i've downloaded the module and pushed it on the sd through adb, while the download button isn't reachable in magisk dialogue menu)
in twrp the module tells me there is no magisk installed.
so how can we go on from here? is there a way to make it all work?
did somebody try to change dpi and download the module directly through magisk? does it work?
also if somebody could help with an updated list of sideload able full android apps?
would need an email that can handle at least two accounts directly on the watch (please not advice outlook, its working from the phone i know)
thanks to all in advance

Ok i did a fresh flash.
i see my fault was to install busybox the first time after installing supersu.
did it this time without and mgisk works so far fine. granting access for total commander no problem.
but now another thing. i installed now busybox from the repos in magisk, he say installation successful, but the module isn't there after reboot?
anyone got the same?

anybody got it done this way?
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.
Hello. I understand that Xposed Framework does not exist for our Galaxy A51. Of course, all due to lack of support TWRP. Actually, the question is: is it possible to install Xposed without Recovery and if so how to do it? Magisk installed by patching boot.img file. Is it possible to do this with Xposed?
Hello, I did root with this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oZD2jkkKX_E&list=LL&index=4&ab_channel=InvisibleDiamond and then install TWRP from this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-a51/how-to/searching-twrp-sm-a515f-t4132751/page7 and then install xposed from Magisk, I only have 3 modules but none download it from xposed, so I wouldn’t know if there is any compatible module, I hope I helped you, I’m not very good at explaining and I have to use translator haha

Is this TWRP working? Can he write the /system section?

The TWRP only installed it, you would have to ask whoever is doing it, honestly do not use it since there is nothing to install for this cell phone

From Magisk, installing riru core and riru EdXposed! You see the edxposed icon in the applications and when you want to enter, it tells you to install the original application or something like that, I don’t remember well

If this works tell me
My phone is rooted with Magisk after installing TWRP recovery and it's working fine except banking apps which do not run due to rooted phone
I don't use functions of rooted phone so much, only in extracting whatsapp keys to backup my whatsapp chats etc
1) Can I uninstall/unroot Magisk anytime and reinstall/root again smoothly whenever the need arises?
2) Does installing/uninstalling root wipe data?
3) I saw following para in https://magiskmanager.com/uninstall-magisk
Your phone will be rebooted automatically. Don’t worry it is normal
That’s it! You have successfully uninstalled Magisk from your phone.
This process will completely delete all the files from your phone, and you don’t need to worry about anything.

What's meaning of "This process will completely delete all the files from your phone" here?
Thanks & regards,
Maria.
AFAIK any tampering of a phone's Stock ROM can get detectected by banking / payment apps - if they want to. IMO the very only method to remove all traces of modifcations applied to phone's Stock ROM is to re-flash phone's Stock what in turn causes the loss of all user data stored on phone.
1) Can I uninstall/unroot Magisk anytime and reinstall/root again smoothly whenever the need arises?
Yes.
2) Does installing/uninstalling root wipe data?
No. As long as you're not locking/unlocking your bootloader, you should be fine. Always a good idea to back up your data and system bacakup since you have TWRP anyway.
3) I saw following para in https://magiskmanager.com/uninstall-magisk
I believe this is reffering to all the MAgisk data only.

My dear, I install and uninstall Magisk all the time. Legitimately speaking, never once did it wipe my data ever. Unless you unlock or relock your bootloader, you will be completely fine.

My advise is, Incase you feel your modules will be erased, just take a screenshot of ur magisk Modules. Screenshot which you can use to later download the exact same modules. Or u can keep magisk module downloaded before hand. Now if magisk is not working, magisk Modules will not show for you.
If magisk is not working, you don't need to uninstall it. Just go to recovery and reflash the magisk.zip or magisk.apk. both will work, bcos that is how it is. Magisk.apk can be directly flashed from recovery menu. Once you reinstall magisk from recovery and it should start working. If after reboot, it is still not working, then just install magisk.apk while you are in android. (Not in recovery, but normal mode) and then open it and see what it says.
If I can help, I will surely. Let me know how it goes. Usually no data is erased. Don't worry. Magisk Modules or magisk, don't effect the system. U can also download magisk uninstaller.zip if you want to completely uninstall magisk.

The best, and only official place to download magisk from is GitHub. At least I think. And well there is one another website I download it from, it's not malware, but I will provide you with the GitHub link itself.
For Magisk v23.0 (One with MagiskHide)(This release also has online module repo, where you can download extra supported modules for your device from online repo of magisk)
https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/v23.0/Magisk-v23.0.apk
For Magisk v25.2 (It does not have MagiskHide, but this is much more better, and there are more effective ways to hide root using Zygisk (new feature in Magisk v24 onwards I believe) (This one does not have Online Repo for Magisk modules, it was also removed in a previous version of Magisk, and you can use Fox's Magisk Modules manager if you want to access and download magisk Modules for any of the future releases for Magisk) If you want the link for Magisk v25.2 then here it is:
https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/v25.2/Magisk-v25.2.apk
Just if u face any difficulty in flashing the apk file in recovery, just rename it to magisk v23/v25.2 (whichever u choose, I kinda recommend using the latest version) and rename it into . Zip. And if u plan on going with v25.2 and want to access the latest online repo and some of their own Magisk modules, then here is the link for the latest version of Fox's Magisk Modules manager:
Release 0.6.1 - Maintenance Update · Fox2Code/FoxMagiskModuleManager
Add Androidacy test-mode fix to non test-mode Update Brazilian translations by @DanGLES3
github.com
I am currently using the latest Magisk v25.2 on my phone, and currently running on the latest version of Fox's Magisk Modules manager as well. And also, using the method for hiding root that I mentioned before, I am completely successful in covering my root, and my safety net is passed. Completely Passed. Play store or any other app I don't want it detecting root, does not detect root. So we all good if you want to flash the latest update of Magisk.

Hi,
I prefer v 23 because it has the hide option builtin.
However after flashing it(i think succesfuli) i do not find any new app in my fhone..

Alright your preference is your own, but maybe hear me out, v23 will soon become outdated, as in some magisk Modules will stop working for it. And the magisk hide, according to the founder of Magisk @topjohnwu, he said that magisk hide is become really ineffective in blocking root, or stopping apps from detecting root. If you want a more powerful version of Magisk hide, update to v25.2 and I will show you how to activate it step by step. It's not built-in, rather it is a new module. So yeah.
Alright and about your question; if you don't find the app in your phone, in your apps drawer, just open file explorer, go to the location where u have kept the magisk.zip file or magisk.apk file. If u have the apk file then just install it once more, from android while in normal mode. If you have the zip file, then just rename to .APK and install it same like above. Then open magisk to continue (mostly after proper install, magisk will reboot your phone once more). Any steps you are stuck in, pls sent me a screenshot, so that I can help.

Hey, I see, okay use magisk uninstaller to completely remove v23 first, and then flash v25.2 afterwards.
From what I researched, it seems u can easily uninstall magisk by renaming magisk v25.2.apk (the file we downloaded) rename it into uninstall.zip
And then reboot to recovery, flash it from recovery to completely uninstall magisk v23. (Make a copy of the file before renaming into uninstall.zip.) that way we can flash v25.2.apk /v25.2.zip directly.
Hope everything works for you.
