Thank you.

Although I do not understand anything anymore, I've seen in the google forums that another person who says the same thing has cerberus what rom are you?

When I put 19.1 I get inside the application the toast of permissions of cerberus is all the time and the log of magisk shows a "loop" of request of permissions
[Magisk] geckor:
Unfortunately, I have to withdraw this statement. Magisk 19.1 is working fine, as long as you do not boot into recovery. Obviously, on my system the recovery is blocked after 19.1, even after installation via fastboot. Maybe a complete clean installation with magisk, rom etc. would work, but that is to fussy for me, so I am back to 18.1.

I have seen that this topic is already under discussion; perhaps a solution will be found. Anyway, 18.1 is fine as well for me.
[Magisk] peschie1967:
Now I opend Cerberus, and the same thing happens. Cerberus always wants root permissions. The log of Magisk is full. After canceling the permission it is finished. But now Cerberus doesn´t work fully. So you are right, there seems to be a problem with Magisk and Cerberus.

I deactivated the device administration for Cerberus - I think when I did revoke the root permission for Cerberus this happens automatically. I opened Cerberus the next time, then I did give new permission for device administration - now it seems to work. Only two permissions in the log of Magisk at the beginning - when I give the new permission. Since then, no more entries.

edit:

I use TGP Rom and Moro Kernel.
[Magisk] Pandoriaantje:
since i was having problems with the magisk >=19 on my galaxy s7 edge SM-G935f running stock android 7, TWRP 3.3.0, magisk 18.1, systemwide xposed 89.2 sdk24 (magisk's systemless resulted in a bootloop) and decrypted data partition.

I decied today to try and update to the latest android 8, without data loss, and try the have everything updated, and systemless.

and it worked out fine for me.

I am now running the latest samsung android 8, magisk 19.1 and systemless xposed (magisk module).

No data loss, no encryption, and no bootloops whatsoever.

here are the steps to follow:

disclaimer: i take no responsibility for any data loss, you should always backup your data.

This method is considered a 'dirty' install, don't blame me for instablitily, your milage may vary

required files on your phone (ext. sdcard):

Magisk-v19.1.zip

no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip

required files on pc:

Odin3-v3.13.3.zip

twrp-3.3.0-1-hero2lte.img.tar (check your your phone model for correct TWRP version)

samsung firmware update (i used G935FXXS4ESC1_G935FLUX4ERKF_LUX.zip)

unzip the FW, and boot into 'download mode', home button + power button + vol down

fire up odin, and go to Options tab, and disable auto reboot (important!)

load up the firmware files BL, AP, CP, CSC.

* if you want to preserve your data partiton, make sure to load up HOME_CSC* and NOT CSC*

flash the FW.

force reboot the phone and directly go into download mode again:

hold vol up + vol down + home + power, once the screen turns black, release vol up, but keep holding vol down + home + power.

you should be back into download mode. (whatever you do, make sure you do NOT boot into system, or your data partition wil be encrypted!)

back inside odin, load twrp-3.3.0-1-hero2lte.img.tar under AP, and flash (again, no auto reboot!)

once flashed, it's time to go into TWRP.

once again hold hold vol up + vol down + home + power to force reboot, untill the screen turns black. Then release vol down, but keep holding vol up + home + power to go straig to TWRP. (whatever you do, make sure you do NOT boot into system, or your data partition wil be encrypted!)

From TWRP flash no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0.zip, to disable encryption.

Now you should be able to safely reboot to system, without it auto encrypting the data partition, forcing you to format data from TWRP.

now you can flash magisk 19.1 from TWRP, and install systemless xposed from MM if you want.

all data, settings, etc should be preserved.
[Magisk] JohnWrick:
I did figure it out.

Apparently, Magisk's "safety net" check is not going to happen on my Wifi (5mbps) and my Friend Wifi (10mbps) anymore.

I have to use my mobile data (which cost a lot) for it. 1 question: Is checking "safety net" on a weekly or monthly basis OK?

Because I know it is going to return "true", so...
[Magisk] Ulf3000:
hi everybody, i have a few questions , hopfully you can help me ..

1) can i just flash back "system" with twrp (i made a backup of everything right after installing twrp before even using the phone, its virgin state so to say )?

and will magisk survive that reflash ? or do i have to reinstall magisk afterwards ?

2) can i access data on the sd-card( internal or external) while magisk is booting and loading/executing its modules ? i want to load an apk folder from there and NOT flash it to the magisk image, i think app systemizer can do something like that?

and i want to call a general init script from the sdcard (so i can easily edit it ) ...

3) can i replace framework-res.apk and system-ui.apk?

if possible id like to translate a few gravitybox tweaks hardcoded directly into my system-ui.apk (i need the 5 button layout for the navbar)

4) when a file is systemlessly integrated (like the hosts or maybe build.prop file ) and i use a filemanager to edit it and it will be updated in the magisk image or the system image

5) does hard removing system apps (really uninstall /delete apk) trigger saftynet ?? or any modification to build prop or anything in system really ?

6) does failing safety net trigger any kind of batterydrain from google ply services ??? i dont have a google account yet , just trying how to best modify my phone before inserting my sim card and setting up accounts and finally using it

thanx in advance
[Magisk] drezz2:
So now it works well?

I even uninstalled it and reinstalled it and it kept working the same, but with 18.1 everything was fine
[Magisk] spaha-bih:
I don't know if this is right place, but John Wu good luck with the internship at Apple.
[Magisk] Toronadian:
Thank you.

I thought I was the only one that got this. With a version of Cerberus newer than 3.6.1, I would constantly get toast notifications of Cerberus having permission granted. At the same time, I updated Magisk to 19.1 back when it was only in the beta channels (so a few weeks ago, before it became a stable release). The notifications were constant, like in the logs you could see multiple requests for permission each minute. I haven't figured out if the issue is both Magisk and Cerberus or just one of them. Reverting back to 18.1 for Magisk and Cerberus version 3.6.1 has seemed to fix the issue. I hope the releases after won't give me the same problem...if it helps at all I'm running stock on a Pixel 3.

Edit: With a newer version of Cerberus (3.6.3) but staying on Magisk 18.1, it doesn't appear to ask for permission constantly. This seems to show the issue is with 19.1 itself unfortunately.

There was a suggestion earlier in the thread to just turn notifications off for Cerberus, which yes would then cause the toasts to not show anymore. The thing is though on the Magisk logs you see it constantly asking, which was not the case on 18.1. Not sure what change is causing this.
[Magisk] JohnWrick:
I do understand it. Of course, he is a busy man. That the person I only knew when I use "@", no I wonder whom to point it out. So I did I anyway.
[Magisk] drezz2:
yes the problem is with 19.1 but no idea what causes it, hopefully sooner or later this is solved. Removing the toast only serves to stop you from seeing the message but the application feels slow when you are in it
[Magisk] Hakkinen3K:
What happened with 19.1 version? After a reboot core only mode my modules not working, can't delete modules, can't change to fully working
[Magisk] realista87:
i have a small doubt. if i choose to use a CUSTOM ROM oreo.... is it ok to use the latest magisk v19.1 or should i stick to a previous version like 17.3 for better combatibility?

in other words.... can magisk run well on an "old" custom rom OREO?
[Magisk] Flegmon:
Did you try uninstalling with uninstaller zip and re-installing magisk with the 19.1 zip?
[Magisk] Hakkinen3K:
"failed"

Can't uninstall.
[Magisk] Flegmon:
Try to get the stock boot.img and flash it with twrp. Either extract it from the stock rom/ firmware or get the stock boot img from inside /data/ and flash that.
[Magisk] VampiruX:
Hi All,

For me (Galaxy S8, Android 7), V19.1 doesn't work. Root is lost. Tried with normal way following the notification and installing another time installing the zip file with TWRP. So I restored a version with V18.1 and all is OK.

Am I alone with this trouble ? Did I miss something ?

BR.
[Magisk] AndrzejDwo:
I would re-flash the kernel.
[Magisk] Hakkinen3K:
That was I'm going to do but with magisk 18
[Magisk] AndrzejDwo:
I had this problem on s8, updating from 18.1 to 19.0. Reflashing kernel saved me, after I was able to install 19.0 without issues.
[Magisk] Flegmon:
Re-flashing the kernel would be similar/ the same to flashing boot.img because the kernel is/ is inside the boot.img.

The magisk repo got cleared from modules that didn't update to v19 and from my experience updating from 18 with modules to 19.1 didn't work and I had to freshly install magisk by re-flashing boot.img and removing all my modules before hand.
[Magisk] Ryder.:
Yes, there... But i don't see them there anymore after the update to 19.1, though i installed them. Is that okay? I had no other issues, it works well
[Magisk] AndrzejDwo:
Yes of course, but it's easier to find kernel if you don't have stock boot.img.
[Magisk] siealex:
Magisk 19.1 on Nexus 5X (stock 8.1). Titanium Backup does not detect root. All other apps see root fine. It turned out that apps do not see the Busybox module for Magisk. Not only Titanium, but even a terminal emulator throws "not found". 19.0 works correctly. WTF?

PS, other modules, at least Xposed for Magisk, work correctly.
[Magisk] amscova:
Updated to 19.1 stable after fresh reflash on my Asus 5Z, and cannot install modules. They will download and install and then be removed upon reboot. Zip will flash and module will appear under modules - must reboot device. I reboot and my modules dissappear. Download section appears normal, as if there were no installations, but module section says 'No modules available.' This appears to be no fault of the phone since it is a fresh stock firmware, and previous magisk version worked perfect.I tried everything and this problem persists, at least on latest magisk. However, superuser function works still, root verified.

Will have to downgrade magisk and try again. Just thought this would be nice to get some feedback on.
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
Both your cases sound similar. Please provide the module installation logs and the Magisk log following the reboot to activate the module(s). It's best it you're on the latest Canary build when providing the logs.
[Magisk] Hakkinen3K:
New install and only core mode only.
[Magisk] amscova:
Here's what I could get.
[Magisk] Ryder.:
Yes, i have the Zenfone 5Z too
[Magisk] Hakkinen3K:
Can't re install magisk 18 or 19 my phone is ****ed up. I'm gonna flash my device...again.
[Magisk] AndrzejDwo:
Damn! So 18.1 or 19.2xxxx latest Canary tho.
[Magisk] Hakkinen3K:
Last try ?
[Magisk] Roger Carvalho:
worked perfectly!

Thank you very much, it worked perfectly!

I tested both my bank and the other user's suisse bank and it worked. :victory:
[Magisk] amscova:
Interesting coincidence... :eek:

Now I've got no modules, no SU or Magisk Hide. And, Uninstaller does not work. Frustrating!
[Magisk] xunholyx:
It's no big deal. I was just letting everyone know that giving topjohnwu an @ mention here is futile.

If you have any issues, there is no reason to @ anybody. Just post your problem here, and include logs when it's appropriate to (install logs, crash logs/logcats, etc).

There are many knowledgeable people who frequent this thread. And they are more than happy to help anyone out who needs it, and to give them advice.
[Magisk] guest4711:
Glad we could help...

As you can see in your last screen shot MagiskManager is now hidden as com....(some garbage/random name) and it is displayed as "Manager" instead of "Magisk Msnager" so its hard for an app to notice MagiskManager ist installed and running.
[Magisk] Pandoriaantje:
You might try the same procedure, i did on my s7 edge..

[Magisk] Hakkinen3K:
Flash .45 firmware (PIE) for Xperia XZ Premium G8142, install magisk 18.1 and fine to certain point, take a risk, install 19.1 and working fine and suddenly (again) core mode only, i don't know but for me, magisk is ****ed up, it's impossible to uninstall everything failed.
[Magisk] AndrzejDwo:
You need to provide logs for further investigation of this problem. There must be some incompatibilities in your system/configuration killing each other.

Edit: I think that one of your modules is causing the problem, not Magisk itself. When Magisk forces the core only mode, boot to recovery and uninstall last module that you've installed and reboot to system.
[Magisk] walkwitmeinhel:
Guys anyone here able to magisk emui 9.1?
[Magisk] tfae:
Sorry if there's instructions somewhere about this but I was not able to find:

How can a not-updated-in-time module be resurrected from the grave?

I've already updated it and made a new submission, which was promptly refused because a module with that name already exists (but in the modules graveyard).
[Magisk] mctiew:
Some apps unable to detect root, is there a way to manually add root permission to the app via Magisk Manager ?
[Magisk] jcmm11:
Did you follow the instructions https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html#huawei
[Magisk] Artim_96:
Nope. If they can't properly request it, they probably won't be able to properly use it. Though your installation could be faulty. Had that problem a few times with Greenify, but I don't know what fixed it in the end. Maybe try to reinstall the app or Magisk and try it a few times
[Magisk] BookCase:
19.1 screwed up my phone. I had to wipe everything and start over. Back on 18.1 now and cannot find the modules I want. Only have a few to choose from and I'm afraid to try 19.1 again.

Android 8.0

T-Mobile
[Magisk] VampiruX:
Thank you, but I don't want to reinstall. I'll stay with v18.1 which runs perfectly.

I ran Magisk because of its seamlessly and easy way to use, but it looks like this time is gone...

[Magisk] jonners59:
As per previous.

Samsung Galaxy S7 with Superman rom android v8 with latest Magisk update, googlepay does not work, and just noticed cerberus now stopped working and can not hide magisk, it hangs on install...

Have tried clearing cache, delvik cashe, wiping data in google pay and play and removed all cards. Makes no difference.

Will provide whatever required, just ask, but so far my 3 posts have had no response.
[Magisk] FcukBloat:
dear [MENTION=4470081]topjohnwu[/MENTION] can I ask you a question please. I gave my friend a sony phone with unlocked bl and magisk 18.1 installed, but the app CRCento SmartBank (cedacri.mobile.bank.hb2.crcento) is not working because it sees root is enabled.

magisk hide is enabled, and also specifically for that app, but still it doesn't work.

tried also after hidding/repackaging magisk manager, and wiping bank app cache and data, same problem.

also superuser access is set to disabled, but stil lthe bank app doesn't run :(

also the super access is set to disable... but still the app doesn't launch :(

I couldn't try magisk 19.1 because I don't have the phone in my hands, and I can't ask my friend to try, he is very noob.

unfortuantely I can't remove root from that phone, because being with unlocked BL it wouldn't boot anymore.

any possible fixes you see for this situation maybe?

tia and either way! :o
[Magisk] jenslody:
Is MagiskManager hidden/repackaged (see its settings) ?

If not that might help, probably after clearing the apps cache/data.
[Magisk] patriex:
My banking apps are detecting rooted status even after re flashing everything with v19.1 & magisk hide or with repackaging magisk manager. v19.0 was working in excellent conditions. This update has screwed up everything. Now whatever I do banking apps detect root.

Reflashed kernel

Dirty flashed ROM again

Reflashed magisk in recovery even v19.0 is not working now. Hide or restore magisk manager not helping.

Only remaining thing left to do is to try v18.1

P.S. My only problem here is root getting detected & nothing else. Modules are working fine.

Mobile-> RN5 Pro (whyred)

ROM-> Superior OS based on pie

Kernel-> Derp

Recovery-> Orange fox recovery

Magisk and magisk manager upadated to latest versions:silly:
[Magisk] Kglim:
I'm struggling with the Pip mode which always randomly turns on since after I flash the 19.1 magisk.

So I've also tested with 19.0 and 0410 ianmacd build but both of builds works great with same setups and apps.

Anyone can give a little help for this?
[Magisk] FcukBloat:
thanks we tried also after hidding/repackaging magisk manager, and wiping app cache and data, same problem.

also the super access is set to disable... but still the app doesn't launch :(
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/discussion-google-pay-magisk-discussion-t3906703

And as per your previous questions if the v19.1 release had anything specifically to do with Gpay, just take a look at the changelog and you'll see it isn't mentioned anywhere... So, no.

I tested the app and it doesn't look for the Magisk Manager, and I have no issues hiding root from it on Magisk v19.1. So, updating might be the solution...

Have you tried turning it off and on again? MagiskHide that is. Sometimes that's necessary after an update. Other than that, make sure that MagiskHide is actually working.

[Magisk] kermex:
I think something is wrong in the following configuration: OnePlus 6T, OpenBeta 9, ElementalX Kernel 3.15: today I installed 2 different Magisk modules ([Port] [AML] [Oreo+] DTS:X Ultra & DTS Headphone:X) and Ainur Sauron MK III (03.05.2019) from Magisk Manager app. After every reboot my phone had no network signal on both SIM cards (the signal icons looks like there's no SIM card inserted). Does anybody can help me with this issue, please?
[Magisk] FcukBloat:
cool... thank you! will try asap and let you know, thanks a lot again for your time in testing it in the meantime! ;):o
[Magisk] AndrzejDwo:
You can install AML module and see what happens.
[Magisk] kermex:
AML module!? Sorry, I don't understand. I installed the zip from this post (DTS Headphone:X port). As I wrote in the previous post, after reboot, the phone had no signal on both SIMs.
[Magisk] AndrzejDwo:
Yes, it helps with managing multiple audio modifications.

https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/mod-audio-modification-library-t3745466

Edit: I saw you have at least 2 audio modifications installed, if they are not compatible with each other it might cause many different problems...
[Magisk] kermex:
No, I don't have two: I want one of them (that's why I installed two) but after DTS failed I uninstalled it through Magisk manager then I tried Ainur which caused same issue with SIM cards.

So that Audio Modification Library will help me choose the right mod?!
[Magisk] Kglim:
Okay. So I reported on ianmacd build discussion right after I found this problem and it seems occurred since after 041001 build (I've found this when I flashed 041101 I think.)

Hopefully fix this problem asap.

Always huge thax for you guys effort!
[Magisk] AndrzejDwo:
Ok, sorry then I misunderstood. Tried my best ;)

Edit: AML would help you to use different mods at once. If it helps you to choose the right mod, I have no idea. Check in Zackptg5 thread.
[Magisk] Ryder.:
When i select the restore image option it says "stock backup does not exist" but i have it in root/data... Even with flashify i can't flash stock boot.img because it says partition not found

EDIT. Ok, i don't need an answer because i don't need the restore image option. I can update the firmware from my phone (zenfone 5z). Then i install magisk in the inactive slot. It works. So i can update and keep magisk installed. I don't need the PC for updates anymore. Awesome!
[Magisk] jonners59:
Thank you. Seems it has fixed for some, but not others. Also now affecting Cerberus. I will just have to hang on a tad longer.
[Magisk] Looki75:
Hello,

I have an issue with the latest app/su magisk combo.

Everything was ok with previous stable combo.

The issue is that unless I disable root access journaling and notification (below each root-allowed app) everytime an app is accessing root the magisk app (or su?) gets focussed to and somehow for a fraction of a second is seen by the system as the foreground app.

This has various consequences such as:

* I have some Tasker profiles which react according to the foreground app and they got activated/deactivated every single time any app get root access.

* When I am typing some text in a certain app with Gboard (probably will be the same with any virtuel keyboard/input method) when another app gets root access the app I was typing-in loses focus and Gboard gets closed.

Very annoying.

As I said above, I found a workaround by disabling journaling and notification (below each root-allowed app in magisk app/superuser menu).

Please correct if possible.

Thanks

OnePlus 3T

ROM: TheOne3T based on official Oxygen ROM 5.0.8

[Magisk] microspock:
Thx a lot for identifiying the origin of my problem too, all my root commands in tasker and automagic were in trouble with v19.1, it was driving me crazy. My workaround was to downgrade to v19.0.
[Magisk] Gmx1987:
Mebay it's about devices... By one works second one have problems...
[Magisk] Looki75:
Oh yes it drove me crazy too...

Even worse, at first I didn't realize new magisk version was the issue, so I had a very long and painful troubleshooting process... ?

Now that I am 100% sure of the origin of the issue and that I have a workaround I decided to share these findings with the community... ??

Please check my workaround and let us know if it is working for you too...

Cheers
[Magisk] wozhere:
19.1 is BUGGY with Terrible problems:

In some apps, like Total Commander it keeps flashing message:

Total Commander was granted super user rights

and keeps flashing that message and stops the app and others even from working by disabling text commands (copy paste etc) and other commands within the app. Also some other apps are disabled by this version.

This needs a fast upgrade fix.

Can't really downgrade to previous versions.

Extremely amateurish buggy release.

Need a 19.2 release fix fast.
[Magisk] lekiaM:
LoL, amateurish? Hold your horses mate. If the issues for you persist, doesn't mean they persist for others!

19.1 no probs over here:cowboy:
[Magisk] martyfender:
I have 5 Nextbook Ares 8A tablets with Unofficial and Canary builds on them. Total Commander functions correct on all of them except one. I have the the flashing superuser access continually just like you, only on that, virtually identical tablet. It continues for some time after the app is killed from the recents. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app, also.

In my case I am considering either factory resetting or reflashing the rom.

One difference this device has is Apps2SD with my external SD split to have a second, ext partition to move apps too. I always have the latest TC beta on my devices. I have not tried the latest stable version on that device to see if it makes a difference.

I would suggest that you post logs otherwise no one can really help otherwise.
