It's absolutely correct, normally you can simply dirty flash over old installations. Magisk can handle old installations very good (in almost all cases), and if you want to uninstall Magisk the latest uninstaller is recommended, but be aware, that the uninstaller also removes all modules and settings and the MagiskManager.
[Magisk] Larswad2:
Thanks, then I'm wrong with that assumption.

But that raises me a little question, isn't the magisk manager capable of doing the whole flash itself, and if so, why didn't it when the new apk that I installed would come up? Or is that again a wrong assumption (that the manager doesn't do that at all, that it can only download new versions of the zip, and if needed do the patch).

And a final clarification I would want to confirm: why no root after the new manager is because the new version is not backward compatible with earlier magisk enabled boots/kernels, the manager and patched boot/kernel go hand in hand and both must always be upgraded?
[Magisk] jenslody:
Normally old root will stay. Did you reboot after the installation ?

It looks like something went wrong in the update process.

If Magisk does not come back after a reboot a complete uninstall might be a good idea, but I would try it directly before.

And MagiskManager can only patch directly, if root is active, otherwise it can not access the boot-partition of your device.
[Magisk] Larswad2:
OK. Then I realize that something actually DID go sideways, because root was just fine before. Maybe I missed the reboot. The 17.1 came out so quickly after the 17.0 that i upgraded immediately. But I never saw a flash procedure at any time. Anyhow, as I have rebooted since then, the manager has a green bullet on the 17.1 but says magisk isn't installed. I guess it just refers to that the manager version is up to date but the magisk boot isn't. So I'm thinking just doing the dirty flash of the latest zip in twrp or use the patched boot that I have. Not sure really what to lean on due to the new. Info that magisk actually can dirty flash.
[Magisk] jenslody:
The first green bullet means, that the newest version on your update-channel is 17.1, the second (in your case) red bullet means root is not detected.
[Magisk] Larswad2:
OK, like I suspected. Great that you clear out all details. I am usually understanding things the right way, but when it comes to flashing my phone I ask two or three times extra because I am just terribly scared of a hard brick. It's giving me the chills all over. And right now I am on vacation and the twrp is the only thing here that is the last resort in everything. So I am gonna wait until I get home and save the nandroid to my server as I always do before anything else. But I am going to do a flash of my prepared boot after that.

To be honest, I have just felt too my work after having rooted because oxygen is the best things I've seen on Android phones after all these years. Not to say anything against magisk. These developers are just godlike in what they do. But I haven't found one app or even a module that would make. It better. So I'm in a bit of regret. Still, funny enough I won't go back from root. It's a disease I guess.?.

Thanks for all help guys, you actually cleared out a lot of things that made me just unsure and very afraid. Even if I maybe don't have to be THAT scared.

Cheers!

Hi, for those who were having MagiskHide or Safetynet issue, you could try to enable the Magisk Core Mode and reboot.

If the safetynet or magiskhide starting to work again, it could be your module.

Disable the Magisk Core Mode and try to disable one of your Magisk Module.

As for me, the culprit is the busybox module by osmosis which is weird, as in Magisk 16.0 it was working fine with the busybox module.

So, either its magisk 17.1 or Busybox Module.

*I use 2 module; busybox and cloudflare ipv4 dns module.

Reference: https://www.didgeridoohan.com/magisk/MagiskHideMore

***EDIT:

You could try reinstall the Module back.

As for me, after i disable Busybox Module, safetynet working fine.

So, i tried reinstall the Busybox Module and safetynet still passed. :)

Galaxy Tab S4

I was reading that my Galaxy Tab S4 can be rooted with Magisk v16.7. I have never used this have always done the supersu route. Could someone please point me to a guide on how to use this so I can root my Tablet? I dont want a $650 paperweight :)

Thanks in advance
[Magisk] yochananmarqos:
Check your device forum, I'm sure someone has posted a guide.
[Magisk] Tecalote:
What we have observed in P9 unofficial Oreo Thread is following:

Some Firmwares don't have xbin folder in system.

And if we flashed Busybox without the folder xbin, we got a Bootloop, because of a permission problem.

This has been solved months ago by [MENTION=1143630]osmosis[/MENTION] and later by [MENTION=5423715]YashdSaraf[/MENTION] with looking for: if xbin folder does exist

If exist, then osmosis using the path:

/dev/tmp/magisk_merge/busybox-ndk/system/xbin

If /system/xbin doesn't exist, using the path:

/dev/tmp/magisk_merge/busybox-ndk/system/bin

This practice wasn't a problem for safetynet, but since short time it seems to be - because if you create manually the xbin folder in system (if it doesn't exist), make a Reboot after and you flash then the Busybox as Magisk Module, it will be in ../system/xbin - and you will not have problem with safetynet.

Only if Busybox uses .../system/bin - I faced a problem with safetynet.

So the culprit isn't the Busybox, but on which places the "Android Root checking runtime" is looking for Root..

That's what I have observed.

You can root via twrp if available, or via fastboot/odin... Just read and make sure you know how to restore... There's almost zero chance you'll hard brick a device with an unlock bootloader by rooting systemlessly...

You need, I believe, an updated Safety Net checking app:

SafetyNet 'attest", for example:

Or use the updated one built into Magisk Manager Version: v5.9.1

[Magisk] casouzaj:
Try to pinpoint any subprocess(es) from your banking app which still detect that your phone is rooted, by starting either a terminal emulator app on your phone, or through an adb shell command in a command prompt window on your PC, and enter:

su

logcat | grep banking_app_name

Replace banking_app_name by your actual banking app name, or part of it, or its process name.

By analysing the logcat results, try to find out which subprocess(es) escape(s) Magisk hide's attention, and for each one of them, enter:

magiskhide --add subprocess_name

Hope it works for you.

As for me, after i disable Busybox Module, safetynet and MagiskHide working fine.

But based on your replied, I tried to reinstall the Busybox Module to see whether it will fail again or not, and looks like safetynet and MagiskHide working perfectly fine just for a while. After 1 or 2 days, it fail again.

Thanks for the info btw.. :)

Looks like the temporary fix to my issue is disable the busybox module, until there is another way to fix it.

- in system, the folder: xbin = /system/xbin

(because this folder didn't exist)

I rebooted the phone.

Flashed Busybox by osmosis - and no problem with safetynet at all :)

Time Zone bug report of V16 and V17

I would like just to report a bug, I've noticed present in V16 and V17 of Magisk. Device I've used was MTK based Alldo Cube T10 plus with Android 6.0 Bulid T10_PLUS_V1.0_20180329 with kernel 3.18.19 zhengqf@mid-svr3 #1 Mar 29 16:35:18 CST2018 The bug is that Time Zone setting after power down or reboot of the device always reverts to China Standard Time GMT+8 absolutely regardless either it was set to manual or to automatic setting!

This behavior appears after installation of Magisk and disappears after uninstall. It was tested several times and I'm absolutely sure of it.

I'm quite novice here, so not familiar with most of rules and procedures how to arrange bug report to developer. Please, do not blame me if I did something wrong and/or forward this report to developer as it required.

On my s7 edge, I only had app systemizer as a module. I was on repackaged magisk 16.7, then updated it to 17.1. Afterwards - any app I uninstall reverts (i.e., is not uninstalled) when I reboot, and I can't update apps from playstore. I only managed to make it work when I uninstalled magisk and reverted to 16.7.

Magisk 17.1 installed on a Pixel 2 XL running Android Pie (build PPR2.180905.005). Upon reboot, my phone passes SafetyNet, but when trying to enable Google Pay it fails with a message regarding rooted device; after this, device fails SafetyNet.

Update: installed Safety Patch straight from Magisk Manager and GPay is now working - I'm assuming the issue was my unlocked bootloader being detected by GMS. Really, really weird... I'm willing to test further and collect needed logs if anyone's interested in looking into this issue.

Update 2: SafetyNet failing again, after adding a card previously configured on my account.

Update 3: Managed to add 2 different cards to GPay. SN still fails eventually, and if I try to deactivate and reactivate Magisk Hide to try and get it to work, phone reboots on its own.

3.1: Upon this self reboot, I see an endless "Phone is starting" message on the screen, which forces me to manually reboot the phone. After doing so, I'm back to "SN working upon reboot" state.

Magisk Hide.....Works but i cant select all apps. My banks app doesnt just look through itself for root, it checks via the phone app and some other means which i am unsure of. So i usually hide root via magisk hide for every app installed, except the apps that i know i need root for, terminal emulator es file explorere etc. But on my note 9 on two different roms everytime i start ticking the hide boxes down the list after two or three the phone restarts and ends up in a bootloop. Whats the crack, is it a samsung security bug trying to prevent system changes or what.

Why would you hide every app installed? You are only asking for trouble if you do that. You should only hide apps that detect root and won't run because of that detection.
[Magisk] rgray99c:
To be fair the reason is stated in the OP, My banking app itself isnt just looking for root, it looks for it through other means aswell. I know of one way and that is via phone app, but ive hidden that and it still detects root.

I have managed to sort this by manually editing the hidelist via text editor using the output from pm list packages.

Think there may be a samsung bug that prevents magisk hide from working properly when closing each app to reopen it. ill message topjohnwu and allow him to have a look.
