Latest Magisk Manager update made my phone lose root.

My ROM is lineageos 14.1 with xposed and Magisk 5.8.3. I received a notice that a new Magisk Manager update was available. I downloaded and installed the update which made me lose root and none of my apps requiring root could acquire root, including Titanium Backup so I could not restore the previous Magisk. I was forced to restore from a nandoid backup to get things working.

So there is a problem with the latest Magisk Manager update. Sorry for the bad news.

Just flash the uninstaller. Then 17.1

---------- Post added at 08:22 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:18 PM ----------

Because you need to run the uninstall zip, then flash 17.1. no direct install this time.

Anyone knows how to remove MAGISK Manager app without loosing MAGISK and it's modules?

After updating to 5.9.1 I get constant FC on my Mi Max 2 with AEX 5.6. And I have no way to downgrade it to 5.8.3...

There is no other problem with MAGISK, so I don't see a need for reinstalling all modules.

Magisk Hide force closes Magisk 17.1. Known issue?
[Magisk] sk8223:
I'm not having any issues with 17.1. Installed on two different devices. Both devices are on LineageOS 15.1. I uninstalled Magisk from TWRP using the latest uninstaller (09/01/2018) and then flashed 17.1. Booted into system and installed the latest Magisk Manager app (after uninstalling the old one from Settings) and no issues so far. No force closes anywhere. I can pass SafetyNet again.

My only issue is some games still see Magisk, but topjohnwu is working on it, thankfully. He's great.
[Magisk] luimx:
Yes, you can.

Just tried and it doesn't happen to me.
[Magisk] PerCompLLC:
I can toggle Magisk Hide on and off in settings, but when I access the Magisk Hide link to individualize I get "Unfortunately, Magisk Manager has stopped". Maybe I should download the 17.1 zip and uninstall/reflash from TWRP...

Edit: Didn't work.

Any solution???

[Magisk] BrotherZero:
Thanks guys, that worked!
[Magisk] FlavioV:
You WILL lose root if you uninstall Magisk Manager. It's the manager after all lol

Try flashing v17.1 in recovery then reboot into system and see if root is working.

I updated from v16.0 to v17.1 this morning and I'm still passing SafetyNet out of the box. Nothing has changed regarding SafetyNet except the native check that is now fixed.

The module you're trying to install is really old, it won't install under Magisk 16+ due to an outdated template. You may want to try MagiskHide Props Config instead. It's a little bit more complicated (you'll have to install a terminal app and launch it manually) but it should work better.
[Magisk] The x man:
First I'd like to thank you for your hard work and dedication (Thanks button pushed)

important note here in update 17.1 while installing via the the manager (I was rooted before) the kernel just destroyed and the device was rebooting to only eRecovery - managed to flash it again using twrp then i downloaded latest stable ZIP to manually update what happened is TWRP couldn't verify the ZIP then I noticed there is no arm64 in it so installed v 16.0 to make it run again with root

info

device : Huawei Y5 2017 (stock rom) - Build number : L22C185B125

arch : arm64

log data from manager installation attached

any more info I'm happy to help I just hate to see my affordable only daily driver get wrecked mentioning others with little knowledge like I was sometime.

[Magisk] baldybill:
When I flashed the uninstaller, it gave an error and said I had to do it through the program.

When I go to do it through the program, I'm offered the choice of "restore images" or "complete uninstall."

Which should I choose? How do I do this? If I'm not to do it through the app, how can I get the uninstaller zip to flash right?

(I'm on a LG V20 - 996US. I also understand that I need to flash the uninstaller and then flash 17.1)
[Magisk] martyfender:
I also use Apps2sd Pro and my second partition (sdext2) is mounting just fine with the latest [MENTION=3306843]kantjer[/MENTION] unofficial build 17.1, which has the same commits as the official 17.1.

When booted into system, here are the files in the Magisk Manager folder. But in twrp all I see is version 16 (not 17). So what do I install in recovery?

Thank you Flavio.

BTW, the file properties says the file is 48yrs old! From 1970!
[Magisk] FlavioV:
You could try. Once again, report to the module thread. The first post is very detailed and has all the info you need. It's the best place to get support for the module as well.

My phone can pass SafetyNet without needing any modules so I have little to add up. But you can get proper help if you ask in the right place.

Architecture Bug in Magisk v17.1

Hello, I found some weird bug on my OnePlus 3. My phone's architecture is arm64 (aarch64), but after I updated to the latest version of Magisk (17.1) my phone will be recognised as armv8l (aarch64 in 32-bit mode).

I tried to completely remove and reinstall Magisk (this time back to Magisk v16.7) but this bug still persists.

Thanks in advance.
[Magisk] jcmm11:
Point of clarification. You won't completely lose root. Any apps that were granted root permissions will continue to be able to access root. You will, however, lose the ability to modify root permissions, so you can't grant root to any new apps (or revoke it from any existing ones).

(Permissions are stored in magisk.db so as long as that file exists the permissions stored in there will be honored)

---------- Post added at 11:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:32 PM ----------

The Magisk Manager folder is no more (you can thank Pokemon Go). Look in your normal downloads folder
[Magisk] FlavioV:
Oops, my bad! :silly:

You only lose the existing root permissions if you clear data for Magisk Manager, which is something I usually do when I have issues with MM. But uninstalling MM should keep root access for apps you enabled previously.

As [MENTION=4487388]jcmm11[/MENTION] said, the MagiskManager folder is deprecated. Plus all the files in that folder are outdated except for the latest APK, which you already have installed.

Delete that folder and download Magisk v17.1 from the official thread, that way you'll be sure to have the latest zip available.

I thought this was the official thread. I went to the first few messages in this thread and they don't indicate where the official thread is.

Where is it please and where exactly do I go to download version 17?

Can I install version 17 in twrp on top of what I now have installed or do I need to uninstall something first? I am new to Magisk and this is quite confusing to me.

This happened to me, too! I wasn't sure at the time if it was the permission that finally made it work, or if it just decided to patch the image that last time. Now I'm sure it was the permission. Yeah, it would be nice if it asked for the permission automatically.

The sdext2 was mounted by Android.

This is why recreate mount script was not successful.

After unmounting it from system settings, remount by Apps2SD was successful. :good:

[Magisk] Johnn78:
Any solution in magisk if it can't install any module due to no abillity to mount magisk_merge.img ?

If it exists immediate solution because the known fix which is to unistal comletely the magisk & reinstal it from the beginning with all modules, is time consuming from the time when this error is freequently. You can't often repeat this process.

[Magisk] ordg7341:
Same here could we get a fix or workaround if anyone has solved this one.
[Magisk] Soumy1234:
I've narrowed it down to one of my modules. I had uninstalled Magisk using the uninstall.zip and reinstalled it. This wiped all my modules. When I checked for safetynet, I was able to pass it.

This maybe a dumb idea, but list your magisk modules. Maybe we have a module or modules in common which may cause the safetynet issue. :rolleyes:

Here is mine:

App Systemizer

Audio Compatibility Patch

Busybox

Debloater

Energized

Google Face Unlock

GPU Turbo Boost

Init.d Injecter

liboemcrypto disabler

mm for recovery

MagiskHide Props Config (Probably not this one since I disabled it and I still failed safetynet)

MidnightCore(This one also most likely not)

Nova and GoogleNow

Sip Fix

Keweon

Viper4Android FX For Magisk v15

xmlpak

Hopefully this helps!
[Magisk] Dangerously:
For the people who fail "Safety Net", I just removed and updated my BussyBox and it is passing in the Magisk check and in RootBeer app.

Always use Magisk to check Safety Net first as it is the only check that the Magisk app developer will respond to.
[Magisk] Strephon Alkhalikoi:
It's no surprise that Busybox would trip SafetyNet since installing Busybox modifies the system. Unless of course there is a version for Magisk. Anyway, Toybox became the standard with Android 6.x if I recall.

[Magisk] martyfender:
If you had followed [MENTION=4470081]topjohnwu[/MENTION] 's changes in his github page, you would have seen that he changed this to the downloads folder to help out Pokemon Go and other apps, since they look for the Magisk Manager folder on internal storage. It is definitely not a glitch, but intended behavior. I would suggest that you keep an eye one his github page for recent changes, all incorporated in the latest, unofficial builds which I update to almost on a daily basis.

So I rooted my Nokia 7 plus by patching boot image as we do not have a stable twrp yet. This morning, when I opened Magisk Manager app, I got a pop up that Magisk v17. 1 is available. I didn't select "direct install" because my device is already running on magisk v16.0 patched boot image and as most of you know when we flash Magisk, it first backs up the present boot image and then patch it and root the device. So, if I had selected "direct install"So, it would have first backed up my present patched boot image and then flashed the new update, which means ai could never restore stock boot image. So I thought of doing it lat r when I am near my PC. Hence, I just cancelled the pop up message. But after a few minutes, it's showing me no root is available. I don't understand how did Magisk got unrooted automatically and if my device still running on the patched boot image and I have to first restore the stock boot image before rooting again. Or if the stock boot image got restored somehow?

[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
Many Magisk modules do not have companion apps. Some you don't need to do any settings for, some use a terminal ui. Check the module readme/thread for more info.

That means MagiskHide is working but your device is, for some reason, not seen as a certified device by Google.

Possible solution:

https://www.didgeridoohan.com/magisk/MagiskHide#hn_Hiding_root_from_apps

Logs?

If the installer detects that you have a boot image that's patched by Magisk, it won't replace the stock backup with that. Your stock backup will be kept intact...

Your device's stock boot image did not get restored, but there was a bug with the Manager v5.9.0 update that can have messed up your Magisk database. Did you install v5.9.0, or did you go straight to v5.9.1? Anyway, a reboot might fix it, or it is possible that patching your stock boot image with Magisk v17.1 and flashing that manually might be necessary.

EDIT: Even after uninstalling and reverting to 16.7 it remains the same behaviour. Still a bootloop and I've changed nothing else. So there has to be a something changed after installing 17.0 which remains changed after uninstalling via the Magisk Uninstaller.
