If the game uses SafetyNet, you're good to go. If it doesn't, but looks for root, add it to the Hide list.

Not common issues, no.

1 - Magisk removes the force encryption by default. How did you install (give lot's of details)?

2 - Don't think I've heard about that one before. Details, please (lot's of 'em)...
[Magisk] rignfool:
I think the two issues are related...

Are you able to decrypt data on your phone... Meaning... Can you use it after boot?

What SU solution are you using...
[Magisk] SvenSSSvensson:
Hey Guys!

I just flashed this a magisk module called iYTBP (YouTube with background play)

with magisk manager, and now I'm stuck at the bootscreen. Any suggestions how to fix this?

I have a rooted/S-OFF HTC 10 running latest Maximus HD.

Thanks!
[Magisk] Hubi97:
Try this https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/collection-magisk-modules-v2-t3575758/post72542167

Or just uninstall magisk by flashing the magisk uninstaller. Btw never had this problem with iYTBP
[Magisk] SvenSSSvensson:
Thanks! However after removing the module with adb shell it still won't boot.

Well, I saw some weird problems in Magisk with this.

For example now when I removed it with adb shell the module name was empty.

Saw the same thing in Magisk when I flashed the module the first time, all info was gone after reboot.

The first time I flashed it (hadn't remved original YouTube) it booted fine, but it was still the original YT.

So I removed the YouTube app and flashed it again, and then I dind't wanna boot.

I'll try to uninstall Magisk completely.

Edit: Uninstalled magisk, stuck in boot loop.

Reinstalled Magisk, stuck on boot animation.

I guess my rom is broken somehow.

Will probably have to reinstall that as well.
[Magisk] MultiKoopa:
Just tried this with the June security patch. It did not work for me... the OTA failed to flash (still on May security patch), and SuperSU is installed instead of MagiskSU (I'm guessing this is because of EverRoot... but TWRP doesn't seem to persist through reboots unless you're already rooted...?)

Does Magisk Hide screw up OTA updates, perhaps?

EDIT: yeah, I guess EverRoot was pretty stupid of me. But unfortunately, I won't be able to try again until next month's security patch. I'm guessing it WAS Magisk Hide that created the problem?
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
I doubt Magisk Hide was the issue... If you had EverRoot it'd install SuperSU, yes, so I'd leave that disabled.

When I did that test, I was using a ROM zip in the flash cue, merely to test the whole flashing Magisk together with everything else. I've never used Flashfire for an OTA, but I'm guessing you'd have to add a stock boot image (and possibly a stock recovery) to the top of the cue. OTAs usually expect an untouched system...
[Magisk] MultiKoopa:
FlashFire has worked beautifully in the past for OTAs though.

Magisk seems to be the only thing different this time...

Guess I'll try again next month. And make a backup of the OTA zip file. Speaking of which, anybody happen to know where that's stored on the Nexus 6P nowadays? The location seems to change constantly, so I can't really Google it...
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
Pure speculation on my part, but it could be that with SuperSU Flashfire can find the boot image backup and use that. With MagiskSU you might have to do that yourself... Of course, pure speculation.

You might also have done something to your system since the last time. Just mounting /system rw once might cause a future OTA to fail, as an example.
[Magisk] MultiKoopa:
I don't see how I could have done that without realizing it :P

I don't generally do that.
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
Mounting /system rw was just an example. Any tiny modification to /system, /oem or /vendor (whatever is applicable to your device) could also be a culprit. Any app with the proper permissions could easily do this without you even realising.
[Magisk] brian 11:
I think magisk stores your original boot in the system directory with no folder named recovery-from-boot.bak
[Magisk] MultiKoopa:
Not without root access. Only adaway does anything, and it's never blocked OTAs before.
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
Keeping it in /system would kind of defeat the purpose of systemlessness... :laugh:I believe it's kept in /data.

Root access is part of those proper permissions I was talking about, yes. :D

It was just an example and speculation as to why an OTA might fail. YMMV.
[Magisk] Xennet:
[MENTION=4470081]topjohnwu[/MENTION]

I have an app which even after using magisk hide detects root.

Safety net passes in magisk

Even snapchat and other apps installs

But if magisk manager is uninstalled it works even if the phone is rooted

That means it detects whether the magisk manager app is installed or not ...

But each time I have to uninstall magisk manager to use the app and then reinstall magisk manager after that...

Nice to find out...

So it would be nice to see if you can employ some trick to hide the magisk manager app itself from being detected so as to run these sort of tricky apps..

Or an option in magisk manager to hide root applications like magisk manager, substratum, viper4android, titanium backup, adaway etc so that newer applications that just uses this method to detect the presence of rooted applications be fooled!!!

But if you can HIDE ROOT ITSELF hiding apps wouldn't be that difficult....
[Magisk] brian 11:
I think it would also detect a custom recovery and the wrong boot.img even if you uninstalled the manager. If you want an ota update you have to flash your stock boot.img and recovery.img back or it will download the update but not install it.
[Magisk] Xennet:
Mate it works just by uninstalling magisk manager that's my point....
[Magisk] brian 11:
Well I guess I went to more trouble then I had to too get nougat but at least I was able to use the twrp recovery.img and I've got root again.
[Magisk] adrman:
I updated my Angler with Magisk via FlashFire for the first time last night, but used the full factory image instead. DL the full factory image from Google then set the following in FlashFire.

1. Flash Firmware package - from the full factory image you downloaded select system, boot, vendor and recovery if desired

2. Backup system, boot, vendor and recovery if desired

3. Flash zip or ota - if you want, add a custom kernel at this point. For me it was ElX 4.09

4. Flash zip or ota - Magisk-v12.0.zip

5. Make sure "inject SuperSU is disabled"

Now flash and enjoy. Keep in mind the above will not update your bootloader or modem if there had been a change. If there was a change (there wasn't for June), you'll want to update those via fastboot.

No...

That's the script that without the .bak extension that would rewrite stock recovery on boot...

---------- Post added at 07:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:21 AM ----------

And so the cat and mouse game continues...

He hides the manager... The app in question reverse engineers the manager and starts to look for the unhide script... Open source... Remember?

He hides this... They look for that...

Gotta remember... We are dealing with money... And fraud... And who's liable... It's no laughing matter when you $50,000 limit Visa card get drained... By not you
[Magisk] tag68:
But having root is not the danger. Checking the wrong things is. Security must be coming from secure algorithms (which may use insecure paths and still are trustworthy!) and password mechanisms, not from having or not having root.
[Magisk] shadavis08:
Ok I just bought this lgv20 and its rooted with magisk and I want to go back to stock because the second screen is useless with this RR os on it. Can anyone give me some guidance please. I didn't realize it had been rooted until I bought it.

I just really don't know anything about magisk or how to use it.

[Magisk] teddy0209:
That should be easy, go to your devices thread... If the v20 works like previous devices, what you need would be the kdz stock rom...
[Magisk] Rudolpht:
I'm using SuperSU and went back to it.

The data partition reencrypted. It is still usable but if you look at /data in the internal SD in SolidExplorer with root privledges (for example), it is garbled.

My external card is Default location. When I restored back to my SuperSU configuration, /data everything worked fine but the partition is encrypted. It still works after boot and can uninstall and reinstall, but my preference was unencrypted for flexibility
[Magisk] Watanabe_You:
v12 works perfectly on my Note 3, but gives high CPU usage on the Xperia C3. Looks like an issue ticket was already made though, I hope the problem can be detected.
[Magisk] Mao04:
Not sure I understand your situation... But if it is what I think your saying, you can download the ota (from Google developers site) and sideload it at anytime. That way you can install multiple times and troubleshoot. Also, you don't have to "find"where the ota downloaded to your phone.

And yes, if you don't reboot into TWRP (so it can install a patch to persist) before booting into system for the first time after flashing an ota or factory image, then Android will remove TWRP. Just reboot into TWRP before allowing Android to boot.

Following these steps will allow you to repeat the process as many times as you need to iron out the kinks. You don't need to wait until next month to try again.
[Magisk] DodoGTA:
Disable Magisk Hide to fix high CPU usage issue
[Magisk] Watanabe_You:
Isn't that a temporary fix? How will I hide root?
[Magisk] DodoGTA:
Does SafetyNet pass?
[Magisk] Watanabe_You:
It doesn't
[Magisk] DodoGTA:
Then your kernel doesn't support Magisk Hide
[Magisk] Watanabe_You:
I have the stock kernel source so I can recompile it. Is there any commits to pull from Magisk?

[Magisk] ahmedraza:
some apps had detected root i dont know how they detect even enabled magisk hide and busybox with disabled usb debugging still ( 8 ball pool detect root ) how they detect it really so worried about it ( i am using SAC23 ROM WITH MOROKERNEL 1.7.5) if i unroot magisk with magisk uninstaller does my rom stable or just it takes me to bootloop because i dont want to loose my some apps and data thats why i want to only unroot this rom

kindly reply thanks for your good work we love you magisk
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
I just tried 8 ball pool on my OnePlus 3T, Magisk v12, MagiskSU. Works just fine... No root detected.

Upload a Magisk log (as an attached file!) and we'll see if there's anything in there hinting as to what's wrong.
[Magisk] ahmedraza:
i think when u just clear data and cache of 8 ball pool and re open it it detects and everytime when i clear data and cache of 8 ball pool it detects else everything is working like snapchat and other apps

how to send log file please tell me so i will upload here
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
In the Magisk Manager - Log - Magisk.
[Magisk] ahmedraza:
Dear here is my log file thanks
[Magisk] ahmedraza:
dear here is my log file thanks
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
Wow... You can reduce the number of apps/processes you've added to the Hide list. You should only add the bare minimum... For SafteyNet you don't need to do anything, that's already taken care of by default. Other than that, only add apps that you know explicitly check for root...

FYI, I can play 8 Ball Pool (after clearing data and cache as well) without even having Magisk Hide activated, so I doubt that's the issue. What's the error message (if any) you get from the game and when does it appear?
[Magisk] ahmedraza:
sir this message i got from 8 ball pool when i am playing with clear cache and data

( we have detected that you are using third-party modifications of the game or are transfering coins between accounts. this is against our terms & conditions please not that if this behaviour persists, your coins will be removed immediately and your winning reset)

i did not transfer coins so this might be third party modifications but i dont know

also please tell me regarding my magisk log file everything is ok right now i just remove more apps from my magisk hide menu only snapchat basketball and 8 ball pool i just had ticked in magisk hide menu now ok
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
I very much doubt this has anything to do with Magisk Hide not functioning... Because it seems like it does on your device.

My best guess is that you have some app on your device that can be used for manipulating other apps in ways to gain access to paid features without paying. I'm not implying that's what you're doing, but the mere presence of an app like that can cause this kind of message. If you're using such an app, don't. Developers do NOT like that kind of stuff and you're on a developers forum.

Of course, I may be wrong and there might be some other reason for your problem... But I'm pretty sure it's not a Magisk issue. Good luck.
[Magisk] ahmedraza:
yes dear i know that but dear i just add only free apps to use from play store this is i am doing only for 8 ball pool lol else i am thinking to buy ipad for 8 ball pool :D anyway i am really thanking for your lovely works keep it up love u magisk

[Magisk] aillez:
for Airwatch compromised even you though you already hide Magisk for Airwatch agent and setting. It's might cause by you installed/your ROM include BusyBox

This happens to me after I enroll successfully with No compromise status and then I installed BusyBox because the app I use needed it.

So here is solution.

1. Un-Enroll

2. Add Airwatch agent, Setting to Magisk hide

3. Remove any BusyBox installation or Install BusyBox using osm0sis's flashable BusyBox installer. Here

4. Test with RootBeer sample. Here (Also hide this application) you should see all green except SELinux flag (which might be red but not effect with Airwatch) and said Not Rooted.

5. Enroll

6. Check compromise status again.

7. Benefits.

All credit goes to [MENTION=4470081]topjohnwu[/MENTION] for create magisk and [MENTION=4544860]osm0sis[/MENTION] for create very useful installer.

Hopes this help.

Tried to restore apps with Titanuim and it wouldnt let me.

I think i got it on the manual setting,but then you have to press install and as on Huawei no to delete apk.

Anyway around this?
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
Does it have anything to do with this, maybe?
[Magisk] redultra82:
Unfortunately not :(

Tried magisk,titanum or busybox pro

Then both app processing modes, the next one you have to press install etc
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
Then I'm not sure what your problem actually is. I don't quite understand you, but maybe someone else will... Could you describe the problem in more detail?
[Magisk] redultra82:
When I flashed a rom last night, as usual I went into titanium to restore apps.

Clicked on restore missing apps

1st one comes up to press install and then it usually stars installing the rest automatically

It didn’t, tried all the different busybox and app restore settings in titanium, made sure my SD card was writable, magisk was giving me root as Adaway was able to do its thing

Installed Supersu, reinstalled all apps as normal.

Reinstalled magisk as I prefer it and last week supersu was giving me optimising apps on every boot no matter what I done
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
Hm... TiBu have had and still have some issues with MagiskSU. I honestly can't say what that's about tough, since I've never experienced any of those issues... :silly: I'll do some testing on my backup device later and see if I can replicate your problem.
[Magisk] redultra82:
Cool, thanks

Worse case I install Supersu, restore apps and then go back to Magisk

I'm a complete newbie to magisk. Is there a way to download and swap out roms directly from my phone without a computer? Thanks for your help CryonicCore using magisk I mean.
[Magisk] CryonicCore:
If your talking about dual booting... I'm not that familiar with that so I don't know if it's possible or not. However, if you are talking about doing a clean install then yes you can download a Rom that is tailored for your phone and flash it using your custom recovery.
[Magisk] shadavis08:
What I mean is can I use magisk to download a rom and install it directly to my phone without a computer using magisk? How would I go about doing that? Just boot into recovery fond the rom and install? I could do this with CWM when I was running Cynogenmod a few years back. But it's been so long since I did any rom swapping I'm lost again lol
[Magisk] CryonicCore:
Yup just download. Boot into recovery, find Rom then flash using recovery. Just make sure you download a Rom that's for your device or you could brick your device.

[Magisk] Nimueh:
I flashed a new rom to try out this morning (PA), flashed gapps + Magisk and then installed the Magisk Manager + Titanium Backup. Then I restored 128 apps in 1 go without any issues. It maybe felt a bit slower than usual, but that might've been my imagination.

I didn't even try any busybox settings, I simply selected the backup folder on my SD card and that's it. Only thing I did differently from you was that I went to "restore all apps" and then deselected the few I didn't want. Then tapped the green arrow and TiBu started restoring.

But all good here :cool: :)
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
Enable systemless hosts, install Unified Hosts Adblock in the Manager Downloads, reboot and follow the instructions for the module (in the support thread or the modules readme).

Best solution IMHO...

[Magisk] dimm0k:
just curious if anyone here was able to get Magisk installed on an LGV20 US996 variant running the US99610f stock ROM? tried it last night and went through a nightmare trying to get this phone back to a working condition. I'm able to get Magisk 11.6 on my LGV20 H918 no problems, but this US996 device hasn't been so cooperative. what I've done so far was unlock the bootloader using DirtyElf, which should have rooted and installed TWRP and so the only remaining step is to flash Magisk in TWRP, reboot, profit correct?
[Magisk] redultra82:
Sadly still a no.

Uninstall and reinstall magisk and titanium (deleted titanium settings)

Don't install any busy box

Tried both restore methods in titanium
