Update inside magisk from 20 to 20.1 direct install causes me rootloss after reboot. Tried to rolling back to 20, rootloss. Don't know what happens. :confused:

Had to restore backup.

OOS v909, OnePlus 5.
[Magisk] sela-:
I was thinking a minor update will not bootloop my phone. Unfortunately i was pretty confident that I deleted any ROM and the uninstaller. I have my fault, I give you that.

Btw just a question, is only John working on the updates or there are like 2 team working simultaneously?
[Magisk] zgfg:
Unfortunately I see now that the problem was already in Canary MM 7.4.0 (252), Magisk 20.1 (20004)

- Huawei P9, Oreo/EMUI 8

Root works but only for those apps that were previously granted the right and listed in SuperUser list.

To test, I deleted Reboot from Superuser list and now when I open Reboot app and choose to reboot, no popup is coming to ask me to grant root, even upon uninstalling and reinstalling Reboot, wiping Cache, Dalwik cache

Unfortunately, from the reports above, it is not isolated problem only to me, but something fundamental seems to be broken again in the new updates

Edit: Updated to today's Canary MM 7.4.1 (254), and Magisk 20.2 (21001), still the same bug
[Magisk] lepicane1:
For info.

Manager 7.4.0 still found by Bitdefender as 'Riskware.Rooter.BH'.

IGNORE: Had to restore and hide again for it not to be detected by Bitdefender....also changed name from Manager
[Magisk] sela-:
The definition of tested and stable version, indeed.
[Magisk] inkaine:
Can report the same for OP6T. It even left my system unbootable and reverted to the inactive slot. So, no root, one system version down. On OOS OB17 for me.
[Magisk] rogers11:

[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
[MENTION=6673539]Syoenth[/MENTION] [MENTION=7786725]zgfg[/MENTION] and anyone else not getting root prompts.

That's likely caused by a broadcast issue, and connected to the stub app. Did you guys follow the update instructions?

[Magisk] Wolfcity:
20.1 and MM 7.4.0 working flawlessly on a Moto G 2014 (titan) running AEX 4.6 (android 7.1.2) after unhiding MM and a direct install.

Root access granted for new root apps, when manager is hidden all RootbeerFresh tests are successful incl. UDS. For me it's the first build that doesn't need a script

#!/system/bin/sh
sleep 120
/sbin/magiskhide --disable
sleep 1
/sbin/magiskhide --enable

in data/adb/ post-fs-data.d to toggle magisk hide on/off after a reboot.

I followed these steps but have the problem of Magisk Hide failing. I tried to uninstall and re-install too, failed to install. I downloaded Magisk Manager directly from the git releases when trying this.

Essential PH-1, Android 10
[Magisk] samep:
Just an observation. Restore hidden MM actually updated MM for me.

I'm waiting to update until I'm near a computer but thought I'd unhide MM to be sure I didn't get ahead of myself later.

I've already updated MM in the process of trying to be careful. That's on me for not knowing but looks to be ok anyway.

Thanks for posting this.
[Magisk] zgfg:
Do you know if the problem with failing to Hide/Repackage MM has been fixed

Reported it first time this summer (with logs), and last time with v20.1 I finally made it to Hide but following the guide it was still failing to install app-patched.apk and I had to do things from that step manually (it was also reported here)

If Hiding not fixed, then it's kind of risky now to unhide because of this new issue now (root grant request not popping up)

---

It would be good to have a possibility to manually add an app to the Superuser list

Also, one more suggestion, upon patching a boot/ramdisk img, MM insists to reboot - rebooting (to System) is of not much use, one must reboot to TWRP or Fastboot to flash the patched img, - ie, insisting to reboot is needed (only) upon Direct install
[Magisk] shoey63:
This should fix a lot of the hiding problems.

-unhide Manager to get 7.40

-update with direct install

-Re-hide with new name
[Magisk] BHUSHAN7988:
Why does it show (3) for latest
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
I'm not aware of any current issues with hiding/repackaging the Manager. There was some issues earlier this year, but those have been fixed as far as I know.

If you still have issues that can't be fixed by uninstalling the Manager and installing it again, opening a Github issue is the right way to go. [MENTION=4470081]topjohnwu[/MENTION] does not browse the forum for bug reports (to many false positives).

Same here, open a Github issue with a feature request. Best way to get [MENTION=4470081]topjohnwu[/MENTION]'s or [MENTION=9815783]diareuse[/MENTION]'s attention.
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
That's the version number for the stub. It'll only get installed when repackaging if your system supports it (Android 9+ with working broadcasts).
[Magisk] ippoglosso:
I tried to completely uninstall and reinstall the new version and it worked, updating it gave me the problem

That, I believe, has something to do with the new stub installers?
[Magisk] Ch3vr0n:
Ugh using latest magisk and manager, USB debugging disabled, rehid bank app after hiding manager it STILL detects device is rooted and won't let me use fingerprint to login (fully functional otherwise). No clue how to proceed from here, only variable I can think of now is unlocked BL and I'm not going to relock that.
[Magisk] SenseSei:
I have this on Oreo.

Latest: 7.4.0 (253) (3)

Also are these animations new? They seem kinda laggy for me and an option to disable them would be nice. I have animations set to 0 in dev options.

If they aren't new then something is messed up on my device.
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
The "Latest:" part of the Manager main window shows what versions are generally available, and there's no check for compatibility there. What you need to look at is the "Installed:" part, where you won't be seeing any (3) on your setup.

If something is wrong or you have a feature request, the best place for that would be to open a GitHub issue. Just make sure that you're detailed in your description and that you provide logs for any problems and bugs that you're reporting about.
[Magisk] ktmom:
After searching for existing, similar issues of course [emoji6]
[Magisk] zgfg:
Those have never been fixed for me, and still is not

So for the matter of fact:

- Following your advice to unhide first, I went for, but unhiding failed, staying with downloading icon forever

- After waiting 10 minutes I had to manually uninstal mmanager (my hiden name) and then installed MM manually

- Now popup for granting root works but hiding/repackaging, as usual, fails again
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
In that case you need to open a proper GitHub issue with a logcat showing everything described here.
[Magisk] zgfg:
Anyway, I will not go reporting to GitHub (reporting here, even with logs, had no value).

For new Huawei phones unlocking BL now costs a fortune and requires to mess up with TestPoints.

Plus, because of EROFS, Magisk must be patched to Recovery - all together making rooting less attractive.

I'm now living in peace with my new Huawei without Magisk - and, after many years being addicted to root (first SuperSU, later Magisk), quite fine (DNS66 instead of SdAway and debloating by simple adb commands, all other benefits of root were never a matter of live or death).

This old Huawei P9 with Oreo and Magisk is becoming a burden to maintain (like updating Magisk), it will soon go to rest to the box and drawer

It was a pleasure to fly with you and Magisk, specially during the time of versions 17.6 till 19.5 or so (I think, 19.4 was my favorite)

Enjoy as long as you can, unfortunately Google, banks, Netflix, etc are putting a grasp, we shall see how things will evolve over time
[Magisk] Didgeridoohan:
Too bad, but of course your choice. [MENTION=4470081]topjohnwu[/MENTION] doesn't browse XDA for bug reports (too many false positives), so GitHub is the proper place for them...

Updating the Magisk Manager to version 7.4.0 (253) no longer works in my device running Android Lollipop. A parsing error pops up.

Could you guys confirm that now it started using better apis and no longer support Android Lollipop devices? Or is that some other issues? This error pops up when I click update button in the app.
[Magisk] martyfender:
You have Magisk Manager hidden, I presume. Un-hide it in settings and in the process it will update to the latest version. You can then re-hide it again. When you do this you may also have to change your update channnel back to what you were previously using, as it will default back to the Canary debug channel.

I don't have the parse error anymore with the latest version of Magisk on my Android 6 and 9 devices. What is your device? I did have it a few builds back (Canary debug).

[Magisk] CyberDie21:
Have the same parse error. Unhide was not active so i activaded it. Unhide everything and still got the same error. S9 with android 8.

Edit i fixed it.

Did a reset witch installed the 7 40 update. Then the Magisk update downloaden that again and both instellen are running now.
[Magisk] martyfender:
We are talking about two different things here. Yes, Magisk Hide is on by default. I am talking about something completely different. There is a setting in Magisk Manager, to also hide the manager, its self, by randomly changing it's package name and optionally, it's name.

Magisk Hide is a separate setting, which you can leave on. It has nothing to do with what I am talking about.

Finally, uninstalling MM only, then reinstalling MM only, will usually solve this issue as well. (MM=Magisk Manager).

From the Issue thread it sounds like a device issue not a Magisk issue, and others were able to get it to work, so you should ask in your device's forum.
[Magisk] chooks06:
Thanks for confirming my user's perspective of the MM and Magisk hide..

Recollect that quite a few users ended up with two managers (plus other issues) if they didn't revert to original MM before updating via MM.
[Magisk] chowfun:
Does anyone have an issue with the new MagiskHide mechanism? Although it looks like it works fine, after hiding Magisk Manager with a new package name, the app pops up and steals focus whenever an app requests root privileges (rather than just the normal toast notification). When the phone is rebooted, Magisk Manager keeps popping up because several apps request root privileges at boot. I also found that sometimes the Manager app would not go away and it would just get stuck on the home screen (it's like it's acting as your wallpaper but you cannot see any of your home screen icons, even though pressing where the icon is would open it).

I am on Magisk 20.1 w/ Manager 7.4.0 on the new MagiskHide mechanism.
[Magisk] ALTAiR916:
Thanks very much for your suggestion. The option "Restore Magisk Manager with original package name" in "Settings" did the trick. I was able to install the update.

Help.. Magisk Manager 7.3.5 won't open

i upgrade my oppo f1s from 5.1 LL to 6.0 MM. all process run smooth until i install magisk manager 7.3.5 ( i use magisk 20.0).

the problem is magisk manager only run and seem have no problem only once after installing it. after that it wont open or it open another app (examples: it open messages when i try to open magisk manager)

i've been try couple days to figure it out with no luck. please help and advise what should to do to solve my problem

thanks in advance
[Magisk] martyfender:
That is a strange issue in that it opens some other app than the Magisk Manager. Try this, go to settings, apps, Magisk Manager, (or Manager, if you have it hidden) and delete the cache and data for the app. Now try to launch the app. If that does not work, try uninstalling

Magisk Manager only

then reinstalling MM only again.

Which method did you use to install Magisk, the patched boot.img or by flashing a zip through a custom recovery? was this device already rooted and did you do a fresh install of the rom, or was it just and upgrade to Android 6 etc?

Let us know if any of the above helps, or not.

Unhide, try to hide again -> failed

[Magisk] Artim_96:
Did you do a reboot after installing 20.1 already? Otherwise that could be the sign that it wants to test for stub compatibility but can't because it needs 20.1 for that.

So the correct way would have been:

Unhide

Update both Magisk and Manager

Reboot

Hide manager
[Magisk] devil-kin:
I honestly don't remember. Could be that I first upgraded Magisk Manager.

I've rebooted the phone several times already (thinking that it might be that)

[MENTION=6159169]fvisagie[/MENTION] Release notes state that obfuscated app downloads the full app for Android 9, so this method, by design, won't work on Android 10 as downloading executable code from non-PlayStore sources is supposed to be strictly banned right ?

Edxposed app

UPDATE: OK, I finally figured it out. So, never mind, sorry for taking up the space.

I am beginning to feel stupid. I just rooted my Samsung Galaxy Tab S3. The first time I have rooted in 5years and everything went perfect. With the Rom came Magisk which I have never worked with before but I read a few instructions and tried to install Edxposed. I installed riru core 19 and riru Edxposed modules and rebooted. Is there supposed to be a app with a app icon in the app drawer or is it located within another app? If it is supposed to be in the app drawer I can't find it. Am I missing a step somewhere, I'm lost.
[Magisk] JudgeDread11:
On my OnePlus 7 running Android 10 oxygen is I can install apk's from any app, but I need to give that app the person to do so.

So instead of a system wide switch is now a per app permission.

There are plenty of apps in the play store to back up apps, like titanium backup but it's way out of the scope of this thread.
