Does the following method work for taking OTA updates on the most current magisk module? Obviously assuming that we have stock bootloader no TWRP...

https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/blob/master/docs/tips.md#ota-installation-tips
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Zorachus:
Please help;

I just got my Pixel 2 XL couple days ago, still haven't put my SIM to use as my daily driver yet too busy. Anyways right away out of the box I updated to 8.1 then rooted it following Max Lee's guide, using Magisk, and the latest official TWRP Recovery, and then setup the phone the way I like.

Anyways past few days phone's all good no issues. Then tonight I started playing with it after work, I open the Google Play Store and it keeps force closing for no reason. I then open Magisk, it asked me to install Magisk Modules, I say yes, phone reboots, and now both Play Store and Magisk force close every time I open them.

I went back into Recovery, wiped Davlik / Art cache, then flashed Magisk 14.5 again, rebooted, and phone stayed on the white Google load screen for 15 minutes. So I forced a hard restart and it booted up fine.

I tap Google Play Store app, and it forced closed again. I tap Magisk and it forced closed. But other rooted apps working fine like AdAway and Titanium Backup no issues.

So ?????

Uninstall the overlays for magisk and playstore :good:
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Zorachus:
Wow thank you, disabling those two made everything work again. Why didn't I think of that ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Badger50:
Meh...for the same reason I forget simple stuff too bruh....because we can. Play Store was just updated yesterday. Got up, and force close it went. That's why I really like Swift Dark/Black. They do a very good job keeping up with google app changes :good:
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Zorachus:
Yeah Swift Dark has been my go to for a long time, but I never liked the blue top borders on the Phone app and Messages. Is there a way to not have that big blue top bar on Swift Dark ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Badger50:
I haven't found a way on Oreo yet. However it really doesn't bother me. You could keep your mono art theme, and just use an overlay from swift dark/black for play store. That way you can keep things the way you like until mono is updated for play store :good:
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Alxoom33:
See below.

There is nothing that I can tell from your descriptions, no details of what you did and no logs.

The only thing that I can suggest is that you relock your bootloader to fully wipe your device clean. Then reinstall the 8.1 factory image and set up clean without restoring any user data. Don't add any mods, just Root with Magisk install latest TWRP and Kernel of your choice and see if it works without bootlooping for at least a week. If it bootloops, return to Google.

Then, only add 1 mod at a time and test for several days at a time. If you bootloop, then you will know what mod is causing the bootloop.

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] dmarden:
That was not necessary for me in following the devs "Notes & Troubleshoots" section that he refers to. I am sure there a probably a few ways to eventually get there, though.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] HankMcCoyX:
Ah, I never noticed that note! Good to know there's another way to go about it.

BTW does anyone know if we will ever be able to install Magisk using the Direct Install method? I upgraded using the patch boot.img and fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img in adb.

Thanks!
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] dmarden:
Yes, with the exception of the initial test release I have only been using the direct install option... no issues.

Do you have a link to where it says it avoids the error dialog? I can't find it and after installed it still gives the error after booting.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] dmarden:
Refer to the "Notes & Troubleshoots" section of the OP in the main Magisk thread.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] krweby:
So this part?

Q: After flashing Magisk, my device will show a scary popup saying "There's an internal problem with your device. Contact your manufacturer for details"

A: This is caused by dtbo image patched to remove AVB 2.0 of the vendor partition. This is required for allowing you to mount vendor to rw and make modifications

If you never plan to modify the vendor partition, in Magisk Manager, "Uninstall > Restore Images" to restore the images, check "Preserve AVB 2.0/dm-verity" box in Advanced Settings, then reinstall Magisk via the app.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] dmarden:
Yup. Verified to work perfectly on my end.

As he said there is no custom rom that is built from aosp codes currently for pixel 2. When he releases his, it most likely will be the first one unless someone jury beats him to the punch in the mean time.

Need a little help please. On 8.1 rooted with TWRP 3.2.1 and Magisk 14.520, Magisk Manager 5.4. I get a message for Magisk Manager update to 5.5. I download the apk and update in Magisk , hit install but it never installs. How to get the new version installed?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] v12xke:
Download the newest beta (1468) and put that on your device. Then uninstall Magisk Manager (Long press>>App Info>>Uninstall). Boot to Recovery and flash the new Magisk zip you saved. Profit. If you hid your Magisk in the past, you may need to flash the zip twice from TWRP.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ginfest:
Perfect thanks much. Happy Holidays ?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Alxoom33:
You need to uninstall the old Magisk Manager from the App, reboot and install 5.5 from the Magisk folder. You may also need to flash 15.6 in the Magisk Manager once you reboot.

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] nldxda:
When doing this step, I get the error "Target Magisk version doesn't support boot image file patching" :confused:

Somebody please help me get past this step. Thanks. :fingers-crossed:
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Cowbell_Guy:
This happens to me as well. First I would Use the latest version of magisk manager.

Then, make sure that your update channel is set to Beta and here you are using 14.6 .

That fixed it for me.

Not sure what my problem is. I've flashed the magisk patched boot img several times without any errors but every time I boot up, magisk is not installed and I don't have root access.

I'm stock, with an unlocked bootloader. I just want root access so I can edit the build.prop and allow tethering. Other details are attached. I've used these instructions to install magisk: https://android.gadgethacks.com/how-to/root-pixel-2-pixel-2-xl-install-magisk-0181117/

I downloaded the firmware for my build (attached) and extracted the boot.img to patch using magisk manager (log attached). But when I flash it, nothing seems to change even though the flash appears to be confirmed.

Let me know what you guys think. All relevant screenshots attached.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Alxoom33:
Reboot :) and all should be fine.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] bplewis24:
Rebooting didn't help (tried that a few times). However, I did try the TWRP flash method (again...didn't work yesterday) and eventually got it to work. I was following this guide: http://highonandroid.com/android-smartphones/how-to-root-pixel-2-or-pixel-2-xl-easiest-method/

When I followed those steps, I got the same error from yesterday saying the 14.0 magisk file wouldn't install. But then I used a 14.4 file (I think downloaded from this thread) and it worked. Rooted and got tethering fixed. It's been a few years since I've been rooted. Feels good to be back :)
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] v12xke:
Now that TWRP is working well, I don't use the patched boot method anymore. For the latest beta version of Magisk 14.6 (1468), I first placed the zip file on the phone, uninstalled the app per the release notes (long-press Magisk>>App Info>>Uninstall) then rebooted to Recovery. Flashed Magisk and rebooted. The new Magisk Manager 5.5.0 was already installed by flashing the zip in TWRP. Even when using SuperSU in the past, I never used the apk to install updates. I always d/l the installer and flashed with TWRP. Oh, and welcome back! :good:

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Schroeder09:
I have twrp 3.2.1-0, magisk 14.5, and ElementalX kernel 1.0. today I received the notification from magisk that an update was available. It's v15.0. I clicked update the manager to 5.5.1. when I clicked to download the .zip this message came up. Is it best to download the .zip and flash and TWRP? Are there any preliminary steps I have to do before that? Will his update break viper or the iytbp youtube?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Alxoom33:
Do direct install in Magisk Manager. Very easy. TWRP flash is not required

Those of you who use TWRP, what so you do to flash ota when they come out? I used the patched boot with stock recovery so I can easily take ota without losing Magisk/root.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Alxoom33:
You're very welcome!

---------- Post added at 10:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:56 PM ----------

I've flashed the full factory image.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] wy1d:
Via fastboot? So you can only update with a laptop?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Alxoom33:
Best way to update!
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] annoyingduck:
FYI stable Magisk v15.0 is working perfect. I simply fastboot booted TWRP 3.2.1 and flashed the Magisk v15 stable zip. Fully rooted, no toast warnings, all is well in the world. I did not permanently flash TWRP, as I want a seamless update process of just uninstalling Magisk and updating.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] aaronc_98:
So to clarify:

You are BL unlocked, and were not rooted and you simply:

1. Fastboot booted to TWRP 3.2.1

2. and flashed the Magisk v15 stable zip

And that is it? Is there a way to root without an Unlocked BL? Forgive if this is a dumb question- I have not done this in a while :)

thanks,
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] annoyingduck:
Yes bootloader unlocked (including critical), previously unrooted. That's it, 2 steps for my needs. Unfortunately you must be unlocked to root.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Cowbell_Guy:
Can you explain a little bit more about how you update an apply OTAs? I tried the patch to boot method with the November update using the jet Hub instructions on top John Wus page, however it soft bricked my phone.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] annoyingduck:
What I plan on doing is simply uninstalling magisk fully (either through the app or by fastboot booting TWRP and flashing the magisk uninstaller zip), rebooting, taking the ota, then just reinstalling magisk via fastboot booting TWRP again. That's why I keep the stock recovery installed. Super easy. I see no need to have TWRP fully installed if your running the stock ROM, but that's just me. I don't want to deal with the dual slot install method via magisk manager during OTA's. What I just listed is simple and will work every time (unless the OTA patches root).

I'm noticing a pattern from the past few releases.

* Direct install from Magisk: SafetyNet fails

* Install from TWRP: SafetyNet passes
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ilal2ielli:
I've done two direct installs in a row for 14.6 and 15 with no SafetyNet issues.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Alxoom33:
Steps are correct.

No, not that I know. You need to have an unlocked/unlockable bootloader to root!
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Az Biker:
I just "direct installed" 15.0 from magisk app, and safety net passes.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] LLStarks:
Weird. I'll see if I can replicate a few more times.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Alxoom33:

You might have something else going on!
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Cowbell_Guy:
I'm assuming that everyone else is still having the internal problem with your device error on reboot even with version 15? I was hoping that that would have been fixed in this release.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] jamiejames:
It was fixed with 14.6. No error message with 15.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Wilazn:

My error still pops up on 15.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] equlizer:
I get error on 15 too updated from 14.6
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] jamiejames:
Try a fresh install. Did you flash over the top of 14.5?
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] ilal2ielli:
The error will continue to pop-up for a anyone that had installed Magisk prior to 14.6 if you don't reflash the dtbo.img with whatever dtbo.img that you are using.

So if you are on stock, you need to flash the stock dtbo.img first before flashing the new Magisk.

Same for custom kernels, reflash custom kernel dtbo, then flash the newest Magisk.

Edited: Fixed error pointed out by [MENTION=6302926]Golf c[/MENTION]
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Golf c:
Error message has nothing to do with the boot image. Go into Magisk Manager and check AVB 2.0/dm verity and then fastboot the stock dtbo image in fastboot.

The error message is from Magisk removing AVB verity from the dtbo image.

Sometimes, I had to clean flash the boot partition and flash the stock dtbo image to get it to work. I would start with the stock dtbo image first.

Remember, the downside of having AVB verity enabled is you can't edit files in the Vendor partition and some mods may not work right.

I updated Magisk to 15.0 via TWRP after flashing the latest Flask kernel. However, it didn't update the Magisk manager. I've tried many times, and the 5.5.1 update downloads but when I hit install, I get a message that app is not installed. What's the best way to get the manager installed?

Thanks.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] CyberpodS2:
Exactly, that's why I've been so surprised over people's worrying about the message so much... it's not like we are rebooting every 5 minutes. It's one and done...
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Golf c:
I will never enable AVB verity again. The message doesn't bother me at all. The whole point of root is to have access. We are removing another layer of security but we are already exposed somewhat. I am willing to sacrifice SOME security to hack this badass beast.
[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Alxoom33:
After Magisk Manager 5.51 downloads, uninstall your current Magisk Manager. Then reboot and install the APK from the Magisk Manager app using Root Explorer or similar app.

That's it!

That's a personal choice. I am pleased to use apps that work without disabling AVB verity. Everyone has a different tolerance to risk.

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Az Biker:
So I was curious about the AVB verity thing...

I was on 15.0 with no "internal error...." message, installed 14.5 via TWRP thinking it would remove AVB verirty, and return the "internal error...." message.

The error message came back (as expected), but the verity and forced encryption boxes remained check...

Experiment failed :D

I flashed 15.0 in TWRP and even though 15.0 and manager 5.5.1 were installed, but the "internal error...." message remains on reboot.

Everything works, it's no big deal, just curious about the message not being removed after re-installing 15.0...

My apologies for not being more clear.

I know that flashing the dtbo.img removes the message.

[Google Pixel 2 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] dmarden:
You have to follow the dev's instructions (referenced in the release notes). I posted the details a couple times if you want to refer back.

Short version is that updating Magisk does not, in and of itself, get rid of the error. It simply avoid creating the scenario that results in getting the area in the first place.

If you read the dev's notes section, I think it'll clear it up for you.
