Hey,
I've been trying to install Magisk and it asks me to have SuperSU installed before I do, which I don't want. How do I install MagiskSU or even Magisk if it asks me to install SuperSU?...
Thanks

Try flashing Magisk in recovery.

Can you give more details? What ROM, Magisk version, logs, etc?
I would suggest flashing osmOsis's UnSU zip, then Magisk v11.2.

Your boot image is pre-patched for SuperSU. Flash a clean boot image.
Yeah I found the original boot.img of the stock rom my rom is based on and flashed it and it fixed it! Thanks guys

In the ROM zip.
In case it has built-in superuser, I would suggest flashing osmOsis's unsu zip as well.
Is MagiskSU just another name for Magisk? A module I want to install has the following requirements:
Requirements:
Magisk v13.x/14.0
MagiskSU
I have Magisk v14.5 installed so does that mean I automatically have MagiskSU or is that something additional I have to add?

That requirement is probably a remnant from when Magisk also was compatible with SuperSU. It's not anymore, so when installing Magisk you get MagiskSU along with it.

Thanks! I was confused by that and I couldn't find a good answer when searching. Your help is greatly appreciated!
Oddly, I don't have any root after installing Magisk v15 via recovery. Magisk is working, integrity tests are both green, can install all the modules with no problem and integrity tests are still green, but no root.
Interesting, isn't it?

I believe Magisk dropped SuperSu support at some point before v13. Magisk now includes its own systemless root solution, so SuperSu is not needed. Try uninstalling Magisk and SuperSu and flashing the latest 13.3 zip.

Two options:
If you have a pre-supersu/Magisk backup, restore it (at least the boot part).
If you don't have a backup (I encourage you to make them in the future...):
You need to go to the forum post with the fixed prime 6.5 zip downloads. Download the ~1gb zip, unzip it, and grab the boot.img from there. Flash it in twrp by going to install, install image (bottom right). Choose boot. When the flash finishes, reboot to recovery and flash Magisk.

Sure thing. See you around!
Why would someone use Magisk instead of traditional root? Are there some apps that you need to use that won't work on the rooted phone? I guess that there are a few, like snap chat and maybe Netflix but I don't use those on the Blu R1 HD.
I followed Colton's original root thread and while he, at first, included Magisk, he later advised switching to the non-Magisk root and I did. What would I gain by switching back to Magisk?

I wanted to use systemless xposed framework because the official version is not supported on my device. Also I wanted to use the modules that are specifically for magisk

Systemless xposed does not work either found this out earlier today device would not boot after installation of xposed through magisk
Ah, that would be a problem for me. I wouldn't want to use a phone without xposed. I have to have all the tweaking and customizations available in gravitybox and a few other modules.
So what will you do now? Give up xposed or Magisk? Or try to find or wait for a version of xposed that works on Magish?
It was a long time ago, but I think I remember running into problems running xposed on Magisk and Colton provided some helpful advice in his original thread about reflashing the rom, getting root, then installing xposed - he had seperate threads for those.

The best way to install Xposed is via Magisk.
Unroot your device completely by flashing the stock firmware or just the boot image then flash Magisk.
Open Magisk manager and install the Xposed module.
Nothing else required. All without affecting system or permanently breaking anything. It's as simple as removing the module to revert.

You don't need to decide. The latest version is dynamic and will install the correct version.
Hello all, thanks for your insight.!
Just wondering if it's possible to Magisk root with the most current SM-N950Fxx. I see no guides for that so wonder if I can simply :
1. Install TWRP & 2. Install Magisk root via recovery.

The same method as before.
I've updated my note 8 to the latest firmware and was able to root it using magisk. I suggest to flash a custom kernel that has rmm fix. otherwise if you reboot your device you'll have an error "official binaries.." something like that and you wont be able to boot it up.
Can i install magisk through temporary twrp (using fastboot boot recovery xxx.img) in my poco f 1 ?
The answer to that would be a definite maybe.
Joke aside, that should work fine as long as TWRP is otherwise working as it should. There's no difference in functionality between flashing or just booting TWRP.
Why not flash it directly? That is, if there is a twrp for your phone.
As to Magisk, ask XDA

If i flash temporary twrp , i can flash my OTAs too
I seen some of the people following this,
Flashing temporary twrp and flashing magisk and whenever OTA receives they are simply uninstalling magisk and flashing OTA.
Here my question if i go with this magisk will work perfectly or not ?
@Nicky Cheer There should be no issues with that setup. If you haven't already, I'd advice you to also take a look at @topjohnwu's OTA instructions.

Tq @Didgeridoohan and @topjohnwu for clarifying
But one more doubt what is the difference between restore image and complete uninstall under magisk manager ?

Restore image - only restore the stock boot image and leave all Magisk internals intact.
Complete uninstall - remove everything Magisk related from your device.
First option is preferred, since you then won't have to set everything up again afterwards.
