I noticed today that I lost root. I searched and tried everything to fix it but I couldn't. So, I wiped out my entire phone and did a clean flash of Resurrection Remix 5.8.3 for the TMobile Note 3. Magisk worked after a clean flash.
Spent hours loading every app back on and now, Magisk isn't working again?
Please help?
Android version is 7.1.2.
Did it really lose root? I've found that randomly when you open Magisk it will claim that it has no root access, but when you close it (exit the app and swipe it away from the recents menu) and reopen it it will start functioning properly again.

Use un su zip first to remove the pre-installed root that rr has. Don't know if RR has root inbuilt now or not. But if it comes with root uninstall it and flash magisk on top of it and you are good to go
Me too have this problem. Magisk root sometimes gone, and i need to reboot device to make it work agan.
Tested in almost N custom roms like CM14.1, AEX, Omni, ViperOS, etc

If you installed magisk it will remove built in root automatically. -_-
Did you turn off magisk busybox ? It would help on fix that.
In another way, some of modules you installed may have potential to make you lose root. Trying to do enable/disable module to test it.
I did some more searching and someone said just flash Magisk again. I did that and it worked! But, then I lost root again several hours later, seems so random? I flashed Magisk again and it worked again.
I can only get two green on Magisk, the third green seems to run forever, I left it on for 10+ minutes and it still showed "testing".
BTW, I didn't flash the uninstall Magisk zip before re-flashing. I tried that way and my phone got into a bootloop. Luckily, I had a TWRP backup.

Thanks! I'll try this and see if it helps!
BTW, is anyone able to install Snapchat? I tried the Hide feature in Magisk and checked Snapchat, but it still knows I'm rooted and immediately closes after opening.
Also, the Sphero BB8 app? Anyone get that working? That one also closes right after opening.

No magisk just overrides the root. Use Un su zip first then flash magisk and u won't lose root

I just want to clarify.
If systemless SuperSU is detected, Magisk will use that. If any other root is installed, the installation script will attempt to remove it and install MagiskSU instead (not sure to be successful and might lead to issues). If no root is installed, MagiskSU will be used. To avoid issues, the unSU zip is quite useful.
From v13, Magisk will no longer be compatible with SuperSU.

Wow, this is very informative, thanks!
Which version of unSU.zip is the correct one to use? Is this one okay?

It is because your device lost safety net.
You need to reflash system and gapps.
Back up data partition then wipe all then flash rom and gaps and then magisk.
After starting device first enable magisk hide.
Then restore backed up /data.
After restart enable magisk hide switches and reboot system.
Profit.
Reply it works or not.

This time after reinstalling magisk is it working till now?
Or root is gone after some time?
I have successfully installed Magisk on my device Root works but when I try to install a magisk module I get an error about not being able to mount magisk.img. When I try to install through recovery the module is flashes without any errors but once you open the app It displays "no modules installed". Before the G5s plus that I have a had the Moto G5 Plus. It had the same problem I just had to install another kernel over stock one and Magisk would work as expected. Is there a kernel for stock room that would support Magisk. Anyone else had this problem or is it just me?
ive no issue installing modules through magisk. Theres a lot of factors here. You didnt mention but id presume you installed magisk through recovery. Also, I presume you installed xposed. Maybe the modules your using require xposed to work. I forgot the exact steps to install xposed through magisk, but its not hard, and Id assume anyways you tried all of that. Have to flask xposed through recovery if I remember, then you can install xposed app apk too through recovery, then open magisk and install the latest xposed there. Im not using a stock rom, however Im fully confident if you properly rooted, and unlocked your phone of course, (I assume you did, just saying) its not a kernel issue. Sorry if I wasnt any help, its all i can think of right now.
When I got the phone I unlocked the bootloader and installed TWRP. When I set up my device I went back to recovery to install Magisk 14.3. It installed correctly and I got root using Magisk but when I try to install any module through the Magisk app I get an error. If I got you right should I try to install Xposed too? I was planning to install Xposed, Magisk version. But when I try that I get an error. I have attached a screenshot of when I try to install Xposed by topjohnwu and Greenify for Magisk. I get the same error.
well, xposed may not be your issue if you cant install any module with magisk manager. The modules, majority of them, if not all of them, i dont know, do not require xposed. Some do, most do not. Now please keep in mind, i could be wrong. I would say this, no harm in installing xposed, its basically a must get anyways for many awesome apps/modules. How you install, first install the xposed manager, youll have to look around for it, its not on the play store. Then downkoad magisk xposed through magisk. Once you download that zip file boot into twrp and install xposed through twrp.
This is a youtube on it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MCcvsOp83A4 Now thing is, this may not fix any of your problems. But theres a chance it may. Like i said either way you want xposed on rooted phones anyways.
Patched kernel for stock. I have no problem running modules on Magisk. Flash in recovery.

Hi all, i'm using a stock rom, rooted with magisk and debloated (manually). I always faced this problem, the 90% of the modules i try to install ends with something like that:
See Screen below
However i've never asked help because i tought it was a Magisk problem resolvible with an update...but every update ended always in the same way for me when trying to install some modules. I've also attached some logs here of when i tried to update xposed systemless if someone could help me it will be really apprecciated!
P.s Anyone facing the same problem? I've read somewhere that a similar problem is common with Motorola devices but idk if this is the case

Is this via Magisk manager?

Yes this is via Magisk Manager, however the same error (could not mount something) appears also when i try to install a module via twrp. The "best" thing is that some module just works both way (Busybox NDK for example) while other fails both ways. No module work in a way and doesn't work in another. So basically if a module work in magisk can be installed also via twrp otherwise it cannot be installed, no matter what i try
I have the same problem. Trying to install viper4a.
I have no clue how to fix it

I think this is a bug in Magisk with the way some modules attempt to install and mount, which is why some work.
I'm surprised though that they don't install in TWRP. Is your device encrypted, can you mount /data in recovery?

Well as far as i know, if you're on stock rom you won't be able to install audio mods because they're in conflict with something in the Rom. You should use a custom rom instead. However not sure 100% about this, maybe some audio mods can work, but you should ask someone else, i'm not so informed
As the title states ...v4a is it compatible with pie? Im rooted running a custom rom rooted with magisk. Installed v4a thru magisk manager it installs but i get the install driver /re-install driver message everytime. Is it an workaround to get it working?

infinity rom.
magisk v18 and also newer test canary builds.
but prety sure its an issue where you don't wait 3 minutes after rebooting before doing actions that require root.
and not sure to which extent you tried to make magisk work with various files and mods but maybe you should just factory wipe and try and get magisk working before anything else. also mayke sure busybox is installed. and dont forget that 3 minute rule after a reboot.

Thanks im sure it maybe an magisk issue im running 17.3 because i kept losing root on v18. I acquire root with v4a but it freezes and then keeps telling me to reinstall driver after reboot. I will try the 3 minute rule though..thank you. You installed v4a directly thru magisk or flashed a different version?

I have tried everything for hours to get viper4android to work with no avail until now. Go to the xda download page and select the beta version. Boom. It works. I know you might have long forgot this or already figured it out but I had to share
old legacy magisk module has been working for months and months.
The latest OTA update made my phone bootloop if i re-flash magisk patched init_boot image...
After I asked Stock users, it looks like it's a GrapheneOS june update + Magisk specific issue.
Do someone else also have this issue?
Phone boots normally, then reboot to recovery instead of reaching lock screen.
For now, I re-flashed panther-factory-2023061402 init_boot.
Have you tried Magisk canary version? or maybe GrapheneOS doesn't like june update and newest Magisk and you need to either go back down to stable Magisk or an older version of Magisk?
Actually, after re-reading your OP, a module might be the cause of the bootloop -- I've recently seen similar behavior from other members where device bootloops or crashes during/right-after loading & starting up -- if you were on the stock ROM I would suggest you loading up in Safe Mode to see if it is a module issue; I don't know anything about GrapheneOS so I don't know if it offers anything similar. I wonder if the adb command to remove modules at boot would work....
mhh, right, i don't have a lot of modules aside hosts, fdroid and busybox, but it may be module-related.
Until now, I did everything with TWRP, but now, well, let's say it's a little more difficult =)
... safe mode works with GrapheneOS, good =)
re-enabling modules one by one until i find the culprit.
... and the failing module was... Magisk built-in Busybox 1.0.5 \o/
