Just experienced the same issue. After installing some modules and rebooting
I am experiencing the same thing.. but when or how I don't know... I just take reboot and again root will be back. Might be some other app like clean master or auto killing apps kills magisk services???
I had the issue too, but it stopped when I disabled MagiskHide. That of course is only a solution if you don't actually need it.
Not being an expert, I never found a way to debug the issue or contribute otherwise.
I can confirme. Also when MagiskHide is on, I experience random reboots, which is bigger problem. Any fix for it?

Just a thought: have you added any system apps/processes to the Hide list?
No, i didn't. I don't use android pay, and i don't think that hiding root may be necessary for any other system app. When I turn MagishHide I have maybe 1 min before reboot. All was fine first few hours after installation, before first root losing.
If it will help, I'm on AOSP 6.0 custom ROM. My device is i9505. What's interesting it happens only if mobile data is on. Wi-fi doesn't do any troubles.
I will throw my experience into this thread as well. I am running Magisk 11.1 with DarkRom on my Nexus 5. Everything seems to work very smooth outside of randomly loosing root. I don't have to reflash, just reboot and it comes back. I do have MagiskHide enable for Android Pay. I also have the AppSystemizer model installed to covert Action Launcher 3 to systems. No random reboots, but loosing root is annoying. I may try to disable MagiskHide and see if that solves the root drop issue. Android Pay is handy though.
Ok Folks my 2 cents in regards to this trouble, i have did some work in reproducing this Magisk Root Loss.
say i have few apps like 1) SafetyNet Sample: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.scottyab.safetynet.sample&hl=en & 2) RootChekerPro app and both these apps are hided them from root using MagiskHide.
So when i launch Magisk Manager app and checked safetynet Status and then opened app1 (safetynet Sample) ran the test and then immediately did Forcestop the Magisk manager app and launched back Magisk Manager app boom the root is lost and did a reboot everything is back fine again.
I've been trying to find the cause of this issue for a couple of weeks. This is what works for me so far
1. Open Magisk Manager when root is working (either immediately after rebooting or after disabling Magisk Hide).
2. Does Magisk BusyBox and Magisk Hide.
3. Reboot
4. Enable Magisk Hide, but keep Magisk BusyBox disabled.
5. Reboot
Check if root disappears anymore.
I think Magisk Hide is causing the issue, disabled the Magisk Hide and the root stays.
It may also be releated with GApps package - it could explain why some people have this issue with losing root/stability but others no. You can try with smaller package (picko/nano).
Magisk 11.5 seems to fix the issue for me

No, it's just randomly occurring.
I was having the same problem with 11.1 and flashed the 11.5. It doesn't fixed.
Then flashed the ROM and 11.1 again the root is still there.
I don't know what exactly triggers the root to hide but there is something going on.
works on first flash of 11.1, then the next reboot breaks it again. uninstalling and reinstalling magisk fixes it again until the next reboot
I switch on MagiskHide only when I need it. So far it's quite good option, doesn't require any reboots.
did more testing, I don't lose root at all when I have MagiskHide disabled. Deleting /magisk/.core/magiskhide in recovery returns root.
Mostly a "me too" post. Issue still occurs on 11.6.
I tried replacing MagiskSU with SuperSU. But still the issue remains.
Hi everyone,
I am using the application Raiffeisen Twint (version 1.2.16.0, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ch.raiffeisen.twint) on my Magisk's rooted Google Pixel (Android 8.0, Nov. 2017) without problems for a while, but since Magisk 14 versions, the application stopped working and the application reports that root is detected.
I have successfully updated to Magisk 14.5 (from 14.2), but root is still detected by the application, even with Magisk Hide activated for the application and the Magisk Manager package moved to a random name (could also be related to the updated application).
I have cleared the data of the application several times and it doesn't help and root is still detected by the application...
Anyone has a idea?
Thanks for your answers!
Like I said in the Magisk support thread, I can hide Magisk from that app just fine (on Magisk v14.5 beta)...
You don't happen to have any other mods that might trigger an app looking for root (like Xposed)? Can your device pass SafetyNet? Have you previously been rooted with any other root method and do you have any remnants of that left (root management apps, etc)? Do you have any apps that are known to be used for questionable purposes. By "questionable purposes" I mean getting access to paid features without paying, etc. Not necessarily that you use the app for this, but that the app might be used in such a manner... Etc, etc, etc. Every little detail might count.
Hi Didgeridoohan,
Thanks for helping me!
I do not have any mods installed in Magisk and also no Xposed. My device is passing SafetyNet!
I have performed a factory reset last week and since that I only rooted my device with Magisk 14.2, so no other rooting applications used. For details, I have unlocked bootloader, TWRP recovery installed and developer options and USB debugging activated.
My settings in Magisk are:
I have following applications installed on my device:
https://pastebin.com/pmt4jBMV
Do you see any applications with "questionable purpose"?
I get this message in the application:
Thanks a lot!
At a quick glance everything looks ok...
I did some experimenting with the other Raiffeisen apps you have installed, in case they also detect root and "tell" on you. At least one of them did detect root, but from what I could see it didn't make any difference for Twint.
I also tested installing a few of the root apps you had installed (in case the app looks for certain known apps), but that didn't make any difference either. I could still successfully hide root.
My guess is that it's something along these lines tough. That it's using another app or detecting a root app. You could start experimenting with that. Clearing data for the other Raiffeisen apps and adding them to MagiskHide and also removing root apps. Try disabling USB debugging and developer options as well (didn't make difference for me, but worth a shot).
Simple. Change name of package from settings in Magisk Manager, then MAKE SURE you add twint app to magisk hide list, then ERASE DATA of twint app, change package name once again and run twint. Working with Magisk 14.5. Screens if u want available. Or video.
Hi Didgeridoohan, Hi Mamama07,
Thanks for your help, but sadly none of your suggestions did worked... until the update of the application released yesterday, to fix problem related to rooted devices! [emoji3]
Thanks anyway again for your help! [emoji106]
I had the same problem (with BCV Twint) and after a few tries, changing Magisk Package Name worked!
Hi, thanks for reading.
I've used Magisk 17.3 with all my bank apps perfectly, with Magisk hide and Magisk manager hidden.
After update to 18.0 and update manager to 6.1, the bank apps start detecting root status, and stop working.
So, I've flashed back to 17.3 and old manager 6.0.1, and everything's back to working normally.
My system:
Poco F1
LineageOS 16.0 built 27/11/2018
The apps are from Thai's banks:
SCB EASY: detected root, still working
TMB Touch: detected root, stop working
KTB Next: detected root, working partially
If you'd want any log or anything, please also tell me how to get them.

Can confirm that this works, thanks.
For me, it started getting detected on 17.x even before updating to 18, right after the banking app (Sparkasse) was updated.
LG G6.

This didn't work for me. I had to downgrade back to 17.1 to get my banking app working again. Appears that the root detection prevention is a regression in this latest version.

Did all of these...still got detected.
I have the same problem. Magisk says: ctsProfile: False and Google Pay don't work. Also my Banking App detects root.
I flashed today the latest Los 15 build and the crt false error is till there after flashing magisk 18. The same error is also with 17.4...
Tell me if I'm wrong but I believe we have two different reports: the original report where root is detected, and the ctsProfile/basicIntegrity failing. The second one is a regression fixed by rebooting device (however, it is annoying to reboot 10 times a day because suddenly SafetyNet fails for no reason).
I am using Magisk Hide Props module, and after 18.0 update Santander App detects root, even with Magisk Manager says I pass safetynet
It's happened with my bank app as it detected root & saftynet false and have to downgrade to ver.17.2

See in install app delete old magisk manager, after install magisk 18.0 new magisk manager rename to manager.
I have same problem. After install v18 magisk, same bank app can detect the system is rooted. Downgrade to v17.2, all bank app become normal.
Same here since Magisk 18 my BankApp (Intesa Sanpaolo) start and says that there is a safety problem and it close, if I choose Magiskhide it doesn't start at all.
SafetyNet check spin without an end.
With Magisk 17.1 and 17.3 no problem at all.
Same problem here, after upgrading to Magisk 18 claiming to better hide root in the history, apps now suddenly detect root.
This affects also the Safety Net check and Google Pay... so far, Root Hiding in 18.0 seems COMPLETELY broken.
A solution would be great.
Later... after downgrading to Magisk 17.2, MagiskHide is working for me again and Safetynet checks succeed. The dev is aware of the problem, an issue is open on the Magisk Github (#907)
After uninstalling and reinstalling my bankapp now works without any problem and doesn't detect root even if is not under Magisk hide
I can confirm the v18 update breaks something and BOTH safety net checks fail. So all apps detect you are rooted, especially bank apps and Get Pay. Downgrading back to v17 restored everything to normal.
The only thing I could think of is the installation method. I did the direct install rather than installing the zip via recovery. Not sure if it makes a difference but I will wait for next release.
I am on a Pixel 2 with Android Pie updated to the Aug 2018 release.

I did not uninstall but tried clearing bank app data and cache and the problem persisted. Magisk still showing all red for safetyNet. Just sharing testing feedback.
@Djtrip83 Did you try just toggling MagiskHide off and on once after updating to v18? Sometimes MagiskHide simply needs a restart after an update...
I did that too. Toggled Hide on and off for all apps. Repackaged Magisk. Turned off USB debugging. Removed modules installed. Tried everything I thought would work. Even restored hosts in case Ad Away affected something on /system.
The only thing I did not do was remove root apps and re-install them to re-grant permissions after the Magisk update. And I wonder now if uninstalling Magisk completely and make a brand new clean install with v18 would work rather than upgrading.
I was at a loss so I downgraded. Sorry I don't have a log to share. However, v17 works fine.

We might be misunderstanding each other, but what I'm talking about is simply to go to the Manager settings and change the toggle for MagiskHide to off and then on. No need to do anything to the Hide list or anything else... Did you do that? As I said, that's sometimes something you the to do after an update, but it's rare.
Hi, first time posting to XDA and I'll try to be concise, but I am tremendously confused and quite frightful of having to reflash/factory reset my entire device.
I got Magisk 6.1.0(165) after my Xposed Framework became more of a problem than a solution a long time ago, with a basic desire of rooting my device to control what apps boot at launch and examine Wakelocks and run an ad blocker.
For a long time, I did not update after the headache of clearing Safetynet and getting things functional.
Magisk prompted me to update, and I decided to after I had installed a few new apps that I now wanted to block from running on boot, but I never got around to finding a method to prevent apps from loading at startup like I desired with Xposed, i previously just disabled or uninstalled the problematic apps.
Before updating, I used TWRP to run a backup and rebooted.
After the update, Magisk informed me that the latest version i had updated to, was not supported and that it would behave asif it wasn't installed at all... Great...
I downloaded the zip to my device's SD card, and after a reboot noticed that I had Two installs of Magisk. When I held the icon to view app info, one of them would behave as I expected, and the other would show me additional options like modules, downloads, superuser and hide.
When I opened the second copy of Magisk, the first one vanished from my applications tray and cannot be found anymore, and Magisk now shows it's green checkmark next to Latest Version v20.4 and Installed Version 17.1 but Safetynet gives me an API error.
Clicking Update Magisk Manager from the menu offers to install v7.5.1(267) but I am wary enough that I am unsure if I should proceed and am not even sure if Magisk has a module that I am looking for-- Something to control what apps launch on startup.
Will updating Magisk Manager show a new list of additional modules to be downloaded and perhaps something that I am looking for? Should I be worried about bootlooping my device and needing to reset it?
I once used the Boot Manager found on the Xposed Framework, but it's long since become non-functional and became the reason why I simply uninstalled what was bothering me, but now I want to keep the new applications that I have and disable their bootup on start.
Is Magisk the place that I should be looking for such a feature?
Running a Samsung GalaxyS5.
So, an OTA caused a loss of root (pixel 6 pro, unlocked). Tried to go into a hidden magisk and disable modules, but everything greyed out, unable to. Tried to uninstall the manager (I was using an old MagiskAlpha build), and thought it worked, though it must have left something behind. Updating wouldn't work - would give me a failure.
Flashed new factory image, installed new magisk manager, patched boot.img in new magisk manager, loaded boot.img, and I have root; adb shell su works, all my old apps that worked with root work, but no magisk manager recognizing that I have root - and therefore no modules - working. So, no charging management, safetynet is borked, etc. Have uninstalled/reinstalled mm numerous times. No luck. Tried loading it from adb, etc.
I've dug through adb shell pm list packages and can't find anything that looks like an old version of magisk at all anywhere anymore. I think I had three different versions on the phone. They are all gone. But no luck with a freshly installed manager. Still can't see root even though it's there. Any ideas?
Of note: I have a work profile and two users on the phone. However, I can't find anything even using --user for all three users. Only thing even close I see is com.lsposed.manager still installed. That shouldn't be a factor, but I can't think of anything at this point.
TB checker, under "check root" gives pass for everything except SU binary, 2nd SU binary, root via native, and magisk specific.
Under Check xposed, I have fail for dual/work profile and xprivacyLua, and com.topjohnwu.magisk under PM Sundry APIs. Everything else is Pass.
I had never granted TB checker root before; Termux on the other hand works fine with su (as does adb shell), and Root Essentials shows root fine.
Magisk Manager was downloaded from topjohnwu's github, then I manually added the canary URL, and updated to canary. No luck.
Any other ideas?
One other thing... /data/adb/magisk was dated; all the other directories in /data/adb were new, but magisk was from my last update of MagiskAlpha, and when I looked at util_functions.sh it was aligned to my old (uninstalled) magisk alpha build
So, the /data/adb/magisk tipped me off. I pulled the hidden apk info from the magisk.db, and from there was able to (while rooted) manually delete all the references to the hidden apk string (just did a find /data/* | grep [hidden package name] ) and once they were all deleted, deleted everything from /data/adb - the magisk.db and everything - and then next time I went into magisk, it informed it was incorrectly configured, I pressed okay, it fixed itself, and full root in magisk was restored.
had to reinstall all modules, but that wasn't a very big price to pay. Safetynet fixed (google pay worked just fine at the store yesterday), xprivacylua, etc., all worked.
As of right now, other than a citi app *****ing that I'm possibly rooted (and then it still works fine anyway), haven't had any issues with leaving magisk unhidden, so not going to hide it again unless I need to. Wasn't worth the PITA to fix it if something like this happens again.
