After flashing magisk 13.2
System app away ask for root access for one time when startup
And I find the system app will ask for root access again if I change the setting of selinux
I'm getting the exact same thing on my device, left everything default and tried factory reset and it keeps happening , did you find any solution for this?
Most likely an RR bug. I deny it once and it never asks again unless I wipe Magisk manager data.

At first I was certain it was only one system app that's trying to gain root access so I wasted about an hour googling it trying to find a solution but after I wiped Magisk manager I found out it will ask for random system apps upon reboot, I couldn't find anything about this issue except this post, the weird thing that all of them is issuing setenforce 1 and on all of them list the FM radio app on their data usage for some reason.
Also I wanna avoid giving everything root access so I hope I can find a solution for this because I like RR and I don't want to switch to another rom.

Try denying it instead of granting it. Also, I think the bug is that it's the Settings app that's doing it (because of the SELinux switch) but the OS mistakes it as another system app, maybe they share the same system stuff) Idk, I'm not a dev. Sometimes when I monitor network activity anything the kernel does is showed up as FM Radio. If this doesn't make sense, I'm tired lol.
Thanks for answering, It's driving me crazy because I'm the type of guy that has to know what causing it but I've spent too much time on this already and this seems the only post I can find on this subject,maybe I need to master my Google fu or maybe it's rare because I'm pretty sure I didn't get this on my previous flash...
Anyway, I just saw that Lineage OS has finally been released officially for the redmi note 4 so I'm gonna give it a try, but because RR is mostly based on LOS I hope I'm not gonna get the same results.
Update: I've clean flashed the latest nightly of LinageOS ,GApps and Magisk(it doesn't come bundled) and so far I'm not getting strange root requests from system apps so like you said looks like it's a RR related bug, I'll try clean flashing RR again just to see if it will fix this, if not I will probably stick with LOS.
Did any of you guys enable the "suspend actions" in RR configuration settings?
I first had this happen a couple months ago and related it to the suspend actions. Makes sense right, since your radio is trying to switch itself to 2g?
Omfg. Been looking for this post everywhere, dang and not much topic on it.. ):

No it doesn't.. I disabled the activity for the switch using my Android tools though, seems it did the trick.

Hello,
I'm using MIUI 8 on my phone, its based on marshmallow 6.0.1. I rooted my device using supersu stable 2.78 as systemless mode. The problem is all need-root apps take long time to call supersu at first time it launched. Sometimes need-root app crash if it does not get superuser access for long time. The culprit is on systemless supersu, Superuser.apk installed inside /data partition instead of /system so it won't load on system start. Although i already add SuperSU in startup list, but it was not much help. I did not get this issue on CM13 based rom. Temporary solution is I need to open SuperSU first before open need-root apps for first time.
How to get rid from this issue?
Cc: @Chainfire
Have you found solution yet. Me too facing similar problem, some of my personal apps crashing, I found a system based super Su zip let me flash and report back..

Yes. Use phh superuser + magisk latest version. :good:
actually this is not the right answer, wrong thread
Hi
I'm sorry for bumping old thread, I've same issue with very same ROM, MIUI 8 8.1.6 run on mi4W device, magisk 13.3
how I managed to solve this is somewhat ridiculously simple yet make me wandering over the internet for about 4 hours in 2AM,
I forgot to activate the "install from unknown source". after that everything run like magic.
FYI: I've done everything via adb shell via TWRP before the "what if" idea come to my head

Hello,
I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S6(64GB, Exynos) with Magisk-root. But I have the issue that it automatically uninstalls. And suddenly it’s unroot. Then I have to reinstall the Magisk-vXX.X.zip with TWRP (X.XX is the version, for example: 14.0 or 13.3). But after some hours it is uninstalled again and I lost the root access.
Then I have to repeat this...
Does someone have the same problem? Or does someone know how to fix this?
I don't want to reinstall the Magisk-package everytime i need root-access.. And I don't want to switch to another root because I like the Magisk-hide-function.
Or are there other roots with hide function?
(I don't want to install a Custom ROM!)
Thank you
Larry

I had the same problem with my Nexus 6P.
I was on stock ROM and stock kernel and it happened twice.
Now I'm on stock ROM and EX Kernel and problems seemed go away.

Tell me somthing about "stock kernel" and "EX Kernel" what is that and how can i install that? or change that?

I noticed losing root randomly and fixed it by going install patch boot img then you flash the boot img in recovery. So far it's been a day no root loss

Hi ! I have sale problem with my S8+ with custom rom and Custom kernel
Hello.
I am having the same issue with my S6. I have tried all of the advice from previous threads with regard to different versions of Magisk.. (Removing Busy Box / Not using the Magisk Hide feature... etc etc..). I have also been through as many extra options as I can think of, getting all of the "Update" patches from the other developers who have helped with the Magisk project.
Each time, I have run through all of the aditional scripts to make sure SU and Magisk have been completely removed prior, and then used Odin to do a recovery back to my Original ROM (a complete system backup image I previously saved).
The other interesting observation i have at the moment is that i can not get to the Log cat files to post them anywhere. I can see where they are supposed to be but the directory is empty "no files". I have even been as far as downloading one of the many "Mobile Forensic" software kits to try and see if there is anything wrong with my phone.
There is only one observation to report. It seems that after installing Magisk (even if you just install the main ROM and not the manager). Google play starts to download straight away... I am not sure what it is downloading as it doesn't ever seem to complete and all of my versions of the apps are up to date.
I hope I will be able to get some more usefull information for you soon (LogCat etc etc.). If any one has an answer or suggested options it would be good. I am particularly interested in getting the Busy Box feature to work with Root as I am working on an app for my job that needs both options (I work offshore and am trying to adapt a piece of Seismic QC software (unix based) to run on phones / tab's - Android).
I will sign up properly and start to follow the threads more closely.
Cheers... Andy

So long story short, there's no definitive solution to the problem. Im using a g920p with a custom kernel built by a genius dev, and i still lose root once a day.
Basically what it comes down to is modules. If you have zero modules, you'll have better luck... But that's not the point of magisk, so you need to be picky with modules. Use osmosis's busybox from the magisk repo, but other than that, install modules 1 at a time and see if it affects root.
Another tip: uninstall all updates of the "device maintenance" app, and find it in Google play and turn off automatic updates. Then go to device maintenance > battery > unmonitored apps and magisk manager to the list of unmonitored apps... Then go back the battery screen, battery usage > 3 dots in top right > optimize battery usage, and make sure magisk manager is not optimized... That should help some. (Note: some models don't have device maintenance, but you'll still have the "optimize battery usage" option some where.)
The Google play thing you're seeing is likely "instant apps" updating. I believe that should be unrelated to all this, but some aspects of instant apps is a mystery.
As for the logcat thing, i believe you're getting logcat confused with the magisk_debug.log located in /data ? If that's the case, you need to be using the beta version of magisk. Go to magisk and set the update channel to beta, you'll get a notification to update magisk, download it and flash. (Or if the recommended native install is an option, use that)
I recommend just using he normal 14.3 magisk... You'll have issues, but they will be predictable and easy to solve with a simple reboot. There's really no final solution for us unfortunately, just making it as stable as possible.
Lastly, it helps if once every once in a while you fully uninstall magisk with the uninstall.zip, reboot (you might not get a bootloop, in which case hold volume up +power+ home to boot into recovery), reflash magisk 14.3, and then wipe cache and art/davik.

Hello again.
So in response.
I followed the advice given... (just as a note previously the root issue would happen within an hour of restarting the device). I have been to the beta thread and read through all advice. Before jumping to the Magisk 14.3, I started with Magisk 14.2, there was a post recommending this as a critical update to Magisk 14.0.
I had no issues with this install (I had once again used my backup to revert the phone back to all original).
I then added any of the modules i wanted one at a time waiting over an hour before looking at adding any additional modules.
So far, I have not lost root and the phone is working as expected (alot better infact). I have all the Busybox modules +add-on's running, still no issues.
The upgrade to v14.2 seems to have fixed all for my uses.
Thanks to all for help and advice.

Glad everything is good! Sometimes magisk will get messed up, so just updating or even reinstalling will fix things.
Just keep in mind, its very likely you'll have problems again down the road... Samsung phones do a lot of weird stuff under the hood, and eventually symlinks will get broken, files deleted etc... So when that does happen, the best you can do is uninstall, reflash, update, and watch your modules.
Today updated to 15.3 and install James DSP root losed...When open magisk ask for installation reboot to recovery twrp install latest zip reboot open magisk it close it self and root lost again ?! Any advice from @topjohnwu
Do you guys mind posting a resource that shows how to root the S6 using magisk? I'm very rusty, last time I dealt with rooting was 8 years ago. Any help is appreciated. Thanks
I have Oneplus 3t with 7.1.1 android. Only issue I am having is that if I turn Notification light on, there is no option to turn battery full, charging, and low notifications off. With them on i cant use the light at all, because it will light up my whole bedroom. I red from online that Light Flow is the best app that could have sleep time without notifications etc. but when i tested it, it could not turn those charging lights off. Is there some way to bybass this? Never seen issue like this before. I am not sure is it just bug that disable option is missing or such. I have been using this feature since 2013 with nexus 4 so unbelivable its missing from this.
It seems custom rom is only way to fix the problem, but what is stable enough for daily use? If I could fix this issue on normal rom I could use it for years, because there is nothing that i am missing or what i would need more from my phone.
If you don't want to change ROM, you can use Xposed and GravityBox, unless you use Android Pay or other SafetyNet protected apps

Are you rooted with SuperSU or Magisk? If the latter, then you can download Xposed through the Magisk Manager, then install Xposed Manager and GravityBox app.
GB has the feature to control LED for all apps, unfortunately the free version is limited to 50 reboots (full version costs about 4 USD).

Is there any rom that would contain this automaticly without needing to do those things?
I have messed up my whole phone every time I have tried to update, because of the encryption. I am pretty sure that dirty flashing will mess up once again. Last time I tried magisk It did not work for some reason so i had to install supersu instead, because i allways need to root for adblock.
The second thing i hate in this phone is the constantly coming reminder that there is update avaible. With going to custom rom or such i could get rid of that problem too.

I don't think so and even there are such ROMs, and I wouldn't depend on them. Consider doing a clean flash and/or another ROM.

This is the nature of stock ROMs, unfortunately, but you should be able to hide this type of notification (long-press on it and disable the notification, but it's not always possible).

When i got phone and updated and rooted it i managed to get it not to recognise anything meaning soft bricked. Then time went by and i decided to update phone when I was told the root will stay, but then encryption once again soft bricked everything. Never seen **** like that on any phone so I did not know there is such thing. Just one step more to make things harder.
Now I am wondering does that encryption mess things up today when i will install paranoid 7.3.1. Atleast i put up fastboot etc. ready on my computer so it will be easier to fix.

No issues opening the app here... That means Magisk is perfectly capable of hiding from it, but you might have something else in your setup that triggers it.

but what exactly would trigger it? The link talks mostly about methods to hide magisk, I didn't find anything about what to do if magisk is working but the check fails. I've uninstalled titaniumbackup and rootbrowser. I've disable adb and developer options, I've deleted any folder or downloaded file related to magisk or those apps.
I'm running lineageos, would that be it? How would I go about it?
Could be any number of things... Your ROM might be one of them (more details about that?). It's pretty much impossible for me to do anything else but make educated guesses. The only thing I can say with relative certainty is that it shouldn't have anything to do with Magisk (since I can hide from the app just fine when testing).
You do pass SafetyNet, right? Could be that this is one of those apps that actually use SN.

It passes both checks.
I am running lineage OS 14.1 (Android 7.1.2) on a moto g4.
My main guess is that it's detecting something about your ROM. LOS is well known enough for apps to look for certain properties of it.

Yes, after searching around a bit more I found about why. I completely forgot that I had flashed supersu on my phone before flashing magisk. So I guess that's what the app was freaking out about. So I flashed a supersu removal and reflashed my ROM, now the app is working normally
Thanks for the help!

Hello everyone
After the last update of my banking app and wallet too

I have a fully updated stock 4/64 A2 with YouTube disabled (because I prefer NewPipe). Until a week or so ago, I did not have any problems keeping it disabled.
Now, it gets automatically enabled after an indeterminate amount (minutes? hours?) of time. I clear Storage for the app, disable it (whereby it is replaced by the factory version), and after some time it shows up in my app drawer and Play Store 'updates available' list again!
Can someone please help me exorcise the ghost from my machine?
Yeah this problem is annoying. Try disabling Google Partners Setup and Google One Time Init. So far it works for me

Edit: I just remembered you are waiting for LOS. Means you are most probably do not care about system partition modification. If that is the case, the suggestion above was right. Get root, then Delete it from /system/app
That is one persistent ghost. Are you rooted with Magisk? I could make a simple module that effectively makes the YouTube app directory under /system become empty

I'm completely stock, fully updated (no BL unlock or root, etc.). I was hoping to enjoy the benefits of the Android One program (no Xiaomi/Google bloatware, timely security updates) until [OFFICIAL] LOS comes out (mostly because I really like PrivacyGuard and AFWall+ (with root)).
For some reason, the official version of LOS16 didn't come out at all; I'm eagerly awaiting @rcstar6696 to whip up official LOS17.
In addition to Google Partners Setup and Google One Time Init, I have also disabled the two Android Setup apps. Let's hope this one does the trick. I'll report back if it doesn't.
EDIT: So that didn't work; the YouTube app is back again. The two Android Setup apps are showing as enabled as well.
Well at this point i recommend for you to unlock BL and whip Magisk to the stock ROM. Enable systemless hosts in magisk, then I will give you the detailed steps & files to put in the systemless hosts directory. I will get back to you as soon as i could
Having BL unlocked and Magisk installed won't hurt your Android One experience (i am using the same setup). However, updating over OTA would be a bit hassle as you will have to Restore Images from Magisk manager, update, and install Magisk to the other slot. A mild inconvenience, but you get to retain the original device's software and feel

Thanks for the offer to help :good:, but I think I'll mess around with the phone once stable Android 10 shows up for it, be it stock or LOS.
In the meantime, I have hidden the YouTube icon from my app drawer. Out of sight, out of mind. Take that, Google!
I use this method, woks without root
