Don't understand how to update Magisk Manager - Magisk

When I opened Magisk Manager today it prompted me with this message:
Install Magisk Manager
Do you want to install MagiskManager-v5.4.0.apk now?
With the options "NO THANKS" and "INSTALL".
Problem is if I select "Install" nothing happens. Am I doing something wrong?

Same here I am wondering what's up.

Same here too. Update not work. Have install manuel and its working.

That is because of a bug in the Manager v5.3.0. Download the current Manager from the release thread and install manually.

After a reboot the update worked just fine. Go figure...

I have a couple of devices, update worked fine for one device, never worked for the other, even after reboot... Have to do it manually. Yes go figure
EDIT: I suspected the new APK was already downloaded somewhere on the device, and it was indeed.
Located at the root of internal storage (usually under /storage/emulated/0) I found MagiskManager-v5.4.0.zip. Launched installation and all was set Might help others facing the same issue, without having to manually download the APK.

Happened to me as well, it turned out Magisk Manager didn't have storage permission granted, i did that and it worked.

Open apps-> magisk-> permissions and tick on storage, make sure its turned on.

That totally fixed it!
Many thanks!

Fixed a pain!
Thanks people.

I can't update magisk to v.15 please help.

That's very little to go on... Are you asking for help? In that case you need to provide a lot more details and a bunch of logs.

My hope was it is a known problem and there's a solution for that.
I will try another Rom. Perhaps it will work then. But thanks for your input.

[Q] How to install apks?

Hi,
I'm unable to install sideloaded APKs. This is what I did:
1. Ran the 'NookColor Tools'; checked 'Allow Non-Market Apps'; and rebooted.
2. Copied the apk to SD card (in a new folder My Files > 'Apps').
3. Installed Astro File Manager from the Market.
4. Navigated to the location of the APK; clicked on it; selected 'Open App Manager'.
5. Clicked 'Install'.
Says 'Install Blocked - Installation of downloaded apks is not supported'
I must be doing something wrong, any help would be great!
Thanks
Try unchecking the box for Allow Non-Market Install, reboot, check box, reboot, should work now. I had to do that after autonootering.
Good luck!

I'm unable to uncheck that either. After unchecking, if I re-open NookColor tools either instantly or after rebooting, it remains checked! But still, apps won't install.
I'm in the same boat .. no matter what i can't get that box to stay unchecked
I had the same problem, try unchecking, rebooting, I think it will be checked again then when it reboots just uncheck and recheck it (no reboot). That worked for me. I'm glad too cuz I though I was going to have to go through all that adb bs lol.

I don't know why this worked but i successfully installed the latest market app from my sd card using the above mentioned process. Firmware is 1.0.1 autonootered. Thanks for the help!

or us a file manager astro or file manager of your choice i believe
I had similar issues after using autonooter from 12/25. After playing with nook tools I gave up unsuccessfully. After a reboot I noticed it was working. For the life of me I can not figure out if the reboot did it or something else but it is working now. I was ready to go back to the old method of manually editing the database using adb.

You shouldn't, I've rebooted a few times and have had no problems.
Here's what i've done to get around this.
Appmonster on my phone. Download and backup the app on my phone.
copy the app onto nook somehow, i use dropbox.
then i use rootexplorer to copy, change from r/o to r/w, paste the apk, and then install it.
So far working well, trillian, amazon, and google reader. Not sure about the potential of installing versions of apps that could brick or screw up the nook.
Laptop not Recognizing Nook after installing ADB
I tried the boot over and over, but it did not work. So I followed the instructions on installing SDK and ADB and was able to install applications. This meant replacing the Nook Driver. I was not able to install the files via the USB cable, but used ADB wireless instead.
Now I can no longer see the Nook when I connect it by USB to my laptop, running Windows 7. I used to see the Nook as my J drive and the SD Card as the K.
I plugged it into my Desktop and and able to see both.
I am guessing this has something to do with the Driver on the Laptop (which I replaced following the instructions in the video). Is there a way that I can get my laptop to see the Nook and the SD card again without losing the ability to install files?
Thanks

Issue with app's ?

Hi.
I have issues here.
I would install market and Astro filemanager.
But I got info that they already was installed.
I cannot see them in the Application->Manage applications
It tells me, that " you don't have any third party apps installed".
I had the idea, that the GT540 is rooted, but obvciously not, as I cannot install apk's using the adb command.
Beside this, I also have this:
process com.android.vending issue.
What can I do?

You've missed the forum, this should be in General or Themes and Apps forum.
You haven't stated what ROM are you using.
Are you trying to install Astro via Play Store or from apk on sd card?
com.android.vending is a Google Play Store app, has it updated itself or is still Market?

Sorry for posting a wrong place :-(
I'm not sure what ROM I'm using. It's the dafault one, as it has not been modified, but Don't know. How to see it?.
It's an LG GT540 I use.
Iwould install it from apk on SD card, but due to a reason I don't know, I cannot get adb to work.
It tells me, that device not found.
I have formatted the SD card with FAT32, and now I cannot see the system path.
Bot worth to mention, I'm a newcomer here on Android :crying:

For recovery and fastboot look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1224747
I'm not sure what puzzled me, but now all is working.
I did an factory reset -one of an enormeus lot-, and after all worked again.
Now I can go to Market and do all what I want.
Thanks for the link to recovery and fastboot.
Will save the link for future use.
So for now, thanks for all your comments and great infos.
They are much appreciated

(Updated 3/sept)*****solved!***** CAMERA SAVE TO SD CARD WITH GOOGLE EDITION ROMS!!!!

Updated XposedInstaller 3/sept
As you all want to save your photos/videos to your external card (like I wanted), I give you my solution for this problem.
The solution is based on these two threads:
- Pictures2SD: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2408880
- XposedFramework: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574401
Thanks to davisNT and rovo89
After some research here is my short method to make your Google Edition saving photos/videos to external card:
1. I attached two files, you have to download them to your phone
2. Install de.robv.android.xposed.installer_v18_e88d8b.apk
3. Launch the Xposed Installer, give it root, and click on "Install/Update"
4. Reboot your phone
5. Install Pictures2SD_102.apk
6. Launch Xposed Installer, go to the modules page and select the checkbox for Picture2SD
7. Reboot and it's done
I hope I don't forget anything, and I'm sure you can do it yourself if I missed something.

I get the following when trying to open "Modules" cannot read/data/xposed/modules.whitelist

Did you installed Xposed properly inside the installer? (the big button at the center with long text...)

Not sure why, but my phone will not boot after the install. I installed per directions and did use the large button. I rebooted and it is now not getting past the Google screen. I will wipe phone and try again. Anybody else tried this out yet?
I am sure I did something wrong, not sure what it is.
Wait a minute, it finally rebooted after 5 tries. I will see what happens now.
Nope, still has same error and will not load P2SD
Thanks for sharing. However this is not your work, so I think in your OP you should give credit to the people that created Pictures2SD and Xposed Framework.

I didn't say it is my work. I created this thread with my own words without copying anything, because a lot of people wrote in Galaxy S4 sections that Google Edition ROMs haven't got this function and cannot be solved. I also needed this, and made a research, and it was not fast. And because those threads you mentioned are far from the Galaxy S4 sections, and not completely understandable seperately for almost everybody, I finalized and simplified here as the real solution. Cheers!

I just edited the system folder to add media r/w permissions and it works that way. Thanks for taking the time to work on this. It is easier than editing the system folder (and probably safer), but I have done the edit and will just use it that way.
everything went smooth
open up camera app and its asking me to install an SD card into phone before using camera.... i have a 64Gb card...
formatted SD card as well.. still no change
Anyone solved this challenge for CM10.2?
Would love to use CM10.2 for a while but the lack of pic to SD makes that a bigger pain than it should be.

Unable to automatically update

Hello!
On my Nexus 6P running LineageOS, I'm unable to automatically update Magisk. It finds the update and gives me a notification but nothing happens when I click install.
On my OnePlus One, also running LineageOS, it's all done automatically just fine.
Am I doing something wrong or is this something that has to be fixed upstream?
Make sure that the Manager has storage permission. You might have to grant it manually.

I feel Magisk should ask for permissions instead of just not working though.

Help! Hiding Magisk Manager by repacking, process hung. What do I do?

I was having trouble installing something that was able to still see my phone was rooted. I figured maybe hiding Magisk and the Manager would help. But now it's just been sitting for several minutes with the spinning circle hourglass (or whatever it's called these days... god I deel old lol).
Should I force quit Magisk Manager? What should I do here? I'm scared to do the wrong thing and brick my phone! Please help! Thank you!
You can force quit it, it won't cause any major issues. You'll likely end up with a nonfunctioning Manager though, so if the stub (the app without a proper icon named "Manager", or whatever name you have it when hiding) doesn't work you'll have to uninstall it, and likely also the regular Magisk Manager and install the apk again.

okay I just swiped the app up to quit it and when I tried launching it again it showed that it was denied super user rights and then quit. then I launched the app that I found that I renamed it as and it seems to be working there. now the Magisk Manager app is actually not showing on my phone anymore, just managerMgsk (the babe i used). so I guess it worked renaming it but just got stuck at the end of the process or something. thanks again!
