Magisk is not installed

Magisk is not installed - Magisk

Heloo and sorry in advance if i'm making a thread that has allready been made
I have followed all the steps from the Installation Instructions (i do not have a rooted device or a custom room installed)
After flashing the patched boot image trough adb,rebooting then opening hte magisk manager i still see the Magisk is not installed
Also i am a beginer so i may not know how to post logs or where to get them
If any other information is needed please let me know

You don't use ADB to flash a boot image. Depending on your device it'll be fastboot, Odin, or whatever's applicable. What is your device?

Ok... Don't know anything about that device... :laugh:
Fastboot is probably the way to go:
Code:
fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
Have you used the above command?
Useful information to provide would be an installation log from when you patch the image in the Manager (there's a button for it in the Manager flashing window), what you do to flash the image, and the output when flashing.

Is your bootloader unlocked? It needs to be... Keep in mind that doing that will likely wipe your device.

Hiya, Is/would Magisk work on the Essential Android P? My bootloader is unlocked, but I keep getting the Failed boot image is signed with AVB 1.0 message
Fixed: Just had to read a bit closer.

You have to run the right adb command for your device to unlock the bootloader after enabling in dev options something like
fastboot oem unlock

MAGISK 16 - Unable to repack boot image

MAGISK V15.3 installed on Samsung TAB S2 SM-T810.

Any Idea ?
Thanks for your help

I have Samsung S5 g900w8
Identical problem.. my log file is exactly the same.

Try uninstalling v15.3 first and then install v16.0 clean.

I have uninstalled magisk 15.3, then installed magisk 16.0 with twrp.
Its perfect !
Thanks for your help

I did the Uninstaller /clean install method, which did update me to v16. Unfortunately now it fails safety net and apps can all detect root.

It seems like some users have had issues with MagiskHide after updating to v16... Try toggling MagiskHide off and on. If that still doesn't work, navigate to /data/property and delete the file persist.magisk.hide, if it exists.
Uploading a Magisk debug log would also be useful.

I've tried toggling everything off /on. I've Uninstalled and reinstalled twice.
The persist.magisk.hide file wasn't there.
I'm not sure how to install the beta version in order to get the debug log.
If I just go back to an older version, will this fix?

No it won't (well, maybe for you, but the underlying issue won't be).
Please at least provide the debug log before reverting. Make sure you've done a SafetyNet check before saving the log.

First, thank you for all of your help. I'm still not able to get a debug log. I have toggled 2 Beta And pressed install but it's still just downloads the same file version 16 and won't install internally (see above post). When I install with TW RP it messed up the boot partition and I had to restore from backup. The next attempt it seemed to install fine but there is no log file in the ADB directory. How can I tell if the beta is installed?
I wish I hadn't tried to update. The previous version worked great and I only updated because it was nagging me 200 times a day and I have a hard time not updating to the newest version of things.
Just in case something helps here's a timeline of what I tried.
-direct install from previous version several times (failed with unable to repack boot image error)
-install via zip in TWRP - success - fails safety net + hide doesn't work
-toggle all settings on/off etc. (side note... sometimes settings don't "stick". like I toggle the hosts file setting on or off and then close the menu and when I open it it's back on/off as if I hadn't changed it)
-try just reinstalling - boots right to odin/download mode
-restore boot partition from backup - boots fine, still fails safety net
-try "core function only" mode - magisk asks to reboot manually... try this and it comes up in regular mode... toggle the switch again and reboot and it seems to work. I get SU access but still fails safety net.
-try uninstalling, reboot, re-install via TWRP.. no luck.. try formatting system partition and restore from backup.. reinstall magisk.. same result.
-toggle to beta update path, click install. Not sure what is supposed to happen here. It appears to download exactly the same file as the non beta. It won't install direct and when I flash with TWRP it doesn't appear different. Still fails safet net. When I browse to data/adb there are no log files.
I grabbed the 15.2 version and installed it. Everything seems to work now.
Thanks again for your help. Maybe I'll try again on the next update.

You saved my phone, i have been trying 20 different ways in 30 hours and finally i got into TWRP.
Used: G390FXXU2BRJ1 Firmware from sammobile.

I also have Xcover 4 on 8.1 oreo and I have the same problems. Patching boot causes no signal range, TWRP is missing for this model, and installing this from a thread causes a message like the user of Doc_Emmett_Brown. At Nougat, I had root patching boot.iso without any problems, and here Oreo are the problems. Please help.

Hi! Can you explain how do you get root at Nougat on Xcover4? I have this one and I can't find any working solution.

Read my previous posts to get magisk on your xcover.
