How do I update Magisk? In the main topic it is advised to update Magisk using the Manager but that's not possible. I'm currently having Magisk Manager 6.0.1 with Magisk 17.3 installed. The Manager only asks to update itself to version 6.1. But that version directly crashes on start because there is no backwards compatibility with with Magisk < 18. Therefor I want to update using TWRP. My question is now if I can simply install the new version without uninstalling Magisk? Or do I have to uninstall Magisk first? If the latter, is it enough to restore the original bootloader or do I have to uninstall Magisk completely (and loosing all data in the progress)?
Thanks for your help.
Same question here, somebody please look into this.
Hi Devs, Community and all of Android's guy.
I have a OP5T and I have received the OTA update some weeks ago. I have already installed Magisk Manager by a Year, and in this I saw many updates. I generally delete all modules and the complete Magisk. After that, I update the System with the OTA and then install Magisk again (I also prefer it for a matter of order and cleanliness). Today, I have decided to unistall Magisk but both through the manager and through the file unistaller.zip it fails with a bootloop after the flash.
Has anyone a solution for this problem?
Or Is there a way for this version to install the ota without uninstalling magisk?
Thanks a lot!
same problem here
I have Magisk 20.1 (Magisk Manager 7.5.1) currently installed on my Samsung Galaxy Tab A (2016). While initially installing it was not as straight forward as it might have been (install doc could use some work; I think it's written for folks with more familiarity with android devices on a day to day basis than those who root a phone maybe once every few years); I installed Magisk and it's been working fine.
However, this morning I had a notification that I needed to run Magisk setup. I told it to do so; it downloaded something; rebooted the tablet ( which wasn't warned of in the notification); and on coming back up ran Busybox so I'm assuming that was the setup. Going into Magisk Manager, however, I got the same notification over again. So I let it update again with the same result.
This time I told it to cancel the update/setup. I then tried to manually do the update from 20.1 (20100) to 20.3 (20300, latest available version). Update proceeded normally until repacking; which failed. Since Magisk is already installed and working (with several root level apps) on this phone; I can't see where this could be the "wrong image problem" which seems to be the most prevalent root cause of this kind of error. Unfortunately the update as distributed doesn't say anything about *why* it can't repack the image; so the message doesn't help us ordinary folks in debugging.
Any ideas as to what the actual issue is?
Android info:
Version 8.1.0
Kernel 3.18.14-1570595
Build M1AJQ.T580UEU4CSC1
Note: Busybox had an update I believe came out sometime yesterday (saw notification it updated successfully). Could it be that something in the Busybox update broke the Magisk update process?
Hi, my device currently on China ROM v2.20 and rooted with Magisk. Is it safe to OTA update to China ROM v2.21?
When I read about Magisk I found it:
"Magisk works systemless-ly, and it doesn’t modify or alter your system partition. If you want to install a banking application or if you want to install official OTA updates, and much more. You can install the OTA updates without losing the root privileges, and that is everyone need. They don’t need to root again and again."
Anyone dare to try?
Hi everyone!
It's been about a year and a half since I first installed Magisk on my phone with TWRP and considering that I now noticed I'm getting SafenityNet API error, I wanted to update my Magisk to the latest version and install the Universal SafetyNet module as well to fix this issue.
I just have some questions regarding this:
I'm running Magisk Manager 7.5.1 & Magisk 20.4 repacked and with Magisk Hide, how can I update from Magisk 20.4 to Magisk 23? My phone shows 22.1 as the latest.
Before updating do I need to restore Magisk Manager to the original package and app names?
Will updating Magisk affect my already installed Modules or will they stay in effect?
I'm using a Xiaomi with Android 9 Pie and MIUI Global 11.0.5.0
Thanks in advance.

Maybe let Magisk Manager take you to v22.1, then you'll be one step away from v23.0 and hopefully at some point it becomes available. If upgrading to v22.1 succeeds you'll end up with one app that is Magisk SU and the manager all in one. I mention this in case you're wondering why Magisk Manager disappeared.
I don't understand what you mean about restoring Magisk Manager "to the original package and app names" but your modules should still work after upgrading. Worst case would be a module that didn't keep up with Magisk and isn't supported anymore.

Yes, you do. See the v22.0 release notes:

Ahh, the question makes sense now. I've never needed to conceal Magisk.

Thanks to both of you for the clarifications.
I will unhide/restore the manager and will install 22 before going onward to 23.
