Hi, do i need install systemless SuperSU always in twrp before install magisk v11 if I want use new MagiskSU instead??
If I try install Magisk v11 with superSU uninstalled and phone unrooted TWRP give me error and installation fails and if I install superSU and after Magisk v11, Magisk manager say system is using SuperSU instead MagiskSU. How do I install Magisk with MagiskSU??
I have Samsung Galaxy S4 with optimized LineageOS 14.1
Read the pinned Magisk thread...
Unroot again using unSu by osm0sis (Google) before flashing magisk
Installation Instructions
If you're already rooted with MagiskSU, Magisk phh's superuser (not original), or Official Systemless SuperSU
Install/upgrade Magisk Manager from Play Store
Install/upgrade Magisk as prompted in the application
Reboot and you're done!!
If you're not rooted, or something went wrong and you need a clean start
(Recommended) Restore your boot image back to stock
Download the latest Magisk zip file
If you choose to use SuperSU (only support Android 6.0+), first flash SuperSU in systemless mode
Flash Magisk zip
Reboot, and update the stub Magisk Manager to the latest from Play Store

You need to FULLY unflash superSU using the zip that the other person told you to google.

Yeah that button doesn't work for systemless superSU. It doesn't roll back your boot.IMG like it should.
Worst case scenario, flash the stock boot.img and then flash magisk.
Thanks guys, I installed Magisk v11.1 with MagiskSU working, Magisk Hide enabled but I have CTS mismatch error now in Safetynet test. I guess I cant do nothing about this error. Optimized LineageOS 14.1 and Samsung Galaxy S4
EDIT: Finally I passed the Safetynet test (no CTS mismatch error) disabling ADB interface in developer options. Thanks for Magisk, amazing.

By disabling ADB interface, do you mean the USB debugging part? for some reason I am still getting Safetynet error.

Thanks for this hint; got my build "passed" now appreciate it
What settings are you guys using in Magisk? I have disabled BusyBox, enabled Magisk Hide and systemless hosts. Superuser options are Access to "Apps and ADB" and Automatic Response set to prompt
I'm still having an issue installing Magisk on my phone with RAMROM V10. It gives me an ERROR 1.
It has been suggested that I should re-flash my boot.img with TWRP following the instruction:
Place your BOOT.img on your sdcard
Reboot into TWRP recovery
Tap "Install"
In the bottom right corner tap "Install Image"
Select your BOOT.img
Select the Boot Partition, then swipe to confirm Flash
However, when I follow the step, my TWRP cannot seem to find BOOT.IMG in my SD Card (I know it is there). What did I do wrong? Can anyone help?
i think the .img thingy is only for twrp.img files. You have to use another method to place your boot image like. -> make a backup of only your boot image via twrp backup function. Then duplicate that backup folder of twrp containing only the newly just regernated files, in the twrp folder. Then replace the su-modified boot file there with your original boot file, you obviously have to rename your boot image to fit the right name. (eg. with the logo image -> logo.bin changes to logo.emmc.win -> etc;.) Then use the twrp restore function to restore your "original" boot logo.
Hierarchy folder view would be like:
TWRP->folder 1 (original folder, in case something goes wrong)-> boot file and others
->folder 2 (our modified folder)-> files

FIY: Flashing regular boot.img files works just fine with "Install Image" in TWRP (of course, YMMV, depending on your device).
Hi to all
I have rooted OP3T and every time when I install new update, BETA small or full version zip file, I need again to install stock.zip from boatloader , then again, install TWRP and Super Su.
I hear that with Magisk I can easy install any update without lost TWRP and Root. I have flash Magisk and install from Google Store Magisk Manager.
So my question is how to install new update with Magisk and dont lost TWRP and Root?
Please tell me step by step
thx a lot for your answers
Magisk doesn't touch the recovery. And you'll still have to flash the Magisk zip since the boot image is updated whenever you update your system (Magisk modifies the boot image).
What does stay after an update (as long as you don't wipe /data) is any Magisk modules that you have installed. If you have a bunch of modules that change build.prop values, debloat system apps, change screen density, replaces system UI sounds, etc, you won't have to do those changes again after an update. They are found in the Magisk image in /data and will be loaded by Magisk at boot.
Even if you've wiped /data, it's just a matter of flashing the Magisk and module zips in TWRP after updating your system. No tedious manual editing of build.prop or deleting apps, etc. It literally takes seconds...
If you have issues with loosing TWRP after an update, you can easily fix that, right after updating. Just keep a copy of the recovery image on your device and flash it in TWRP.
after reformatting my device and flashing stock rom through twrp, i went and download the zip file with magisk manager latest version and then i fully unroot my device with full unroot of supersu. after i rebooted to twrp, i installed magisk v14 zip and this is what it tells me after i flashed it.

The boot image is a part of your device's software. It's what Magisk modifies to do it's thing. If the installer can't recognise it, there's not much you can do... Except providing logs, that is.
The update binary is a part of the installer. It's the script that modifies the boot image to install Magisk on your device.
When you have these kind of errors, save the recovery log after flashing the zip (Advanced -> Copy Log) and post that (attach it or use Pastebin or similar, don't copy it directly to the post). It's so much easier to troubleshoot with proper logs.
First thing you can try is to use the latest beta and see if that works.

I guess you can't attach a file, being so new... You can upload it somewhere and provide the link or use Pastebin and provide the link/id for it.

That was a bit of a shady file sharing site. Anyway...
Your installed TWRP is pretty old. That might have something to do about it. Update TWRP, or you could try letting the Magisk Manager patch the boot image and then flash the patched image with TWRP. Installation instructions in the release thread.

Hm.... It might be that your TWRP is to old, but it should be the same procedure as when flashing a zip file except you switch to image flashing by pressing the "Image" button after going to the "Install" screen.
If that doesn't work, use fastboot (or whatever is available for your device).
Code:
fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img

So I did what u told me and flashed the boot.img succesfully. Now after flashing that, I flashed v14 and still error in executing update binary. Same with 14.5. But this time after I saw that, I rebooted my device and found magisk manager on my phone. It says v14 installed. Is it installed already?

Yes, if you flash the patched boot image you don't have to do anything else. The Magisk Manager has already taken care of everything.
If you want v14.5 beta, you should now be able to change the update channel (in Manager settings) to beta and update. Just as a FYI, you could have done this already when patching the boot image.
Sounds like it's working now, or? Can you install modules?

I installed an app and gave it root permission. It looks like it's working. However the module part, I'm still unsure. When I try to add modules, the screen took me in storage. Looks like it requires me to import something? Where can I download modules?

First of all, don't even mention that piece of piracy software on xda. It's used to steal from developers and is not allowed here.
In the "Modules" part you can manually install modules that you've previously downloaded. If you want to install directly from the Magisk repo, you (unsurprisingly ) go to the "Downloads" section of the Manager. If you can't see "Downloads", make sure the Manager has internet access.

Sir, did you manage to install? when i tried to install log is failed.
I failed similar times to root my phone with twrp 3.2.xx and 3.1.xx. I used Odin 3 v3.13.1.
Any ideas or thread links for the young padawan?
I appreciate your advice masters :good:
Using Odin Flash TWRP latest from the note 8 TWRP thread here on XDA, one on their site is not latest.
Install magisk manager app from play store.
Download magisk from the app.
Reboot to TWRP and flash the magisk file just downloaded.
Reboot and check magisk manager for root and hide.
Should be good.
Nope. Not working and still ends in a bootloop and it's unable to mount the internal storage.
Something went wrong, so.. my phone is unable to boot the system after that!
The issue is the version of TWRP and Oreo, its not yet compatible on this device, it needs porting over
If you want MAGISK you need to do it all in one hit.
Flash TWRP
Select Read Only Option.
Format Data
Reboot Recovery
Flash the DM Verify Encrypt file
Reboot Recovery, You could be able to flash files wihtout a Data mount error.
Now flash the files you want, i..e MAGISK
Once you have booted the ROM and return back to TWRP you are unable to mount Data.
This can cause various issue when flashing files
Funny you.. How can I format if the internal storage isn't able to mount?
"Select Read Only Option.
Format Data" <-- seems like a contradiction to format a missing
partition.
I think we need to wait until someone will port the twrp for Oreo. cheerio!
Because it needs to be done when you first flash it.
Once you have flash Oreo, Then TWRP, You boot into TWRP and format. You then Flash the DM Verify.
Data is accessible, its empty but accessible, Flashing any files like MAGISK work without any errors.
I have it all working on mine without any issues, I do know if i need to flash any additional files it wont work properly due to Data no longer mountable.
There is a updated version of TWRP that fixes this, but its not been ported over.
Hi
I installed LineageOS 20 on OnePlus 9 with the instructions on official wiki. Then I root my phone with Magisk. I install Magisk by sideloading the Magisk ZIP file and then install the apk as it's been explained in this video. Now I can't update the OS with updater in system settings. I find this guide that explained I need to uninstall and restore images in magisk then update my phone and reinsatall magisk before reboot. But magisk didn't create a backup during installation.
I followed this instructions to fix magisk stock backup does not exist
I create a backup with this guide and lineageos boot.img file and I can now restore images in magisk but I get the same error when trying to install the updates. I noticed that there is also dtbo in backup function and I did the same thing for backing up dtbo.img and it doesn't solve the problem. Is there anything I'm missimg. Should I use vendor-boot.img instead of boot.img?

I just learned that Magisk doesn't work after an OTA update. What I do is I normally update, uninstall Magisk, boot into Lineage Recovery, sideload the Magisk .zip file via ADB, reboot, and finish setting up Magisk through the app. There are other ways to do this, but this method works well and doesn't need anything special. Works for me!
Alteratively, look here.

I was exactly looking for this for my SM-T290, which also runs LineageOS 20. I think it is the most easy to deinstall Magisk root from the Magisk Manager, apply the update and then reinstall it. I think this also works with TWRP???

I'm installing an update right now. I would imagine it works with TWRP as well, but I only recently started using it.
I realize that this may be a late reply, however, there is no need to do any of these convoluted processes.
Here is what I do, flash the Magisk as a .zip in Lineage recovery once and set everything up. Once the Magisk install is working you can apply OTA updates normally without Magisk and root being removed. On my OnePlus 7 Pro which is an A/B device I just install the OTA and hit reboot with Magisk seamlessly persisting and nothing else being required to preserve or reinstall it. The reason that this works is because the Magisk.zip installs an addons.d script which automatically runs after OTA updates and takes care of Magisk for you.
I installed many Lineage OS 20 OTAs and I never had to touch Magisk at all, it is always installed and working with no intervention whatsoever. Keep in mind that this will only work on A/B devices with Lineage recovery (which you should all be using anyway).

Well, I came to the fact I have a problem with TWRP. It uses OpenRecoveryScript for OTA updates and should also run addon.d scripts after it (Magisk uses this to survive an OTA). The only problem is that the scripts should run after the OTA flash, but for me, it doesn't. So I need to manually reflash Magisk and Gapps after installing an update. My data is encrypted, but I edited the addon.d script to flash the ZIP from the external SD card.
