Bootloop after magisk update - Magisk

This morning, waking up I recieved the notification that a new magisk manager is available. I installed it as usual, except this time my device suddenly was not rooted anymore.
Si I press the install magisk button that pops up, it flashes magisk, and BAM. Phone restarts, and boot loop.
The phone's a OP5, android 7.1.1, and I had to do a factory reset twice before it would boot. Even using the magisk uninstaller did yield no results.
How come the phone suddenly got unrooted? Can I safely root it again now? Why wouldn't the first factory reset get it out of boot loop?
How can I prevent data loss in the future? Help?
Update 1 - Fun fact: After my two factory resets (what it took to reboot, since the uninstaller wouldn't flash right, fml.) and setting the phone up right now, my phone IS rooted with magisk 17.
So the flashing of magisk v17 worked. It just ****ed my phone so hard it needed a wipe to comprehend the immense power of the Magisk! (Yes, this is a slightly salty hyperbole, fix your updates!)
Update 2 - TimMayle managed to run the uninstaller and re-flashing magisk v17 on TWRP, try this if you have the issue. (While the uninstaller wouldn't work for me, that might be a device specific issue.)

Hello,
I was on Magisk 16 and probably Manager 5.8.3.
Magisk 17 wouldn't flash from Magisk Manager. So I did flahs it in TWRP.
Then I was in bootloop.
In TWRPm I flashed magisk uninstaller to remove it completely and installed Magisk 17.
Bootloop Gone !

Update 3 - Thanks void74 for another potential procedure that might fix your issues.
void74 said:
I faced this problem too this morning.
I have a Redmi Note 5 with AOSiP ROM, I don't know if it's the right way to do it, but I solved the bootloop problem this way:
- volume up and then boot to TWRP
- copied magisk uninstall to phone memory
- installed magisk uninstall
- rebooted in fastboot/bootloader mode
- flashed original boot.img extracted from stock image zip file ("fastboot flash boot boot.img")
- rebooted to TWRP
- installed magisk 17.0 zip file
- rebooted to system, all OK!
Only problem is that I lost previous magisk configuration, but it's a snap to reconfigure it!
I hope I have saved some lives.

Update 4 - Thank you Shampinger for giving ups a Linux-specific variation on the steps to follow.
Shampinger said:
Same issue here on Redmi Note 5 global (whyred). Thanks to this thread I could fix it.
Steps (on Linux):
1. boot into fastboot (vol down + power)
2. from folder with your twrp zip run:
Code:
sudo fastboot boot twrp-x.x.x-x-whyred.img
there might be an easier way to boot into recovery without having to use the zip on your computer that I don't know about
3. copy Magisk uninstaller and Magisk v17 to phone (if not already there)
4. flash uninstaller zip
5. go back and flash Magisk v17 zip
6. reboot

Update 5 - While a fixed version is being perfected, Mangraviti summed up what you should do:
Mangraviti said:
Here is what to do, if you HAVE NOT installed the new version:
1) Do not update via Magisk Manager.
2) Do not update via TWRP using the zip you can download via Magisk Manager.
3) Uninstall Magisk using Magisk uninstaller (ZIP).
4) Boot to Android.
5) Reboot to TWRP
6) Install V17 ZIP via TWRP and boot to Android.
If you HAVE INSTALLED and got a bootloop:
1) Download the uninstaller ZIP.
2) Enter TWRP during the bootloop.
3) Uninstall using the uninstaller ZIP.
4) Boot to Android.
5) Download V17.
6) Reboot to TWRP and flash the V17.
7) Boot to Android it it should be working.

Exactly the same issue. The phone lost root and is now stuck in bootloop. How to recover? Any hopes of saving the data?
Please throw some light....

Same issue here... bootloop after update. I wish I didn't update.
Oreo 8 on Huawei Nexus 6p.

Same here on HTC U11 with Lineage 15.1
Feels bad man.
How do I fix?

I fixed bootloop by uninstalling magisk with magisk uninstaller. After that I installed v16

Is this when updating from Magisk v16.0, Manager v5.8.3? What happens if you uninstall and install v17.0 clean?

Same here (bootloop) after update from 16 to 17. I used unnistaller but ended in fastboot after reboot :laugh:
Had to install rom and v17 to work.
Redmi Note 5 Pro MIUI 9.6.4.0 Global

Same thing on s7 with Android 7.0 , now I'm resetting the device.

Fun fact: After my two factory resets (what it took to reboot, since the uninstaller wouldn't flash right, fml.) and setting the phone up right now, my phone IS rooted with magisk 17.

I upgraded Magisk Manager and now my phone is unrooted. Fortunately I came here to read what's wrong, so I didn't flash Magisk 17.
But now I am unrooted.
What can I do?

Okay, so this is guesswork at best, but if you don't wish to flash v17, what I would suggest is uninstalling the latest magisk manager, and going to your magisk folder to install the .apk of the version before.
See if you're still unrooted, then if you are, find magisk v16 either in your magisk folder, or from a download link, and flash that back on for the time being.

Yes. That's exactly what I did. OK. So I now ran magisk uninstaller, booted fine. Then installed clean v17.0 and it works now - no bootloop. Many thanks!

I am having the same problem with magisk manager 5.8.3 + v16 zip. After upgrading to v5.9.0(138) all my previous setting all gone. Plus i can install v17 zip at all.
This is on HTC U11+ with android v8.0

Same for me had bootloop on android 7.1.2 i was on magisk 16.0 stable. I got notification before an hour. I upadted the apk and it showed magisk not installed. So i downloaded the zip and flashed 17.0 stable zip and had bootloop. So i just cleaned cache and dalvik now phone is started and root and magsik working. But now wifi is unable to switch on

Also got a bootloop on my Samsung Galaxy S4 jfltexx running Resurrection Remix v5.8.5 (Android 7.1.2). Fortunately I took a TWRP backup before this upgrade and was able to restore it.
But I'm also without root due to Magisk Manager not offering any option other than to install Magisk-v17.0(17000).zip
Some say use the uninstaller or uninstaller.zip but where can I find this? Magisk Manager says "Magisk is not installed" and there's no uninstall-like option to be found.

In "Downloads" you have "Latest uninstaller" go to recovery and flash the zip, that should uninstall magisk.

Check the first post, I quoted someone flashing the uninstaller and flashing v17 again and it worked. Maybe that'll work for you?
I do suggest doing a total backup in twrp first though. Just in case.

Magisk Boot Loop Nexus 6P

Just upgraded magisk to 11 this morning from inside the app and it has been stuck rebooting the past ten minutes. Can anyone help?
can still get into Twrp though if that helps figure out solutions.
I have similar problem, on a OnePlus 3 with a CM13 based Rom.
After the update from 10.2 to 11 the start of Android never finished.
Temporary solution (until I have more time to produce a real bug report or someone else finds the problem) uninstalled Magisk via Uninstaller zip in TWRP and reinstalled Magisk 10.2 there.
Same problem for me on Pure Nexus when installing v11. Stuck on boot screen.
Had to flash Magisk Uninstaller, and re-flash Magisk 11 through TWRP. Seems to work, until I installed ViperFX (through Magisk) and it asked me to reboot - now I'm back in a boot loop.
Going to roll back to Magisk 10.2 until something gets fixed.
Flash the uninstaller script in TWRP and try again. And even if it seems to be bootlooping, let it sit. Mine stayed on boot animation for a good 5-10 minutes the first boot up on v11. If it still seems to be looping, try flashing a clean boot image and start over.
Nexus 6, Pure Nexus 01/21.
Okay, so I finally got it to boot doing the following:
1) Factory Reset
3) Format System
2) Reflash Rom, GApps
3) Boot into Rom
4) Reboot, flash Magisk
5) Boot back into Rom
I think the issue is if you are coming from 10.2 (or earlier) you need to remove SU before flashing magisk. Magisk has SU built in (though should work with SuperSU or phh's for now) but I think there is some issue when upgrading. Maybe try flashing your preferred SU package after you reboot into the rom after Magisk is installed.

Hehe, well, I only just found out about that before I nuked my phone.
OK for me the boot problem was fixed by restoring the boot partition from a backup without Magisk installed and the flashing version 11.
So the problem is mostly cased by something in the boot partition.
If you don't have a backup of the boot partition. Flashing the boot image of the ROM or the hole ROM should fix this.
At lest for me no need to reset everything.
Did a full unroot of supersu, told it to restore the backed up boot image, booted immediately into recovery, flashed magisk and magisksu stuck no problem. I like this all in one solution v11 brings.
It's viper4android now causing the bootloop... I flashed clean with magisk 11.1

And you've Viper4android installed and it's functioning?
I only heard about Magisk and its rooting abilities yesterday. So far I have always used SuperSU, but now I'd like to migrate. Now and again I'd like to use my banking app, and it's not allowed on rooted phones. I've tried rootcloak before, but for some reason I can't remember, didn't really work. So I would love it if this solution did.
However, when I install suhide required, it bootloops. So I reflash the whole system, bootloop remains. Only when I flash rm-suhide it does actually boot. But now I have to remove SuperSU and flash root again using the magisk.zip. When I do, it bootloops. Go figure.
I'm on the angler February update N4F26O.
Haven't tried the adb shell solution yet, but just about everything else.

Verified working with an extra step: after you reboot, remove SuperSU if you have it (app drawer, drag to uninstall). This seems to default the SU method to the MagiskSU, which allows it to pass safety net as well. Before I uninstalled SuperSU, I was getting safetynet fail CTS mismatches.
Also, after doing the quoted method, it did take a little longer than usual booting, give it 5 min at least.
Lastly, Viper4Arise doesn't work (driver won't load), probably because of something related to the new magisk, or because it preferred SuperSU.
Thanks

Firstly unroot the SuperSU, flash the latest Magisk zip file v11.1. You don't need the suhide as the latest version of Magisk already has the necessary files to root your device. Hope this helped you
At the risk of sounding dumb, I couldn't figure out how to decrypt my data partition. I don't know if what I did made any actual difference but I did a nandroid of my data, rebooted twrp, restored data, entered the adb command, then installed magisk. Reboot to system, all set!
Hope this helps someone out.

I'm getting a constant boot loop (stuck at boot animation) each time I try to install magisk on my Oneplus 3. with OOS 4.0, it worked fine on MM but no go since updating to nougat.
Edit:Fixed it! I hadn't ran the uninstaller first. Once I did this it worked fine. Doh!

Hi,
I'm running a HTC 10 with Lineage OS 15.1 (8.1.0). I came from Magisk 16 and an update message appeard. I downloaded Magisk 17 and tried to install it via TWRP as usual. The installation stopped with an Error 2. After that I had a boot loop and had to reinstall the Lineage OS. After that it booted again. But I still get this error message when trying to install Magisk 17.
Very odd. Besides of that, GREAT WORK!

On my pixel 1 it claims to install, but causes a bootloop. AND updating to the most recent manager breaks using v16. So I'm stuck with an old manager and v16
Yes, the new manager seems to not fit to Magisk v16. In my case it also broke something so I updated to v17.

READ THIS BEFORE ROOTING DEVICE
- In any case i'm not reponsable of the beginning of the 3rd World War if you find a way to build a time machine with this guide ! So keep your plans of the time machine in a secure place.
- Any of below said method to root will trip knox and void warranty forever.
- Root process needs wipe data so make backup of important data (including Internal Device storage) before proceed.
- As of now you will lose Samsung Pay and Secure folder forever if you root once, even unrooting won't help. (hope in future we can get it working on tripped knox device). Also you may not able to run some banking apps, you can use Magisk Hide
- OTA likely won't work once you root device.
- To unroot device completely, simply flash Samsung stock firmware, Remember, Unrooting won't revokes warranty nor you will be able to use Secure folder/Samsung Pay. Once rooted, these feature gone for you unless some magic happen in future and may find a way to use it.

16.MAKE A BACKUP IN CASE OF BOOTLOADER RELOCK.
Enjoy ! You have your Galaxy S9 or S9+ watched by the organisation rooted.
Q&A:
Hey F10, why my magisk app isn't appearing or crashing when i lunch it ?
You have to delete the related folders of magisk at this path: /data/app
Hello dev, my phone is bootlooping after the flash help me plz.
You missed the dm-verity flash, just flash it.
Hi i tried to flash a kernel and i lost the root. I don't have any backup what should i do ?
Some kernel when flashing re enable the encryption of the / partition so the only way to go back is the backup. Without that you good to wipe and reflash magisk (and loosing all your data).
Does the magisk 17.2 (Beta) works on my Snine ?
Ya it's works.

I did it but installation fail !!
Is it possible to install Magisk without TWRP on the S9+ ?
When I try to patch the boot image I get "Repackaging boot image.... ! Installation fail" The Magisk log file everything seems to work then it ends with " Cleaning up.... ! Installation failed" . I can probably patch the boot.img of the S9+ with my S7 Edge. Any idea if this would work?

Update with latest firmware from Samsung.
Not sure what you mean @frauchgu10. I have the latest OTA installed.

I don't know why but maybe this version is incompatible with this method. I will maybe do some test about that.
Maybe.. But do you think it wil work if I patched the latest boot image (for the S9+) on another phone (S7 Edge). What will happen if I try to flash it via Odin ?
Everything went smooth! Recovery installed, and rooted.
Thanks!

hi there,
im unable to root after the august 1 security patch running stock rom G965FXXU2BRGA_G965FOXM2BRG8_ILO on galaxy s9+
my phone lags then freezes permanently after flashing magisk and booting up . i haven't experienced this before the update
any ideas?
im thinking the update probably broke "No Verify Encrypt" because magisk is unable to keep dm-verity enabled .
i discovered this when opening magisk manager,the checkbox for preserve dm verity is not checked,and when i do enabled it it does nothing.tried restarting too
i tried various methods including issuing "echo KEEPVERITY=true>>/data/.magisk" command in recovery terminal after flashing magisk with no success ( i even tried flashing different magisk version ,latest version then the one before it and another one..etc) tried supersu too . i tried everything in "Magisk and MagiskHide Installation and Troubleshooting guide " documented in Magisk Troubleshoot Wiki (Didgeridoohan!)
my steps to rooting is the following :
enabling OEM unlock if not enabled
flashing twrp 3.2.3.0 star2lte
formating data then rebooting to recovery
Installing No Verify Encrypt 6.0 star zip file then rebooting to recovery again
installing rmm state bypass v2
flashing magisk ( tried different versions,customs ones too ,supersu)
rebooting to system
(gathered from various tutorials from highonandriod or other places)
What features are gone if i rooted my phone other than secure folder and samsung pay?
When rooted you can't update via OTA. Some games can detect root like pokemon go so you can not play these games without doing some tricks.

could you help me with my problem?
im having trouble with my device rooting,after the first boot my device freezes up and wont respond.
it seems that samsung patched some of the vulnerabilities used by the bypasses to achieve root,
after the august update. the device is unable to sustain the NO Verity OPT encrypt , the device seems to re-encrypt it self after the first boot
thanks alot man

I see Samsung reinforced the security I'm trying to do something about that. If you want a stable rom I suggest you to install the soldier9312 rom:

okay thanks alot man i appreciate it
@frauchgu10
i came upon some new information that maybe would be helpful
ashyx ,a recognized contributor to the xda community said ,and i quote the following :
"Since Oreo Dm-verity flags are no longer in the Ramdisk. The flags are dtb based.
If the dtb isnt patched or dm-verity disabled in the kernel source then rooting will likely cause a boot loop.
Same goes for disabling forced encryption, the flags are no longer in the Ramdisk fstab, but usually located in the Vendor partition.
Magisk attempts to hex patch the kernel, but when Samsung update the firmware the hex patch offsets change and patching fails."
i hope this helps man
I truly appreciate everyone’s efforts and commitments Thank you for taking time out of your personal time to this :good::good::good::good:

magisk doesn't apply when flashing

Hello guys,
I made an update in TWRP and installed Havoc 2.4 to try it. After 1 hour I restored my backup and changed back to MIUI. I couldn't log in, so I cleaned the keyfiles to set a new pin.
I reflashed new Beta (25.4 MIUI - Xiaomi.eu) ROM and Magisk but root does not apply on my device... What is wrong? Seems that it's not possible to root anymore... Its does not give me any fails when installing the magisk 18.1 zip in TWRP...
thanks in advance
Have you tried a simple reboot? Usually it takes a reboot more to apply.
no it's not that. now its always booting into twrp when I try to flash magisk

Extract the boot.image from the rom and place it in your downloads folder.
Now with Magisk Manager , download and install Magisk to that boot image
Magisk will write root to the boot.image file and then will automatically flash the the updated boot image, and restart to system >>> Issue resolved.
I fixed it by wiping data... now its working

I have the same problem with magisk, after weekly update and after magisk installed, boot only TWRP. I tried with18.1 version but will not recognise. Boot image and Magisk 19.1 are in downloads but no success. Anyway, with this weekly update all people have loosen magisk, I have read in Xiaomi forum.

Nope, no issues on my Mi 8. Here is the trick. When updating do not flash Magisk until you out have booted into the system and ran updates and deleted cache and trash, then reboot to recovery and flash Magisk.
If the method that I described before in the previous post doesn't work, then unpack the boot image from the update and flash it to boot in recovery then flash Magisk Canary debug.
I have been doing this for every weekly update using the beta ROM.
I had an issue just once that was resolved by flashing SuperSu, booting to system confirming root, then reboot to recovery and removing Su, flashing the boot and Magisk Canary

Man has found the guilty in Xiaomi.eu/community.
It is not Magisk, but Viper 4.2. I have flashed Magisk, after reboot again in recovery and wanted to flash version 4.1. It was uninstalled, have no Viper, but Magisk is installed ?

I no longer use Viper because my phone has 1 speaker and for me Ainur Sauren works pretty well for all sounds.
For listening to music I have the Pro version of Power amp which has every wanted option such as dynamic compression, dynamic EQ, convolution reverb, limiting , tag editing, visualizations etc, I bought it 5 years ago for $3. Best 3 bucks that I ever spent!
Seriously, I can't recommend Poweramp highly enough, its worth its weight in gold.

TWRP and Magisk help

Hi everyone.
So I had a moto x4 for about year and a half before fricking up the charging port. So I recently acquired another one. Everything went smoothly the first month or so, with twrp properly installed and magisk too, but then I tried to install a magisk module and the phone bricked. I tried restoring via twrp backup but it didn't work and I ended up in a bootloop. So I flashed a stock rom. And when I wanted to install twrp it just didn't stick after a reboot and magisk would just get my phone stucked on the splashscreen.
I realized that, for whatever reason, a previous version of magisk would work (magisk 18.1) but I've no idea why. Magisk 18.1 is the only version that works. If I flash any other version from twrp my phone gets stuck on the splashscreen, same if I update magisk via magisk manager. And if I try to install any magisk module my phone won't start. But root permission works fine on other apps i.e. system app uninstaller, root explorer or swift installer.
Does anyone have any idea? It'd be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!
