Hi guys!!
My dad recently got me a Mi A2.
I would be grateful if someone can tell me how to unblock bootloader and get magisk and debloat this stock pie rom. On my A1 there is no need of a patched boot image to get magisk working. I just flash the magisk zip and it works. Are things different on a2?
Will I be able to install OTA updates if I debloat my stock pie and use adaway and systemless hosts module of magisk?
Why debloat Stock pie is clean!

Once you achieve root, you can freeze applications. If you don't want root, you can remove them through ADB commands. There's very little, if any, bloat on this device.
As for Nova, with or without it, you aren't going to see a significant performance increases.

hello,
i used the xposed module "app settings" version 1.13 with android marshmallow before i updated to nougat. this module enables you to change DPI, font scale, locale, force fullscreen, persist in memory, etc. on a per app basis.
here is a link to the module:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/xp...2014-05-14-t2437377/post63835421#post63835421
i have not found any possibility to get this working on nougat as there is no xposed for nougat and it seems there is no more custom rom with these options.
is it possible to get this module working with magisk?

Downgrade to marshmallow or write xposed for nougat. The first is easy, the second will make many people happy over here.

Just to clarify on the above response: No.
Thanks Op, I also would love to have App Settings equivalent on Magisk or stand alone. Turns my 6.44" Mi Max into a desktop chrome browser almost

It would be just ultra hard to code that, or just impossible.
years ago (before xposed got famous) some custom roms (paranoid,...) had these functions.
i would go back to marshmallow only because of this missing features but there is no marshmallow rom for my new oneplus 5.
is it really impossible to get it working with magisk? the code itself (version 1.13) worked without any problems on marshmallow.

You'll need to manually edit files and apps and Magic Mount them with Magisk. Alternatively you could possibly do some things with some cumbersome scripts. Magisk can't change code of running apps, just replace/add already modified files and run scripts at boot.
In other words: No, IMO it's not worth the extreme hassle and you won't get the same thing as you would with Xposed.

thanks for your answer!
do you have more information about these "cumbersome scripts"? maybe it would work with tasker and a script per app.
i would be very happy...i like my smartphone much more with these features.

I wasn't gonna open up that can o' worms, but since you brought it up... :laugh:
Look up how to work with shell scripts. Tasker can run those (among other things). You could probably do some stuff with the resetprop tool as well (look here for details and syntax).
Don't expect miracles though...

"App Locale 2" for Xposed can help you
And you can get Xposed systemlessly with Magisk.
Thank you so much for the advice.
My phone is 1st generation Pixel with latest android, mgaisk installed. I will try to figure it out.

What's the function of this module?
This module replaces current fonts of your phone.
Changes the default emoji font to the iOS 11.1 beta 2
Changes the default fonts to Pixel 2 Fonts with product sans fonts of Android Oreo 8.1 DP1 included
This module is not my personal work. But I use the fonts from the following thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/general/root-stock-emoji-fonts-ios-windows10-t3418801 by @RickyBush_
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-t3694333 by @dr.bathman
All thanks are given to them.
What's new in iOS 11.1 emoji:

How to install?
Flash from TWRP
Or
Flash from magisk manager 5.3+
Compatibility?

sorry for the noob question is this modules compatible withe MM (Android 6) Roms ? Magisk14.3 installed
tried this module with LG G3 (D855) Fulmics Rom MM (Android 6) Latest magisk 14.3 and system ui crashed and bootlooped
i hope if you can make modules for the updated emojes only without fonts maybe google fonts android nougat conflict or mismatch with android 6 mm
Working perfectly! Thanks
Do you have an uninstaller with this one? I flash it thru magisk and when i reboot all my magisk module is gone my device is samsung s6 stock nougat

works great on Pixel 2, except for the lockscreen font.
needs to be uninstallable.
Can you create emojis module only without Pixel 2 font?

It's magisk bug. If you encounter this bug please reinstall magisk installer via TWRP. And you'll get all of your Module back.

Or you may install emoji only, I gave the link in 1st post.
Emojis working perfecly on kenzo NOS 7.1.2! Thanks
working perfectly on redmi note 3....but honor 6x having weird symbols beside emojis..any fix bro ?
Is there a font module only?[emoji4]
Sent from my Mi A1 using Tapatalk
Installed this through magisk 14 on a moto g5s+ running stock nougat, and it looks like it's worked, but then it will display a different emoji to the one that you click. Anyone having this problem?
Edit. Actually, it seemed to be a problem with textra. Once I downloaded the textra ios emoji plugin it put them in the right order. Seemed to be working properly everywhere else.
This module won't install at all. I tried 3 separate times, even re installed Magisk completely. Here is recovery log.
UPDATE: There's a bug in the installer somewhere because if I flash it first then no other modules will install no matter if I flash magisk again in TWRP and if I instait last it just won't install period.
UPDATE 2: I tried another systemless font zip with pixel 2 fonts and it does the exact same thing so it maybe rooted to that somehow. Thanks again.
Noob question but i just rooted my pixel 2 using Magisk and the only reason for doing so was to install IOS emojis (since most people i message use apple phones its easier for me to understand them)
Previously i rooted my galaxy s6 and used emoji switcher from the play store to change the emojis. Afterwards i unrooted the phone since i was having issues with safetynet apps (i originally rooted with CF autoroot and supersu). Even though i unrooted my phone the IOS emojis remained and I was able to use my safetynet apps properly again.
After rooting my pixel 2, I had some issues with emoji switcher (emojis were cut off on gboard and too close together when typing) so i decided to try this module instead. Worked perfectly save for the lockscreen square as shown in a previous post. Since I dont require root for anything else, I was wondering if I unrooted through Magisk Manager (and restoring the stock boot.img) would this module uninstall itself as well? And would i have any issues with safetynet following the unroot?
I would prefer to keep the IOS emojis and was wondering if they would remain if I decide to unroot(since I assume the module simply overwrites the system fonts)

Magisk modules doesn't actually write anything to /system, so if you uninstall Magisk, you uninstall the mod.
You can of course use the root permission to overwrite the system fonts, but if you plan on unrooting and keep the modification, don't use a Magisk module.

Ok i used a root explorer to find the /system/fonts folder. I assume I would simply have to copy the .ttf files from the module zip into that folder? Or is there more steps to take?
Sorry for asking but i am fairly new rooting and my previous rooting experience was limited to following youtube guides and I'm still a bit unfamiliar with modifying system files.

That would do it, yes... Take whatever files you want from the module and copy to the corresponding location on your device. Just remember that you will not be able to update your device with OTA updates, since /system has then been modified. You'll have to do that manually with factory images.
Edit: you might have to change permissions for the files, but just make sure they match whatever other files are in the same folder and you should be good.
Hey guys just need to double check some information
Currently using a Google Pixel with Purenexus 7.1.2 and chainfires root.
Tired of waiting for PN 8.0 so going to slflash to stock and was wondering if magisk root would be a downgrade from chainfires as I am a power user

Not a step down at all, I've only had Titanium Backup give me any type of warning about it, but gave me no problems.

Not sure why you think it would be a "downgrade". It give you root, and that root functionality is not significantly any different from SuperSU. Plus, Magisk has a big collection of cool "systemless" modules which can be easily loaded and unloaded.
Each method has its pros and cons. Read up on both, and decide, as it's primarily a personal preference. But personally, I was a longtime SuperSU user, and was hesitant to jump on the Magisk bandwagon. But now that I have, I have yet to go back or even consider it.
The thing is, magisk provides simplicity over SuperSU. Also systemless feature give it ahead start of SuperSU

MagiskSU is based on SU original binaries so isn't a downgrade, its just that if you use Magisk, the su binary u will use will be ajusted for Magisk compatibility.
Then, Titanium Backup works with Magisk's root?

Hi,
I'm very much interested in installing MIUI dialer and message apps in MI A2, for many reasons. Tried several apks from other phones transferred, download from apkmirror etc. But could not install any of them. Tried unlocking boot loader too.
Is there any solution to install these apps without flashing new ROMs.

well then what you need to is try to download the latest stock for "wayne"
extract it using some tools from xda that will allow you to extract the rom properly
or
ask a friend to grab it from their wayne using twrp
you need to use twrp project to put the apk files in the system app or priv-app locations since it wont work as user apk
now I'm by no means a pro but what I do know is you will need more than the only actual apks ...you will stuff like mi dialler framework because it uses a different than google ...and other stuff ..i guess if i looked long emough i could compile a list but im too lazy
i just wanted to express while it may not be impossible it is probable that it won't be easy at all

if you're happy unlock your bootloader you can flash Pixel Experience+ GSI
otherwise you'd still need root at least for lawnchair launcher if I remember right.
Lawnchair doesn’t need root. If you want to root, but not custom rom, try pixelify module.
