Hi All,
I have rooted my note 8 with magisk. As far as i am aware, Snapchat wont work unless i unroot and log in, then root again? Could someone point me in the right direction on how to uninstall the root please?
Second question, i know secure folder will no longer work because the knox has been tripped. Is there an alternative way to hide pictures or an alternative to secure folder?
Thanks in advance

If you have rooted with Magisk correctly you should just be able to open Magisk Manager app and go into the settings and open Magisk Hide and select Snapchat. This will hide root from Snapchat.
once you have done that close snapchat and reopen and try to login.
All other apps that use Google Safteynet should pass automatically without magisk hide if magisk is installed and working as it should.
*You do not need to uninstall root*
however the simple procedure is
- flash magisk uninstall zip
to reinstall you just flash magisk install zip and install magisk manager app
all can be found here - https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445
it would be a good idea to clear cache/dalvik too (first boot will take 5-10 mins after cache wipe)
As for a file hiding app theres quite a few apps on the playstore but nothing is as secure as secure folder. Your better off zipping your personal documents with a password and unzipping them when you need them. Heck i would not worry too much about security now your device is rooted you have lost a lot of security your no longer encrypted meaning you could fish anything that was on your device even if its been deleted by normal means.
I'm using a Galaxy S8, Android 7.0, Magisk 16.6. When I try to play Pokemon go, it gives me the "OS not supported" message. The 16.3 fix didn't work back when it came out and I haven't been able to play since then. I did check the app in Magisk Hide and I activated the setting to hide Magisk Manager with a random package name, but it still doesn't work. Is there anything else I should do?
The only thing you can do that will work is to completely uninstall magisk. That should let you play pokemon go.
Pokemon also looks for a bunch of known root apps on your device, not only Magisk. And MagiskHide can't hide other apps.

What are those apps?

There are a whole bunch... Busybox installers, system cleaners, etc. There's an old list available somewhere in the Magisk PoGo thread (search), but that list might be outdated. Easiest thing is to uninstall some root apps and see if it works better.
An easier alternative, if you have the means to do it, is to use a clean spare phone/tablet for Pokemon Go, and keep your phone how you need/want it for everything else. Bluetooth data sharing is enough bandwidth to make PoGo work.

Sure.
Make sure you have Pokemon on the Hide list.
Hide the Magisk Manager (in the Manager settings)
Delete the MagiskManager folder on your internal storage (next time you download/install a module through the Manager the folder will be recreated).
Edit: There will likely be an update to Magisk that will hide the MagiskManager folder. But for now this is a workaround.

Hmmm, tried all this, but still PoGo will not comply, even when I sandbox it in the work profile. (island app) The latter sounds a bit strange to me, as it should limit access to anything. (Magisk Manager gets installed, but is hidden)
To be honest, PoGo is just a test for when they start messing with Ingress as well. When it's getting to much trouble to have the app behave, it's out. They are just games, nothing to compromise my device for.
Also rename or delete every file or folder on your internal storage / sdcard that contains "magisk"

Any file? Not only the directory, but one that can be found somewhere on the device/external sdcard? (Like Magisk-v16.7.zip which you need to install it...)
Strange it should see it when sandboxed.
You can try, someone else said so, I did also do it and had no problem anymore so far.
But you should be right, that when its sandboxed it should not see it anyways...

Before using the hide magisk manager option, make sure magisk manager is NOT a system app. This will successfully repack magisk manager.
Then delete magisk fodler from internal storage and hide PoGO.

May be other ROMs come with integrated Magisk. That was the case in mine. Convert it to user app first.
Then try magisk hide again and look for the package name in app info (It should be something random). Then continue with other steps as it is and it should work fine.
Let us know how it goes
Hi togehter,
if you use the Fake GPS Route, then uninstall via TWRP Magisk and then works PoGo (new version) perfekt, that works with my Samsung S5
I have a problem with my Samsung S7 edge, if I uninstall Magisk, then I have the problem, that the S7 go to a bootloop <--- Have anyone a idea?
Samsung S7 Edge
6.0.1
SecurePatch 01.12.2016
TWRP Recovery
If I install Magisk again, then boot the Samsung S7 without a bootloop, but then dont work PoGo
Xamel
Uninstall in the magisk app not by flashing a zip in recovery

I have a LG G6 T-Mobile H872.
Rooted via this method
How do I remove the T-mobile apps.
I tried the debloater terminal method in Magisk but didn't see the T-mobile apks there.
I tried removing them via varies remove system apps. Magisk gave those apps root permission but removing the apps failed when attempted.
I am on Magisk v18.1
My rom is H87220f
Also, I tried removing the Gallery and the Photos apps with the debloater download in Magisk and I rebooted and the apps are still there. Whats going on?

I think the poster needs more specifics than this.
I have a Mustang, unlocked and rooted with Magisk, running OS 6.3.1.2. Sometimes, recently updated user apps are automatically uninstalled after a reboot: you see the icons disappear from the homescreen. I have seen similar behaviour with a rooted HD8 (2018) Karnak. Is this something to do with Magisk? Is there a way of preventing it? Only user apps disappear; it can happen to updated system apps but in such a case only the update is removed, the core system app remains.

Likely FireOS (or some sub-component) attempting to rationalize what it thinks is installed vs what is found on the device.

I wonder whether this has anything to do with the removal of DeviceSoftwareOTAContracts ?
If one were to flash "finalize.zip" per the following OP, then DeviceSoftwareOTAContracts is removed :

No: I have my own zip file to disable a few unwanted apps, the lockscreen ads and DeviceSoftwareOTA. I don't use 'finalize.zip' and I don't remove the DeviceSoftwareOTAContracts app or disable it.
Today two apps updated from Google Play and one from the Amazon Appstore. I backed up with Titanium Backup and rebooted. The apps briefly survived the reboot but were then deleted. I restored them (apps only: the associated data does not get removed when the apps disappear). I then rebooted. The apps survived this reboot.
Has anybody else seen apps disappear after a reboot?
I'm using Andorid Q custom rom and rooted.
I'm not able to uninstall or remove stock google apps from Titanium backup like earlier. It says apk not found for any system app.
Then tried Magiks Debloater and removed Youtube.
Now whenever I try to flash YtVanced via TWRP it says flashed but when I boot to phone I cant find youtube yt vanced.
Whats wrong?
Also, is "/system/product/priv-app" or "/system/priv-app" somethign new path which got introduced in Android Q ? As seems due to this Titanium backup is failing and google made it real hard to remove such apps.
Sorry for being brief, but it sounds like you're using the systemless debloater module. The way this module works is by not *actually* removing the system apks from their directory/folder, but that it writes a systemless "blank" space, which tricks your phone into thinking the app is not installed. That said, the root version of Vanced is named to mimic the package name of the regular YouTube app (same name, so that other apps that would call up YouTube can call up Vanced, instead). If you "debloated" YouTube, then essentially, the debloater is tricking your phone into thinking it (re: Vanced) isn't there. If you were to re-enable the YouTube package name, then it *should* pop back up.
