Hi, i'm trying to update my Mi A2 on stock rom but it gives always an installation error. There's any other way to update ? Maybe anually?
Hope someone help
U can install stock rom via fastboot or remove root and update.
For fastboot update u need to download whole stock rom (10.0.9 may update) and install manually but after that you need to flash patched boot images of may update for root access
I had problems too but since the last Magisk update (couple weeks ago), the latest OTA went just fine.
Thus :
1. Try again after updating the Magisk app and module : update Magisk (direct install), reboot, uninstall magisk (restore image), update Android, DO NOT REBOOT, install magisk on the other slot and reboot.
2. Or, uninstall Magisk, reboot and install the update (you will have to reinstall Magisk like you did the first time)

It should just detect you have TWRP, and download the full update (not the partial update for stock devices - which will result in a bootloop) and install properly.
I would advise to have Magisk on the phone, and flash it right away (after the update - before booting) as you will need this to get root again. And it will also (my understanding) prevent TWRP from being wiped out (which may happen if you reboot after the update w/o rooting first).
Alternately, you can get the full update zip from the Guides section, when it comes out. Then just flash in TWRP. Again, flash Magisk before rebooting.

It's discussed in the Guides section. Please read before posting questions that have been asked and answered over and over.
Hello
I was on B180 (PRA-LX1C432) rooted with magisk
No updates available in settings/update firmware, but connecting to PC HiSuite B194 appeared (which seems to be for Honor 8 lite by the way). It downloaded it, pushed it to phe phone, but when rebooting it goes to twrp... so obviously I'm still on B180
I imagine we have to flash back stock recovery before updating ? And then twrp again, magisk flash, etc ?
Thanks !
About OTA over magisk I found that on P9 forum:
1) unroot by Magisk Uninstaller, find the download link in the post https://forum.xda-developers.com/sho...63&postcount=1
2) flash from TWRP original stock boot img
3) wipe Dalwik and Cache from TWRP
3) flash from fastboot original stock recovery
4) let it make OTA update but select in the System Update settings to use Full (not differential) update - it will not delete your apps and settings
maybe the safest way indeed...
But as I "catch" the full ota, maybe I can use fastboot to flash only system and boot, and the reflash magisk to patch new boot img ?
anyone ?
Nobody updated after root ??
Ok, this is what I did and happened:
- In TWRP, flash magisk uninstaller script: ERROR 1. After reboot magisk was still here. That was a bad start...
- So I opened magisk app, click Uninstall and then Complete Uninstall. After that I made a reboot as asked, and device rebooted twice.
- Then, went to download mode and flashed stock recovery. And reboot.
- Then went to settings/updates/download latest full ota. It downloaded but refused to start the install process claiming to free up more than 900MB... Nothing on my internal sdcard so I had to uninstall some apps... cool !
- Then it reboot and installed the update
- First boot took a while, I still have "this device cannot be trusted" on start, and OEM unlock in settings is grayed and ON, so I think the bootloader is still unlocked
- Theme and wallpapers were reset with the update
For now I don't have flashed back twrp neither magisk .
In the meantime have you flashed TRWP and Migistik ? And again: do you have still to update your signature or something went wrong in installing fw B194.
Lastly: what do you mean by "went to download mode and flashed"...
Hi, I have been using Magisk for last one month. Everything worked fine. All my root apps worked like a charm. Today I tried to install an OTA update. For which I tried to restore stock boot image with Magisk. After Magisk showed, 'restore successful' message, I tried to install the OTA (April), but I couldn't, it kept on showing installation error.
I then tried to reboot my device but it got stuck in bootloop.
Using MiFlash Tool, I flashed back the stock ROM which restored everything including the bootloader but retained my data (user apps and settings, Magisk and other root apps were also retained.) I then updated my stock ROM with the OTA.
Then with ADB, I unlocked the bootloader and flashed the patched boot image file of April.
After booting up first time after the patch, Initially the Magisk and root checker, both showed me root access, but after a reboot, the root access was gone. The root checker now says - Root access is not properly installed on this device.
Magisk homescreen says, Magisk is Latest Version v16.0 but Magisk is not installed. On clicking the install button, it only shows two options - Download Zip only and Patch boot image file.
What should I do to get back my root access?
You have to reflash Magisk manually after every OTA update.
Hi There,
I met some issues when I tried to flash the Magisk zip to my MIX2S.
Phone MIX 2S
OS:MIUI 10.3 by xiaomi.eu 9.2.15
Recovery:TWRP
Situation:
Part 1, at the beginning, I flashed the xiaomi.eu rom to my MIX 2S, and then flashed magisk zip file, everything works well except sometime the saftynet check will fail. After I check the post of saftypatcher , I changed to ianmacd mod. Everything seems fine until then. I need to re-flash the magisk official zip every time after I update my phone, and than update magisk to ianmacd mod in magisk manager.
Part 2,
Today I updated my rom to MIUI 10.3 by xiaomi.eu 9.2.22, I then re-flash the official magisk zip as usual, and then updated to ianmacd mod in magisk manager. I re-boot the phone, then it reboot to recovery when I tried to input my pin. Reboot again, still went to the recovery. So I use ianmacd uninstaller to uninstall the magisk, and tried to flash the official zip. The phone booted into the system, but when I open the magisk manger, it shows that mangisk is not installed. I reflashed again, still the same issue.
I uninstalled the manger, tried to install the offical manger apk file, told the app was not installed.
I downgrade my system to MIUI 10.3 by xiaomi.eu 9.2.15, reflash the offical 18.1 zip file, reboot, no magisk manger on my phone, tried to install the apk file, still failed.
I boot into the recovery to uninstall and install again, still no manger in the system. Now I'm totally lost.
Part 3, some of my app tells me that my phone is rooted, so I guess the magisk is in somewhere of my system?
Attached is the recovery log.
Thank you in advance. Sorry for my English.
You've been mixing Managers with different signatures (the official with unofficial)...

Thank you very much for the help. It fixed my issue.
Now I need to investigate the "boot to recovery" issue.
Hello together
I want to show you the way how you can update your Phone safely without loosing root:
Android 11
Download OTA in your Settings under About Phone
Recover Magisk
Install OTA - DONT RESTART
Go to Magisk Manager and install it into other Slot (After OTA)
Restart
Android 12
Don't recover Magisk in first step
Download the Incremental Update. It will fail 3 times. After the phone offers you the Full OTA Update 4.xx GB.
Download and Extract it
Install Magisk into other Slot. DONT PRESS RESTART
Go to settings and press Install Now on OTA.
Phone will update and reboot directly without asking
Android 13
Download OTA in your Settings under About Phone
Recover Magisk
Install OTA - DONT RESTART
Go to Magisk Manager and install it into other Slot (After OTA)
Restart
I hope this will help some people out there
