Hi folks,
I would like to use MAGISK on my Samsung "S4 active" phone, running with LineageOS 14.1. The root option is currently enabled in the developer settings and SU is working. TWRP is installed and the bootloader is unlocked. Now I would like to switch to MAGISK in order to be able to play Ingress without loosing the ability using Titanium-Backup and Viper4Android.
- Must I perform a factory reset to make MAGISK up and running?
- Must I uninstall SU before I'm trying to install MAGISK ?
- Must I disable the root option in the developer settings ?
- Other things I have to be done as prerequisite ?
Thanks
Tom

Hi everyone,
I followed this guide to install Magisk v14 on my Huawei P10:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10/how-to/guide-huawei-p10-root-magisk-magisk-t3625151
Root is working fine. However, MagiskHide doesn't seem to be working. Firstly, I am unable to pass Safetynet. Also, when I try to hide root by using Magisk Hide to select the app (for example, Root Checker), root is still detected by Root Checker.
Lastly, when I enable/disable the option "Magisk Hide" from settings, the logs don't show any response. I tried enabling/disabling using a Terminal, but there is still no response.
I've run out of ideas, and any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks.
What worked for me (after many tries) was:
- install Magisk 12 (not Magisk 14)
- install Magisk Manager
- within Magisk Manager, update to Magisk 14, checking the two boxes as on the tutorial you linked do.
Hey, thanks for the reply. I did try to do what you did, but for me Magisk Hide wasn't working. No logs were generated when I tried enabling / disabling MagiskHide in Settings. Does yours work?
Yes, the checks worked. But I had another issue (Sound and Settings stopped working). I ended up doing a factory restore and decided that root is not for me on the P10. It just doesn't seem stable enough. Will wait a few years for my next phone, I can live without it.
Hope you have better luck that I did.
Hi everyone,
I am using the application Raiffeisen Twint (version 1.2.16.0, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ch.raiffeisen.twint) on my Magisk's rooted Google Pixel (Android 8.0, Nov. 2017) without problems for a while, but since Magisk 14 versions, the application stopped working and the application reports that root is detected.
I have successfully updated to Magisk 14.5 (from 14.2), but root is still detected by the application, even with Magisk Hide activated for the application and the Magisk Manager package moved to a random name (could also be related to the updated application).
I have cleared the data of the application several times and it doesn't help and root is still detected by the application...
Anyone has a idea?
Thanks for your answers!
Like I said in the Magisk support thread, I can hide Magisk from that app just fine (on Magisk v14.5 beta)...
You don't happen to have any other mods that might trigger an app looking for root (like Xposed)? Can your device pass SafetyNet? Have you previously been rooted with any other root method and do you have any remnants of that left (root management apps, etc)? Do you have any apps that are known to be used for questionable purposes. By "questionable purposes" I mean getting access to paid features without paying, etc. Not necessarily that you use the app for this, but that the app might be used in such a manner... Etc, etc, etc. Every little detail might count.
Hi Didgeridoohan,
Thanks for helping me!
I do not have any mods installed in Magisk and also no Xposed. My device is passing SafetyNet!
I have performed a factory reset last week and since that I only rooted my device with Magisk 14.2, so no other rooting applications used. For details, I have unlocked bootloader, TWRP recovery installed and developer options and USB debugging activated.
My settings in Magisk are:
I have following applications installed on my device:
https://pastebin.com/pmt4jBMV
Do you see any applications with "questionable purpose"?
I get this message in the application:
Thanks a lot!
At a quick glance everything looks ok...
I did some experimenting with the other Raiffeisen apps you have installed, in case they also detect root and "tell" on you. At least one of them did detect root, but from what I could see it didn't make any difference for Twint.
I also tested installing a few of the root apps you had installed (in case the app looks for certain known apps), but that didn't make any difference either. I could still successfully hide root.
My guess is that it's something along these lines tough. That it's using another app or detecting a root app. You could start experimenting with that. Clearing data for the other Raiffeisen apps and adding them to MagiskHide and also removing root apps. Try disabling USB debugging and developer options as well (didn't make difference for me, but worth a shot).
Simple. Change name of package from settings in Magisk Manager, then MAKE SURE you add twint app to magisk hide list, then ERASE DATA of twint app, change package name once again and run twint. Working with Magisk 14.5. Screens if u want available. Or video.
Hi Didgeridoohan, Hi Mamama07,
Thanks for your help, but sadly none of your suggestions did worked... until the update of the application released yesterday, to fix problem related to rooted devices! [emoji3]
Thanks anyway again for your help! [emoji106]
I had the same problem (with BCV Twint) and after a few tries, changing Magisk Package Name worked!
Hi!
So this is my first post on xda, so please be nice
I rooted my Samsung s8 sm g950f with ambasadii, and running magisk.
When I first flashed the rom everything went ok. The first time I entered the Magisk Manager app there was a note that said that I can update the manager app to v18.1. When opened the app got a message that the app was unsupported by magisk manager. So I flashed the rom again and just didn't updated the manager app. That's one problem, here is the next one.
When I enter my banking they use a 2 step verification system. I have to go to the phone and enter a code that verifies the login. Now since I've rooted the phone I can't use it, is there any solution to this problem? The banking app does not support either a rooted phone. One of the reasons I rooted with magisk is the Magisk Hide. But I don't think it is working for me . The verification goes through the sim card.
Let me know if you need some more info to help me solve this problem!
PS: I am new to rooting
Thanks!
Welcome to XDA, Magisk and root world.
Quick tips:
Every time before trying the problematic app again, under Android settings/app, stop it and clean its cache and data. Even better to unistall it, reboot, install it again from play store. Even better before reboot go to recovery mode and wipe cache, dalvik (only those!).
Hide Magisk Manager (=repack it with a random name). You do that on Magisk Manager settings menu. After that its visible name will be only Manager (on your app drawer).
read everything here, special attention to SafetyNet and hiding other rooting tests apps may use:
https://www.didgeridoohan.com/magisk/HomePage
install MagiskHide Props Config module and use its improve hiding settings: (available for download on the Dowload menu of Magisk Manager)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-magiskhide-props-config-t3789228
Try updating Magisk/Manager to 18.1/7.0 (last stables):
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445
Do backups and try updating to last Canary builds. Read last posts on its thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/dev-magisk-canary-channel-bleeding-edge-t3839337
Maybe the module ShellHide works better than standard Magisk Hide on your device, I don't know. Read thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/magisk-shellhide-t3855616
For general Magisk support, usually better search and ask for help on official support thread:

Hey guys,
I flashed Havoc 2.7 rom on my Redmi note 7 Pro.
Scenario 1:
Then flashed Magisk via TWRP.
It passed both Safetynet checks:
ctsProfile: True
basicIntegrity: True
But none of these options are checked:
Preserve AVB 2.0/dm-verity
Preserve force encryption
Do we manually check these both options?
Then I updated magisk and manager via manager itself and rebooted, and found Preserve AVB 2.0/dm-verity was automatically enabled.
I'm not understanding this behavior.
How did it got enabled after update?
*********************************************************
Scenario 2:
Flashed Edxposed to use gravity box and other modules.
When I tried using few company and banking apps they kept giving errors.
Then had a look at magisk SN checks and found:
ctsProfile: False
Then I read somewhere that Edxposed breaks SN integrity etc.
So uninstalled every exposed module and finally uninstalled xposed from recovery.
Still magisk reports SN check as fail for ctsProfile.
Checked by using tools like Root checker and it reports:
Superuser app: Not installed
SuperuserBinary files: Installed
Does that means my device is still partially rooted?
If so how to complete uninstall SU binary files as well so as to make my device completely rootless?
Scenario 3:
Can I simple use my device on custom rom on UL bootloader without getting issues running banking apps if I don't plan to root?
Scenario 4:
Still is there any possibility to use Magisk + Xposed combined together and yet pas SN checks?
Can someone answer serially to these queries?
Hide Root from Apps e.g. Banking AppsNOTICE (24.11.22): Updated threadInfo: I'm sharing my take on how to get S-Pushtan Banking App to work with Magisk, or any other App of your Choice. (Greatly inspired by searching on the internet)
Works for:- Android 8-12
List of apps known to work:- S-Pushtan, Sparkasse, Sundhedskortet, Keytrade Ban
What you need:- Magisk 25.1
- DenylistUnmount Magisk Module | Download on Github or use shamiko module
- Universal Safetynet Fix Magisk Module | Download on Github
- MagiskHidePropsConfig | Download on Github
- Airfrozen App v1.2.8 | Download on Github
- optional: Yasnac (Safetynet Checker) | Google Play
Pre-Requisites:- Have Magisk 25.1 installed
Step by Step Guide:0. Install Magisk via Recovery and reboot
1. Go into settings of your Magisk Manager and
- enable "Hide Magisk Manager" , type in a name you want for the hidden app.
- open the new app and enable in settings: "Zygisk", then in "Configure DenyList"
- Select any app you want hide root from (for example your banking app)
(Make sure that for every App, all processes are also choosen. If you did everything correctly the colored bar should be full)
1.1.1 Disable "Enforce DenyList"
1.2 Install DenyListUnmount or latest Shamiko Module, Universal Safetynet Fix via Magisk Manager and Reboot to activate the modules
Reboot again.
1.2.1 Check that your Safetynet Status Pass both times via Yasnac App
- If you don't pass the Check, install the MagiskHidePropsConfig Module via Magisk Manager and Reboot to activate the module
- Configure your fingerprint to your phones or a Google Pixel's and reboot again -> do Step 1.2.1
2. Install Airfrozen (grant root permission)
2.1 in Airfrozen: Select your renamed Magisk App and your Banking App (example: Sparkasse, Google Pay)
2.1.1 In Airfrozen: Settings->General->Auto freeze
Enable "Freeze on exit" and "Not Freeze foreground"; Set Freeze on locked to 1 minute;
2.1.2 Optional: If you want a open (also unfreeze) your Magisk Manager/ Banking while they are disabled to use them; longpress the apps in airfrozen und create a shortcut for easy use
2.2 Setup your Banking Apps now, while the MagiskManager is disabled and undetectable.
4. Done!
CHECKLIST:- Magisk installed and Zygisk enabled, App is hidden
- Your Banking App is selected in Airfrozen and XPrivacyLua, and MagiskManagers Denylist
- Your Magisk App is selected in Airfrozen
- Remember the usage rules(below)
IMPORTANT RULES FOR USAGE:1. Always freeze the Magisk App before using your banking App! Vice-Versa
2. In the case that it does get detected -> Force Close your Banking App and clear the cache.
This Method should work with most Apps right now that are detecting root
It's a trial and error situation so try your best, also give some feedback for others as to which apps work and which won't.
I hope this will help some people out there.
Stay healthy!
Thank you very much.
I can confirm this ist working with:
S-PushTAN Version: 3.4.0
Magisk Version: 23.0
Airfrozen 1.6.2 (143)
on latest ArrowOS (Android 11)
Thank you very much.

Ice Box is also working fine if you need an alternative.
@sm00th4f3
Thanks a lot, this method also works for these two banking apps
Still a very nice and working workaround
Nice Nice, works on my device!
Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro (begonia)
Android 11 Stock, Miui 12.5.4 Global (RGGEUXM)
Magisk v23
S-Pushtan v. 3.5.1
Can't belive its working. Big Thanks!
Thanks working on rooted pixel 6 pro !! S Pushtan from Starfinance is not detecting Magisk ! Thanks for your work
After completed all the steps, app still complain.
One extra step for me is to also delete the "TWRP official app" (which I decide to randomly installed it back when I rooted my phone)
And citibank app can now open.

What magisk Version do you use?
I've installed LineageOS on S8 and the S-ID-Check app complains about a rooted device. Now that Magisk Hide isn't available any more (v24.3), is there any other way to make the banking app work?
Edit: updated thread
will it cause any issue if i reboot the phone with magisk frozen ?

Nope. You are only freezing the magisk manager app. The root itself is still in place
I have a up to date guide in the works. Stay tuned.
UPDATE: Refreshed the Guide to latest Magisk Stable and with easier instructions... Cheers!
I am using my phone rooted again, as you can probably guess
Not working
I use the Bank Austria App...
Edit: removed list of not working apps
Not working neoBT app (Banca Transilvania Romania).
