Magisk does not install - X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

After unlocking the bootloader (formatting) and installing LOS 17.1, I flashed latest Magisk and installed the apk.
However it always says 'Magisk is not installed' with red ?.
I have tried reflashing in recovery countless times and it never works. There are no errors when flashing or anything to suggest it hasn't worked, it says its been successful.
What can I do to get this working?
Edit: I have wiped all partitions and reflashed LOS but Magisk still doesn't install.

Recovery Bootloop after Installing Magisk

Hi,
I'm using ASUS ZE551ML running latest Lineage OS 14.1 ROM.
The SU addon on the Lineage website doesn't seem to work anymore, so I switched to Magisk.
I tried installing Magisk v14 zip from TWRP, rebooted to system, and it booted back to TWRP.
It's been 2 days and I've done plenty of reading on this forum but haven't found any solutions yet.
Thanks.
Have you tried signing your boot image after flashing Magisk?

Thanks for the response.
I've visited your link and read it.
So I should flash the Verified Boot Signer after I flashed Magisk?
Edit : Flashing the Verified Boot Signer helps me get out of the loop and my phone is now rooted. Thank you very much.

Magisk v15.2 not installing

Hello
Okay i flashed my mobile with new OTA
after i try to install magisk but getting error that "Magisk manager stopped" after zip downloaded
i dont know why that happening
after zip downloaded getting black window then pop up shown about error
i think it cant patch boot img properly
in my old rom it works properly, but after flashing it did not work
thank you....
Try installing it in recovery
I sometimes get that majisk stopped toast on just about any ROM and just about any majisk release. I just ignore it. I have no idea of the what or why. Haven't noticed it affecting anything.
Yes. It's happening to me too. Does it work if I flash this update with twrp?

After installing magisk 15.2, magisk manager 5.5.3 stuck at the splash screen for me. What's wrong ?

Having the exact same issue on a pixel xl. Tried on 7.1 and 8.1, both with the same result.
I never use manager. Always TWRP, and can people start searching and using the support thread for questions, logs, and bugs instead of keep making a hundred useless threads of the same thing, can't install, can't install modules, etc. That's what support thread for. Thanks.
I am using MIUI 7.12.28 (latest) on Redmid 3S and I can flash magisk 15.2 using TWRP normally but when the phone restart, i go to magisk manager and it shows that magisk is not installed
I tried flash many time but the same problem happen
When i tried to flash magisk 14.0, it works. what is the problem here o_o

No, i am flashing from start
I just flash new miui (full wipe, factory reset)

Now i can have root with Magisk 14.0 but when i tried to update to 15.2 using TWRP, it just disappear lol
(Flashing normally, no error, restart phone, go to magisk manager -> magisk is not installed )

Error 1 after reflashing ROM, can't (un)install Magisk

Hello, so I decided to reflash my ROM because I kept running into issues, and I didn't uninstall Magisk before doing so.
Then when I tried flashing Magisk it showed me error 1. Flashing the uninstaller gives the same error. Magisk Manager shows that it is not installed, Root Checker states that the device is unrooted, and so far the only app that mentioned my phone being rooted is LastPass.
What can I possibly do to reinstall Magisk so it's back on my device in its full grace?
I checked other posts and either they are not related to my problem or didn't help
Phone: Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Snapdragon, Recovery: official TWRP non-treble, ROM: latest build of official AOSP Extended
Maybe try dirty flashing and flashing Magisk again?
Not Sally when Magisk is already installed, I can flash it again with no problem. Weird that you're having these issues. ?

Did you wipe everything? Wipe system and data before re flashing your rom.
@LennyTheCat To be absolutely sure what's going on you're going to have to provide the recovery log, saved after you've attempted you flash Magisk.

Try updating your TWRP. That has solved "cannot mount vendor" for other Mido users.

well, it has installed no problem, but then my phone got stuck in a bootloop after rebooting. I have to reflash everything now, will tell if it worked later
@Didgeridoohan when I install Magisk, the phone keeps running into bootloops. Clean install of the ROM and Gapps seems to work fine. Tried 16.0 and 16.4 packages

Well... You're using a Treble ROM, right? So I'm assuming you're using a Treble modified Magisk version (since there's no official Treble support in Magisk yet)... If not, I'm sure you can find the relevant information in your ROM's thread.
Always go to the source...

1. Boot to TWRP
2. Flash latest uninstaller
3. Without rebooting flash Magisk v.17.0
4. Reboot
If needed install manager manually.

Thanks mate,worked for me.
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!
Cheers

Magisk uninstaller will not works without custom recovery so i think my instruction is not applicable in this situation.

Double check if the package is not corrupted, MD5 should be: 6237bfaf7dcf516b60922b5b26f2dca8.

Thanks for this
but now i can't install universal fix for safetynet check
I'm not sure if Magisk v.17.0 is fully backward compatible. Maybe this is preventing the module from installing?

ok so wait for new fix thanks
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.

Magisk install on Pie

I have installed the latest pie stable on my op 3t. However it would never boot when installing with Magisk.
So for now I have installed it without Magisk and got it to work ok. However now I'm having same problem installing Magisk.
I can install and uninstall it from twrp latest, however when it's installed, it is just stuck on the initial screen with oneplus logo. And never makes it to the circle/dots screen.
I tried using 19. 2, 19.0 Magisk and 18.1.
Is there any logs I can pull or did anyone else have this issue?
Are there any other safe root solutions to try instead?
Any help would be appreciated

I always flash Magisk BEFORE the first boot. Also no custom kernels, especially not AFTER Magisk flash.
Is this what you did as well?
I couldn't get it to boot up before firstboot. So I went with normal nonroot flash so I could use the phone.
I figured it would not matter if I installed Magisk later.
I might try to reflash everything over again

Never had this problem until today. So I did some testing.
Magisk 19.1 causes it to get stuck at the OP logo.
I flashed uninstaller, reflashed the ROM, flashed Magisk 19.2 and it worked.
Are you using the 19.2 zip?

Yes, I had problems with 19.1 too, that the phone sometimes (if not always) would boot itself into fastboot mode instead of system, so at that time I moved temporarily to canary builds
I used this zip instead and it worked. Not sure what's different but I'm good now
