Invicta OS & Magisk - Moto G4 Plus Questions & Answers

Hi, I've searched, can't find straight answer on this. I am running Silesh's Invicata Rom, works great.
I am interested in running Magisk instead of embedded root, I see where other's say it works, but don't see any specific instructions on getting it up and running.
(Wasn't really interested in this until I found out Netflix soon won't work with root/unlocked bootloader)

Just flash the Magisk zip in recovery.

Thanks for the answers. Invicta has built in root, so just disable on developer options? Is a data and or system wipe necessary?

No need, just flash Magisk and wipe ART cache in recovery. Ignore the built in root.

Did you try? what is the result?

I am using the same Invicta, with Magisk! Just flash the Magisk zip.. in TWRP clear cache and dalvik and then download Magisk Manager from the official thread, it is not on Play store anymore! Instakk/update the magisk manager. It will work normally...
No need to disable the Built in root, as it does not interfere. If it does, then disable and then try.!

Isit possible toinstall magisk without clearing cache and delvik ? If i do that, i will lose connectivity with my jio sim

If you make a clean installation it's not necessary to wipe the caches.

1. Take a backup of all apps if you want then back
2. Don't try unrooting and all cuz I never got a 100% success rate here
3. Flash Invicta os as a clean flash
4. Flash gapps
5. Flash magisk 14.0
6. Reboot.
7. Your safety net should pass
8. Go to magisk hide and hide play store.
9. Try downloading Netflix, if you can't just download APK
10. Try logging in, if it doesn't work magisk hide it. It's done.
I'm using Netflix

A clean installation is when you don't upgrade the rom to a new version by just installing it over the old one.

Just flash magisk over the ROM installed, you won't lose anything!
If u are worried, try magisk before restoring any of your stuff!
no need to worry about inbuilt root... It doesn't affect magisk..

[ByPass SafetyNet] Systemless root with PureNexus ROM (ASOP) + Elemental X Kernel

Okay I did a lot of research and thanks to some fellow on Reddit I got to bypass safetynet with systemless root. Now my banking apps work (Also you can run pokemon go too) I don't play it though.
Procedure:
1) Wipe (Data, System, Cache, Dalvik)
2) Flash Vendor (If required for build)
3) Flash PureNexus (Latest)
4) Flash Dynamic Gapps
5) Flash Kernel (Elemental X in my case)
6) Reboot to System (Setup your phone and come back to recovery)
7) Flash unsu.zip (unSU removes root)
8) Flash Magisk V11 (It has its own built in systemless root)
9) Reboot to System
10) Download Magisk Manager from playstore
11) Toggle Magisk Hide (this will enable systemless root)
12) Select the applications from which you want to hide your root from Magisk Manager App.
~ Voila
You're welcome. Let me know if anyone needs help.
[UPDATE]
Sorry guys, for not posting the resources.
You can find the latest Magisk and the unsu.zip on the following link
http://jmp.sh/QqYdv7h
it work fully no bug ? with the rom or magisk ?
I can also pass SafetyNet without Magisk, but well, maybe this tutorial will help someone.

Not that i'm bragging, but you can flash my validus build, it has magisk preinstalled, and you can have safetynet patched by enabling magisk hide. Here proof

I don't play Pokemon go. But since it bypass the safety net protocol. It should work. My banking and other apps which didn't used to work before cause of the root capture mechanism work perfectly fine now. You should try it.

i'm rooted with supersu 2.79 latest pure nexus 7.1.1 rom and latest elemental x kernel 4.05 and full dynamic gapps for 7.1.1 thanks you
You still have your bootloader unlocked?
I can hide root (supersu 2.79 sr3) with Root Switch, too.
But I do not understand what the difference is, because with me is in SafetyNet Test "CTS Profile Match" false.
For my banking app is root in that moment not present.

Magisk v11.6 compatible with Droid Turbo Stock ROM

I can confirm that Magisk v11.6 installs and appears to function perfectly on my stock, unrooted, bootloader unlocked MCG24.251-5-5 device. Also, MagiskHide is not enabled by default, so keep this in mind if you're using a work device or any other situation where you might get in trouble for failing safetynet. That's all I know so far.
Go forth and Magisk!!!

MagicSU is included with the Magisk package. You can enable or disable it using the Magisk Manager app once it is installed.

Sorry, I was wrong about being able to disable it. There doesn't seem to be an option for that. But as long as Magisk Hide is enabled, Pokémon Go works fine for me.
More complicated question:
If I'm rooted via Computerfreek's debloated stock ROM, is there any point to running Magisk--and if so, how would I switch from SuperSU to MagicSU

The only advantage gained would be the ability to pass safetynet/use Android Pay/play pokemon go while rooted. To switch, uninstall SuperSU by selecting the full unroot option in the SuperSU app, then flash Magisk.

It's mostly for intellectual curiosity and maybe android pay.
But it didn't work--at least how I went about it.
I went into SuperSU and did a full unroot but did not restore the boot image (should I have?)
Then downloaded and flashed the latest 11.6 magisk
When the phone came back up, SU was gone but Magisk didn't re-root it. There were no options to do so.
Tried a second time and wiped caches but no change.
I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that Magisk needs the OG boot image to work properly?

I installed it on stock MCG24.251-5-5 and Superuser is an option that appears in Magisk Manager. Yes, you should probably have the stock boot image before installing Magisk. I think the Magisk installer is designed to detect existing installations of SuperSU and not install its own superuser if it's detected, so if the full unroot didn't clean itself up properly for whatever reason, that might be why it didn't install with superuser.
It says:
...
-(Recommended) Restore your boot image back to stock
-Download the latest Magisk zip file
-If you choose to use SuperSU (only support Android 6.0+), first flash SuperSU in systemless mode
...
Which zip of super su should I flash therefore before flashing magisk zip?
I am currently, after restoring a backup, running your MGC stock with stock kernel, but I try installing bhb27s kernel now.
Ultimately I simply want to hide root+xPosed against my banking app...
€DIT: Wait, so SuperSUB may not be necessary, but is it safe to install magisk over bhb27s kernel?
I would do the following:
-Install newest v44 kernel from March, 12
-Reboot and look if Wi-Fi still works ...
-install Magisk 11.6
-Check if phone still works
-then install a working xposed
-Check if everything works
Is that correct or should I use another kernel version? I don't want another bootloop or damaged wifi^^

I don't see any problems with that plan, but you should know that xposed will insta-fail safetynet. If you want to hide modifications from anything that uses safetynet, xposed in any form is not an option. The only thing that works for me is Magisk 11.6's built in root, no xposed, no other modifications. With that, I can use Android Pay, Pokemon Go and my banking apps just fine as long as Magisk Hide is turned on. Android Pay and PoGo are blocked by default, but you need to make sure to go in and manually check the box next to every other app that you want to hide stuff from.
Also, if you insist on using SuperSU instead of the built in Magisk root (why???), you will also have to install the latest version of suhide (and I'm not positive that works anymore).
.I did not exactly know Super SU is just an option so I will not install it. Wish me luck
Also I hope there will be a way to hide xPosed however my banking app does not use SafetyNet, there is still hope, I don't care about Pokemon Go.
€DIT::: Everything working perfect - however safetynet fails when checking with Magisks own test. I guess it detects the Bootloader?
€DIT2::: Now after another reboot safetynet is successfully bypassed. My banking app still doesn't work - looks like they found a way that is even better than safetynet.
I just haven't had time to dig up another boot.img and flash it. I might revert back to SuperSU and come back to this later.

Try clearing the data for your banking app. Maybe it's set up so that once it fails, it never checks again. Also, clear cache/dalvik cache in TWRP if you haven't already. Also also, did you remember to block the banking app in magisk hide?

Root, update to Nougat and hide root

Hi,
To be honest I am a bit bored of the standard ROM, having come from other phones where I root and have a play. I did try to root once and did so successfully and installed a new ROM (Was CM13 or 14 I think) but some of my work applications (email, calendar etc) and some games (e.g. Pokemon Go) require you to not have root.
I found some website links to use hideSU and Magisk but I couldnt get it to work when toggling, and was stuck with it showing as rooted. This was around 6 months ago though
When I try to do a search now, most of the links relate back to the old Magisk process which didnt work for me last time and is still 6-12 month old links. Does anyone have an easier, step by step process of how to root, flash ROM and then hide root?
I am familiar with flashing, so no issue explaining that - I just need to know what steps in between/after flashing I need to do to hide root.
Thanks
Install any rom with Magisk. Then go to Magisk Manager app, enable Magisk hide under its settings, and then install your applications normally. It's so simple. Don't forget to check root status in Magisk app. Sometimes SafetyNet shows as not passing, but there are fixes to make it work.
I personally recommend ResurrectionRemix and AOSP Extended ROMs, but there are lot of roms with Magisk now.
Ah, I have to install ROM through Magisk? I did mine through TWRP I think and then did Magisk, this might be where I went wrong. Will try again, thanks

Nope. Install ROM that includes Magisk (and gapps) through TWRP, then use Magisk Manager app that is included in ROM. Sorry for missing that part. Quote me next time so I get the notification.

If i want to say install RR Remix, anyway i can flash the ROM and then Magisk separately?
Hi 3sixty , How did you succeed in hiding your app through magisk ? any positive methods.. I will be happy to know as I'm trying to solve a similar problem with my samsung galaxy note 5.
Flash any ROM, flash magisk, update magisk manager and enable magisk hide
Sent from my ONE A2005 using Tapatalk
Well, I never used Magisk, but i used to hide root by installing Root Cloak App from Xposed. So you have to flash Xposed framework as well. It used to work with most of the apps with android 4-6, except for 1-2 banking apps.
For Custom Roms, I recommend Ressurection Remix over all ROMs after MIUI ROMs. MIUI ROMs are available for other handsets as well and not just Xiaomi.

Switch to Magisk from Super SU

Hey guys,
I apologize in advance if this is somewhere on the forum (I coukdn't find anything on it.)
So last evening I decided to do the fllowing: unlock, install twrp, root and install a custom rom. I'm comeing from a Note 3 so just getting familar with everything for Nexus.
I completed the unlock, twrp install and root (supersu) with the nexus root toolkit and made a backup as well (not through twrp), and flashed the latest pure nexus rom (stock kernal).
I would like to switch over to magisk so I can get the benefits of using it. How would I go about doing so ?
Thanks !

If you want magisk then dirty flash your rom to get rid of magisk. After that flash the magisk zip from recovery then reboot and go to play store to update app. Why do you want magisk btw? I used it but drooped it for supersu as it made the splash screen (boot logo that said Google) stay for a while making boot time take a long time.
Ok so if I did the following would I be in the clear:
Full Wipe
Flash rom
Gapps
Elementalx kernal (want to try this kernal)
Magisk 12.0
Reboot
Install magisk manager
I'd like to have magisk to hide root, for things like netflix.
Also would it make any sense to run unsu while flashing everything else ?

No need to flash unsu. If Netflix is the only reason you are using magisk then you could just use apkmirror. Also, I heard that the app detects unlocked bootloaders. You should be good to wipe the rom and flash all the stuff you said.
I'll look into apkmirror. Forgot to mentioned I'd like to used android pay as well. Can apkmirror help with that ?

If you want android pay then you need magisk and need to hide magisk from it aswell as using the hide root settings. You also need to pass the SafetyNet check if you want to use android pay.
Ok thanks. So I will do everything I mentioned in the list as well as set magisk to hide in magisk manager settings ?

So just an update. Did the following :
flashed
Rom
Gapps
Magisk
ElementalX Kernal
Reboot
Installed Magisk Manager, enabled magisk hide and systemless host (for adaway) and rebooted. Safetynet passes in magisk manager. Went to play store, checked settings device certification and it's certified. Searched netflix, still not available. I'm guessing this has to do with the bootloader being unlocked ? Is there a way around this or will I have to just download the latest apk from apk mirror ?
Going to test the phone out for a few days to see what battery life is like with elementalx (I was averaging around 4.5 hrs ost with stock). If I don't get any better I will def test out your wakeblock.
I would like to hijack this thread a little bit as it is on the same topic as well with slight differences, sorry!
I got a stock 6P with unlocked bootloader and rooted with systemless SuperSU. Fiddled around with Magisk manager before, it will fail SafetyNet check.
How do I switch to phh superuser and using magisk? Will this pass SafetyNet check? The bootloader will still be unlocked....
My main intent is to be able to use Android Pay.
This thread is right up my alley. I just got a Nexus 6 ( XT1103 ) unlocked bootloader, rooted using a Windows toolkit (don't remember the name) and have twrp installed. I read about Magisk after trying to use Android pay without any luck. I would like to use Android pay and believe Magisk would let me be able to do so with still having use of root apps.
Is it possible to go from root to Magisk without loosing my data?
how to keep magisk from uninstalling during a reboot!!!!!!???!!!!!!
im new at thisxda stuff but i am 90 percent sure i figured out how to keep magisk from uninstalling after a reboot... YOU MAY NEED TO UNINSTALL MAGISK AND ALL MODULES BEFORE DOING THIS basically you have to also install an older version of supersu and it has to be an aroma installer and install as SYSTEM if also make a backup of the boot.img just incase you get bricked if you install the supersu app it will say su binary occupied but install should stay install supersu aroma (2.78v2) from https://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3879523&d=1474248173 before and possibly after magisk install...only tested with magisk 16.2 beta channel and regular install not patched boot on Axon 7 with RR 8.1 weekly 6.0.0 20180225 (us variant) but should work on others probably...let me know how this goes for you
TRY AT OWN RISK I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR DEVICE BOOTLOOPS OR BRICKS
If anyone has a better way to get magisk to hold after a few restarts please let me know

No certification of play protect

Dear comunity,
I really need your help with this. I have a OP6T and finally updated to the android 11. Before the update, I removed magisk (it was giving me some errors from time to time and I wasn't using the root for anything) through TWRP and then I just updated to the latest OOS through OTA. Everything went smoothly until today, when I went to a store and tried to pay using google pay an error appeared and it seems I have no longer the device certified by the play protect.
What did I miss during the update? Is there any workaround?
Thank you in advance!
I would try wiping and installing the latest oos through twrp instead of ota
I just did this to have everything stock again. Since I installed via OTA, didn't I loose the twrp recovery? Wiping are you referring to a complete clean install? I'm not quite prepared for that :|

I don't understand why it would not be certified after ota update. You can try uninstalling updates for play services and play store maybe that will help. Or there might be magisk files that persisted. Could try to root with magisk again and uninstall it using the magisk app. Just ideas for ya cause I really don't know for sure. But I do know for sure even with stock oos you can still boot a twrp and use it even if you dont make it permanent. So you could use twrp to delete magisk or anything that would be throwing off the safety net. Could also try a safety net checking app to narrow down the problem depending if it passes or not. I just suggested clean install because there may be conflicting device names or whatever from going from custom to ota update. Hope it helps

I don't understand why it would not be certified after ota update. You can try uninstalling updates for play services and play store maybe that will help.

Thank you for the suggestions. I installed root checker and it didn't detect any root. I was thinking on installing again TWRP to then install/uninstall magisk. But I can try to check the safety net, its strange indeed, I have everything working without any problems, even the google or bank apps.
When I uninstalled magisk I had to do it through TWRP because my magisk manager that was in "hide mode" woulnd't open because it was constantly crashing. As you said, probably there is some remnant files from magisk left.
EDIT: I run the safety checker and it found a problem with "CTS profile matched", any idea what is this?

Basically has 2 different ID's probably from going custom to ota update. That's why I suggested clean install. Anytime going from one rom to another clean install is needed.
@Brettroth the thing is, I was/am in the stock rom, the only thing I had "custom" was the magisk (which I uninstalled before update) and TWRP recovery :|

You should be able to just dirty flash the oos from twrp then. Should fix any mismatched id's
I will try the dirty flash through twrp

Finally got some time during my holidays to try this, but now I'm facing some problems. I tried to fastboot flash the TWRP version that you suggested in another thread but the recovery can't read my storage due to encryption. Do you have any suggestion?

Yeah it should. The other twrp should have worked also with a11. You might have corrupted your data. Probably need to wipe data by typing yes to fix.
How can I have corrupted my data by just flashing the recovery? Can't I flash the stock boot.img?
EDIT:
I was able to flash the stock boot.img and everything is working now. Starting again, what do you suggest, boot TWRP and then instal zip and flash OOS+TWRP? My problem is, which TWRP version should I boot and flash, since the one I tested gave this problem.
Hi, my case is a bit different as i havent used magisk and i have a difderent phone, but my solution to "device is not play store certified" which was showing in play store, about section was as follows:
Enable Developper mode (setting/about/software info/click 7 times or so on "build number")
A developer menu appears in settings at the bottom, within it i disabled "OEM Unlocking".
Restarted phone checked, was still not certified, cleared data for "google play services" and "google play store", restarted, and voila.
Hope it helps
