I flashed magMa ux 8.5 rom for my n900t and i saw the Magisk systemless root and i got intrested! So i installed Magisk v12 with SuperSU but i found there was conflict with it so i wanted Magisk v12 with MagiskSU!
I tried dirty flashing the Magisk v12 + MagiskSU over the Magisk V12 + SuperSU! Which caused (im guessing here) caused my boot.img to get corrupted or damaged because it installs into ramdisk!
I tried a nandroid back to my old rom which, worked, wiped in twrp to reflash the rom, which also worked, but installing the magisk to the ramdisk and what it does ends up failing!
I can still boot into my system with root but it causes some conflicts with apps, such as snapchat as it thinks i have magisk still but i only have supersu! And i cannot full unroot from SuperSU app because, i think the boot.img is corrupted!
Would flashing a stock boot.img fix my problems, then reflashing rom again? Or would i have to reflash the whole stock samsung rom and things?
Im on Note 3 N900T! If reflashing the boot.img would work could someone provide a link to download the N900T!!! boot.img?
Thanks
What you call boot.img is the kernel.
Stock kernel won't work with a MM port like magma.
I advise you to do a full wipe from twrp then flash magma.
Before that, refer to the rom's thread for extensive informations about Magisk and systemless root.

Since going back to stock from the RR ROM, I've been using SuperSU 2.79 and really missing Magisk. Is it possible to use Magisk on the stock ROM, or is that only an option on LOS-based ROMs?

Yes, it is obviously an option. Simply download Magisk 14.0 zip, then go to SuperSU --> Full Unroot, then the phone will restart; after it does go to TWRP and flash Magisk

I haven't been able to uninstall supersu. Even after updating it to 2.82, it still says "uninstallation failed". Attempting to flash Magisk 14.0 fails also, as it detects an existing root method.
So install just boot.img from twrp and flash magisk.

Either do what WesTD says or find a SuperSU uninstaller zip (i think there's one around), or wipe system and reflash the ROM

I once did a full unroot of SU from a secondary ROM on my G3 and it wound up unrooting the phone itself. Bricked and out of service for some months (flashed so many ROMs it lost its LG identity so drivers never worked. Had to bring it back the hard way). Anyway...
What WesTD said is the easy way. Also the first time SU is flashed it saves the original boot image in the /data directory I believe with a gz extension (compressed). Gunzip it and you'll have your image you can flash.
Check the web for osm0sis' unSU script. It safely removes all of SU. For systemless you'll have to restore your boot image or dirty flash the ROM.
Ah, here we go...

Good stuff. Thank you!
I used Magisk for awhile on B19, but I've had too many issues with it, so I prefer Phh's Superuser. It's not nearly as well known, but it's fast, reliable, and works on the latest versions of Android (Oreo too). Basically it's the little guy that most don't know about or consider, they think Magisk and SuperSU are the only legit rooting games in town. I won't even give KingRoot/KingoRoot more than a mention, because they have ads and install crap, not to mention I've bricked a handful of low end phones by using these 2.
As far as ditching SuperSU (like if it's built into a rom, or you just want to switch, I use this order:
1. Flash osm0sis's unSU zip.
2. Extract your boot.img from whatever ROM zip you use, flash in TWRP
3. Flash Phh or Magisk zip and reboot
Reflashing system partition shouldn't be necessary, it's just the nuclear option of last resort that noone wants to do.

Could you say which problems you had with Magisk?
If you had f2fs then of course. But usually Magisk works as it should and has the module system which is very useful too.
I was waiting for a root enabler for oreo (41.3.A.2.24), and I could find https://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-x-performance/how-to/guide-stock-kernel-root-twrp-drm-fix-41-t3711837.
But this link is for version 41.3.A.0.401 and it does not work for everybody including me.
Since androplus still didn't bring out a new version of his kernel I tried the method from the above link.
But I'm using newer versions than in the description, I use TWRP 3.2.0, Magisk manager 5.2.2 and Magisk 15.2.
I can install the new version, twrp, the new boor image and Magisk 15.2.
I can boot and Magisk runs but the Safetynet control failes and Magisk does not enable root.
On the installation of the boot image, twrp and magisk I got some messages (marked in red)
unable to mount storage
failed to mount
Before I tried with magisk manager 5.5.1 and magisk 15.1 but then I got stuck at boot time at the sony logo.
Does anybody have a way to root Oreo (the latest version), enable DRM and enable root?
Ok I started all over again and I noticed I didn't follow the procedure first time.
So I excluded the FOTA kernel but whatever else I check no full wipe is done, I can always see the previous installed apps, it does not matter if I check Cust-reset, master-reset or reset-wipe-reason, the system is not wiped.
So that's my first problem, how to wipe the previous install.
Flashing the rom seems to be OK, same thing for flashing boot_oreo.img and twrp-3.1.1-0-dora.img.
I'm not sure about twrp 3.2.0.0 because this version is off-line now, so I tried with TWRP 3.1.1.0 and 3.2.1.0 but they all gave me the same result.
Problems start when I have to flash drmfix.zip, safety-net cleaner or magisk 15.2. The procedure tells me the flash is ok but have a look at thet attached images, I get errors while flashing. One picture for drmfix, one for safety-net-cleaner and one for magisk 15.2
After flashing all of this I can boot successfully but when I try to get root in ES File Explorer pro, it does not work. When I go into Magisk and try the afety-net check I get ctsProfile false and basicIntegrity False.
So the rom does work but I do not get root.
I tried all of this with the Italian rom 41.3.A.2.24.R1E ? I can start all over again with the UK version 41.3.A.2.24.R2E but I do not know if this makes any sense.
So can anybody tell me what to do to get it all going?

1 - Do use always Adrian DC latest fully working TWRP build for dora.
2 - You don't need a 3rd party kernel to achieve that, instead, you can easily create your own one, based always on stock kernel!
Thats the SELinux's problem.
Flash this first then flash magisk

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 USING MAGISK UNINSTALLER basically you have to also install an older version of supersu and it has to be an aroma installer and install as SYSTEM 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
sidenote:this supersu does work with magisk not installed and definately keeps root
(stock boot.img is in initial zip for custom rom) select intall imgs in twrp and flash the boot partition as needed)
ALSO YOU CAN ALWAYS DIRTY FLASH CUSTOM ROM same build or higher IF ALL GOES TO **** AND WONT LOOSE APPS OR DATA AT LEAST ON RR
works for me without problems after last 2 years on any Rom.
dont know what you doing wrong?!

Hey,
I flashed twrp and then flashed Magisk and SuperSu in MIUI 10.2.4.0, 10.2.5.0 and 11.0.7.0... After flashing and rebooting my phone was not rooted, I tried many versions of Magisk and many times. But didn't work, anyone have any working files?? And does custom rom/kenrel helps rooting the device.
Thank you..
you need to patch the boot img. you can find patched boot img for older roms like that
nvm i had 2 tabs looked the same
Hey guys,
So I grabbed the latest factory image, patched boot with Magisk, and flashed it to the phone. Works great.
But now I want to use TWRP. I can't figure out how to get TWRP on this device.
It seems there's no recovery partition, so I can't use fastboot flash recovery twrp.img. I know I can flash arter97's kernel, which has TWRP baked-in, but I'm trying to figure out how to do it with the stock-Magisk-patched kernel.
Can someone please hit me with a clue-stick?

I'm on the PSMR3-RC002 version. Which version of Arter97 kernel works and is stable? Also, does this effect the Magisk root availability, or do I need to run Magisk patch on Arter's Kernel? I had used R12 in the past, prior to the new Magisk Boot-patch scheme, and also lost TWRP afterwards. I haven't gone and tried to reflash Arter97-R12 since I didn't want to bork anything and couldn't find an definitive answer.

@MoPhoMike,
I use arter kernel v12.0, seems to be as stable as can be, no hiccups or issues with 12 for me and have been running 12 for about a year.
Flash arter kernel to boot "fastboot flash boot arterxxx.img" xxx is for whichever version you flash or how you named the img.
Once the arter kernel is flashed, i then boot into TWRP. Either from bootloader on your phone, select recovery or use fastboot commands.
Then you can flash magisk from TWRP.
.
NOTE, i have some posts where folks say to boot up the phone after flashing arter kernel, then reboot to recovery and flash magisk. I do it the way i noted above and never had issues.
****No need to patch Magisk that I'm aware of****
Hope this helps...
The new version of Magisk doesn't install via recovery, but from Magisk Manager, and in doing so, it patches the boot.img from the app, then reboots, which then removes TWRP. I may just try to flash arter12 and see what happens. It sucks, because I don't have TWRP installed, and therefore can't make a nandroid backup.
