Magisk 13.1 working for anyone? - Sony Xperia X Compact Questions & Answers

Hi all,
My system was working fine with Magisk v12, I saw there was a big new update, I was interested and updated.
But using the latest Magisk Manager, it says root is not detected.
It's not a big problem, I will restore back to v12 for now, but did anyone else get it working?
Thanks

Asus zenfone 2 flash update manual Magisk 13.1 crash recovery recovery then AD

Same here with Xperia XZ. With v13.1 Root is not detected. v12 is working fine.
Have tried to reinstall it by completely removing and flashing from TWRP, but still no luck.

13.1 and 13.2 working on 7.1 with repacked stock kernel with drmfix fix. It will also work with newest genesis kernel

I upgraded Magisk 12 to 13 beta, then 13.1 and 13.2 without problems.
Even SafetyNet Check passes.
I'm using genesis-nodrm kernel.

Hmm... I was on back on v12, everything fine, I see the 2 above posts saying it is working.
So I flashed 13.2 in TWRP, installed the latest manager app, but still 'magisk not installed', 'not rooted'.
2 say it works with genesis, 1 of them say also with stock...
For me with stock, it's not working.

Did you try to flash a clean boot.img first so magisk 12 is completely uninstalled instead of flashing back and forth over the same boot.img. Pretty sure I read people on different devices sometimes had to do this, or use the magisk uninstaller. Flashing the clran boot.img first is ofc preferred.

Ok I'll try that.
I believe I flashed v13.2 straight over v12.
But when downgrading back to 12, I did flash the uninstaller first.
I'll try uninstalling and then updating
- Still no luck, it didn't work.

I tried updating Magisk 12 -> 13.1 thru the manager, and it would download the zip then do nothing. I found the zip in the Magisk directory, and installed it like it was a module, thru the manager, and it appeared to work. I got the new Magisk Manager (5.0.4) and it says I'm on Magisk 13.1 but that Magisk is not installed, and there is no root.
Following the installation instructions, I rebooted a few times, no change. So I flashed Magisk uninstaller, cleared cache/davlik, and rebooted. Uninstalled Magsick Manager. Rebooted. Booted to TWRP and flashed Magisk-13.1.zip. Rebooted twice. Same issues; Manager 5.0.4 says I'm on Magisk 13.1 but that it's not installed, no root.
Finally I had to flash Magisk uninstall, reboot, uninstall magisk manager. Reboot TWRP, flash magisk-12 installer, reboot, sideload magisk manager v4.3.3, just to get Magisk 12 back.

I didn't have to reboot after flashing magisk uninstaller, I just flashed v12 straight after.
And I just uninstalled the new magisk manager then the old one right away, I think?

Magisk manager 13.1 not working for me either tried installing thru app but it does not work

"Use rootkernel tool from tobias.waldvogel to fix drm instead of PoC TA fix. It seems to be incompatible to Magisk while rootkernel tool patched images work"

I swapped over to Genesis kernel (1.05, the current latest) to try and see if it would help my device pass safety net, since for some reason it is not passing anymore (I tried lots to fix it, flashing etc)
As I posted directly above, it looks like Magisk v13 doesn't like ta_poc, so I used the drmfix version, and Magisk v13.3 works great, and once again my device passes safety net

Pre-rooted ROM for XT1644?

Just updated xt1644 to June 2017 update+TWRP+ElementalX kernel. Having problem booting to system after Magisk v14 flash. Rolled back system and uninstalled all Magisk.
With no NFC and no future OTAs coming, I'm ready to try a pre-rooted ROM. Prefer one that is compatible with ElementalX but I can roll back to stock kernel. Also prefer support for E911 USA dialing. Any help appreciated.
Before looking into custom ROMs, have you tried rooting with magisk 13.3? It's still available here at the bottom of the opening post https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445
The custom ROMs I've tested (Lineage, Invicta, RR) are compatible with ElementalX and others should be, a quick search of their support thread for ElementalX will reveal if others have tried it before.

OK, before completely giving up I'm going to try Magisk v13.3, which worked before. Thanks.
EDIT: Flashing Magisk v13.3 worked without a hitch. I installed Magisk Manager 5.1.1 as before. My only issue is that Magisk Manager keeps prompting me to install v14.0 after any option I select, even after rejecting the install option. There's also a status notification reminder. But I'm nervous about installing v14.0. Would it be advisable to to a Nandroid backup and then let Magisk Manager install v14.0? In any case, thanks for saving the day again echo92.
EDIT2: Tried installing Magisk v14.0 via Magisk Manage 5.1.1. Everything went well but again, the phone froze during the system reboot, just as before. Rolled back to Magisk 13.3 Nandroid backup and my system is working fine again without the latest Magisk update.

Thanks HueyT, that looks like a good backup prospect. In the meantime I'll be doing some research on that ROM to see how well it fits.

Rooting OREO (41.3.A.2.24)

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

Magisk hell resolved??!!!!!!!??!!!!!!!!!!??

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?!

Try reflashing the zip from the recovery. When I was updating magisk by the recommended method it breaks, and I had to reflash every time I installed a module. Then i started using the soldier9312's custom ROM and magisk Here: www soldier9312 de (cant post links)

Update to 9.0.16 not able to use Magisk-root ?

Hi All, I was on 9.0.14 and now I installed the latest OOS 9.0.16 through TWRP. All went well except i flashed magisk root.
I flashed the latest magisk 19.3 and 19.1 and all got me stuck on oneplus loading screen the red circle and white circle turning infinitely.
Then i tried magisk 18.1, everything loaded fine but magisk seems to be causing errors and not rooted. as i tried to grant nova launcher root, the app freezed and got stuck and force closed.
Also other apps that requires root are not able to request root.
any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
What update file did you use? Full?
Did you wipe cache/dalvik?
Did you reapply twrp, then magisk?
At least that's what I did and it worked (and still does).
What twrp version?
OOs 9.016 + Magisk 19.3 (+ xXx 7.7 + Omega Kernel) working here for 2 weeks without any problems.
My suggestion would be to reboot in recovery (TWRP), reflash full OOs.zip, flash TWRP.zip, reboot in recovery (TWRP), repeat all this once more then flash Magisk 19.3 Zip and reboot system.

I did as you suggested and had the same issue stuck at oneplus circles. I then tried to flash 18.1 it made me boot back into the system but root not working just magisk manager with just 2 options, in the menu side, settings magisk and settings.
Then I would try to start from scratch.
Means wipe everything, flash full OOS and then magisk.
@Shady282
Have you got it fixed? I am in the same situation and its frustrating that I am still unable to get root.
Tried flash magisk 19.4 canary no success. Still stuck in bootloop.

Hmm sorry, do 't remember.
I guess it was the latest Twrp at that time, I switched to op7 non-root for a while now...
the 6t was derooted and given to my s.o.
