Hi All,
Been a root user for a few years, so i know the power of the typical root apps such as SU, Magisk and Xposed.
I was messing around last night an managed to find a way to get magisk fully installed on my phone and it passed the safety net ( see pictures). There are pictures to prove i have got magisk, Also there may be a easier method but this is what i used.
Ensure you are on RR as i have not tested.
Here is my method:
1. Download both attached files
2. Reboot to recovery
3.flash SU
4.Reboot
5. Once system loads open up SU app and go through the initial setup
6. reboot back into recovery
7.flash Pixel Magisk RC112
8. REBOOT
9. go into the SU app and into settings, scroll down to full uninstall and click thorough the popups and uninstall.
10. your phone will reboot and go into the magisk app and thank me.
Thanks for reading
EDIT: ALTERNATIVE METHOD BELOW:
How I got this on pn, elemental and flashing the right zip in the op was the key for me, the 2 zips in the first post of this thread
Install pn
Install TWRP
Reboot system
Reboot recovery, install elemental
Reboot to system
Reboot recovery install magisk sr3 zip one on op
Reboot system
Set up super su
Reboot recovery, flash rc112
Reboot system
Super su full unroot, check yes to both
Should reboot system
Open and set up magisk manager,
Go to settings and check hide magisk and systemlesd
Seems to work better on pn
This follows the first post of this thread works good for pn
If magisk manger doesn't show up in your launcher
Install https://github.com/topjohnwu/MagiskM...ger-v4.2.6.apk

Here's another way new rr already comes with magisk manager on it. Just wipe in TWRP, flash newest rr, reboot system once and then flash this experimental magisk zip in TWRP
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=457095661767148610
Also when your done make sure to check hide magisk inside manager. And also if your a titanium backup user, you need to go to preferences, troubleshooting, check force busy box, and sq lite. That will make it work with new magisk root
Remember to check busy box in magisk manager app,
And give it a couple reboots, takes a bit to kick in.
Edit no longer have to do anything to get titanium backup to work, just check Magisk hide and systemless
Edit. Will work on big and small pixel
Edit updated new Magisk zip

Looks promising, will it works on pn rom or is it rr rom exclusive for now?

Not sure I was taking to somebody last night who was trying it, he hasn't got back to me
Currently I'm using suhide, but I'll prefer magisk if it works since it's open source!

At the very end of my method I had to reboot once to get it all working right.
For the full unroot part do I need to restore the boot and recovery img?
If I choose no it reboot with SuperSU app disappear but still rooted with SuperSU as shown in the magisk app
restore the boot and recovery, it should delete the app and no super su left on your device.
Awesome. Gonna try this out tomorrow morning.
Are there any other useful modules for magisk? I havent looked into them since it was in v6 or v7...
only thing i use is hide su or magisk
everything else seems irrelevant for me, but if you find something let me know.
Here is my procedure: I was on newest RR with ElementalX and SuperSU.
I followed these steps: recovery -> dirty flash RR and flash Elemental X, MAGISK experimental zip, TWRP zip -> reboot = No SuperSU but magisk root works and safety net check failed in Magisk -> go back to recovery -> flash Elemental X, MAGISK experimental zip, TWRP zip -> reboot, No SuperSU, magisk root works, safetynet passes, hide magisk from other apps in magisk setting -> profit (android pay, venmo, snapchat, all are working)

Good deal. I had to do a clean flash. You might end up with bugs

Anybody know whether this decrypts the Pixel? I don't have a Pixel yet so I can't test

I have not seen anyone say they have decrypted the phone, Magisk is just now working on a few roms. I wouldnt bother, this phone has the processor for decryption.
So I take it that even with this it is one or the other with regard to having root (su) working or safety net passing for Magisk. You cant have true SU where you can alter system/app folders with Magisk root, you need true super su. So if I use Magisk root it limits me a little bit. But if I dont I cant use stuff like android pay, LOL

That's great. I'm trying to get a hold of another guy that said he got it to work on pn. I tried but ended up having to start over and flash stock. I'll tell u this if you haven't tried restoring a backup with rc2, don't, it caused all kinds of problems. I went back to rc1.
I can't get Titanium Backup to work . I did check "force busybody and SQlite" in Troublshoot settings,

You might have to reboot once, and I uninstalled and reinstalled it. It works. I even used it to back to my stuff after rc2 took it all away lol

Make sure and enable busy box inside magisk manager settings. That might do the trick and I installed busy box like normal to, not sure if I had to, I think it might be built in to that app
Hi,
sorry for my poor engl...but have a little problem with my phone/root..and because have no permission write it to RR thread. directl, so I try to use this way...
On the last build of RR rom 5.8.3.20170523 I flash SUPERsu 2.79(tried MAGISK too) all looks good but want instal viper4android and SE LINUX wrote this:
"Superuser manager doesn´t allow app to access SU or you don´t have root at all"
For your info titanumback not works (can not restore), but adway or total comander works good...
Any idea?
Thx

Try this:
Install RR again, don't install SuperSU, just keep magisk. then download viper4android module from the magisk app, and try again
SELinux doesn't let V4A work. I've been using Magisk root for a long time and the only app that didn't work was a very well known, shady one...
found better/simply solution, just flash last "official" RR build, there is magisk included and it works without any problem

Hola
Just to confirm I thought official RR had removed Magisk from base installation zip. So you're using the latest RR downloaded from Sourceforge?
Thanks.
just got nougat in the UK, and i was wondering if i can get twrp and root on it. The answer is probably yes but i just want to make sure, thanks
yes, i did it today

What about Systemless Root?

magisk works without problems
Instead of flashing TWRP as the permanent recovery, just boot to it by putting your phone into Bootloader mode and use the command Fastboot boot twrp.img (replace twrp.img with the filename of your twrp). Then you can install either SuperSU or Magisk as you desire. If using SuperSU, I would recommend using the SuperSUConfig to ensure that it is installed in Systemless > SBIN so that you can then install SUHide in order that you can get the likes of Snapchat working. Magisk of course has this all ready built in so you don't have to mess about flashing extras.
All being well, your device *should* then be able to accept any further OTA's, although I wouldn't hold my breath for any further ones being released.
You might also want to look at Flashfire by the same chap who gave us SuperSU.

Thanks a lot! The only problem was that suhide doesn't seem to want to flash. However my root works and so does my snapchat
Edit: Logging out of snapchat wont let me log back in? So is there any way to hide the root?
Edit 2: Nvm. You have to flash SuperSu-SR4 instead of the normal 2.82 one. I was now able to flash suhide and get everything working
is anyone else facing this problem? was using OOS 3.6.0. did a clean wipe and installed pure nexus with magisk and universal safetynet. while setting up my phone, it said the Device was reset. Sign in with Google Account that was Previously Synced. i logged into my account. now i'm not able to install any magisk module.

Because I don't wants things to be systemless.
Because of this systemless, I can't make my system in r/w.
(Somewhere a guy said - this systemless root is the reason why mounting system r/w as this hard (you know whatbi mean))
Sorry for my bad English
