Hi guys, I have successfully rooted using temporary TWRP + modded magisk method, but now I gain root and checked via Root checker. But the problem is most of the root functions don't work as /system is read-only. Any idea?
Ya i have an idea.. Happened to me as well. I tried almoat everything but system won't be accessible anywhere.. I followed the same tutorial and installed magisk 13.4.
The only solution i could find was flash the latest factory image, and root again using supersu. I used the AIO tool by ghpranav and have got my phone rooted with xposed working without any issues.

I also fixed the issue. I flash the modified boot image and I am now gaining proper root access + Xposed. Get it working using Super SU, idk why Magisk keep failing thou. Was wanted to give Magisk a try, but it doesn't work properly on our device.
Cool:good:
Xposed isn't working with magisk? I was planning to install it

Guys, this is Magisk from Pixel. You can't expect that it is working. I wrote to MagiskDevs already, they are working on a own Version for Mi A1. Use for that time normal SuperSU (Xposed works normally )
how to??

You need flash back stock boot image first, due to some limitations you can't have TWRP and SuperSU root at the same time. If you don't have the stock boot image. I suggest download the ROM from MIUI and then flash it. You can choose "flash_all_except_storage" option, this will keep your data.
http://en.miui.com/download-333.html
After flashing. Reboot back to fastboot and then:
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
After that just run root.bat from the cf-auto root folder you downloaded and wait for it to automatically reboot your phone. You should have root now, if you wish you can download SuperSU from the store.

I actually tried before, and I tell you the results:
Option 1 TWRP installed + Rooted with Magisk
= Pretty much useless as /system is read-only. Every root app doesn't function, unless it is system-less. But system-less modules nearly all doesn't work as the Magisk version too old. And this method won't trip safetynet
Option 2 no TWRP + Rooted with SuperSU (cf-root method) -- Currently using this state
= Got proper root access, Xposed works but will trip safetynet
Option 3 TWRP installed + Rooted with SuperSU (cf-root method)
= Don't try this, will cause your phone stuck in boot loop

The best bet and possible trouble free is to first download the stock ROM from MIUI, reflash it and then root.

No, it will cause your phone stuck it boot loop if you try to flash the SuperSU zip directly from the official ChainFire site. I think probably is the AB partitioning problem or some sort (unsure). As I said you need to run CF-Auto root to get proper root access, otherwise flashing Magisk through TWRP will makes most of the root apps does not work properly unless it also uses system-less root function.

No if you want proper root with CF-auto root you must not have TWRP installed. You either choose TWRP + Magisk (non-working root) or no TWRP but with SuperSU (working root, Xposed works too).

No, you don't explicitly need recovery (TWRP) to install Magisk.
You do need recovery to install kernels or anything similar.
Magisk has a function that will patch the boot image file if you have a copy on the phone.
You can then copy that patched file to your computer and use fastboot to flash the patched boot image.
I have used that method before.

Well... Here's my take...
You know how to do that... Therefore YOU don't need recovery...

Welcome to XDA
Need patched boot file
Does anyone have a patched boot file for Magisk on Essential Phone for the latest Android P Beta? The Magisk app won't patch my boot image and won't tell me why. If I have the file from somewhere else I figure I can just flash that and be done with it. (New to XDA! )
Just install Magisk Manager, download latest pie fastboot zip from Developer Overview from Essential website and grab the boot img and patch it

You need to fastboot boot twrp image and then sideload twrp installer, then magisk 18 on top of that.

Updating removes root, so you have to do it all over again. It's what has to be done with A/B partitions (unless flashing full update from twrp or going the uninstall/restore images magisk-flash to other slot route).

Are you serious right now? Your can't find it either because your haven't downloaded it or haven't looked in the right directory for the zip. Download magisk boot into TWRP choose install navigate to the directory the zip is stored in then choose it and swipe to flash. And FYI anything you download normally goes to the Download folder.
Use one of the rooting tools it will do all for you, more simple.
9.0.11 don't prevent any method of rooting, it's in your side that something is wrong

Uninstall Magisk with the .zip from their site. Github here
Instal stock recovery like you did to install custom recovery.
Next, download the C.27 update and run it from the file manager. Phone will reboot and start updating
After update, just do the whole process to root C.27 version like for Android 9.

I tried several thins to install Magisk succesfully with no luck.
I received my Global x2 Pro this thursday and i successfully unlocked the bootloader and flashed twrp recovery. But when I flask the magisk 20.4 zip and reboot my device, i get an error saying that my boot / recovery partition is corrupt. I have to install C27 again from twrp and it boots up.
Can anybody help me how to install Magisk succesfully? It's driving me nuts. Also, i cant download the vbmeta.img from the OP. So i tried to extract the vbmeta.img from the c27 image to flash, but also no lucck
Edit: Finally having it working with the Orangefox recovery with the vbmeta.img. I thought that the link in OneDrive wasnt working, but it was my home networks which was blocking OneDrive. Problem solved!

It's possible if someone makes a flashable zip, though I dont know of that can be done for every phone. Otherwise you need a stock recovery to install the OTA.

Like @adsubzero said. Unless you have a custom ozip file to flash on TWRP, you need to have stock recovery to install a standard ozip.

In the backup options I don't see system, only system image. Does anyone else have this issue?
so, i had my op 6t bricked and in a bootloop to fastboot
i managed to recover my data through twrp, but couldnt get lineage to run again, so i used the msm tool to downgrade to android 9 oos
now when i try to install a custom recovery i the phone freezes in this "the bootloader is unlocked warning"-screen
no idea why i cant boot into a custom recovery, with a unlocked oem
my plan is to get it back to run lineage os with twrp recovery
can u maybe help me?
I wasn't able to boot into twrp since a11. Had to install from magisk in booted oos using twrp installer. Not sure why it wouldn't work if you downgraded but maybe not using the correct twrp? Sounds like things are messed up. I would start from scratch and get a clean oos on both slots. If you can't boot into twrp then root with magisk and install directly from magisk manager with the installer.
So I am on 11.1.2.2, how do I get twrp installed on this. I cannot get twrp to boot past the logo. I have been trying to Flash HAVOC but have been stuck
Easiest way is to get the newest twrp that just came out. Root with magisk. And using the twrp installer not the image just install directly from magisk.

You need to flash a magisk modded boot in fastboot from your oos. Someone has a post somewhere in here hosting them I'll try to get a link for you.
so fastboot flash boot_a and b like usual for the patched boot image and then once in android just open magisk, then install the latest twrp from there? I think that's what put me in crash dump mode before

Wow. Alright. You all need to remember this. Msm only flashes to slot a. NOT slot b. So, if you were previously in A10 or A11 and flash msm OOS 9, there will be issues unless you local update the same android version to slot b. You can't have 2 different android version on your slots unless you're using dualboot mod. Like on 8 pro, crashdump happens when twrp is installed if both slots aren't using the same android version
