So I just updated Magisk from v11 to v12 and my phone is totally douched up. After rebooting there's an "Unable to use fingerprints" message at the bottom of the screen, the touch screen is janky and my unlock pattern no longer works. The screen goes to sleep randomly too and then comes on without being touched. On the off occasson that the unlock pattern DOES work, the screen loads with no icons, just the page dots and status bar with my wallpaper and nav buttons. Uninstalled Magisk and got the same. Rebooted after uninstall, same thing. I guess I'll be reflashing the ROM, but this is a huge pain in the ass. :/
This isn't a question--more of an answer. DO NOT UPDATE to v12. If you did and have trouble, downgrade to 11.x.
I can second this. Updated to 12.0 and my phone started rebooting randomly and fingerprints started not working. Thought it was something with the rom so clean flashed it again, all was fine till I updated Magisk again. Downgraded to 11.6 and so far no more reboots and fingerprint works.
that's odd. it is working great for me. (currently using Weta 4.9.2 and Tilde's latest kernel + latest magisk manager and magisk 12.0 zip flashed)
Def breaks the systemui and causes the device to repeatedly crash on the ls997.
Was how it acted on pre 11.0 builds for us on v20.
Im testing with the dev on magisk now.
Updated to the latest, no issues here on RR with original kernel.

yeah aosp versus stock lg os act differently
i believe last time ls997 was the only one really having issues, but its breaking ui on the ls997
don't do it
I updated also, put phone in a never-ending 30 seconds to reboot. Had to restore.
Over the last few days I've been having seemingly random instances where the system slows right down, becomes almost completely unresponsive, the home screen goes blank and sometimes only half the screen displays. I then have to long press to power off, but instead of shutting down the phone reboots, then everything is fine again. Usually this has been happening once every few hours, and when left overnight the display doesn't even turn on prior to rebooting (I can use fingerprint sensor and feel it vibrate to unlock though). A few times I have seen the error message saying 'System UI has stopped' but most times I reboot before seeing that.
I was running stock 8.0 unlocked and rooted with TWRP 3.1.1.0 and Magisk 14, and also using the pixel launcher installed as a system app, with no issues previously. I can't remember exactly now, but I am pretty sure I had this occur while on 8.0 prior to updating to 8.1 (possibly following an update to Magisk 15), but mostly it has been happening post-update to 8.1. I followed the stickied guide using step 9 first, and after that was getting very frequent instances. Then realized I was using an old 8.0 pixel launcher app so thought that might be the problem, so re-flashed everything, updated to TWRP 3.2.1.0, re-rooted and installed pixel launcher via the linked post below. Was then stable for almost 24hrs before having the issue re-occur, but with longer gaps between successive instances. Yesterday I re-flashed using the flash-all script (8.1) to try to clean out any gremlins - all went smooth, then re-flashed latest TWRP/Magisk and installed pixel launcher. Seemed fine for an hour or so...

Not sure what is going on, I don't think its the zip file, since I checked the hash prior to doing the very first update. Could be the launcher I guess, but wasn't having any issue before so don't see why that would be a problem. Only root apps I'm using are root explorer, naptime and f.lux. Naptime I haven't installed yet on this go around, and f.lux I uninstalled this morning to see if it makes the problem go away. I tried searching around and saw similar issues reported for people using substratum/themes, but I have never used anything like that.
I have a log but can't link it yet...?

Try using supersu again or maybe downgrade magisk. Mine for some reason after going back to supersu randoom reboot stopped. This even after ive downgraded to 8.0 thinking 8.1 was the reason though it was running fine before.

Thanks will give it a shot and report back. Like I said I think the instability coincided with an upgrade from Magisk 14.0 to 15.0 which happened right before I went to 8.1, so going back to 14.0 might be the first step for me.
Were yours just random reboot or also the system glitching/freezing?

Well... flashed the Magisk uninstaller from 15.1 and re-flashed 14.0 and no system crashes yet.
However now I can't enable assistant vice activation. Possibly a separate issue I suppose, but it was working before.
Edit: Uninstalled Google app updates and reapplied from play store and now working.
So just as a follow up I've been running fine on Magisk 14 without issue for some time now. Have not tried the recent 15.2 release.
However f.lux is not behaving normally and for some reason is acting almost like a yellow filter. I found the thread below which seems to indicate some issue between f.lux / Android 8.1 / Magisk.
https://forum.justgetflux.com/topic/4667/f-lux-not-compatible-with-android-oreo-8-1/7
I have been having this exact problem on my Nexus 6P. Glad to know that I'm not going crazy. The switchover point for me was exactly from Magisk 14.5 to 14.6. 14.5 works fine for me with no issues. 14.6 and onwards (including 15.2) has exhibited this behavior very regularly.
One thing that I just tried that might have "fixed" it is I recently was in 15.2 beta (installed via TWRP) and it was having the problem. I was on the beta in order to capture some of its verbose logs. At one point, I wanted to just try a different installation method so I made sure to check the two options in the MagiskManager ("forced encryption" and "dm-verity") so that they are on and then reinstalled Magisk 15.2 directly from MM. After doing that, I haven't seen the issue crop up, so maybe installing from MM to make sure that it uses those options on install is the way to address this? I'll update if I see any more issues.
Thanks for the replies here and in the Magisk beta thread.
After installing with your described method/settings I reinstalled f.lux, and had a couple of glitch/reboots. I then uninstalled f.lux and I'm now over 24hrs without going into the glitched state. So it seems maybe this a compound issue. Can you confirm whether you had this or another similar app installed? I've seen other reports of this kind of behavior when using substratum.

Hey just a heads up - I am now on opm3 (Jan) and 15.2 beta with the just preserve encryption checked and no glitches yet after ~15hrs. Will be installing f.lux soon to see if it triggers.
Installed f.lux and maybe an hour later started glitching. Uninstalled and had to reboot to clear things up, and now haven't had a glitch since. So definitely the source of the issue, but it's a compound thing since it only started happening since Magisk 14.6 onward. However, there are other reports saying f.lux hasn't been behaving properly on both 8.0 and 8.1, so likely not the fault of Magisk at all.
Hey, I was linked to this thread from Magisk thread, I had the same issue on my Nexus 5X with Magisk 14.6+, so I uninstalled f.lux and issue is gone as you said. Now I'm testing CF.lumen on Magisk 15.3 and it is w/o any issue so far.
Hey' y'all Color be crazy but....
About 3 days ago I checked for updates OTA, and got a new sequrity patch.
but the last 3 days since...
Phone calls Go right to my voicemail box they dont even ring on my phone....
And my [defualt]texting app constantly shows a little cloud crossed out saying no service
Anywheres I had 4gLTE Is now 3g ONLY and i can only do things on the internet thats it, but its slow as a dog.
Airplane mode on-off doesn't work I dialed that *#*# .. (insertnumbers) #*#* for testing and
switching how my phone recieves signal didn't work,
Factory reset from inside my settings + Hard reset from recovery made 0 difference.
Ill recieve all my texts but cant reply to them by rebooting my phone they all come in at once when my phone turns on but them my message app stops working again
-----------
Called my provider (TOTAL WIRELESS,) They said everything fine on thier end nothing they can do. So I called Huawai, and Verizon... got no where.
So im thinking... Its the update patch, or i need a new sim card.. So where / how Do I get the Nexus 6p's STOCK ROM So I can reinstall and how do i do that?
Should i try that? wait for another patch? or request a new sim.... Because as of right now my phones a brick and i use it for work.

Your not alone my friend I had the same issue with Aprils update. Just randomly during the day I would stop receiving texts and phone calls. I just assumed I was in some kind of bad zone even though had never happened before. Wasn't until my favorite stock build SuperXe got updated to Mays that I switched and haven't had the problem since. Right now I'm on Lineage 15's June build and wow it has come a long way pretty solid no issues. You will have to do some research on unlocking your bootloader and flashing stock images. You can find them if you search "Google API Nexus 6p." Check out Hiesenbergs tutorials on XDA on returning to stock on the flashing procedure. Its the same for flashing stock images of any month you choose. I got simple fastboot 1.4.3 from XDA as well instead of installing Google's fastboot .

Ok first you want to boot up and finish initial setup before rooting. Second you want to root with Magisk 16.0 zip. You don't have to root unless your planning on modifying system files or using a special app. You can fix or unroot by reflashing just the boot.img from the firmwarwe or Rom you are currently running .

well i got up and running (8.0 no updates yet) and my 4g lte / Texting capabilities ARE BACK!!!!.
Also, Can i still root, APP side? or does it have to be through flash?
thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
Is there a way to report this issue to google so they can fix it?

I'm sure there's a way to root with app but just as easy to flash TWRP and install Magisk. Which has nice easy feature of hiding root and passing safety net. That way you get a certified playstore and still use android pay to name a few. If your interested let me know I can explain the process after flashing Magisk.
Hi folks, my stock 6T just offered me the 9.0.12 update. I'm holding off for now as everything works well on 11, but interested to hear experiences.
My only gripe with 11 is idle battery drain that occurs after about 48 hours post boot; no drain problem before that.

I have the OnePlus 6T McLaren edition, I'm in the U.S.A and have a T-Mobile SIM in it (but it's not the T-Mobile version of the phone). I got notified of the update about an hour ago. It detected my phone was rooted so it downloaded the full version of the upgrade, not just a patch file. It then auto-installed the update just fine (I haven't modified my recovery). It booted up just fine and everything is looking good. I did a few simple test calls and loaded a few apps, nothing looked out of the ordinary. I can't speak to battery life or performance though.
I'm now using a direct-launched TWRP to re-flash the ElementalX 3.10 kernel and the Magisk 18.1 zip files (to hide the unlocked bootloader from the OS and also have root back with the ability to hide root from various programs). Those are the only 2 mods I've ever installed on this phone and they've proven solid.
Sometimes reading mode fails to work.... I restarted the phone and worked perfectly
My device bootloops with RescueParty into TWRP with 9.0.12. I believe Magisk is the cause of the problem because as soon as I flash it in TWRP, the device will immediately bootloop into TWRP with RescueParty. The only way to recover was to flash the 9.0.12 boot.img to both boot partitions. So if you plan to use Magisk and Magisk modules, you might want to stick on 9.0.11 for now.

Seems really good here. No complaints. Gaming is much smoother and wifi seems much more stable for me too. I like it
Can't believe how fast I got the update. With a "Google" phone I had to wait weeks even over a month sometimes and sideloading on Windows 10 is a PITA when it decides not to find the phone even though it did only a few minutes ago.

You guys could try uninstalling magisk from TWRP, and reflshing it. It worked for me after struggling with the bootloop.

I used a python script to extract the image from the update .zip. Also reinstalling Magisk does nothing to solve the issue. 18.0 I know worked in 9.0.11, I only ran 18.1 for a little while. Neither fix the issue.
A quick update, it seems that @AleiATCG's suggestion worked for me. I uninstalled Magisk using their uninstaller and reinstalled Magisk 18.1 and voila.. I booted into the rom.
Fingerprint Scanner Null after Pie ROM Flash - Custom ROM won't fix. Stock Only
Ok, the story.... Moto G5+ retail, running 8.1 Oreo, Bootloader Unlocked, rooted using Magisk 16.7 and was able to backup my Stock Oreo ROM once rooted, or I'd be dead in the water.
So wanting to stay ahead, I tried my hand at RR v7's Pie version, which, after some troubleshooting, was able to install successfully; but I don't much care for the google bar and other hard-coded "pure android" features. Same thing with Pixel Exp. Not to mention that Pie disallows call recording among a few other things Google decided to stifle its customers with. Deal breaker. So - moving on...or back for that matter.
I proceeded to download RRv6, which is btw running nicely on a 2nd G5+, same GApps, installs perfect except - FingerPrint Reader is not acknowledged. Period. No Security settings, No RR Config to access it, Nada. No matter what ROM I flash outside of the StockROM I backed up, it won't recognize the fp reader upon boot up. Whether I clear Dalvik/Cache, All DATA, do a full Wipe, DATA WIPE, REPAIR, FORMAT, nothing allows me to install RR v6.0 or any other flavor, Oreo or Pie, even while trying a dirty flash over Stock Oreo on this Moto G5+. Tried with several SD Cards, downloading fresh zip files from RR. I even went so far as to image the working G5+, then copy into the 2nd G5's SN folder, and do a restore, just loops - even after repairing the partition. I managed to work around that, Restored the image, but still no FP recognized by the initial Google startup/setup. It's almost as if the phone's been "firmwared" or "tagged".
Any ideas what could be lingering from Android Pie that would survive a F2FS/exT Format? Because something updated some kind of firmware on the phone during a Pie ROM flash, that now won't let me go back to anything below Pie, with a working fingerprint reader. The only difference between the G5 that works and this one is the working one has never seen Android 9. And it's staying that way til we come up with a way to hack the google crap.
Any help would be - awesome to say the least.
Thanks for looking.
Hello,
The issue with fingerprint is that after flashing stock Oreo ROM it replaces some files related to fingerprint sensor.
Hence all the newer custom ROM builds use the Oreo firmware related files. Hence it worked on the Pie ROM.
RR v6 would be still using the old nougat firmware hence you need to flash a file for it work. Which will replace the fingerprint related files for Nougat Stock firmware:
https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1322778262904029634
In case you want to revert the changes and use Pie ROMs:

That would make sense if PHONE1 manifested the same thing. But I went from StockOreo to RRv6-Oreo w/out losing anything and having to flash any FP Firmware. I used the RRv6 Official from 18-0911. Which is what's been leading me to believe there's something awry with this 2nd G5. I wonder is it possible PHONE2 has some slight firmware variance that is simply ignoring during the RR flash? Anyway, I'll give this a shot. this is TWRP flash, not fastboot, yes? Just being clear as I'm not proficient at this just yet.
Thanks Sharan!

Sweet! I had to reflash from scratch as for some reason it wouldn't let me update the ROM already running. But once I re-flashed RRv6-8.1, then flashed FP, it's now back. You rock Sharyn - nice work!
Now if only we found a way to cleanup that Pie - hate the perpetual time stamp, search bar and inability to record voice. Which is why I'm staying on Oreo til further notice. I know it was Google who took it away on v9.
Thanks again Shar!

Crap - so turns out this solution was short-lived. FingerPrint Scanner is back to inactive and FPzip isn't fixing it. Only StockOreo brings it back. Tried a plethora of ROMs from Nougat to Oreo, nothing but Pie and stock Oreo. Symptoms say it's the ROM, but a ROM that is currently working on the 1st G5 won't work either. Still looking for solutions, anyone...
