Good night people. I have a motorola G4 xt1626. For some time I have been trying to activate root in it, but without success. I have already done the following tests:
* android 7.0 + elemental + supersu.
* android 7.0 + elemental * magisk 18
* android 9.0 + Gapps + magisk 18
I am currently using android 9.0, but without success in getting root.
When installing magisk by TWRP, it says that it has been installed successfully, but it does not activate root.
Please help me.....

I have problems on installing magisk on my Moto G4. I have unlocked the bootloader and flashed twrp. When I installed ElementalX Kernel since it's a requirement for magisk to work, my phone just boots fine. But when I will install the latest or old versions of magisk, My phone gets stuck in a boot loop. I tried supersu ans other kernels but no luck of booting my phone with magisk installed. Is there anything that I did wrong? My phone only boots without magisk/supersu installed.
UPDATE: I used Vegito Kernel and now my phone boots with magisk installed.
Stock ROM doesn't like Magisk/SuperSU. You need to reflash the original boot image for it to boot again and I think it'll remove root access. From my experience, a custom ROM improves the hackability of the phone a fair bit (I'm using official Havoc OS, which looks like Android 9 but is based on Android 8.1. It's quite stable actually)

Hello everybody !
I'm a bit at loss with my phone, and I'd love some help. I've been reading threads for several hours, but couldn't find any solid answer.
My situation : I updated from LineageOS 16 + MicroG to LineageOS 18.1 using adb and TWRP. Once installed, I found out that there was no root access for apps on 18.1. I tried to install Magisk via TWRP to gain said root access, but I can't (due to the error `Cannot unmount /system` in TWRP). I tried various solutions from XDA or elsewhere to solve this, but none worked.
Because of this, I'm a bit stuck. Root access is essential for several apps that I use, and I'm starting to wonder if it's possible to have LineageOS 18.1 + MicroG + root access.
Did it work for any of you ? If so, how did you do it ? And if not, is there a safe way to come back to LineageOS 16 ?
Hello,
It took me some time but I finally did it. I upgraded from Stock to LIneageOS latest version (Android 12L).
It took me some time because I think there was a problem during installation. Each time I installed, Google Play could not connect to wifi.
I followed the officila guide from Lineage : https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/fajita/install
I suggest you do the same.
After the installation - here is the trick - you need to start and run Lineage OS on your phone.
Then reboot the phone to recovery (press Power + Volume Down during boot for 5 seconds)
Do a Reset of the data - This is the second trick and not explained in the official guide.
Go back to the ADB SIDELOAD and install the latest MindTheGapps : https://wiki.lineageos.org/gapps
Restart and run lineageOS and check that everything is fine.
Now go back to recovery mode and you can install Magisk. https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk
(Tip: You can rename the APK to ZIP to install it).
Problem : Safety Net is not passing. I tried everything (installing the safetynet-fix and the MagiskHidePropsConf. No Success! :-(
Good luck
OK. I gave up on the original LineageOS for Android 12.
I installed https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-6t-gapps-ota-updates-safetynet-twrp.4494053/
like you would install the default Lineage OS.
Then I booted and it was passing the SafetyNet which is normal as it is not rooted.
TWRP becomes the new bootloader. I
After that I booted back in TWRP tADB SIDELOAD to load the latest Magisk.
I booted and was hiding Magisk and activated Zygisk. I also Enforce deny List and Configure it to Google Play and Google Wallet.
After a reboot it still passes SafetyNet.
SUCCESS!
I just noted that because google recognize the phone as a NEXUS. Surelly because the SAFETY NET is spoofed by the ROM. Not sure of the implications of that!
