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

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
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

Hello. I have LineageOS installed on my SM-G935F. I used to be rooted with magisk 16.0. v17 came out today, I tried to flash it, and got a bootloop. After various installations, uninstallations, and general trauma, I got Magisk 17.1 installed. However, as soon as I try and flash any modules, it says that data/Magisk isn't setup properly, and tells me to install Magisk v14.0+. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
Im using oneplus 6t . I tried to install latest magisk through magisk manager which is giving me powering off message after open my phone.. i tried to uninstall giving me that mag tried with twrp but didnt work
But 18.0 file is working fine also another old magisk uninstaller working .. but after uninstalling with old uninstaller, the new magisk installee still giving me same problem.
My i9506 is on LOS 16.0. After a couple of weeks on a fresh install, I flashed the latest Magisk zipfile and rebooted. However, I don't think it took. I tested by trying to copy a file to the root directory using MiXplorer and it didn't go. I also installed Magisk manager, but it won't show the modules section, which leads me to believe again that installing Magisk failed. Any ideas how to get Magisk working? Is there a permission in Developer Options or elsewhere I have to set? Or do I have to reinstall the OS, followed by Magisk, then the GApps?
