strange stuff happening after magisk install

for the longest time on my OnePlus 5, i refused to root...finally gave in and installed magisk tonight. everything seems to be working, except that when i try to install or update anything via the play store it takes FOREVER. it either gets stuck on "downloading" before actually doing anything, or downloads the entire app/update and then sits there for a few minutes before actually installing it.
I also have the location icon flashing repeatedly on the status bar. never seen that before.
it was working before installing magisk, that was the only change. any ideas?
edit: example, trying to install turo gets to 60% and stops every single time. download status icon disappears from the statusbar and the download completely stops at 60% (same exact number) every time.

Try using the magisk systemless gapps

Is it the beta or the stable Magisk? I've been using Magisk on this device since day one and never had any issues.

Crash while opening Magisk from settings

Hey guys. I am currently on resurrection remix 5.8.5 nougat on my Lenovo a6000 plus(2gb varient).
I have a pretty wired issue, when I open Magisk manager app normally by tapping on the app in my home screen it opens and works fine no problem. But when I open Magisk from settings (The settings app has a option for Magisk) the settings app just crashes. I have attached a log for when the crash occurs. Thanks in advance for helping.

Some apps wont works in Resurrection Remix

Apps like Snapchat refuse to work due to root i have tried magisk hide, core only mode but both fails
Else Like App wont work at all
Tiktok lags too much

Not hiding root

Hello, I've recently installed the newest version of LineageOS17.1 on my beloved S5. I'm using Magisk (latest version) and I tried hiding my root via 1st - changing the package name and 2nd - Magisk Hide. I used to play a lot of Pokemon GO and it was working perfectly fine on LineagesOS 15, back then. Sadly, it's no longer working - this time, however, I'm using my phone not only for Pokemon GO (that inflicts a problem with rooted phones) but also a bank app. It's crucial for me to use the bank app as it has a limit and whenever I'd like to spend >50$, I have to enter a code which is generated on the app only. So, is there a way to properly hide my root?
I'm on LineageOS17.1, with mod for increased speaker volume and custom kernel (Tuned Kernel by fbs).

Did you try toggling Magisk hide off/on as per Magisk support thread?

@Didgeridoohan has a good article on the matter here:

Principially Magisk Hide is working in this state and e. g. my banking app was, too.
Other users have full support, but i don't know what's wrong here.
Everything Magisk was special when i tried Los17. Bootlooping after a Magisk update with successful reboot after the umpteenth time.
Endless boot after installation of the Youtube Vanced module. Entering TWRP at boot also was impossible(but you could access Fastboot), but there seemed to be some watchdog timer and after about 30min Twrp came up instead of the os.

Games Crashing on Root! Unroot my S8+ G955FD

Ever since I rooted my S8+ (G955FD) I'm facing issues with games like Pubg, FreeFire, COD crashes to home screen without any error or warning message. Free Fire crashes are not that frequent as compared to Pubg or COD where I can't even finish a game. Crashes are random mostly at gameplay and sometimes right from game menu to home screen crash.
Tried many solutions clearing app data and cache, uninstall and reinstalling, wipe cache partition. I have about 45% free space so no space issue.
As a last resort I'm going to unroot my phone.
I have Rooted my phone using Magisk.
Could you guys please point me to the latest official stock firmware and stock recovery for the device.
Is this right for me:
Download Galaxy S8+ SM-G955FD (PAK) G955FXXSBDTJ1 in Samfw - Samsung firmware download
Galaxy S8+ SM-G955FD (PAK - Pakistan) G955FXXSBDTJ1 Pie(Android 9) samsung firmware download all model, lastest, fast update, completely free and fast speed in Samfw.com ✅

Smart switch shows an update too. Will this help if I update it using Smart Switch? Will this remove the root and TWRP?

Hello, it actually doesn't seem your phone is the issue. Nor would root be, but have you tried magisk hide on Google play store, google play services / ar services, and cod?
I didn't have root, cod would crash mid game, at launch or in the menu. I rooted and all, still crashes. I googled:"COD Mobile crashing on galaxy" and people have the problem with an s8, and a note. Its not you, it might just be cod, it gets my phone hot, maybe it overheats too fast. I'd check your logcat when it crashes. Download the logcat from play store to track it.

Well, it's not just COD. Same problem with PUBG and Garena Free Fire (although here it isn't that frequent).
Nevertheless, I had gone stock and it didn't helped. I'm still having same issue.

Yes pubg did it to me also. And as for upgrading it's always worth a try. You must do it this way if you are rooted to prevent boot loop. ota updates are a no no on root
[GUIDE] Easy way to update a rooted phone without losing data using FlashFire
Hello! A lot of us have already rooted our phone however when it comes to then updating firmware it can be a pain where you have to re-root your device and maybe lose your settings and data. However, I found a way through Chainfire’s brilliant...

@tahirk also please look at the results here from others with the same phone and same issue recently. Maybe someone found a solution there.
Give it a look- https://www.google.com/search?clien...GYAQCgAQHIAQjAAQE&sclient=mobile-gws-wiz-serp

Had the same issue -> COD randomly crashing
conf :
- havoc 3.12
- RZ Kernel 20200822
- Magisk 21.4
- Magisk hide 5.4
- COD Mobile 1.0.19
Solution :
1) Close COD & clear COD's cache
2) Close & clear Google play's cache
3) Magisk hide -> check COD & Google play & maybe Google play services (was already checked for Google pay)
Now I'm playing without issues.
Maybe u still have the issue on stock because your knox is tripped :
I tried with a work profil :
- OneUI rom Horizon 4.9 -> Device policy verification KO
- Stock samsung with tripped knox 0x1 -> Device policy verification KO
- AOSP rom Havoc 3.12 -> Device policy verification OK
