I want to use magisk for multiple users. I tried making new user and install magisk manager but magisk 20.4 was not detected as installed even though I am rooted. Is it possible to have root for multiple users?

I've been experiencing a weird issue since I installed DU on my 6p; a lot of apps crash when I try to open them until I use Magisk Hide on them. Not just user apps, I couldn't even connect to my JBL speakers via bluethoot until I hided root to my bluethoot-share system application. I can't get chrome (or anyhting related to it, like the in-app browser of Facebook) to work, and i've tried a lot of versions of Chrome and even Opera; the only thing I could get working it's Firefox. I can't even change my wallpaper (my launcher crashes).
On the other hand, apps that support root, like amaze file manager, work smoothly even without being granted root permission.
I'm a noob, so i have no idea what's causing the problem, but i'll try my best to give you my setup in case you can help me.
- I'm using official Dirty Unicorns ROM v11.3 (7.1.2) with the correspondent stock kernel (unicornblood)
- I'm rooted by chainfire's SuperSU v2.79
I don't know if the mods i've installed have anything to do, but i'll share them just in case
I installed these audio mods:
- Hi-Performance DAC Enabler:
- aptX™ HD Enabler
- AINUR Pandora
This other thermal mod: CTTmod
And I'm using Magisk v12.0
Thank you very much in advance
I don't think you can use Magisk and SuperSu at the same time because Magisk includes its own root app, PhilsSu. You are basically using two different root apps at the same time. You can try uninstalling SuperSu or Magisk but you might be better off doing a clean flash of DU, Gapps then either SuperSu or Magisk but not both.

When I tried to install magisk without SuperSU it asked me to root my device first and aborted installation
I've never used Magisk but I thought PhilsSu was part of it. I suppose you can download PhilsSu separately and flash it before Magisk but I know that's the rooting app that works with Magisk, not SuperSu.

Now that I think about it I'm pretty sure I read that you can uninstall SuperSu using the Play Store app then choose to root with PhilsSu within Magisk if you have both installed at the same time.
Magisk v12 is its own root solution. It doesn't use SuperSU & it doesn't use PHH superuser either. It's its own thing now. Magisk Hide does not hide SuperSU, only its own root. So if you're using Magisk Manager to hide apps while SuperSU is installed, it's literally doing nothing. Your root is not hidden and you should be able to confirm this using a root checker app. I guess it's possible that having both is causing your issues, but I follow the Magisk general support thread and never see issues that severe. I'd guess it's a stability issue on your ROM.
If you want to use Magisk Hide correctly, you need to get rid of SuperSU. Select the full unroot option from the settings. Hop on over to osm0sis thread here and grab and flash the unsu.zip he has over there. Then flash your ROMs boot.img again (unless it's rooted). That'll completely wipe SuperSU and let you use Magisk.
So basically (stock phone > unlock bootloader > install TWRP > flash Magisk v12) and now you're rooted. No SuperSU / anything else is involved. V12 literally roots you and you need to clean up SuperSU to use it properly.

Thank you very much, that clarifies a lot for me and it did the trick, i clean flashed DU and rooted with Magisk v12, everything's perfect now:good:
Hi,
I have tried to install Magisk on my rooted Sprint S7 a few times now, and each time the phone gets bricked. The first time, I flashed the magisk zip with FlashFire, and the second time, I used the Magisk Manager app to do the installation. Both times, the phone booted into a blue screen saying something to the effect of unsafe software being flashed and for security purposes the phone is locked up. I am new to Magisk and I am not quite sure what I am doing wrong. The goal in installing Magisk is to be able to use xposed features of Greenify, which I cannot use because the PurifyOS version of xposed is not compatible with the greenify module. Can anyone please help?
Magisk is a systemless root which can not be used on locked bootloaders
Hello,
I have rooted my Samsung galaxy j5. And the root process completed successfully. But when I try to configure apps in supersu there is no apps shown in the configuration list. I set the supersu in grant access but did not work. I need help in this regard.
Thanks.
Try to reflash super su and if it doesn't do the trick you could consider flashing magisk. It's the same thing but with a different interface and more options.
I have Resurrection Remix, and I have Magisk fabrically in my phone. It's an amazing root manager. I recommend it, much better than
SuperSU.
Just download zip file, put it into your phone, and flash it with your CWM or TWRP.
Hello Everyone,
I'm having a very difficult time while attempting to gain root access to my device.
The bootloader is unlocked and I have successfully installed TWRP and tried several different ROMs trying to get a feel for one I like the best. I have also attempted to use TWRP to install both Magisk and SuperSU (not at the same time) and both methods appear to install successfully, but when I reboot to phone and use any root checker apps, they all say that the phone has no root access.
This has been going on now for several days. I keep attempting various methods and nothing works. Any chance someone could suggest a method that actually will work to gain root access? This is getting to be very frustrating.
Thanks!
Tim
I learned that with magisk installed via TWRP you sometimes have to install magisk manager app for android by hand. Only with magisk manager app other apps can be granted root access.

Thank you for that advice. Magisk Manager did indeed have to be installed by hand. I was never able to get the last two versions (18.1 or 17.3) working for me however. I finally obtained root access using v17.1.

Apps checking for root for security reasons can he tricked with Magisk. Probably the same for DRM.

What do you mean mate can you help me doing it? Please!
Did you install the Lineage SU tool or the old SuperSU or root via one of the apps like Kingo Root?
Then install Magisk.zip via TWRP and later install Magisk Manager.

I couldn't understand you mate all I did was unlock bootloader then flash pixel experience and install magisk via twrp I never used kingroot I have LG h870 europe
Then you have already the optimal conditions to hide root from apps via Magisk Manager. If the netflix app is smarter than that, there's probably no hope. I have one banking app which can recognize root despite Magisk Hide, but works after a warning.
(and Netflix currently throttles bandwidth due to "certain circumstances", probably therefore no 4K)

even with a custom ROM mate? u can hide root using magisk ? but since update 20.4 there's no magisk hide except Magisk props config i guess u can spoof hardware using it ( sorry for being noob here )
My LG870 still has stock & no root.
But my older Samsung devices have LOS16&17, Magisk 20.4 and Magisk Hide available.
