MAGISK root for sprint htc 10?

I have been using TWRP+SuperSU on my HTC 10 (sprint). However, I am not happy not being able to use Android Pay due to root. I searched and found a MAGISK root can do the trick.. I searched and was surprise to find not much of info on this variant.
I only found this: [ROOT] Magisk AutoRoot: Magisk + phh's SuperUser for Nougat (No TWRP required). But that's for the Unlocked version:
Prebuilt Boot Images:
US Unlocked: US_Unlocked_2.28.617.8_boot.zip
I assume I cannot use above boot image for Sprint variant. My question is, where to get this prebuilt boot image for Sprint?
I am on Android 7.0 (2.42.651.6).
Thanks!!

Thank you. I am following the guide you provided..
"If you're not rooted, or something went wrong and you need a clean start
(Recommended) Restore your boot image back to stock
Download the latest Magisk zip file
If you choose to use SuperSU (only support Android 6.0+), first flash SuperSU in systemless mode
Flash Magisk zip
Reboot, and update the stub Magisk Manager to the latest from Play Store
"​
Can you please let me know how to Flash Magik zip? I am on Stock Android 7.0 by RUU. Custom Recovery (TWRP) is gone... Downloading to download mode does not have an option to install zip.... Install Magisk Manger gives me this.. Still requires boot image? Thanks.

Try my post from the Bad Boyz ROM thread. I'm pretty sure that covers it all. If you're already RUU'd you can skip that part, but you will need to unlock your bootloader if you haven't already. I think that factory resets the phone. There's another thread on how to do that via HTCDev that should be stickied, but the process is easy.

Edit: I see you're already in the process on the other thread. Good luck!

There were 2 boxes that could be checked did you check either of them? I checked both and was going to try without checking them but also figured they would update the rom soon and it would be in there. t/u

No, you don't explicitly need recovery (TWRP) to install Magisk.
You do need recovery to install kernels or anything similar.
Magisk has a function that will patch the boot image file if you have a copy on the phone.
You can then copy that patched file to your computer and use fastboot to flash the patched boot image.
I have used that method before.

Well... Here's my take...
You know how to do that... Therefore YOU don't need recovery...
If someone with all the information available is still going to ask the question... Then THAT PERSON will NEED recovery...
Welcome to XDA

Need patched boot file
Does anyone have a patched boot file for Magisk on Essential Phone for the latest Android P Beta? The Magisk app won't patch my boot image and won't tell me why. If I have the file from somewhere else I figure I can just flash that and be done with it. (New to XDA! )

Just install Magisk Manager, download latest pie fastboot zip from Developer Overview from Essential website and grab the boot img and patch it

[Android 10 - Stable] Root

Is there any way to root Android 10 stable after incremental update from Android 9?
Patched boot.img breaks wifi and freezes on calls/breaks sound.
The only tool I can find seems to require not to reboot, though it is already too late for that, unless I downgrade.

using elementalX kernel op6-4.00 now, it works.

Sorry but how can you root using a kernel?
Either I misunterstood the question or you did ?

Thank you for your answers but I didn't understand either...

Here's how I rooted my device.
Downloaded the update
Installed it via local upgrade
Flashed the twrp a/b retention script via magisk
Then,I installed magisk to inactive partition via magisk manager
Rebooted and the system was running perfectly with twrp and root access still there.
Note: Data in twrp will stay encrypted using this method.

Did you have root pre-instaled? Did you reboot between the first and second step? Could you please tell me where to find the a/b retention script?

I did the same as you,upgraded to Android 10 but downgraded to 9 and followed the above steps as I couldn't find a proper way to root when already on 10.
You need to have root and twrp to use this method.
Only reboot after you have flashed the script and installed magisk to the inactive slot.
You can find the script by searching on magisk manager.

Thanks! Did you downgrade with MSM tool?

you won't get any issues with WiFi or Bluetooth if you use the right kernel...
i get my 6T upgrade to Android 10 same as you did ,after i flash twrp and magisk i found my phone cant even be touch. so i flash Android 10 upgrade zip again and use the ex kernel app to download the kernel zip .then flash twrp,magisk,ex kernel,done.now my phone works perfectly.

How to update to the latest version?

Ok so i'm running now OOS Stable 10.0 with TWRP running, and Magisk ofc.
Now, i used this guide -
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6t/how-to/guide-how-to-twrp-data-decryption-t3995861
To update from 9.0.17 to 10.0
But never tried to update from 10.0.
Can i update like the usual process ?
Enter Recovery > Flash ROM > Flash TWRP > Flash Magisk ?
Or i need to do it differently .
Edit : I want to update from 10.0 to OB3.

Why would it be different?
It seems complicated enough for people to catch up with only one logical method, I dare not imagine what it would be if there were different procedures....

If you do it this way make sure you update to the latest version of TWRP that was released today (3.3.1-30) before upgrading the ROM.

Open magisk manager and restore boot.img.
Update locally in system settings.
Dont reboot.
Install magisk to inactive slot in magisk manager.
Reboot and provit.
No need for twrp.

And why would you need TWRP?
You don't need boot.img. Magisk automatically backups the original boot.img and patches it. That way you can restore it thru magisk manager. And patch the new boot.img (install to in-active slot) after local upgrade.

Well, that doesn't answer the question: why do you need TWRP?

The problem is that you ask for a recipe, without knowing clearly what you're doing when applying the recipe.
Yes you can update with local update while keeping Magisk and twrp. See first posts of OOS 10.0.1 thread in Guide section.
Yes you can update from within twrp, the way ROMs are fleshed since nearly a decade
Yes you can flash twrp with Magisk manager, since months it's a basic knowledge.
No you don't need stock boot.img
Don't follow the guide you quote WHICH WAS WRITTEN WHEN NO WORKING TWRP was available for A10. It's outdated now. Use regular and classical procedures

Alright, well then it is useful.
IMHO, i recommend using stock OOS and root only. Because it already is a great rom. You can flash certain extras with magisk manager anyway.
But whatever rows your boat

The answer is in the post you quoted:
'Yes you can flash twrp with Magisk manager, since months it's a basic knowledge"
What I did was open Magisk Manager - go to Modules - click Add (+) - select the TWRP installer (zip) - exit Magisk Manager - reboot to TWRP - reinstall Magisk.
There might be a way to reinstall Magisk from Magisk Manager to the active slot but I'm not sure so I did it through TWRP.

You can just flash blu_spark kernel as well. Then root it with magisk canary manager within the OS. Or make your own patched kernel with magisk canary patch function.

Good morning,
Can you please tell me how to go through flashing blu_spark kernel? Maybe a step by step guide?
Thanks for your time.

This boot img I'm providing is stock rooted.
Command: fastboot boot beta2.img
When your device boots, it will be temporarily rooted, open Magisk Canary and select "install" then "direct install - the recommended option)
When it's done, reboot and you'll be permanently rooted.
- sorry, the img is 101MB, when I try to upload the file it says the file is too big. If you still want the file, contact me on Telegram (AhmadX9)
