Magisk and TWRP together in recovery? I am missing some knowledge ... - Samsung Galaxy Tab S5e Questions & Answers

Yesterday I followed this instruction:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/tab-s5e/how-to/galaxy-tab-s5e-sm-t720-root-t3947806
and got my Tablet rooted by Magisk with stock ROM.
Next: I want LinageOs on this device, so I had to install TWRP. For TWRP I followed the links on top of the mentioned XDA-thread:
Go HERE if you are interested in custom recovery (e.g., TWRP).

which got me to this page:
https://twrp.me/samsung/samsunggalaxytabs5ewifi.html
There is this advice:
You are therefore strongly advised to first root your device with Magisk and then pre-root a TWRP image before flashing it to recovery.

I followed the link in this advice an read both 3 times, but I am not sure, what this means.
Next was wiki.lineageos-page for the TAB S5e:
https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/gts4lvwifi/install
which I also read, but none the wiser. And for more confusing: in the suitable download-page is besides the linage-file a recovery-image, which is not mentioned anywhere. Or I am blind ...
What I at least did: installed TWRP with the TWRP-app and could boot into this custom recorery and installed LineageOS. The Tab S5 is running fine with LinaegeOS but without root ...
What must be done to root?

I flashed the default TWRP into recovery, installed LineageOS from TWRP, and then followed these instructions: https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-7/how-to/install-magisk-android-11-r-100-t4162761
I have working installation of TWRP and Magisk now.

If your device does not have ramdisk in boot images, Magisk has no choice but to be installed in the recovery partition. ... When Magisk is installed in your recovery, you CANNOT use custom recoveries to install/upgrade Magisk! The only way to install/upgrade Magisk is through Magisk Manager. The app will be aware of your device state and install to the correct partition and reboot into the correct mode.

All I can tell you is that I didn't preroot anything. (My device is the LTE variant, but I think it doesn't matter other than needing the correct TWRP and Lineage image).
I started with a stock ROM and locked bootloader.
Unlocked the bootloader and installed the current TWRP image via ODIN (In my case, this one: https://dl.twrp.me/gts4lv/, you will want this: https://dl.twrp.me/gts4lvwifi/).
Installed LineageOS 18.0 and GApps through TWRP sideload.
Booted and set up Lineage.
Downloaded the three files from the thread I linked. Installed them and rebooted in the order given.
Finally, updated Magisk Manager and Magisk to the Beta-Channel (21.1) through Magisk Manager.
Done. I have root.

Finally, updated Magisk Manager and Magisk to the Beta-Channel (21.1) through Magisk Manager.

I installed both Magisk Manager and Magisk from the files in the other thread. That is a custom version, which I updated to Beta after installing.

I don't find LOS 18, please give me a hint ...

Right here in the ROMs section.
Obligatory disclaimer: LOS 18 is still a preview and more likely to have bugs than 17.1, but I'm more than happy with it so far.

@topjohnwu
Can you tell anything to this problem? I've read this:
https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html#samsung-system-as-root
Spielmops

I've installed Lineage a few times now on this devices, and I always use the developers instructions here. Then I flash Magisk from TWRP. If you are using LOS 17.1, I just flash it in TWRP. Modules and such can NOT be flashed in TWRP your tablet will not BOOT.
The only version of Magisk that I've found that works in LOS 18 / Android 11 is 297. Links in this post.

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.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71341441&postcount=593
Edit: I see you're already in the process on the other thread. Good luck!

Unlocking bootloader on Orea update?

I've read around that unlocking the bootloader on the axon 7 with the orea update (B04 on A2017G) isn't gonna work and that I need to roll back to nougat (7.1) and then unlock the bootloader that way and then install TWRP.
I'm a noob and I need some help. All I want is android pie and lineage os 16 on top. So could you guys link me to some easy to follow guides on how to get pie and LOS16?
But first I need to understand why I can't just use ADB right now on the oreo axon 7 and get an unlocked bootloader. Why do I have to roll back to nougat?

You're correct on that statement.
You can't unlock the bootloader on Oreo because there is no fastboot support with the Oreo updates. ZTE basically broke another thing. You'll need to EDL flash Nougat 7.1 and then use the EDL Tool or the A7 Toolkit to unlock the bootloader. Afterwards, you can follow the instructions in the LineageOS 16 thread, and flash in this order:
• Flash universal bootstack (Los15.1v2Universal)
• Flash the A2017G Modem
• Flash LOS16 zip
• Flash GApps and/or Magisk
• Reboot to system.
If you get an error whilst trying to flash LOS16 zip, just try flashing it again.
All the guides in the Guides section are outdated.

Thanks for replying when nobody else did. Since this post was a bit old I went ahead and unlocked the bootloader and installed TWRP with magisk, thinking that I could install Lineage later and first I should obtain root. So I installed magisk through TWRP but now whenever I reboot it just goes straight to TWRP and I don't know how to boot into the phone. Any idea about how I can exit twrp?

Magisk doesn't work at all on stock roms unless you use a work-around. The phone not booting is because of that.
For the work-around, check out this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/development/kernel-magisk-17-stock-roms-t3856809
BTW, I'm not sure if this works, I've never tried it. The thread is also a bit old.

could it be a possibility that if I reinstall nougat 7.1 on the phone through TWRP, I'd be able to boot? Or does rooting with magisk completely disable us from installing stock roms without some sort of workaround?
My reasoning is that if the rom installs successfully then I would have booted with magisk in magisk manager and root. Maybe my rom got deleted during this process.

Magisk just prevents the phone from booting. It doesn't delete the rom. If you look in topjohnwu's GitHub page for Magisk, you'll find Magisk Uninstaller right next to where you download Magisk from. Download the Magisk Installer zip, move it over to your phone, and then flash it in TWRP. It'll remove Magisk and you'll be able to boot into your rom again.

Ok I've uninstalled magisk with the latest uninstaller. But now when booting up, the phone is stuck on the "please lock bootloader page" and is not proceeding further. Given that I can still use TWRP, should I just follow the LOS 16 pie instructions and install the bootstack, modem, Gapps and the zip file?
I could root the phone by flashing magisk once I'm done flashing these things right?

Yeah, go ahead and flash Los 16.
Flash your bootstack and modem, and reboot to recovery from TWRP. The TWRP version will have changed. You need to flash latest TWRP image again, use Orden 3.2.3-0 TWRP from LOS 15/16 thread. After that, reboot to recovery and continue with the rest of the steps.
You can flash Magisk whenever you'd like, hell you could even flash it 1 year after running Los 16 haha.

You are my saviour. You've helped me so much. But I'm scared of bricking so please don't be annoyed by me when I ask for confirmation.
So basically I installed the vendor partition using party from @Oki like the LOS 16 guide required.
But now as to the things you told me to do.
First I'll install the universal bootstack for LOS and my model specific modem from https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=270519
Once both are flashed my TWRP version will have changed so I will flash the latest version of TWRP again using fastboot
Then I'll go on ahead and install LOS 16 and GApps
THANK YOU SO MUCH IN ADVANCE.

I just installed LOS 16 and everything seems to be working fine.
But the thing is I downloaded and flashed magisk through TWRP, and the installation went fine. When I booted into LOS even the magisk manager was installed.
But when I installed the root verification app from playstore, it said that the device was not rooted. Any advice? Other than that it feels so good to finally be on a custom ROM. Thanks for your help.
I wish you success and happiness from the bottom of my heart.

Bootloop after trying to root 9.0.9

So for some reason, my phone decided to install the new OTA update of OxygenOS.
I wanted to reinstall Magisk after flashing TWRP back but when I did so, got stuck in a bootloop.
I managed to get my phone back by re-flashing OnePlus5Oxygen_23_OTA_052_all_1910082005_d4a454d1d3e44852.zip but everytime I try to flash Magisk, I go back on that bootloop.
What should I do ? Do I have to wait for a Magisk Update ?
Thanks
I'm glad u asked this bc my op5 keeps asking me 2 download the latest update. I want it but u don't wanna use ADB again. So how I avoid the problem above and update and keep root?

What is you current twrp recovery (file name)?
What is your current Rom(file name)?
What is your magisk version?
Is your storage encryped or decrypted?
What installation steps did you followed?
My oneplus 5 had a similar problem during the flash of Android 9, to fix this issue make sure that you are installing the full zip of the rom, and make sure to remove Magisk with its uninstaller before flashing the rom.
Right after the flash in the recovery it's possible to reinstall the latest version of Magisk stable. Keep in mind that without hte isntallation of Magisk you will lose the custom recovery, because the phone restore automatically its original recovery, so it's better if you flash it right after the installation of the full zip.

Magisk 20 is known to have issues on pie. Also you have official twrp which has also sometimes problems.
And as mentioned already: missing to uninstall magisk can also lead to boot loops.
Recommend instructions are within the stable rom thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...xygenos-4-5-2-7-1-1-ota-t3627003/post72799040
I would try magisk uninstaller and then msgidj 19.3 in your situation as twrp won't stick without magisk.
Watch out for errors within twrp log.
Solved by running the uninstaller and reinstalling Magisk, thanks
I try everything, Try to Wipe System, Dalvnik,cache, and install latest Stable Rom, also before that I uninstall Magisk. And still BOOT loop, try also to flash form SIDELOADbut still BOOT loop.
also follow this:

I didnt try Clean Flash, because I have so much thigs for my job, and I can't delete it.

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.

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.

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....

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.

How to install Magisk v23 on GT-i9505?

Hi, I'm on LineageOS 14.1 Optimized by JDCTeam.
However I'm not able to install the latest Magisk.
Is it just not possible anymore because you need fastboot to install a patched boot.img?
I tried flashing through the regular way as a .zip file (just renaming the magisk apk into .zip) in TWRP 3.2.x.x. Also tried flashing the patched boot.img file from the rom through TWRP.
But whenever I flash it and reboot, everything force closes.
Any help on that?
Latest TWRP, latest LineageOS version (18.1), latest Magisk here. I have no issues with flashing Magisk in TWRP. In fact, I have lately had to dirty flash LineageOS then Magisk in TWRP, as a standard update in LineageOS via its updater causes a bootloop.
Fortunately this isn't my main device so....
In your case, I would update to the latest LineageOS as the version you have is really old. Updating may help.

Thanks for the reply, but I want to stay on Android 7 Nougat, so maybe it's in fact not possible anymore. But maybe somebody else has an idea.
