Hi !
Here I am about to first answer the question for an old version of Magisk, and then ask for some help for the last version of Magisk.
What's the problem with Magisk and the P8 lite 2017 ?To install Magisk, we must install the apk (the app), and patch a kernel partition.
The problem is : in Emui 8 (the OS of the P8 lite), the kernel is fused with an other partition (a boot partition I think). Therefore, impossible to just patch the kernel and reinstall it, it doesn't work .
Thanks @AltairFR for the explanation !
How to fix this ?Well I know it's possible to defuse, patch, refuse and then it should work, but I don't know the tools and that's what I am looking for actually
Already existing solution (Magisk 22)@DarkJoker360 have shared everything needed to install Magisk 22. It works, just follow the ReadMe. Thanks to him !

Try this way out (EMUI 8):
1. You need stock ramdisk.img , you can extract it from service ROM (aka full stock ROM) using Huawei update extractor
2. Copy stock ramdisk.img to the SD card
3. Download and install magísk manager 24.1 apk, link
4. Using magisk manager patch the ramdisk.img
5. Install magisk-patched-ramdisk.img ( in TWRP or in fastboot mode)
It worked for me on P20 lite running EMUI 8.
@-Alf- I tried your advice, seems like it worked on emui 8 for me too (at least once every 2 attempts or so).
But when I try this on DotOS, the version provided by Altaïr, it doesn't work any more :/
The phone Isn't bricked but it has not effect
There is flashable magisk-24.1.zip, try it.

Hello,
I'm the proud owner of a KIW-L21 (Europe Honor 5x), but with all the bloatware and the lack of privacy in the default rom, I'm a little sad.
To fix this, as you could have guessed I'll need to root the phone (install AFwall + Xposed + XPrivacy, right?).
I plan to unlock the smartphone as soon as emui . huawei . com starts to work for me.
Anyway, I'd be happy to test custom recoveries, kernels/roms if you want help from a L21 user.
My first stop would be custom recovery, so who should I work with in order to bring TWRP for the KIW-L21 (and not the L24) to a working state? or do you think the L24 recovery would be working for the L21?
Thank you in advance.
I've installed twrp l24 and there was a fictional mouse in the middle of a screen, hard to explain. I was wondering if you could flash twrp 3.0 directly without installing l24 version and see what happens? https://twrp.me/devices/huaweihonor5x.html
For that you would need to flash supersu zip through the bootloader (if you prefer app version of twrp) or install .img file from bootloader
A lot of people said that xposed doesn't work; this was for l24 version, don't know if it will work on l21.
We have some threads that may interest you -

Thanks for the link.
For information, the emui huawei com unlock procedure described here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-5x/development/root-kiw-l24-usa-kiwi-t3305190 steps 1 through 7) also works for the KIW-L21.
Next step is the recovery.
For information, flashing twrp following the procedure described here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-5x/development/root-kiw-l24-usa-kiwi-t3305190 steps 8 through 11) also works for the KIW-L21.
Please expect a lots of glitches with the interface, but with a lot of patience, you can flash your zips (for example SuperSU described in the steps 11 to 13).
Next step is the privacy tools' installation: Installation of AFWall+ + AdAway + Xposed framework
History:
After I change the kernel I lost the root! Then I tried to update the Magisk to version 18 and the Magisk Manager to a most recent version that I don't remember its version.... But my phone continued without root.
Trying to solve this again I install Magisk 16.3 and Magisk Manager 5.6.4 downloading and installing the files available in this link: https://www.stechguide.com/download-magisk-v16-3/
Without success too!

So, darlings.
I'm asking for a tutorial to uninstall all the Magisk things of my phone (if you experts think it is necessary) and I'm asking for a tutorial to root again my phone with Magisk.
And I'm also asking to know the latest STABLE version of Magisk and of Magisk Manager COMPATIBLE with my phone and that will work well!
I have a Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N9005) with [ROM][C9 Pro Port][N900X] AspireTeam C9 Pro v5.0 [18.5.18][Aroma/Smooth/Modded] installed.
Thank you so much!!!

First, Magisk is one of the most documented tools on xda, has its own official forum and especialy its official releases on GitHub (where all versions are available). It's useless to get it elsewhere.
Second, Magisk will only do his magic on an already flashed kernel. If you flash kernel after Magisk, you won't get root.
Third, Magisk flashable zip contains the corresponding Manager and will inject it systematically.
Finaly, you need TWRP for a successful flash of Magisk. With other custom recoveries, errors like "can't find the boot image" can happens.
Now, for a complete removal of Magisk from the system, you only have to flash the latest official uninstaller.
After reboot, go to recovery, flash your prefered kernel then flash Magisk. The latest stable version is v18 and will work well on your rom.

Hi people!
I tried to unlock bootloader of my p9 lite
VNS-L31, android 7.0, stock emui 5.0.x
Got the code, unlocked, installed many twrps
to see wich was the best one to flash magisk 19.
All good, but everytime i did a magisk flash,
the phone didnt reboot properly.
(Got bootloop, sometimes got the reset phone screen entering a password {??} along with red errors in all twrps) im sure i did all correctly, this isnt the first time
I do a root on a smartphone... the point is:
I think that magisk is what causes these errors and
Forces me to hard reset the device to use it again (dload or huawey extractor)
i need magisk 19+ first because i need a systemless root, then i need many magisk modules
On my phone. Also tryed with custom rom based on
Emui 5.0.x through meticulus twrp 5.2, elite 3.1.1 twrp.
No way to install magisk without getting errors.
--- 》So if you guys could give me some tips to fix this issues, i would appreciate it so much. It could be my bad or maybe i need to do something else in order to get magisk working. 2 days trying, need help of the best modders here. Thanks in advance to all, and best regards from italy! :good:
Dear everyone:
I am a new member of the xda community, First of all please forgive me for my English level and this stupid question ,I have a question about root Redmi 7A. We are known Redmi 7A used asr 32-bit , maybe that's why it's difficult to ROOT it? On the Xiaomi website , I can not find a Developement Developer ROM of the Redmi 7A. if have then I can flash it to get Root privilage. I have tried genneral way to root it , but all failed.
firstly , my Redmi 7A is unlock (bootloader) and I have flashed TWRP (WRP-3.3.1-1003-REDMI7A-CN-wzsx150.img) and Global ROM 10.2.5 (download from https://mirom.ezbox.idv.tw/en/phone/pine/roms-global-stable/#info_18104 )， then installed Magisk manager. then I use patched boot.img method, or I flash magisk use install zip from TWRP method , the phone can boot normally, but magisk manager claims that magisk is not installed. yes, my problem is the same as this post https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-7a/help/unable-to-root-redmi-7a-miui-11-0-6-t4011525
However, I did not understand how he ended up being successful, Do I need to download a specific patched magisk_patch.img? Therefore, I think I need a more detailed tutorial.
All help would be greatly appreciated !
In addition, I still have a question, which domain does magisk access when updating and pathing? Because in China, this domain may not be accessible. I need to enable the VPN service to update or patch normally.
Try mokee ROM, with add on su

Add-on-su on mokee open source ROM works fine, can enable root from developer options only, magisk and supersu don't work.
I have been trying to make them work but it seems impossible, I have looked in system/xbin and found no su files, maybe the problem is in the meta-INF because it doesn't properly know where to install it.
Hello,
I was wondering if the T380 is rootable?
I tried to follow [TWRP 3.2.1-1] [ROOT] Tab A SM-T380/T385 - 10/02/2018 but it didn't work ( as I assume) since the guide is quite old. I also tried patching the boot.img using the magisk tutorial but I end up with the Installed: N\A Ramdisk: Yes A\B & Sars: no.
I can't also downgrade since I have the latest 2021 patch and the binary is 4 while the version below that is on 3. ROM STOCK
PS: I can install TWRP without any problems, the only issue is rooting with magisk
Any help or suggestion really appreciated.
This is exactly the same problem that I've been having with my T380. I've flashed the stock rom and retried many different methods of rooting with Magisk but they all have failed. If you got it workiing, please tell me what made it work for you. Thanks!
These are the steps that I took using post by Winston Churchill as a guide:
1. Enable OEM Unlock
2. Use Odin to flash TWRP with twrp_3.2.3-1_sm-t380_oo_4119.tar on AP Slot
3. TWRP Wipe/Reformat Data then reboot to recovery
4. Install boot.img patched by Magisk using TWRP (I extracted boot.img from stock firmware and used Magisk to make patched boot.img)
5. Install Magisk.zip using TWRP (this didn't do anything, I had to manually install the apk later on)
6. Install Tab_A_2017_Pie_forced+encryption_disabler.zip using TWRP
7. Wipe Cache and Dalvik
8. Reboot System
I tried alternative approach for installing Magisk using this guide. It basically is extracting boot.img off your current device firmware and using Magisk to patch that boot.img. Then flash the patched boot.img using TWRP (it didn't work for me though)
These are the places I went to get my files:

I haven't done this on the T380, but it works on other Samsung tablets. Instead of the rigamarole of patching the boot image, just flash Magisk-v21.4.zip with TWRP. It won't give you the latest version, but it installs Magisk Manager, and you can use that to update to the latest version of Magisk and Magisk Manager.

Try flashing Magisk23.apk with TWRP as if it were a zip. That worked with latest 11 ROM with T500.
Tried it, didn't work either, I think them latest security patch for this tablet block root or something, I'm literally stuck.
