I upgraded and retained root.
However, when 'hiding' the Magisk app, then rebooting, I get the following message starting up the hidden Magisk app:
Code:
The hidden Magisk app cannot continue to work because root was lost. Please restore the original APK.
It is strange because when I do:
Code:
> adb shell
$ su
#
I still have root ...
Anybody any idea? I (very vaguely) recall that we had this issue a couple of months ago as well and then an update of Magisk fixed it.
Currently running Magisk 24.3 (latest).
Edit; this message appears first time opening hidden Magisk app after reboot. Force close the app and restarting makes the message go away. Root working fine for the rest.

I am running the May update, rooted with Magisk 24300. Kirasakura kernel 2.4 and the AOSP mods from Canaray-13. Updated with no-wipe from the April update.
Life is good.

I too, am running the May update. Rooted with Magisk 24300 and latest platform tools. Kirasakura Kernel v2.4. I used Android Flash Tool (No wipe) to update system and EXKM to flash the Kernel. Smooth as silk

should be the same way.. i believe its a known issues. you can also go into settings and set the automatic response to allow.
Are you running stock kernel or ef02/eg22/eh06/eh17 plus kernel?
im running the stok kernal
Should updae fine
sent from my miui-ified epic
well it updates then after a reboot it has to update again and sometimes it just wont update at all
Are you SURE your on a stock kernel?
Possible Solution To Update SU Binary
Not sure if this has been addressed (I haven't seen it), but if after updating the SU app in the market, you're probably getting that # message in the notifications that the binaries can't be updated or are outdated (something like that). Try this...
1. Go to 'Settings' > 'Applications' > 'Manage applications'
2. Find the Super User app and select it
3. Select 'Clear data'
4. Go back and update binaries
Should work like a charm...did for me at least
Hope this helps.
[Edit: To stop notifications after updating, go to the su app settings and uncheck the notifications box]
FYI
Update to the latest version from the Market. The dev added the option to disable binary notifications and updates.
I'm running SyndicateRom Frozen 1.2 and I have no problem updating SU binaries, but it won't stick after reboot. Found this quote on androidsu.com:
"The other reason that updating the binary fails is that your ROM Dev did something silly like putting the su binary in /sbin. I have not found a reason why this would be done, but I’ve seen it many times. The problem with putting su in /sbin is that even though you may be able to modify it at runtime, the changes will not stick over a reboot. This is because /sbin is part of boot.img, which gets unpacked and loaded at boot. The other problem with having the su binary there is that it’s almost always the first entry in the PATH. If you’re unfamiliar with the PATH, it’s a list of places that the system will look for a program, once it finds one it stops looking. Superuser will not try to update su if it’s found to be in /sbin because the change will not persist."
Bolding mine. So, besides updating everytime after i reboot, what can i do?
Flash another ROM or post this in the ROM thread in development. The DEV of that ROM should have a fix.

[Guide] Android Pay on rooted T-Mobile G5 - UPDATE: Workaround developed!

Android Pay use after rooting has been discussed in a few other threads, here on XDA, notably the 6P and 5X Nexi:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/general/android-pay-root-t3309072
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x/general/passing-safetynet-root-t3307659
With our newly rooted H830s (courtesy of http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmobile-lg-g5/development/root-h830-t3384526), it'd be nice to collect our information here.
I am very interested in how Android Pay may or may not work after our TOT flash. Here's a quick tutorial:
SuperSU must install via a 'systemless' root method due to security changes with Marshmallow. Thus, when SuperSU is flashed in TWRP as described in the TOT root thread, it can only install this way. It should not affect the /system partition.
Android Pay uses the "Safetynet API" to detect for tampering/root. What they classify as tampering is not entirely clear. But they do check /system among other things. It looks like apps that have altered the /system partition in some way are detected via this method.
(more boring info here http://www.howtogeek.com/241012/saf...y-and-other-apps-dont-work-on-rooted-devices/ )
It must also check the permissions of the /su/bin folder, as it should have a 751 permission profile (which is the described fix in the TOT root original post).
That is:
-Run "adb shell"
-From the shell run "su"
-On the # prompt run "chmod 751 /su/bin/"
Or, you can use root explorer to change the permissions octal to 751 for that folder.
It is set to this permission state in the rooted TOT upon first install. Obviously other root alterations you do may change it.
There are apps, such as Safetynet Helper sample (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.scottyab.safetynet.sample), which can utilize the API to see if the API is tripped.
Right after installing the TOT and getting everything to boot properly, the app shows everything is still kosher. I was able to run Android Pay, add credit cards, and have confirmed with a payment transaction.
I believe any root app that doesn't make permanent changes to /system in and of itself will probably keep Android Pay working. Obviously, for instance, if you have a terminal program app with root, and run some commands that alter your system partition/files, it may trip SafetyNet, though just having the app installed does not.
EDIT1: As of 7/25/16, a change was made to the SafetyNet API and it now detects systemless root. Android Pay no longer works on rooted devices, regardless of method. A new method will need to be developed.
EDIT2: As of 8/22/16, a workaround has been developed and tested!​Developer @topjohnwu has created Magisk (http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/mod-magisk-v1-universal-systemless-t3432382). This is a new way of integrating systemless changes into Android devices. This includes root, xposed, etc. The unique thing with Magisk is that you can instantly un-root your device, run Android Pay, and then reactivate root, all without rebooting. It is pretty seamless.
See the referenced thread for the latest information. It does take some work to install but it's fairly straightforward.
If you want to start from a clean install, @Gungrave223 has detailed the steps here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=68353051&postcount=22
If you want to keep your data, it's just slightly more work. Assuming you are starting with a rooted install, here is a quick summary on how to do this:
0. You may want to first un-register the cards you have in Android Pay. Some banks apparently only allow a set # of installs before they block additional installs, thus requiring you to call the bank directly to have them reset that number. If Android Pay resets (unsure what security changes trigger this), it will forget your cards, thus leaving those cards registered on a phantom install. Un-registering first may prevent this.
1. Get the Magisk flashable zip, the Magisk-altered phh-superuser.zip, and the Magisk manager apk from the referenced thread.
2. Go to SuperSU and select full unroot. DO NOT restore the stock boot.img. DO NOT restore the default recovery. The phone should reboot and your root will be lost.
3. You should now restore the stock boot.img. This can be done without losing your data or re-encrypting your data. There are 2 ways.
Flash autoprime's stock boot.img zip file through TWRP (recommended), OR
Flash the TWRP-ed TOT file through LGUP, using the UPGRADE (not refurbish) setting
Why not just allow SuperSU to restore the stock boot.img in step 2? Because it will reboot instantly into system and start encrypting your data, with no way for you to intervene and boot into TWRP first!
4. You likely did not have data encryption on your initial rooted installation. If you want to keep yourself un-encrypted, you MUST immediately boot into TWRP before the next power on. If you do not, it will re-encrypt your data. This is the default behavior of the stock boot partition, which you just restored in the step above. You can make this easy for yourself by TWRP flashing autoprime's stock boot.zip and then immediately doing the next steps. Note: Magisk can be installed just fine on a phone with an encrypted data partition if you don't care about data encryption.
Flash the magisk.zip from the Magisk thread. This installs Magisk and also disables the forced encryption (just like the dm-verity zip)
Re-establish root by then flashing the special modified phh-superuser.zip
Note: Chainfire's SuperSU is NOT compatible if you want to use Android Pay
5. Reboot into system. You need to then install from the Playstore phh's superuser app. You also need to install the Magisk manager apk. Grant all your usual apps root permission in the superuser app.
6. Run Magisk Manager and grant it superuser access. You'll find a simple toggle to mount/unmount root. Unmount! Check that SafetyNet will pass. If you've done everything right, it will!
7. Run Android Pay. Add your card(s) back. Mount root back and go about your business.
8. When you want to use Android Pay, unmount root and run the app. Here's a tricky part (and currently a work in progress). We do not know how often or when Android Pay checks for root. We DO know that it does this when you initiate adding a new card. So you can try an Android Pay transaction. If it fails (they often do, even if you are unmounted root at that time), pretend to add a card, cancel it, and then do the transaction again. It should work now!
pay was not working after I installed the Fluence patch, uninstalled xposed and Android Pay is working with no issues with root.

The Fluence patch has a huge # of system changes. I would totally expect xposed to break the SafetyNet.
So do you have Fluence still installed, with only xposed removed?

Yup you got it, I had been running Xposed off Fluence for a while until I left my wallet at home and didn't feel like starving. So I downloaded the Xposed uninstaller only, ran it in recovery and then let it reboot and Pay was working again.
I followed the instructions for rooting in this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmo...p-step-guides-rooting-t-mobile-lg-g5-t3388272 and then the instructions here to change the permissions but an still having problems. The only app root app I installed after rooting was an app to export google play music with track names intact.
What problems specifically are you having?
Did you install the safetynet helper app? What happens when you run it?
What root app did you install? Was it this one? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2620331 (play music exporter) aka https://www.david-schulte.de/en/play-music-exporter/
Looks like that app doesn't work in MM regardless, per the developer's page.

Yes, that is the app. I noticed MM was not supported after I had it installed
I have installed and run the safetynet app and it shows it gets tripped on the CTS profile
---------- Post added at 02:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:40 PM ----------
I just realized I also had Adguard installed. I have uninstalled it and turned off suppersu and restarted but the phone still does not pass the CTS profile check
Wondering if any of those apps made some changes to /system that were not completely reversed.
Doesn't look like that music app does any permanent changes anyway, rather just copies cache not normally accessible into another folder.
Can you check the permission profile of your /su/bin folder?
Briefly looking at the Adguard website I can't make out how its root version works exactly.
What other apps are listed under your SuperSU app list? You're not running xposed, right?
Apps listed in supersu are adb shell, root checker basic, and Titanium backup.
Titanium backup was installed after safetynet app test failed.
I'm not 100% sure what the permissions are but I followed your instructions above to change the permissions and it appeared to run correctly

Well if we can't track down the actual changes made, and you're interested in getting Android pay to work, you could try reflashing the system partition.
It looks like from reports on other threads (Nexus mostly), that something has changed with the SafetyNet check. Phones that were working just fine yesterday now fail. Most likely something server-side was patched so now Android Pay will not work with systemless root.
Details updated as I find them.
For those interested in this topic, a pretty major development has occurred at this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/mod-magisk-v1-universal-systemless-t3432382
Essentially, this is a brand new way to implement root systemless, which can be toggled via an app, without rebooting. This does allow the SafetyNet api to remain untripped. The steps involved include flashing back to stock kernel/system, flashing the application .zips, and flashing special SuperSU or SuperUser .zips. I have not done any of this yet as it is still very early.
There are some reports, unfortunately, such as this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=68045722&postcount=121
which reports that despite SafetyNet passing, Android Pay still does not work (user is on Nexus 6P).
I have read of no G5 users doing this yet, but there is a V10 user who has. Stay tuned.
I've been watching the Magisk threads for the past week and decided to take the plunge today. Many Nexus phones seem to have a lot of trouble with Android Pay, but other makes seem to do better. There were confirmations from LG G4 owners. As of this writing Magisk is on v3.
The install steps from the Magisk thread are this:
1. Reflash a stock boot.img to reset your systemless root
2. Flash Magisk.zip
3. Flash modified phh-superuser.zip (not the official one). Chainfire's SuperSU does not currently have as much support, but there is a modified supersu zip as well.
4. Boot and install phh's superuser app from the App store.
5. A 'magisk manager' app is installed via the flashed .zips. This allows you to turn off root for a set # of minutes, without rebooting.
Given the unique way the G5 is rooted, with automatic encryption, I figured it might not be so simple to install this if I wanted to keep my data without a full wipe. It quickly became much more complicated than what I wanted. Here's exactly what happened.
First, I made a full boot+system+data backup.
Then, these were my thoughts/concerns:
I have Adaway installed with the systemless addon zip and SuperSU installed. Magisk installation requests flashing back the stock boot.img. What would this do to the supersu install and Adaway?
The adaway systemless zip makes a script file which is kept in the /su/su.d/ folder. I removed this.
The SuperSU has a complete uninstall feature. As part of this uninstall process, it asks if you want to restore the boot.img (yes--this stock one is backed-up after the initial supersu.zip flash during our initial root/TOT process) and/or the recovery (no, don't do this, but it probably would not have done anything as there is no stock recovery backup). I thought this would accomplish our goal. It does warn you that you may have re-encrypting of the data partition if you go this route.
And unfortunately, after rebooting, it automatically and immediately encrypted the data partition.
Well shoot. Correct me if I'm wrong, but an encrypted data partition cannot be worked on. It booted just fine, but without root.
I started having some doubts at this time so I decided to try to restore back to my initial setup. Through TWRP, I wiped the data partition and flashed the no-verity.zip, to hopefully stop any re-encryption.
Then, after figuring out how to mount system properly (TWRP defaulted to mount system as r/o), I restored my nandroid backup in its entirety.
But upon reboot, it went immediately into bootloader mode. And it continued to do this after every battery pull and power on. I had never heard of this before! Finally, I realized I could still boot into TWRP. I flashed the 10Dcomplete.zip made by autoprime, restoring the boot and system partitions to stock. And then I flashed the magisk v3.zip and the modified phh-superuser zip.
It finally rebooted into Android, with data intact! Oddly, my unlock pattern had changed without my knowledge, but the backup PIN worked. I installed the market phh Superuser. Magisk is installed properly and it passes SafetyNet, and I can add cards to the app. I'll test out Android Pay next opportunity I have.
If I had to do it all again and wanted to keep data intact, this is what I would do.
1. Autoprime did make a 10D boot flashable zip. So this would restore the stock boot.img as intended. There are some files to clean up, such as data/su.img, but that can be dealt with later.
2. I do not know if just flashing the stock boot.img would result in re-encrypting. It probably would. So, immediately after flashing the boot.img in TWRP I would flash magisk and the phh-superuser.
Alternatively, they say you should not dirty flash for things this complex. So consider starting completely new from a 10Dcomplete flash with wiped data.
I've learned that Magisk will work fine with an encrypted data partition, so if you are set on having that, it won't be a problem.

Which version Magisk did you install?
I just did this 2 days ago but haven't had the opportunity to test AP yet.
What rooted apps are you running? AdAway?

To answer your question... I'm using v3 with his v2 of his modified phh superuser.
As for rooted apps...yes AdAways still works perfectly....TB...my one time use of System App Remover etc...
I haven't been able to test Android util tomorrow....but SafetyNet did pass when Magisk was disabled and failed when enabled.
I'll report back tomorrow after I go buy my weekly chicken at my local Fresh Mart.
I'm using the same install as you.
I tried it this AM for the first time and it failed.
On the Magisk-AP thread, someone has posited that maybe the AP app caches any root inquires during that boot. So if you test out AP and it fails while the root is active, it will remember that failure until the next reboot.
That could explain how so many people are getting weird inconsistent results. I'm testing out that theory later today.
Bah, still doesn't work, even if done immediately after a reboot =(

Magisk No root prompts

^title, I haven't done anything new and all of the sudden today my magisksu will not prompt when apps request root with the log only saying superuser denied. I googled it and found posts dating back to 2017 about issues with this (which seems to happen 100% of the time when I have issues). I've done the fixes people said worked for them (turning off adaptive battery, repackaging magisk manager, rolling back to older magisk, taking magisk manager off the optimizing battery list, installing some adb fastboot ndk module thing, reinstalling magisk, full uninstall and reinstall, reflashing /boot /system and /vendor back to factory image stock.) and no luck. Has anyone else fixed this without a factory reset/reflash? Also at the same time this issue popped up I'm also having a really annoying time getting apps to install from the play store, it'll download say for instance 2.50 MB/2.50 MB 100% and just sit there for literally minutes before the app randomly says it's installed after the screen blacks out.
Oh also I'm getting no errors at all in the magisk log even entry is an informative.
Update: I was able to get solidexplorer to request root successfully but it literally too 3 minutes of waiting for the prompt to appear. I'm also getting errors in the log "write failed with 32: broken pipe" which I also saw in that forum post from 2017.

I don't have "adwares" but I have the same issue too. Surprisingly it persists when I reverted to last known good version. Which makes everything strange.
I could not afford a clean format at the moment. But until I have the time to do it (and hopefully it goes away), any suggestions to solve this would be extremely appreciated.
I am not using Pixel 3, but I use Nokia 6. Someone told me that it's a common Nokia issue, but being brought here at a very different device forum kind of prove a point that this is a bug that has to do with Magisk, and not Nokia-specific (or device-specific as for this case (maybe)) issue.

The page didnt help with my issue unfortunately
-------------------------------
I managed to solve my issue by actually formatting everything (including data). Painful 2 hrs for me lel. Now on 6.1 Manager and 7.3 Magisk and everything works as it should.
Since I formatted data, the issue may have something to do with magisk's leftover files.
Still, the problem with 18.x and 7.0 manager will always happen if i update. Fun fact: if you play around the root settings in Magisk Mgr, you may have a luck and the root prompt will appear. Unfortunately, the root prompt will only appear for the current boot. If you reboot, the problem is there again. Use this window of freedom to grant root to your apps.

Just a thought and maybe you do it but after each update instead of just directly rerooting, run the magisk uninstaller first.
Flash update
Reboot
Boot back to bootloader
Install TWRP, your phones method
Flash Magisk uninstaller.zip
Flash custom kernel if applicable
Flash magisk.zip
Reboot

Seems like for now, most UI and user facing changes in general are hidden behind flags, this one is meant for the devs, so it's to be expected. The beta, on the other end, will be aimed at users, and then we will see what changes
I upgraded last night. Had to reboot twice after restart. Then everything was stable. First time it rebooted after install, nothing seemed to want to work and kept FCing. Second reboot, everything is fine now. Sometimes, Nova needs to be indicated when I press the home button that it's default, otherwise, everything is working fine.
Is it me or does the Android version still say 11 but the build is "S"?
I downloaded the 12 DP1... and it just isn't ready yet (understandably so) for the daily driver use I need.f
Rooting it requires disable verity and verification. You'll need magisk 23 or canary to patch boot.img as well. Not disabling verity/verification, it will only boot back into fastboot and list the reason as something like, "unable to load boot image".
Once rooted, I moved on to installing edxposed --- using riru, riru edxposed, and edxposed manager. Everything installs without problems. Final reboot, and reboots as normal. But then about 90 seconds later, you'll start getting FC after FC after FC. All apps too, and background apps, and systemui, etc.
Removing the riru components and edxposed manager, doesn't correct this problem.
Did fresh format and reinstall of the DP1... rooted again... and then tried Viper4Android. I use a very simple version. You just flash it, and its done (no manual driver install either). Rather than the 3 reboot, AML, driver install, etc.
V4A installs with good logs. Reboots without a hitch. But I noticed the v4a icon in the status bar is missing. I open it up manually, and start getting freezes and fc's. Within 5 minutes, I get kernel panic reboots -- and non-bootloop freezes on the working G screen.
Reboot manually with long press power, get it loaded back up and immediately remove V4A. Reboot and now I'm back to stock.
Get FC's every hour or two. Random reboots too. Battery life is struggling.
I decided to wait until a better version drops, perhaps the beta or at least a DP2.5 or 3.0. As of right now, having Android S is mostly just a status thing -- to show people how cool we are to have access to it as such an early stage. But unless you are dedicated to helping improve the ROM through daily use and reporting... I highly recommend that you stick with Android R.
Just flashed the 1st public android 12 beta bramble-ota-spb1.210331.013-3c294b13.zip with adb sideload. Listed as android S atm, surprised 5G was enabled as this wasn`t the case with android 11 in the Netherlands. All apps working fine so far and still finding out the new stuff.

Question Magisk canary crashing

I have been using canary successfully all week. Today I woke up to a message saying I needed to update magisk canary. When I clicked the message to open the app and see the issue it does the normal splash screen then disappears. Unlike the main version of magisk that changes it's icon and doesn't even try to open this tries. I have uninstalled and reinstalled and there is no difference. I still get su prompts when using new apps that require root, but the app itself will not open fully. Thoughts?
I was going to delete this post but I discovered downgrading from the newest magisk canary to magisk canary version 831a398b fixed everything, thought that info might help someone else.
The latest build fixes the crashing. 25208 works well.
