Yes,its working...
REMOVE ALL OTHER ROOT...working or not befor installing magisk....may end with....something you dont want...
Maybe it would be best to start with a freshly factory resetted phone.... (anyway,to erase all errors in TWRP,youll format/data so... )
you need bootloader unlock... followed instructions HERE don't forget to OEM UNLOCK in /settings/Developer section on phone..(enable it while pressing repeatedly on Phone version (in ''about phone also in settings)
You need MINIMAL ADB on pc...HERE
You need TWRP recovery installed...HERE
but before doing all that...BE SHURE to have the original UPDATE.APP (firmware from huawei) somewhere on your pc
you will need the BOOT.img from your original firmware... (extract it from the update.app (update.zip for huawei firmware)
HERE
extract the boot.img somewhere on your pc... like on your desktop...
then,youll need 2 magisk things...
the LATEST magisk ZIP file...
and the LATEST MAGISK APK...
FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS (from Magisk post...i did it and its working :silly: )
Installation Instructions
If you already have Magisk installed, you can directly upgrade through Magisk Manager
For installing Magisk the first time
Make sure to remove any other root, best to restore your boot image back to stock
Via custom recovery:
Download the latest Magisk zip file
Reboot to a custom recovery and flash the flashable zip
Via Magisk Manager (Only support v14.0+):
This method does not need root, and also does not require a custom recovery.
However, you MUST have a stock boot image dump beforehand, and also be able to flash the patched boot image, either through fastboot/download mode or ODIN
Install the latest Magisk Manager
If you're planning to flash the patched boot image through ODIN, go to Settings > Update Settings > Patched Boot Output Format, and select .img.tar. For normal users leave it as the default .img
Press Install > Install > Patch Boot Image File, and select your stock boot image file
Magisk Manager will now patch your boot image, and store it in [Internal Storage]/MagiskManager/patched_boot.img[.tar]
Flash the patched boot image to your device and reboot. Voilà!
Check whether Magisk Manager is installed and the version matches the latest one in the OP
If for some reason Magisk Manager isn't installed/upgraded automatically, please install it manually
the ADB method is the best...
after reboot,in magisk app,youre supposed to be GREEN checked....
after that,if all green,you can FIX that DATA problem in TWRP...saying cant mount or blablabla...
DO a backup cuz yess,youll loose everything... Hisuite for your apps
in twrp, FORMAT DATA... ...wipe data factory reset...re install your things then,youll be able to do recoverys ect. in twrp
dont forget to RE INSTALL magisk APK after formatting and factory reset
IT WILL take some time TO BOOT... so let it do its thing...
Now about magisk modules...all of them ive tried ended in (blablabla not a magisk module)...
no big deal....just dload the zip and look for the app or file in it... and apply to where it belongs... like new Oreo Emojis...ive dloaded the zip,found the file, then paste the file in /system/fonts...then reboot
now...if i made a mistake somewhere in my explanations well... sorry....
WARNING
IF youre device is bricked or what so ever... its not MY fault....you do that on your own......Ive done it,followed MAGISK instructions and its working....
Not shure about it...DONT DO IT....
DON'T DO TWRP backups with fingerprints/nip/code unlock methods activated on your phone... i had to factory reset phone cuz code was not working.
YES there's a way to recover anyway... THANKS HENKATE
Regarding fingerprint, boot in recovery and go to advanced > file manager and delete data/system/locksettings.db
Then advanced > terminal and type:
cd data/system
rm -rf *.key
Then reboot and you won't have secured lockscreen
MAGISK modules are HERE
Magisk MANAGER is available on PLAYSTORE
BEFORE making a twrp backup... (after data format ect.)...
you may want to FIX the huawei theme manager not working problem for some of us... the FIX is HERE
Thanks to Henkate
Youll need a good file system manager...i'm using ROOT EXPLORER and theres that new FX file explorer

Does it work in the non plus Nova as well? Any experiences?
Worked on Can-L11. Tested. No need format data, in twrp tree, i add img, that work with encrypted data.
I can't get this to work on my MLA-03, i have TWRP installed and unlocked b/l. I tried to flash RR and Lineage but getting "can't mount" errors up the ying yang. Anyone with MLA-03 got any tips? Is there a certain recovery that is recommended?

did you format data as f2fs? If yes, magisk doesn't go well along with it. If no, then you would get better support at magisk thread

I'm trying to install magisk on MiA2Lite with january update but I fail.
I've tried
- Zip installation (Magisk Manager -> download .zip) but when I reboot on TWRP i don't find zip, all folders seems empty
- upgrade boot image: the upgrade semmes works well but when I restart MiA2Lite and I open Magisk Manager I alway see "Magisk is not installed" ed if I tap on INSTALL Magisk Manager propose: "download zip or upgrade boot img"..
the option "direct install (recommended)" dosn't apear to me

If you want to install magisk from TWRP:
-Put the magisk.zip on your fastboot folder,
-Boot to TWRP and connect the phone to your PC, then use this code :
Code:
adb push ./magisk.zip /sdcard
-Now, you will be able to see magisk.zip on the Install section of your TWRP. Make sure to rename the magisk installation zip to "magisk.zip"
If you want to install without TWRP:
-Get patched_boot.img for 10.0.3.0 here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi...hed-boot-img-v10-30-0-january-update-t3891331
-Put the img in your fastboot folder, shutdown your phone.
-Go into fastboot mode on your phone (hold Vol- and Power)
-Connect phone to PC and write this on ADB:
Code:
fastboot boot patched_boot.img
-Let it download the img to the phone then unplug and wait for it to boot.
-Install Magisk Manager and tap Install->Direct Install

I assure you that if I would have preferred to find the information myself rather than wait for some kind user to answer me. Unfortunately it is not so simple, there are many double posts with information missing (you imagine a new user who wants to try to install the GCam, there are several posts on the subject with redundant or sometimes opposite information, there are two posts on how to install Magisk without losing the OTA, they are almost identical but in one there is written that with Pie no longer works, in the other no ..). Look for an info here with the search function is anything but simple so thank you for answering me so exhaustively!

Bro.. i'd like to ask
So the diffrence/concept is , if
- with twrp we dont need patched boot.img
- without twrp (we need patched boot img)
Are we can flash stock rom via twrp? So dont need fastboot anymore? At least fastboot for emergency case only
And last why right now is so much step in order doing mod, last time i doing mod with my samsung galaxy grand 2, the key is only how to install custom recovery (cwm or twrp) , from that recovery if we want to install custom rom or root , just download zip , flash from custom recovery, enjoy.... Simple
Why in this phone not like that, especially install GSI rom ( which still im not clearly about GSI and difference with custom rom)

You can't flash stock ROM with TWRP, unless you use a backup of your own stock ROM, then you can recover your backup to install stock. Also you're talking about 6 yr old phone. Many things have changed since then on Android lol. GSI means Generic System Image which means that these roms should be able too boot on every device with treble support. Instead of creating a rom from scratch for every device, they just make a GSI and that can be installed on every GSI supported (project treble enabled) phone. You can still install TWRP and flash what you want. But beware you might have issues and Mi A2 Lite doesn't have any custom ROMs yet, because it is project treble enabled. You can use GSIs for now but most of them lag so I stick with stock. You can try modding the stock rom with magisk etc. :good:

Hi All
Note: This procedure is for Windows PC only.
I can see there is a similar thread to help on rooting your device.
I created this thread it make it more easier and focussed just on rooting your device rather with additional information.
This menthod is to root your device without TWRP.
There is a detailed guide by @Freak07 which you can find here.
Prerequisite:
1. Your device bootloader is unlocked
2. You have enabled your Developer Options and enabled USB debugging (Settings > System > About phone > Software information, tap build number 7 times to enable Developer options)
3. Flash Tools, download from here and extract to your PC
4. Latest Magisk Manager which you can download from the relevant thread (search or click here)

2. Go to the folder where you copied Flash Tools and double click to run cmd-here.exe
3. In the command prompt run the command adb devices, this will run the Deamon and show your device under List of devices attached. If doesn't show your device, check your device is connected and USB debugging is enabled.
4. Now run the command adb reboot bootloader to boot your device in to Fastboot mode
5. Now flash the patched boot image with the command fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img
Restart your device with the fastboot command fastboot reboot and enjoy your ROOTED device
It works great, thanks!!
But then I installed miracast magisk module and now everytime I flash magisk patched boot, my phone is stuck on Asus logo so I have to flask stock boot to use my phone.
I think I should flash system image but when I unzip firmware from Asus site ( https://www.asus.com/Phone/ZenFone-6-ZS630KL/HelpDesk_Download/ ) on my mac,
It doesn't show any system image (or even boot image), only "compatibility" , "payload" and some other stuff.
Can you tell me what I am doing wrong?

Hi ASUS firmware for Zenfone do not have system img and instead it is the payload.bin which holds all system files. You can extract system image using python based tools.
You can remove the module if you flash TWPR and using file manger in TWRP to remove magix folder. This will remove magisk completely. Or, reset system via stock recovery. Completely switch off your device. Now, press and hold volume up button and press power button. It will help you to boot in to stock recovery. Or you can follow the guide here
If you still want to flash stock firmware, this link may help.

Yes you do. But you will not loose the files and folder in internal storage like photos etc..
You have to install all user applications again.
I would suggest you to follow the thread to flash TWRP and just remove magisk folder in TWRP file manager.

You can boot in to TWRP without permanently flashing it.
Take few cautions before you attempt to boot in to TWRP using this option,
1. Remove fingerprint in security settings (settings > Security & lock screen > Fingerprint)
2. Remove screen lock PIN in settings > security & lock screen > screen lock > select NONE here and also make sure Fingerprint is not enabled in this screen
How to boot in to TWRP:
Download TWRP from here
Use the command in Fastboot > fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-15-ASUS_I01WD.img
Now you can use file manager in TWRP and remove magisk folder. You have to mount system folder to do so.

Are you able to boot in TWRP recovery as I mentioned. Please confirm.
Have you mounted system in twrp. It won't go anywhere. You should find it. I have done this several times.

Yes. I did try as well. It seems like TWRP is loading in READ ONLY mode. I doubt whether you can flash the uninstall mod as well. But worth trying as you can save all your installed apps.

yes. I can see that there is an installer (magisk module) which has to be flashed in magisk in order for TWRP to write on data partition.
In your case, you cannot boot your device with rooted image as you have a module which is causing bootloop. Catch 22 sistuation.
In this situation I think you have only one option left which is resetting your device loosing all installed apps. Sorry mate. Could not help you at this time.

Hello Smohanv,
Say I want to update to the latest Firmware that got released yesterday, and I am currently rooted via the method you introduced on the first page with firmware 16.1220.1906.174_0, how do I go about it?
If I do the Manual update, will I loose root? Or should I wait for you to release a patched one, and then do the manual update?
Thanks.

I found the steps to install magisk when using a custom recovery a bit confusing (I extracted boot.img from the stock image and then bootlooped my device after I flashed the patched boot.img...), so I thought I'd write this after having recently done it myself to help anyone else running into trouble. I did this on a Poco F3 global version with 12.5.4 firmware.
Prerequisites:
- LineageOS recovery + LOS already installed (so you can use Magisk app to patch recovery.img)
- working adb, fastboot, and so on
- download Magisk-v23.0.apk from https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/tag/v23.0
- download lineage-18.1-*-recovery-alioth.img from https://download.lineageos.org/alioth
Basing steps on https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html
1. Copy recovery-alioth.img to phone; I used 'adb push lineage-18.1-20211127-recovery-alioth.img /sdcard/Download/alioth.img' to do this
2. Open Magisk app and select Install for Magisk near the top
3. Use 'Select and Patch a File' method, finding and selecting the alioth.img file
4. Click LET'S GO and let it finish.
5. Retrieve the image from the phone; I used 'adb pull /sdcard/Download/magisk_patched-[random-strings].img ~/patchedboot.img'
6. Reboot phone to bootloader by running 'adb reboot bootloader'
7. Flash patched image via 'fastboot flash boot ~/patchedboot.img'
8. Reboot into system via 'fastboot reboot'
9. Proceed to installing modules.
I was able to install Magisk hide and props config and set device fingerprint to OnePlus 6T on Android 11, hiding root from almost all apps, and then pass safetynet. Any questions or input is appreciated, I hope this helps someone!
I just flashed Lineage, rebooted, set up the phone, rebooted into recovery and then flashed Magisk.apk after renaming it to Magisk.zip. After a reboot I opened the Magisk app (which was automatically installed when flashing Magisk) for the first time and it prompted me to do some additional operations. It survived an OTA update so it should keep working in the future.
The firts mentioned method does not seem to work with the new Magisk 24.1
Does anyone have a solution to this?
(Never mind ..you need to uninstall the earlier version,then it will work)

Has anyone had issues with this? Some days ago this worked fine, but now Magisk does not let me access the "Modules" tab and Zygisk is not in the options in Settings anymore. I have a POCO F3 on Android 12, set the Fingerprint to a Redmi Note 10 to pass the CTS test (which worked and still works)
Any help would be much appreciated!

You had update yesterday I think. Your magisk is no longer there - boot image is overwritten after ota update.
Open magisk and check, it'll likely say not installed

Thanks for your reply. I'm quite new at this so I'm not sure what's going on: the latest Magisk release is still v25.2 and after following again these instructions but for v25.2, I still have the same issue. What should I do to fix this?
EDIT: you're right that it does say that it's not installed, but I followed the procedure from some days ago and it doesn't seem to fix it.
Many thanks again!

Simplest option is to reboot phone to recovery , select adb update , connect to pc and do "adb sideload magisk.apk"
It will patch image for you, don't rename it to .zip or anything

I think this is the equivalent of flashing the apk as zip in custom recovery, which is deprecated.
I compared the official one with the first post and I think the following is missing in the first post:
(Optional) If your device has a separate vbmeta partition, you can patch the vbmeta partition with command:
fastboot flash vbmeta --disable-verity --disable-verification vbmeta.img
From:
Installation
The Magic Mask for Android
topjohnwu.github.io
Poco has a vbmeta but i never executed this step. The instructions say that it is optional but they don't specify it.
I used the first post since LOS18.1 and no problems. Since LOS19.1 updates give me bootloops so after some repair tries (and failed twrp restore) I did a fresh install and did not take the updates anymore. No idea if it has something to do with magisk or patching vbmeta. Soon gonna try to update LOS with magisk disabled.

Does this still apply to LOS20 and Magisk 25.2? After doing this, do I still need to extract the patched image?
Hi,
I run the Amazing Evo-X 7.4, that comes with it`s own built in Recovery, it`s OK but i prefer Orangefox or TWRP, as these have more features than Evo-X STOCK.
I use a program called "Temporary Recovery" and is installed using FASTBOOT and a PC, it doesn`t overwrite the original Recovery, in case you need stock for OTA Updates.
Once in Temporary Recovery i can install all my goodies, including Magisk v25.2 as you would with normal recovery,
once your finished installing your programs you have the option to make either OrangeFox or TWRP (temporary recovery) permanent.
Example below:
I install Evo-X and it overwrites my permanent recovery ,
i Re-boot my F3 into Fastboot mode and connect it to my PC,
I run "RUN_TWRP-Orange Fox FIXED.bat", i then have a choice of either TWRP or OrangeFox, once installed my F3 reboots into Temporary recovery, i then make Recovery permanent, Re-install "Magisk-v25.2.apk" from with-in recovery and carry on where i left off.
If your interested and would like to try it out, you can find
"Temporary Recovery" on the Evo-X thread page 1, post 20,
I hope you find this useful

Not sure this is going to fit my particular needs. I'm looking to use LineageOS' recovery and stock, along with Magisk.
I had previously tried patching LineageOS' recovery with Magisk, pulling the patched .img to my desktop, then tried to fastboot flash boot <Magisk-patched>, but when I went to reboot to the system, it looped back to recovery, so I ended up going back a few steps to redo LOS recovery and LOS properly flashed.
At this point, I have a working LineageOS and recovery. I booted to the system, installed Magisk-v25.2, opened it, and did a direct install -which, if I remember correctly- is the temporary root I need in order to get root in whatever the next step is.
I just don't know what to do next.

lol... flashing patched image is all you need to do
Either via adb sideloading magisk.apk or manually flashing image both will suffice.
Just look at magisk app, if it doesn't say not installed then it is working
This is an unofficial build of TWRP, based on the Android 12.1 branch, that supports encryption used by Android 12 and 13 ROMs. This build is tested on OP9 pro, but it was confirmed to work on regular OP9 too.
As always I'm not responsible for any bricked device or data loss resulting from the use of this TWRP builds. You use this at your own risk.
For ROMs using FBEv1 encryption aka A11 encryption, please use the official builds by @Nebrassy from:
[RECOVERY] [11] [OFFICIAL] TeamWin Recovery Project
Introduction: Team Win Recovery Project or TWRP for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. We started from the ground up by taking AOSP recovery and loading it with the standard recovery options, then added...
forum.xda-developers.com
Download:
twrp-3.7.0-12.1 - Google Drive
drive.google.com
Installation:
Permanent installation is not possible with TMO stock ROM installed.
Installation overwrites all boot partition changes done previously (e.g. by Magisk or custom kernel). So you have to reflash all zips that change the boot partition after TWRP is installed.
For permanent installation, you have three options depending on your current system.
1. Option for rooted devices:
Download the twrp-installer zip
Flash it with Magisk manager or some other kernel flash utility
Reflash your custom kernel and Magisk.apk if previously installed (see example of how to install with Magisk manager below). Or alternatively flash zips in TWRP.
Don't reboot
Rename downloaded Magisk.apk to Magisk.zip
Open Magisk app
Select Modules tab
Click "Install from storage"
Select Magisk.zip
2. Option for users with other custom recoveries but without root:
Download the twrp-installer zip
Reboot to recovery
Flash it with "adb sideload twrp-installer*.zip"
Reboot to recovery
Reflash your custom kernel and Magisk.apk if previously installed
3. Option is universal:
Download boot.img
Reboot to bootloader
Run "fastboot boot boot.img" with the TWRP boot image on your PC
Go to Advanced > Flash Current TWRP
Reflash your custom kernel and Magisk.apk if previously installed
Try without installation:
Download boot.img
Reboot to bootloader
Run "fastboot boot boot.img" with the TWRP boot image on your PC
Uninstall:
Just flash the boot partition with your current ROMs boot image with the following steps.
Replace "YOUR ROM BOOTIMAGE" with the filename of the extracted boot image of your current ROM.
Reboot to bootloader
Run "fastboot flash boot_a YOUR ROM BOOTIMAGE"
Run "fastboot flash boot_b YOUR ROM BOOTIMAGE"
Alternatively you can flash your currently installed OTA zip, which overwrites boot on the unused slot, but not on the currently used one.
TWRP Updates:
Download and flash the twrp-installer zip
After that reflash your custom kernel and Magisk if previously installed
ROM Updates:
Please follow the official update instructions for your ROM!
If they give an option to update via recovery you have to substitute adb sideload commands with zip installations. Also use the "Automatically reflash TWRP after flashing a ROM" option, if you are going to install a ROM zip to preserve TWRP installation.
In case your ROM does not provide a recovery update instruction you can try to update via recovery but you are on the safe side if you follow the official instructions. They always have a reason for their particular update instructions!
Instructions that work for me (on LOS based ROMs):
Flash ROM zip with "Automatically reflash TWRP after flashing a ROM" checked
Flash your previously installed zips (custom kernel, Gapps, Magisk, etc)
Reboot to system
If Gapps packages keep crashing:
Reboot to TWRP
Flash Gapps again
Reboot to system
For OOS updates should work out of the box, but if you have issues you can follow these steps (I haven't tested them):

About backups/restore:
Restore data only WITHOUT pin/pattern set.
If you restore a backup made from another ROM, then the currently installed, you may have to format data. So please manually copy all contents from /sdcard to a PC or flash drive.
Backups can be made with or without pin/pattern set. It is always good practice to copy your backups to your PC or an USB drive. Also after you restored your data partition you have to reboot to system and do a second reboot to get a working system.
To make first boot faster and eliminate the need to reboot again, additionally use the step mandatory for OOS users.
If you want to copy your backup to PC, but it doesn't show up, flash change_backup_selinux_context.zip, which is available in download folder.
For OOS users:
When data is restored, you have to delete "/data/system/users/0/package-restrictions.xml" before rebooting to system.
In case you restore a backup with pin/pattern set or have some other issues I have a guide that works for me:

How to use MTP, adb and fastbootD:
Windows:
Install official Google USB drivers and select the right USB drivers. For MTP and adb, the WinUSB driver is sufficient on Windows 11. For fastbootD, Google drivers (Android Bootloader interface) has to be chosen.
You may have to select WinMTP for MTP and Google USB drivers for adb, if you run Windows 10.
To use adb on Windows, MTP has to be disabled with "Mount->Disable MTP" in TWRP.
Steps for choosing a specific driver (no the exact wording):
Connect phone in specific mode
Open device manager
Right click on phone either under "Android device" or "USB device", depending on mode
Select "update driver"
Select 2. option "browse my computer"
Select "pick from available drivers"
Pick driver according to above description
Linux:
Intall the fastboot and adb packages for your distribution
Set udev rules. There might be a package for your distro or use this gh repo: https://github.com/M0Rf30/android-udev-rules
Add user to the group used in udev rules. Most common are "plugdev" and "adbusers"

Updating A13 ROMs, in my case crdroid 13, works fine. I have not tested clean installation of a different ROM after factory reset with user data preservation.

Download:
twrp-3.7.0-12.1 - Google Drive
drive.google.com
Installation:
Get your rom's vendor_boot image. For most ROMs this can usually be downloaded. For OOS based ROMs you can get it for example by extracting it from the official payload.bin with payload-dumper-go. A third universal option, if you have root, is to use the command "dd if=/dev/block/by-name/vendor_boot_SLOT of=/sdcard/vendor_boot.img" on your device. This writes the vendor_boot image to your sdcard folder, but you have to substitute SLOT with either a or b, depending on your currently active slot.
Reboot to bootloader.
Run "fastboot flash vendor_boot vendor_boot.img" with the TWRP vendor_boot image.
Run "fastboot boot boot.img" with the TWRP boot image.
Go to Advanced > Flash Current TWRP.
After that is done, if you were using a custom kernel, reflash it now.
If you were using magisk, reflash it now.
Reboot to bootloader.
Run "fastboot flash vendor_boot vendor_boot.img" with the ROM vendor_boot image from step one.
In the case you just want to test TWRP without installation, please skip steps 5-7.
Permanent installation works fine for me with crdroid 13 and magisk installed. I have not tested any other ROMs or custom kernels. After permanent installation you can at any time reboot to recovery without reflashing vendor_boot. During a ROM update use the "Automatically reflash TWRP after flashing a ROM" option in the install zip menu to preserve TWRP.

Your problem seems to be a general TWRP problem, that oftentimes happens in multiuser system. And I couldn't access your recovery.log. In this file you find conflicting files, that are the reason for the error.
