I think my phone is stuck in a boot loop

So I decided to root my phone and put Lineage OS on it today. It has been a while since I did this so I followed this guide https://highonandroid.com/android-smartphones/how-to-root-pixel-2-or-pixel-2-xl-easiest-method/. I did use updated versions of TWRP and Magisk but it won't boot past this screen below.

Without even knowing what OS version you are on, or whether you are on Stable, Beta or Canary Magisk, or how you installed Magisk, or whether you installed or temporarily booted up TWRP, I'll make a couple of suggestions:
If you are on Android 11, you can't install TWRP and Magisk together. You will have to temporarily boot up TWRP with fastboot to flash Magisk, or alternatively, patch the stock boot image with Magisk and fastboot flash the patched boot image.
Also, Stable Magisk is not compatible with Android 11. You should be using Beta 21.1 (or latest Canary).
I would start there.

1) Never use a guide from 3 years ago
2) Heres how i flash most ROMS (aforementioned fastboot TWRP only included. Substitute the ROM zip name for LOS): https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rom-pixel-2-xl-official-protonaosp-11-3-0.4188109/post-84079085
3) Actually heres the same info (including bonus links to TWRP) on the last page in the LOS thread youre referring to, which begs the question, why are you reading 3 year old guides offsite, and NOT the actual OP and last page or so (to see if theres issues/etc)of the ROM thread of the ROM youre installing? Thats bonkers : https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...2-2-xl-december-17-2020.4165919/post-84138395
Always a good idea to actually read the OP (and last few pages) of the ROM thread of the ROM youre installing....you wouldnt have needed to ask anyone for help....

Reading the step by step guide you linked, don't put your files in the fastboot folder. I suggest you download the platform tools from google and flash the stock google images then start over with the LOS installation.

Thanks for your replies everyone. I understand that I really didn't provide much detail. I have now fixed the problem. I have flashed LOS 18.1, NiKGapps and Magisk 21.1. Only problem I am having now is the finger print works with the lockscreen but not with apps such as PayPal or Enpass.

(BS3) Not rooted but banking app see my phone is rooted!

Hello
My phone is Black shark 3 Global version KLEN 2008060OS00MP3.
I've rooted it before using @KM7 rooting guide, i forgot to back up the recovery stock, only backed up Boot.img, yesterday i decided to unroot my phone, so i flashed first the stock boot but the phone doesn't update because it has TWRP installed.
After that i tried to flash MP4 through 1027 local update but it gives "error ota 20"
I did another try that i flash DPX beta global rom through local update, it accepted the install and switched to SLOT B, but i felt that this rom isn't stable with touch so i decided to twrp Back up @mr. Fros global MP3 backed up rom.
My problem now that i can't use banking apps because Saftey net error bypass and banks see my phone as rooted and also i can't update to mp4, mp5 . Etc
Any solution please?

Fully non rooted but banking app see it rooted

You have to flash the stock recovery with the same exact version of your current ROM (which is global MP3) , otherwise it won't work.
Try to uninstall magisk app (apk), or reset to factory, then try again. See if it's still see it as rooted or not.

About magisk, i already uninstalled but bank app still detecting. I checked Saftey net and got that result :

Problem rooting F41 with magisk and Android 12

Hi, i have rooted a few phones in the past without problems but it´s my first samsung and nothing seems to work... Read a lot a tutorials, tried a lot of things and for now, no success in any...
I'm on the latest version of Android (12) - ZTO-F415FUBS2CVF1
I did unlock the bootloader without problems... Extracted stock rom boot.img, patched it with magisk 22104. Put it inside a boot.tar, flashed it in Odin with success:

}
After the patch, i always go straight to stock recovery and wipe data...
It´s really weird, when i install magisk, after the flash, it only says this:
I also did try to follow magisk instructions and flash the whole stock rom with the AP patched but it gives me an vbmeta error, so i reverted to stock firmware and kept trying to patch only boot.img...
Also tried to revert to android 11 with Odin but it gives me an wrong version error on download mode...
I don´t know if i'm using the wrong magisk version, or something is missing in the tutorials... Also tried to find something here but nothing seems to work... Can someone help me ?

Same problem here. VBmeta is giving me a lot of trouble.
Loking foward for a solution...

Can I see the error? It may be because flashing just the ap in the first place shrunk your space.

Realme x2 Fingerprint enrollment is not working anymore after RUI downgrade

Realme X2​
Hi, I have a problem with my Realme X2 RMX1993
When realme UI 2 was released I was already rooted with magisk and had the TWRP recovery installed. In order to update from RUI 1 to RUI 2 I un-rooted the phone and reverted back to stock recovery, updated the system (everything went fine and worked fine) then flashed back the TWRP recovery, and the phone has begun to boot directly to the fastboot mode even if I wanted it to boot either normally or in the recovery mode.
After messing around I managed to flash the stock recovery from which I flashed a down-grade package to go from RUI 2 to RUI 1. After that, I got the previous version of stock recovery and flashed the latest RUI 1 version and finally, the system booted up.
Everything is working nice now apart from the fingerprint enrollment which keeps flashing and vibrating without making appear the icon on the sensor.
Here is a short I recorded:
I followed step by step the instructions in these videos:
- (in the first seconds here it is how the fingerprint enrollment page flashes after the phone reset)
-
I even tried to flash the stock ozip package and tried to install other ROMs but the fingerprint enrollment still doesn’t work.
When I unlocked the bootloader the first time and flashed TWRP and magisk the fingerprint was still working fine and now it doesn't.
I even downloaded the ofp package and tried to flash it through the Realme Flash Tool but the program gives me an error message saying “Cannot find central directory”.
Can you help me, please?
Do you have any suggestions?
Thank You

Question Cannot activate Magisk after MUI Update

Hello,
I had a working Setup with TWRP + Magisk.
Then I had the stupid idea to accept the OTA update to MIUI 14.0.6.0 (eu).
As I lost my root permissions, I decided to install Magisk again. I used the boot.img from the rom and installed it via fastboot from magisk_patched-XXXX.img.
When I look into the Magisk App (v26.1), it still states: "Installed N/A".
I also tried to flash the patched boot image via TWRP, but there is no way to gain root access anymore :/
Current Version: MIUI V14.0.6.0.TKHCNXM | stable
Can somebody give me a hint, what i'm doing wrong? I also tried to flash the _a and _b slot...
Thanks,
Stefan

You'll want to use fastboot to boot recovery (not flash)
And install the recovery via the on device gui
Also, I would use orangefox recovery, it was built from twrp, but has more features.
Use "method 2" in this guide:
https://theandroidrush.com/how-to-flash-orangefox-recovery-on-xiaomi-phone/

Hi,
I flashed the patched magisk boot via orangefox, but no success. Magisk still N/A
Step1: Patch boot

Step2: Flash via TWRP or Orangefox
no screenshot available
Step3: Result, no Magisk (N/A)
I don't understand this. Is there a greater change in MUI14?
I also installed the Magisk APK via TWRP and Orangefox, but no other result.
Thanks,
Stefan

After serveral hours of debugging I found out, that there was a post on the net, which recommended to install the debug version of Magisk. This was a first step into the right direction. But the GUI crashed and removed the Magisk App.
The strange thing was, that all other whitelisted root apps worked. But no access to change the Whitelist.
So I tried to get the GUI back. But there was no way.
When I installed the APK, it was automatically killed and removed :/
After reinstalling via the xiaomi.eu repair (update) script I decided to to try an older Magisk Version (26.0). This crashed also, but I was able to re-run the app again.
Finally it seems that Magisk implemented a change, that crashes with my MIUI version. I will observe this and try to file a bug report.
