Yes you will need Odin. If you are going to use magisk then either flash twrp or use the patch method. Either way require Odin.
Personally I use twrp. You can copy all files needed ( on to SD card ) and flash within twrp.

yes that was my plan stay magisks with twrp ,
altough i dont remember i did this when i installed twrp on mines
HOW TO INSTALL:
0. Make sure you enabled developer settings by pressing the build number several times and have the OEM unlock enabled
1. Boot into download mode by pressing: bixby, volume down and power
2. Download the latest Odin version, open it
3. Download the recovery file from below and put it into the AP tab
4. Untick "auto reboot" in odin and flash the file
5. After flashing, boot into twrp. Make sure to NOT allow system to be modified till you disable dm-verity! (otherwise your phone will be stuck at bootloop). Alternatively flash my stock patched kernel to the boot partition (install, install img, check the kernel, check boot partition, done). Find the patch kernel here
6. To disable encryption you need to format data

Basically yes. I would first do a backup ( I know but the amount of people not doing it and then wanting to know how to retrieve the lost data ).
In download mode check kg/rmm state is NOT in prenormal state.
Step 5 - allowing system to be modified - that's up to you. I normally allow modifications.
Then format data reboot back into twrp.
Flash/install - no verity zip, rmm bypass zip, magisk .
Hey i have a problem, i downloaded latest rom but my bt wont save bt pairings, what can i do about it

Keeping it short. This is a simple way to root your device. You will need a computer and a data cable for this.
Objectives :
Have root using Magisk
Be able to install OTA from the settings without bootloops
Avoid boot loop
Very important :
This will work with ANY Xiaomi phone, and should work with ANY ANDROID phone as well. The difference between phones would be in where you can get your boot image from.
Your phone has to have an unlocked bootloader
Your phone has to have stock recovery. TWRP WILL cause bootloop for root and/or OTA updates from system.
I like to have root with magisk and don't want to install TWRP because I want to be able to install OTA from system without boot loops. This guide will help you achieve this with ease.
Steps:
Download the ROM full zip file. This could be the ROM ALREADY installed on your phone or you are updating your phone to it. Here is a video of one way to get your ROM file.
https://youtu.be/KsxHial1v1U
Open the file and extract "boot.img" on your phone or Computer.
Move the boot.img file to your phone
Download and install the latest Magisk official manager app from here: https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/manager-v7.4.0/MagiskManager-v7.4.0.apk
Open Magisk manager and click install then "select and patch a file" like in this video
https://youtu.be/USHcCMYlexM
Copy the Patched image from the download folder to your computer adb/fastboot folder
Reboot your phone into fastboot (press and hold power and vol down) and connect it to the computer
Flash that patches image file using fastboot
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
fastboot reboot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Open Magisk manager and complete the installation if needed. The app will prompt you for action.
Enjoy
Update May 2020
Hello again,
Sorry for being away for so long. Here are some of the things I have noticed people are confused with and need to make them clear:
This method works for ANY Android phone. As long as you have the Correct boot.img and can unlock the bootloader
MAKE SURE 100% you have the correct boot.img file for your CURRENT ROM
MAKE 100% SURE, the boot.img file you get from the FULL ROM zip file, not an OTA update zip file
Make sure you check the date and time of the "magisk_patched.img" file to make sure that is the one you made
Make sure you use the LATEST magisk manager
Make sure you open magisk after flashing the magisk_patched.img as boot image. Magisk manager will tell you if there is another step needed, just click yes and it will be done in seconds
Make sure to enable "Hide Magisk" to allow you to have your BANK apps working as well as security checks
If any app you use gives you an error "YOU ARE Rooted bla bla bla" Use magisk manager to hide the root for this specific app (in the settings)
That's all I can remember, good luck

Phone is reset when the bootloader is unlocked, not before/during the waiting time.
Can do with locked bootloader?

No, bootloader has to be unlocked.
@Kiwironic followed your guide and worked very well, although I had to wipe data through the stock recovery to get the phone to boot, I believe that's just how newer Xiaomi phones work. I do have one question though, now that I'm rooted with stock recovery, would I be able to install OTA updates? I'm assuming I would of course lose root and have to redo the process from scratch if that's the case.

I had root on MIUI10 and updated the ROM to MIUI11 then did my root again the way mentioned and did NOT have to wipe. You can get OTA anyway, it will try the update first, it will fail, then it download and install a full ROM zip automatically. You have to wait for it to do that twice, that's all. The first boot after the update takes some time.
@Kiwironic First, thank you so your simple guide!
Can this cause bootloop on my device? If yes, can I simply flash the original boot.img to boot without any data loss?
Also another question: my device is rootless and bootloader unlocked, so my Google Pay doesn't work. When installing Magisk it goes back to work immediately or I have to do something to work?

If you flash the full rom, chances of bootloop is minimal. And should have stock experience except for being unlocked.
I got bootloop, using indian global V11.0.2.0.
After flashing patched boot, it gets bootloop recovery, only way is to wipe all data and reboot
After booting up and opeing magisk it shows a recommendation to install some ZIP
Accepting the recommendation results in bootloop,
Rejecting the recommendation and trying to Install > Direct Install results in bootloop as well

I got the exact same issue, every time it asked me to install additional zip files it went into recovery immediately after booting up.
Anyone know why this happened?

Do you have stock recovery or TWRP? Which version of Magisk are you using?
I have patched my boot stock image, installed full ROM, then flashed the patched boot image. Magisk did not show any recommendation installation.
There are a few guides online on how to deal with Magisk Bootloop without the need to wipe data.

TWRP 3.3.1-8, magisk 20.1
Patching boot image with magisk wasn't a problem. The Superuser itself works normally, module doesn't. The magisk manager suggested to download additional files for the magisk to be working properly.
I'm on MIUI 11.0.1 Global
Was TWRP the cause in the fist place?

On first installation MM asks to download what it needs e.g. to verify SafetyNet. Allow and there is no problem about. TWRP is generally not needed to install Magisk. Things are documented in Magisk guides

Yes, as the title suggests "without TWRP". The reason is, you cannot install OTA and magisk easily without using the stock recovery. Any attempt to update OTA or use any recovery script on the phone will result in a boot loop.
The solution to get out of the boot loop is simple. Actually a couple of solutions.
One, flash your stock recovery, or
Two, flash a full ROM that includes the stock recovery.
No need to wipe data
That's the only reason I made this post and the other about OTA on root. I don't like to use TWRP because I want OTA install without boot loop. At the same time I want root. Hence the solutions I provided

I've tried flashing magisk via recovery and didn't work, the same bootloop. Here's the thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-9t/how-to/guide-miui-11-v11-0-1-0-pfjmixm-rooted-t3997299
I thought this might be a working alternative.
Gotta try installing magisk with stock recovery then, and if it still didn't work, well, more research for me..

You have to understand the requirements :
- stock recovery
- install magisk manager app
- patch the boot image for your stock ROM (same version on your phone)
- flash that Patched boot image.
- reboot
- done, that's magisk installed
Hello everyone, my phone is samsung note 10 plus, I have twrp installed and rooted with magisk, I'm on Android 9, I somehow lost root, have no idea how, I'm very careful not to allow updates or google to install something there might affect my root.
when I go to magisk I'm getting the image that I've attached, when I click on install magisk, download the zip file and try to install it I get an an error as show in the 2nd image, saying unsupported/unknown image forma. I've also attached the log file. Is there any way for me to fix this without flashing the rom and start from scratch? Can I repair it somehow, maybe with TWRP?
Thank you all in advance
you have boot.img of the device?
i thought you can only install magisk in 2 way by flashing boot.img unto magisk or flashing magisk.zip unto TWRP as recovery partition
#edit how did you install magisk in the beginning? thats how you will install it again
there a chance you will get your device brick if you install magisk wrong way (A/B partition) but since you already install it previously just reinstall it back
Hmmm, where should I have the boot. Img you mean as if I backed it up on my pc? Or I can download it and use it?
Now I'm confused :/
Before i explain i don't take responsibility for any damages caused on your device if you decided to follow my tutorial .
So basically there's 2 way to install Magisk
• Image Patching - Basically this is what most people do they find stock boot.img and recovery.img for there devices
1. Copy the Stock boot.img or recovery.img to your device
2. Download and install the latest Magisk Manager
If you are patching a recovery image, manually check “Recovery Mode” in Advanced Settings!
Press Install → Install → Select and Patch a File, and select your stock boot or recovery image file
Magisk Manager will patch the image, and store it in [Internal Storage]/Download/magisk_patched.img
Now pull the magisk_patched.img with ADB:
adb pull /sdcard/Download/magisk_patched.img
Flash the patched boot.img or recovery.img to your device and reboot.
For most devices, here is the fastboot command:
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img or
fastboot flash recovery magisk_patched.img if you are patching a recovery image
Now you are rooted
•Custom Recovery - This is when you do not have Stock boot.img or recovery.img for your device
( High Chance Of Phone Getting Bricks )
1. Download and install the latest Magisk Manager
2. Download Magisk.zip (https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/) choose the Latest Release
3.Now reboot to recovery (TWRP, CWM ... ETC)
if you use stock recovery it should say "apply update via sdcard"
then just choose Magisk.zip
4. Now if you have TWRP just click Install and choose Magisk.zip
5. wait for the process
6. Now you are Rooted (hopefully xD :fingers-crossed

Thank you very much.
OK, I tried method 2 and didn't work. I downloaded my stock firmware and I have the image file, I can try the first one to place the image in the root of the phone, patch the file with magisk and reflesh it with Odin?
Will I lose all my stuff on the phone by doing this? Thank you
i remember using odin back in 2012 for my samsung galaxy y i didn't know people still using that thing
i search your device on google and it said samsung provide the kernel for it ( https://www.xda-developers.com/samsung-galaxy-note-10-kernel-source-code/amp/ ) thats a good start for rooting your device try looking for it
also visit https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-10 it is dedicated section for your device model which means all threads and post are for your device model

He's just saying to re-root it... If you lost root it's more than likely gone and you'll have to do whatever you did to gain root in the beginning. I constantly backup all my apps, data, pictures and everything to my little USB OTG thumb drive and to my laptop. I do this daily because many times a factory reset is what has to happen depending on what's going on. You can grab a Samsung micro sdcard 128 GB for $18-$19 or so online or thumb drives like I have a SanDisk 128gb.. it was $14. Just some thoughts for moving ahead so you don't have to go through this again. Lots of good suggestions here. If I were you I'd hit the "thanks" button on whenever took time to stop and search for answers to your issue. That's what we do here on xda. I could care less about racking up "thanks" count just throwing that out there so that you know..
Good luck on getting her all fixed. The note 10 is a real gem!

I can re root it, that's not the problem, i can do it with the patched magisk boot image through Odin, im asking if that's gonna wipe off everything on my phone. Because i can't backup certain things without titanium backup, and titanium requires root access. Thank you for your help and everyone's else's im well aware and grateful for the attempts, suggestions etc.
no it's not gonna wipe anything thats why magisk is called "systemless" . It will essentially modify the system without actually modifying it.
if you flash magisk_patched.zip nothing noticeable will happen except you will have root access
all your installed application will be there
also i notice this some people actually copy magisk_patched.zip thats really bad idea you need to let Magisk generate it.
For example you have 2 phones same model and same build version .
You generate magisk_patched.zip on the phone A
then decided to copy magisk_patched.zip into phone B ofcourse it will still works
but since you just copy it and didnt let magisk generate it . It would not make backup for boot or recovery partition
if you uninstall Magisk on your phone B .There is really high super ultra mega chance of your phone getting bricks. Also it would not revert any changes done on the period while Magisk is installed

Thanks for the help, please correct me if im wrong.
Im supposed to copy the AP . md5 file to the root directory of my phone, patch it with magisk, get the patched file, copy it on the pc, connect phone to the pc, get it into download mode, flash the patched file with Odin and that should be it?
Or maybe i can do it with twrp?

1. Install the latest Magisk Manager
2. In Magisk Manager: Install → Install → Select and Patch a File and select the AP tar file.
Magisk Manager will patch the whole firmware file and store the output to [Internal Storage]/Download/magisk_patched.tar
3. Copy the patched file to your PC with adb pull /sdcard/Download/magisk_patched.tar. Do not use MTP as it is reported to corrupt files.
4. Reboot to download mode, and flash magisk_patched.tar as AP in Odin, together with the BL, CP and HOME_CSC files. Never flash only an AP file, as Odin can shrink your /data file-system if you do.
Important: Uncheck "Auto Reboot" in Options!
5. Magisk is now successfully flashed to your device! But there are still several steps before you can properly use the device.
6. We now want to boot into the stock recovery to factory reset our device.
Full data wipe is mandatory! Do not skip this step.
Press Power + Volume Down to exit download mode. As soon as the screen turns off, immediately press the combo key to boot to recovery (e.g. on the S10 it is Power + Bixby + Volume Up). Since we want to boot into stock recovery, continue pressing the volume up button until you see the stock recovery screen.
7. Use volume buttons to navigate through the stock recovery menu, and the power button to select an option. Choose Wipe data/factory reset to wipe the data of the device.
8. This time, we can finally boot to the system with Magisk. Select Reboot system now, and immediately press the combo key to recovery. After seeing the bootloader warning screen, release all buttons so it can boot to the system.
9. The device will automatically reboot for the first time it boots. This is completely normal and done by design.
10. After the device is booted up, do the usual initial setup. The following steps will need an internet connection.
11. Magisk Manager will ask to do additional setups. Let it do its job and the app will automatically reboot your device.
12. Voila! Enjoy Magisk

7. Use volume buttons to navigate through the stock recovery menu, and the power button to select an option. Choose Wipe data/factory reset to wipe the data of the device.
8. This time, we can finally boot to the system with Magisk. Select Reboot system now, and immediately press the combo key to recovery. After seeing the bootloader warning screen, release all buttons so it can boot to the system.
9. The device will automatically reboot for the first time it boots. This is completely normal and done by design.
10. After the device is booted up, do the usual initial setup. The following steps will need an internet connection.
11. Magisk Manager will ask to do additional setups. Let it do its job and the app will automatically reboot your device.
12. Voila! Enjoy Magisk

Thanks so much for your help, but i just want to get root back on my phone as i had it rooted already, i dont want to wipe off everything and lose my stuff. There are things that i can only backup with titanium backup, which i can't use now without root privileges :/ can i repair root somehow?
how did you lose your root anyway?
your Android OS updated?
you can try restoring apps with titanium backup but i don't think it will restore Magisk being installed again and gaining root access

I didn't do the update, but something did mess up the root aa you can see on the photos that I've attached at the beginning of the topic. I just want to reroot my phone again but not to loose all my current stuff on it.
if you have boot.img or recovery.img for your device you might not lose your stuff installing back magisk but i think you only have the whole firmware ".tar.md5" flashing thats is like factory reset for your phone
#edit i read about ".tar.md5" they say if you just extract it .It contains all stock .img file for your device such as boot.img, recovery.img , system.img ...etc
since i have too much free time can you upload the firmware ".tar.md5" of your device i will upload .boot.img and recovery.img for you

[noob]
I'm rooting for the first time so please bare with me and I want to be sure before I start.
1. Unlock OEM
2. Open odin and enter download mode
3. Add twrp in AP and click start
4. Hold button combination to enter twrp
(now the confusing part, what all do i need to install from sd card)
5. Install no-verify-opt...zip
6. Install RMM bypass (few videos/guides suggest to install few don't i dont understand)
7. Finally magisk
Now when and how do I install Alexis rom?
Please clarify regarding RMM bypass.
Also there are multiple version and sources for RMM and no verify zip files is there any official source? What do these two do?
Device : G960F

Very basically:
RMM Bypass zip - Prevents bootloader from re-locking itself when rebooting.
Download latest version ( v3 ) from here. Won't hurt your phone whether needed or not.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sa...w-to/guide-root-install-twrp-samsung-t3747535
No-verity ziip - stops re-encryption when rebooting.
https://build.nethunter.com/android-tools/no-verity-opt-encrypt/
On Android Q I used this Multi disable zip instead of no-verity zip.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/universal-dm-verity-forceencrypt-t3817389
May have to re-name the zip to add ' quota ' to file name.
For installing twrp use this guide
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ga...cross-device-development/twrp-exynos-t3763464
On the order of flashing, for me personally, I would get twrp working first ( with the above files ). ie: install twrp, install files, reboot to system, reboot into twrp then do a backup ( especially EFS partition ).
Flashing custom rom you will have to check in thread guide but generally requires wiping ( not format ) some partitions then install the rom
Then flash magisk.
All done using twrp.
I normally do all this in stages and backup before going on to next stage.
Is there a system app or security feature on the sm-j737p 9.0 pie U7 that needs to be disabled in order to gain root access? I cant get it to flash any su on the device nor get magisk to work right on it. I cant find a guide that will work for it. Is it unrootable?

If not already done yet, unlock phone's bootloader and also disable Android's AVB & Android's dm-verity .

nope, isnt working . cant disable any dm-verity or AVB, theres no fastboot mode on this phone, the usual things that go into rootin a samsung isnt possible with this one for some reason
Success!!
I got it rooted
. Stock firmware AP > Magisk > magisk.tar > Odin > flash > Root.
Hi can you possibly tell me where I'm going wrong, I've been at this for hours and can't seem to get it working. So based on the guide I've been following, I got the correct firmware file for my phone and then flashed it with magisk. I turn off the phone and put it in odin mode where I flash the patched tar file. Then it says to immediately put the phone in recovery mode, which I do, and wipe the data then reboot and it should be root with Magisk installed. However, this does not happen, instead it just runs through the new phone setup where it downloads a system update and there's no way to bypass it. I also tried flashing twrp, and I made sure it was the latest version and for my model yet when I try to flash twrp and boot straight into recovery (or not, it doesn't matter what I do at this point) the phone just bootloops until I put it back in odin and flash the firmware again. I just don't understand, I've rooted many phones and tablets and I've had a lot of trouble but there always seemed to be more resources and people having similar issues that would help.
Hello Everyone,
hopefully this is the right section for my question. If not please let me know.
I got a t865 with android 12 and want to root it. So i use the helping guide from Magisk (https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html#samsung-system-as-root).
What i did:
1) Unlocking the Bootloader (The OEM is grayed out) and i get a message every boot their is a open bootloader
2) Download with frijya the last stock image
3) Transfer it to the tablet
4) Download magisk and patching the file with recovery boot (no ramdisk)
5) Adb pull back to the laptop
6) Reboot to download mode and patch the magisk ap and the bl, cp and csc
And after the flashing, i cannot reboot to into the recovery. Everytime i get the info about the open bootloader and than the message: The tablet is not running samsung official software. ... (You can see the error on the image)
I can get back to the download mode and flashing the orignal stock image and be back were i started, but without rooting.
Can someone tell me how i can fix it?
Thx a lot in advanced

hi, don't worry about rebooting into recovery to wipe, if you did a clean install that's not the problem. i think the problem is the file patched with magisk. try to patch a new one leaving the flag on ramdisk and try the flash again
Thank you for your answer. You mean the check of the “Recovery Mode Option“ when I patch the file with magisk?

Thank you very much. It worked perfectly with leaving the flag on ramdisk. Just a little change, but it saved my day. Thanks.
