Magisk Systemless Root Manager

In the wake of Chainfire selling SuperSU, Magisk has stepped in to fill the void. The best part about it is that this new root management solution is open source which SuperSU was lacking. The good part about this tool is that the root manager does still work with supersu, if you have already rooted with it. So if you just want to check out Magisk just go ahead and install it on your Supersu rooted device. Magisk is systemless root only which is nice for those of use that still want to use Android Pay or any other apps that check for root access on the device. Also because it doesn’t change anything on the system partition you can still take OTA updates without any problems. Just follow these directions below and you to can install it on your device as long as you have TWRP available for your device.

Installation Instructions
Before Magisk installs anything on your device, please note that magisk will create a boot image backup in /data/stock_boot_<sha1>.img.gz
If anything goes wrong (e.g. bootloop), you can either use the uninstaller (recommended) or decompress the backup and manually restore your boot image
It should ALWAYS bring your device back to life (supposing you have a custom recovery that can decrypt your /data)

If you’re already rooted with MagiskSU or Latest Official Systemless SuperSU

If you’re not rooted, or something went wrong and you need a clean start

  • (Recommended) Restore your boot image back to stock (flash uninstaller if Magisk is previously installed)
  • Download the latest Magisk zip file
  • Reboot to a custom recovery
  • If you choose to use SuperSU (only support Android 6.0+), flash SuperSU in systemless mode now
  • Flash Magisk zip
  • Reboot. Update the stub Magisk Manager to the latest from Play Store
