Yes it does, but it requires a custom kernel (if you want as close to stock as possible take the SuperStock G935F)

It works without custom kernel! You have to root with cf auto root. Then unroot with supersu but dont restore original boot.img! It seems that magisk at least needs a custom boot.img....

You only need a kernel. Not a rom...

I assume you have a custom kernel wirh permissive selinux installed?
Sent from my SuperMan powered SM-G930F

Yes, apparently so, although I didn't do it on purpose. I have no idea about flashing kernels and such.
For reference, the ROM I used is
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2557353

Currently running Magisk v6 with AlexisRom v7 (with Arter97 kernel) on SGS6. No issues.

Note 4 N910U, stock MM 6.0.1 PH1 installed Phh's superuser, Magisk V6, and topjohnwu's Xposed 86.5, all working flawlessly here.
Custom kernel is not installed as AP is not currently available in the region I reside, and not interested in PKM, so stock kernel fit my requirement well.

Can anyone help me? I have NOTE 3 - stock. What type of kernel?

I'm trying to use desesperadamete magisk in a note 4 N910C custom rom / android 5.1 kernel but get no root access. Agleum could give me a light?

Stock Kernel

I am looking to flash back to a stock kernel because the rooted kernel is giving me reboot issues during phone calls. Does anyone know where I can find the stock Kernel file for the N920W8 (Canadian version)?

Arter97.com kernel will not reboot.
You have to reflash stock firmware without root for stock kernel.

Does arter kernel have root? I didn't see it under list of features. Also is there any lag issues with arter kernel as I saw a couple concerning posts about that?
Thanks for the reply!

Yup lag issues persist but that's the only downside. Only happens every twice a day.
Arter has root.
Reflash stock firmware 100% done

Can I root + install a custom kernel if I am on software AOJ5? (N920C)

I believe that you can't go back to older versions of software with this version, so do I need to wait for kernels and roms to be updated before I can root?
Thanks
Yes you can install Custom rom then root it then you can install Xposed also

But it says you can't downgrade to old software after installing AOJ5

From what i can see, all roms are on an older base
Yes you Can not downgrade and no need to downgrade and that was't your Question ,
You asked Can i root it and i answered Yes because i did

[KERNEL] [STOCK] BeastMode SimplyRoot by freeza [T710] [PB1] [Permissive] [ROOT]

Here is the BeastMode SimplyRoot Kernel by freeza based on the PB1 source.
Many people have been requesting a update stock kernel with the root restriction disabled so here it is. "SimplyRoot"
The only thing in this kernel that is different from Stock is SE Android Permissive.
Important Notes, please read.
PB1 is the latest firmware build for the T710.
The only change in PB1 was and updated Kernel. The Platform (ROM) in PB1 is the same as OJ1.
It is worth mentioning that OL6 also had the same platform as OJ1 and only was an updated Kernel.
So what this shows is that from OJ1 Samsung clearly has been tweaking the Kernel.
Because of this I suggest updating to PB1 to recieve the best battery life and performance.
NOTE: You can flash back and forth between OJ1, OL6, & PB1 as they have the same bootloader so no risk trying any of these firmware.
Thanks!
Big ups to Freeza who took the time out and was the one to make all of this happen.
If you really dig this and are the donating or praising type please direct all credits, thank you(s), and donations to freeza
Features?
-Root Restriction Disabled
-SE Android Permissive

Nobody should need a flashable zip to install a kernel. There is no need to provide multiple formats for flashing.
One great feature of TWRP is it provides image flashing. Extract it from the tar archive and flash away.
Thanks for this. Does anyone have a stock PB1 kernel in case I want to go back? Or, since I did a full TWRP backup before flashing, will that restore my stock kernel (while wiping out everything else)?

Kernel support for CM12.1 for Xperia SP with UBL ?

Hi,
I wanted to install CM12.1 in the 1st place but when I tried to install Tangerine Kernel, I got stuck up and the screen went blank with nothing. So I went on with Williams Kernel + CM11 stable version just to be sure that I don't brick my phone permanently.
I have been browsing through the forum, trying to know which Kernel to be used for CM12.1 ? Helium has versions like L and M which confuses me !
It would be really helpful if you guys clarify my queries,
Can anyone please let me know what Kernel and its version to be used with CM12.1 which is stable for daily use ?
Also can I go with huashan's latest nightly build for CM12.1 dated 2016-04-02?
Also I have another doubt in the installation sequence. After installing a new Kernel.zip from SD card through recovery, should I go ahead and install the ROM.zip at the same time or should I reboot my phone after installing the new Kernel and enter recovery again to install the ROM ?
Please help me understand.
I have unlocked bootloader + Williams Kernel + CM11 stable version currently on my phone.
Thanks in advance.
If you are using a new nightly of cm12.1 don't use tangerine kernel because is outdated. Use helium or the stock one. For helium: M means marshmallow, that's android 6.0.1. You have to use helium L. The l stands for lollipop, Android 5.1.1.
And, if you flash the kernel and then flash the rom zip you will overwrite the kernel, so at the end you won't install anything.
The installation is in the thread but afaik you have to flash first the rom zip and then the kernel.

Thanks @darjwx for the reply . You have mentioned that we need to flash rom.zip followed by the kernel.zip that is needed for the ROM. But how does the old kernel (Williams Kernel in my case) support the new ROM (cm12.1 in my case) ?
As per my understanding, we need a proper Kernel to run the ROM. Is it not like that ? Also ROM and Kernel shares different memory right ?
The rom zip comes with a kernel, so flashing the rom zip will install the new kernel.
Yep you can say that. But it's better to say that they are using different partitions.

Magisk v8's compationability about suemax's kernal

My Rom's kernal is "Suemax-kernel-Hard-Core-v1.3" for Samsung Galaxy Note 4.
When I updated Magisk from v7 to v8 in recovery mode and tried to reboot my phone,
it will stop at the second screen over 5 minutes and cannot boot into user interface.
And then I downgraded from v8 to v7, it will be back to normal.
Any ideas?

Which version of the note 4? Snapdragon or exynos?
My Note 4 is SM-N910U (exynos)
It may be an incompatibility with the exynos kernel or that kernel in particular. Have you tried others?

Yes, it works when I flash Suemax kernal basic v2.0.

Then it could be something in the hardcore kernel that doesn't like magisk. I had an issue with slowness from emotion kernel and magisk on my 910t. It kinda sucks, but unless the dev is interested in fixing it, there may not be another choice.
