Magisk (MagiskSU) - Busybox won't install, says "Systemless root is not configured".
I've installed/flashed the latest stable Magisk version: v13.2. (Since version v13.1 I believe the bundled busybox included with Magisk was removed because it caused a lot of issues)
I've tried to install BusyBox to "/su/xbin" but it always throws up the error "Systemless root is not configured".

Tried adding it as a module to Magisk however it reports it's not a magisk module "this zip is not a magisk module".
Flashed it with TWRP and it installed in su/xbin. Thanks :good:

If you want to use it as a Magisk module, maybe you should install it from the Magisk Manager instead of flashing from TWRP.
Besides, I didn't catch your meaning. You mean the busybox app notice? Now that busybox is installed, you don't have to mind that notice.
Why are you guys trying to install to /su? Unless you're still on Magisk v12, you shouldn't be using SuperSU...

What method would that be? No, I'm not gonna go hunting for some random Youtuber...
If the aim is to get a functioning busybox up and running, the easiest way is to just install @osm0sis busybox module from the downloads section in the Manager. No other apps needed...
He installed busybox in system/xbin
He made a folder called "Viper4Android" in the "system/priv-app" folder and copied a Viper4Android APK in there
He set the permissions of said APK to -rw-r--r-- (I set to -rwxrwxrwx for good measure)
He went to "system/vendor/etc" ("system/etc" if it's not there) folder, made a copy of the "audio_effects.conf" file
He renamed the "audio_effects.conf" file in the etc folder to "audio_effects.conf.bak"
He pasted the original "audio_effects.conf" file back in the "etc" folder, so now he has a "audio_effects.conf" and a "audio_effects.conf.bak" file in the "etc" folder
He changed the permissions of the "audio_effects.conf" file to "-rw-r--r--"
He rebooted, opened V4A, installed drivers, then rebooted
Hope this helped.

That busybox module works perfectly for me.
And I'm using Magisk partly because it makes system modifications like V4A systemless. Therefore I would not follow those instructions...
I do have V4A working though, with this Magisk module and by utilising this workaround until the module has been updated. Nice and systemless...
The above mentioned workaround hasn't worked for everyone, but several other ways of getting it to work have been discussed in that thread.

You'll need to provide some details for that... After flashing the module in TWRP, can you save the recovery log (Advanced - Copy log) and attach it to a post here.
And I forgot to say, but for the V4A module I linked, I don't even need busybox installed. YMMV...

This is a Magisk module to enable the assistant on existing Nexus devices
Github Repo:
https://github.com/kudiaborm/Nexus-Assistant
How soon? I'd like to try the assistant and I was thinking of doing the build.prop modification, but now that I saw this thread maybe I'll rather wait for this module.
Edit: Sweet module. Love it, worked as expected.
Make sure you're on a Google app version higher than 6.5.35.21. http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/google-search/google-search-6-6-14-release/
Magisk Manager doesn't like cache mods so you have to flash in recovery. Make sure you wipe data for Google App after flashing.
This only sets the two build. prop variables. I didn't include any Google app apks or wipe data for Google app. You'll have to do that yourself.

Just so you're aware replacing the entire build.prop causes issues. It's best to replace the two individual lines. You can use my module as a guide.

Are you able to Download+Install modules through the Magisk Manager Downloads section? I'm on NBD90x with Magisk v7, Nexus 6P, Magisk phh, Magisk Manager 2, and I get an error for every module I try to install through the manager. If I could get at the zips and just flash them that would be awesome, but I can't.

Yes I can download, install and reboot from the manager. But this mod needs to be flashed in recovery FYI.
Try and flash them from recovery. There's a folder where magisk manager downloads the zip files. It's in the root of the SD and I think its named magiskmanager

Yes, there is. Unfortunately immediately after the zips are downloaded, when the install fails, it removes the zip and I can't get at it. I've gone completely back to full stock NBD90X and installed everything, gone into Magisk Manager and am still unable to install any of the modules from there. It's so frustrating, haha.

You could try my mod. Instead of replacing the whole buld.prop file it just adds the two properties
Code:
ro.product.model=Pixel
ro.opa.eligible_device=true
to it.
Edit:
Forgot to mention it's still a cache mod so let me know how it works out.
And remember you need to flash it via recovery. Magisk Manager won't install it correctly.

Intro
Expose your su to standard location /system/xbin/su systemless-ly.
Though it helps grant root permission to some apps, this trick breaks safetynet.
Just made a simple module try to solve the /sbin/su not detectable problem. This module will look for existing su binary, and create a link as /magisk/su_xbin_bind/system/xbin/su pointing to the real su. The link will also be mounted as /system/xbin/su systemless-ly later.
Installation
Flash it in Magisk manager or through recovery, then reboot. You will find a link /system/xbin/su. All the work is done systemless-ly.
Uninstallation
Open Magisk Manager, go to Modules, disable or uninstall the module called "Su xbin_bind". Then it will disappear after reboot.
su-xbin-bind on github
Changelog
v1.2 20170417
Add Magisk v12 support.
v1.1 20170323
- make it compatible with Magisk v11.5/11.6
Update 20170228
- Since a little syntax error in the mounting script from Magisk v11.0-v11.5, mounting links systemless-ly won't success. Hence we choose to copy but not to link the su binary for v11.0-v11.5. Don't worry, both methods are systemless.
Reserved.
Hi, will this not make safetynet fail?

I used your module to fix TiBackup freeze when restorins apps.
TiBackup troubleshooting (http://www.titaniumtrack.com/kb/tit...l#tb-hangs-while-freezing-apps-restoring-apps) reports that this issue is connected with wrong su permissions in /system/bin and /system/xbin. Since these are not available due to systemless root, I though that your module would represent an elegant fix... and it did!
Thanks!

If you mean you are using xposed, obviously safetynet will be broken. MagiskHide couldn't hide xposed.
This module tries to fix the su detectable problem. If your titanium backup could get root permission after installing the module, it means the module worked.
My TB is working fine, but I have another app that can't detect it, will give it a test run, thanks for your work!
HI! Just a quick feedback: this module works with Helium Backup that now correctly asks for root permission! :good:
Thank you!
Thanks for the module!! It was the key for me getting Termux su working ?
Hello, I flashed this without error and titanium backup as well as ES file explorer both report I do not have root. Magisk v12 states i do have root.
nevermind...i realized Magisk SU isn't installed as it didn't auto install. I had installed phh's superuser r266-2.
proceeded to rewipe and reflash everything.

yes. the android toybox/ toolbox used by blu has been altered and the mount function is not working properly. Same issue some have had with adaway, and other mods. The solution should be to install busybox and fully symlink it to /sbin.
I have not done it but based on your reported error it should be the correct solution.

the symlinking is done from in the bustbox installer.
so, you still have problem with busybox installed?
not so sure what to try next. Ah, check in the list of installed links for busybox and see if "mount" is shown as installed.
you can try to install the "toybox" from V12. It is untested method and you would need to know how to undo if needed.
link to the twrp install of that file is in my earlier post.

Got it to work had to tell BusyBox installer to overwrite and symlink it apparently it's unchecked by default as its "not recommended to replace the systems version" :silly: go figure maybe under normal circumstances with a correctly functioning mount its bad but it fixed it stericson BusyBox installer did others weren't tested but I assume same result. But thanks for your help greatly appreciated it.
Just a note to anyone who comes across this thread if you use Titanium Backup at all don't use "BusyBox X" it seems to break T.B.'s ability to detect root this might be just magisk... or both SuperSU and magisk. but i had this happen with other devices some on SuperSU Some magisk but un-install "BusyBox X" (install any other busybox) and problem goes away not sure what direct cause is in "BusyBox X" might be because X is 1.26.1 and others are 1.27.1 ( ATM ) seems its always one version behind.

yes but because of the way we have to initially unlock/root the r1 it doesn't pass safety net with magisk unless android is not passing safety net again with magisk. but like i mentioned some things can break root "busy box X" with certain apps. also xposed framework systemless and normal seem to work well.

Yesterday i used magisk on android 7.1.2 , now updated to 8.1.0 and i get same error.

go phone settings --> app permission, be sure you let installation permission to magisk from there, otherwise magisk always fails

i got same problem 2 days ago, so here is the fix i found.
go phone settings --> app permission, be sure you let installation permission to magisk from there, otherwise magisk always fails

Did you mean storage permission? It already granted on my device.

Had same issue .... uninstall magisk from recovery, then install magisk 14 and install any module (Viper4Android for e.g.) it should install properly and then update to 15.1 . all modules will work from then on.

If so, the issue is from magisk 15.1 i think

not really. i mean my device is qmobile Noir E2 (Chinese Phone Rebrand) and its operating system is from the Panasonic Eluga A3, which i modified to not encrypt internal storage and such. so it might be a problem with generic devices and not with magisk.

Ah... Then I understand. That has nothing to do with the Managers ability to install modules only with it's built-in update feature. And there's no need to manually enable it. If an app needs that permission, you'll get a message that it needs to be activated.

Hm... It's not supposed to show a message when installing modules though, only when updating the Manager or otherwise installing an apk manually.
I find it interesting that installing modules wouldn't work unless you enable that option... Could you record a logcat when install a module with the setting off and then when it's on?

sorry it was like nightmare so i just dont want to risk it and break anything again. but i remember that everytime i tried to install any mod, magisk fails and says "Unable to extract zip", it is kinda phone doesnt let it to use storage and make installation, but after gave the permission everything solved.
Edit. Ss attached from my setting
Hello.
Unable to flash magisk modules.
! /data/adb/magisk_merge.img mount failed.
Even via twrp recovery is no possible to flash magisk modules, says something like error 1.
The device is a doogee mix 2.
I was forced to install the normal xposed framework just to use it.
Root works; only modules have problems.
Can some expert find a solution, please?
Thank you in advance to everyone gives good news!

Known issue on some MTK devices. Loop mounting doesn't work.
There are lots of reports like this for Doogee... There's been some investigating into it in the beta thread, but as of yet there's no solution, I believe.
Hello!
Yes, of course!
Logs of magisk installer and TWRP recovery here:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/11vzWdbQfTtlmdc7VchaKxSGU4RkaOcog/view?usp=drivesdk
Ignore the crittografy error; I have tried to disable the crittografy and all is the same. Same problem.
In more, yesterday I had another annoying problem with magisk: before the options of the magisk app disappeared (there is the pic in the folder I attached. Then magisk is totally disappeared: magisk is not installed anymore in your device.
Tried to re-install magisk: nothing happens.
I have re-flashed the ROM and re- installed magisk: at moment is working.
Root files and SuperSU are not working.
I will open a new forum discussion for this problem.
Thank you in advance.
Greetings

Looks like recovery can't decrypt /data, so that's likely an issue there. But it'd be easier to tell if you had provided the recovery log rather than a screenshot (Advanced - Copy log after trying to flash).
And, it would also be very useful if you had provided a Magisk log rather than only installation logs.
But, it's probably a moot point anyway. Like I said earlier, this is a known issue with loop mounting on Doogee devices (and other devices using Mediatek). No solution as of yet...

Same here, provide good logs
Ok, thanks.
I will try to send you good logs.
About encryption, I have tried to disable encryption and to install all without encryption: nothing changes.
Before I must understand why magisk disappears from system, then I will collect logs about modules installation. Magisk is the only way to root this damned phone, SuperSU does not works.
Thank you in advance

There was no need to start a new thread about that... You've already got this one going.
The screenshot of the Manager you provided simply showed a Manager without internet access. Completely normal.
About losing root completely, make sure you don't have any aggressive battery optimisation on the Manager. More here:
https://www.didgeridoohan.com/magisk/Magisk#hn_Randomly_losing_root
Ok, good, I close the other thread
Yes true, that is a normal screenshot of magisk offline. Yesterday I did formatted data to disable encryption and I lost all the other screenshots, but was like this: before all options disappeared, then magisk disappeared.
No, no aggressive battery optimization running, but I have installed greenify and amplify... Perhaps one of this app makes problem?
I wish to close the other thread, but I do not know how to do it.
How to do it, please?

Make sure the Manager is removed from Battery optimisation and that it isn't selected I'm Greenify. It's not certain that this is the issue, but it's worth ruling out.
Other than that, a logcat of it happening, or even just a screenshot of the Manager when things aren't working. A Magisk log is also useful, of course.

Just let it be...
Oki.
I removed magisk from battery optimization.
I hope that at least the root will work.
But I seen in another thread that there is a solution known as f2fs workaround bug fixer. But is still not working. I hope that someone will fix it soon.
Anyhow, thank you for all
Move to thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/guide-magisk-official-version-including-t3577875. Flash last zip. Move to magisk manager, install updated (2018.3.6) version. All modules should now install fine.
Hello.
Thank you for the answer.
I have tried to flash the zip without success.
No magisk installation found or installed version is not supported.
Error process 1.
The magisk version I have installed is v16. - 5.6.4(112).
The last one, suppose.
Any suggestions, please?
Thank you in advance ?
I made also the this attempt: I have flashed a magisk module using flashify.
The flashing was successful, but the module is not in the magisk list.
Can be a permission problem? Someone knows where is the folder of installed magisk modules, please? Perhaps is a permission problem and changing permissions will work...
Download f2fs-loopback-bug-workaround-2018.1.31.zip from the thread. Place it in Download folder of internal storage. Reboot to recovery. Flash zip in twrp. Reboot. Open magisk manager. F2FS Loopback Bug Workaround should be installed in modules. I hope any module can be installed from now on.
Dear Pragnan Saha,
Thank you for your answer.
I have tried to flash f2fs-loopback-bug-workaround-2018.1.31.zip, but without success.
TWRP says: No magisk installation found or installed version is not supported. Error process 1.
Some suggestions, please?
Thank you in advance

What thread? And is it about exact the same error ! /data/adb/magisk_merge.img ... What this thread is about?
Do you know if there's a fix already? I'm on ext4 so f2fs loopback makes no sense for me
And @MasterSheea do you have a fix?
I've got exactly the same error with flashing modules, after clean flask is possible to install modules but after 1 reboot it fails
