Camera not working anymore, and it may have something to do with Magisk - Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers

I just realized my camera isn't functioning anymore.
Each timeI try to open the stock camera app, the app will now say "can't connect to camera" and then quits. Other apps that make use of the camera will also complain about a problem with it.
Coincidentally, I upgraded magisk (canary build) to version ce7cb1ee (20706) last night. And I was using my camera just yesterday with no problems at all.
So I strongly suspect it may have something to do with the latest magisk build. Anything I can do to revert it back to the previous version?
(also note to self: do a full TWRP backup, and backup my own data too using methods like tar, next time before flashing new magisk)

Try to flash magisk 20.3 via twrp and delete cache and dalvik

Maybe stupid question, but have you tried to reset your phone? Xd
Have you any camera mods in Magisk modules, like Camera 2 API enabler or sth?

Thanks for replying !
I am now all but certain the latest Magisk canary build (edit: version 20306) as a compatibility bug with MIUI 10.
Ended up flashing to MIUI 11, installed Magisk, no issues.
Just for the sake of testing, I used MiFlash to do a fresh install of MIUI10, then installed Magisk. Camera became useless. Flashed previous version of Magisk canary. Things went back to normal.
Because of this I spent hours upgrading to MIUI 11 (so it gave me extra motivation to finally made the move), figuring out what to debloat, and did a slow and arduous operation of moving data slowly back to the system (so I can have a clean fresh MIUI11 with empty data partition and empty storage to begin with). So all is still good i guess.

Help flashing ROM (KatKiss), Magisk, Gapps and being able to download Netflix

I'm right now I'm at a point where I hate stock and these custom roms are great, but hate being held back by the Play store no longer allowing me to download/update Netflix which is used often.
Previously I had installed
KatKiss - Nougatella #023,
SuperSU
Gapps - Stock
I suppose I could have just installed netflix through the apk but I figured that would only be a temp solution.
So my first steps were to wipe and go back to stock.
I then proceeded to add CWM recovery back (Also tried with TWRP)
I wiped
I then ran an uninstall SuperSU zip (which may or may not have been needed but seemed safer to try.
I installed KatKiss
Then Magisk
Then Gapps - Stock
This will cause lots of crashing right from the start of the setup wizard... the the app/stopped don't ever stop. A lot of google related stuff as soon as I conect to Wifi.
I started over.
This time I installed Gapps - Mini instead.
No longer crashes the set up wizard. Everything seems stable.
At this point I have access to the tablet through KatKiss.
When I run Magisk Manager, the safetynet check never finished. Just spins.
If I hide the PlayStore from root and try to find Netflix it won't be there.
However, if I now install Gapps-Stock through recovery at this point... I can then go back to the Play Store and find Netflix. It will be there.
However, I still can't pass SecureNet check. It just spins.
I first thought to myself... Thats ok. I don't need it, Netflix was really the issue I needed addressing and I have that.
So I started putting apps back on my tablet to find... apps were crashing more. Facebook for example will never work. Just crashes on startup.
So something just isn't right and I don't really know what I'm doing. In the past I always just followed easy to follow guides.
Note: I believe I have better luck with KatKiss build #021. 023 gave me more issues with this process so I had 021 on hand.
You really should go with the gapps version recommended by the dev of your rom and that would be pico gapps in this case. If you flash a different gapps package you're on your own for trouble shooting fc'ing apps and system UI and such...
I have no idea if this rom works with Magisk and would be tickled to find out, but I don;t have the time for it right now. On other devices there were problems when the rom was pre-rooted or for some the build-in busybox did not work and they had to flash a different version. There could also be a problem if the boot image has been modded for SuperSU and idk if it has been on this rom.
Try this first:
If you flashed any other than pico gapps version you really should format /data before reflashing the rom. That done:
format /system, wipe /cache and Dalvik, then flash the rom and pico gapps, then flash unsu by osmosis followed by the Magisk flash. Then install Magisk Manager and try to pass Safetynet with both Busybox enabled and disabled.
Let me know how it goes
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63615067
Edit: couldn't help myself - had to try it :cyclops:
So I tried a quick and dirty switch from SuperSU rooted Katshmallow v33 to the same rom with Magisk. No reflash, just wiped cache and Dalvik, flashed unsu and then Magisk. Root works fine but it does not pass Safetynet check, Netflix app does not show in Playstore, device is uncertified in Play.
The failed check says: CTS profile mismatch and I believe that is the problem with the Busybox version that comes with Magisk. Read something somewhere about replacing it with a different one which solved the problem for some folks...
I'll dig some more later....
Thanks for the info. I didn't realize the importance of using Gapps-Pico in this case. I just figured they were recommending a light-weight Gapps opposed to a larger one... So I always went with "stock" and never had an issue.
I'll keep that in mind for debugging future issues.
I'm not sure how important formatting /system was... I always left that one alone, but I was formatting /data /cache and Dalvik
That CTS profile stuff all seems beyond my knowledge at the moment. I guess let me know what you find when you do.
Thanks again
No issues? I thought you had "lots of crashing".. ??
So you want me to do all the leg work, yes? Sorry man, it's you who wants Netflix :silly:
I dirty flashed the rom, ran unsu, then flashed Magisk and osmosis' Busybox but Safetynet check still fails for me...
Don't have time to do a clean install just now, but that would be the next step...
I like Magisk as systemless root and I got it working for my purposes.
As for Netflix - I don't use it much on the tablet and I just squirreled away the 4.16.1 version. Just in case I accidentally update it to the newer ones....
Sorry if that was unclear. I meant I never had any issues using Gapp Stock before this whole Rooted/Netflix thing came up last week. Now it is what it is.
And yeah, I didn't mean for it to be like I was asking anything of you. I'm not. You just seemed like the type who would be tinkering with this kind of stuff. If not, no worries.
Information/guidance is what I'm after. Not leg work.
I'm sure I just need to be patient really. Since a lot of people use Netflix I'm sure this will get a lot more attention in the near future.
Thanks again.

[ROOT] [Magisk] [Galaxy S6] - Magisk-root uninstalls automatically?

Hello,
I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S6(64GB, Exynos) with Magisk-root. But I have the issue that it automatically uninstalls. And suddenly it’s unroot. Then I have to reinstall the Magisk-vXX.X.zip with TWRP (X.XX is the version, for example: 14.0 or 13.3). But after some hours it is uninstalled again and I lost the root access.
Then I have to repeat this...
Does someone have the same problem? Or does someone know how to fix this?
I don't want to reinstall the Magisk-package everytime i need root-access.. And I don't want to switch to another root because I like the Magisk-hide-function.
Or are there other roots with hide function?
(I don't want to install a Custom ROM!)
Thank you
Larry

I had the same problem with my Nexus 6P.
I was on stock ROM and stock kernel and it happened twice.
Now I'm on stock ROM and EX Kernel and problems seemed go away.

I have the same problem, galaxy S6.
I noticed losing root randomly and fixed it by going install patch boot img then you flash the boot img in recovery. So far it's been a day no root loss

Hi ! I have sale problem with my S8+ with custom rom and Custom kernel
Hello.
I am having the same issue with my S6. I have tried all of the advice from previous threads with regard to different versions of Magisk.. (Removing Busy Box / Not using the Magisk Hide feature... etc etc..). I have also been through as many extra options as I can think of, getting all of the "Update" patches from the other developers who have helped with the Magisk project.
Each time, I have run through all of the aditional scripts to make sure SU and Magisk have been completely removed prior, and then used Odin to do a recovery back to my Original ROM (a complete system backup image I previously saved).
The other interesting observation i have at the moment is that i can not get to the Log cat files to post them anywhere. I can see where they are supposed to be but the directory is empty "no files". I have even been as far as downloading one of the many "Mobile Forensic" software kits to try and see if there is anything wrong with my phone.
There is only one observation to report. It seems that after installing Magisk (even if you just install the main ROM and not the manager). Google play starts to download straight away... I am not sure what it is downloading as it doesn't ever seem to complete and all of my versions of the apps are up to date.
I hope I will be able to get some more usefull information for you soon (LogCat etc etc.). If any one has an answer or suggested options it would be good. I am particularly interested in getting the Busy Box feature to work with Root as I am working on an app for my job that needs both options (I work offshore and am trying to adapt a piece of Seismic QC software (unix based) to run on phones / tab's - Android).
I will sign up properly and start to follow the threads more closely.
Cheers... Andy

So long story short, there's no definitive solution to the problem. Im using a g920p with a custom kernel built by a genius dev, and i still lose root once a day.
Basically what it comes down to is modules. If you have zero modules, you'll have better luck... But that's not the point of magisk, so you need to be picky with modules. Use osmosis's busybox from the magisk repo, but other than that, install modules 1 at a time and see if it affects root.
Another tip: uninstall all updates of the "device maintenance" app, and find it in Google play and turn off automatic updates. Then go to device maintenance > battery > unmonitored apps and magisk manager to the list of unmonitored apps... Then go back the battery screen, battery usage > 3 dots in top right > optimize battery usage, and make sure magisk manager is not optimized... That should help some. (Note: some models don't have device maintenance, but you'll still have the "optimize battery usage" option some where.)
The Google play thing you're seeing is likely "instant apps" updating. I believe that should be unrelated to all this, but some aspects of instant apps is a mystery.
As for the logcat thing, i believe you're getting logcat confused with the magisk_debug.log located in /data ? If that's the case, you need to be using the beta version of magisk. Go to magisk and set the update channel to beta, you'll get a notification to update magisk, download it and flash. (Or if the recommended native install is an option, use that)
I recommend just using he normal 14.3 magisk... You'll have issues, but they will be predictable and easy to solve with a simple reboot. There's really no final solution for us unfortunately, just making it as stable as possible.
Lastly, it helps if once every once in a while you fully uninstall magisk with the uninstall.zip, reboot (you might not get a bootloop, in which case hold volume up +power+ home to boot into recovery), reflash magisk 14.3, and then wipe cache and art/davik.

Hello again.
So in response.
I followed the advice given... (just as a note previously the root issue would happen within an hour of restarting the device). I have been to the beta thread and read through all advice. Before jumping to the Magisk 14.3, I started with Magisk 14.2, there was a post recommending this as a critical update to Magisk 14.0.
I had no issues with this install (I had once again used my backup to revert the phone back to all original).
I then added any of the modules i wanted one at a time waiting over an hour before looking at adding any additional modules.
So far, I have not lost root and the phone is working as expected (alot better infact). I have all the Busybox modules +add-on's running, still no issues.
The upgrade to v14.2 seems to have fixed all for my uses.
Thanks to all for help and advice.

Glad everything is good! Sometimes magisk will get messed up, so just updating or even reinstalling will fix things.
Just keep in mind, its very likely you'll have problems again down the road... Samsung phones do a lot of weird stuff under the hood, and eventually symlinks will get broken, files deleted etc... So when that does happen, the best you can do is uninstall, reflash, update, and watch your modules.
Today updated to 15.3 and install James DSP root losed...When open magisk ask for installation reboot to recovery twrp install latest zip reboot open magisk it close it self and root lost again ?! Any advice from @topjohnwu
Do you guys mind posting a resource that shows how to root the S6 using magisk? I'm very rusty, last time I dealt with rooting was 8 years ago. Any help is appreciated. Thanks

[Ask][Troubleshooting] Magisk Makes the ROM Super Laggy

What I did:
- Wipe all (clean install).
- Flash latest Official MoKee ROM (Nougat).
- Flash latest GApps.
- Flash latest Magisk.
- Reboot.
After finished the Wizard Setup and before doing anything, my phone got very laggy, open menu, open Settings, etc.
Then I clean install again like the steps above, but this time using SuperSU, and everything normal, so I stick with SuperSU for now.
My questions, what is the cause of the lags? Is it known bug in Magisk, the ROM itself (not compatible), or GApps? I also heard ResurrectionRemix had the same problem after installing Magisk, so many people revert back to SuperSU.
Thanks,
I have Resurrectionremix and Magisk 14.3
No any lag on my phone.

I only flash the ROM, GApps and Magisk without any additional flashable ZIPs.
Honestly that doesn't sound like Magisk. I've ran Magisk on literally probably 20 ROMs between Angler and Pixel XL and never Magisk caused lag... Did u try a different rom? Just curious, or maybe it's some incompatibility with that specific rom and magisk

I tried several ROMs that based on LOS and all same, maybe it's caused by LOS base that used in those ROMs. And since you say so, probably it's not an issue in Magisk, but the ROM itself.
I'll try Magisk again later when some ROM's builds available for my device.

I think my questions has been answered (it's appear not issue in Magisk side) and this thread can be closed.

Ya I was gonna say cause I use all AOSP and CAF based
I had this issue with Lineage 14.1 and AEX before.
Now I don't have this issue anymore.
What I do is:
- Wipe everything
- Install ROM
- Install GApps
- Reboot and finish Setup Wizard (then I install some or all apps that I use)
- Reboot to TWRP and flash Magisk.
The first time I reboot after flashing Magisk it's still a little slower than normal. Then I reboot one more time and never faced this anymore.
Now I do this everytime I make a clean install and everytime it works.

So don't flash Magisk along with the ROM?
Instead finish Wizard Setup first and back to TWRP to flash Magisk. I'll try this if the issue still persist. Many Thanks

Yes.
Try it and let me know if this also fix the problem for you.
Yes, Magisk is the thing that's causing lag and stutter. My Nexus 5X is also barely responding to any commands if I flash Magisk right after a ROM clean installation. If you flash only the ROM, then you can finish setting up the device without much stutter or hiccups in performance.
If, after a clean installation (or after installing Magisk - didn't try this though) you use the phone without Magisk for a bit, maybe install some apps, etc, you'll see that everything is nice and smooth.
Now, you can check the smoothness without Magisk and with Magisk installed like this:
- Without Magisk: Update 'Google App' to the latest version then try to open the side panel from the latest Pixel Launcher. You'll see that opening/closing it is nice and smooth, and scrolling up and down is also smooth.
- With Magisk installed (without using any modules): The moment the phone turns on, at first, things might seem OK. First wait for the phone to settle down after the reboot for a few minutes. Then try opening the side panel. You'll see some stutter while dragging that panel to the right, maybe not huge, but it's there. Scrolling up and down is also stuttery. At first I thought it was because of the latest version of Google App, or the new cards design, or even the images in there, but that wasn't the issue. Then I thought maybe the launcher was somehow influencing Google App's performance, but that wasn't either the issue.
AND it was like I completely forgot about SuperSU and didn't even think of trying it in order to see how things were.
I even rebased my ROM in the hope that I'd find the culprit, and still nothing. Nothing weird appeared in any logs, which was so annoying. And a few hours ago, after finishing up cleaning up my sources (for other reasons), I compiled a fresh new build, and it crossed my mind to try SuperSU, just for the hell of it, and BOOM ! No more lag and stutter. The phone is snappy and responsive again.
I'll try to contact the dude behind Magisk and see what he has to say, or leave a comment in his thread.
The thing is, those with more recent phones, like the Pixels or any other phones than are more powerful than mine, might not notice what I described above, but there should be some stutter there, no matter how small, maybe in other scenarios as well.
The thing is, Magisk kinda slowly took the place of Xposed, at least that's what it looks like to me, and I personally don't like that but that's how things are, I suppose. All those modules or at least one of them WILL cause issues sooner or later, just like on Xposed.
But in the end, yes, it's Magisk what's destroying your phone's performance and nothing else. So if you're not really in the need to have your phone pass SafetyNet, and want to have your phone snappy and lag-free, use SuperSU, at least until things get better on Magisk.

I'm glad I'm not the only one experienced this issue, that's mean it's not entirely user fault. Maybe you're right, on more high-spec phones they won't really notice the lags/stutters.
Looking forward to the news/updates regarding this issue.

I don't mean to necrobump, but did it work? I have an LG G4 (H815) and suffered the same issue. Like you, I only flashed magisk right after flashing the ROM (LG nougat).

I don't mean to necrobump, but did it work? I have an LG G4 (H815) and suffered the same issue. Like you, I only flashed magisk right after flashing the ROM (LG nougat).
Thanks

I haven't got the chance to try it.
Currently I'm using SuperSU to root my device.
I tried installing magisk on my currently in use ROM, i.e., a long time after flashing it, and although it got less laggy, there still was a heavy lag impact in some applications. Maybe it has less impact on lineage or on lighter ROMs? I'm using official LG nougat.
I'm using Mi 6 in Xiaomi.eu rom
YES, magisk causing laggy.
Same here
Mi5, tested on MIUI 9 and 10
Without Magisk everything was great and after flashing Magisk, the phone got laggy!
I have the same problem with my LG G6
interesting, first I thought that emmc will be broken. because the problem is the same (lag). but after i replace emmc, all back is fine. I just think emmc is broken because it is often flashing rom.

What I did:
- Wipe all (clean install).
- Flash latest Official MoKee ROM (Nougat).
- Flash latest GApps.
- Flash latest Magisk.
- Reboot.
After finished the Wizard Setup and before doing anything, my phone got very laggy, open menu, open Settings, etc.
Then I clean install again like the steps above, but this time using SuperSU, and everything normal, so I stick with SuperSU for now.
My questions, what is the cause of the lags? Is it known bug in Magisk, the ROM itself (not compatible), or GApps? I also heard ResurrectionRemix had the same problem after installing Magisk, so many people revert back to SuperSU.
Thanks,

what magisk version 16.0 or beta? magisk can't make the phone lag but kernel or something in ROM may interrupt try to change kernel or flash the lastest Gapps

help for rooted note 8

Hi guys. I need some help for my rooted galaxy note 8. I had rooted my phone a long ago and all was working good. All apps including banking apps were working fine with magisk hide. But few days ago i wanted to update my phone so i flashed stock rom with odin and updated my device. Earlier my bootloader version was 6 and now its updated to version 8. Then after updating i flashed latest twrp and rooted with magisk. I flashed magisk version 20.1 and magisk manager version was 7.4.0 . Then magisk update was available so i updated to magisk version 20.2 and magisk manager to version 7.5.0 . Now the problem starts. I am facing 3 issues.
1- my phone starts freezing and then reboots randomly. It happens quite frequently atleast 2-3 times in a day. Every time i clear cache partition from twrp but problem persists. I had checked ram also but ram useage is also fine. Please help me with this issue.
2- while searching for the solution of above problem i read somewhere that it might be because of safety net check. Earlier safetynet check was pass but now safety net check was fail. I flashed bypass safety net mod. But when my phone reboot a warning appears that your device has some internal problem. Contact the manufacturer. I pressed ok and phone starts. It seems to work normal but then i realised my device was not connecting to any wifi network. When i click on available wifi nothing happened. So i uninstalled the safety net bypass mod and then wifi start working again.
3- now final thing i want to know. If the above problem did not solve then i have to unroot my phone which i dont want. But if i had to then i dont want to flash stock rom. I want to unroot from magisk app itself. I had edited build.prop file for using samsung health app. So now if i unroot from magisk app will the changes made by me in build.prop file remain or it will revert back. Also will banking apps work or not....
I know its very lengthy post but please help
Wow...

Try going back to previous version of Magisk. I have Snapdragon N8 so I have supersu. But I did update my A20g with newest Magisk and had an issue. I know you have N8 but was just saying maybe could be new Magisk.
My SM-N950U Still Rooted Note 8

Camera and Recorder apps not working on rooted P5

When I try launching the stock camera app on my rooted Pixel 5, the launch-screen is shown briefly (black background with camera icon) before the app crashes. Same thing with the stock recorder, but here, not even the launcher screen appears, there's just nothing happening. No error messages are displayed whatsoever.
I rooted my phone by patching the boot.img using magisk, and when flashing the stock boot.img in fastboot, both apps are working just fine. It's not the camera itself that is causing the issue, every other app taking advantage of the camera apart from the stock camera app is working as usual, I can take photos in Snapchat without problems for example. Does anyone know a fix for this or is there anything I can do to debug the apps? My research on this issue didn't lead to any results.
I installed the latest firmware version for my model from the official google site yesterday (RQ3A.210705.001), but the issues were already present before (on version RQ1A.210105.003). I installed it using the
Bash:
install-all.sh
script, removing the
Bash:
-w
flag from the last command to keep all my data, in case this is relevant.
Thanks in advance.
Update July 13:
Uninstalling the EdXposed Magisk Module and Gravitybox solved the issue.
Update July 13 #2:
Turns out I'm a moron, just blacklisting the two apps in the EdXposed Manager would've been sufficient. Welp, next time I'll research a bit harder.

Yes I was and it was the problem's root, uninstalling Edxposed and Gravitybox solved the issue. Would've liked to keep Gravitybox but I'd rather have a working camera. I didn't have time to update my post yet. Thanks for your reply though!
