V7 is not even out...

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....

Supersu does modify the sepolicy. So that's the trick, nice to know!

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.

    I'm just curious why Magisk takes heat in the form of negative feedback/criticism on either Play store or here. Its no secret how developer unfriendly Samsung has become. Device bootloaders have been locked and KNOX'd since Galaxy S5 (last device I owned, S4). Point being, it's nothing new, if you're purchasing a Samsung device, you're making a very conscious, binary choice, that you don't care about playing god with these phones. Everyone has their own uses for any particular device.
    Why is it then, you're entitled to (or think you are), to criticize the app, or leave any negative feedback of any sort? You wanna buy a Samsung, fine, nobody's stopping you; but then you give up all privs/rights to even have an opinion on anything power user related, whether it be Xposed, any of its modules, or the Magisk project, or any project really that has its scope or any functionality resembling it. You paid for the device, knowing Samsung has it locked down tighter than any nun walking the earth, and yet somehow the app developer is at some fault?
    Phone enthusiasts/geeks already know before purchasing the phone,--WELL IN ADVANCE--the type of "playing" they'll be doing, there is just no excuse at all, for keeping up on current events/developments in the community regarding root and systemless toys, and then going out and buying a Samsung.
    Bootloader exploits aren't very common, just how much has the situation evolved on the Samsung front? S5 gets bootloader unlock some 3yrs after its flagship release, with multiple newer generation galaxy's available; and the rest remain useless as ever, in this context.
    Not trolling anyone, not blaming anyone, not hostile. Just trying to understand why any person who knows anything about acquiring root, or anything about bootloaders in general, ultimately allowing/denying you access to do certain things to YOUR device, why then did you buy a Samsung, and how is it you wound up leaving criticism to Magisk, be it play store or forum?
    Its kind of ashame that this is somewhat downplayed here, XDA should do more to point users in the direction of avoiding such harsh, extreme, developer unfriendly manufacturers & their devices. Either way, it is not "fair" for anybody to have a $500+ device, which the user does not truly own, it's simply on a rental system, privilege-wise, at best.
    Developers of any and all power toys, mods, etc. should not be subject to any opinion whatsoever, of any user with a Samsung device. Binary choice made by the user, nothing grey area about it.

    I foud a solution : Magisk-v12 (beta version) works fine !!!
    You can download Magisk-v12-170327.zip from here : https://github.com/stangri/MagiskFiles
    You can flash it with TWRP over version 11.1 or from scratch on a fresh stock nougat ROM...
    You can download MagiskManager-v5.0-170322.apk (beta version) here : https://github.com/stangri/MagiskFiles
    FYI I already tested the upgrade with MagiskManager-v5 from Magisk-v12-170327 to Magisk-v12-170328 : works fine too !!!

How properly install magisk on SuperMan rom 1.19 with magisk for safety net pass green ?

    Currently magisk hide does not work on samsung due to some namespace modifications. Means you can only pass safetynet on enforcing kernel (like stock, NOT custom) and WITHOUT any root method installed. Like you also mentioned above. We need to wait for topjohnwu to make magiskhide working on samsung as well
