Yes, I did exactly how it is written.

Magisk is installed, but I have no root functionality.

Edit: Are you guys using "adb push" with drmfix, safetynet and magisk? I'm doing it then I flash it. I noticed my twrp is not mounting some partitions.

Magisk is breaking safetynet for me

Is it an oreo problem or why do I have sound stuttering in system sounds or WhatsApp voicemails?
Could it be there kernel? How is the kernel modified anyway?

Edit:
What I also noticed is that it kinda gets stuck when powering it off (at the shutting down phone window)
And when turned off and plugged on charger, I need to boot it twice as it just goes back to the charging screen the first time.
That looks like a kernel problem as well.

guys, at these steps:

05- Unplug and enter TWRP (Hold vol down + power button)
06- Flash drmfix.zip
07- Flash SafetyNet Cleaning Tools.zip then Magisk v14.5.zip if you need root link
07- When done flashing unplug device .. (Do not boot yet !!)
08- Enter fastboot mode and flash the given kernel image
Code:

fastboot flash boot boot_oreo.img

09- Unplug and enter TWRP (Hold vol down + power button)
10- Flash drmfix.zip
11- Flash SafetyNet Cleaning Tools.zip then Magisk v14.5.zip if you need root link
do i need a SD card to copy those .zip to first then plug in?
or we copy .zip to our computer then use adb to flash it onto phone?
im really new to this kind of flash :confused:

AFAIK, there are two ways to do it.

1) At TWRP, plug your phone to USB and use command "adb push drmfix.zip /sdcard/", and the same for the other 2 files

2) Put your files at micro sdcard and inside TWRP, touch "install" and the navigate do /sdcard1/

Hi guys,

I just had a question regarding keeping my phone rooted on Oreo. I haven't used Magisk before, so in the step where you flash Magisk, can I just flash SuperSU? Will that achieve the same purpose with regards to rooting the phone?

Unfortunately if you do that phone will start bootlooping. I've tested it.

TQ for your work. I really appreciate it. It's work with magisk and everything. But I have one problem. I need to uninstall all the bloatware. After I install system app remover from Google play store, and try uninstall it as usual, it didn't work. It failed. What should I do and suggest me an app similar to this. Thanks in advance.

I found a solution for my XZ.

TWRP was not able to decrypt userdata partition, for some unknown reason, so I flashed Oreo again and ran a

Code:
fastboot format userdata
Now root works. Maybe this can help someone.

Delete manually using file explorer, find app folder and delete
