[HELP] Pixel Fastboot Magisk Patched Boot.img Installation

[Zaf9670]

I downloaded the boot.img from the files that matched my version on the Google developers page. I loaded the boot.img and ran the Magisk Manager install option.

Took the patched_boot.img and flashed it to my Pixel then rebooted. Magisk Manager didn't show it was installed. Then I remembered I have slot A and B. So I went back installed, swapped to the other slot and installed again. Boot took a little longer this time. After the boot finished Magisk Manager still didn't show installed.

Any ideas on what steps I missed? Any successful Pixel 1/2 owners who have installed without TWRP or previous root?

I'm unrooted but have my bootloader unlocked from when I was using TWRP/SuperSU long ago. I wanted to move to Android 8 for the security updates and features. Now I want Magisk because I miss having root options.

Which versions are we talking about? Log?
Why open a new thread instead of posting in an existing one?

Beta v14.3, didn't see one fitting my specific issue but I also probably didn't search well enough, and I will have to get/find the logs.

Are you referring to logs from Magisk itself or do I need to turn on logging in the developer menu somewhere and try to reflash the patched boot.img?

I asked for versions (pl!) for a reason: there are many. You forgot to mention the manager and eventually twrp.
Simply post in the beta thread with a the available information and including a magisk log.

The quickest and easiest way is to download the 14.3 zip on your phone, then boot into TWRP via fastboot/ADB on your computer. Once in TWRP find the zip file and install. Then reboot. That is what I did and it took no time at all. Keeps stock recovery allowing OTA updates.
