How to root Motorola Moto G41 with Magisk?

[xdafan2015]

Hello everyone!

I have searched online for a guide on exactly how to get Magisk on a Motorola Moto G41 but have only found very generic sounding step-by-step guides.
Want to know that I am doing it the right way the first time so that I don't end up bricking the phone or doing something stupid. Have always had Samsung before,
but now I went with a Motorola since I got it for a very good price (they had a sale on them).

All I want is standard rooting on the phone using Magisk so that I can use apps that require root priviliges.
I do not NEED custom recovery such as TWRP if that is not availble. Happy as long as I can get Magisk!

If someone would tell me exactly what to do to make this happen.

P.S: I did look for guides on XDA but I found none for the G31/G41 models.
If there is a current guide that would work please point me to it.

Kindest regards.

First of all thank you for your help.

I did find this tutorial before that you linked to but from all I've read you have to unlock the bootloader before following it, and also it felt a bit too easy to just flash it using stock recovery? Usually that is not permitted.

Also from what I understand you have to extract a certain boot image file from the original firmware and patch that using Magisk...

I also found this general tutorial for getting Magisk on Motorola Moto devices right here on XDA which I intend on trying:

Seems to be what I was looking for in the first place.
