You said root permission is well granted, but app not showing properly? Try ask in the ROM you use to see if anyone had the same problem. Or ask Magisk developer in github and report issue.
I did not encounter this problem, so can not help you.

it would seem that if you install magisk and hide it , and then install other rom and install magisk the previous installation of magisk is interfering.
you should remove the old magisk which is hiding (default name of the hidden app is "settings" under apps).
then it works like a charm.

Is there any different process for non global version, poco x3 pro bought in the uk
You have to set Boris Johnson wallpaper and British national anthem as ringtone otherwise it won't work
Do clean flash.
Format data after flashing ROM. You will loose your personal data and Apps data.
No need to wipe before flashing.
If see this or some hours left, wait for remaining countdown hours.
Can I close the Mi Unlock application or should I leave it opened?
You can close the program. The countdown is done on Xiaomi server.
Did you needed to update the boot.img or the OrangeFox did it for you directly on the partition?I followed this guide and it works. Thanks a lot.
I did however install Magisk through OrangeFox, instead of doing it manually. Worked great!
I had a MI6 and to install Magisc was an easy process, where it was installed from recovery etc.
Now I owe a X3 Pro, I unlocked it and installed twpr on it, same process as MI6
Next I need to do is to install Magisc. If I understood correctly for new prones like X3 Pro we now need to flash a patched boot.img partition on a phone instead of installing Magisc trough recovery like it was done on MI6.
My X3 Pro have stock miui version 12.5.4.0 (RJUEUXM) so I downloaded from the internet a file called
miui_VAYUEEAGlobal_V12.5.4.0.RJUEUXM_c58b88dbee_11.0.zip
boot.img is present in the archive. Is it safe for me to use that boot.img, patch it from the Magisc app and then flash it to the phone?
also, I will have to repeat this process each time a new miui is released?
Can we somehow install magisc like a zip file, like it was done on the MI6?
thanks a lot

You can.
Rename the downloaded APK file extension to ZIP, flash with custom recoveries.
Hey I just got my x3 pro, is this guide still accurate if done today? I bricked a previous phone of mine while rooting, and wanted to make sure if i should do any steps differently or if the proccess is not the same due to changes and updates.
did it, thanks a lot, works fine...
what I realized is, my custom recovery was gone, so I had to reflash it... (not sure why, I did restarted to recovery after first boot, several times! now also) if it disapear again will have to investigate
then I realized, vanced is no more a Magisc module
then I realized, patching boot.img was necesary when recovery was still not working on the X3 pro... (and/or due to some dynamic partitions, not sure what's that still
)now I have to figure out how to pass SafetyNet
and that's it for now thanks again

11. PC Program should jump to Fastboot tab

Look at the Anti version:
This is important for Xiaomi/Redmi/Poco phones.
- Only Official MIUI ROMs may have ARB index.
- Customs ROMs should not have ARB index.
If your device is Anti version: 2,
1) you can flash Rom with Anti Roll Back (ARB) index: 3, 4, 5, 6... etc. and the Anti version will become 3, 4, 5, 6... etc.
2) you can flash Rom with ARB index 2, and the Anti version will remain 2.
3) you CANNOT flash Rom with ARB index 1. Don't use that ROM in anyway, flashing through custom recovery will likely brick your phone.
4) If ARB index is 0, that means no ARB of that ROM. It will not check or change your device Anti version.
Make sure look at ARB index of MIUI ROM and Anti version of your phone. I don't have your phone. You decide to flash.

Q. Why not use Mi-Flash?
A. Because one may easily accidently Clean All and Lock with different region MIUI and brick the device.
Go Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40 and see how many users brick their device using Mi-Flash.
Be sure to check ARB index of MIUI.
Q. Why flash MIUI with TWRP not Fastboot?
A. To check you actually had unlocked bootloader. Without unlocked bootloader, you shouldn't be able to boot into TWRP.
Q. Widevine issues?
A. Read threads in spoiler:
