Magisks support for Android Lollipop has been pretty broken for a while without it being noticed. Also, none of the active developers of Magisk have actual hardware to run Android Lollipop. We rely on using the official Android emulator for regression testing on older platforms, however Google never shipped a Lollipop emulator image with SELinux support, leaving us with no option but to drop Lollipop support since we don't feel comfortable supporting Android Lollipop without adequate testing.

Magic Mount, the feature that make modules modify partitions, has gone through a major rewrite. The existing implementation doesn't work well with OEMs injecting overlays into their system using overlayfs. The new implementation fundamentally changes how filesystem mirrors are created, giving us a more accurate clone of the unmodified filesystem.


Magisk allows modules to provide custom SELinux patches by including the file sepolicy.rule. Due to the complicated nature of SELinux patching, the compatibility of this functionality has been pretty spotty; many devices are not supported. In this release, a brand new pre-init partition detection mechanism has been designed to support even more devices. Due to complicated reasons, this detection mechanism cannot be performed in a custom recovery environment.


The new Zygisk API v4 is now live! It comes with new features and a refined PLT function hook API. The implementaton of Zygisk has also gone through some major refactoring, including new code loading/unloading mechanisms and a new PLT function hook implementation.


A significant portion of magiskinit (the critical software that runs before your device boots up) is completely rewritten from scratch. Ever since Android introduced Project Treble in Android 8.0, Magisk has been constantly fighting against the increasingly complex partitioning and early mount setups of all kinds of devices, sometimes with weird OEM specific implementations. It got to a point that magiskinit had become so complicated that few people (including myself!) were aware of every detail, and maintaining this piece of software like this was clearly not sustainable. After many months of planning (yes, this whole re-architecture has been in my head for a long time) and some help from external contributors, a whole new sepolicy injection mechanism is introduced into Magisk, solving the "SELinux Problem" once and for all.


Since this is a full paradigm shift on how Magisk hot-patch the device at boot, several behaviors that many developers implicitly relied on might not exist. For example, Magisk no longer patches fstabs in most scenarios, which means AVB will remain intact; some custom kernels rely on AVB being stripped out for them by Magisk.


Many might not realize, but using a trusted, unmodified Magisk app is really important. Magisk's root daemon treats the Magisk app differently and gives it blanket root access without any restrictions. A modded Magisk app can potentially backdoor your device.


And in case some of you are about to put on your tin foil hats, this is not designed to "vendor lock-in"; the goal is to make sure your root management app comes from the same developer of the underlying root implementation. Magisk's build system allows custom distributors to use its own signing keys, and in addition, I am also providing official debug builds which skips any signature verification for development.


Magisk by XDA Recognized Developer topjohnwu has become so popular over the past few years that there is no need for introductions now. But in case you need one, Magisk originally started off as a systemless root method and has gradually evolved into a much more diverse and powerful tool beyond just plain root. The best part about using it is that it allows users to tinker with system settings without actually making changes to system files. The latest major version of Magisk, which corresponds to the twenty-second version (v22), was released back in February, featuring a couple of interesting updates to the interface. And now, the developer has released v22.1 which includes even more changes and bug fixes for both the internal components of Magisk and the Magisk app.


As per the release notes, the update brings improvements to the resetprop module, support for preserving and patching AVB 2.0 structures/headers in boot images, support for cgroup migration, and a rewritten log writer component which aims to resolve crashes and deadlocks.


If you want to check out v22.1 in full detail, go ahead and download it to your device right now from the GitHub link below. All you have to do is change the extension of the downloaded file from APK to ZIP and flash it via custom recovery (most likely TWRP).


It is worth mentioning that Magisk v22 is the last major version to support Android Jellybean and Kitkat. As mentioned by topjohnwu, the next release will only support Android 5.0 Lollipop and higher.


Magisk Manager v22.1 helps you root your devices powered by Android OS. It is an authentic systemless rooting program for Android users. Also, the Magisk v22.1 is an ideal program for Android users to root their devices.


Magisk Manager App allows safely rooting your Android devices. As well as it works on the latest version of Android devices too. Click on the following download button to download Magisk Managers latest version.


Recommend: Never flash the wrong TWRP recovery file. As a result, flashing the wrong recovery file may brick the device. Also, we recommend using the latest version of the Magisk app.


All of the download links and further information can be found on the official GitHub project pages for Magisk v22.1. If you are already running Magisk Manager, the update should already be available to download.


The last Magisk v22 version brought a major change by eliminating Magisk Manager app and a separate Magisk zip and merging them into a standalone APK. According to the developer, the two separate entities often caused confusion as the Magisk zip and Manager APK versions were co-dependent. Now you only need Magisk 22.1 APK installed in order to root your Android device.


Magisk 22.1 APK or Magisk 22.1 ZIP is here for download with several bug fixes. It features all the changes from Magisk 22 and improves on it. For one, it prevents multiple installation sessions running in parallel from within the app. the update also prevent OutOfMemory crashes and several under the hood changes for stability and compatibility with many Android devices or the latest TWRP recovery.


However, if you must, you can simply rename the magisk.apk to .zip and you get a TWRP flashable Magisk zip. It also added a new app for hiding the Magisk app with advanced technique using as stub APK in support of Android 5.0+.


Download Magisk v22.1 on your mobile using this page. This is delivering the original APK file without any changes. We are not doing such a unwanted activities. This is publishing always Magisk APK official release file only. We are provide as service for Magisk Manager opensource project.


It simply means unlocking the android operating system to grant access to the unauthorized section of the phone. Even though you own the handset, you don't have full authority over the phone. You just log in to the system as a user. But after you root it, you can do whatever you want with your device. Such as installing apps that unapproved, unlock the bootloader and remove unwanted bloatware, installing custom ROMs, and customize it furthermore as you wish.


It's kind of similar to apple jailbreak. And the most amazing part is android rooting can also be led to high performance and longer battery life. Well, now you know about rooting. Then what is the connection between android rooting and the Magisk Manager? Hang on, we are going to talk about it.


As they say it, it's a mask for android. Does that complicate things for you even more? well, if you are new to android rooting you probably have no idea that there are some struggles that have to be overcome when you have a rooted device. If you have a rooted android phone, you don't get OTA updates! Yeah, that's right. You have to unroot it, then get the update and root again. And some applications won't even allow running in rooted handsets. Especially banking applications.


That's when the Magisk manager apk comes to the rescue. It's a systemless rooting solution. It can cover the rooted system like a mask and you won't have to be bothered to go between rooting and unrooting. It doesn't affect the core code either. You can get OTA updates, use banking applications and do whatever you couldn't do from a rooted mobile phone.
