What is Magisk Root?
Magisk Root is an open-source systemless rooting solution developed by John Wu in 2016. It provides root access by modifying the boot image rather than the system partition, allowing users to run rooted apps and mods without tampering with the core system.
Some key features of Magisk include:
- Systemless interface that doesn't modify system partition
- Ability to hide root status from apps that check for it
- Run mods and tweaks via Magisk Modules
- Pass SafetyNet to allow use of Android Pay, Pokémon Go, Netflix etc.
- Regular updates from an active developer community
Magisk Root allows advanced Android users to take full control over their device's capabilities without tripping Knox flags or other hardware-level integrity checks. It is a popular choice for rooting among custom ROM users and developers.
