- this would likely occur on an FDE device with block map OTAs (a la LineageOS) since they do not require/request decrypt - for reference all other addon.d "v1" cases should work fine: 1) FDE with openrecovery script works fine since it requests decrypt 2) FBE with openrecovery script OR block map work fine since /data/adb remains accessible

Introduction
Magisk is a suite of open source tools for customizing Android, supporting devices higher than Android 4.2 (API 17). It covers the fundamental parts for Android customization: root, boot scripts, SELinux patches, AVB2.0 / dm-verity / forceencrypt removals etc.
Furthermore, Magisk provides a Systemless Interface to alter the system (or vendor) arbitrarily while the actual partitions stay completely intact. With its systemless nature along with several other hacks, Magisk can hide modifications from nearly any system integrity verifications used in banking apps, corporation monitoring apps, game cheat detections, and most importantly Google's SafetyNet API.
Bug Reports

Building Environment Requirements
- Python 3: run
build.pyscript - Java Development Kit (JDK) 8: Compile Magisk Manager and sign zips
- Latest Android SDK: set
ANDROID_HOMEenvironment variable to the path to Android SDK - Android NDK: Install NDK along with SDK (
$ANDROID_HOME/ndk-bundle), or optionally specify a custom pathANDROID_NDK_HOME - (Windows Only) Python package Colorama: Install with
pip install colorama, used for ANSI color codes
Building Notes and Instructions
- Clone sources with submodules:
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk.git - Building is supported on macOS, Linux, and Windows. Official releases are built and tested with FrankeNDK; point
ANDROID_NDK_HOMEto FrankeNDK if you want to use it for compiling. - Set configurations in
config.prop. A sample fileconfig.prop.sampleis provided as an example. - Run
build.pywith argument-hto see the built-in help message. The-hoption also works for each supported actions, e.g../build.py binary -h - By default,
build.pybuild binaries and Magisk Manager in debug mode. If you want to build Magisk Manager in release mode (via the-r, --releaseflag), you need a Java Keystore filerelease-key.jks(onlyJKSformat is supported) to sign APKs and zips. For more information, check out Google's Official Documentation.
