This guide addresses problems encountered when updating or reinstalling Magisk on a POCO F3 device running Android 14 (version: a34c04f9, code: 28002). The root access remains intact, but the Magisk manager app faces issues during installation or after installation. \n\n**Symptoms:**\n* Updating Magisk via the manager to version 28002 leads to the manager breaking, preventing future installations and upgrades.\n* Reinstalling the Magisk package zip from recovery fails. \n* Reinstalling older or existing Magisk APKs results in the app installing but then uninstalling itself immediately. \n\n**Analysis:** The provided logcat output reveals several errors during Magisk installation and uninstallation. These include: \nq <ul> \n * `deletePackageX` : Magisk itself is actively being deleted. \n * Repeated failures to access the APK file and resources.\n * `PackageSetting` blocked interactions suggesting permission issues during profile installation. \n * `WindowManager` errors related to removal of ActivityRecord and token. \n</ul> \n**Possible Causes:** \nThe errors point towards potential issues with: \n<ul> \n * System corruption \n * File permissions \n * Conflicting packages \n * Incorrect APK installation \n* Problems with Magisk installation process \n</ul> \n**Troubleshooting Steps**: \n1. **Reboot Device:** A simple reboot can sometimes resolve temporary system glitches. \n2. **Check for System Updates:** Ensure your POCO F3 has the latest software updates as bugs might be fixed in newer versions. \n3. **Reinstall Magisk (Clean):** \n * **Backup Relevant Data:** Before making any major changes, it's crucial to back up your important data. \n * **Uninstall Magisk:** Completely remove Magisk (including uninstalling any leftover components). \n * **Factory Reset (Consider):** As a last resort, a factory reset might be necessary to resolve deep-seated system issues. \n4. **Inspect System Logs:** Carefully examine your system logs for any further clues about the installation failure. Look for pattern repeats and error messages. \n5. **Flash Magisk Based on Device:** \n * Potentially, flashing Magisk instead of installing it through an APK package may be more stable on your device. Refer to Magisk’s official documentation for instructions on flashing for your POCO F3 model. \n**Disclaimer:** Performing a factory reset will erase all data on your device. Proceed only if you have backed up your important files. Be cautious when making changes to system files. \n\n**Need More Help?** \n If you continue to face issues, reach out to the Magisk community for support.\n
