Are you using supersu currently? As far as I know, you need to unroot your phone before flashing Magisk.
You can do it easily by clicking "Unroot" in SuperSU.
If there is some other problem, please provide details.

Phone is rooted but superuse won't give root access

So I have a Starmobile Quest which is a local smartphone and I rooted it using a chinese rooting program called iroot, formerly vroot, as suggested by people using the same phone. At first the superuser app(which is a Chinese one) is working fine and I could use apps requiring root access but suddenly, something happened and now it won't give root access to any of the apps. I think, maybe root was somehow removed, and downloaded the root checker app and when I ran it, it told me that I wasn't rooted.
So I unrooted my phone using iroot and it was successful and again rooted it which was again successful. I go and run root checker again and I was surprised to see that I wasn't rooted. From there I repeated the unrooting and rooting process several times and still nothing. What I did notice was that whenever iroot was checking whether my phone was rooted, a pop up would appear on my phone which is from the superuser app asking for permission to give "shell" root access and I would always say yes.
I believe that my phone is actually rooted but the superuser app isn't promting me for root access whenever I use apps that require root, plus there is no log saved except for the "shell" one. I tried changing root access manager app to supersu and when I run it it tells me that it needs to update su binary. I click yes and use the normal method(I don't have cwm) and it tells me it's installing but after awhile I receive an error saying "installation failed. try rebooting.". I reboot my phone and try updating again and it still fails.
I tried everything the internet threw at me, reroot, factory reset, clear data, clear cache, etc and nothing's working. Can someone help me here?
Note: I can't find a stock/custom rom for my device. So flashing roms isn't an option for me.
Bump.
have you tried to flash another version of superuser?

Do you need a custom recovery for that? Because the model of the phone doesn't have a custom recovery yet.
Also, I tried to install supersu from the play store and it didn't work.

Damn it. I guess I'll have to wait till they make a stock rom which I think isn't gonna happen since it's been half a year since the phone is released and there hasn't been any development.
Last question, Is it possible to flash your phone using a computer?

Yes absolutely. Just note that there are no rooting apps on the Play Store. Simply downloading SuperSU or Superuser will NOT root your phone. You need to be rooted first, and if the SuperSU or Superuser app isn't automatically installed, then once you root you can install SuperSU or Superuser to manage apps that require root.
Popular methods of rooting include z4root, framaroot, MTKTools and iroot (or vroot)
Z4root and framaroot are both android applications which you will need to get from their sites or XDA (just run a search). MTKtools and iroot/vroot are computer applications and use ADB. MTKTools can also create a custom recovery for your device, though I don't remember the process too well.
Once you're rooted you will either have your Superuser app installed or you'll have to install it yourself (I personally prefer SuperSU). I also recommend installing busybox as well.
Hope that helps.

So how do I do that?
Hello my buddy so I 've read your thread, there are many apps to do root like root master, framaroot, towel root, towelpieroot. And the way to install super su is doing again the root. And after to install it again.
These apps to do root.

So MTKTools can be found scattered all over XDA, and Framaroot has a dedicated thread (which I cannot link right now as I am on my phone). If memory serves, Jellybean and below had Dev options enabled by default. If not, go to settings -> About Device and tap on the build number several times until your dev options are enabled. Then simply enable USB debugging. When you plug in your device you may need to authenticate your PC to use the Debug bridge. Just hit accept. (I'm sure that you were aware of how to enable ADB but I felt I had to explain anyway)
I assume you have the ADB drivers for your device, but if not, there is a naked USB driver installer floating around XDA (I really would only trust XDA with stuff like this)
With ADB enabled you can use the iroot and MTKTools PC applications. Both are generally straightforward but don't hesitate to ask me if you have a question.
With the APK apps you can get from XDA and abroad, you can root the device somewhat easily.
Framaroot (last time I used it) has four options for rooting (latest version is 1.9.3) you will see all info you need on that thread.
Z4 root I do not recommend. It is somewhat outdated now, though you might want to try it as a last resort
Towelroot is fairly simple as well. Simply download and run the app and you'll either get root or you won't.
My personal recommendations are MTKTools for a pc toolkit (seeing as it can compile a custom recovery too, which it did for my Lenovo S6000)
For apk rooting, I suggest Framaroot. I've never had any problems with it thus far.
I hope that explained it enough but if not, don't hesitate to ask questions. After all, you never learn if you don't ask ^-^
Nevermind guys. I downloaded a bunch of rooting programs and tried them. Root Genius worked and now I have root access. Thanks for replying to this thread.
ReInstall SuperSU and check with Android Terminal Emulator.

Do you have SuperSU on it? If so just look in SuperSu settings - there is a choice in there to Unroot. choose that, reboot and you should be set.

Honestly ive done that thats why im asking to hide my root... the rootcloak doesnt work.. i have added the exception and reboot but still gives error something about rooted

Should I root my BLU Life XL (L050U)?

First of all, Im a complete noob at this. I have rooted a phone about 3 years ago, but I've completely forgot all of that, so please go easy on me.
Anyway, the only reason I want to root is to uninstall unremovable bloatwares. Anything else is minor for me. I wouldnt even want to replace the stock rom.
The reason why Im uncertain about rooting this is because the phone seems to be very obscure. The BLU Life XL (L050U) isnt even the first result on google when you search for it. Some say that Kingroot works fine on this, although they say it bricks the phone when you try to unroot it or replace kingroot with SuperSU and there is no fix to it cause there is no stock rom anywhere.
Is it worth it to root it?
Totally worth it
I got the same device rooted with Kingroot. Also i tried to unroot with the same app and i got success. i dont know about kingroot replaced by SuperSU.
Uninstall Kingroot is not working as well. I recomend you to install another uninstaller root.
I apologize for my english. Is not my first language

Thanks! I'll probably try myself. But what do you mean by uninstall Kingroot is not working? Do you mean that you cant uninstall king root even after unrooting it?
Kingroot app brings an unistaller, this action is not working!

Dirty flash your rom again w/o flashing SuperSU
I believe there is unroot option in SuperSU and Superuser but the answer above is sure win
Open the SuperSU App and go to Settings, under settings you'll find a "Full unroot" option. Click it, and follow the instructions further.
Tried all of em. Nothing seems to work. I'm on official build by sanjay varun. It has buildin cm root. After removal in developer page it shows only disabled n adb options for root access. Still application detects as device is rooted
Magisk ahve a miodule to hide root. Maybe you can try it...
Or SuHide?

Root And TWRP Help Please

Hi
Im trying to root and install custom recovery for my oneplus 7t pro (hd1913, 10.0.7)
1. When i tried to root with magisk i was able to root and flash the modded boot.img, root seems to work only like 20%, tired to install module from magisk like vanced utube and worked
but everything else requires root like ad removing and bloatware removing cannot work.
2. When i tried to install twrp it almost every time failed, i only succeded to get it to boot and not really flash, guess its not available for the device yet.
I dont really mind about the twrp, ill install it if it will ever get out.
But the root, i have to make it work, its only works partially, what can i do?

TWRP doesn't work which has been stated many times in the thread.
And what do you mean with ad removing and bloatware removing? How and what app?

Go to mag , settings, systemless host then install adaway and your done
and you dont need to flash the magisk patched img. just boot it up in fastboot. then go to magisk and do install direct. then restart and wait to unplug you phone.
