Magisk and MagiskHide installation and troubleshooting tips and tricks

Updated for Magisk v19.1(19100) and Manager v7.1.2(208)

What’s this?
This is a collection of troubleshooting tips and tricks for installing Magisk and Magisk modules and
getting MagiskHide to work. Some of these tips might work if you have problems, some of them
won’t.

The guide has been moved to a new location. I've created a wiki that is much more suited for the
purpose of this guide. It's a lot easier to keep neat and clean, easier to link to, etc. The new location
is:
