Zygisk's DenyList allows you to hide apps from detecting Magisk and root, prevent showing incompatile device or fake bugs such as crashes, stuck, connection error. DenyList is basically MagiskHide, but doesn't 100% hide. Some apps may still detecting it

This tutorial is for official Magisk only. If you are using Magisk-Delta, you are in the wrong place, please read this tutorial How to hide Magisk-Delta from root detections - Platinmods.com - Android & iOS MODs, Mobile Games & Apps

Hiding Magisk App
Let's start hiding Magisk app first

Open Magisk-Delta and open settings on the top-right corner



Under App sction click on Hide the magisk app



You will be prompted how the app should be called. The default name is Settings. Click OK when you are done



Please wait for a few seconds. Don't do anything until it relaunches. After it relaunches, it may prompt you if you want to create a shortcut to your home screen. Click OK if you want to create a shortcut



Then click Add automatically



Installing hiding modules
There are 2 hiding modules for Magisk, Shamiko and MagiskHide. I recommended you try Shamiko first. If something does not work, you can try switch to MagiskHide.

DO NOT USE BOTH MODULES SIMULTANEOUSLY, OTHERWISE ALL APPS WILL STOP WORKING AND MAY BRICK YOUR DEVICE. PLEASE ONLY HAVE ONE OF HIDING MODULE ENABLED

Shamiko module:
Open settings. Scroll down to Magisk section and enable Zygisk



Download Shamiko zip file to your device. If you downloaded zip file using pc then connect your device with pc using a data cable and transfer it to the device.

Download link: Releases · LSPosed/LSPosed.github.io

Go to Modules section



Click on Install from storage option



Select downloaded Shamiko zip file



Confirm the installation



After installation, simply click on the reboot button and your device will get rebooted



Open Magisk app, open settings. Scroll down to the Magisk sction click on Configure Denylist.



Choose the apps you want to hide from root detections




That’s it, you have successfully installed Shamiko on your device.

MagiskHide module:
MagiskHide does not need Zygisk to be enabled. Which mean you can hide Magisk root without enabling Zygisk.

This module reads DenyList as hidelist, but DOES NOT need to enable Zygisk and Enforced DenyList. You can use this module when Zygisk is enabled also but it is meanless.

NOTE: Isolated process and app zygote is not handle-able on Android 10 and lower. So Android 11+ is recommended!

Download MagiskHide zip file to your device. If you downloaded zip file using pc then connect your device with pc using a data cable and transfer it to the device.

Download link: Releases · HuskyDG/MagiskHide

Follow the excat steps from above how to install the zip file. I won't explain it here again

There are two way to modify denylist configuration without enabling Zygisk.

Configure Magisk apps
  • As Magisk app does not allow you to configure denylist when zygisk is off. You must toggle Zygisk on temporary (not reboot) to configurate denylist and toggle Zygisk off after done.

Configure by CLI
  • You can manage denylist by magisk --denylist.
  • To add pkg/process to denylist, use this command (example adding com.google.android.gms.unstable):
Code:
magisk --denylist add com.google.android.gms com.google.android.gms.unstable
  • To remove pkg/process to denylist, use this command (example removing com.google.android.gms.unstable):
Code:
magisk --denylist rm com.google.android.gms com.google.android.gms.unstable
  • Use magisk --denylist ls to view denylist configuration
Extras
Play Integrity Fix module:

Play Integrity Fix attempts to fix Play Integrity verdicts to get a certified device on bootloader unlocked devices. IT WILL NOT WORK ON EMULATORS!

Download the module here: Releases · chiteroman/PlayIntegrityFix

See Wiki before using Play Integrity Fix module: PlayIntegrityFix/wiki

Play Integrity Fix needs a working fingerprint. If you are too lazy to find a fingerprint, use playcurl module to automatically pull a working fingerprint for you

Download the playcurl.zip here: Releases · daboynb/PlayIntegrityNEXT

Instructions here: PlayIntegrityNEXT/Fp_Downloader.apk to use with play integrity by chiteroman at main · daboynb/PlayIntegrityNEXT

Check if your device pass both Basic Integrity or Device Integrity using TB checker app or similar



Hide My Applist Xposed module
Hide My Applist can work as an Xposed module to hide apps or reject app list requests, and provides some methods to test whether you have hidden your app list properly.

John wu preserves MagiskHide code and convert it into DenyList.
"MagiskHide is removed from Magisk" that mean John Wu don't see it as hiding purpose but for revoke changes made by Magisk
DenyList is basically MagiskHide but don't have ability to hiding sensitive props
DenyList cannot hide Zygisk, app in DenyList can thus detect Zygisk [Momo can detect Zygisk even it is in DenyList], use Shamiko module to hide Zygisk and Zygisk modules

Zygisk is not perfect for hiding.
I no longer recommend to use zygisk and Shamiko, read more here
Sorry for late reply, Shamiko actually worked better than MagiskHide for me. I was able to use government apps that I can't with MagiskHide. Otherwise I would have to unroot my phone completely if there is no way to bypass

@AndnixSH Sir if you have spare time can you describe a bit how magisk is detected even after changing the package name. Like is there any other way to detect application regardless of spoofing the package name. I tried searching everywhere but didn't find any.

Thank you sir! But i don't have xposed since it cased bootloops last time. Anyway looks like they are comparing the package size range in one of the api to detect magisk.
Don't give devs any hint
