Install Magisk On Official Android Emulator

===========================================

Works on Android API 22 - 30,S (except 28)

0. Grab Magisk.zip (or Magisk.apk) and put in this directory. If you're using ARM system image, replace `busybox` with `busybox_arm`.

1. For patching the ramdisk with magisk, your AVD must be already created

2. Make sure you backup the untouched `ramdisk.img` from `/system-images//*/ramdisk.img`. You will need it everytime you want to patch ramdisk with magisk (for the first time and also for subsequent magisk updates).

3. Clone this repository and copy the original `ramdisk.img` into the clone's folder.

4. Start the newly created AVD.

5. There are three ways to patch ramdisk:

  * Execute `patch.sh` or `patch.bat` to install Magisk (pre-downloaded) on the ramdisk.img 

  * Alternatively, you can execute `patch.sh canary` or `patch.bat canary` to install latest canary Magisk on the ramdisk.img. This requires AVD internet connectivity towards github.

***Note: If choosing to use 'patch.sh', you might need to run `dos2unix patch.sh` first so that the script has propper line ending. This is needed when using for example github for desktop, which changes line ending to CRLF instead of LF***

  * If you prefer patching by MagiskManager, execute `patch.sh manager` or `patch.bat manager`, it will create a fake `boot.img` on internal storage. We then launch MagiskManager and click `Install` and select `boot.img` to patch it. When finished,

execute `patch.sh pull` or `patch.bat pull` to get the patched ramdisk.img. This method is mainly for Released version of Magisk.

6. When finished, copy the patched `ramdisk.img` back to AVD directory.

7. Power off and restart (cold start) the emulator

8. Recommended: update magisk manager

9. Enjoy Magisk :)

Install Magisk On Android x86 Project on VirtualBox
