Redwood: Magisk Modules Update - August 17, 2025

This comprehensive update details the “Redwood” Magisk Modules project as of August 17, 2025. We at Magisk Modules are dedicated to providing our users with the most advanced, stable, and feature-rich modules available. This Redwood update brings substantial improvements across various modules, addressing user feedback, enhancing performance, and introducing exciting new capabilities. We are committed to transparency and providing you with all the necessary information to leverage these updates effectively.

Core Module Enhancements in the Redwood Update

Our core modules have received significant attention in this update, focusing on stability, compatibility, and overall user experience. We have meticulously analyzed user reports and implemented numerous optimizations to address common issues.

Systemless Interface Improvements

The systemless interface, the backbone of Magisk, has undergone crucial improvements. We have optimized the way modules interact with the system partition, reducing the risk of boot loops and other system instability issues.

Enhanced Module Activation Logic

The activation logic for modules has been rewritten for increased reliability. Modules are now activated in a more controlled and predictable manner, minimizing potential conflicts between different modules. The activation sequence is now dynamic, capable of adapting to system conditions at boot time, such as low memory or CPU load.

Improved Compatibility with Android Updates

We’ve invested considerable effort into ensuring our modules maintain compatibility across various Android versions and custom ROMs. The Redwood update includes compatibility patches for the latest Android security updates, as well as support for newly released custom ROMs. We constantly monitor the Android development landscape and proactively address potential compatibility issues before they affect our users.

Module Manager Redesign

The Module Manager has been completely redesigned to improve usability and functionality. The new interface is more intuitive, making it easier to browse, install, and manage your modules.

Advanced Search and Filtering

The new Module Manager features advanced search and filtering capabilities, allowing you to quickly find the modules you need. You can filter modules by category, author, compatibility, and more. The search function now supports fuzzy matching, allowing you to find modules even if you misspell the name.

Automated Update Notifications

You’ll now receive automated notifications when new versions of your installed modules become available. This ensures you’re always running the latest and greatest versions of your modules, with all the latest features and bug fixes. The update process is now seamless and can be performed directly from the Module Manager.

Key Module Updates: Detailed Analysis

The Redwood update includes specific updates to several of our most popular modules. Here’s a detailed breakdown of the changes.

System Tweaks Module: Redwood Edition

The System Tweaks module has been revamped with a new “Redwood Edition,” offering a wider range of performance optimizations and customization options.

CPU Governor Tuning

We’ve introduced new CPU governor profiles designed to optimize performance and battery life. These profiles are based on extensive testing and analysis of different workloads. Users can choose from several profiles, including “Performance,” “Battery Saver,” and “Balanced.” The governor can also be configured individually based on application behavior.

Memory Management Optimization

The Redwood Edition includes enhanced memory management optimizations, reducing memory fragmentation and improving overall system responsiveness. We’ve fine-tuned the lowmemorykiller settings to aggressively reclaim unused memory without negatively impacting background processes. We now also feature ZRAM and SWAP configuration, letting you set the parameters and size for either depending on your devices capabilities.

Network Optimization

The Redwood Edition also features network optimizations designed to improve network speed and reduce latency. These optimizations include TCP tweaks, DNS caching improvements, and more. Users can select from different network profiles, depending on their network conditions and usage patterns.

MagiskHide Enhanced

MagiskHide, our systemless root hiding solution, has been further enhanced to improve its effectiveness and reliability. We stay ahead of the evolving detection methods employed by apps and services.

Advanced Detection Evasion Techniques

We’ve implemented new detection evasion techniques to bypass the latest root detection mechanisms. These techniques are constantly updated to ensure MagiskHide remains effective. We utilize several techniques including process hiding, file masking, and memory modification to hide the presence of root.

Selective Hiding for Individual Apps

MagiskHide now allows you to selectively hide root from individual apps, giving you even more control over your root visibility. This feature is useful for apps that are particularly sensitive to root detection. You can easily toggle root visibility for each app from the Module Manager.

Improved Stability and Performance

We’ve improved the stability and performance of MagiskHide, reducing the risk of crashes and other issues. The hiding process is now more efficient and has minimal impact on system performance.

Audio Modification Module: Redwood Acoustics

The Audio Modification module has been updated with a new “Redwood Acoustics” version, featuring a redesigned audio processing engine and a wider range of audio effects.

Advanced Audio Processing Engine

The Redwood Acoustics version features a completely redesigned audio processing engine, delivering superior sound quality and improved performance. The new engine supports a wider range of audio formats and codecs.

Customizable Audio Effects

We’ve added a wider range of customizable audio effects, allowing you to tailor the sound to your preferences. These effects include equalizer, bass boost, virtualizer, reverb, and more. Users can create and save custom audio profiles for different scenarios.

High-Resolution Audio Support

The Redwood Acoustics version now supports high-resolution audio playback, allowing you to enjoy your music in its full glory. We now include support for 24-bit/192kHz audio playback, allowing you to enjoy the highest quality music possible.
