Switch stopped working after installing permission manager

I installed Magisk, a permission manager for rooted Android devices, and I can no longer switch to the EVPlay UI.  No amount of resetting works.

 

I assume that something related to the UI switching requires elevated permissions, and Magisk blocks su access for an app until the root user explicitly allows it.  Since I can't get to the EVPlay UI, I can't grant the permissions that it needs.  I also don't know exactly what permissions it needs even if I could grant them, but I guess root would be fine.

 

Does anyone have any ideas for how I can regain use of the device?

I'm also facing the same issue here. I'm no longer able to access the EVPlay UI after installing Magisk. I thought this would allow me to access my banking app... now, I'm totally locked out..

@duongau Resolved via email. 

Just a reminder that EV Play is a rooted device, and so 1) Don't recommend installing sensitive apps like banking, password managers, etc. and 2) any other root bypass apps like Magisk will likely conflict and cause issues.
