well, here's a new wrinkle. I had been trying all week to install Magisk the way they say to in the official instructions here: https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html#patching-images This was really just obsession, I don't have a huge need for root anymore. But no matter what I did, root didn't take and every time I went back to the app it didn't indicate I had root. I was honestly about to give up, but I hate to be defeated by computers. Lol. So I tried on last hail mary. I rebooted into recovery and without reinstalling anything else, I retried my old method of flashing Mag

Might be a long shot, especially given how long it's been since you posted this, but do you have a copy of the perist.img you flashed? I could need one to flash on mine as well, even if it means loosing my IMEI ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
