I rooted my ZenFone 4 max and installed Xposed. Ended up installing an Xposed module that caused the system UI to crash on boot. So I did a factory reset from TWRP, which fixed the UI. But now most of my apps crash and force-close. Anyone have an idea how to fix this? Would flashing stock firmware work? And if so, where can I get the stock recovery? (I already downloaded the stock firmware from Asus website)

Whats your Android version. Try flashing gapps. Hope it will work. Use the stock gapps package.
7.1.1
Android 7.1.1. I tried gapps, it didn't help, and most of the gapps crash as well
solved(ish)

I got a notification for an ota system update, figured I didn't have much to loose, so I went ahead and told it to install. It started installing, then booted to recovery (twrp) and then crashed, and wouldn't load the operating system, would only boot to twrp. I restored a (bad [backed up after problems started]) twrp backup I had, and now everything seems to be working just fine. So the ota update must have fixed whatever was causing app crashes. At this point with everything I have done, the code probably looks like Frankenstein's monster, but everything works, so I'm happy and am going to leave everything the way it is. Hope this might help if someone is having similar problems!

Ohh.. flash to stock os again
Go to twrp> wipe > wipe everything (system,data,cache ,dal cache)
Back to install select the stock os
Install it..
( Is the installation fail. Go to fastboot and flash the stock recovery and flash the stock os through it)
Then reboot.
Install magisk manager
After opening it it will pop up "install "
Hit install and locate the stock os "boot.img" file.
It will download and flash some files.and will create a patched-boot.img file in your internal storage
After that copy it to your pc and flash it
( Fastboot flash boot "file.img" )
Reboot!!!
Install Xposed from magisk module. Its the stable one.

Hi guys, is there any way to "uninstall" a pre-installed system update?? Currently at OS 5.1.11 but idk what happened suddenly it says "system update (OS 9.0.2) is installed, please reboot". So the last thing I want is to reboot, since I WILL lose my root, and afraid that my TWRP version not compatible for Android P. THANKS!
QUESTIONS
1) IF I were to reboot into recovery, make a backup and install that backup, will that help? Will the update be installed once I reboot into recovery or not? IF I am not mistaken, the updates are only applied when you reboot into the system., but I'm not sure now.
2) I already have a backup of my system but that is months ago. Would I be able to make a complete backup of today's sytem without applying the installed update?
3) Any other way to remove the pre-installed system update besides rebooting into recovery to do a factory reset and restore system settings?
4) Do I need to reinstall TWRP and MAGISK before applying the backup/system restore?
Thanks in advanced!

If you are rooted then update will not get install; you need to flash full package through twrp
If you dont want to update to pie then flash oos5.1.11 full package through twrp use bluspark twrp
Suggestion: update to pie build

Hi, thanks for the reply.
I think the update WILL be installed after a reboot. And I don't want that, which is why I am avoiding any sort of reboot atm.

Update WILL NOT installed if you have pached boot image
You can flash oos 5.1.11 or 9.0.2 directly through twrp but use only blu_spark twrp
If you have installed magisk then go to magisk manager select uninstall then restore image after select install magisk second slot after ota
As the title says I updated to 9.5.9 and I installed magisk to ota slot and then I got a bootloop.... I fixed it by using twrp option to fix bootloop but that removed root, everything I do now sends it into a bootloop, please tell me there is a way to reroot this without wiping my data
https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...-to-uninstall-magisk-module-t3940369#poststop
Just had the same issue an hour ago. Do this then re-root your phone again. Easy. Then re-install magisk modules.

Had the same issue.
Same here. I just reflashed TWRP (flash boot command), flashed the TWRP installer zip, rebooted recovery and then flashed Magisk. That solved it.
By the way, theres a new TWRP out for the 7 Pro.
I got the same problem but my internal storage is encrypted (it shows 0kb). TWRP is not asking for PIN to unencrypt the partition. What can I do now?
Do we have a custom boot image for 9.5.9? I'm looking to root and want to find the best method which will continue to allow future updates (even if I need to flash manually)

Your best bet is to use the oxygen updater app, download 9.5.9 and then copy it to a PC then use boot.img extract thingy and then use magisk to patch it and then use fastboot to to root it
Dears,
I have a OnePlus 6 unlocked and rooted with magisk and TRWP.
Currently I'm running stock firmware: oxygenos 10.3.
I got a message from system to update to 10.3.1.
Last time (when I have to update to 10.3) I tried to update in every way but without success and at the end I had to format everything and I lost my data.
So here is my question: which is the correct procedure to update software?
Thanks!
Look in TWRP and Root for OnePlus 6 on Oxygen OS 10 Stable/Beta thread
So you need to download latest Oxygen zip which is 042 buil if I'm not wrong...put it on your phone if you already didn't done that...then reboot to TWRP...and here starts the procedure....I HIGHLY RECCOMEND TO DO A WIPE WITHOUT FORMATTING INTERNAL STORAGE ONLY DATA...FOR AVOIDING ISSUES...but you can go without it...so here we start
Boot into twrp
Flash oxygen os zip(latest)
Flash twrp
Reboot to twrp(if it says no os installed just ignore it and swipe reboot anyway)
Flash magisk
and your done...thats it...nothing could go wrong.... I'm always doing it this way....

For me, the phone downloaded the whole package instead of just the little OTA. I let it install it, bit did not let it restart it. Then I went to magisk modules and installed "twrp-keep". Then in magisk manager I had it install magisk on the other slot. Then I restarted the phone. Everything worked great.

Try this method... im also done my update like this!
my way of doing it
Here's what i did and it didn't took me long at all i'm a newbie
I unroot my phone via magisk
install os 10.3.1 then flash twrp and root my phone again.
Dears,
Thanks for the replay.
I forgot that I was without TWRP.
What I did, and it worked, is:
- uninstall magisk manager by magisk
- install full update
- reboot
- flash by fastboot boot.img patched by magisk.
Thanks again
Hello community!
Hope you are doing awesome, I am trying to install specifically the update from the 18 th of May (latest while doing this post) so when I downloaded it I go to TWRP and this is what I done
1)Place my pin and decrypt the device
2) Perform a format Data > Yes
3) Wipe cache, dalvik, internal
4) Restart to Recovery
5) Install the update all seems to be fine and reboot to system
The Phone boots to Poco screen and then vibrates and then gets me back to TWRP. I manage one time to get it worked and got in the config page from the customer rom a UI unresponsive message and is unable to connect to my Wifi so I have to use the Data 4G to make it work and I rolledback to April version of Arrow OS that seems to be the one working now.
The Miui stock that I am using to install the customer Rom is surya_global_images_V12.0.8.0.QJGMIXM_20210222.0000.00_10.0_global
Could you please provide some hints and tips what I am doing wrong so I can get this updates up to date? Because I love the Arrow OS Rom and I want to keep the firmware updated correclty on my side.
Thank you!
I am very interested, too. Got the same problem. After latest OTA-Update I'm stuck in a recovery bootloop as well.
Sadly even the attempt to flash back an older version or a MIUI Stock rom is failing for me now. Always recovery bootloop, even after a successfull flash without errors (and format data of course) .
Is the stock rom or an older arrow os version working for you, after the 18th May update?
@koelbche I was able to make a stock based on the stock fw shown on my post. then I installed old version of arrow OS April update and it was restarting bootloop.
I had to delete data, factory reset and select de wipe options so super clean flash and manage to boot it up.
I am waiting for any updates from others that manage to install the updates because I was not able to do it.
Flash ArrowOS custom recovery for ota update to work. After update you can flash recovery back to TWRP for root and backup, your choice.
I was able to make it worked in another post.
All I have to do was to update the version of the stock with Oss vendor (I think) and then all worked like a charm!.
Thanks for the replies though
I downloaded and installed a custom ROM of google pixel experience and after a couple of days I got a notification that there is a new update available when I am done downloading it and tapped to install my phone is on the custom recovery
can I install the downloaded software from internal storage via the recovery menu without formating my phone and wiping all data
like installing any official ROM
my phone is redmi note 8 pro and the installed firmware is: https://download.pixelexperience.org/begonia/
version:16/11/2022
I will really appreciate any help

Yes, you can flash the update via recovery without wiping the device. This is called a "dirty flash" and can only be done if you are installing an update of the ROM that you currently have installed. For example, if you have a LineageOS ROM installed and a LineageOS update is available, you could install that update without wiping the device. But, if you have Pixel Experience installed, you can not flash LineageOS without wiping the device. In your case, as long as the update is a Pixel Experience update, you can flash without wiping.

Thank you very much, I will be thankful if you could tell my in some detail how to do it
I thought it might be by choosing the "install" options from recovery, then install the file from internal storage. Is it right? Or should be done someway else?

Obviously. How else did you plan on installing it via recovery? I am not aware of a different way to flash a ROM via recovery.
