Can't flash anything in TWRP - OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers

Hello everyone,
So today, I decided to flash the Adaptive Brightness Mod.
So what I did, I booted into newest TWRP, I flashed Adaptive Brightness Mod. Hitted reboot.
It didn't boot, so what I did is I flashed DP3 again. The system booted, so I thought "Yea **** that mod".
So I booted into TWRP again and tried to root again using magisk. I got again in a boot loop.
Does anyone have a solution? I really want to have root access.
Friendly regards,
Crewz

Wouldn't that be already backed up in the launcher data?

You shouldn't be that mad because of your homescreen set-up getting wiped! Yesterday I ****ed up encryption after trying to go back to Oxygen OS 5.1.11 from Havoc OS (which has August Security Patch), I couldn't boot the device up and TWRP and all my files were encrypted. After hours of trying and flashing, I had no other choice than formatting all my data. Including internal storage. And because I'm dumb, I didn't do a back up of my data for 3 month, so now I have 3 month old data on my phone.
So don't care about your homescreen set-up, as long as you have your pictures/music/data on the phone.
Btw, I'm not sure if I have a solution for you, but can you explain what exactly is the issue now? So you can boot up in the system without magisk installed but with it, you can't?

You can't flash Magisk 16.7 from TWRP. It causes issues more times then not. You need to flash TWRP 16.4 (1642) then let the Magisk manager update to 16.7.

Magisk 16.7 will often give you an error on boot which looks like a vendor mismatch message. I stick with 16.4.

the reason it fails only with root is because the mod he installed is still installed. It only turns on when you have root. remove mod and problem fixed. also, reflashing rom does not remove magisk mods. only uninstalling mod will fix this or a full format.
the mod lives in /data.

Do you have a USB drive with USB C connector?
It is a lifesaver

Why cant you flash 16.7 again. That's the only one I flash in my TWRP and I never have issues.

That happened the first time I tried to root. Had to flash the factory image and start over. Guess I could do that...but seems there has to be an easier way. I'm really curious why the method in that guide doesn't work for me.
Does flashfire work to install the OTA?

Download the full factory image. Open the flash all bat file with notepad and edit out the -w and save it. Then run it. That will flash the full factory image but leave apps and data in place.
Then you reroot it.

Thanks. When I re-root, do I need to do the whole patch boot image process again? Or should I reuse the patched_boot.img that I used when I rooted the first time?

Thank you. One last question: when I rooted, I used the snoke kernel and pointed to that .img file when patching the boot image (no reason, other than that's what everyone seemed to be using when root first happened). It sounds like this time, I should get the full factory image, extract, grab the boot.img from within that and patch THAT to be up to date. Correct?

Correct, you can use whatever boot IMG you want. Snoke may be updated to November... don't know...bit if it is and you like it use it.
Waiting for answers. I finally succeeded with rooting my xiaomi mi a2 lite, everything works perfect, I was so excited to install Xposed but then my phone started to lag AF. I uninstalled it and then the update show up in the notification bar, great but "couldn't install system update". Is it because of the root or TWRP?

why would you install boot.img from some site that may or may not be for our phone.
you could just reinstall stock boot or choose custom kernel from the forms here and get something that works like

Max's site is "High on Android" I followed his boot loader unlock and OP 6 root plan.....it was for the OP6....but I don't know
if the image is the same on 5.1.7 to 5.1.9 ? That's the only thing that my novice mind can thing the problem is?
I don't really want a custom kernel..I keep things stock, just root for a few apps adaway, TI backup...... But thanks!

Try a newer version of twrp if you can, via fastboot first and then flash (like you did before)

This phone does not work like the 5T or other phones without A/B partitions. There is a lot of bad advice out there. You're better off sticking with the guides posted here.

I don't really understand the a/b partitions? I know its for seamless updates, but don't really understand. Advice here is the best for sure.
Max Lee's method works but he had an outdated boot.img ...once I got the correct one for 5.1.9 all went well...twrp, magisk...
plus and I hate to say this..all I have now is a Macbook and he had directions for that...

This phone is really not that hard to mod, even with a MacBook. I've used Macs for years for rooting. It's just a matter of knowing how to use Terminal . . . that's it.
why are you flashing the boot img?...
Because the boot.img I originally use wasn't for 5.1.9..
I flashed the correct one and all good...

The reason we ask about boot.Img is b/c flashing magisk would have patched your boot.img. The only reason for flashing boot is for custom kernels.

Everyone else here know that the reason for the boot loop is b/c you flashed an older boot.img then the system was expecting. What we are trying to say is if you did not flash that boot.img in the first place, This problem never would have happened.

【HELP!】Installed a module in Magisk Download manager and now i'm f*****

Sup guys, i had this problem with the SafetyNet Check that always kept failing, done some tutorials here at the forum but none of them worked, so i gave up... yesterday i was searching for some modules at the download page in the Magisk Manager app and found a module that was supposed to correct SafatyNet problema, after that installation my Magisk don't want to open anymore, all my modules still installed but i can't open the app anymore, i rooted my cellphone without TWRP so i can't use it to manage the dependencies of the app... any suggestion?
obs.: I'm not using TWRP cuz i just keep having a problem at the installation, i'm runnig the last version of the Android Pie OS (Beta 3)
You could temporarily boot into TWRP via ADB and a PC and flash the uninstaller.

He can boot it through fastboot, adb push the uninstaller and flash it.*
But isn't the safetynet fix just a build.prop tweak?
He can technically adb pull the build.prop, fix it and put it back in. Or just take a working build.prop from a fellow OB3 user ( me included ) and push it into the system through adb.

I think the OP mentioned the problem they are having is from a Magisk module that is incompatible with the OP6. My recommendation, without TWRP on the phone, might be a Fastboot Rom to get your phone functional again.

restore stock boot.img. no root, no mods to load. fix it then reroot.
You don't need to restore. Follow this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/module-core-mode-bootloop-solver-modules-t3817366
It's called CoreOnlyMode4Magisk and it's flashed through TWRP. Magisk modules are systemless and this module will fix your problem.

You can use the modified boot.img with TWRP preinstalled from the OB3 thread:

Just reflash OB3 from system updater and that will get rid of root and also keep your data. Then start over.

Warning - Notchbarkiller Magisk Module!

Be careful. Yesterday I have installed this module on my pie rom and had bootloop when I tried to uninstall it. Nothing cant solve this issue, I had to flash whole pie rom.
That's why I bought this mobile with stock Android to be sure I'm not install something on it and the truth it's not worth to change something on it.
This mobile work pretty good without needing to root it.
No offense only my opinion.

I dont think so. you havent right, because of magisk. Did you ever try viper4android? Its really some kind of magic! this is only one case. no root = no lot of great stuff. If anything bad happened, you have ever last option = flash vanilla rom
For anyone who gets bootloops caused by a magisk module: Just flash back stock kernel! Then Magisk is gone and the module doesn´t work too. You can delete the module from your magisk manager and root again - voilla!

Hmm, as told above, then your only option is a backup with twrp. If you can't decrypt data with twrp (after you installed it - not booting) you can try to boot to slot b - that sometimes help. Just select under reboot in twrp or type "fastboot set_active b"...

There is no wipe required, I just got caught in the loop as well.
Two things you need:
-TRWP installed
-Uninmod installed (magisk module remover)
1. If you are stuck in the loop, boot into fastboot,
- connect your pc and run ADB & fastboot cmd, run the command fastboot boot recovery.img(or your TRWP image) and run TRWP
2. Download Uninmod zip, transfer to phone. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72542167&postcount=242&nocache=1
- Use TWRP to install Uninmod,
- remove the Notchkiller mod

3. find this file overlays.list and delete it from /data/resource-cache/overlays.list https://github.com/Magisk-Modules-Repo/NotchBarKiller/issues/3
- credits to MatChung
Reboot and there was like a minute of delay on same boot screen, but then it should boot fine.
If you are not stuck in the loop but just installed the module:
-remove the module in magisk
-find the file and delete it.
TLDR: remove the Notchbarkiller mod and remove overlays.list file. Reboot!
Hope it works. It did for me. Poco F1
I flashed this madule last night and found that it break calls. Could not make and receive phone calls. Huawei P20 Pro with EMUI 8.1 running.

I know...
Strange, I was using the January update when I first installed it and everything worked fine, no issues what so ever. I haven't tried it on the latest update but xiaomi's update might have messed the module. There's no reason what so ever to blame the module for not working on the latest update as they tend to break things. Just report back to the developer with something helpful like a logcat instead of making useless threads.
As of the bootloop there's no reason to wipe your data or reflash the ROM unless you have to. Just boot up in twrp and flash the magisk uninstaller which might be in the Magisk Manager folder or just search it online. Another way to do it is just to mount magisk in twrp and delete the module.

UPDATE: This thread is a false alarm as I managed to install the module on the March update and the only crash I get is from google play services with no bootloop and everything working. Maybe the OP has another phone and except that a module that is on the Mi A2 Lite thread should work on any phone or he's done something wrong. I will attach some screenshots to confirm that the module is indeed working and OP's post is a false alarm for stock A2 Lite ROMs (No custom ROM and not other phones)
NOTE: As you can see in the YouTube screenshot there's no black back on the left side of the screen as it should be without the module installed

T-Mobile Root

Has anyone successfully rooted their T-Mobile variant as of yet? My bootloader unlock token should be available in a couple hours, and I'm trying to decide which is the best method. I was thinking of going with patching the boot.img myself, however I can't find a full ROM zip of 9.5.5 (which I'm on now). The next choice is obviously TWRP...I'm just hesitant because of the encryption issue. Does anyone know if formatting data and then moving files back to my internal storage will allow me to decrypt, just as it did on the 6T? Thanks in advance

Mine should be here today. And I'll tell you my plan.
I'm going to try to flash twrp and try to get the stock img files from the unmodified slot. Then I will feel safe. To do anything
Well, I did it! I unlocked my bootloader and flashed TWRP! I then formatted data, and transferred the TWRP installer and Magisk to internal storage. I flashed both, and rebooted to recovery. Both files were still there, and did not get encrypted! Now, my wifi and sound seem to be broken, but I did see something about that somewhere else...now to find it, hah!

I still got an HR left then.
I'll make sure to post all img files I extract if no one else does.
It did! About 10 minutes later than the time I applied for it Now, I rebooted to recovery again, and now I don't see my files anymore I guess formatting data DIDN'T fix decryption. Now to get my sound and wifi working again...
Figured I'd try formatting data a second time. It's worked for me on the 6T in the past
I think your going to need the boot.img to restore WiFi and sound.

I flashed the img, and then installer while in TWRP, thinking I needed to do that to keep TWRP (which Iater learned I didn't as I had flashed TWRP, not just booted it).

Im going to get my unlock bin hopefully this afternoon. What is the best way to do that before messing with anything?
Try flashing this patched 9.5.5 boot.img . The boot image has to match the same version your currently on. From your screen shots it looks like your on 9.5.5 so it might be your best bet in restoring your Sound and Wifi.
