Hi,
Can someone please tell me what is the latest version of OTA update available for Pixel 2016 on Android Oreo 8.1.0 and how to download/Install that? I just flashed 8.1.0 (OPM4.171019.021.P1, Jul 2018) on it from Android Factory Images site. I don't want to Install Android Pie on it yet as xposed framework can not be installed on Pie yet. Please advise, thanks.
You can download the entire factory image from the official site, or download the ota from the other official page.
The last one 8.1 is the one from july. If you need to flash it after wipe, go with the factory image, if you just need to update from an older one, go with the ota.
Anyway, a sort of "unofficial" Xposed for Pie is available since january, called EdXposed.
In this thread there is the list of working and not-working modules, and it's always up to date.
I already tested it, and it's working pretty good. Also, EdXposed doesn't trip safetynet, while the classic Xposed does.
Just flash in magisk the 2 zips, install the manager and reboot.

Thanks, Trento.
Couple of quick points to confirm, so no other official update of Oreo on Pixel (Sailfish) came out since July 2018? and it will have to be updated to Pie to get any more security patches/updates after July 2018?
if so, it is kinda strange if no monthly or quarterly update for a last major Android release from Google on their own devices for people who for some reasons still want to stick with that? I know I was getting updates on my good old Nexus 5 on Stock Marshmallow long after release of Android Nugget 7.0.
Also, Xposed Framework installed as a module via Magisk also trips SafetyNet check in Android?
Thanks again!
Yes, that's how google makes updates, since a newer version of android came out all the security stuff and updates are only in the newer version. No more Oreo updates.
No matter how you flash the original Xposed , system or systemless it will always trip saferynet.
Things are different with EdXposed, safetynet passes so you can use all your apps with no problems at all

I will give a try to EdXposed on Pie today and see how it goes. I just can't go without a few Xposed modules installed, i.e. GravityBox, xRenamer, and couple of others, Thanks for the info.

So I am running full stock on my Pixel that is updated to Oreo. I've read through the latest thread (HERE) on the new beta for Magisk that supports Pixel devices and wanted to know what steps folks may have followed to get this installed and working. The regular thread details some steps but it appears that those are driven towards other devices and doesn't account for the difference of Pixel devices.
Thx!
loaded up fine on my pixel!

Are you able to share the steps you took to get it loaded? It would seem that it isn't the same as other or previous version since those didn't apply to pixel devices.
Thx
Do modules work?
There's an offical Magisk Pixel (XL) Thread
I'm running it on Pure Nexus July build now. I ended up having to re-flash (dirty) the ROM to clear up the old goodwin_c Magisk install.
Seems okay for now. I have a couple of modules loaded but haven't had the opportunity to test whether they actually work. AirAudio at least doesn't fire a warning that the module isn't found.
There is a new update today. Mods were broken. Supposedly fixed now.

Steps on 8.0 were as follows
make sure youre on stock boot
boot into system once with stock boot
then boot into android 0 twrp
flash magisk
reboot to system
finished
Has anyone been able to get this snapchat bypass version of edxposed working on their essential phone? I am currently on liquidremix rom (pie 9.0), I have tried both version 1.0.3 and 1.0.4, sandhook and yahfa, as well as the bootloop fix version, and all of them gets me stuck at boot animation.
https://github.com/Juxstin/EdXposed-SnapChat-Bypass/releases
Any help is appreciated. I really want to get snapchat working on my phone with edxposed.
Snapchat worked fine with edxposed (I think it was yahfa) on Pie for me, no "bypass" was needed. And this still holds true on Android 10 with Magisk + Edxposed.
Is the latest edxposed? You may need a custom magisk to start
The following is from the developer
---From Google Translation---
Notes: Since the above PR is not merged yet, to make those sepolicies present you have to use this build along with the customized Magisk build hosted here: https://github.com/solohsu/magisk_files.

not for me and quite a few other people in other threads. I get banned within a day or 2 with edxposed
I'm quite out of touch. My OG Pixel was on Android 9, rooted with working Android Pay but yesterday it rebooted and now is unrooted on Android 10. TWRP sems to be gone too. Magisk manager says Magisk is not installed. My phone can't make contactless payments either.
I want a rooted phone
I want Google Pay
I don't care about being on the latest version
What are my best options?
Thanks

Did Android 10 get beamed into your phone from an invading alien force?:silly:
You can use the last factory from 12/5/19. You can use the latest Pixel Dust which is staying up-to-date with latest kernels and security patches and works great! Also Evolution X, though the latest version may have serious bugs - still trying to figure it out.
fastboot boot .\twrp-3.3.0-0-sailfish.img for TWRP, then install zip.
Install latest Magisk, then for Google Pay to work, see: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=81356303&postcount=61
There is an install guide on the Marlin/XL forum that I've always followed, though using Sailfish files rather than Marlin.
Or wait a couple of months for them to tweak it a bit?
I only run Magik and not Xposed, not that it matters!
I'm not rooted, but I've been running R since the first public ßeta.
It's been the smallest update so far in a long time for Android. Very little has changed, compared to previous major version upgrades.
If you can root (and from what I read i think you can with Magisk), make a full backup and try it.

I don't really know what you'd be waiting for. I don't think a non-rooted person would notice much in terms of drawbacks. Magisk modules level, there were some issues... but I think most things are getting worked out. Xposed technically works, but more than half of my modules broke in a way that probably won't be fixed for a while. I still feel like I'm at a net-negative in terms of phone features. A11 brought little and broke a lot of my QoL tweaks that used Xposed.
I make no claims about SafetyNet as I use no apps that even check it.
I think A11 has been released formally by google and most of issues have been fixed or addressed.
I used magisk and edxposed. That's not a problem for me(I used Edxposed for fingerface only). Regarding of safetynet issue, it also has solution to make it pass by magisk modules and kernel side.
Until now, I'm happy with A11.
I ended up doing a full wipe and upgrade to Android 11 Oct 2020.
I have Magisk running with the SQL Lite mods for Google Pay and obviously I have root so I'm basically back where I was on Android 10.
I hadn't use Xposed yet and I don't know if I will yet. I was using Viper Audio mod but I don't know if I noticed a major difference, mostly I just stream bluetooth in my SUV.
So far, so good.
I tried it and reverted back to 10 - as mentioned didn't gain much but broke a lot. Even in stock form I can't get videos to load a subtitle file because of storage permissions and what not. A tweaked out install of 10 is faaaar nicer imo so that's what I'm running, probably until a new phone comes out sadly.

can i ask how you upgraded to A11? Im on 10 rooted with magisk and keep hearing mixed messages on upgrading. And is it necessary to wipe? I really don't want to.
A11 is not too bad, but as others have said little things here and there that break. Like for me I listen to SiriusXM app on mobile and for some odd reason it will stop playing all of a sudden and close. It's like the aggressive memory management kills the app for no reason. I even have battery optimization turned off and still does it.
Thinking about moving back to A10 from August, not really much I have to have to stick with latest A11 updates.

Flash the factory image, but remove the -w in the flash-all file. Then in Magisk Manager switch tot he beta channel and patch the boot image with that. Flash it and you're done.

Ok so I shouldn't install it via the ota? I keep getting the pop up to update every day.
Does using Magisk to dl / install the OTA, then patch the non-live and newly flashed partition, then finally rebooting not work?
When I was rooted that was always the easiest way.
And based upon the post 2 above this one, Magisk now supports A11 without ẞeta, right?

Hi guys,
Sorry if I'm missing something very obvious but I can't install the latest update on my rooted oneplus 9
I have a LE2110 model, currently on 11.2.10.10..LE25BA. I'm rooted with magisk, confirmed with root checker.
I've downloaded the C44 update, went to updater, install from storage, then to magisk where I disable all my modules and select install to inactive slot, 'lets go' and 'reboot'.
The phone reboots and displays a message saying that the update did not install try again or try reapir.
Anyone know if I'm missing anything in the process? Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers everyone
Edit: Thanks for all the responses..using canary magisk instead has worked.

You have to fastboot flash the stock untouched boot.img back. Magisk patched the boot partition to root. Therefore the partition is modified. Ota fails. Try uninstall Magisk and see if it restores stock boot image. Or get full build run payload him through payload extractor and nab boot.img there.
Thanks, so I basically need to unroot, restore to stock, update to C44, then reroot from scratch again?

Wrong . I'm on stock A12 and it's rooted with 23.0. passing safety net,modules,Magisk hide all working
in order for magisk to work on A12 and booting to an inactive slot it has to be the alpha build ill post it but its also in the root guide for oos on 12 the table shows the only one that works on 12 is this build, same thing happened to me

yes it is true but you did the manual way. every one else wants the automatic way which requires canary or alpha.

Everyone does want bleeding edge.
Thanks for all the info guys, sounds like a bit more reading needed on my end but all of the above should steer me in the right direction.
I was able to jump from rooted 11.10.10 to c44 using canary magisk.
Downloaded the 4gb c44 from oxygen updater, then local udpate and DONT reboot then install magisk in inactive slot.
Ok, this has worked, original posted uodated, thanks everyone.
One last question...and slightly unrelated. I can't find my list of hidden apps in magisk. I've hidden the app in settings and have the magisk hideprops config module enabled. My banking app is telling me I'm rooted...I'm pretty sure I added it to a list in the past. None of the options at the bottom bring me to it either..anyone have the same issue?

the alpha build doesnt have magisk hide built in. and he literally just posted the updated v24 stable build an hour ago and is supposed to fully support android 12. but he also announced that he removed Magisk hide all together and is no longer going to support it.
so its still early, not sure how to fix your problem , those are the only two builds i see for 12

i would try and delete the version you have and install stable 23, dont repack the boot.img or anything only replace the app, that wont hurt you

No dice, v23 will install and the option is available in settings, I just still can't find where I add an app to the hidden list. Bank apps not loading.
Magisk is dropping support for hiding root access from apps
Magisk, the popular Android rooting tool, will continue to be developed by topjohnwu, but without its root hiding feature called MagiskHide.
www.xda-developers.com
Have you tried using USNF? https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/magisk-module-universal-safetynet-fix-1-1-0.4217823/
I'm also having troubles updating to c44 with magisk v23, but don't wanna lose the magisk hide option. While looking for alternatives, I came across this the USNF solution in here :
How to pass SafetyNet on Android after rooting or installing a custom ROM
It is possible to pass SafetyNet, even after extensive modding like rooting or installing a custom ROM. Check out how to do that here!
www.xda-developers.com
Didn't try it myself yet...
I can confirm USNF works for me, and I have some very strict apps detecting root access, DenyList hides the root from the apps, but it doesn't try to fix safetynet, with USNF I have no more problems even in apps that didn't work with DenyList only (remember to turn on Zygisk and Enforced DenyList).
If you are using permissive mode on SELinux you will also need SELinux switch to get back to enforcing mode for some apps, but that is an edge case
EDIT: It seems if you are on custom ROM MagiskHidePropsConf might help, not sure if USNF is enough but I can't test it
