Hi All, I've a oneplus 7 with twrp and root and I'm facing an issue during the update of oxygen os done by twrp. Basically, after any update the phone doesn't boot and goes in bootloop to recovery (stock if I didn't installed twrp after the update or twrp if I did it). In order to correctly boot the device I had any time to format and wipe all the data.
I never had this kind of issue with previous oneplus in same configuration (5t and 6t). Is there any way to update oxygen os from twrp without having to wipe all the data any time?
You should have a look at the TWRP thread.
OP by Mauronofrio says:
"If you want you can also update a stock rom from phone settings with local upgrade:
- Update the Rom WITHOUT REBOOT;
- Open Magisk Manager;
- Menu/modules/+ button/select the twrp installer.zip and flash it;
- Always in Magisk Manager, click on Install/Install/Direct Install;
- Again in Magisk Manager, click on Install/Install/Inactive Slot;
- Reboot."
Thats the way I do it, also in the past with my old OP6.
Hello, So i tried to install GPS joystick privacy mode app as a system app first thru titanium backup then ..., i rebooted and now im on boot loop, what do i do?
Any help is appreciated, Thanks

Hold Power + vol up + vol down for several seconds should put you in bootloader. Or alteranately, Power+vol down for several seconds should send you to TWRP if you have it installed. From there, I'm thinking you may need to flash the stock ROM again, since you were messing with the system partition, and the phone is not booting now. Either flash stock ROM in TWRP, or use the fastboot stock ROM.
I didn't have twrp installed and i still dont, i patched the boot image with magisk and all i have is root cause i cant seem to keep TWRP installed after 9.5.3, im currently on 10.3.0

You should be able to fastboot flash stock boot.img from the fastboot ROMs to get the phone running again: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-7-pro/how-to/rom-stock-fastboot-roms-oneplus-7-pro-t3931424
This will unroot the phone. But you should be able to easily root again by the method you did originally.
What is the problem you are having with installing TWRP? You haven't specifically described how you tried to install. I've had no issues using the TWRP installer zip, after multiple updates.
You need to re flash stock so, boot lastest twrp (fastboot boot twrp.img) and flash lastest stock rom.
And if you need an app as system use magisk module App Systemizer (you also need busybox module and Termux app from playstore) this is the only way (that I known) to convert user apps to system

tried that first part too, cant get into twrp and that makes sense now, i installed busy box but never opened the app to install to system/xbin
here's how ive done my part so far.. ever since i bricked my device last feb 24 , rendering it totally unresponsive.. that not even vol up & power button dont work
1. had to use msm tool just to boot my device. successfully boot my device to 9.5.3
2. device seemed to have a locked bootloader again so i un.lock it again. downloaded a patched 9.5.3 boot.img and flashed it via fastboot
3. successful root confirmed..
4. downloaded twrp 3.3.1-75 unofficial installer.. about 17.5mb. flashed it thru magisk as a module.. then install magisk ( as recommended) then reboot.
5. after a reboot.. and setting it up to my liking,, i reboot to twrp to flash the latest 10.3.1 stable rom..
6. flash twrp installer again.
7. hit reboot then choose Recovery . phone reboot to recovery again
8. flash magisk.zip which i downloaded earlier. then reboot.
done
updated to 10.3.1 with magisk & twrp intact..
btw.. i really dont know how to force my phone to reboot to twrp via PC ADB fastboot command.. easiest way for me to install TWRP is by flashing the TWRP INSTALLER as magisk module

That is because that is NOT the correct way to install TWRP img. You need to fastboot boot TWRP, then once in TWRP flash the TWRP installer zip, as I already mentioned.
This is described in the TWRP dev's thread (and you will see no mention of fastboot flash TWRP).
https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...nt/recovery-unofficial-twrp-recovery-t3931322
Also make sure you use a current version of TWRP (latest is unofficial -76) which you can get from the above link.

After i tried to install busybox trough magisk manager on my 7 pro i can't boot in to the system anymore, I already deleted all magisk modules trough recovery and it is still booting directly in to fastboot mode.
Is there any way to boot in to the system again without flashing stock rom ?
Twrp is still accessible.
Im running Android 10, the newest magisk and the newest twrp.
Edit: found the solution, i Just used the fix Recovery bootloop option in twrp and it worked all fine but i needed to flash magisk again

You will lose ROOT
Hello.
After the 12.1.3 update, with the new Magisk app the instructions state that we should extract the recovery.img patch it and flash it to the device in fastboot. After a restart the phone should be rooted. This is however not the case. When I try to flash OrangeFox, and flash the avb patcher from Mauronofrio, OrangeFox remains after a reboot and I can enter it any time holding the volume up at boot. So in theory the recovery partition should not be overwritten to default on restart.
But when I flash over a default-magisk-flashed image, the phone remains un-rooted.
Am I doing something wrong or is this an on-going issue?

That is only for the Magisk app, not to root the phone. Rooting the phone is a totally different procedure.
Number ome was the last zip with I root my phone with simple flash and number 2 is the new one.
Look inside.
Here the how to from magisk for a customer recovery.
Download the Magisk APK
Rename the .apk file extension to .zip, for example: Magisk-v22.0.apk → Magisk-v22.0.zip. If you have trouble renaming the file extension (like on Windows), use a file manager on Android or the one included in TWRP to rename the file.
Flash the zip just like any other ordinary flashable zip.
Check whether the Magisk app is installed. If it isn’t installed automatically, manually install the APK.

Did you solve it? After I've updated to V12.1.2.0.RFDMIXM Android 11, I can't install Magisk through TWRP, even with the latest canary release
Also tried installing through patching boot.img and recovery.img, with magisk 21.4, 22.0, and latest canary (22006). Everytime system refuses to boot (shows MIUI boot screen for a couple of minutes, then vibrator, then system reboots to recovery).
I've also searched in https://xiaomi.eu/ forums, and the official Magisk general support thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/magisk-general-support-discussion.3432382/ but can't find any solutions.

Patching the images does not work. But installing the magisk.zip (the latest version) through TWRP or OrangeFox does work (tested and confirmed)! I don't get why it works when installing the zip and does not when patching a recovery.img but this is what we got...
Fun Fact, the instruction manual states you have to hold the HW key to enter recovery until the boot logo shows up, for me now the device is rooted on every boot without any issues, without the need to hold down any buttons.

I just decided to update to V12.1.3 yesterday and got the same problem as yours. Keep trying every version of magisk, from latest and its previous to no avail. It got stuck at MIUI logo even when I left for good half an hour. If I didnt flash magisk zip it loads just as normal but without root, but I still want magisk.
Today I just thought of trying different version of recovery. The current one is TWRP-3.3.2B-0219-XIAOMI_CC9PRO-CN-wzsx150 that got me stuck. Then I flash [email protected]_2.zip recovery. Flash V12.1.3 followed by Magisk-v22-0.zip using OrangeFox worked wonderful. Hope it can help you if you are still stuck like me. Now I can sleep at night.

Right now I'm still in trouble, after a Magisk update, my phone got stuck in bootloop I had to wipe everything.
But nor the latest .Eu or Global ROM works with Magisk now. I followed the guide by topjonwho (Magisk dev) that says if I don't have a boot.img, I have to modify the recovery.
Well, no luck.
But! If I take the boot.img from the fastboot ROM, and modify that with Magisk, I can boot it up with root. But if I flash that boot.img I'm still stuck on boot. Same with original and TWRP recovery.
You say using [email protected]_2.zip I can just simply flash Magisk 22.1 az a .zip, like in the good old days?

Yup, tried that boot.img method doesn't work too.
It was magisk 22.0 when I upgraded to 12.1.3 but i guess 22.1 works the same. So nervous waiting the MIUI screen for about 15 minutes, relieved when it finally went through.
Now I'm already upgraded to 12.1.5 magisk 22.1 using the same method. Flash rom followed by magisk zip, like good old days.

Can you see your files while your phone is booted into OS?
Chances are, the encryption type changed from FDE to FBE, meaning the master key no longer works.
I suggest you backup everything now to a computer, because you can end up like me, and lose access to any file on the phone.
If you saved everything you deem precious from your phone, you need to do a wipe, and then FORMAT /data in recovery.
This will factory reset your phone, but it will work proper with the recovery.
Hello, I had my OP7P rooted on android 11, but after updating to 11.0.6.1.GM21AA, I just couldn't get root to work.
I downloaded the OxygenOS 11.0.6.1.GM21AA from oneplus.com, extracted the boot.img, downloaded the new (supposedly with Android 11 support) TWRP (twrp-3.6.0_11-0-guacamole.img), booted to the TWRP, and installed root using the magisk APK, when I booted the phone had "Android Intellegnce stopped working" all sort of apps stopped working as well and some also crashed when I tried to open them, I flashed the original boot image and after some research I saw that using Magisk Canary build might help, so I tried with it too and same result.
I tried installing root using Magisk.apk, I tried patching a boot image using Magisk (both versions) but to no avail.
Some notes:
-Using the Canary build actually rooted my phone unlike the normal Magisk, but with problems still.
-When trying to use TWRP's "Flash Current TWRP" option, it overwrite my boot image and when trying to boot to fastboot or system it booted to recovery instead.
I will be glad for any help because having an unrooted device sucks.
Thanks in advance and sorry for any grammar mistakes (English is not my first language)
May be the first thing I'd think of trying it to disable any/all Magisk module installed.
Then, with the full OTA ROM stored in the main storage directory of your device... Basically a dirty Flash using the same OOS version you are using now and that should save the wipe/reset...
OTA Flash that and do not reboot and in Magisk manager check to see if manager is able to install Magisk as in install after OTA (?). That should work and then reboot device then verify. Don't forget to re-enable and Magisk modules...
Hope that can and will point you into the right direction.
I've not bothered with TWRP since I installed it then the next OTA went back to stock recovery. So, might be worth skipping TWRP for root as is not required so far as I can tell ... But I also have a Windows computer set up to flash via adb command alternatively.
Edit:. Think I forgot to say that the OTA update changed my TWRP back to stock recovery... But that's easy enough it change if desired

Hello, thanks for the reply, I wanna get a few things straight before doing anything that have the potential to brick my phone.
1. My phone rn isn't rooted, so I cant uninstall or disable Magisk modules, I CAN root my device but it is very unstable and im not sure doing it is a good idea, maybe there's another way to disable them?
2. What do you mean by dirty flash? Using the device update section and selecting the official OOS version I downloaded from OnePlus.com?
1) may be forget about root for now as that's probably not the priority at this time. Getting a stable operating system is the priority. And skip TWRP (don't see the point of if being needed at this step either).
2) my best guess is that I've used oxygen updater from the play store to download the full update (not incremental update) that exactly matches the one you have installed now - or search here and find the match to download or used the OnePlus cite to get the file. Then once that is downloaded to your device - go to settings/system/system updates/local update and install and reboot. That's the dirty Flash as in don't wipe/reset your device either before/after the installation. I'm hoping that this method will clean up both the recovery and boot images to stock and hopefully restore stability to your device without the wipe/reset.
Hope that helps and restore the device stability without TWRP nor root.
Hi wugga3, thanks again for your time, unfortunately a stable device is not my problem, I have managed to make a stable boot image by downloading the OOS version from the Oneplus website and flashing the boot image after attempting to root my device unsuccessfully.
My problem right now is that my device isn't rooted and I can't manage to root it using the methods I mentioned above, I currently have an unrooted stable OOS version 11.0.6.1.GM21AA.

How about installing just the magisk APK then taking the exctracted boot.img patching it in magisk APK, then disabling all security , take the patched boot.img and flash it in fast boot ( fastboot flash boot boot.img) reboot to system .

I downloaded the OxygenOS 11.0.6.1.GM21AA from oneplus.com, extracted the boot.img, downloaded the new (supposedly with Android 11 support) TWRP (twrp-3.6.0_11-0-guacamole.img), booted to the TWRP, and installed root using the magisk APK, when I booted the phone had "Android Intellegnce stopped working" all sort of apps stopped working as well and some also crashed when I tried to open them, I flashed the original boot image and after some research I saw that using Magisk Canary build might help, so I tried with it too and same result.
I tried installing root using Magisk.apk, I tried patching a boot image using Magisk (both versions) but to no avail.
Some notes:
-Using the Canary build actually rooted my phone unlike the normal Magisk, but with problems still.
-When trying to use TWRP's "Flash Current TWRP" option, it overwrite my boot image and when trying to boot to fastboot or system it booted to recovery instead.
I will be glad for any help because having an unrooted device sucks.
Thanks in advance and sorry for any grammar mistakes (English is not my first language)

Here's an Orangefox prerooted OxygenOS 11 boot.img that works on 11 and 12. Just boot to fastboot, connect to a PC open a command prompt in the same directory and type..
fastboot flash boot boot-v9-root24.img...
Also it's easier to just flash both slots by this commands..
Fastboot flash boot_a boot-v9-root24.img and then fastboot flash boot_b boot-v9-root24.img...
I dual boot with this version of twrp and here's a solid boot img. You can flash it also in recovery or with "partition manager off play store. Check it out.
Fixed!
Thanks so much for the suggestions, which I might didn't fully consider in a rush...
The solution was to root my phone, reboot it all shaky and try to disable all Magisk modules (took me 2 tries because of the crashes and stuff), then flash again the original boot image, rebooting, creating a rooted boot.img using Magisk and flashing it.

First of all thanks for the help but I ended up fixing it in another way.
Second of all, not really related but do you know if I can use this recovery on OP7Pro A12 custom Rom? (and flash it)
