Is there a latest stock ROM I can flash instead of the custom ROM I'm using now? - OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers

I'm TWRP'd and Magisk'd running a custom ROM (Havoc}, but it's a little buggy. I'm looking to flash a stock ROM with the latest OxygenOS, and then maybe use a Magisk module over that.
Can I? And if so, can you point me to the correct custom ROM thread? I see a couple, but not sure which one is flashable, and which one is for restoring the phone to completely stock (removing TWRP, etc.).

I suggest using this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-7-pro/how-to/rom-stock-fastboot-roms-oneplus-7-pro-t3931424

I don't think you can flash a stock ROM, and keep TWRP without flashing TWRP again. TWRP will always be removed when flashing a stock ROM, since recovery doesn't reside on it's own partition for this device, but rather is on boot.img, which by definition needs to be flashed with the ROM (contains the kernel).
AFAIK, you will need to flash the stock ROM then flash TWRP and Magisk again. To do that, fastboot flash the above linked stock ROM, then fastboot boot TWRP.img, then in TWRP flash TWRP installer zip and flash Magisk. Wouldn't take long to do, just have the TWRP zip and Magisk zip on the phone ready to go, before you flash the stock ROM.

If you're running magisk, try reflashing that.
Alternatively flash magisk uninstaller and reflash magisk.
If not running magisk, read the other current bootloop threads and flash the stock boot.img.

It's so simple though. Flash magisk, reflash magisk. If not magisk, flash stock.

OB10 to custom roms

Hi there, can someone enlighten me how yo flash custom roms?my device already unlocked bootloader and i know how to flash cuz i play with xiaomi mi5, sams galaxy3 , sony x8.
For now i dont have a twrp. Im going twrp by fastboot before this.
Im really sure that i already go through all of the post. But seems from OB10 is really complicated.
1.ready fastboot twrp, bluspark twrp,roms, gapps and magisk( if necessary) and custom kernel
2.fastboot twrp by cmd or else
3.wipe what here? Or just factory reset and leave internal storage?
*Here i confused, do i need to wipe for both slot. Im still new to a/b partition. And do i need to do that for both slot to flash as steps 4-10 as below?
4.flash roms then bluspark twrp
5.reboot to recovery
6.flash gapps,magisk? Then twrp back?
7.reboot to twrp
8.flash custom kernel then twrp again?
9.reboot system
10. End right?
Please help me here. I cant find the real and proper steps. The only way i found is from OB7 to custom roms as they share same security patch.
Thanks for any help.
1. Flash any strock rom.zip partition A.
2. After that recovery.zip
3. Reboot back to recovery
4. Confirm you are in another slot B
5. Flash stock rom.zip. Which slot first is not important.
6. After that flash recovery.zip and then reboot.
After that you can install whatever you want.
That what I do if im switching roms and trying new stuff.
Working everytime.
Until OB7 and stable 9.0.2 I used fasboot roms, flashed via AIO tool, but new fastboot roms working different and I got laggy video and audio.
Okeh thats clear for both slot. But for OB10 to any customs rom is it needed to flash OB7?
What do you mean by stock rom?bete rom or stable rom?

Stock any offical rom for OP6
9.0.2 or 9.0.3 or any OB3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
If you want custom rom, look instructions, there is mentioned what is base rom. That you need flash.
If there is custom rom based OB7 then you need flash OB7(probably working lower builds also)
Thank brotha. I think they need to state which firmware do we need to start from. Otherwise it will be like me that confusing as they will patch up more and more security.

Pie ROM, pie firmware. (Except pre release betas)
Oreo ROM, Oreo firmware.
ROM - always flash latest firmware of the OS you want pie or Oreo (I always go for latest and don't have any issues . Tho I'm back to oos ,debloated now.)
Twrp - Always after ROMs, before roboot.
Gapps - after twrp and reboot, to make sure it installs to the right slot, that's why you install twrp and then reboot.. this will change your slot from A to B or from B to A. Manual switch is never necessary
Flashing gapps flashes to the slot you are in right now, so flashing before the first reboot (after twrp flash) Will get it to the wrong slot.
Magisk - if you want root. After all.
After all this you can, if you want, flash decrypt ..if you don't need your device to be encrypted,this Will give you more to think of tho.. let's just not go into this now.
i understand the process, but get confused at which file to specifically flash twice when they say
"latest firmware of the OS". So lets say the custom ROM i want to flash needs a PIE firmware 9.0.2 or higher,
what file am i supposed to flash?
9.0.2-PIE-OnePlus6Oxygen_22_OTA_027_all_1810260000_d46787d2c9-FASTBOOT.zip
or
OnePlus6Oxygen_22_OTA_027_all_1810260000_d46787d2c9.zip

Losing TWRP and Magisk after update

I'm running stock ROM on unlocked bootloader with root through Magisk. I've been using TWRP, but changed over to Blu_spark TWRP recently.
Every time I update my OS Ota, I lose TWRP and Magisk. The Magisk app is installed, but the ROM is not rooted. If course, if I try to install patch the system so it's rooted through the Magisk app, it says that it can't unpack the file. If I reboot to recovery to install from there, I get the stock recovery, not TWRP.
I tried to re-install TWRP and Magisk once before, and borked my phone. I had to quote and start from scratch. I lost all data since I wasn't rooted and Titanium Backup would not run.
What is the proper way to get TWRP and Magisk back after an OTA update?
Flash them after you flash update zip. If you don't you will lose recovery and root every time. Gets overwritten by stock recovery. Normal behavior
Sent from my ONEPLUS A6003 using Tapatalk
So you're saying that instead of doing the OTA update, I should download the update from here, and manually update it ? Can I just install the update? I'm rooted, (well, I was) so the OTA will only download the full update. Is that required instead of the update?
I really have to do a full re-install for every update? That sucks. A lot.
Full reinstall? No. You just have to flash the full ROM. This doesn't mean, you'll loose all your data: Just TWRP, Magisk and (if you have it) your custom kernel. You only have to flash TWRP (or simply boot into it), Magisk and kernel (again: if you have it) after the update. Done.

Ok. Cool. I tried that last time, but it failed. As a result, I'm a bit anxious about doing it again. Hopefully, I won't have any problems this time.
Thanks for the info.
I have had similar troubles as you, here's an overview of how to solve those problems.
OTA through OS:
Download and install OTA
Use Magisk Manager to download the TWRP A/B retention script and install it
Install Magisk to current and inactive slot
Reboot
Guys I am using latest blu_spark twrp. my bootloader is unlocked and I am running oxygenOS openbeta23. Following is my problem.
My flash order: (Note: already I have bue_spark twrp recovery running without issues)
1. Flash the full OTA(openbeta)
2. Flash the blu_spark twrp zip file on both active and non active slots.
3. Flash the latest magisk zip file. If step 3 is not successful means I will try to reboot in to recovery and again flash the magisk installer zip.
Until some time back all this worked fine. But for last 2-3 times although the flashing process of twrp zip on both slots ends with success message, when I reboot to recovery from twrp in order to flash magisk, the device boots in to stock recovery. I don't know how even after flashing twrp zip on both slots successfully why the devices bootbback to stock recovery. Then to have blu_spark twrp I have to connect my device to a computer in fastboot mode and then boot in to custom recovery using the blu_spark twrp image file and again flash the blu_spark twrp zip file which is inconvenient and also requires a computer.
Am I missing anything here?? If yes why this method was working perfectly before? Please somebody help.
Regards,
Sivabalan K
I flash in following order my stable updates
Flash full rom zip
Flash bluespark recovery
Restart into bluespark recovery
Flash magisk
Restart into Android
Everything works flawless. Magisk installed with all the modules running
Hi guys,
Don't you need to disable lock pattern/PIN or fingerprint/face ID? And don't need to uninstall magisk modules?
I never update my OP6 from my initial unlock/twrp/magisk and I'm a bit anxious to do it now...
Thanks
PS : I'm using original twrp (3.2.3-1), is this a problem?

CUstom ROM installation problem, please help

Hi to everyone. I have a european version of the op7 pro. The device produces an issue when using android auto, which I use daily (the bottom bar is rarely responsive to my touches whereas the rest of android auto works fine). So I wanted to try a custom ROM and see if the problem persists.
I tried multiple roms like havoc, aosip and lineage following the respective guides of installation, but regardless of the ROM, I always get stuck at the startup animation when I first try to reboot to system after installing twrp, magisk, gapps etc.
The only rom that seems to work is any version of OOS.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Exact what steps you do when installing a custom ROM?
U need to explain how you flash those OS; from my experience on OP6 -> flashing a third party rom need to update it' firmware to match the rom u try to flash, or else it cannot go into system definitely!
Steps :
Unlock bootloader
Boot twrp
Flash twrp
Flash rom
Flash twrp
Reboot to recovery
Once again flash rom
Once again flash twrp
Flash magisk
Flash gapps
Use international version instead of European. This mostly solves the issue.
Also steps should be.
Flash oos
Flash twrp
Reboot recovery
Flash oos
Flash twrp
Reboot recovery
Format data
Flash rom
Flash twrp
Flash gapps (if required)
Flash magisk(if needed)
Flash dm verity (if needed)
Reboot system

I think this post is useful. But what is dm verity, where to find?
I flash the roms and manage to open them but sensors not working on any custom rom. I create a topic to help but nobody cared.

You must Format internal storage before booting into Custom ROM.
Also, when you flash a Custom Rom, when it's done flashing, reboot once more to recovery and then flash the rest like Gapps, Magisk, etc... (Keep in mind that some custom ROMs require once time boot before flashing Magisk).

How to get back to A10 after custom rom

Hi all so I am planning to install a Havoc OS on my phone with TWRP and Magisk
So my question is in the event that the install doesnt work out for me or that I dont like the rom (no rearson why I shouldnt) how do I get back to the original A10 rom?
I have downloaded the OxygenOS 10.0.6 [EU] OnePlus 7 Pro 5G.zip file from here already. Would I be able to go ahead boot into TWRP and flash this ifneeded?
TIA Bart

Hi Bart,
Make sure you keep TWRP recovery after flashing custom Rom.
Then if you want to go back, flash official Rom zip on both slots after formatting data otherwise it won't boot.
Thanks for that.
Only thing I'm not sure is what you mean by flashing to both slots?
If for example you get a boot loop can you still get into TWRP?
I assume this is a yes as this is before it boots into the phones OS?

When returning to stock,
format data
Flash stock zip
Flash TWRP
Reboot into recovery which is TWRP
Follow the same steps again and reboot...
If you end up in boot loop, don't stress. You can always flash TWRP recovery again via fastboot.
