Magisk causes bootloop - OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers

Hi! I just updated to 9.5.11 and tried flashing magisk 19.3 however that just causes a bootloop. I was flashing it through TWRP and immidiately when the enter pin-screen shows it says powering off. I then get rebooted into TWRP, when I go in advanced settings and press fix recovery bootloop it starts working again (I can boot and use the phone normally) but still no magisk. Anyone have any idea what I might be doing wrong? Downloaded the magisk file from the app, and tried from the website. Also tried using the all in one tool. Same issue. Appreciate any help.

Try to flash Magisk unninstaller first and only after attempt to reflash Magisk.
Most likely you left some module installed/active before the update that is causing the bootloops

Updated to 9.5.9 and now it reboots into TWRP over and over.

I followed the previously rooted guide to update to 9.5.9 and now when the phone reboots, it gets to the unlock screen and immediately tells me its shutting down and reboots back into twrp again. How do i fix this? Please help and thank you.
what method did you use (there are a million rooted guides)? did u get the correct OS OTA for you model phone? provide us more info please.
Looks like i forgot to turn off the magisk modules. I had to go into twrp and delete them all and re download the modules. silly me
I'm having a similar issue. I can't figure out what to do, but I i went and deleted all the zip files for magisk but after reinstalling magisk thru twrp, I get stuck booting to recovery everytime. I can someone help point me in the right direction?

I stuck at the same situation. Can you flashboot flash boot.img and then it can boot normally?
Same problem here.
Situation before flash: stock 9.5.8, Magisk, a number of Magisk modules
What I did:
* downloaded 9.5.9 with Oxygen Updater
* disabled Magisk modules
* rebooted
* installed 9.5.9 from the builtin System Update
* went to Magisk, installed it with After OTA
* rebooted to recovery
* installed TWRP and Magisk
* cleared Dalvik
* rebooted to system
The phone seems to start normally, but when it reaches the unlock screen it immediately goes to Power Off, then it reboots to TWRP (not power off). From TWRP I can decrypt data ok etc.
I tried reinstalling the boot loader, OTA image, TWRP, Magisk - same result. Rebooting to system from TWRP just goes back to Power Off then TWRP.

If this is any help in the future, whilst I don't have twrp, I install the updates via local update in settings > system > updates and then before reboot I go to magisk manager, and install magisk to second slot and reboot. Never had a problem and I'm on 9.5.9 now. The only modules I disable, update, or remove are the magisk ROMs available here such as no limits, as they are usually version specific.

That's exactly what I did. It landed me to the bootloop.
All you guys had to do is,
Install the full uddate zip in twrp,
Install the latest twrp zip,
Reboot recovery,
Install latest magisk,
Reboot system,
Hope this helps, cheers
Update: I can break out of the loop from TWRP > Advanced > Fix Recovery Bootloop. That lets me boot normally, but loses root. As soon as I reinstall Magisk I get back to the bootloop.

I'm in the same boat.
My twrp doesn't offer to decrypt partition_b so I cannot manually install Magisk on the new partition.
This seems to be a common problem when updating rooted Oneplus 7 pro and I haven't found a update guide which actually works every time. Last update to 9.5.8 I had the same issue where I couldn't get into oxygen os because it turned itself off and when twrp opened I couldn't decrypt the data. I couldn't find a solution last time and I had to full wipe and start from scratch. Now I don't want the same to happen so I hope someone can post a guide how to do the update successfully.

Works every time, the same way I have been doing for both 6T and 7 Pro.
Sometimes you might be on the wrong active slot, you can change this by using fastboot set_active a or fastboot set_active b. TWRP seems to like changing your slot but will tell you when it does. If you're getting stuck try changing slot and booting.

It worked for me for 9.5.8, got the bootloop this time around. I guess this means I'm not the Chosen One.

I tried that too. When I switch to the other slot I get to a menu where I can only wipe data, reboot to boot loader, or reboot to recovery. Not particularly useful.
Hey guys!
I'm having the same problem. No matter how I try to update it will reboot to stock recovery.
I was wondering if any of you have /Data converted to f2fs? Maybe it could be culprit...

What I had to do here was go to fastboot mode and flash twrp img. Then in TWRP I flash the TWRP zip file and magisk and rebooted. All good
Alright so I fixed mine. I went and just removed all the modules while I was in twrp. To do that go to Advanced, then file manager or whatever it says, find the adb folder and from there look for a folder named Modules and just delete them all. From there just reinstall magisk through twrp and it should all work.

Thank you sir, this fixed it for me, too. So the missing link was that Magisk modules have to be removed completely, not just disabled, before upgrading. Removing all directories except .core from /data/adb/modules allows the phone to boot normally, with Magisk enabled.

Can´t boot to recovery. Always landing in QUALCOMM CrashDump Mode

Like the title says, I can´t boot to recovery (Oneplus one). If I try to boot to recovery, I´m ending in the Qualcomm CrashDump Mode.
I have a Oneplus 7 Pro with Stable 10.0 BA FW.
Rooted with Magisk (Patched Boot.img) Is this causing the problem?
After pressing Vol+ and powerbutton, the devices boots normally.
Thanks in advance.

I had the same issue this morning when trying to update to 10.0.1. Just boot to bootloader and boot twrp then install 10.
I think is the magisk update (magisk 20.0) that causes this, because it's happening to me in the beta 3 and before I updated magisk it was working fine with the beta 2

I have no issues with magisk or twrp.
It might be the way you are installing ota or rom.
Might be model specific not sure as I don't know what model you are on. Mine is GM1915.
I'm talking about the official recovery
GM21AA, exactly the same situation (from 10 stable to 10.0.1 and magisk from 19.4 beta to 20) and the stock recovery bump into Qualcomm Crashdump problem here, system bootup normal as well as bootloader.
Troubleshooting:
1. Local update twice, install magisk at inactive slot OTA before reboot, for Android 10's A/B partitions machinasm , try let magisk patch both boot.img. Same...
2. Local update and reboot, lost root but stock recovery work, Fastboot boot twrp.img (latest, not flash, cause I don't need the permanent twrp)->twrp install magisk, reboot system, then, again, same problem.
Todo:
Magisk manager or twrp uninstall magisk, but if it's fail maybe ended up to bootloop, scary.
May try to install back old 19.4 magisk.zip via twrp, it's working in 10.0.0
Anyone with the same problem have any idea?
Thats the exact same error I ran into.
But as mentioned earlier, I never had TWRP on my OP7P. I flashed the patched boot.img via adb and I´m still on 10.0 BA Firmware.
I thought TWRP dosn´t work on Android Q (I´m coming from an Pixel3 and there it won´t work) So maybe I will give TWRP a try tomorrow. Are there different versions or is the official one the best?

The recovery here is the one to use.

Be sure to read through
So thanks erveryone who helped.
I now have TWRP running as recovery. So there is no need for official recovery. (and no Qualcomm CrashDump Mode)
Had this happen to me earlier this week. Just ended up using the MSM tool and restoring shipping firmware. You can look for the unbricking thread here for more info on that.
Yea, this just happened to me. Updated Magisk, Updated to 10.0.1 from 10.0. Booted fine.
Re-installed a few magisk modules (didn't just re check the modules, but reinstalled each)
Now OS won't boot, and recovery goes to Crash Dump. Would be ok if OS wouldn't bootloop and I could get to OS.
Oh, and my ADB now is an unauthorized device while its in bootloop mode
EDIT:
phew. Tried to hold volume up+dn rather than up or dn, got into bootloader. Able to fastboot boot TWRP and then delete problematic RIRU magisk modules. All is well in the world now...
I don't get it why it have to be so hard.
I'm constantly soft bricking/ bootlooping this phone when trying to do simple things such flashing magisk and twrp. I remember it being so much easier with my Poco F1, never got close to bricking it.
Now every little mistake ends with a bricked phone and 5 hours on the internet trying to understand why

Same issue here and no TWRP installed.
I did ADB REBOOT FASTBOOT and was able to install the twrp image by FASTBOOT BOOT twrp-3.3.1-70-guacamole-unified-Q-mauronofrio.img
Going to try and remove Magisk and see if I can salvage my data and then re-install Magisk afterwards.
Ok...got back into the system by flashing the Magisk Uninstaller in TWRP that is here: https://magiskroot.net/md/Magisk_Manager_for_Recovery_Mode_(mm)-2019.4.4.zip
Went to advanced in TWRP, then to terminal, then typed mm.
Typed in C for Core only to load into system without Magisk. Deleted my Magisk modules that may have interfered with it (I had an older version of No Limit that I should have updated prior. After removing and rebooting back into system, all is fine now.

Yea man, things are hinkey this update.
My big problem was i had twrp but it got wiped i guess (could no longer access) and couldn't access adb nor fastboot. But finally got into bootloader (cmd fastboot) so was able to fix.
Easier solution than installing Magisk uninstaller (presuming one has twrp installed, which would be the case if able to flash Magisk uninstaller) is go to TWRP>advanced>file manager and navigate data/adb/modules and delete from there
DO you guys know if there is an updated magisk being developed or what is the way to fix it? Uninstall magisk via TWRP (since I can temporarily install and get into TWRP using the all in one tool by the TWRP developer). Then install TWRP and then Install Magisk ?

I goofed up: Tapped wrong option to update Magisk and now I don't have a recovery

Please bear with me.
I was about to upgrade from Magisk 19.4 to 20 and I tapped on "Install to inactive slot (after OTA)" instead of the recommended option "Direct install), then clicked yes without reading because I though I tapped the correct option... and after that, without rebooting, I tapped the Direct install option and rebooted. (Yup, I effed up that whole part.)
Then, when booting up the phone got stuck in fastboot.
I followed @Arden144's steps to install twrp and I was able to boot into twrp and flash magisk.
If I go to power options and tap on reboot to OS, it boots fine and I have Magisk 20. My modules are still there and everything seems fine. Wi-Fi, fingerprint sensor and SafetyNet are fine.
BUT! Now, for my actual problem:
Whenever I use advanced reboot to go to the recovery, go to recovery through Magisk Manager, press Volume Down + Power to boot into recovery or even select "Recovery" in TWRP's power menu, the phone just goes to fasboot and I can't enter the recovery unless I "fastboot flash" a recovery.
Thankfully if I select "Start", the phone starts fine. Previously it just looped back to the fastboot but seems that reflashing twrp at least fixed that.
But yeah, I can't enter TWRP without a computer to fastboot, which sucks.
What can I do? Flashing twrp doesn't seem to stick.
Thank you for any advice you can give me!

There's a known issue with Magisk 20 that makes TWRP not stay installed. Downgrade to 19.4 or hold tight without TWRP

Oooh. What an awful moment to have this problem, then.
Unfortunately, I reflashed Magisk, (Manager now shows 19.4) but TWRP doesn't stay installed... What worries me is that not even the stock recovery is available to use, just fastboot.

You can try using the Magisk Canary Uninstaller to completely clean up the Magisk install, or dirty flash the stock ROM
Magisk 20.1 works for me with latest TWRP.
have you tried installing TWRP as a magisk module?
Try this..
To solve the prroblem
1. Reflash the latest rom.you have using system.update...
2. Install magisk to inactive slot
3. Reboot
4. Goto magisk and flash twrp installer v70..
5. Install magisk again as recommended..
Reboot...
when that happened to me i grabbed magisk uninstaller and fadtboot booted twrp flash magisk uninstaller then twrp zip reflashed magisk 20. whatever new version of magisk is

Flash twrp to ramdisk. It should stick. I have it installed to ramdisk. Also updated from 19.3 to 20 with twrp still there.
Same happened to me. No recovery partition it seems. Lol going to try ecompton's suggestion later.

Please help me i have mistacke i unstall magisk now i went to restore root

I can't seem to Flash Magisk after the most recent OTA

I have TWRP installed but any time I try to Flash magisk, the boot image seems to corrupt and leaves me on the 'Bootloader unlocked' screen. I have to boot back into bootloader and use the 'repair recovery boot loop' option just to get back into my phone which then doesn't have Magisk available and root has not taken. Does anyone have any advice? Is there a boot image I need to flash after Magisk maybe? I'm fairly new to all this.

Hello, would love to know because I have same issue here …
In fact I could effectively have root and magisk installed once, then I installed viper which didn't work... I removed viper module from Magisk Manager, then reboot, then got into the issue you describe. The 'repair recovery boot loop' allows booting but magisk is removed. And if I flash magisk again from TWRP, then the phone won't boot.
I tried reinstall TWRP/Magisk without success, tried lock/unlock bootloader (don't do that ! I could get out of it but no more success with magisk), also tried to remove the viper module with TWRP file manager (I could but it did not solve the issue), not sure what to do now.
What versions TWRP and Magisk?

Stuck on an infinite boot animation that runs slow after installing Magisk 20.1

Ok, so I had to reinstall my OS through TWRP (2GB Full update)... and rebooting to the Bootloader to reinstall TWRP and rebooting again, I want to install Magisk again.
When I install Magisk through TWRP and reboot, the boot animation is stuck forever and animates very slowly. The only way to get out is to press VOL UP + POWER and inmediately VOL DOWN + POWER to enter TWRP. To fix the stuck boot animation I have to reinstall the full OxygenOS update and reinstall TWRP.
My problem is that I'm in this vicious cicle where if I install Magisk it doesn't work and I have to reinstall the OS and TWRP.
What am I missing? Why Magisk is making my device stuck on the boot screen?
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!
I had that earlier today. For me I switched to the other partition from twrp and rebooted and it worked fine. Guess I'll flash ROM and magisk to both partitions next time

So let me make sure I understood you. I need to switch to Slot B and also install the OS and Magisk?
OK, an update. After trying to switch slots, install the OS in both of them and Magisk and all the possible permutations, I tried flashing 19.4 and it worked flawlessly first time.
Now I'm going to update it!
Update 2: I'm finally running the latest version! Updating Magisk through Magisk Manager worked fine.

I have the same issue with the slow boot animation and the endless loading. I tried to install the OTA again, TWRP again and magisk 20.1, 20.0, 19.4 ...
Sadly the animation stays that slow and my OP7Pro doesnt boot up. How exactly did you get rid of that problem? I feel like I tried every combination of flashing

I had this with PA. Not sure what caused it as my flashing process is the same every time.
In the end I gave up and formatted /data

I decided to give up too... Was a bad mistake. I accidentely rebooted the phone after the update today. I will never do that mistake again
That dreadful moment when you have this problem again and googling points you to your own thread with no solutions.
UPDATE: Oh I think I got it! I had to uninstall Magisk Manager AND flash Magisk Uninstaller zip, reboot to OS, reboot to Recovery again and flash Magisk 20.3 again and it finally worked! No more stuck slow boot animation.
Probably the two reboots aren't needed, but I like doing things slow.
