Upgrade to Pie?

Running 5.1.11 and stock recovery but rooted using Magisk.
When I check for new updates, it tells me since I am rooted it have to download the complete ROM (Pie).
Any reasons not to upgrade this way? After the update I will be on Pie and will have lost root but everything else will work as it should?

installing Android 10 over Pie

I'm wondering if I can install Android 10/Q over Pie without having to clean flash. On the Pixel 3 there were issues during rooting when there wasn't a clean update.

I'd say try it out. I just installed Android 10 yesterday via ADB sideload over Android Pie with TWRP. As always, perform a backup in TWRP before going forward with anything.
Edit: to clarify as well, I was rooted with Magisk and TWRP on Android Pie. Using TWRP/adb sideload, the OS updated without any issues. After that, I installed TWRP and Magisk v. 20.1 again and have been fine for 16 hours.

How to update stock MIUI on a rooted phone with twrp?

Question OTA wiped root. How to regain?

Hi folks, I am running a Pixel 6A that I rooted with magisk back in December. I stupidly did not disable OTA updates. Last night the QPR2 update came down and wiped root from my phone.
Bootloader is still unlocked and magisk app is installed.
I am confused about the best way to restore root. I see that the QPR2 beta required the use of the pixel 7 boot image. Does that still hold for the stable QPR2?
Also, the magisk app offers a way to choose and patch an image within the app. Can I get the pixel 7 boot image and patch it in magisk, or do I have to use the ADB/ fastboot method?
Sorry for the trouble. I promise I will disable OTA updates in the future. Thanks for any help.
Hello! I am also root user and if it is true that there was an update with the boot 6a not root and I had to use the pixel 7 or 7 pro (I do not remember which was) but if in doubt I would try only with the 6a just in case, the procedure is to download the full rom of the same version you have now, extract the boot.img, patch it with magisk and flash it by adb from the pc, is the method I use in each update and no problems until today, good luck and greetings!
If you are using Magisk Stable 26.1 or Canary 26101, you can use the Pixel 6a boot image to root as the problems mentioned above have been fixed with these versions of Magisk.
Problem solved. Y'all rock.
I'm having a similar problem. I'm am unable to find the boot.img anywhere in the zip file I'm on Bluejay TQ2A 230305.008E1.

Download and open the zip => open "image-bluejay-tq2a.230305.008.e1.zip" => find your boot.img
