is it possible to upgrade from pie hos to a10 oos using local update? - OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers

hello there.
sorry for making a new thread .. ive asked my question multiple times no one answered properly. so here's the situation:
just received the phone from china . i'm on android pie hos. and want to update to ob7 . having root and twrp is it the right way to do it? :
1. update to ob7 using local update and full zip file.
2. unlock the bootloader and flash twrp 70 (or 74 i'm not sure?) using adb
3. flash magisk and twrp installer in twrp recovery
4. done!
i heared its better to use twrp 70 and dont know the reason. whats wrong with the latest version?

Not sure if that will work, but locally upgrading from h2OS to OOS worked on my old op6 when I had it.
If it does not work;
Backup your files first then you need to unlock your bootloader.
Then boot twrp via command prompt. Once booted into twrp. Wipe data and do a factory reset there. Flash twrp installer then reboot into recovery.
Flash OB7, twrp installer and magisk then reboot to recovery again and flash ob7, twrp installer and magisk then reboot to system
I'm using .74
Not sure what the problem is/are.
Regards

It can be done but I wasn't happy with it there were loads of bugs.. Issues slowdowns etc.. I would suggest strictly against it..

Which route you want to follow twrp or official? If its official i'd say try the msm tool.. That will put you on oldest pie and then you can do OTA..
Twrp is self explanatory..

How to move to Stable pie from open beta pie

I'm on unrooted, unlocked bootloader OnePlus 6 With open beta 3 on stock recovery.
Just want to shift to stable pie. How to do that? Because when i tried using local upgrade option in system updates i got it can't be downgraded. Refer screenshot for better understanding
I only know how to do this with twrp.
So: fastboot boot twrp.img (guide in forum) (use latest blu_spark)
Flash latest blu_spark twrp.zip
Reboot to twrp
Flash rom.zip
Flash blu_spark twrp again
Not booting do it one more time.
Dont want twrp at all? Don't flash it after the rom.. I would keep it atleast until you know it all works, then dirty flash rom.zip to get rid of it.. If that's your cup of tea

Is there anyway doing it without flashing twrp? Wouldn't flashing it avoid warranty?

(Unlocking the bootloader, Flashing twrp, rooting.....) don't void warranty on oneplus devices
I want to do the same, go from Pie beta 4 to Original Pie version, but have no root, twrp ot whatever. I enabled Developer Option, enabled OEM Unlock(bootloader) , downloaded the official OxygenOS from OnePlus. I go to System Updates, click Local Upgrade and select the ZIP, but then it says it can't since this version is older than the one installed and downgrade is not possible. Now what?
Second question: what s better, has more latest updates and news stuff; beta or the stable?
Gee, really nobody has a clue?
There is a special downgrade image to move from the Pie betas back to Oreo.
Search XDA or the the OnePlus forums for the downgrade image (it should be in one of the announcement threads for the betas).
After the downgrade to Oreo you can use an OTA or full download to upgrade to official Pie.

Which version of TWRP bluespark?

I just currently got the latest ota and let it install and I installed magisk from the manager by choosing to install to inactive partition after ota. That worked flawlessly and was able to keep root. But I lost TWRP of course. I was using the official TWRP. I've been noticing everyone going to TWRP bluespark recovery. But which one do I download??? From what I understand there is a version for oos android 8 Oreo and a version for oos android 9 pie. I'm on official oos pie. So which one do I need?

Just take the latest official TWRP and you are fine. Trust me.

Thank you. But still would like to know if I decide to use bluespark version.
Sure. If you want to use Blu Spark TWRP use this one twrp-3.2.3-x_blu_spark_v9.86_op6
IMG and zip files are here https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/?id=27466#downloads
You can use TWRP official or Blu Spark TWRP. What ever you like. Blu Spark is recommended for people coming from oos beta to stable

May I ask what the difference is?
Just to add a note to you for next ota.
After ota is installed go to magisk manager
Press download
Search for twrp a/b
Install (don't reboot)
Now go to main screen and press install
Choose to inactive slot (after ota)
This way you keep both twrp and root
Happy flashing

Is it possible to downgrade from 9.5.7 to 9.5.5 or lower?

Hey guys im really unhappy about the newest firmware. It isnt as smooth as it used to be and I would like to downgrade the firmware. I have already downloaded the 9.5.5 firmware. I tried several solution via search but One plus software wont let me downgrade. In recovery modus there isnt even an Option to install via zip
IS it possible to install TWRP and install the firmware there? Or is there any solution to this?

Yes you should be able. Download the fastboot firmware, make sure to select the right variant. Then fastboot then flash-all after you unzip your firmware

the above post would prob be the easiest but its a high possibility will have to format user data (sdcard) and is a Clean install. You can flash through TWRP
Flash full zip through TWRP
flash TWRP Installer
Reboot back to TWRP
flash Magisk
Reboot to OS

is there any TWRP ROM?
or just TWRP the fastboot rom?
you can download the full zip here or if you download it from Oxygen Updater app. Those you can flash with twrp. Just make sure to flash Magisk too if you flash via TWRP
The fastboot rom you do no flash through TWRP, you flash it via fastboot.

I didn't read anywhere in this thread an indication of your bootloader status. Are you already unlocked?
- if you are not unlocked, then you will need to unlock it to gain root and TWRP. And unlocking the bootloader automatically wipes your internal storage.
- if you are unlocked, then you can proceed with installing root, and TWRP. As other users have posted, you can downgrade with a simple flash of 9.5.5 over 9.5.7... if they both share the same month's security patch.

Installing Magisk on stock global miui

Since kernel releases are yet to be published " a total duck move by xiaomi ?" I wanted to keep on using the stock ROM without changing anything but miui is too cringy for me to live with it, so I need to put the ol'rooting hat once again
My question is.. did any one actually root it using magisk and can still get ota , or you would need to uninstall magisk then update then get magisk again?
Also what happens to TWRP , can it coexist with miui ?
I had a previous xiaomi phone (mido) but tbh I never even thought of using the miui and switched to RR once I unlocked the bootloader ?
You can get ota with magisk but updating will rewrite boot and recovery so you'll need to re-root.

FYI, I'm still on stock EU v12.0.3.0 with mauronofrio TWRP and rooted with Magisk.
I got two OTAs already, the last with v12.0.4.0 -- and it even tried to apply one of them while I wasn't looking but it obviously failed, since there's no stock recovery.

What if I reflash the stock recovery.img after rooting, that might get the ota working ?
Yes I know I would still have to flash twrp and magisk again after it
I'll test it on my old phone first , hope it can work as a reference for one last time of it's miserable life

I thought the same, but then I'm not keen on moving to v12.0.4.0 right now, so I didn't budge. Let us know how it goes. :good:

Still the same, just flash the root file and reboot it up... And also install magisk manager to have root management
Orange Fox is much more recommended for our Poco by ManoloRey for installing AOSP ROMS...

Having issues decrypting after attempting to do OTA update

Hi,
My phone is rooted and with twrp. After attempting to perform OTA update, it now boots straight to the fastboot screen. I still can get TWRP to work but there is no prompt to decrypt my phone after twrp starts so I basically can't read the phone contents. Much appreciated if anybody here can guide me to fix my phone. Does it mean I will lose all my data?
Thank you!
