OOS 10.3.1 update stuck at 89% installed - OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers

So, when I updated from OOS 9 to 10 I forgot to remove magisk and it's modules and completely forgot about it.
When I finished the update I noticed all the emojis where gone and from other posts here I found that it was because of a problem with the reserve partition that could be solved flashing a magisk module. Well, to my surprise, when I tried flashing magisk again on OOS 10 I always got stuck on a bootloop, I tried everything, removing the old modules that where still installed, using different twrp versions, using bluspark kernel, flashing a patched img through adb... But I always got a bootlop after installing magisk.
Since I couldn't get magisk on and was getting frustrated I decided to wait for the next OTA to see if it might fix it, but now that I tried installing it, I get stuck at 89% installation and don't know what to do. It's probably because of the reserve partition where the emoji should be, but since I can't use magisk idk how to fix it.
Is there another way to fix the reserve partition? Maybe a patch through twrp? Will a clean install of some sort help me or will it also get stuck at installation and brick my device?
Any help is welcome!
EDIT: Since noone replied I tried to fix it myself by trying to flash magisk a couple of times again (which gave me bootlops as expected), so I ended up flashing an OOS 5.1 downgrade build (which factory resets your phone so back up your stuff) and updating all the way to 10.3.1 through OTA updates. This fixed both my emoji and stuck update problem, so If you have similar problems and have not had any luck with other solutions I suggest you to downgrade like I did. If you back everything up on the cloud you should be back up and running in under an hour.

How did you flash the downgrade rom since your system updater is stuck?

Go twrp recovery, look for .Ota, flash the downloaded update zip and reboot.(Must be patient for step 2 to complete)
If can't find .Ota, go to File manager app, click storage below, click 3 dot on top right coner, settings, turn Show hidden file switch on

Help please! android.process.media has stopped and apps crashing

Hi,
I need some help. So basically what happened was I was rooted using the latest Supersu but was running 7.1.2 April patch on my Pixel. I stopped there since I read the May patch and supersu had issues. Now with the release of magisk for pixel I decided I wanted to update and change from supersu to magisk and here is what I did:
Went into TWRP and flashed unSU and then tried to flash magisk 14.2 but kept getting error 1 when trying to flash magisk. SuperSU was gone off my phone. I read that the issue with flashing magisk is I needed to flash the stock boot.img over the supersu patched one before I could flash magisk.
I wasn't sure how to get the stock boot.img so the next idea I had was to re-flash supersu, so I did that but the application didn't show up, so I remembered last time I did that that I had to delete the fstab.sailfish file. I did that then re-flashed supersu and it still wasn't there, so I downloaded the app from the playstore.
I went into the app and chose the full unroot option and said yes when asking if it wanted to restore the original boot.img.
After that I went back into TWRP and flashed magisk and it worked. I thought everything was good, when it booted all my root apps asked for permission.
Now the problems started , I kept getting the pop up that "android.process.media has stopped" working and also that gmail, calendar, photos, and the play movies app keep crashing.
I read that magisk can do OTA now without issues so I thought I would do the Android 7.1.2 to Anrdoid 8.0 jump using the OTA. I tried following this guide https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/blob/master/docs/tips.md#ota-installation-tips.
I thought updating would solve my issues but it didn't upon reboot with 8.0 I am still having all those apps continuously crash. I noticed magisk isn't installed anymore even though i followed those steps regarding the OTA update and magisk.
I also noted that when I plug my phone to my computer and chose transfer files nothing happens, the phone doesn't come up under my computer so I can't transfer anything.
what are my options now without losing any of my data? I did make a TWRP backup before I started all this, should I restore that? Will I lose my photos if I do that?
Please help!
Edit: Tried going into TWRP and I got the "No Command" picture. I was able to boot back into normal boot and into the phone.
Edit: Since updating to Oreo the "android.process.media has stopped" doesn't seem to appear anymore not sure if still an issue but Gmail, Photos, Calendar, and Play Movies keep crashing.
For anyone else that runs across this issue, wipe data for com.android.providers.media

Bootloop after flashing about anything

Hello!
I have FRD-L09 with latest officially available firmware(FRD-L09C432B360) EMUI 5.1
I have successfully unlocked the bootloader and installed TWRP 3.1.1-1-FRD.
I have tried installing custom ROMs, Lineage and the one newer from it. Bootloop.
Magisk. Bootloop.
SuperSU. Bootloop.
On Lineage ROM, i got bootloop despite formatting data before and wiping cache/dalvik after flashing.
On Magisk, i have tried latest stable(v16) and test build(v16.6), both resulting bootloop despite if i wipe cache/dalvik or not. Magisk uninstaller works though, so i don't need to restore the whole ROM again.
Exactly same thing with SuperSU.
And by bootloop, i mean that the Honor intro plays only like 2 seconds and the phone restarts.
Any wild guesses what could be wrong? Apparently the TWRP flashes them right, because Magisk uninstaller works.
I found out o some random thread that the Magisk needs a newer firmware. Coincidentally the newest update 402 came out, so i tried to install Magisk, and it works.
At the same time the TWRP app got installed also.
I haven't found anywhere that all those apps are firmware-dependent.

update to 9.5.9 bootloop, only fix was twrp bootloop fix but removed root

As the title says I updated to 9.5.9 and I installed magisk to ota slot and then I got a bootloop.... I fixed it by using twrp option to fix bootloop but that removed root, everything I do now sends it into a bootloop, please tell me there is a way to reroot this without wiping my data
https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...-to-uninstall-magisk-module-t3940369#poststop
Just had the same issue an hour ago. Do this then re-root your phone again. Easy. Then re-install magisk modules.

Had the same issue.
Same here. I just reflashed TWRP (flash boot command), flashed the TWRP installer zip, rebooted recovery and then flashed Magisk. That solved it.
By the way, theres a new TWRP out for the 7 Pro.
I got the same problem but my internal storage is encrypted (it shows 0kb). TWRP is not asking for PIN to unencrypt the partition. What can I do now?
Do we have a custom boot image for 9.5.9? I'm looking to root and want to find the best method which will continue to allow future updates (even if I need to flash manually)

Your best bet is to use the oxygen updater app, download 9.5.9 and then copy it to a PC then use boot.img extract thingy and then use magisk to patch it and then use fastboot to to root it

OTA with root and TWRP

Dears,
I have a OnePlus 6 unlocked and rooted with magisk and TRWP.
Currently I'm running stock firmware: oxygenos 10.3.
I got a message from system to update to 10.3.1.
Last time (when I have to update to 10.3) I tried to update in every way but without success and at the end I had to format everything and I lost my data.
So here is my question: which is the correct procedure to update software?
Thanks!
Look in TWRP and Root for OnePlus 6 on Oxygen OS 10 Stable/Beta thread
So you need to download latest Oxygen zip which is 042 buil if I'm not wrong...put it on your phone if you already didn't done that...then reboot to TWRP...and here starts the procedure....I HIGHLY RECCOMEND TO DO A WIPE WITHOUT FORMATTING INTERNAL STORAGE ONLY DATA...FOR AVOIDING ISSUES...but you can go without it...so here we start
Boot into twrp
Flash oxygen os zip(latest)
Flash twrp
Reboot to twrp(if it says no os installed just ignore it and swipe reboot anyway)
Flash magisk
and your done...thats it...nothing could go wrong.... I'm always doing it this way....

For me, the phone downloaded the whole package instead of just the little OTA. I let it install it, bit did not let it restart it. Then I went to magisk modules and installed "twrp-keep". Then in magisk manager I had it install magisk on the other slot. Then I restarted the phone. Everything worked great.

Try this method... im also done my update like this!
my way of doing it
Here's what i did and it didn't took me long at all i'm a newbie
I unroot my phone via magisk
install os 10.3.1 then flash twrp and root my phone again.
Dears,
Thanks for the replay.
I forgot that I was without TWRP.
What I did, and it worked, is:
- uninstall magisk manager by magisk
- install full update
- reboot
- flash by fastboot boot.img patched by magisk.
Thanks again

Updated to OOS 11.05.1.GM21AA, Magisk not working, TWRP too

Hi - I installed OOS 11.05.1.GM21AA on my OP7P today, and patched my boot.img file with Magisk 24.1.
After going into Fastboot Mode and doing a fastboot flash boot magisk_patched_boot.img, my OP7P rebooted OK, but my OP7P isn't rooted.
Is there something new that I am missing?
Also, is there a way to get both TWRP 3.6.x and Magisk to be available in the same patched boot image? It looks like TWRP completely overwrites the Magisk modded boot.img file, and then is stuck in a Recovery bootloop.
Thanks,
¿GJ?

I had the same issue, I had to downgrade to 11.04, grab a new 11.05 ota from oxygen updater app, extract boot from that and go from there

Is this the Oxygen Updater App you are referring to, or is it the incremental OTA that I would get from a "OnePlus system update" on a now unrooted and unTWRP'd phone?
Also ... Will I lose any data if I downgrade to 11.04? I've never downgraded before, so do I just install the stock 11.04 image via TWRP like I did the 11.05 image?
Lastly ... I'm assuming this will just get me root, but not including TWRP?

1. Yes that is the app Iam talking about.
2. Will you lose data? I always do a format (after the down grade) so I lost data but I never tried it with out formating, it might work, you could try it and see what happens .If it acts strange then it will need a format.
3. Yes you install 11.04 via twrp
4. Yes you will get root but if you want twrp you will have to reinstall
Once you down grade install the oxygen updater, let it download the update , don't let it install it, you can then grab the update from your root directory as it doesn't hide it, then your good to go, you can extract the boot.img by using payload dumper, then take the boot.img and patch that with the magisk app . ( Just install the magisk app on your downgraded 11.04 you don't need root to run the app ) ,,Then after your thru upgrading to 11.05 and after setup just reboot to bootloader and run the magisk patched boot.img, ( fastboot flash boot boot.img) reboot and wait a minute for the magisk app to appear ,it will want to install and do a reboot . Then you can install twrp if you want.
This is how I did it and it worked, you may find a simpler way once you start doing it ,, hth
I'm reluctant to go and do a total wipe (which I have been reading will be required to downgrade).
I'm wondering if the problem I'm facing is that my OP7P needed to be rooted for Magisk 24.1 to be able to successfully patch the latest OP7P build? My OP7P isn't rooted right now although I have v24.1 installed.
I accidentally had installed the latest 11.0.5 OTA before I had a chance to attempt re-rooting.

Right now I have 11.05 installed and Iam rooted, tomorrow I will unroot and downgrade to 11.04 without wiping and let you know what happens iam curious myself
I'm rooted now. I did have to wipe my OP7P to get root (due solely to my own heavy-handed approach to getting root again).
I posted in another thread, and I think that the thing that might have made a difference for me wasn't that I wiped, but possibly that I removed encryption before installing the Magisk-patched boot image.

I guess that's possible , I never thought of that, the only way to know is to do a fresh install only this time setup encryption then try to install magisk . But for now your rooted,, until the bug hits you or me to try another rom then we can start the whole thing over again,,
