wifi breaks after rooting update 5.1.8

I updated my op6 from 5.1.6 to 5.1.8 using twrp. But after that i lost root access and lost twrp recovery. Then i flashed the twrp and magisk again. the phone gets rooted but wifi is broken after doing this. Has any of u have the same issue as mine?

I had that same issue today - i downloaded the rom from OnePlus directly, flashed it back to factory, and then followed the instructions in

Works like a charm without TWRP for me.

Did you reflash twrp directly after OS update without rebooting?

Correct. Reboot is not required. Boot to recovery, flash OOS, flash TWRP and Magisk and reboot.

After updating os.
Flash twrp
Reboot recovery
Flash magisk.
Follow this order and the problem will be solved. I had the same problem too.

You are losing wifi because you have one of the early versions of twrp that used a kernel from HOS.
The magisk non twrp method works great.
Also, there is an updated thread about rooting that has the new TWRP installer. It wont break wifi.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/guide-how-to-install-official-twrp-t3801558
Basically you boot into twrp, Install latest rom, run the updated twrp installer, install magisk.
Thats the new normal on this phone btw (install rom, install twrp, install magisk) because the kernel is part of recovery or something like that lol

Wiped and back to stock recovery... Sigh.

Hi!
I have a OP6. Running rooted stock with BluSpark TWRP and Magisk. Some months ago I rooted it and I was running 9.0.1 or 9.0.0, not sure which one. I then updated to 9.0.2 OTA a week or so later. I can not remember the exact procedure, but everything worked fine. Today I installed 9.0.3 OTA and then used Magisk (18.0) before reboot to install it to slot A (9.0.2 was on B). Somehow, I ended up with a wiped device and stock recovery. Can anyone help me to find my potential fault in this? I don't want it wiped during the next OTA, it's a real hassle to set up everything again. I remember that I checked a guide that had tips on OTA, but I can't seem to find it.
Best.

I had the same thing happen to me. I missed the part where I flash TWRP right after the OTA. That probably triggered the factory reset

So instead of rebooting, I should do a "fastboot boot IMAGE" and then install the bluspark twrp zip from inside that one? I guess I can boot up to TWRP and install Magisk as well after this while I'm at it?

Are you flashing from twrp?
If so,flash ROM zip
Flash twrp zip
Reboot to twrp
Flash magisk
Done.
If ur doing it from Android
Install ROM,when it asks you to reboot, DON'T
go to magisk app
Go to modules
Search for a/b twrp (you should only find one module)
Install it ,don't reboot
Go to main magisk screen
Press install,install, install to inactive slot (after OTA) after it's done you can REBOOT.
The module keeps your twrp
Flashing magisk to inactive slot will root the update you just installed

I was installing the OTA normally, without TWRP. It worked just fine last time.

You shouldn't install any OTA if you are rooted.
Only full roms.

I understand. But it doesn't change the fact that it worked like a charm last time. I just assumed there might be a general way.

On OOS it knows if you are rooted and will download full ROM,so it's fine if you install a/b twrp magisk module after (keeps twrp) and then install magisk to inactive slot .
What happened here is he probably forgot to install twrp and magisk probably got to the wrong slot, hence the wipe

Not only probably. I did not install TWRP after the OTA. And I probably got the Magisk slot right (I installed it to other slot though the manager). Thanks for your help!
So next time:
OTA
Check if all dev USB-settings are enabled (?)
Shut off
Boot to TWRP
Install TWRP
Install Magisk to new slot
Boot up
Seems right?

no.... you do what i wrote like 3 posts up.. DO NOT REBOOT!!
After every single rom flash, TWRP, from android or fastboot or whatever way you install any rom TWRP will be replaced, aswell as boot.img (magisk is there)
OTA
DONT REBOOOOOOTT!!!
go to magisk, search for A/B twrp module, install it
DONT REBOOT
Go to main screen of magisk
install, install, install to inactive slot.
done..
your way will wipe TWRP.
From twrp:
Flash rom zip
flash twrp
reboot to twrp
flash magisk
done

Oh yeah. I completely forgot about that the TWRP retention script exists. Perfect. This is exactly what I did last time. Thanks!

May security update is out

https://developers.google.com/android/images
Still 9.0, but it's starting a new quarterly build so might have some updates. No change log yet
There is this
"All Pixel devices running Android 9 will receive an Android 9 update as part of the May OTA. This quarterly release contains many functional updates and improvements to various parts of the Android platform and supported Pixel devices."

i did clean install of the recovery image this morning. all seems fine. nothing visually different

Has anyone already rooted? With me, the carrier service crashes continuously after I installed Magisk 19.1.

I can't speak to the 3XL since I am on dotOS, but I had no issues installing my wife's P3 with flash-all (minus -w), rooted with Magisk 19.1 and TWRP 3.3.0-0 fully installed using Advanced > Install Recovery Ramdisk method.

Thanks for replay,
I flashed the factory image (minus -w), booted TWRP 3.3.0-1 and installed magisk 19.1 many times but never had luck.
After that i flashed the factory image (minus -w) again, booted TWRP 3.3.0-1 and installed magisk 18.1 and now it worked, after that I was able to update magisk in the app to 19.1.
hopefully it is written understandably.

208.9mb too! Quite large for just a small incremental update too!

considering locking my BL and clean wiping...
google pay no longer works and its fustrating.

Try this first.
Factory reset in TWRP (after installing factory update and rebooting).
You'll have to set up as new but won't lose internal data.

I had some issues getting the May update, TWRP 3.3.0-1, Kirisakura 2.3.0, and Magisk 19.1 to play nicely together. Lots of "rescue party" reboots at the "G" logo of booting after trying to install everything together. I basically did what you did to solve the issue too. Installed the May update (removing -w) then installed TWRP 3.3.0-1, Kirisakura 2.3.0 and Magisk 18.1 and restarted back to system to make sure it all worked (which it did). After that I upgraded to Magisk 19.1 via the Magisk app and everything seems to be fine now. My temp solution until this was just use TWRP 3.2.3-3 which I had been using up until this point. That worked too and allowed everything to play nice from the initial installation.

Aren't you supposed to boot system before flashing magisk?

I was wondering the same thing about whether you finished booting before installing Magisk. I completely boot after every step (Image, TWRP, Magisk, Kernel - ElementalX installed with EX Kernel Manager) and don't stack installs in TWRP. Been doing that for years, and it has saved me some time long term despite the couple of extra minutes during installs. My other thought was possibly a bad 19.1 file.

Looking at new apps to backup in TB, there were about 7 new system apps that I saw and one that had been removed.

since there is an auto reboot after flashing flash-all.bat, I did a reboot after flashing the factory image.

I always reboot to the system after the factory image/monthly update is installed and allow it to finish setup. Then I fastboot into TWRP to install TWRP recovery, my kernel, and Magisk via the "add more zips" option in TWRP. I've been doing this ever since I got the device and never ran into issues until this May update. Doing this with the May update, TWRP 3.3.0-1, Kirisakura 2.3.0 and Magisk 19.1 caused reboots like I described. However, reverting to TWRP 3.2.3-3 instead (my initial solution/fix) or Magisk 18.1 then upgrading Magisk to 19.1 (like @sliding_billy suggested) worked fine. This to me implies a compatibility issue of some type and not an issue with the method of installation.

magisk and gpay dont work after googleplay services version 16.0.91
if i downgrade to 16091 it works - but i cant let it upgrade otherwise it breaks gpay
im not sure if its on all phones or just pixels with the titan chip that GPS is now interacting with, but if you try to upgrade to 17.x google play service with magisk - it doesnt work and detects root.
just FYI for people with issues with updates let it boot into OS before flashing TWRP / KERNEL / MAGISK otherwise you will get a bootloop.
and personally i flash TWRP/KERNEL/Magisk in that order and ive never gotten a bootloop (but have flashing kernel last a couple times)
my rationale behind flashing magisk last is because if you were on stock kernel, you would just flash magisk, you wouldnt flash magisk then stock kernel over it would you?

This is the way Freak recommends flashing his kernel. Did Freak change something?
Freak07 said:
Flash factory image with -w removed (if you want to keep data intact)
Do a reboot
Then you can boot to twrp and flash twrp, magisk and kernel (in that order)
Afterwards all should be fine.
I personally do a reboot after flashing twrp. Then back to twrp and magisk plus kernel...

I always flash kernel before magisk. I've never had issues.

not saying either way is right or wrong
but it makes sense to flash magisk LAST.

Anyone try to sideload the OTA? I believe the file is too big to sideload?

I sideloaded. Worked fine.

Anyone else unable to root the May update? I installed the update, TWRP, and the kernel I use and everything was fine. After installing Magisk 19.1 the phone boots straight to a "System UI has stopped" dialog box. Substratum overlays were uninstalled before updating and uninstalling Magisk fixes the issue, leading me to believe that it is the cause.
I tried installing Magisk 18.1 instead to see if it would work, but oddly it doesn't seem to install at all. When I boot the phone Magisk Manager was installed, but it claims that Magisk is not installed and no apps can get root access.

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
