Finally? Dude the phone has been out like 3 days in the US and less than 2 weeks I believe anywhere else.
Get some patience maybe.

Is this still a temporary recovery or does this method make TWRP your permanent recovery?

You need to flash TWRP-installer in TWRP, if you want permanent recovery.

Thaaank you very much!

so will making twrp permanent remove the a/b partition? that means i can't flash a/b compatible roms?

There is really a lot of files in there. Which img should I boot into for the twrp?

There is a textfile in chinese (i assume) which I let go through google translate:
textfile
Maybe this will give some new information:
Code:
One plus six use ab partition, bring a lot of inconvenience to the brush, temporarily suggest less toss
One, unlock BootLoader (pay attention to backup data)
1. Developer Options Open OEM Unlock
2. Enter the fastboot mode: adb reboot bootloader
3. Unlock: fastboot oem unlock
The mobile phone prompts whether to unlock, the volume key selects Yes, the power button confirms
4 wait to boot
Second, brush into the specific boot
1. The disk boot folder has many types of boot
Introduction:
Official boot: the official original boot, recovery mode for the official recovery
Twrp boot: After brushing into recovery mode becomes twrp
Boot-with-magisk: automatically install migisk after brushing, recovery mode is official recovery, need to install magisk apk
Twrp boot-with-magisk: automatically install migisk after brushing, recovery mode is twrp, need to install magisk apk
name:
For example, boot-180513-h2os.img is based on the hydrogen OS 180513 version, be sure to match the use
Other files are similarly named
2. Brushing method
Enter the fastboot mode: adb reboot bootloader
Brush into the boot partition (boot.img is the path to the file being flushed into)
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
or
Fastboot flash boot_a boot.img
Fastboot flash boot_b boot.img
3. Restart
Fastboot reboot
Third, fastboot brush
Network disk fastboot flashable folder stored fastboot mode can be brushed into the img file
For example, you want to brush the system.img to the system partition (system.img is the path to the file you are working on)
Fastboot flash system system.img
or
Fastboot flash system_a system.img
Fastboot flash system_b system.img
For example, you want to brush the vendor.img to the vendor partition (vendor.img is the path to the file to be scanned)
Fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
or
Fastboot flash vendor_a vendor.img
Fastboot flash vendor_b vendor.img
Fourth, twrp card brush official ROM reserved twrp method
Twrp card brush official ROM brush common patch /twrp folder under the patch package
Note, twrp card brush official ROM, in fact, brush into the current partition does not start, after brushing is complete, activate the partition, restart after running this partition, but at this time twrp run in the current boot partition, need to restart the system into twrp Or restart the recovery mode into twrp, restart the boot partition and the partition started at this time is consistent, brush into the patch for the current boot partition has a role, otherwise the patch package is likely to be brushed into the next boot does not start Partition
Fifth, install magisk
If it is fastboot brush boot, directly brush into the boot with magisk
If it is twrp card brush official ROM, card brush twrp patch, restart twrp or restart boot into twrp, and then brush the patch under the commonly used patch / magisk folder
Six, install the supersu
Twrp card brush official ROM, card brush twrp patch, restart twrp or restart boot into twrp, and then brush the patch / supersu folder patch, even the computer input adb disable-verify, prompt Successfully disabled verity, restart
Seven, install xposed
If you have installed magisk, install xposed directly in magisk
If you have already brushed supersu according to the above method, add the official xposed patch and restart it.
Eight, third-party ROM
Temporarily unknown
Nine, expand the extension
Interested friends are expected to notice that you can choose to brush img into the _a or _b partition in the tutorial of brushing the img into the corresponding partition.
So how do we know if our phone is currently using a partition or b partition?
1.twrp mode, restart, there will be shown below
2. System mode, adb shell getprop ro.boot.slot_suffix
If _a is a partition, _b is partition b
AB Division, except for Google’s mobile phone, it is rare to see other mobile phones use,,,
So there are few methods related to playing online games,,,

You can't flash the recovery image... It boots up slowly into the OS, and that's it. Guess we will have to wait a little longer

The TWRP of OP6 looks like Google Pixel this time

Thanks!!!
But which version (file) do I need for Oxygen OS 5.1.5?
In each filename is someting with h2o-rom?

Advanced OTA keeping Magisk and TWRP (needs a computer)

History...
I originally wrote this guide to upgrade from 10.0.4.0 to 10.0.7.0.
I have also used this same guide to install every OTA from 10.0.7.0 to 11.0.11.0.
This guide assumes you have both Magisk and TWRP, that Magisk cannot "uninstall" (because of TWRP installation) and that you want to keep both Magisk and TWRP after installation. Parts of this guide may still be useful if you aren't in this exact situation.
If you only have Magisk, you should be able to follow these much simpler instructions: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/how-to/guide-install-magisk-proper-support-ota-t3836952
Things to have on hand:
- vanilla_boot.img (for the version you currently have)
- patched_boot.img (your current boot image with Magisk)
- TWRP img and zip (see version info below)
I think that TWRP also causes the vendor partition to be modified. It may also touch system but I have a modified bootanimation.zip which modifies system, so I can't be sure. In any case, I also have a backup of system.img and vendor.img.
Because Magisk is installed after TWRP, Magisk's "backup" of the "stock boot image" is not vanilla. This means that in order to take the OTA, I have to flash the vanilla boot image.
0 - Update your patched_boot.img
If you don't have a patched_boot.img for your current Magisk (eg. my patched_boot.img was old, since I had installed several Magisk updates), you should build a new patched_boot.img so that when you boot it, the system will continue to work.
Push the vanilla image to the phone.
Code:
adb push vanilla_boot.img /sdcard
Then get Magisk to install using the "Select and Patch a File" method, select the file you uploaded. Then pull down the patched image.
Code:
adb pull /sdcard/Download/magisk_patched.img patched_boot.img
1 - Prepare to OTA
For some reason, my carrier does not like the OTA process so I always turn on Airplane mode + Wifi.
Get to fastboot and check the current slot.
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot getvar current-slot
My current slot was b
Flash the system and vendor partitions (if necessary).
Code:
fastboot flash system_b vanilla_system.img
fastboot flash vendor_b vanilla_vendor.img
Flash vanilla and boot the patched image (so that Magisk is active and the OTA can be applied).
Code:
fastboot flash boot_b vanilla_boot.img
fastboot boot patched_boot.img
2 - Do the OTA
Install OTA (DO NOT REBOOT)
If the OTA fails
If the OTA fails, you can find out which partitions it doesn't like from the logcat. If you have a fastboot image, you can reflash the affected partitions. As previously mentioned, I've had to flash all of boot, vendor and system for each OTA.
Code:
adb logcat | grep update_engine
...

3 - Backup the vanilla boot image
Note that you need to pull from the other slot (in my case, a).
Code:
adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/block/by-name/boot_a of=/sdcard/vanilla_boot.img bs=1024k
Backup system.img and vendor.img too (if required).
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/by-name/system_a of=/sdcard/vanilla_system.img bs=1024k
dd if=/dev/block/by-name/vendor_a of=/sdcard/vanilla_vendor.img bs=1024k
4 - Magisk patch the other slot
Use Magisk to "Install to Inactive Slot (After OTA)" (DO NOT REBOOT)
5 - Backup the patched boot image
Note that you need to pull from the other slot (in my case, a).
Code:
dd if=/dev/block/by-name/boot_a of=/sdcard/patched_boot.img bs=1024k
exit
exit
# back on your computer
adb pull /sdcard/vanilla_boot.img
adb pull /sdcard/patched_boot.img
Pull down system and vendor images too (if required).
Code:
adb pull /sdcard/vanilla_system.img
adb pull /sdcard/vanilla_vendor.img
Now you can let Magisk reboot. This is the moment of truth...
At this point you should have an upgraded, Magisk-enabled system and backups of the vanilla and patched boot images. Congratulations on completing the OTA!
If the system fails to boot
There's a few things to try before giving up if the system fails to boot...
1) Boot without Magisk (fastboot boot vanilla_boot.img). Probably indicates that a Magisk module you have is no longer compatible.
2) Boot TWRP (fastboot boot twrp.img) and poke at things. As an example, I used the /sdcard/mm program (part of Magisk Manager for recovery) to disable EdXposed when the OTA to Android 10 failed to boot.
6 - Restore TWRP
It is possible to boot TWRP from fastboot so you don't strictly need to install TWRP. I like to have it available anyway.
Old version info...
I had been using the official TWRP 3.2.3, which worked great up until 10.0.9.0. With 10.0.9.0, I couldn't get to TWRP, I just got the system destroyed screen. I could fastboot boot it, but it couldn't mount /data (a problem it has always had).
I figured out that TWRP 3.3.1-dees_troy (from the official TWRP site) works with 10.0.9.0 and up. What's more, it works (can decrypt /data) if you fastboot boot it, not just after install. So you could in theory simply not install TWRP and fastboot boot if in the event that you actually need it.
I know that people have their own favourite versions, with the offain version being popular (didn't work for me). There's OrangeFox too (also didn't work for me).
In summary, I recommend Official TWRP 3.3.1-dees_troy but if you have a favourite alternative, feel free to use it instead.
TWRP thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/development/official-twrp-daisy-t3855396
Download link: https://dl.twrp.me/daisy/
Restoring TWRP is the same as installing it the first time. This is the process that I use.
Flash vanilla boot, then install TWRP to it.
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-dees_troy-daisy.img
Install TWRP
Code:
adb push twrp-installer-3.3.1-dees_troy-daisy.zip /sdcard
Use TWRP to install twrp-installer-3.3.1-dees_troy-daisy.zip
I install my modified bootanimation.zip at this time.
Mount System from TWRP (it is normally already mounted for me).
From a shell:
Code:
adb shell
cd /sdcard
cp bootanimation.zip /system/system/media/bootanimation.zip
Umount System
You must re-install Magisk after installing TWRP.
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot boot patched_boot.img
Use Magisk to "Direct Install (Recommended)"
Reboot
For some reason, my carrier does not like the OTA process so at this point I normally power off the phone rather than just rebooting. When the phone boots, I can turn off airplane mode and check that a mobile data connection can be made.
7 - Confirm that everything works
Make sure the system comes up and Magisk Manager says that Magisk is installed.
Make sure you can get to TWRP. Boot while holding VOL+ or
Code:
adb reboot recovery
Make sure TWRP can see your files.
Congratulations! You have installed an OTA while keeping Magisk and TWRP!
8 - Backup boot.img with TWRP + Magisk (optional)
If you want a copy of the boot.img with both Magisk and TWRP. This pulls from the now-current slot (in my case, a). I'm not totally sure of the value of this, since I can't get fastboot to boot this image. It may come in handy if you upgrade TWRP and that breaks (since you can flash this back rather than having to install the old TWRP again).
Code:
adb shell
su
cd /sdcard
dd if=/dev/block/by-name/boot_a of=twrp_boot.img bs=1024k
exit
exit
# back on the computer
adb pull /sdcard/twrp_boot.img

Thanks. Could you upload or indicate where we can get the necessary files?

Will i loose all user data and internal storage wiped if i do this?

Thanks for sharing, looks complicated, also i think you should use a fixed twrp, since the official dont have acces to sdcard.

If you have Magisk, you should already have the vanilla and patched boot.img files.
Of you don't already have Magisk, just follow the install procedure here. https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/how-to/guide-install-magisk-proper-support-ota-t3836952
If you're running 10.0.4.0 without magisk and need to extract your vanilla boot.img. Use fastboot to boot into twrp and then you can do the DD command to extract boot. Use adb pull to save it to PC.
I used official TWRP from here.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/development/official-twrp-daisy-t3855396
Apparently there's a different twrp that can access the external SD card. I don't have an external SD card so I don't need it.

I didn't lose any data.
I've never had a problem with Magisk. TWRP does tend to bootloop after install, which is why I install magisk again.
You should be able to flash the patched or vanilla boot if twrp is boot looping to fix it too. Just won't have twrp anymore.

Mind you. I have a backup of my apps and data that's off of my phone so even if I do need to factory reset I can get it back. That's a longer and more complicated guide.

Before I had twrp the standard Magisk ota process was enough. But that loses twrp and with twrp in my magsik backup, the uninstall didn't work. So extra steps are needed. Plus some extra steps to make backups of important files for the next OTA

Hmm... This may not be the case. I'm careful to make backups but it's easy to skip this.
If you don't have a patched boot image you can backup your current boot partition from a root shell. You need to find out if you are booting a or b slot. Then
dd if=/dev/block/by-name/boot_a of=/sdcard/patched_boot.img bs=1024k
Magisk puts old stock backups into /data. I had 4 files in there which makes it hard to know what each file is.
That's why I made sure to backup my vanilla boot image immediately.
If you're stuck without a vanilla 10.0.4.0 boot you can't do the OTA. I can upload mine somewhere when I get home tonight if it's not already online.

Here is the backup I made of the 10.0.4.0 vanilla boot.img. You'll need to decompress this before flashing.
URL REMOVED

What's new on 10.0.7.0 bro? Should me wait for 10.1 update if im on 10.0.4.0 rooted?

10.0.7.0 has the March security patches. I haven't noticed any actual changes.

Thank you, your Linux commands are sick, I never know I can get the vanilla and patched boot.img like that.
Cheer~

is there an update for file version 10.0.8.0??

I only just got the notification this morning. I'll do the upgrade tonight but I expect the same process will work.

I just used the same process to go from 10.0.7.0 to 10.0.8.0. This time I was installing to slot b instead of slot a, but otherwise, things were the same.
A side note... I hadn't got around to installing TWRP 3.3.0 so I did that but it couldn't mount /data. TWRP 3.2.3 can mount /data, so I installed that again.

I have successfully updated to 10.0.8.0 with Magisk 18.1, now on Magisk 19.1, everything is running fine. I'd like to also install TWRP but refrain from doing so because of the problems (bootloops, crashes, etc) the official TWRP 3.2.3 shows with decryption in Pie and mounting external or even internal sdcard. I wonder if the latter is fixed in the inofficial fixed version. I think the benefit of TWRP is not worth the effort of repeating a1291762 wonderful tricky procedure on the monthly OTA update basis.
However the procedure is very smart, a back-to-the-roots approach of former days... great, I like it.
But I don't understand how a patched_boot.img can be created from an empty file (boot_a)?
[dd if=/dev/block/by-name/boot_a of=patched_boot.img bs=1024k] Locating the boot_a in </dev/block/by-name/> reveals a boot_a file with 0 bytes. Moreover, to unzip the zipped stock boot Image in </data/stock_boot*.img> or </sbin/.magisk/mirror/data/> I am looking for a command that just returns the boot file rather than expanding it to the full partition. Weird, can anybody help?
Thanks again to a1291762

I use official TWRP 3.2.3. Only really to fix bootloop problems.
I don't have a SD and no problems mounting data.
Lots of people following the TWRP install guide seem to get bootloop. I solve that by patching boot with Magisk. Some people recommend installing an old about image.
If you have a backup of boot you can at least restore that if you have problems.

Welcome to Unix, where nearly everything is a file.
Hard disk? /dev/sda
Partition? /dev/sda1
File? /mnt/sda1/file.txt
In this case, boot_a is a way to access a partition on the phone's flash. Actually a link (shortcut) to /dev/mmcblk0p52. Partition number 53 on flash chip 1. The size can't be seen because it's a device and not a file.

dd is a command to read a device. The partition is 64M big so that's the size of the file. gzip can compress well because the actual image is only 24M big and the rest is empty.
Magisk knows how to do it. A tool called magiskboot but I don't know where it lives or how to run it.
I found this header from magiskboot. It shows how the boot.img is structured.
https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/blob/master/native/jni/magiskboot/bootimg.h

I just did the 10.0.9.0 OTA. I added a section of updating your patched_boot.img (since the Magisk updates I did made my old one useless) and I changed the backup instructions due to changes in Magisk 19. If you know where the stock boot lives before reboot, please let me know.

everything fine with keystore make sure u using latest recovery & using A10 keystore

Ahh...booting into recovery even if i press system

@arksolitude is that because you are trying to install android 10 for realme c2? if yes...
1. download stockrecovery.img (or get the recovery.img from the zip file you've downloaded)
2. reboot to bootloader/fastboot
3. type in your computer "fastboot flash recovery (name of the file).img"
4. reboot (this will take you to stock recovery)
5. wipe data and reboot
this is from my experience but this should work

PREREQUISITS:
An unpatched Stock Boot.img running on your device
General knowledge and understanding of ADB and Fastboot
Download latest op8, op8p, or op8t Horizon Kernel img from [e.g., op8p_7.img]:
https://dl.akr-developers.com/?dir=oneplus/horizon_kernel/R/images
Download latest Magisk Canary build from Github [e.g., app-debug.apk]:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/topjohnwu/magisk_files/canary/app-debug.apk
DEVICE/PC OPERATIONS:
→ ADB
Enumerate devices
Code:
adb devices
Boot into Fastboot
Code:
reboot bootloader
→ FASTBOOT
Enumerate devices
Code:
fastboot devices
Determine the current slot (A/B), whichever slot you're on should be the "good" img
Code:
fastboot getvar current-slot
Boot with the custom kernel downloaded from Horizon to use root [NOTE: Include the full path of the img if not in the same directory]
e.g., fastboot boot "C:\Users\User\Downloads\op8p_R7.img"​
Code:
fastboot boot xxxxxxx.img
→ ADB
Copy the boot.img from each slot to the root of the device
Code:
adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/block/sde11 of=/sdcard/boot_a.img
dd if=/dev/block/sde35 of=/sdcard/boot_b.img
→ Android Device [NOTE: Some Android 11 devices experience patching issues on the Beta Channel like bootloop] [NOTE: Some users experience issues on Canary like no SIM detected; if so switch to Beta]
Install Magisk app-debug.apk (Canary)
Go to Settings → Update Channel → Canary
Go to Home → Install → Install → Select and Patch A File
Navigate to internal storage and select the stock boot.img [choose the img from whichever slot you're on]
When it’s done patching copy the file, named magisk_patched.img, from the root → Downloads of your device to PC
→ ADB
Code:
reboot bootloader
→ FASTBOOT
Test to ensure it boots before flashing; if not you'll need to patch the other img
Code:
fastboot boot magisk_patched.img
→ Android Device
If the device boots and you have root in the Magisk Manager app, reboot the device into Fastboot then flash the active slot [NOTE: Both slots do not need to be flashed; just the current active slot]
→ FASTBOOT
Flash the patched image file [NOTE: Include the full path of the img if not in the same directory]
e.g., fastboot flash boot_b "C:\Users\User\Downloads\magisk_patched.img"
Code:
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img
fastboot reboot
- OR -​
Code:
fastboot flash boot_a magisk_patched.img
fastboot reboot
- OR -​
Code:
fastboot flash boot_b magisk_patched.img
fastboot reboot
ADDITIONAL RESOURSES:
→ FASTBOOT
If you need to set the other slot to be the active slot use:
Code:
fastboot --set-active=a
- OR -​
Code:
fastboot --set-active=b
→ ADB
ADB Magisk Bootloop Fix
Code:
adb shell
magisk --remove-modules
→ OTA Help
Magisk stock boot.img missing fix [NOTE: Android 11 onwards, the /sbin folder might not exist, so Magisk will randomly create a folder under /dev and use it as the base folder]
Rename to: stock_boot_0.img
Compress with gzip = stock_boot_0.img.gz
Copy stock_boot_0.img.gz file to the root of: /data
Edit the config file: /dev/xxxxxxx/.magisk/config → Change SHA1= to 0
Magisk Manager → Uninstall Magisk → Restore Images
→ ADB
Determine the random folder name generated by Magisk on Android 11+
Code:
ls -laR /dev | grep '.magisk/rootdir'
→ ADB
Determine the Boot Image partition location [NOTE: Will list all partitions; look for boot_a and boot_b]
Code:
ls /dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/ -all

Tried some other way on android 11 but failed, so back to android 10.
maybe i won't get android 11 until TWRP is work.
can't easily backup data without root is very annoying, thanks for the work!

I have followed every step, but root only last until I restart my Oneplus.
What am I doing wrong? Why want the device stay rooted?

Guessing here, but have a second look at these two commands:
Code:
fastboot boot magisk_patched.img
△ This will NOT flash the rooted image, it will only boot up once so you can test it or use it for temporary root
verses
Code:
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img
▲ This will flash the rooted image and is used after you've tested the patched image to be sure it doesn't bootloop and to have persistent root

If I use this Horizon kernel to boot with root on 11.0.4.4, could I use directly Magisk 22.0 to root the device permanently? Thanks in advance.

I only use the Horizon to boot then grab my kernel to patch with Magisk. You could use the Horizon kernel, but you would have to flash it, not just boot it. So, root device, backup stock dtbo, flash Horizon & dtbo, re-root if lost during flash. I would recommend against that until there's a custom recovery available in case there were any issues. Additionally, you must backup your stock dtbo if you ever want to return to stock. You should visit the Horizon thread for more details, but again if you're not familiar with kennel mods you might not want to start learning on a device without a custom recovery.

I'd like only to root my device, remaining as more stock as possible, for now. If I want to avoid using a custom kernel (also for the rooting process), should I extract the boot.img with Python, then patch it with Magisk 22? Thanks in advance for your reply, but I'm coming from a Xiaomi that was quite easier to root

Just follow the steps above -- that'll get you a stock kernel (your current kernel) patched with Magisk and permanently rooted. The above process is only using the Horizon kernel to boot your device with root so that you can extract your kernel and patch it. The final result will be as stock as you can get with root.

Hey everyone. OP8 Pro user here. Just took OTA going from 11.0.9.9 running Magisk Canary 23 to the newest 11.0.10.10. I restored images before taking the OTA and reinstalled magisk to the other slot like I always do to retain root. Ive now lost root and am trying to boot the last two versions of the Horizon kernel. Ive tried the two latest ones (r9.2 and r9.2.1 from February 2021) and while they do boot my phone, I cant get SU access to extract the stock images.
Anything else that anyone things I should try? All i want from Christmas is root.

Isn't there a more easy way to obtain root?
That's strange. I use OnePlus smartphones with LineageOS for years now and cannot remember to execute such a complicated procedure. Just now I got a OnrPlus 8, installed LineageOS and Magisk and restored my apps with Titanium. So, it definitely worked.
Now, after a Lineage system update, root is gone.
Unfortunately I cannot tell exactly how I installed Magisk. I have a very poor memory. Think I just installed the app and said either just "install" or patched the zip with TRWP
But I definitely never downloaded or extracted any boot image manually.
Has anyone an explanation for this?
Even more strange: I just tried to flash magisk.zip again with TRWP. Now it tells me
"Magisk patched boot image detected"
and later:
"Failed to mount '/system_root' (Device or resource busy)"
After reboot the Magisk app now offers me three choices in the install tab:
- choose a file and patch (only this one existed before)
- direct installation (recommended)
- install into inactive slot (after OTA)
I don't understand the last one and tried the recommendet one.
Now, root is there again. Do I have to do this after each update? With my OnePlus5 I didn't.

Unfortunately I have another problem with my OnePlus8 and Lineage:
I'm using AdAway which replaces the hosts file, but on my OP8 it cannot.
"Unable to cppy the hosts file to /System partition. Please check if the Magisk Systemless module is active"
What does it mean? The Magisk app says: "ramdisk yes"

LineageOS is not the stock ROM so it's slightly different and not covered in this thread.

Thank you, CarvedArt. I wasn't aware of this.

Does anyone have the latest stable Android 13 patched boot image for the IN2015 that they can share with me ?

Magisk & Lineage = No wifi

Goodmorning everyone. I have a problem with magisk and lineageos 18.1
I have a xiaomi mi mix 2 unlocked
Premise: I've never had any problems with magisk and lineage until now.
I installed magisk scrupulously following the official instructions and using both the boot.img patch system and the direct installation via recovery (adb sideload & lineage recovery)
In both cases magisk appears as not installed when looking from magisk manager and the wifi stops working (the phone connects to the various networks I have tried but reveals them as without internet.)
clearing cache does nothing
resetting network connections does nothing
Updating to the latest version of the radio firmware does nothing
restore boot.img OR reinstall lineage corrects the problem
In all cases I don't get root ...
Honestly, everything is beyond my understanding .. can you help me?

It seems to me like you aren't properly flashing the patched boot.img. What method are you using to flash the patched boot.img?

I used both the method I'm aware of
1) I install magisk manager, extract the boot.img from lineage zip, upload it to the phone, patch it with magisk manager (operation ends fine), pass the modified version back to the pc reboot the phone in recovery and install the new boot with adb (installation ends correctly).
2) I rename the magisk app as .zip and then I install it through recovery
The result is the same.
In the past (with lineage 17) i always used the second method and I lived happy and with root for years.

Since you have TWRP, you don't need the patched boot.img.
The Magisk Manager app has the root binaries built in now, all you should need to do is a Magisk Manager flashable zip.
Read this:
The Magisk Manager APK can now be flashed from within TWRP
Magisk is now distributed as part of the Manager APK, meaning you no longer need to flash a separate ZIP file from a custom recovery.

You said that you converted the apk into a flashable zip. I think you should be able to find a MagiskManager.zip that is prepackaged for you to download and flash.
Also, if you use the patched boot.img method, you should rename the patched boot.img to "boot.img", then place the boot.img in your fastboot folder on PC. Then right click inside the fastboot folder and choose the option to open a cmd terminal, then boot your device into fastboot mode, connect your device to PC, type the following command:
fastboot devices(press enter)
If it returns a serial number, you are connected. Next, type the following command:
fastboot flash boot boot.img(press enter)
This should flash the patched boot.img correctly. Then reboot the device to system and try installing the Magisk Manager apk file from your internal storage instead of flashing it as a zip in recovery. If that doesn't work, try flashing the apk as a zip in recovery, wipe cache and dalvik cache after flashing the zip(DO NOT FACTORY RESET OR FORMAT ANYTHING), then reboot to system and see if it works correctly.

Hi Droidriven, thank you for your answers. Perhaps, synthesizing my steps too much, I gave the impression of not being particularly capable in computer science (you even tell me to press "enter" after commands ...). Well, let's say it's not my case.
All steps are performed correctly.
all steps end without errors.
No matter what I do, in the end Magisk appears as n / a, I don't have root, and the data connection doesn't work. Small addition about the latter aspect: when rebooting the wifi connection works for a variable time between 10 and 20 seconds, after which the network appears as without internet (or intranet) but the phone remains connected.
At the reboot, history repeats itself
Restoring the original boot everything returns to normal.
