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!

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?
Hi guys,
Here is my complete foolproof guide on how to update your system. Please note that there may be other maybe easier ways that cut-out some steps but this worked for me. It is intended for Noobies so I apologise to more advanced users if it seems tedious and long-winded. But that's how Noobies like it with everything explained in detail.
IMPORTANT NOTE: If you have previously used parallel apps then before doing any of this process you must delete user 999 from the system, otherwise you backups will not work!!!
From a terminal window (I use terminal emulator from play store ) type su and enter. Now type the command pm remove-user 999 and enter. Now you shouldn't have to worry about parallel apps messing up your backups.
Thanks to @dgunn for this :good:

Also, please note that I have NEVER previously installed an un-official twrp on my device (wanted to wait for official ), however, I was unlocked, and rooted with magisk v16.0 and on stock oos 5.1.5 before beginning this upgrade process.
If you already have an un-official twrp installed, then I cannot guarantee that this guide will work for you. It might, it might not
Disclaimer: This is a guide for helping others. It is your choice to follow it and I take no responsibility for any problems you encounter as a result of following this guide. You do it at your own risk
Ok, lets get started......................
Actually, before we do let's get one thing clear that is confusing a lot of people regarding fastboot and twrp. There are 2 ways of putting twrp recovery onto your phone. A temporary way (disappears after rebooting and goes back to stock recovery) and a permanent way (the best way that stays put - what we all want right?). This guide assumes that you don't currently have twrp on your phone.
In order to put a permanent official twrp on your phone, first we have to boot (NOT flash!) into a temporary version of twrp. The fastboot command for this is "fastboot boot path_to_temporary_twrp.img" (without the quotes of course )
The difference between temporary twrp and permanent twrp is in whether we either fastboot boot or fastboot flash.
Ok, let's begin
First of all, as a precaution, disable all security on your device like pin, pattern, password, fingerprint. Make sure that when you wake your phone it goes straight to the homescreen without any prompts for pins etc etc. May not be needed but it's what I did
1. Download the following files to the following locations....
a. Official oxygen OS 5.1.6 zip file (full zip) > to root of sdcard .
b. Official twrp installer ZIP file > to root of sdcard. (This is our permanent twrp file)
c. Magisk root zip file (I used v 16.0 but v16.4 zip file should be okay too) > to root of sdcard.
d. Official twrp installer IMG file > to your PC in the same folder as your fastboot files. (This is our temporary twrp file)
These files are available for download in other threads on XDA just search for them.
Once that is done proceed as follows.....
2. Go to settings>system updates and click the gear icon in the top right and choose "local upgrade" and then select the Oxygen 5.1.6 zip file from your sdcard. The system will now begin to update itself. Once finished it will prompt you to reboot, do this, and the system will boot back up into Oxygen OS 5.1.6 :good:
3. Now, long press your power button and select reboot and select bootloader option and your phone will reboot into bootloader (fastboot) mode.
4. On your PC go to your fastboot folder and open a command prompt in that folder (don't forget you previously put the temporary twrp image file in here)
5. Now plug your phone into the PC
6. At the command prompt enter following command fastboot devices
and your phone should show up as connected and recognised.
7. We are now going to boot the phone into the temporary twrp. Type the following command fastboot boot <name of temporary twrp file (from your fastboot folder)>.img
8. Your phone will now boot into the temporary twrp recovery and from here we can now flash the permanent version of twrp that we previously put on our sdcard.
9. On your phone, select Install, then find the twrp zip file on the root of your sdcard, select it and swipe to flash.
10. Once this has flashed successfully, we now need to reboot into this new permanent recovery. DO NOT REBOOT TO SYSTEM AT THIS POINT! Now, select "Reboot" option and select "Recovery". Your phone will now reboot into the new permanent twrp. You can now forget about the other temporary twrp from earlier
11. Once the phone goes back into recovery select Install option and find the Magisk root zip file on your sdcard and select it. Now swipe to flash it. After successfully flashing Magisk, you are now ready to enjoy the fruits of your labours
Go back to the twrp homepage and select Reboot>system.
The system will now boot normally and if you have followed these steps to a Tee you will be on OOS 5.1.6 and rooted!
I have also done a successful twrp backup without any error messages. Your previous data will be untouched and you can now set-up your security again.
One final thing to note - because the boot and recovery partitions are now combined, this means that everytime you flash something to your boot partition, your new permanent twrp recovery will be lost and you will have to re-install twrp again from scratch initially through fastboot.
Enjoy

I bet the terminal command should be:
pm remove-user 999
I've made almost the same without problem
After many years of being actively involved in unlocking, flashing, and tinkering. I feel I'm starting from scratch. This quick guide is exactly what I've been waiting for as I'm in the same situation with being simply unlocked and rooted lol. I'll be replicating these steps shortly ?.
Only thing I'm wondering, once everything is done and running... If I flash a rom with the official "permanent" twrp, it's gone gone? Let's just say, renovate ice ROM?
Maybe it's the 16 hour day I worked and lack of sleep... But having it replaced upon a single rom flash and carrying the name "permanent" seems like 2 opposing ideas lol

If you were to flash a full OTA official update then yes, your "permanent" twrp will be gone because the boot partition gets flashed to stock and you'd need to re-install twrp starting in fastboot. However, for custom rom flashes, it depends if their is a kernel bundled in with the rom. If not then twrp should remain, if yes then as with official update, re-install twrp.
It's more normal for a custom rom to simply overwrite system partition without touching boot partition and twrp, but, sometimes custom rom's like Renovate come bundled with a kernel (TBalden's) and wipe out twrp.
If I'm wrong on this I stand to be corrected.

Thank you sir. And great write up btw
Something to note is the Renovate ICE 1.0 magisk module messed with the text in settings on OOS 5.1.6. It went back to normal when I disabled that module.
I thought it was the VoEnabler module initially but I wasnt correct.
I put the zip in the root folder (Not the actual folder named root) but the local upgrade isn't showing anything in there.
I'm on 5.1.5 rooted with Magisk 16.0 and have 5.7 magisk manager installed along with xposed and gravity box.
Any idea why my local upgrade isn't detecting the upgrade zip? I downloaded it from Funk Wizards post. I got clicked the "official" link for OOS 5.1.6
I have a custom kernel and magisk installed, can I still follow this guide?

Figured it out, it was because the ro.product.device=OnePlus 6 instead of OnePlus6 in the build.prop file.
I had originally changed it to sailfish to see if I can get Daydream working. When I changed it back I accidentally added a space =/
Anyone done this on a phone with unofficial TWRP to start out yet?

Yes you can.
Considering that many of us have been rooted with patched boot image and no custom recovery, this guide is very well written.
Simple Guide is Already available | No Root | No Rom
youtube.com/watch?v=a7rh4NpYD7E
I followed the above youtube guide . Very simple .
Steps :
Install VPN app like Surf Easy Android VPN
Change Region to Canada or Germany
Again try to update the Oxygen OS
It will show in update available .

2. Go to settings>system updates and click the gear icon in the top right and choose "local upgrade" and then select the Oxygen 5.1.6 zip file from your sdcard. The system will now begin to update itself. Once finished it will prompt you to reboot, do this, and the system will boot back up into Oxygen OS 5.1.6

After that I got constant reboot with the message " System UI has stopped"

Could be a corrupt download file. I suggest you do the following.....
Re-download the file and check it's good using an MD5 checker app/tool. Then, boot your phone into bootloader (fastboot) mode by powering off first and then pressing and holding the vol up button.
Then follow steps 4-to-10 in my guide for installing (1st) temporary twrp and then (2nd) permanent twrp. Once you have permanent twrp and are booted into it you should then copy the "new" download zip for the OTA that you md5 checked from your PC onto the root of your sdcard and install it by flashing the zip file in twrp. Now you should reboot to system which will change the active slot to the updated OOS you just flashed and then if you want boot back into recovery to flash a custom kernel (if you so wish) and Magisk root zip (again if you so wish).

No issues as such but I'm getting this message everytime I reboot. Any suggestions?
I sucessfully unlocked bootloader, rooted and installed twrp. I was using my phone today and i try to boot to twrp to flash RenovateIce rom and my twrp shows some strange symbols all folders... also on my computer is the same... When i tried to boot to system it just boot up to twrp again.. I cant boot it to my system.. Help please ...
here is screenshot from my pc:
First, you must ask on the Q&A section.
Second your files appears like that because they are crypted ( the password on your phone is used to decrypt it), and as i know (i may be wrong but yes you lost your data) but you need to delete your internal storage now for it to be able to use it like it should, so in twrp delete your internal storage, install your rom via adb sideload, boot and set up your phone and reflash twrp ( via the cmd and then via the zip)
Did you install renovate? You could try to use an otg drive to remove renovate if that is messing your system. They probably have a rescue zip on their forum. You could also try to flash bluspark twrp if that could help you get into your data. Hope you get your data back, otherwise the full format should revive your phone. Read up before (if)you try my suggestions.
hi ,i have fff*cked my op6 many times and i faced this , now go to bootloader and flash twrp from pc cmd or terminal again , boot twrp now u can enter password , good for now u can install sys again or copy your files to another sd card or pc or u can delete data and install system again or just install u can try and learn from your mistake
sorry bad english

Hints
If you need to update TWRP or Magisk, always keep older versions of both in hand(Magisk canary or beta may have issues)
Remove your lockscreen protection which also removes encryption to prebvent mounting issues within TWRP
Before proceeding
Your Windows PC should already recognized your device with the USB cable
Use an USB cable provided with the phone
Make sure your Windows Explorer is set up to have file extensions enabled to avoid file name issues
This process will FORMAT/WIPE/DELETE your internal storage and every file of your phone, so please back it off your device at first!
Also keep a boot.img from your current system in place if anything went wrong so you can flash it via fastboot, see "Rooting without TWRP" for how to get it.
Rooting with TWRP (Android 9/10)
Steps for unlocked bootloader with TWRP AND Root(Magisk)
1. Follow this guide to unlock your Oneplus 7 bootloader(wipes everything on your device, works for OP7 pro and OP7): https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=79741564&postcount=2.
2. Your phones bootloader is now unlocked, leave the phone plugged to your PC
3. Make sure you have enabled USB-Debugging and Advanced Reboot under developer options(see step 1 how to enable it all) again after the first boot of the wiped device, since this gets reset
4. Copy the latest "TWRP installer ZIP" and "Magisk ZIP" to the phones internal storage.
5. Copy the "TWRP IMG" to the "platform-tools" folder from step 1.
6. Open command window or PowerShell window again if you did not closed it before within the "platform-tools" folder from step 1
7. Type
Code:
adb devices
to see if your device is connected and recognized sucessfully by your PC.
8. Type
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
to reboot to fastboot mode.
9. Type
Code:
fastboot boot recoveryimgfilename.img
to temporary boot TWRP, where recoveryimgfilename.img is the name of your downloaded TWRP *.img file, so watch your file name!.
10. Enter your screen lock PIN within TWRP if you have set it up before.
11. Allow modifications.
12. Now you have temporary booted twrp recovery. To make it stick permanently you need to flash the "TWRP installer ZIP" from your phones storage from step 4.
13. Hit "install" and navigate to the "TWRP installer ZIP" file and select it for installation(dont boot the system now!).
14. Go back and flash "Magisk ZIP" the same way as for TWRP Zip otherwise your device will not boot!
15. Thats all, you can unplug the USB cable and boot the device to your system. Your device is now bootloader unlocked with TWRP and Magisk:highfive:
Steps for unlocked bootloader with TWRP WITHOUT Root(Magisk)
1. Follow this guide to unlock your Oneplus 7 bootloader(wipes everything on your device, works for OP7 pro and OP7): https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=79741564&postcount=2.
2. Your phones bootloader is now unlocked, leave the phone plugged to your PC
3. Make sure you have enabled USB-Debugging and Advanced Reboot under developer options(see step 1 how to enable it all) again after the first boot of the wiped device, since this gets reset
4. Copy the latest "TWRP IMG" to the phones internal storage.
5. Copy the latest "TWRP IMG" to the "platform-tools" folder from step 1.
6. Open command window or PowerShell window again if you did not closed it before within the "platform-tools" folder from step 1
7. Type
Code:
adb devices
to see if your device is connected and recognized sucessfully by your PC.
8. Type
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
to reboot to fastboot mode.
9. Type
Code:
fastboot boot recoveryimgfilename.img
to temporary boot TWRP, where recoveryimgfilename.img is the name of your downloaded TWRP *.img file, so watch your file name!.
10. Enter your screen lock PIN within TWRP if you have set it up before.
11. Allow modifications.
12. Now you have temporary booted twrp recovery. To make it stick permanently you need to flash the "TWRP IMG" from your phones storage from step 4
13. Navigate to advanced menu within TWRP, click on "Install Recovery Ramdisk" and select the "TWRP IMG". This will patch the boot image which does Magisk otherwise.
14. Thats all, you can unplug the USB cable and boot the device to your system. Your device is now bootloader unlocked with TWRP:highfive:

Rooting without TWRP (Android 9/10/11)
Also useful to get stock recovery and kernel --> Recovery is within boot.img on A/B devices like OP7
Refer here for unlocking the bootloader.
1. Download the payload dumper tool to your PC from here and extract it
2. Download the FULL OxygenOS Rom zip(The version your phone is running) and extract the payload.bin
3. Put payload.bin to "payload_input" folder o the extracted tool
4. Run payload_dumper.exe from the tool's folder
5. Extracted img files are in "payload_output" folder
6. Now you have your own boot.img for your Rom
7. Copy it to your phone
8. Patch the boot.img with Magisk directly on your device: Magisk Manager App -> hit install after your Magisk version -> hit "Select and Patch a file"
9. Copy the patched boot.img (it should be in the Download folder of your device named something like "magisk_patched-22100_bjjRn.img") back to your PC
10. Reboot your device to fastboot
11. Flash the patched magisk_patched-22100_bjjRn.img

Update your rooted OxygenOS (Android 9/10)Steps for UPDATE OxygenOS via OTA and keep unlocked bootloader, TWRP, Root(Magisk)
1. [OPTIONAL, but highly recommended]Backup everything in case of issues!
2. Go to Magisk Manager App and uninstall all modules
2.1 [Optional]: For some modules(read those instructions) you should do an reboot now, then proceed
3. Go to Android settings -> system -> system update and hit "Download & Install Now", don't reboot yet!
4. (not for Android 11)Flash "TWRP ZIP" within Magisk Manager App like a Module: Magisk Manager App -> Menu -> Modules "+". This installs TWRP to both a/b partitions.

@strongst you should maybe write in your guide that magisk flash is a must! Without phone won't boot if it's stock.
There are a lot of people who wanna flash TWRP without magisk. I don't know why they do that it makes no sense for me.

I made it a little bit more clear, thanks, that's an common issue across several devices and requested often enough
Thank you for the quick tutorial. For me it looks very similar to the procedure with the OnePlus 5, am I right?
Does this indicate, that an EFS Backup is also to create the same way? https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/how-to/oneplus-5-unlock-bootloader-flash-twrp-t3624877

There's something different after unlocking the bootloader(which is the same). Twrp and magisk installation is different due to treble.
For EFS you can backup with twrp or local terminal
dd if=/dev/block/sdf2 of=/sdcard/modemst1.bin bs=512
Thanks for the guide, my OnePlus 7 came with 9.5.5 and I want to clean flash to the latest 9.5.8. I have already unlocked the bootloader, boot into TWRP and installed TWRP, are these the correct steps to flash 9.5.8 as I'm confused with the A/B partition?
1. Wipe data, cache, system and internal storage
2. Flash 9.5.8 signed flashable zip
3. Flash kernel and Magisk or the other way round?

3. Flash twrp installer zip with current twrp
4. Flash magisk zip with current twrp
5. Reboot
Make sure not to FORMAT internal data, otherwise you wipe the files you want to flash as it formats sdcard

Thanks, so I boot into TWRP first and then do step 1 and 2? Also, which step should I flash custom kernel?

You need to do all steps. I recommend to flash the custom kernel when you've sucessfully booted the device at first.
Hi, a new OP7 User here. I wanted to know how can i keep my data decrypted? i have installed TWRP but i want to decrypt my data and also keep it the same after updated newer updates. Is it possible? I was able to do it on my OP3T, so wanted to know if its possible on OP7 as well

I think i messed up real bad, now when iam booting the phone, a message comes, your device is corrupt. It can't be trusted and will not boot.

That message is the bootloader unlocked warning and comes every time as soon as you unlocked the bootloader.
Flashing DM verity patch can only be done when you format internal storage which wipes everything of your internal storage. You can't "decrypt" your existing data permanently with this.

Sadly it didn't worked, as phone doesn't gets detected on pc, keeps on rebooting. Gave it to service center and they are also not able to solve it ??. So a replacement for me ?
Edit : i think the force decryption was the culprit. When i rebooted, system was crashing. Op3t had its specific force decrypt file, not a general one, So i think as the development moves forward, op7 will also get it's own. Hoping the best ?

This file also works on OP7 pro, so it should also work on normal op7. I think the issue comes from something other.

Then there must be some issue with my flashing sequence. Btw, The service centre repaired the issue and i have rooted it and using bluespark with stock rom. I'll give the zip another try later on when a new update comes. Thanks for the help
I believe the default file system is ext4, is there any benefits changing it to f2fs?

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.
