Oxygen updater just made the Open Beta available

As the title says but I think using the OTA maybe a mistake because did not One Plus say going from the Open Beta to the released version of Android 10 will require you to wipe your device ?

If I can be sure going from Open Beta to Android 10 will not require a wipe I would go to the beta, otherwise waiting a few weeks will not kill me.

What do you mean? Open Beta 1 for the OnePlus 7 Pro is Android 10. Going from stable to open beta doesn't require a wipe, just going from open beta to stable does. It's recommended to wipe, just because Android 10 introduced a new partition system, but you don't have to unless you have issues. I went from stable to DP4, DP5, and Open Beta 1 just fine without wiping (dirty flash over stable), but it's HIGHLY RECOMMENDED to flash the downgrade zip if going from Open Beta to stable, because of the partition differences.

I got an "update" on Oxygen Updater... It says : Update to ob1

Anyone have a link to 10.3.3.0 global stable recovery ROM (PEEMIXM)?

I found the 10.3.2.0 (global stable, PEEMIXM) recovery ROM on GetDroidTips and updated with it last night, but I have been getting the notification for 10.3.3.0 for about a month now. Does anyone know where to get a recovery ROM for 10.3.3.0 for the Mi Mix 3? For clarification my Mix 3 is rooted hence why I can't just use the OTA. Or is there a way to use the OTA to update that I am unaware of? I tried to flash one through TWRP when I was still on 10.2.2.0 and it instantly failed.
Thanks!

To flash in TWRP should I be using the ZIP version or fastboot version?

The OTA zip. Fastboot is for using the Xiaomi MiFlash or fastboot tool from computers.

Okay thanks!

Just an FYI - I am a Global Beta tester, and there were bugs in a number of the updates for a while that would mess up the vendor partition if you flashed it from TWRP instead of from the stock recovery, even with the full size OTA file. I haven't seen that now that they got done with the Global Beta and switched to Stable Beta Pilot Team, but wanted to provide fair warning, if you have that problem after flashing an OTA from TWRP, the only fix I found was to download the Fastboot version and re-flash with Mi Flash, but make sure not to relock your bootloader, ESPECIALLY if you have CN device like I do.

Thanks for the heads up. I'm on global stable, is the issue just for global beta? Also if I wind up switching to global beta, which I was considering, is it worth doing a complete reflash with MiFlash for every update? Wouldn't be ideal but better than bootlooping

Global Beta isn't a thing anymore. I've never seen the corruption happen on stable, but someone did report it. If you were to install beta at this point you'd be getting 3+ month old software as Xiaomi killed global beta.

Move from beta to most recent stable ?

Rooted and magisk installed on beta 9, is it possible to go back to most recent stable firmware with out downgrading first?

Just download stable version , place on root and update localy

Tried and installer said couldn't install because firmware is lower then installed ....but then oxygen updated wasn't granted root permission

I needed to use MSMTool... It was a pain in the arse... Check around XDA how to use this MSMTool, there are some tutorials around.
Edit: sorry, forgot to mention that it will downgrade and wipe all your data.

MSM tool to any version.

Need help with updating to latest OS

I recently downgraded from OS beta 16 to OS 9.5.2. Now I want to upgrade to the latest one OS 10.3.3. i even downloaded the full version. but when trying to install it says failed.

Good evening mate,
well, in your case, you should just use the MSMTools. It's a software which we can use to install any version of the OOS, but obviously, each version flashes the build it was built for.
Just go to this thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-7/how-to/op7-unbrick-tool-to-restore-device-to-t3954325/
thanks to @Some_Random_Username
There, you should see some spoiler buttons, just choose the one you want, download the software and then follow the instructions at the bottom of that post.
Remember, using this software LOCKS your bootloader and also WIPE everything on the device.
My advise is to choose GM57BA 10.3.2, and then just update to 10.3.3 by OTA.

Yes I tried using it yesterday but I stupidly updated to 9.5.8. But I have the same problem not getting any OTA updates. Now I will install 10.3.2. But is it guaranteed to get OTA since I dint get any when 9.5.8 was installed through MSMTools. Thank you

2nd attempt to upgrade to 12.2.4.0 from 12.0.4.0 failed and resulting in storage wipe

Hi,
I would like to know if anybody encountered this. This is my second time encountering this issue. I was on 12.0.4 and received a notification to perform update to 12.4.0. After downloading and rebooting, my twrp launched and after a few seconds instead of flashing, it went to the main menu page. After that, the phone just goes to fastboot mode and refused to boot. My phone has been rooted with magisk. Much appreciated for experts inputs.
The only way for me to boot my phone is to do a clean flash using mi flash tool and fallback to the old version...
Thank you.

V12.0.4.0.QJKMIXM is a android 10 stable rom and V12.2.4.0.RJKMIXM is a android 11 stable beta rom which has many bugs.
V12.2.4.0.RJKEUXM is a stable rom that you can flash with miflash(but EEA not global).

After successfully going to v12.2.4.0, now I am finding that my current TWRP 3.4.1b unable to decrypt the phone thus not able to root it. I guess I have to fall back to 12.0.4.0 to be safe... I was tempted to go to 12.2.4.0 due to android 11 but looks like it's too problematic now due to beta. I was actually wondering why beta was pushed to me.

You are not the only one, many users have reported this problem to XDA and c.mi.com
Try xiaomi.eu_multi_HMK30Pro_V12.2.2.0.RJKCNXM_v12-11 better than stock and on android 11.

Now it is a stable rom https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/lmi/stable/V12.2.4.0.RJKMIXM/
seems to be the same

Try flashing stock recovery before performing ota update. Flashing ota via twrp cause /storage inaccessible for me.

Thanks, so you updated with stock recovery without issues but are you able to flash twrp with the updated rom?

Is that the most stable android 10 based on miui? I'm thinking about downgrading to many android 11 bugs on 12.2.4.0 global

Yes i am able to successfully flashed twrp via fastboot afterward and directly proceed to root using magisk.
Everything works as usual, except, for me atleast, twrp now require pattern-type (3x3 dot) as password for decryption. Pin or character doesnt works.

Deleted.

To solve update problem you need to Rollback to stable stock rom, I used this:
Code:
lmi_global_images_V12.2.4.0.RJKMIXM_20201228.0000.00_11.0_global
extracted it.
then used mi flash from this toolkit:
Code:
mi-globe.com_Xiaomi_MiFlash_Pro_EN_5.3.1104.39.exe
sorry, but I cant provide links to downloads.

This is nothing new. With the bootloader unlock you can flash any version of stock rom with miflash.

Successfully updated to 12.2.4.0. However, my nova launcher has been 'uninstalled' after this upgrade and I am unable to reinstall it with install fail error coming up. I am installing from apk. Anybody has this issue?
