TROUBLE WITH DOWNGRADING MAGISK FROM 22.1 TO OLDER VERSIONS ON ANDROID 11 ONEPLUS 7 PRO. - OnePlus 7 Pro Questions & Answers

Hi! I've updated my OnePlus 7Pro to Android 11. I was able to keep the rooting from Android 10, by installing A11 via Oxygen Updater, and then by the feature "inactive slot installing (after OTA)" in Magisk. I use TWRP.
PROBLEM: Latest version of Magisk (22.1) won't work with Screen2auto and I need to downgrade to at least 21.4, but I can't because TWRP don't work on Android 11 so I can't flash directly from the phone.
The process of upgrading from A10 to A11, kind of "force" Magisk to update to 22.1, since using "inactive slot installing (after OTA)", automatically also install the latest version of Magisk.
I can't downgrade to A10 because I will probably loose root.
I've tried to use "custom update" on Magisk by coping the raw link (stable.json) from GitHub; it seems that Magisk won't downgrade using this method (failing to install the package or something..)
Sooo now I'm stuck. I would like to downgrade Magisk and have A11. Any suggestions? Thanks!

updating with magisk and twrp

I have a google pixel recently rooted with Magisk and have TWRP. My system is informing me of a system update, and it says Couldn't install update. I've seen people suggesting using FlashFire to flash a factory image of the update, then install Magisk right after that. So how would i go about it? can i do just that? is it possible to update that way? can i flash both magisk and twrp after flashing the factory image? thanks in adv

Try this
2x speed video of my using FlashFire to update the Pixel to the February Android 8.1 update, plus flashing ElementalX custom kernel v3.02 and Magisk v14.2. A little less than 3 minutes at this speed.

You have to be on Magisk 14.2 (not a higher version) to begin with, though, so if you're not, disregard this, or search for and read the appropriate posts for uninstalling Magisk and installing the correct version in order to use FlashFire under 8.1.

installing Android 10 over Pie

I'm wondering if I can install Android 10/Q over Pie without having to clean flash. On the Pixel 3 there were issues during rooting when there wasn't a clean update.

I'd say try it out. I just installed Android 10 yesterday via ADB sideload over Android Pie with TWRP. As always, perform a backup in TWRP before going forward with anything.
Edit: to clarify as well, I was rooted with Magisk and TWRP on Android Pie. Using TWRP/adb sideload, the OS updated without any issues. After that, I installed TWRP and Magisk v. 20.1 again and have been fine for 16 hours.

Update Magisk 20.2 ?

Had anyone tried Magisk 20.2 and manager 7.5.0?
Is it bootloop free with OS 10?
I updated to the canary release through TWRP and I've been good. I'd expect you won't boot loop, but do a backup first if you can.
I updated thru mm ( after updating mm thru mm) and installed the recommended way in app. No issues.
LG G6 Pie
just updated to M 20.2 my LG G6 H870 Pie thru mm and got into bootloop. no way out and reset phone with LG Bridge (LGup not working for me since 9.0) without data loss. tried again from twrp and bootloop again. now flashing last 20.1 and won't install till next update.
I have latest Magisk Canary & Magisk Manager Canary from today, 02.01.2020. Working fine.
Did the Direct Install and all up to date! ?
I have OP6T with Android 10 AND recently updated to magisk 20.2 and Is working fine for me
Modules don't work in Magisk 20.2. They get installed but they don't take effect. I have to go back to Magisk version 20.1.

Hi, just installed 20.3 and all is working; reading the log, problems for 20.2 were known with LG.
All is ok!

Hi to everyone I'm on magisk 20.1, can I update directly to magisk 20.3 via magisk manager or before I've to uninstall some modules (maybe oos native call) like rom update?

I've never had to uninstall modules to update Magisk (I have Swift Installer and xXx modules). Just update the manager app and do direct install of the update.

I need help to install a specific firmware update

Hello. I've just unlocked the bootloader of my oneplus 7 and installed TWRP & Magisk.
Now, I searched for a bit a list of all the firmware updates for this phone, but didn't find much.
In the end, I found this page with several downloads:
https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=295474
Since for Android 9 I see only versions 9.5.7 and 9.5.8, is it correct to assume that version 9.5.8 is the latest update for Android 9?
(I don't want to upgrade to Android 10)
If yes, which file should I choose between these, and how would I proceed to install it, possibly without losing root and TWRP?
- [EU] OnePlus 7 OxygenOS 9.5.8 Full ROM.zip
- [EU] OnePlus 7 OxygenOS 9.5.8 OTA Update.zip
- [EU] Oxygen OS 9.5.8 Kernel Boot.img
- [Global] OnePlus 7 OxygenOS 9.5.8 Full ROM.zip
- [Global] OnePlus 7 OxygenOS 9.5.8 OTA Update.zip
- [Global] Oxygen OS 9.5.8 Kernel Boot.img
Thank you very much for any help. I really don't know where to start (and can't find much, if anything, by searching).
