Installing twrp or magisk doesnt work - General Questions and Answers

Hi, so I wanted to install root and I first tried to install twrp but that didnt work, after i tried to install root in the magisk app itself and that didnt work too, heres the log:
- Device platform: armeabi-v7a
- Installing: 23.0 (23000)
! Installation failed
- Copying image to cache
- Unpacking boot image
Parsing boot image: [/data/user_de/0/com.topjohnwu.magisk/install/boot.img]
! Unsupported/Unknown image format
! Installation failed
Does anyone know why this is happening? Please help me I want to install root.

One of the most common ways is to patch a stock boot.img.
Place boot.img in sdcard. Open magisk app. Select "install magisk". Select "patch boot image" then, " let's go". Patched boot image will be in download folder. Put it on your pc and rename to just magisk_patched.img Boot into fastboot mode. "fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img". Then reboot.
I don't know what phone you have but this is the way lots of phones achieve root.

The boot.img can normally be pulled from a copy of your phones firmware. You might inquire on your phone's xda forum, if there is one. Someone might share it with you.

Corrupt image file help

So I rooted my OnePlus 6 through magisk using the command prompt method. And for some odd reason whenever I go to flash the TWRP image it just comes up " the image file is corrupt". I don't know if it's the TWRP download link on there website. But I've tried it on my laptop and another laptop. I keep getting corrupt image file. Anybody know a way to get TWRP without PC or a different method.
did you try downloading the file again

You don't flash that img file, you fastboot boot it. The zip installer is what you flash in twrp.

fastboot flash boot_b twrp.img
Where twrp.img is the img file from TWRP. You can drag and drop or manually change directory to install your TWRP. It works either way.
Yeah ive been reading forums and apparently it's nothing to do with what I'm doing. It's a security update on windows. I just uninstalled it. Gonna try to mount an img file see if it works.
Update that wasn't the issue... I'm sure it's something to do with windows 10.

Just to confirm, you're following this procedure exactly? Particularly the part in red? I just ask because I've see so many people convinced they're doing it right only to realize they had one thing wrong.

TWRP download https://dl.twrp.me/enchilada/
Download twrp-3.2.1-0-enchilada.img from twrp.me site to your pc
Download twrp-installer-enchilada-3.2.1-0.zip from twrp.me to your phone
Hook phone to pc USB with factory red cable (or other usb-c cable that you have tested)
Reboot phone into bootloader
On your pc, go to the location where you downloaded the twrp-3.2.1-0-enchilada.img image
Type fastboot devices to make sure that you get a response showing your phone and serial number
Type fastboot boot twrp-3.2.1-0-enchilada.img
Your phone will boot into twrp YOU WILL BE ASKED TO ENTER YOUR PIN/PATTERN/PASSWORD. IF YOU MAKE A MISTAKE, TWRP WILL LOCK UP; YOU MUST GO BACK TO THIS STEP: "Reboot phone into bootloader"
From twrp, install the twrp-installer-enchilada-3.2.1-0.zip that you downloaded on your phone
Disconnect your phone from the pc
Reboot twrp back into recovery. You should now be rebooted to the official twrp.
If you had magisk installed, then flash magisk or you will bootloop back to twrp

If that's not the issue, you might try using another cable or another port.
Yes those exact steps. And I'm using the factory red cable it came with . I just reinstalled windows 10. So I'll see if that fixed the issue
Update:that didn't fix the issues either.

You CAN NOT flash TWRP from your PC
You must BOOT TWRP. . When you type fastboot devices what does the computer show?
The command is fastboot boot (name of file) but whenever I do that it comes up corrupted. It's an issue with my laptop I guess.

Rooting for March Update?

Hello fellow A2 Lite owners!
I just got this device today and would LOVE to root 10.0.7.0, However it seems like the only way to go through this is by using a patched boot image which is not viable because none have showed up for 10.0.7.0 yet.
Will there be any other solutions for this? Thank you.

Obviously, It is my preferred way since I used it on a couple of devices including my Redmi Note 4 and Mi Pad.
My concern is not OTA but whether it would somehow break the ROM
Yes, I am aware of Mi Flash, Flashing stock ROMS, and other techniques but it's just that i don't have time for such long endeavors and would like to have a safe-ish way.
However I will try to get twrp running temporarily to install magisk.

Only boot twrp not to Flash it...
Boot twrp command » fastboot boot twrp.img
Flash twrp command » fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
I assume you tried "flashing twrp" command, if that's the case it will replace your boot.img to twrp.img that's why it appears the "system has been destroyed" error... Try the "boot twrp command" if you want to access twrp temporarily... Coz right now we cant do(flash full twrp recovery) that as far as I know....

I believe we can I have heard reports offains 3.3.3. Twrp can do it I haven't tryed yet.but I did have twrp with root running on the march update but I'm on pa now

What am I doing wrong every time I try to root?

I've spent most of today following a variation of guides, and I eventually end up with a magisk that is not installed, wifi not working, stuck on a bootloop, stuck on oneplus logo. I've tried different variations of boot_patched, all in one tool, and flash twrp. When I boot to twrp and try to install my storage is empty and I can't find the things to install. Is there a really simple idiot proof way to root, I did not have this much trouble rooting the first time.

For me, the simplest way was:
from full stock:
fastboot oem unlock (this wipes the storage)
If your bootloader is already unlocked:
fastboot boot twrp.img
flash twrp.zip
flash magisk
reboot.
Ive never had any issues doing it this way and i think ive done it 50 times in the past 3 weeks.
I wouldnt bother with the patched_boot images. I would just start with a fresh copy of a fastboot rom or the guac recovery

Use that to boot to twrp with info provided above then use the zip file to flash via TWRP

If you literally used the command: flash twrp.zip
Then in addition to the fact that you need to flash .img, "flash" by itself is not a command. The command would be: fastboot flash twrp.img
The step in Post #2 is meant to be a description of what to do "flash the file" not the exact command syntax. I know you already accomplished it another way, but this is just for your info/knowledge.

flashed TWRP over boot slot B

I ended up flashing TWRP over my boot slot (B) and now I just boot into TWRP. I have already installed TWRP on boot slot (a). I can't remember which version of oxygenOS I have installed and couldn't find a way to confirm. How can I fix this? Also want to update to latest version of oxygenOS and android. No data on phone yet. phone still connects to computer, adb sideloader and fastboot commands still work work. Thanks
Are you saying you did fastboot flash boot of the TWRP img? You should be doing fastboot boot TWRP img, then flash the TWRP installer zip.
You can get the OS back up and running by flashing the correct boot.img via fastboot. Or use one of the fastboot stock ROMs.

Glad you got it recovered.
There is an application called "Partitions Backup".
It allows you to back up all the phone partitions. The one you really want to backup from now on is the boot_a and boot_b.
Since you are rooted when you do an upgrade, grab the boot_a and boot_b before installing Magisk after the install.
This allows you to go back to stock. After you back them up, copy them to a computer.
hey guys. Not able to flash oos through twrp.

Doesn't TWRP back up everything including boot partitions?
Is there nothing that will take the entire internal storage and just make a 'bare metal' image of it for restoring.. the whole entire thing, byte for byte? If not, why doesn't this exist? It just seems so logical to me and would be so incredibly useful. Phone borked? No problem. Just re-image it form the archive you made. To me, that is what TWRP is all about, at least conceptually if not technically.

While this technique certainly appears to have been researched. Running though the instructions has resulted in my device caught in a boot-loop. A pretty serious one too. I can no longer access the bootloader or recovery/
I fear the state my device is in is 'soft bricked/ I have no clue have to resolve this and without access to the bootloader I can't rollback anything.
Some friendly notes for Hsnmastoor:
You should re-format the post. Writing the instructions then at the end supply the links and file attachments in the order in which they should be run As it is, the instructions are confusing .
If anyone has any ideas how to correct the boot loop, plug me in

I can't flash anything. I no longer have access to the bootloader or recovery. Phone is stuck in a bootloop.

Has anyone flashed this successfully?
any bugs? i flashed crdroid. it's too buggy
Hi everybody,
Still mad at myself for buying this phone (with MediaTek SOC) because of the lack of custom ROM support. Never had this issue before with any of my phones. If only i knew this before. The hardware of the phone is great, but the software makes it really frustrating to work with.
So i've tried a lot of things to either mod the original (Chinese) ROM so it's at least functional. And i have also tried multiple of these GSI ROM install methods. Everytime without succes.
I've tried your previous method with the 'GSI installer' and the one from this guide. Neither of them worked. (Boot loop). I have a feeling i run into trouble because (if i'm correct) the original ROM uses a 'super' partition and not a 'system' partition.
If i remember correctly the GSI installer couldn't continue because it couldn't find the system partition.
In this guide (for corvus) i figured i'd flash the system.img to my super partition. Of cource that doesn't work either. If only it was that simple.
Everytime it fails i have to flash back to a standard xiaomi ROM and start all over again. Because for some reason the TWRP backups also dont work for me.
So maybe i'm missing a step in the guide or i've already tried so much to mod my phone i've changed settings/partitions that shouldn't have been changed for this guide to work.
My bootloader is unlocked, i have/had TWRP 3.41 installed.
After a fail i flash back to the original ROM using Xiaomi ABD/Fastboot Tools (xiaomiABDFastbootTools.jar)
Any help would be appreciated!
I never had issue when I flashed the GSI from the crdroid guide did you make sure that you put the GSI installer.zip and the image file rename to system.img to the root internal storage??
Yes i did. It could also find the system.img file, but just wasn't able to flash it.
Can you tell mw what ROM you were flashing from?
