[walleye] 8.1 rooted with Magisk v14.5 reports Android System issue

See attachment. What's my next step? Am I doing anything wrong?
My 8.1 upgrade process (after I rooted on 8.0 using Magisk)
- fastboot flash boot Nov update 8.0 boot.img
- adb sideload the OTA 8.1 upgrade
- redo the Magisk root process with v14.5
What should I do?

It's a problem with magisk 14.5, everyone has it on 8.1, just cosmetic, there is a unofficial 14.5 without the dbto img that will not show that message.
But magisk just needs updating. There is a unofficial magisk there with steps in there to correct it.

I literally just fixed this on my device after trying for hours. I checked the "Preserve AVB 2.0/dm-verity" checkbox in the Magisk app. I then reinstalled MagiskManager 14.6 through the app (beta channel in app at time of writing). I then rebooted. This now allows you to flash you dtbo.img without having Magisk patch it. to do that. You do that just like you flashed the boot.img. commands would be add flash boot flash dtbo.img and then add flashboot reboot. Get the dtbo.img from the same factory image you got the boot.img.
Steps:
1. Check Preserve AVB 2.0/dm-verity
2. Install 14.6 MagiskManager beta
3. Reboot
4. Flash dtbo.img
5. Enjoy no annoying alert
I'm all good now, I've just got an issue where my locksceen clock font is Bold... not sure if this is because I was flashing font modules or something else but it is super annoying to the UX designer in me.

[GUIDE] How to root your Nokia 8, and keep the ability to do official OTA updates

So as the official bootloader unlock broadened the audience of this from tinkerers/developers to basically everyone I thought this guide might me helpful for some...
PREREQUISITES:
- Unlocked bootloader (official or unofficial)
- latest magisk manager installed on phone (https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases)
- latest fastboot and adb binaries from google(https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools)
- latest twrp.img to boot (NOT FLASH), zip not needed (https://eu.dl.twrp.me/NB1/)
- Fully stock partitions (if you do not have this reflash latest stock via ostla), as OTA updates will do a integrity check.
- PC with WIN/OSX/LINUX with USB port^^ (on windows you might have to add .exe to the commands)
- disable automatic system updates in developer options, as you will still have to manually root the updated partition, so this makes sure you don't miss it. You still get notifications on available updates and can apply them easily(as you will see)
SETUP_STEPS:
1. Go into Magisk manager and "just download" the latest zip
2.1 Run
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
or reboot into download/fastboot mode via other means
2.2 Run
Code:
fastboot boot twrp-3.2.3-1-NB1.img
(change this when your version of twrp differs)
2.3 Flash the .zip magisk downloaded in 1.)
2.4 Reboot.
Congratulations you now have root!
STEPS_TO_UPDATE:
1. Go into Magisk Manager -> Uninstall -> Restore Images
2. Apply Update, DO NOT REBOOT YET
3. When step to finished and it promts you to reboot go into Magisk Manager -> Install -> Install to inactive Slot
Congratulations you can now reboot and will have an updated Android while keeping full root.

ALTERNATIVE GUIDE (without twrp, using prerooted boot.img)
(works for newest patch level, where twrp isn't working yet)
this guide works on newest patches as long as someone provides a prerooted boot.img.
So basically you either need a boot.img available or twrp...
Hopefully this helps until TWRP is compatible with September Security Patch
LINKS:
stock boot.img: (may to october patches)
https://cloud.vault81.de/s/fnoizKwi8kNF3Rg
prerooted boot.img: (may to october patches)
https://cloud.vault81.de/s/AeHiE5HR2qonb3N
PREREQUISITES:
- same as above minus twrp
- patched/prerooted boot image (either create it yourself or use link provided here)
STEPS_TO_ROOT:
0.
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
or get into download mode otherwise
1.
Code:
fastboot boot NB1_prerooted_boot.img
1.1. The phone will boot into an temporarily rooted state,
2. Use magisk manager-> Install -> "Direct Install" to persist the root.
3. Reboot
Congrats you now have root even on versions where twrp isn't working yet....
Edit1:
Added link to all stock boot images from may to october security
Edit2:
Did the same for magisk prerooted
Edit3:
Added November images thanks to @czupyt

TWRP isnt working right now so whoever updated to September patch cant do anything except unlock bootloader. Unless someone can pull a boot.img from the newest patch so we can all patch it through Magisk and get root.

Simple Solution: A/B Partition System.
One Slot is the September Update, the other is August Update.
Update to September, Unlock, witch to other Slot with August Update, Boot Offical TWRP 3.2.3-0 (-1 not booting tho).
Now you can Install the Install Zip for the August BL and Magisk.
Bootup and use Magisk for Inactive Slot.
So did I, but I'm still on August Slot, I'll try to root the September Boot Partiton, and Install TWRP later when Fix arrived.
But rooted September doens't seem very... Stable

I'm already about to install the September patch again. I downgraded to May so I could root my phone and provide the clean boot.img from the stock September so people can root without twrp. And honestly A/B partition is still new to me that I still don't understand it

A/B system is not Complex at all. It's just having 2x a Partiton Group (Boot, System, OEM and Recovery I think) and having the ability with Fatboot to simply switch between group A and group B.
You Inital Set up Partiton A (Nokia did for us with Nougat 7.1.1). If you Update, the Update will be extracted to Partition B, aftzer finishing you reboot to Partiton Group B, leaving group A untouched in Case of Error on Partition B.
That's it pretty much.

On what step? Was it after you completed the guide? Or did the patched image not boot already?
If the patched image worked but it din't afterwards, you should reflash the stock_boot.img and redo the guide again because you probably flashed twrp and broke your bootloader...
As you can see in the prerequisites this guide requires a stock bootloader to start.

So did the prerooted Image Boot?
If so it basically has to be your boot/system partition(I had mine compromised too and couldn't fix it with just flashing boot.img had to reflash everything via ostla)
If even the prerooted Image didnt boot im sorry i don't really know how to help, as I have working root with Magisk on September patch and the Image boots just fine for me....

Also you could Switch slots to revert back to august Patch and use the normal twrp guide then... And run the September Update via the magisk method

Hey everyone;
My Nokia TA-1004 is on the July SP (4.88B_SP02) with unlocked bootloader (unofficial method), TWRP and Magisk installed.
Where can I find a stock boot.img to flash? I tried flashing the boot.img on this thread and although I can boot fine my wifi will be broken (I tried and had to restore nandroid backup). I also tried following the guide here but my OSTLA won't get past "Flashing Service Bootloader".
Any help?

Flash the full Stock build (i think its even may patch), via ostla (https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...ia-8-official-firmware-links-updated-t3678487), then follow this guide then reapply all updates by following the update steps...

So which file do I have to download from https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1t64iHuQQjmMnzcujZtjYplh6ipbiF6Cw ? I tried with the 488B one and got stuck on "flashing service bootloader"...

If you have a locked bootloader, you can't do anything.
Magisk and root is separate to TWRP on this phone. This image will help you get Magisk installed.

Hi a1291762, as a noob could I ask you a few questions please?
Wanting to downgrade from Q to Pie, could I used your 10.0.20.0 vanilla boot with the Mi Flash Tool using the steps here, and then if I wanted to add root I could use the 10.0.20.0 patched boot with the guide here?
Thank you!

You might want to check that people have been able to downgrade. I know that pie-oreo caused a modem issue.
You need a fastboot image to downgrade. Unless MiFlash has magic (I have never used it).
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/how-to/fastboot-xiaomi-mi-a2-fastboot-images-t3824871
Looks like you'll have to downgrade to 10.0.18.0 and then apply the 10.0.20.0 update, since I do not see a fastboot for 10.0.20.0.
You won't need the vanilla boot image because it is in the fastboot image.
One you have 10.0.20.0 installed you can use the 10.0.20.0 patched boot to install Magisk.

Much appreciated, I had thought your vanilla boot and the fastboot images were the same things, once I downgrade to 10.0.18.0, how would I apply the 10.0.20.0 update as I assume the next xiaomi system update would skip straight to the latest Q build?

I'm not totally sure...
There are links to the OTA zips around. A thread about Android 10 showed how to install one using the stock recovery... I guess the same works for 10.0.20.0?
As a Linux user I would be inclined to try and use command line tools to install the OTA zip... But I don't even know if that's a thing

I bought titanium backup pro a long time ago and still use it. Back in the day, the free version was annoying for whole device restore. But it's let me move across 5 devices and saved me from losing data on many occasions so I consider it money well spent.
I backup and then rsync /sdcard to a computer daily (CLI tools from cron). For restore I copy the files back (if needed) and then restore.
I only backup user apps, call history and SMS. System apps don't restore properly these days.

General Global 11.2.6.6 rooted!!!

First off I'm not responsible for anything that happens to your device
Attached below is the patched image for OnePlus 9 global 11.2.6.6
Flash via fastboot

Thank you for this! Since Magisk removed the option for OTA install, I was forced to do it the harder way... But you my friend made it much easier on me ! Thank you!!

Sorry for newbie's question, what's the difference between the two files? one is stock and one is patched?

Yes. Stock has to be flashed to take next ota. And patched is for root on current rom. Since op9 now uses google ota if any partitions are modified including the boot image ,it will fail.

Mine still there as well. But I like to flash stock boot image back. Take ota. Then fastboot boot patched.img. Dump current boot image to sd through shell. Then direct install in magisk. I've seen many users have issues taking ota's using the other method. As in not even being able to boot or booting back into old build . So I prefer this way. Wanna avoid the msm tool and not loose data on device/have to factory reset.

Edit- I got it, I had to flash original images and then updates showed up. Thanks for posting these images.
Hi, thanks for posting the images. I assume global as in the US AA model since that is the only model with OTA from googles server right? The reason I was asking is I am on 11.0.4.4 and never received the notification for the update yet, but using oxygen updater, when I go in settings and check advanced mode, it shows a incremental update. My system under local file of course can't see it or will not show the update. I figured I could fastboot boot the stock image and then maybe it system could see the update, but when I try, the device just hangs on the fastboot screen(right before normally booting). I tried with my image and it booted. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks

You are correct my friend. One needs stock untouched boot image to be able to take next update. If your on 11.2.5.5 you need that boot image to get ota to install correctly. This 11.2.6.6 img if for next round of updates. Here is 11.2.5.5 for anyone that might still be on older build.

Alternatively, you could:
1. Go to Magisk manager, and tap Uninstall to unroot. And then regular reboot.*
2. Download and install partial OTA, reboot and confirm update. Reboot to bootloader.
3. Fastboot boot patched boot img**
4. Go to Magisk Manager and direct install for permanent root.
5. Reboot and profit.
*this step presupposes that Magisk has a STOCK boot.img to restore for the unroot procedure. If it does not have that, you're obligated to use the process described in post #11.
**you could actually use a recent previous version of patched boot img (like patched 11244) if the update's patched boot img is still unavailable, and then use Magisk manager to patch the update with a direct install

So doing it this method backs up stock untouched current boot image and reflashes during uninstall of magisk to allow ota to go through.? Since the op9 uses google ota all partitions have to be stock including boot image. Or it fails

What's the command to flash the stock 11.2.5.5 boot.img? I tried renaming the boot_a.img the mattie_49 posted to boot.img but it would not flash.

Thanks. Got the command to work this time. Tried a few times yesterday but had no luck

Question (Solved) Can't update to .c47

Hello, I have a OnePlus 9 running android 12 c.40 and I'm trying to update to c.47. When I try and update it says installation problem half way through. I've tried clearing the storage to most system and Google apps along with hiding them from magisk with no luck. I'm unsure if there's a way to update manually with Android 12 because I could not find a way. I was only able to update through TWRP before in which it is incompatible with Android 12. Would appreciate any help with this!

Google-ota detects altered partitions and ota fails... Your boot img is altered to root. Restore stock boot img for build your on currently. Google your method.

So I just completely uninstalled magisk and used the flash toolbox to retire stock images. I also flashed the stock boot.img myself but still with no luck

Unfortunately still getting the same error

I am in the same situation. I only had my OP 9 for a couple of weeks and I came from a OP 5 where rooting and flashing was much easier. It would be good to know what you did to get OOS updated.

So when you download the package, you can use Oxygen Updater to install it. Choose the root package and it will install with Magisk, you will lose Twrp recovery. But you can just flash that back afterwards. Worked like a charm for me

I don't have TWRP cause it's not compatible with Android 12. I've had to factory reset the last 3 updates because of this same issue. When I had TWRP I could update with oxygen update and keep root. Being android 12 I also don't have the option to manually update via the phones update system. I don't mind factory resetting again because I have swift backup. I'd just like to know how to avoid it. Like if I could just flash it with fastboot or something

I downloaded the Oxygen Updater app and downloaded the full OTA however not able to use the auto update method simply because TWRP does not work on A12. There is a manual process where you need to download the OP Local Update APK and use this to flash the update. I have not tried this myself but I would assume you would lose root doing this method and need to root your phone again.

This worked! I uninstalled root in the first place so losing it didn't matter. This is the Apk. You have to remove the .zip in order to turn it into an APK. Thanks for the tip!

Sweet! I have downloaded the full OTA and extracted the boot.img so I can use Magisk to patch it to get root again. I still haven't gone through the process yet but thanks for letting us know this method works. Also thanks to @illusiveairforce for leading us to the Oxygen Updater app.
