I've seen that dual booting is possible on some phones. Was curious to know if that is possible on the OnePlus 6? I would love to be able to have DP3 of Android P to mess around with. Restart, and use my stable stock rooted OS for work / productivity.

Probably possible later in the future, but not until a stable or official TWRP. You could take a nandroid of your ROM, then install Android P, then take a nandroid of that too, to restore whenever you please. ALWAYS be sure to disable secure lock screen in settings before you backup any TWRP or before trying to reboot recovery to flash or restore any ROM. It causes an issue with decryption that will make the phone inacessable without wiping entire data partition in TWRP.
Just a thought. If I have TWRP installed, I can essentially have current rom release on 1 slot, and have DPP on the other. Then I just switch between slots as I want. Only problem with this is the update process to newer release rom's. Is this correct?
I currently own a Pixel 3a and it's on the latest Android 10 security update, I would like to install a custom rom onto it but since TWRP doesn't support Q I'm wondering if I flashed the 3a with a Pie image and then installed TWRP, would I then be able to use Android 10 custom roms.
Also if anyone could recommend any roms that offer similar features without the massive System size (live captioning, google camera, hold power for gpay) that would be great!

Nope you'll be stuck using Android 9 Roms. Total waste of time is what it is
I downloaded it. Went to local upgrade, installed it.
Went to Magisk and did install to inactive slot like normal. And it reboots. Then a small bootloop for a second. Then goes straight back to normal. Like I never installed anything.
Any thoughts?
I tried to root by patching new boot.img but get bootloop which not fixed except after msmdownload tool
All data wiped

Same here. If you dont install magisk to the inactive slot it will go through and you will be in oos12. Problem with mine, it wont read my flaking sim card. Tried it 5x all same problem. Also, every reboot, your dpi goes back to 360 lmao.
I patched boot.img by canary magisk and it is working good, but no option for safetynet passing

I used this guide but patched with magisk 23.0. still have all my modules and passing safety net. Using latest stable magisk 23.0 righteous. Thank you for this. I tried for 3 days killing my device flashing boot img. At least I know my downloaded msm tool works. On latest A12 build out for the global op9
I wouldnt recommend it tbh if its your only phone. Its buggy AH.

Would you or anyone else mind sharing the boot img for the OnePlus 9: OOS/Android 12 ?
I have the Global / NA version.
It would be greatly appreciated!

I have on my PC I will upload soon. Away from it currently. You really need 3 partitions to make work. Boot,vendor_boot,vbmeta
Geesh the battery is so much better on A12 after debloating how I see fit. Passing safety net, all banking apps working and still using old modules !! Score

0p9 partitions..A 12 - Google Drive

All three are in here. Make sure to use magisk 23.0 to patch boot and vendor boot so you don't loose modules and magisk hide. Then you disable verity before boot with vb_meta img. You have to do from sdk platform tools folder though. Will not work just putting in a folder on desktop and pulling cmd window from there. Enjoy , follow the above guide to a T

Thanks a lot for the files Mattie.
My experience with OOS 12 so far has been a nightmare, and I'm not even rooted.
For the record:
I was coming from OOS 11 not the latest version previous to OOS 12, rooted, pretty much stable but I felt the phone pretty slow in comparison to other (Long story short, I got a brand new OnePlus 8 I bought almost a year ago but couldn't get my hands on it, so after getting tired of waiting for it, bought the OP9).
My OP8 is not rooted, doesn't have the bootloader unlocked, and it's miles faster than my OP9 with about the same apps installed with the exception of the apps that require root.
So, since my OP9 was feeling slow in comparison, I decided to go at OOS 12 to see how it went. First experience was bad, the phone kept hanging, didn't read the SIM correctly at first, so I read someone that was suggesting to do a factory reset to fix some issues.
I did a factory reset, deleted everything on the phone to start OOS 12 from zero, and the phone keeps hanging, specially when I get phone calls via Whatsapp or other apps, and less but still some problems with "answering incoming phone calls".
At this point I rather try to downgrade to OOS 11 and sit this one out for a long while.
I thought about rooting OOS 12, but being honest, having root is not going to make the phone more stable or anything. I guess I'll do give it a try at OOS 12 in 3-6months after a couple of updates, maybe other versions are better.

I have the correct msm tool for device. This is the forward route for you. Takes you to 11.4. Stock A11
Does anyone else have the issue of their touchscreen not functioning when they install the A12 update? Ive tried installing twice and both times my screen would not register any touches only the volume and power buttons functioned?
EDIT: NVM I MSM'd back to stock and upgraded to OOS 12 before unlocking the bootloader.

if you are looking for performance, look into kernels and/or just use a kernel manager.
out of all the Roms I've tried (all but the latest havok release) crDroid is the best performance option I get from a ROM on O09. that piared with optional GApps and frequent OTA updates, its the best thing out so far. the OTA even works perfectly at retaining root without any user input. (but do a backup before reboot, its still technically a dirty flash so play safe)

I don't want to get too off-topic, but figured I'd save a MSM wipe to some people, I can confirm this works, but only using the latest version of Magisk (v24), temporary boot will not work with v23 (the last one with MagiskHide), it caused Qualcomm crashdump and no recovery or fastbootd.
If anyone looks into other root spoofing solutions with the newer version v24, from Magisk settings use Zygisk, select apps using Enforced Denylist, and Universal SafetyNet Fix, there is also Shamiko, which I haven't tested personally.
From my own experience, DenyList+Universal SafetyNet fix+Selinux Switch if you need to switch between permissive and enforced Selinux are enough. Apps won't get to know there is root, safetynet is passed, and selinux checks are passed (that one took me a long while to figure out)
I have struggled to find good info on backup and restore options. I would like to do a full phone backup directly to my computer. Any advice on the best method to do so? I am on Lineage 19-20220824-microG-Lemonade. It shows there are updates available, however this phone is in daily use so I don't want to risk so update-induced meltdown and would like to be ready with a good backup/recovery setup. I have been "using" seedvault with nextcloud but I don't trust it as it constantly throws errors, and I'm afraid if I were to try to restore from the seedvault backup and it were somehow corrupted I could be worse off than before.
Also, can I take the updates that are offered by the phone (OTA, I think) over the microg build or would I need to do a clean install of the latest microg ROM?
Thanks.
If anyone comes here, TWRP official doesn't work, but this does:
[RECOVERY][3.7.0-12.1][UNOFFICIAL][UNIFIED] TWRP with A12/A13 encryption support
This is an unofficial build of TWRP, based on the Android 12.1 branch, that supports encryption used by Android 12 and 13 ROMs. This build is tested on OP9 pro, but it was confirmed to work on regular OP9 too. As always I'm not responsible for...
forum.xda-developers.com
After getting a backup to my PC, I felt safe enough trying the update directly via the LineageOS system interface, and it appears to have worked fine.
Now I wonder whether I should wait to go from 19.1 to 20.0
