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.

No it will not break the ROM I'm running the March update with twrp n magisk the only thing that does not work is backup n restore there is a new twrp 3.3.3.0 but I haven't installed it yet.

How did you get TWRP to work? I am using the official image but whenever i boot into the .img, click cancel as instructed, and install the twrp zip, the result is that when i try to boot into recovery it says System has been destroyed (recovery only, normal boot is ok)

I have followed this guide but it would always result in the installed version of TWRP not installing correctly, and the system mentioning "The System has been destroyed, Press power button to shut down"
How can i resolve this?

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
I installed the Stable Android 10 on my GM1910 via TWRP, totally forgetting about maintaining root and TWRP.
So how do I bring back TWRP and root?
fastboot boot doesn't seem to work, I managed to pull the boot.img and patch it with Magisk from another device but flashing it through fastboot ends up in an endless bootanimation.
Could anyone help me? here's a link of the boot.img i pulled, it works if you flash it without magisk patching it.
Link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1O8lF1UDwwu0zT8ro5Q1gKKfdxF-HGPEW/view?usp=sharing
(Almost) exactly the same here. I tired flashing a patched boot.img, it actually boots - but magisk manager gets stuck on the splash screen and some apps, including chrome, won't start. Trying to boot TWRP results in the phone getting stuck on the "fastboot mode" screen.
My only solution would be to downgrade, root, keep the upgrade this time. But because my ISP is doing some maintenance work I don't have wifi - and restoring my phone through mobile data does not seem to work correctly.
EDIT: In fastboot, neither bootloader version nor baseband version are show, product name is "msmnile". Has this always been that way?
EDIT 2, solution:
I extracted the boot.img from the device, and patched it using magisk on the same phone:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-Gf-6iXSFuYT5xDR-mnLKANvkXUHal9e/view?usp=sharing
Run this command in fastboot so you know which is the CURRENT active slot :
Code:
fastboot getvar current-slot
Run this command so you can flash the correct slot :
Code:
fastboot flash boot_X magisk_patched.img
replace X with the a or b from the command before.

Hi sorry to hear that you got this problem and hopefully it gets fixed. I have another question: does that mean using TWRP to completely clean the device then installing Android 10 via zip will remove TWRP and fastboot everything? Does that mean after installing, everything will be refreshed like a box opened phone?

If you have an endless boot animation you might be trying to boot from the wrong slot, try using the fastboot set_active command to change slot, then restart

Either one should work if the rom and the rooted boot image is on it (If you are rooting). That's why you should install using TWRP, if you look in the reboot menu it will show you the active slot.

You are supposed to flash it in the one that IS the active one. Because you do want to root the slot that you'll be booting.

Same.
I've read that Q/10 is different and you can't install TWRP like that anymore. Supposedly you need to use the MSM tool or the all-in-one tool but I've tried both of those and still can't boot to TWRP.

Hopefully there will be a solution. I had tried to update from Pie to Q10 while staying rooted and it didn't work. So I had to wipe the whole device and decided to wait for a smoother root method for my device. If you have any other ideas about rooting Q10 let me know. Thank you

Stuck at Fastboot booting when flashed img and also zip
Sent from my GM1911 using Tapatalk
I updated my phone to 10 last night, followed the same guide as I have for every other update but this time I lost root for some reason.
I still have TWRP recovery on there but it can't read internal storage so I can't flash Magisk.
I tried changing file system to ext 2 then back to 4 and then repairing it as I read elsewhere and this wiped the phone obviously but internal storage seemed to be working until I set the phone up again, downloaded Magisk, rebooted to recovery and I'm back where I started, internal storage showing as 0mb in TWRP.
Any ideas how to fix?
HI Everybody,
I have a Oneplus 8T, European, I installed lineage recovery and Lineage OS 18.1, rooted, but now I would like to reinstall Oxygen 11. Please, can you tell me how to do or where to find the answer?
Please, don't tell me to use TWRP because at moment it's not available for this smartphone.
Thank you All in advance!

I guess you could try to fastboot flash a full rom zip I think that should work. If not you can just use the MSM tool to restore.
The steps to fastboot flash a full OOS rom zip should be the same as listed in this conversion thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/guide-convert-tmo-to-global-eu-or-other-variant.4188491/

I believe it can fastboot flashed. I just haven't tried it yet. I did see another post where the steps were laid out but remember where I saw it
I am also very interested in the answer to this question. And I think I know why the answer is "use the MSM tool".
Here's how I arrived at that:
If you use payload_dumper to have a look at what gets flashed when installing a rom, there's a number of image files that aren't listed in /dev/block/by-name such as odm, product, vendor and even system(!). This means that you cannot flash them using fastboot and the only way to flash them is via fastbootd (which is in recovery.img).
So the theoretical process is:
- boot into fastboot
- flash boot, recovery, and the other "normal" partitions
- start fastbootd using "fastboot reboot fastboot"
- flash the remaining partitions
- reboot
The problem with OOS is that fastbootd looks very much like recovery: it has no ADB/fastboot connectivity. So you cannot flash the remaining partitions.
Conclusion: the MSM Tool is the only way to return.
Acknowledgment: thanks to @chandu dyavanapelli for the Evolution-X rom installer script which helped me understand what's going on. See https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...0_r34-evolution-x-passion-22-04-2021.4266067/
I recently updated to MIUI v12.5.1.0.RCDMIXM using a recovery zip through TWRP. A few days later I decided to flash Magisk by patching the boot.img from the same zip and flashed using fastboot.
Everything worked fine until I rebooted to recovery using the Magisk app. Now it's stuck at the TWRP splash screen, can't even reboot or enter fastboot with power and volume buttons because it will always try to boot to TWRP.
What do I need to do to fix this?
This is where I got the TWRP
Just erase/format the MISC partition.
This partition holds a "go to recovery" parameter.

You said "fastboot", so you need the fastboot ROM.
SP flash tool does NOT need the device to be turned off, it just need to REBOOT.
If you try to flash while a reboot to another reboot, it will works perfectly.

Are you still in 12.5? Do you also use a custom recovery in that version?
Just managed to access a laptop and got to fix the situation. Turns out I can still use adb even though TWRP is stuck on the logo screen.
First tried the `fastboot erase misc` command but misc partition doesn't exist on the device.
Tried `fastboot continue` but won't let me use the command and `fastboot reboot` just makes it go to recovery and get stuck again.
I flashed Orange Fox Recovery and it was still stuck at it's splash screen. So I went back to fastboot and for some reason `fastboot reboot` worked now and booted to system, further restarts are normal now.
Now I'm curious, why won't custom recoveries work with MIUI 12.5? When I tried accessing root, every folder (ex. system) is in this format [1;34system[0m, does it have something to do with that?
Still trying to get the stock recovery, but there's no fastboot rom file for this version yet...

Magisk v23 works just fine, just patch the boot.img file of your ROM version and flash it with custom recovery or fastboot.

Theres one TWRP that doesnt have a splashscreen, in that one just block and unblock the screen while on recovery and it'll work fine. BUT your internal storage isn't going to be accesible, its encrypted and (for some reason) on 12.5 twrp cant unlock the storage, you'll have to do everything on your sdcard

I have bricked this device (One Plus Nord CE 2 Lite) by flashing the unofficial twrp image for this device. Device bootloops in TWRP.
Previously, I had succesfully unlocked the bootloader and rooted this device by flashing the patched magisk boot.img by following the method mentioned in this post (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/rooting-oneplus-nord-2-ce-lite.4500297/)
How to restore the factory image and recover from this?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
...reboot to fastboot, flash the original boot and vbmeta and you're done ...maybe you have to change back the slot, but it's almost impossible to brick the device
...don't mess around with "Recovery" ...this device has already the newest partitioning system and there is no recovery partition
best regards
I messed up by flashing the wrong twrp image made. (Device was stuck on 1+ logo screen)
Thanks to your post i was able to rescue this device.
I used Oxygen Updater App, payload-dumper-gui and minimal adb fastboot.
Flashed boot and vbmeta with stock img files.
Restarting the device now will boot into fastboot mode.
Changing slots helped a lot.
(fastboot set-active=a/b)
After that, Device booted normally into OS.
... you're very welcome, Sir ...but really, don't mess around with "old school" recovery systems ...they are not needed anymore and furthermore they can't handle the "dynamic super partitioning" ...and again: nobody needs them after the year 2015 anymore
...best regards

I messed up by flashing the wrong twrp image made. (Device was stuck on 1+ logo screen)
Thanks to your post i was able to rescue this device.
I used Oxygen Updater App, payload-dumper-gui and minimal adb fastboot.

Hey can you help me pls, I am in the exact same situation as you but I can't get the stock img files, whenever I use payload-dumper it just gives me system.img and nothing else, could you maybe share your img files ?
Edit: I manged to get some files but still not the boot.img, I don't undestand why it just refuses to give them to me, I redownloaded everything at least 3 times...
Use Payload-Dumper-GUI instead of Payload-Dumper-Go
Hey @NickR01 if possible can you send me an boot.img and vbmeta
I don’t have windows pc so can’t use Payload-Dumper
It will also help future users to unbrick device.

@vikas_anakin I have files for eu variant, can't help you there bud. If flashed it can mess up your device.
If you are stuck with payload.bin extraction... try it with an android device.
Here's the tool for Android.
Payload-Dumper-Android
Here's the guide for it.
XDA Guide
Newb Guide
Follow the guide and download this app to extract the .bin file
Termux App: Termux Github
After the extraction, type fastboot (pc required) commands to flash and change current active slots from A to B if it's stuck in bootloop after flashing.
I hope this helps you recover your device.

Extracting the payload.bin is not an issue, The issue is I don't have stock firmware.
I used https://www.getdroidtips.com/oneplus-nord-ce-2-lite-5g-firmware-flash-file/ but my wifi and Bluetooth are not working after installing it.
Do you have any suggestions on how can i resolve these issues?
@vikas_anakin Download authentic firmware from this app. Files are pulled from OnePlus servers.
Google Playstore: Oxygen Updater
Oxygen Updater Settings -> Enable Advanced Mode
Select device region.
Latest update for holi is CPH2381_11_A.13 as of now.
I extracted the images from the payload.bin found in the Oxygen Updater file (that I had actually successfully used to update my device) and flashed 2 partitions:
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
I then rebooted and now it's stuck in a boot loop & I can't even access fastboot anymore. Can someone please help?
Thanks
EDIT:
I managed to access fastboot & flash the rest of the partitions to fix it.

Or else you can extract img files from the oneplus rom file.
and flash them using fastboot.
Okay thank you for the reply, would you be able to point me to a official img file ? Or maybe someone has one extracted I could use please? I have looked online, but the ones I have gotten don't seem to work. I have also looked on the oneplus website for an official img but I could not find one.
So after a little more research, I can use another android device with the app Oxygen updater, download the full img.... So I am currently doing that and then ill try use fastboot or twrp to flash. Just wanted to spread info incase anyone else is having issues getting latest official roms for this device.

Hey man, I would suggest not going with msm tool or anything.
Just download the latest update file of your device using oneplus updater app, or you can ask for the file if some of your friends has the same device.
use this tool to extract payload files https://github.com/vm03/payload_dumper
Now you can follow the same procedure as here https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ock-oxygenos-firmware-on-oneplus-10r.4465077/
