I would stick with 33.0.3 myself. 34.0.3 still has some bugs in it and it hasn't been updated yet.

Best way is to update using fastboot man...or sideload the OTA

Will side loading with no wipe.bat cause any bugs? I was thinking that it's similar to dirty flashing custom ROMs.

Nope, just have to reroot after you do and you're golden. I do every update.

Okay, should I flash the current build I'm on and update via OTA or should I flash the latest build directly?

Flash the latest directly by extracting the zip and fastboot flashing each file. Open the flash all script in a word editor to see the commands if you're unsure, but do not run it or it will wipe your phone. Also do not run the wipe userdata command obviously haha

Can't update or fastboot twrp

I spent all day trying to make this work. I had root but took an OTA by accident. I'm on 8.1 stock and can't check for updates or update locally. I also cannot fastboot twrp. It reboots to a fastboot mode screen. I've tried many versions of twrp new and old. I haven't found an answer yet. Anyone seen this before? Thanks

Fastboot devices
Fastboot boot twrp. Img
It used to work. It shows through adb that it was successful but op6 reboots to fastboot mode in the center of the screen. I can get the phone recognized by adb when the screen has a green start sign on top.

Android 10 - Root

Hey guys!
I have a rooted pixel 3. I want to upgrade to Android 10 if they release in the next day or so as reported. I've read they made some progress with magisk...
What is my best bet here?
I would love to keep root, but most importantly I want to keep my data and upgrade to Android 10.
I do really want to keep root too.
Is there a guide?
Thanks!
I had Q beta 6 working with current process. Canary channel still only works by patching your boot.IMG. So with twrp still not working on beta 6. All instructions say image flash not possible upgrade path. So until 10 is stable + twrp stable I don't know either. I will just flash 10 and see also. But I really don't expect data to retain, will try though.

This is a build of blueline TWRP-3.3.1 from the crosshatch tree that is supposedly working from a follow-up post.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pi...pixel-3-xl-t3861623/post79995400#post79995400
So is there no way to root just now?
I upgraded from a rooted Android 9 by downloading the factory image for 10 and removing -w from the bat file. All okay, data retained.
But there is no TWRP that works and I tried to fastboot boot a magisk patched boot image from the factory image zip file and it didn't work.

That works, did it myself. Make sure you are on the latest canary build of Magisk.

It did not work on Android Q Beta 6... just bootlooped. So I am assuming it still does not work for 10.
It does not work for me, guess I should have removed my magisk modules before updating :crying:
TWRP also seems not to work so I see no way to remove these modules now...
Does anyone have a suggestion besides wiping the device?

Did you try the twrp version in post #3?
Just got a notification for upgrading to android 10 , date Tuesday 10.19 pm.
Since there is no xposed available for Android 10, i' ll stick to android 9
Looks like TWRP won't decrypt. Has anyone ADB sideloaded the Canary version of Magisk through TWRP? That was the old workaround when decryption didn't work.

I was under the impression that fastboot of twrp-3.3.1-0-blueline could be used for certain things in 10 (possibly flashing Magisk uninstaller). Also, be sure you have the canary uninstaller.

I assumed it was for 3XL only, glad you pointed that out! It does boot, however TWRP is not able to mount anything (system, data etc.), so I guess this is a dead end.

As stated above I am unable to access any partitions, so I guess I'm also unable to run the uninstaller :crying:

No, you have to use a Magisk patched boot with canary magisk. Not even close to the old way. No TWRP. Lot of info on here. You might want to start reading before jumping in.
Manually patching the boot image with the canary build "works" - as in - it shows Magisk installed in Magisk Manager and can grant Superuser to apps --- BUT, you can't write to system, so things like Adaway don't work, also Google Pay doesn't work. I'm not sure what you use root for, but this makes it fairly useless to me for now.

Android 11 Release

Android 11 has been released. Anyone upgraded yet on a rooted device?
Subscribing for root results.
I will try later in a bit and let you know the results.
I need food and drink and the files. Note anyone from India - Please dont download the A11 Files as it isnt for your device.

I'm guessing, take the OTA, install magisk to inactive slot, reboot and done?

Probably better to do that lol. My ota is sitting at 1.72gb so it would seem to be a full image.
Did the 1st flash... Didnt boot - Unlocked BL - Looks like nothing flashed to Partition A / Boot A.
Flashing again now ^^
I can't get it to root. I do a fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img and it fails every time. Anyone had any luck rooting this way?

Not working here either, we need to wait for Magisk update, most probably.

Yes, successfully rooted this way. I didn't play around with any of the betas so this was my first time to just dirty flash right over 10. I patched my own boot.img like usual and transferred it over to my adb folder before flashing. Since you're using MM Canary already, I don't know what to tell you. Maybe your patched boot.img is corrupt? Did you flash the full image or OTA? Next step for me (after creating a new patched boot.img) would be to clean flash the full image. Best of luck.
do you have a link to the canary apk?
I tried going to the canary page, but the download link is dead. TIA

Further down the page youll see it

---------- Post added at 20:29 ---------- Previous post was at 20:27 ----------
Also to add - Magisk Canary outputted a 4MB Boot Image which was wrong - Correctly patched it should be 32.55 MB roughly.
Make sure you pay attention that the boot.img has been patched properly.
I had trouble rooting but eventually got it to work. I deleted all previous boot images and patched images from phone and pc. Reinstalled platform tools. Grabbed fresh boot img from the factory image, patched it then flashed it. And we're in biz

Question Google Pay on 12s ultra?

I tried to install Google Pay on my unlocked (not rooted) 12s ultra and no success adding a credit card for the lack of certification/ fail Safetynet pass. So i rooted the phone (13.0.5) and I installed Zygisk and Safetynetfix...I was able to add some credit cards (not all of them) but no luck in using them to pay (generic error in the NFC operation). The wallet type is set on Google Pay and I gave all the permissions. Was anybody else able to use Google Pay on 12s Ultra?
Thanks in advance
I've added two cards to Google Pay. From two different banks. And no root on the phone. Worked like a charm
I hope you manage to get it working
Could you describe the root process?

Very simple, I extracted the boot.img file from the last ROM, I patched it with the last magisk version and I pushed the patched image with the fastboot command
