[Guide] Keep root after OTA update on 6T - no PC required! - OnePlus 6T Guides, News, & Discussion

Hey everyone, sorry if this has been covered already but I don't recall seeing these instructions anywhere. After doing the standard tethered re-root every time there was an OTA update I discovered that you don't need to tether. I've been doing it this way for the past several updates and it has worked perfectly every time. Not sure if this will work for major version updates though. As usual, YMMV, back up your data, I'm not responsible for data loss, bricks, etc. etc.
Install TWRP and Magisk the usual tethered way the first time you root. There's no way around this.
When an OTA update comes out, allow it to download but do not let it install itself.
Download the latest TWRP Fajita zip to your device if you don't already have it. https://dl.twrp.me/fajita/
Reboot to recovery and decrypt if necessary.
Back up your data if you don't feel like living on the edge.
Hit the install button and browse to /sdcard/.Ota and select the latest zip, which was downloaded automatically earlier.
Tap the button to add another zip, and select the TWRP zip that you downloaded earlier.
Swipe to install, reboot when done. It is crucial to install both zips without rebooting in between, otherwise you'll have to tether.
After the post-boot update process completes, open the Magisk Manager app and hit the Install button for Magisk (not Magisk Manager). Choose to download zip only.
Reboot to recovery and decrypt if necessary.
Hit the install button and browse to /sdcard/Download and select the Magisk zip that you just downloaded. Swipe to install, then reboot.
Magisk app should now show Magisk is installed again.
Profit.

If we have twrp retention script we simply can retain magisk and twrp, i think everyone knows that

what is the twrp retention script? have you a link?

How to root Dr Ketan's Latest Nougat Rom N10 for Note 5?

@dr.ketan
I was finally able to install your rom. However I have not been able to figure out how root works on this exactly as of yet.
I tried to install a normal Supersu from google play but it says I don't have Root on my Rom yet.
Can someone help me out with this please?

I thought Dr. Ketan's N10 ROM was pre-rooted with either Magisk or SuperSU. Did you not have this option in the AROMA Installer? If not, here is some help..
I personally recommend Magisk for root. It's just as easy to use Magisk over SuperSU. Each root solution has its own dedicated app as well. To root with Magisk you will need the latest root zip which is V14.0 along with the latest Magisk Manager apk.
You can download the latest Magisk Manager apk and the latest Magisk V14.0 root zip from the link below...
https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/official-magisk-v7-universal-systemless-t3473445
Here you can read and learn all about Magisk too. Once you download both the root zip and the apk, transfer both to your internal storage.
Next, download the no_verity_opt_encrypt_5.1 zip from here...and transfer it to your internal storage.
https://build.nethunter.com/android-tools/no-verity-opt-encrypt/
(Its the second link from the bottom in the list)
Easy steps to root your device with Magisk..
Boot to TWRP Recovery
Select Backup and put a check in each box. That way if anything goes wrong you can restore the backup and have a working device.
Next, select WIPE - Advanced WIPE - Check both caches
Swipe to wipe both caches
Next, select INSTALL
Navigate to where you saved the root zip and select the zip.
Swipe to flash the zip
Click on the box to wipe the caches
Now, just in case, flash the no_verity_opt_encrypt_5.1 zip that you downloaded earlier.
Reboot your device. Once booted up, install the Magisk Manager apk. It will install as a normal app. Make sure you have enabled "unknown sources" in Settings - Lock Screen and Security so you can install apps outside of the Play Store.
Open the Magisk Manager app and set it up to your preference. It's very easy to use.
If you run into any issues don't hesitate to ask questions.
Good luck and happy flashing!

Pixel 2 devices + Magisk + TWRP - Easy OTA

I recently got a Pixel 2 XL and have been using Magisk right away. Because of the nuisance of updating I didn't update much in the past on my 6P with Magisk. On this device I'm determined to stay as up to date as possible when it comes to OTAs. I didn't have luck taking the January OTA using the recommended method on the Magisk site and I found many different methods. I decided this method was the most straightforward method for me. I'm sure others are already doing this, but I wanted to post my method of updating the device while keeping TWRP and Magisk.
-Make sure you have installed the platform-tools properly
-Download the desired FULL image from https://developers.google.com/android/images and extract the ZIP somewhere
-***IMPORTANT: REMOVE '-w' from the 'fastboot update' line in the flash-all.bat (this will stop it from wiping the device)
-Remove 'exit' from flash-all.bat
-Make sure you have already downloaded the latest Magisk ZIP (should be under '/sdcard/MagiskManager', ex. 'Magisk-v15.2.zip')
-Power off device
-Boot the device into fastboot (power + down)
-Run flash-all.bat
-Let phone boot into the OS
-Power off
-Boot the device into fastboot (power + down)
-Install TWRP (using instructions from https://twrp.me/Devices/Google/)
-fastboot boot *TWRP.img path*
-adb push *TWRP.zip path* /
-Install twrp.zip via TWRP interface​-While still booted in TWRP, install Magisk ZIP via TWRP interface (ex. '/sdcard/MagiskManager/Magisk-v15.2.zip')
-Wipe cache/dalvik
-Reboot
You don't even need TWRP to take the OTA, Magisk has a built in way to take OTAs and still retain magisk.

The reference to TWRP wasn't meant to imply that TWRP is required. I was just stating the easiest method that I used for a user who has a Pixel 2 device with Magisk AND TWRP. I was unable to take the OTA with Magisk after following the instructions on https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/blob/master/docs/tips.md and that it is why I went this route.
Simple and straightforward, thanks mate! I'll give it a try.
Of course being an OTA it keeps all my stuff after I remove "-w" right?
Finally got around to trying this, it worked great!
hey mate i used these instructions to install the May OTA on my Pixel 1 and worked a treat. I would add at the start to remove any substratum overlays if used.
Also I uninstalled magisk before the process but not sure if you need to?
p.p.s. can a git please message this guy to re-test or remove his instructions here because there's multiple reports that they don't work!

Shouldn't have to remove anything because you are doing a full flash of the stock OS. It will just overwrite anything that is there.

Marshmallow
---Working on a method---
(Won't stop until I have every update rooted.)
Marshmallow is currently unrootable on the G900A and G900V (CID 11). A method will likely appear in the future.
It is safe for you to flash to the latest Marshmallow, you will be able to restore the experimental combination to root again.
Notes: This guide is an updated version of AptLogic's Guide. ( Can a mod please sticky that thread )
I have created this thread as an "elimination of confusion"/"Catch All" and I will update the thread once I get root on Marshmallow , https://forum.xda-developers.com/att-galaxy-s5/general/guide-merry-christmas-heres-t3516196.
Thank you to AptLogic and everyone involved in the development of root for this device.​

It has not worked for me or something I did wrong
please help me
Since I can downgrade my S5 to kitkat does that mean that I can use the CyanogenMod build for kitkat on the s5 or will it brick my phone ?
First off, thank you so much for this guide! I recently got an old Galaxy S5 from my Dad, and rolled it back to KitKat using these instructions.
I'm experiencing two rather strange issues, though.
1) KitKat doesn't seem to be remembering my Wi-Fi password. I'm having to re-enter it every time I reboot the phone.
2) I'm getting a message on booting that "Safestrap is disabled. System will start in 10 seconds." The system starts like it should, but this message pops up every time. Is this normal, or will something correct it?
Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks!
The Google Drive links are dead. Could we get new ones please @Justin1198?
Thanks in advance!

[GUIDE] OTA updates with Magisk

If you have managed to root your phone with Magisk, getting updates after that for the stock ROM isn't always a smooth thing. Here are some steps to be successful with updates.
1. Open Magisk Manager and disable all installed modules by unchecking the circle for each.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Please note that steps 2-4 can be done with the stock 1+ updater so long as it senses that you are rooted and offers to download a full rom. So a note about magisk hide which is used to hide root. Make sure you haven't managed to hide root for any process related to the 1+updater or it won't know you are rooted and will offer incremental updates.
2. Install Oxygen Updater (This app may become abandoned in 2019 requiring the use of the stock updater which is slower or manually downloading roms.) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.arjanvlek.oxygenupdater
3. Open the app, verify that your device is identified correctly. Open it's settings and set Update Method to "Full Update"
4. Check for an update and download it. Make sure you end up with a full 2GB ROM image not an incremental small one. It will be in the root of internal storage.
DO NOT use Oxygen Updater to update the phone (unless you have TWRP and that is for a different GUIDE)
5. Open the built in OnePlus updater: Settings - System - System Updates - Gear - Local Upgrade and select the newly downloaded update. TAKE NOTE while it is installing which slot it is installing too. It will say something like "inactive slot a". Remember this as it is the "new" slot.
6. After it has installed DO NOT reboot the phone or you will lose root. Open Magisk Manager and install Magisk, even though it says "installed". Select the option when it prompts for "after OTA". This will install magisk in the boot partition of the new slot.
7. Reboot and If all went well you shouldn't boot loop and you'll be running the new slot. If you want TWRP (optional), install the zip now from Magisk->Modules->+ (sign) then select the TWRP zip file and install it. Do NOT reboot. Then do a "Direct Install" of Magisk again, then reboot.
8. Open Magisk Manager and go to the downloads section and reinstall the modules you want to use. Do this from the Downloads screen or using the + button on the Modules screen. This will install them in the current slot.
DO NOT simply reenable the modules with the check mark or you will boot loop. Some modules aren't listed in Magisk and can't be automatically moved from slot to slot. If you installed one of those previously, you must reinstall it with the plus button manually from the modules tab.
You should be done now.
Oh no I'm boot looping: Don't panic.
1. Make sure you have adb/fastboot 1.4.3 or newer on a PC https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2317790
2. Boot the phone into Bootloader/fastboot either through the recovery menu or VolDn + Pwr
3. If in step 5 above the inactive slot was "a", issue the command from a PC command prompt:
fastboot --set_active=b
or vice versa
fastboot --set_active=a
If you are not sure which to use try one or fastboot getvar current-slot
4. Then: fastboot reboot
This will allow the phone to boot into the last good ROM version. Now you figure out what went wrong.
Another option If your phone didn't retain root, you can stay in the unrooted slot. download a rooted boot image of your firmware version, place it in the your fastboot pc directory, reboot the phone to fastboot and issue the command: fastboot boot boot.img (or whatever the downloaded image is called.) this is a temporary root that is non destructive. Then do a direct install from Magisk manager even though it already says installed. That will permanently root your boot copy. Then install your modules.
Here is the 9.5.11 1917AA rooted boot image https://www.dropbox.com/s/6csxd9zaa4mihwk/boot_a_backup_2019-08-04_19-05-29.img?dl=0
If your phone looped right after flashing, you may not have disabled Magisk modules properly. You can still disable them from the good slot, swap active slots again using fastboot and see if it boots into the new ROM. If not, swap back to the good old slot again and start over flashing again from the beginning.
If you looped after reenabling your modules, it is possible you only enabled one but didn't install it into the new slot. Again swap back to the good slot and disable the modules. Swap back to the new slot and install the modules again even if Magisk thinks they are there.
If all else fails, you can stay in the good old slot until you sort things. If you are looping in both slots then something really went bad and you have to flash back a full ROM from fastboot. See this thread
https://buzzfire.de/xda/t3931424
Then root again using the rooted boot image above.
You may be able to boot into the old rooted slot and root the new slot with the ota option also.
If you have issues where stuff like Wifi doesn't work, then somewhere along the line or previously you flashed a (boot) image that didn't match the /system image in the slot you were working on. This error will persist in that slot every time you use that slot until it gets a fixed set of images.
Hope this helps!
I updated to 9.5.7 yesterday with following process, which was very simple (also used the same exact process to update to 9.5.6 last week):
Note: This assumes your device is already bootloader unlocked and has developer options enabled.
Download latest twrp.zip to your phone
Download latest magisk.zip to your phone
Download latest twrp.img to your pc
Allow oxygen updater to download/install OTA. It will say 'your device is rooted, a full image will be downloaded'. (If you're not already rooted, this process will still work)
After it completes the installation, do not select reboot. Instead, hold power button and press reboot to bootloader (make sure you enabled Advanced reboot in settings to see that option)
In fastboot and connected to pc, run from pc: fastboot flash boot twrp-3.3.1-3-guacamole.img (or whatever latest version is - you need to do this step because the OTA wipes out twrp if you already had it installed)
Reboot phone to twrp recovery
Flash install the twrp.zip you downloaded above
Flash install the magisk.zip you downloaded above
Reboot System
Done
Using this method, I haven't needed to change the slots at all, as the OOS updater takes care of that and the twrp/magisk flash installs each to both slots. This method preserves all data/settings/root (but I still do a twrp backup just prior to doing the update). I had tried the magisk install OTA to inactive slot option a few times but it never worked for me. This method also eliminates the need to download any patched boot images.
If you are on bootloop, just simply flash magisk_uninstaller.zip on twrp
boot into system > then flash magisk on twrp again.
Perfect manual and working great

You Sir are the good damn man i have spent 3hrs trying to update to 9.5.9 cheers boss!!
Will this method work if I was a TMobile OnePlus 7pro which converted to international running 9.5.8 currently?
Yes if you are offered the aa rom in the updater
@larsdennert I guess you may well know about this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-7-pro/help/oxygen-updater-shutting-november-t3948339
I just start the update under settings, system, syst update
It found new update and tell me he need to download full ROM (I have rmagisk installed).
While it was downloading full ROM I uninstall magisk from magisk app.
After update finish before restart I installed magisk again (option after ota update) and restart.
Now I'm updated and with magisk installed

Yes I'm thinking, In the worst case it may be possible to use the stock updater as it senses root and downloads the full update now. Simply substitute the step where oxygen updater is used to download with the stock updater.
There may be a slightly longer delay before the stock updater offers an update as 1+ does it in waves. I have to hand it to 1+for even offering updates as most phones won't.
hi experts,
what and where to set or unset to make sure there is NO auto OTA update?
How do I control the update time on my op7p?
I'd like to avoid surprise of getting update in background that would / can remove root, magisk and etc that were manually added?
as example I use xXx over magisk and I's like to be prepared ahead of time to apply the OTA update
thanks for the education.
The 1+ updater has a setting to auto download updates or not. You can change it.

I used a method that didn't require uninstalling Magisk modules or even booting into recovery (unless you have issues):
1.) Download FULL OTA from 1+ updater (should be approximately 2gb)
2.) Disable all Magisk modules and substratum themes
3.) Install OTA manually via the system updater in Settings > System > System Updates > Gear in upper right > Local Upgrade **DON'T REBOOT!!!**
4.) Search for TWRP Retention Script in Magisk, install **DON'T REBOOT!!!**
5.) Re-install Magisk from the main page in Magisk Manager App (OTA Option) **REBOOT**
6.) Re-enable Magisk modules and any substratum themes **REBOOT**
If you get stuck in a bootloop due to a Magisk module causing issues (EdXposed did this to me) you can:
Boot Into Recovery (Volume Down + Power Button) > Advanced > File Manager > Navigate to data/adb/modules > Click module you want to disable / delete > Hit bottom right checkmark > Delete > Hit Home > Reboot System
Magisk modules I'm currently running in 9.5.10 with no issues:
- Google Dialer Framework
- Google Product Sans
- liboemcrypto disabler
- OnePlus Google Launcher
- Renovate Ice
- Substratum
- ViperFX
- xxxNoLimitsxxx

I assumed it was and disabled it first, did a reboot and booted up fine. It was a good guess
Best bet would be to delete all modules and start from scratch if you're not sure. It depends what kinds of modules you run.
I had issues of bootloop where I would get past the unlocked message and boot up animation but then would freeze with my background showing only (no launcher, no status bar, etc).

I was running Riru Core, edXposed and ended up dropping both, it wasn't worth the hassle for me since I run Renovate Ice and it does most of the tweaks I want from GravityBox (reason I was running Xposed).

Try disabling all the modules and see if you can boot into 9.5.10 slot. If it does, reinstall them (then reenable them)

Update: I had to download and install it through built in updater function as a full update. But I'm now on beta 10
Can someone tell me how to update without loosing root? Last time I did it (with magisk retention script) I ended up in bootloop and had to reset my whole device.

I just follow this steps and I safely update with keeping my root and twrp. (Thanks to @HippoMan)
To be clear and complete, these are the steps that I followed (there are a couple of minor clarifications here to what I wrote in my earlier message on this subject) ...
1. Download the ROM and copy it onto the top-level directory of your sdcard. I got OB10 via the Oxygen Updater app, and it also can be found elsewhere.
2. Uninstall all Magisk modules
3. Reboot
4. Go to Settings->System->System Updates and click on the little gear on the upper right. Then, select Local upgrade, select the ROM on your sdcard, and start the installation
5. After the installation is complete, *** DO NOT REBOOT ***
6. Run Magisk Manager, go to Downloads, and then search for, download, and install the TWRP A/B Retention Script.
7, After this module installation is complete, *** DO NOT REBOOT ***
8. Immediately go to the main page of the Magisk Manager, and in the "Magisk is up to date" section, select INSTALL->INSTALL->Install to inactive slot(After OTA)
9. After this completes, reboot.
10. Your device should come back up rooted and with OB10 shown in Settings->About phone->Build number
11. If you have been using Smurf, boot into recovery and flash it again. Then, reboot back to System (I'm not sure whether reflashing Smurf is actually necessary, but it doesn't do any harm).
12. Reinstall all your formerly installed Magisk modules. You'll notice that the A/B Retention Script is not showing as "installed", and this is correct. It is just used as a one-time setup before the Install to inactive slot step, described above.
Steps 1 through 11 took less than 30 minutes, with steps 1 and 4 taking the longest. I have a number of Magisk modules, so step 12 took maybe 10 minutes more, because I rebooted after each individual Magisk module was reinstalled, in order to make sure that its installation was successful.

Shouldn't be that difficult.
Download the full zip from OP
Remove all the current Magisk Modules just to be safe
Boot into TWRP
Flash the OTA zip
Flash TWRP 76 zip
Reboot into Recovery
Flash Magisk Canary Zip
Boot to system
That's what I always follow, and it has never failed me.
With each update icons, fonts and whole UI seems to be larger and larger. It looks awful.
1- uninstall Magisk modules.
2- install Oos stable/open beta with Settings > Local upgrade . DON'T reboot!!!
3- back to Magisk > Downloads. Install TWRP A/B Retention Script. DON'T reboot!!!
4- back in Magisk. Touch install. Choose (Install to inactive slot after' OTA)
5- reboot to system.
Now you have latest Oos ob10, twrp 3.3.1_79 & Magisk Canary root. I updated this way from ob5...
I was on Oos 10.0.4, twrp 3.3.1_76, Magisk Canary form 12.02.2020.
using the LIV DARK substartum theme on oneplus 7 pro after the update on oxygem beta 9 and beta 10 when i apply the theme to the call dialer the theme is applied to the contacts and when i open the call dialer it does not open the failure message. .
No thanks , I will stick with Open Beta 8 all day long

Are you using the dialer beta version? I had to change to normal/stock dialer and it works fine. Same theme, Liv dark
Also make sure to uninstall all layers and then reboot. Then you should try to apply the layers
When you boot or reboot your phone you too have a bug that the display won't turn on and you need to press tge power button to make the screen turn on?

I have had this issue for a while. Don't know what is the cause and didn't see reports on it. Also, I can tap on the screen while it is still black (after reboot) and PIN would be pressed!
