10) Enjoy!
Special thanks to Oneb1t for modded .fstab file! :highfive:
edit: you can use Flashfire app too instead of Flashify, but it's not recommended, because the latest version of the Flashfire app is not flashing properly.

Brilliant! Thank you so much! Do you know any custom ROM what is better than the factory ROM?

There is no custom ROM for this phone yet.
But I'm trying to make LITE ROM.

Do you think it's easier/possible to adapt a ROM from a similar device like say, the Alcatel
Pop 2 (5) Premium ? I don't know if there's any ROM for that phone tho, but since it's branded as Alcatel you might get more support from the community here than by using Vodafone's name.

Hello, Demonlord6.
I have tried to make a stock flashable ROM via dumping the system folder and the boot.img file, but without success.
It does not boot properly.. when I tried to flash it without dalvik/system wipe everything was as before.
When I tried to wipe /system and dalvik first and then flash the ROM, it causes bootloop.
So now I'm trying to fix this issue..
I don't know where the problem is.
So when this issue will be solved I will try to build a ROM from Alcatel phones with same specs.

Hey, Andreno306
I don't know much about Rom's in that level of expertise I'm afraid :/ but I did some digging and came across this simple tutorial on XDA:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2387941
I imagine it does not work for every single device out there, at least not with modifying stuff after, but it might be a good starting point I think, in fact I would try to actually make one myself had I a working PC currently at home. But even if I did I had no way of testing it because this is currently my daily driver phone.

Just wanted to say that I'm also very interested in getting a slim ROM for this device. I can't offer any expertise I'm afraid! Just wanted to show that there are people interested in your project.
:highfive:

But I recommend to restore it with the flashify app, because that's how the backup was made.
If, for some reason, you don't/can't restore it, then you can always try Sugar on the PC which basically restores everything to factory settings (recovery, kernel, etc, it all gets reset)

Restored and my phone keeps turning off after boot(once i saw the turn off screen, other times it just vibrates at boot screen), isnt it the wrong file? (flashed wia flashify)
I was able to restore the boot from TWRP (lucky i made a backup this time)

Sorry there about the bootloop but glad u could restore it from TWRP, maybe it was because we have different ROM versions ?

Yeap, that's not the same version as my ROM, mine is not 130FNN etc. Maybe that's why it didn't work

Sorry for the stupid question but... does it works on Smart Prime 7 too?

Has anyone installed that linked ROM? It seems to be what we are looking for... a slim debloated rom.
I presume we need to be rooted, install this TWRP, then flash that ROM?
It mentions unlocking the bootloader, I dont think I've seen any info anywhere about unlocking the bootloader.
Can anyone give a quick lowdown on all the steps required to install that ROM please?

Hi everyone, I discovered that Elephone Trunk and Smart Prime 6 have (almost) identical specs: https://www.devicespecifications.com...ison/c584481c6
So it would be great to "port" (or build ?) the official Nougat-OmniROM for Trunk to VF-895N: http://dl.omnirom.org/trunk/
Last but not least, here's official Vodafone Smart Prime 6 sources: Vodafone_Smart_prime_6_20150413.tar.xz

TWRP for vodafone smart max 4 990N (coolpad 8890u).
I tried this recovery image for vodafone smart max 4 990N (coolpad 8890u).
The phone is in a bootloop state. I think i have usb debugging enabled already.
So, in fastboot mode i can see the device in my pc in adb fastboot cmd.
Im trying to ''fastboot boot recovery.img" but it stops in ''booting..''.
Dont know whats the problem but for sure i can not find a specific twrp image for this device.
If i enter fastboot oem device-info it says ''(bootloader) Device unlocked: true''.
Any ideas ?

hi i was wondering if you could share how you did this or if you can make one for the Vodafone smart n9 (VFD720) it would help a lot of people out looking for this

Needed to root a Vodafone Smart Prime 6 (VF 895N) (got it from a friend because it became unresponsive from all the updated google play stuff ) to get linux-deploy running. Just wanted to leave a big thank you here for Adreno306 for his TRWP 3.0.0-0. it did the job very well!
Only the procedure to get it installed differed quite a bit for me, since Flashify is no longer available.
I wanted to preserve boot and just flash trwp to recover, what worked quite well.
The first thing I did was to boot the phone manually in recovery mode (Power+Vol up) and reset it to factory settings from there. It takes a little while. Then follow the setup, go to phone settings, enable developer mode and set usb debugging. If "unlock oem" is not available there, reboot into recovery again, set unlock there and reboot into bootloader.
The prerequisites are adb and fastboot, both must work. Means adb devices and fastboot devices must show the phone. What can make problems under win10 as it sometimes does not detect the phone in bootloader mode. An actual google usb driver is needed, as provided by google.
For me adb worked well, but when rebooted into bootloader with adb reboot bootloader, fastboot didnt detect the phone. With the phone still connected, the windows device manager showed an unknown device with and exclamation mark (!). Right click, install driver, select driver manually, select driver from device list, mark all devices (first entry) and click "disk", then point to the usb driver director and select "ADB fastboot driver". ( A more comprehensive description is available here )
Once adb and fastboot detect the device, it is time to prepare it. Boot to system (normal operation) first. Make sure that the TRWP 3.0.0-0.img is renamed to trwp.img and then
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot devices
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot boot trwp.img
Now the phone should show the trwp menu, set it up to root the phone and install SuperSU. Reboot into bootloader and
fastboot flash recovery trwp.img
fastboot reboot
Verify with adb reboot recovery, you should see trwp now. Reboot to system.
Now finally go into the app selector, start SuperSU, and root the phone. SuperSu uses trwp recovery mode to install its image and root is done.
Again, big thanks for providing the TRWP image!

How to Root Honor 8 FRD-L09 (NOUGAT 7.0 EMUI 5.0 With Bluetooth, NFC, system apps)

I had been struggeling myself alot with this but after looking everywhere I collected pieces of information all over XDA and fixed it.
Since all the information is scatterd around everywhere I thought it would be good to make a complete piece here.
I have only tested this with the device: (Honor 8 FRD-L09)
If anyone got this working on other devices please leave a comment so I can add it to this list for other people to see.
So here it goes:
1- First you need to be have an unlocked bootloader.
2- Flash via fastboot the new TWRP with decryption support Here
3- Download two files:
a- update.zip Link (1.5G)
b- update_data_full_hw_eu.zip Link(1.05G)
4- Flash these two files using TWRP (a then b)
5- Reflash TWRP (using fastboot)
Finally, to root, you need to flash this patched prerooted boot.img B378 root boot image (from SD card): Link(15.8MB)
You can do this with OldDroids TWRP or with surdu_petrus TWRP: Link(36.2MB) and Link(24,2MB)
1- Flash OldDroids or surdu_petrus TWRP
2- Select "Install" -> Click "Images" -> Go to External SD and select your rooted_b378_boot.img
3- When it asks where to install click boot.
4- Then reboot and install phh's superuser from the playstore (its the only superuser that works for now)
5- Install JRummy's Busybox Installer and install to /vendor/xbin
Done!
Note: To get AdAway working, go to Preferences, then scroll down to "Target hosts file" and set it to "custom target". Then set Custom target to "/vendor/etc/hosts"
If you have any questions feel free to send me a message I had much trouble with it too.

Quick Question: I have installed normal TWRP 3.1.0.0, every time i want to install the newest SuperSu Beta, it resets TWRP completely. Is your guide also going to work for me, or do i have another problem?

Yes SuperSU doesn't work as far as I know you need Phh Superuser.
But if you already have nougat 7.0 B380 you can just begin at the boot.img installing step and it should work for you too.
Good luck!

Ok, but you linked "twrp-3.1.0.0-eva", i've installed "twrp-3.1.0.0-frp" - do you know, where the difference is?
Edit:
Well, something has gone wrong. Doesn't boot...stays on that screen forever...i tried restoring the backup i took while the system was read only with TWRP

The difference is that the TWRP that I linked can flash .img 's
wich you need to flash the boot.img
Try to get back in TWRP and start at step 1 just do the whole guide then your phone should boot again

The "twrp-3.1.0.0-eva" is for the Huawei P9, the "twrp-3.1.0.0-frD" is for the Honor 8.
And first boot after TWRP install can take longer that usual:
Q: Why does booting take so long?
A: Because of the decryption process which need to finish
its work before twrp tries to access /data partition.

Try flashing the pre-rooted boot.img via fastboot command line.
Worked for me.
Code:
Copy the pre-rooted boot.img to the adb/fastboot directory
(have usb debugging enabled etc etc, connect phone to computer)
Start a cmd box
adb reboot fastboot
fastboot flash boot rooted_b378_boot.img
reboot device.

I can boot into TWRP no Problem, as i said, i restored the backed up image (somehow after a factory reset, the stock apps as well as the keyboard was gone, i could not type in my wifi password) in TWRP, but it sat for about 10 Minutes on that screen when i turned the phone off.
I do not have very good Broadband, so i will start at the first step, installing the update files, linked in the first post.

Yeah.. A FactoryReset seems to be a big "no no" after flashting TWRP as it will delete the keyboard and other stuff.
I was in that situation and restored a TWRP backup which got me back to booting into android, but somehow the Camera and LED (flashlight) didn't work.
Restoring an older and a complete backup did not help. Flashing the Update files did not help.
Eventually I ended up following the Honor 8 Rollback steps; going from Emui 5 (android 7) back to Emui 4.1 (android 6).
That also means the Bootloader is locked again, so you'll have to re-unlock it again (if you still have the code, you can use it again).
My steps after the Rollback:
- OTA updated back to Emui 5,
- Factory reset (BEFORE installing TWRP) and reboot.
- Enabled USB debugging,
- Unlock bootloader,
- Flashed TWRP and immediately after that I booted into recovery and rebooted,
- Rebooted to Fastboot (via adb reboot bootloader),
- Fastboot flashed that pre-rooted b378 boot.img and rebooted,
- Installed Phh's root.

I had the same as you describe here but I fixed it by flashing the 2 files I posted up here (a and b)

After doing it step by step as described in the first post, it worked I also flashed the P9 TWRP, just to make sure. It works! But i already miss Resurrection Remix from my Mi4c...
However, does this mean TWRP Backups are useless? :/

Hi,
maybe what I am going to ask sounds silly but as I am a kind of newbie hope you will forgive me
Why do we have to install a prerooted 378 image instead of a prerooted 380 Image. Aren't we on 380?
Where does this 378 image come from? Until now I only saw Nougat's 360 & 380 Roms.
I am already on 380 but my root doesn't seem to work properly so I wanted to give a try to thierrybla's OP's post but I don't know if to follow his instructions by using OldDroids TWRP to install his suggested prerooted 378 Image or instead by using OldDroids TWRP to install the other thread's Prerooted 380 img.
What shall I do if I'm already on 380 but would like to try thierrybla's procudure so see if I finally get a well-rooted 380 rom?
Any help would be appreciated.

Hey,
Your question is not stupid I can see why you are confused but everytime I tried to root or preroot something it didn't work for me I also run 380 and once I tried the prerooted 378 made by atariii it worked so there is no reason te be skeptical because I was in the same situation as you and this worked for me just give it a try you won't be disappointed

Thanks for your quick answer!!!
Ok, so I understand it is safe to install prerooted 378 image while being on nougat's 380. Thanks, I will try it right now!

Hey thierrybla, it worked beautifully! Thanks!
The only thing I did different is too install the prerooted image with Fastboot instead of the Oldroid Twrp.
I was afraid of messing my good working TWRP setup and decided to try what N01tra user suggested.
It worked like a charm! Thanks again!

Rooted, Custom Rom a huge fail

Hello dear Community!
It is depressing that my first appearance here is to ask for help, but I am going crazy.
So, I tried to Root my phone via Odin + CF Autoroot klte and it seemed to have been a success.
The root checker also said, that my device was rooted so I went on and installed TWRP to be able to install Lineage OS.
After getting Lineage to work I got a few error messages suddenly popping up, telling me that either "Music had stopped" or other android operation were closed because they didn't work properly.
I tried to install Gapps, it seemed to have worked but I was only able to open and enter the store once, afterwards the store never managed to load and then the app closed itself after starting it.
So I checked again with Root Checker, but this time it gave me an error message, too. It said, that my device was not rooted properly.
I guess this is were I made it worse by deciding to just root the phone again. Obviously, it didn't work either.
Afterwards I thought that maybe installing The Original Android OS and then unrooting the phone would be the best solution to be able to start anew.
First I tried to flah Lineage again and that made it impossible for me to boot the phone. The farthest I got was the setup page, were it tells you Hello and were you can choose a Language, but clicking the arrow key didn't do anything at all.
The recovery mode was also not the TWRP one anymore, but the original Android one and that was a huge problem for me.
Then I tried to flash the 6.1 OS for the S5 (I made sure it was the correct version), but now it is stuck at the "Samsung" screen while it boots.
It never boots though.
I don't know what to do anymore.
Please, I beg you, could anyone help me out?

Don't flash the latest Lineage OS ROM
Hello AsylumAlice u shouldn't have flashed the latest Lineage OS ROM because now u will need a new motherboard for your S5 since the ROM corrupts the MMC chip now u will need to get a new MMC chip or a new Motherboard sorry that your s5 is now hard bricked but when u get it fixed flash the DreamUX S8 Rom it works flawless on my S5 SM-G900i

What are the grounds for your claims?
You needn't root via CF-autoroot if your end goal was to flash lineage. CF autoroot was intended to root stock roms with ease and less effort.
Flash The LATEST, official TWRP via odin then do a FULL WIPE. Wipe system, data, cache and dalvik cache.
From here on, you have two options:
1.) Sideload the LineageOS rom via ADB
2.) Transfer it to the phone's storage via MTP and flash it from TWRP.
As for how to accomplish this, the forum search bar and Google has your back. You need only choose one procedure.
If you need the Play Store, flash gapps AFTER flashing LINEAGE AND BEFORE REBOOTING.
Since you were under the idea that utilizing CF-autoroot was a necessity, I suggest that you re-read this post thoroughly before actually putting it into practice.

You needn't root via CF-autoroot if your end goal was to flash lineage. CF autoroot was intended to root stock roms with ease and less effort.
Flash The LATEST, official TWRP via odin then do a FULL WIPE. Wipe system, data, cache and dalvik cache.
From here on, you have two options:
1.) Sideload the LineageOS rom via ADB
2.) Transfer it to the phone's storage via MTP and flash it from TWRP.
As for how to accomplish this, the forum search bar and Google has your back. You need only choose one procedure.
If you need the Play Store, flash gapps AFTER flashing LINEAGE AND BEFORE REBOOTING.
Since you were under the idea that utilizing CF-autoroot was a necessity, I suggest that you re-read this post thoroughly before actually putting it into practice.

Thank you so much for your fast reply!
-> I flashed the newest Version for klte via Odin, but I can't get into the boot mode.
I only am able to enter the download mode. What can I do now?

Flash TWRP via odin again, untick the Auto-Reset option of Odin first. Then try booting to recovery via long holding the power, home and volume up button simultaneously without releasing any of the buttons until you successfully see the TWRP splash screen.
If that still doesn't work, reboot to recovery via adb from download mode. You need the adb and the usb drivers for your device.
If that still doesn't work, you might have flashed an incompatible version of TWRP.

Thank you so much, it worked perfectly!
I can now start my phone and use it normally.
But the Root Checker still says:
"Sorry! Root access is not properly installed on this device.
Device: SM-G900M
Android version: 7.1.2"
What should I do from now on?
Thank you so much for your help (agaiN).
And as for why I used the auto-root, well I just followed a guide that I found, it only had positive reviews so I assumed it was a correct tutorial.

I thought about doing that, but wasn't sure how exactly to proceed and what Version to install.
I downloaded SuperSU v.2.82 and put it on my internal storage.
Just install over TWRP the same way that I Installed Lineage and Gapps I suppose?
I guess if it doesn't work out, I just follow the steps from above again and retry?
Thank you so much. I feel like in idiot in this situation.

oxygen updater won´t work aswell
thanks in advance

sry for my bad english i am german

Hi!
Are you trying to install a full OTA zip (1GB+ in file size), or a partial OTA (more around 50 MB - 200 MB) over your current 5.1.2 ROM?
At this point I would suggest you flash a full OTA zip of OOS 5.1.4, either through TWRP or OnePlus' recovery. @Titokhan provides a list of mirrors where you can download full signed flashable zips. Make sure to compare the MD5 signature of your downloaded file with the reference signature inscribed on the download page -- this makes sure your download is not corrupted.

OnePlus enabled Treble on the OP5 around stable release 5.1.5, and release notes for 5.1.5 stressed that the device should be on 5.1.4 before applying the 5.1.5 upgrade. The release notes for 5.1.6 also stressed that the user first upgrade to 5.1.5 before applying the 5.1.6 system upgrade. Based on that information, I would highly suggest you make sure your device works correctly on 5.1.4 first, then 5.1.5, followed by 5.1.6, and only then you upgrade to a later release.

so i flashed version 5.1.3 and it did work but when i tried to flash to version 5.1.4 TWRP was stuck in "Patching system image unconditionally..." did i do something wrong?
After i flashed to 5.1.3 the devices worked normal as always

Here's what I would do:
1. Flash 5.1.3 -- don't re-root, don't flash TWRP.
2. At this point, if you try to boot to recovery, you should have OnePlus' recovery. That's cool, just leave it that way.
3. Boot to system. Allow the system to find newer upgrades, and apply them using the system updater as they come.
4. When you're all updated again to latest release, follow instructions to TWRP and root the device.

You can try to use a VPN(app) which connects to another country to force the update. Or flash it with the stock recovery by downloading the file, place it in .ota folder and update it.

Yes you can, that's what I suggested already

My experience with the 5.1.4 update - ERROR 7 & Treble error fix
Hi, I have 3 OnePlus 5's in my household and I have gotten them all to update to 5.1.4, then 5.1.5, then 5.1.6+ with this method.
(5.1.4 and then 5.1.5 is needed before flashing 5.1.6 or greater).
In my experience, no matter what caches I cleared or what recoveries I had used, 5.1.4 was not flashable on all three devices with the bootloader unlocked. If you have the patience and time, this method should 99.99% work for you if done correctly (leaving a 0.01% chance of failure just in case it does fail lol but that shouldn't happen.)
1.) Firstly, back up your device. I suggest doing this by making a full titanium backup, and copying all the files on the internal storage to a folder on your computer.
This may take a while to copy. In my experience, the fastest way to copy all the data off to the computer is to boot the device into TWRP recovery, plug a good USB C cable in to the device and to the PC's USB port, unlock the device in TWRP (put in the password/pattern to decrypt and mount the data partition [Ignorable if you dont set a password on the device]), and use the adb pull command to pull the files off the device. I found that ADB pull works much faster than an mtp file transfer in windows explorer.
Steps for ADB pull:
Ensure adb is installed on the computer with adb drivers. For Windows, open command prompt or powershell as admin. Type in adb devices and hit enter. If your OnePlus device comes up, then all is good. Use the command (without the square brackets):
[ adb pull /sdcard "XXX/." ]
Replace XXX with a directory on your computer (for example, you can do [ adb pull /sdcard "C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Desktop\OnePlus/." ]
If anyone notices any issues with this command please let me know so I can update the post. I am writing this off memory, so there may be minor mistakes.
2.) After your device backs up and you're happy with the backup (i.e. everything you need backed-up is saved off of the phone onto the computer), It's time to relock the bootloader and restore the firmware on the phone.
I haven't tried a simple fastboot OEM relock command, so I cannot say whether that is sufficient enough.
What I did was follow this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/how-to/unbrick-tool-oneplus-5-t3648169
Download the Driver and the Oxygen version.
Once downloaded, extract the driver Driver_OnePlus5.zip file to its own folder. Extract the firmware to its own folder (cheeseburger_23_O.13_170803).
3.) Using the firmware restoring tool to relock the bootloader and restore the device to factory firmware condition.
Now:
Turn off your OnePlus 5 device.
Hold volume up key.
Plug USB cable in to the PC and the Type-C side to the device. Make sure only volume up is held whilst you do this.
Open device manager and check for missing drivers/driver issues. If the driver isn't detected, use device manager to browse for the extracted Driver_OnePlus5 folder you made earlier.
The LED light on the OnePlus 5 should be yellow if I can remember correctly.
Open msm download tool as an adminstrator (right click, run as administrator)
Click the start button on the top left of the msm download tool. (If nothing happens, make sure drivers are installed properly and that the device is in download mode [Repeat the above steps])
If successful, one of the "Device Type" should show your device connected {com device} and the download process and time row will update. Wait for the download progress to finish. The device will reboot on its own when completed. The status should turn green and say done/finished (If I remember correctly).
When your device reboots, do a quick setup. Don't bother putting your google account in or restoring anything if you plan on unlocking the bootloader later for TWRP or other reasons.
Unlocking the bootloader will wipe the phone. For now, just focus on the updates.
Connect the device to Wi-Fi. I found one of the devices I used this method on wouldn't connect to Wi-Fi (modem issue or something). Luckily, I had the 5.1.4 update already downloaded on the computer so I copied the update to the root folder on the device and used the local upgrade option in the OTA update options (in the phone system update settings). Updating the firmware fixed my Wi-Fi issue.
Basically, just do the OTA updates as you would normally. Start with 5.1.4, then you can do the 5.1.5. Do not jump to 5.1.7 because OnePlus only just added treble support in 5.14/5.15 releases so it is important do do those in order first. If you can, do 5.1.4, 5.1.5, 5.1.6 and then 5.1.7 in order. Just follow the updates that the OTA screen allows you to take.
Notes for the Pie update:
I haven't had issues installing Pie with the bootloader unlocked, so if you wish to stay on oreo for now and update later with an unlocked bootloader, that should be fine.
If your bootloader is locked, and you're on at least OOS 5.1.5, you should be able to flash the Pie OTA with the stock recovery without issues.
If you encounter issues installing Pie, and your bootloader is unlocked follow this:​
Unlocked bootloader - Pie Update - Removing compatibility.zip from firmware archive:​
Method 1: Pre-Removed compatibility.zip modified firmwares:
For STABLE:​Follow this link:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/how-to/official-oxygenos-4-5-2-7-1-1-ota-t3627003
Download " OxygenOS 9.0.0 Full Zip (modified, without compatibility.zip) ".
For BETA:​Follow this link:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/how-to/official-oxygenos-beta-1-android-oreo-t3710003
Download " OxygenOS Open Beta XX Full Zip (modified, without compatibility.zip) ".
You will need a Pie-compatible recovery. Download a compatible custom Recovery (TWRP) (Also available on https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/how-to/official-oxygenos-beta-1-android-oreo-t3710003 )
Flash a Pie-compatible TWRP and boot into it.
Copy the downloaded " OxygenOS Open Beta XX Full Zip (modified, without compatibility.zip) " to the device.
In TWRP, use: Wipe > Advanced wipe > Select dalvik-cache and cache > Swipe to wipe.
I would recommend taking a nandroid backup before proceeding, if you have any important data on the device.
Flash the downloaded " OxygenOS Open Beta XX Full Zip (modified, without compatibility.zip) ".
Wipe dalvik-cache and cache.
Enjoy Pie.
Method 2: Manual Method to remove compatibility.zip for unlocked bootloaders:
Download the FULL firmware OTA (from device settings, or from the OnePlus website).
Copy the firmware to the computer (If downloaded on the device, it will be in the ".ota" folder. Else, it is available on the OnePlus firmware downloads page.
Open the firmware archive with 7-Zip.
Delete Compatibility.zip from the archive.
Copy the now-modified firmware back to the device.
You will need a Pie-compatible recovery. Download a compatible custom Recovery (TWRP) (Also available on https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/how-to/official-oxygenos-beta-1-android-oreo-t3710003 )
Flash a Pie-compatible TWRP and boot into it.
In TWRP, use: Wipe > Advanced wipe > Select dalvik-cache and cache > Swipe to wipe.
I would recommend taking a nandroid backup before proceeding, if you have any important data on the device.
Flash your manually-modified OTA/firmware archive in TWRP.
Wipe dalvik-cache and cache.
Enjoy Pie.
DO NOT use winrar or any other non-recommended programs to remove compatibility.zip. I found that winrar causes treble errors or error 7.
4.) Re-unlocking the bootloader & Restoring your data.
Once you've installed 5.1.5 or greater, you can now safely go into developer settings and enable oem unlocking, and then reboot to the bootloader to unlock the bootloader (which will wipe/erase the phone data but keep the version to whatever you updated it to). You may then proceed to install TWRP, magisk if you plan on restoring with titaniumbackup, and restore all your sd card contents (or the sd card contents that you need) back from the computer backup the the device (I usually use ADB Push whilst booted in TWRP recovery because it copies quicker than MTP).
Updates should work from now on ( I was able to install android PIE Beta with the bootloader unlocked [See the Pie notes above]. Only had issues with the 5.14 / 5.15 updates with the bootloader unlocked ).
Hope this helps. If anyone has any more information, or questions about this method, do share. Like I said earlier, if done correctly, this method should definitely work for you guys.

Love you Guys:victory:
I did it and it worked first I flashed version 5.1.3 then version 5.1.4 and then I used the updater to upadate directly to version 9.0.0 and it worked :victory:

I keep loosing root after reboot, Pls help.

Hey guys,
first time posting here so i dont kow how to style the text, so sorry about that.
last time i rooted a phone was on my sony xperia sp , where all i had to do was to go to towelroot .com and click to root.
I tryed to root my OP6T yesterday, after some setbacks i managed to sucessfully do it.
I did it like this:
1. Downloaded full ROM of OOS 10.3.2,
2. copied the payload to a program called payload dumper that extracted the boot image.
3. Copied the boot image to the phone
4. opened Magisk manager and selected install from source where i chose the boot.img
5. it created a copy called magisk_patched.img
6. booted in fastboot
7. on my pc used the command prompt to "fastboot boot magisk_patched.img"
booted normally and i had root.
but then problem appeared
#Problem 1
everytime i rebooted my phone i would loose root and it would say Magisk not installed. To get it back i would need to perform step 7 again and it was not ideal to do that everytime i turned off my phone.
#Problem 2
While tryng to solve problem 1 i read that i needed to open magisk manager and "Install to Inactive Slot (After OTA)."
After doing that it rebooted but now it wont boot at all, even if i try to "fastboot boot magisk_patched.img" the cmd gives me error:
fastboot boot magisk_patched.img
downloading 'boot.img'...
OKAY [ 0.838s]
booting...
FAILED (remote: unknown command)
finished. total time: 0.845s
now my phone is just sitting there i dont want to reset it again. it would be the 4th time that i need to set up my phone in 2 days, so im trying to see if there are alternatives.
If reset is really the only way, i read that with root you can make a full backup of your phone and then restore it. How to do that? can i do it in the situation im in?
How can i root my OP6T running OOS10.3.2, and keep it? Whats the right method bc the one i followed seemed flawed.
I also tried one that had TWRP but maybe i did something wrong bc it didnt work., also there is no official one working for 10.3.2.

What is happening is normal with those instructions (they aren't right).
All you need to do is install TWRP. Do not use the official one, it is out of date. Use TWRP from this thread Link here. The TWRP from that thread is from the official maintainer. It works fine with OOS 10.
- You need to get the phone in fully working order again. Which may mean you need to use the fastboot ROM, as you've probably "goofed" something up at this point. (no offense meant). Make sure your phone boots and such after this.
- For OOS 10 with the phone in fastboot, fastboot boot recoveryimgfilename.img (<-- For OOS 10 you will need TWRP 3.3.1-32 Q Unofficial by mauronofrio from the thread I linked to above) This will boot to TWRP.
- Now run TWRP 3.3.1-32 Unofficial Installer by mauronofrio this will install TWRP. The installer is the same for Android 9 and 10, doesn't matter.
- Once the installer runs, click back, choose reboot to recovery. If you boot to the system, you have to start over. Reboot to recovery!
- Install Magisk 20.3 <-- The current version. The official download page. After that you can reboot to the system. You should now have a rooted, phone with Magisk, and TWRP installed.
Any questions ask.

Supposedly. I've never used that function of TWRP. Some people have luck with, some people restore things that shouldn't be restored and end up having to wipe the phone again. Personally I just use TitaniumBackup like I always have. I would search for information on that in the TWRP thread if you want to try method. I don't know enough on that to provide solid information.

Hey man,
Thank you so much. It worked and i stay rooted even after reboot.
May i ask how you use the Titanium Backup, i think back in the days all i used it for was uninstalling system apps. Or if you know some nice guides. If you know other good things to checkout now that i have root i would appreciate it, i have been far away from rooting for too long.
Once again thank you so much

I use it to back up app and app data primarily. It allows me to restore data to apps after a clean install. Since I have the Pro version it's just a batch action (one click essentially). There is also a way to create a flashable .zip you can use in TWRP, although I haven't tried that method, as I'm typically not restoring apps, just data. I also use it remove apps from time to time.

Hey man, im sorry i am once again in need.
Idk why but at first i can reboot the system normally without issues. but after a while once i set up everything it just doesnt boot anymore. Am i missing something? do i have to do anything with magisk? download a module or something?
Could it be that google security update is the fault?

When you installed everything originally did you fix everything with a clean install? Both slots are the same version of Android? (Like you don't have something weird going on like Android 9 on one and Android 10 on another?)
You definitely have something abnormal going on. There shouldn't be anything in Magisk that you have to do, at least not to prevent crashing. I normally hide it, but that has to do with keeping apps from detecting root.

I got it to boot by uninstalling magisk,
I am 100% sure i dont have two different version of android in different slots, bc yesterday i was in big trouble and nothing was working and i flashed on both slots the same version of android 10(dont remember exactly wich one as i tried a couple, but they were the same).
Today when i couldnt boot anymore i went into stock recovery, factory reset -> when it booted i placed the stockOS.zip file in the phone and applied update from local file -> after that i factory reset again from the system settings, so i think the phone should have installed it properly.
Only after that i did what you told me and installed TWRP and Magisk. and as i said it worked and i could restart my device etc..
After a while when i restarted i couldnt boot anymore and went to bootloader. Removing Magisk fixed it,apperantly on install magisk creates a copy of the boot.img that it restores on uninstall, and i booted to system.
Now i can use my phone but dont have root.
Im very thankful for you being there and helping me out trough this, i cant thank you enough

Not sure if you're still having this issue but I'll post the solution just in case anyone gets stumped, does a google search, and comes across this post. You were using the wrong command.
"fastboot boot" just lets you boot with the img so you can verify that root works.
"fastboot FLASH boot" will flash it and root will stick after reboot.
No need to jump through hoops with TWRP and such.
