I own the 6GB Ram version of the phone and wants to root it so as to use Titanium backup to restore all the contents of my previous phone.
But the Problem is that we are still going to get some big OTA updates regarding camera and maybe more bug fixes.
I know the general procedure for rooting the device i.e. first unlock the bootloader then install a custom recovery then root.
I just wanted to ask if I just install back the stock recovery after rooting the device then will I get the Ota updates?
And I am sorry if any similar question has already been asked, I searched but didn't find any. Thanks

im using twrp and magisk for root. i still get OTA updates. but only the full updates, the 1,5 gb size
after that i need to flash twrp again and then install magisk again too.
but no data lost or anything so if you can live with that, its no biggy.

Can you throw some more light on this.I just want the latest updates. Download size etc doesn't matter.
Can you tell me the procedure what you do to retain rooted access and still get latest updates.? Thanks

i assume you know how to get root ? unlock bootloader, flash twrp, install magisk or supersu ?
well from there its just the same.
getting ota updates see attachment.
after the update you are back to stock recovery without data lost.
so just flash twrp again and install root again, thats all.

1. Unlock Bootloader and Flash TWRP
2. Flash and Download APK Magisk 13.3 (Root + Pass SafetyNet)
3. If there is a new update go to OnePlus 5 Downloads
4. Boot into TWRP and Flash the new update.
5. Everytime you flash a new update you must also flash Magisk Root.
6. Done

You don't have to flash twrp recovery again.
You can flash a root zip right after flashing the full OTA package
Hello,
I have a big problem. I don't know what to do.
I wanted to make a clean install of OxygenOS 4.5.8 and so i downloaded it, did it on SD card together with Magisk and no_verity_op5.zip (because i read that this decrypt the data).
So i cleand data and installed no_verity_op5.zip via TWRP, but when i wanted to reboot it takes way to long (i waited 30minutes but it stays on boot circle)
After that i booted into TWRP and decided to made a factory reset and to install OxygonOS 4.5.8 in a clean version. But it was not possible anymore!
When i want to install the .zip it says Patching system image unconditionally... and it loads. after the blue is full it says:
writing static_nvbk image...
patching firmware images...
script succeeded: result was [1.000000]
And when i want to boot into system it says no OS installed.
I tried also to flash this rom or even any other custom rom through ADB Sideload but it does not work. Same like above..
What can i do? I do not know what to do
I hope my phone is not bricked.
Thank you for any suggestion.
Go to oneplus 5 official download page, download stock recovery and latest stock firmware and follow instructions on the download page.... But first with TWRP take a backup of all your data because restoring stock firmware will ERASE everything... Don't panic it will works
First off, don't panic! you're not bricked as long as you can reach your bootloader and recovery.
This happened to me as well and luckily the fix is easy!
You probably tried to flash the OxygenOS build from the Oneplus downloads right?
Somehow these won't flash properly through TWRP and you must therefore also flash the Oxygen recovery image listed in the downloads.
Here are some steps that'll fix your problem.
1 - Backup all of your private data from internal storage because flashing OxygenOS will WIPE/ENCRYPT all data on your device.
2 - Go to the Oneplus download center and download both the latest OxygenOS and it's appropriate recovery:
http://downloads.oneplus.net/oneplus-5/oneplus_5_oxygenos_4.5.8
3 - Boot into your bootloader and flash the stock recovery you just downloaded. (fastboot flash recovery <recovery>.img)
4 - Boot into the Oxygen recovery and flash OxygenOS.
This should get you up and running again.
Once you get tired of OxygenOS simply reboot back into your bootloader and flash TWRP and any rom of your liking.
In the future if you want to flash OxygenOS from TWRP you have to grab a build from XDA I guess. I'm not entirely sure why flashing from within TWRP won't work with stock OOS but I believe it expects to be flashed from withing the stock recovery.
I'm pretty confident this will solve your problems.
Please backup your data first though, don't want anything to get messed up in there!
Good luck!
Ok thank you.
i will try it.
So you are right, i tried to install OxygenOS with TWRP.
So is it not possible to have official OxygenOS with TWRP, Magisk and Root?
So i cannot backup OxygenOS with TWRP?

It is possible to have both OxygenOS and TWRP for sure!
Only a clean flash from a non-encrypted state in TWRP seems to break stuff. You can use a modified OOS build from the forums.
TWRP can indeed backup your OOS install so that shouldn't be a problem.
The only exception seems to be flashing a clean install of OxygenOS (from Oneplus Download center) through TWRP.
Other than that everything works as expected.
Ok thank you.
So i will follow you instructions and i hope it will work.
And i think so.
And after it i will install TWRP again (because i need the backup tool), i will install magisk. will this work?
So i can use everything as in a custom rom, but cannot make a clean install? So official Oneplus OTA will work with TWRP or not?
Thank you soooo much!
Also, Magisk/root works just fine on OxygenOS.
Once you flashed OOS from the stock recovery and have everything set up simply boot into your bootloader and flash TWRP.
From there you flash Magisk and everything should be fine.
OTA's from Oneplus also install fine through TWRP as long as you go into Magisk and uninstall 'root' first. When OxygenOS tells you there's an update simply remove Magisk as I said above and it'll update fine.
Ok thank you!
It worked!!!!! I am very happy!
So i will now install TWRP, and then magisk (newest version).
I have a question, because the last time i installed magisk it did not fully work.
If i install it i have root or? But how can i get saftynet in magisk?

First off! YAY!! glad it worked out!
Be sure to use the TWRP build from the twrp.me website. The one listed on these forums are 'unofficial'. Not saying those are bad, but the official one has a pretty impressive track-record.
After flashing Magisk you are root-enabled so yeah, congrats you are now root! In order to pass safetynet you must enable 'magisk hide' in the magisk manager (the app that should now be installed on your phone).
If you do not have an app called 'magisk manager' then you can download this app from the magisk forums. It should however install itself while flashing the Magisk zip. So assuming you have it installed find the 'magisk hide' service and enable it.
From my experience you sometimes need to reboot in order for it to pass safetynet check.
Glad it all worked out for you!
Everything worked!
Now i have OxygenOS 4.5.8 (with OTAs in future), magisk + root + saftynet and i can install something throug TWRP and backup.
SO PERFEKT.
You are a hero

Hi,
I've downgraded my phone ZE520KL couple months ago but I've forgotten that VOLTE is only available on 7.0...
I've recieved the OTA notification, downloaded the package on the phone, but when it reboots it is going on TWRP & then if I'm rebooting it doesn't continue the upgrade process.
What am I missing? (on my previous phones this wasn't so tricky...) Should I use the Install method directly from TWRP? If Yes on which zip? Is it possible to find the one that I've downloaded directly with my phone?

Same like me before. Have you rooted your phone yet? if yes then try this, it work for me though (Backup your phone is recommended)
1. Download busybox, supersu and no-verity file
2. Using flashfire app, choose flash zip or ota option
3. Add ota 'WW-ZE520Kl-.....'
4. Add firmware 'UL-ASUS-....'
5. Remove tickmark from 'Inject supersu'
And flash, it will reboot but do not boot to system. You must boot to twrp, flash no-verity file, busybox and supersu or your phone will not boot. Then reboot, done.
If this method is helpful, do reply to me
Btw, sorry for my poor english.

Thanks, works wonderfully! Flashfire flashed the new OTAs successfully but the phone didn't then boot (or it bootlooped). A quick Google search led me to your response and the dm-verity file fixed the boot!
I also didn't flash Busybox in case you needed to know and before flashing the OTAs I checked the "Automount" and "Mount systeam as R/W" in Flashfire otherwise the app would just get stuck in a blank screen.
EDIT: WiFI isn't working, tried already deleting the files in /data/misc/wifi, /persist and /data/misc/dhcp as suggested in various threads but still nothing. Anyone know how to fix it before I attempt to do a full backup and wipe?

Deleting files in /data/misc is not helped. Try this:
1. Check your selinux permissive or enforcing. If permissive, you should re-root your phone. Remember to flash busybox too or it will may some crash. Still not working follow step 2.
2. Re-flash the ROM using twrp. No data will be lost. Don't forget to re-root or it will not boot.
3. Try the lastest fw .68 or .75 though someone told that the .28 ota file had issue on wifi.

Reflashing through TWRP worked Although I did it after backing up all the apps and did a factory reset which didn't even fix the wi-fi problem. But then Flashfire is useless if TWRP is capable of flashing OTAs right?

Not really. Since OTA file can't flash through twrp. It really annoying for someone (like me ), so for the easiest way is just flash it using Flashfire, no need to use computer to flash stock recovery .

yep, that's what I've been saying for months. I've never used anything but TWRP to flash my phone. I've downgraded, gone custom and back to stock many times.

Yeah that's what I encountered aswell back 2-3 years ago, I remember I couldn't flash any OTAs via TWRP but apparently now you can. That's why I also used Flashfire in the first place but after running out of all options for the wi-fi problem I decided to give TWRP a try et voilà, it worked

I JUST did it....on 1711.75 now. There was no recovery partition update either so I didn't have to reflash TWRP after :good:
I did have a bootloop issue after but fixed that by flashing the no-verity file. I'm not sure if that's related to having magisk installed though.

1. After reflashing rom through twrp, i lost my twrp. Oh, but when i use Flasfire, it isn't lost.
2. Not sure but after flashing ROM your boot will change to normal so it may not related to magisk or supersu. Maybe it beacause of the twrp, i've tried reflash stock recovery once and i can updated it without flash no-verity file though i've installed magisk.

1. You will only lose TWRP if there is a recovery partition update in the stock firmware, yes, but that doesn't happen with every update. I think I read of a way to block it from updating the recovery partition but can't find the article right now. If flashfire works, use it, I just like TWRP for the other features like making and restoring nandroid backups.
2. I dirty flashed the update again through TWRP, verified the bootloop issue and then installed magisk (through TWRP) and it resolved the bootloop issue. No-verify file not required.

1.Ok, i got it.
2. The way using TWRP is keep the root ( root or not boot) and stock recovery is contrary ( can't root but will boot) or just flash custom kernel through twrp (not root required).
simple question :
- you are talking about OTA & Firmware...
I've downloaded again from asus website Version WW-V14.2020.1711.75 (I assume it is the latest firmware). Are you simply giving the example of an OTA that is released post the firmware version I have to install to have the 7.0 base?
Or is it anything that I'm missing...
From your explanations I should only :
- install flashfire
- flash the latest firmware
- boot into TWRP & flash no verity
- reboot the system
Right?

Yep, you can also flash the latest .zip via TWRP instead of using Flashfire, it's 100% working for me. Just REMEMBER to flash the no-verity file otherwise you'll end up in a bootloop.

The safest and true way to flash any ota update without any issues by using stock recovery, don't use twrp or flashfire or any other apps.
follow the steps below:
1. When you are rooted and twrp installed, to getback to full stock boot and recovery without wiping data, flash the latest raw image available. For oreo the latest available one for ze520kl is WW_ZE520KL_15.0410.1712.31_M3.10.47.16_Phone-user.raw.zip.
2. Now flash the ota update available normally via stock recovery.
3. Flash oreo support twrp-3.2.1-0 and magisk zip.
4. Done.
I'm periodically upload the latest available ota update for ze520kl in the ze520kl ota update links thread.
Here is the latest one.
fastboot flash recovery OrangeFox-R10.1_1.img

Uninstall Magisk with the .zip from their site. Github here
Instal stock recovery like you did to install custom recovery.
Next, download the C.27 update and run it from the file manager. Phone will reboot and start updating
After update, just do the whole process to root C.27 version like for Android 9.

I tried several thins to install Magisk succesfully with no luck.
I received my Global x2 Pro this thursday and i successfully unlocked the bootloader and flashed twrp recovery. But when I flask the magisk 20.4 zip and reboot my device, i get an error saying that my boot / recovery partition is corrupt. I have to install C27 again from twrp and it boots up.
Can anybody help me how to install Magisk succesfully? It's driving me nuts. Also, i cant download the vbmeta.img from the OP. So i tried to extract the vbmeta.img from the c27 image to flash, but also no lucck
Edit: Finally having it working with the Orangefox recovery with the vbmeta.img. I thought that the link in OneDrive wasnt working, but it was my home networks which was blocking OneDrive. Problem solved!

It's possible if someone makes a flashable zip, though I dont know of that can be done for every phone. Otherwise you need a stock recovery to install the OTA.

Like @adsubzero said. Unless you have a custom ozip file to flash on TWRP, you need to have stock recovery to install a standard ozip.

I have unlocked bootloader + root with magisk. Is there anything special I need to do before letting the OTA update? What about afterwards, will I need to re root?
Sorry if this question was already asked and answered- I couldn't find anything. Just want to make sure I'm not doing anything stupid, thanks in advance.
For clarity I'm on the latest magisk canary and am using a U.S. phone.

If you're on ob3 I read that it needs to wipe, if you're on 11.0.0 stable then just update, don't reboot, disable magisk modules, patch after OTA in magisk and that's it

Sounds easy enough. Should I also worry about flashing back to stock kernel as well?

If you update then the kernel gets done too.
If you have modules installed disable them first.
You'll be fine.
PS: so are you on ob3 or 11 stable?
I'm rooted with an unlocked bootloader on 11.IN11AA (Global). How do I perform a local upgrade without the OTA file to put into the root folder? It seems like the Global version of the OTA file is nowhere to be found and I can't download it via System Update since it fails due to root. Do we need to just wait for the 11.0.1.1.IN11AA OTA zip file to be posted? Thanks in advance.
Yes, looks like we are in waiting mode for it to show up...

Stable. Haven't done the update yet because I'm getting "installation problem" when I try to download OTA. Oxygen updater not working either. Not sure what's up lol but I'm over it. Guess I gotta go find the file and install locally.

You'd have to install locally even with oxygen updater.

Yea I guess that's why Oxygen Updater isn't showing anything new for me. Once it shows up on the internet, I'm sure the OU app will refresh and show an available update.

I have unlocked bootloader + root with magisk. Is there anything special I need to do before letting the OTA update? What about afterwards, will I need to re root?

For those with trouble installing 11.0.1.1 AA update with root as Google server only pushed incremental OTA at the moment.
1. Flash your current version unpatched boot.img into both slots in fastboot
2. Use the following command to boot from a patched boot, but not modifying the partitions. (fastboot boot patched.img)
3. Update with system updater with incremental ota.
4. Don't reboot, but flash the magisk with magisk app to the inactive slot.
5. Reboot and done.

I just updated and kept root. I used to use this method on my Pixel 2 XL when I didn't want to flash the images, or was away from my PC.

The link should work now.
Disregard the TWRP part (skip Step 4....go from Step 3 to Step 5).

Thanks for these steps, it worked for me. After I flashed Magisk via the Magisk App to the inactive slot, I rebooted and had the latest version installed with root preserved. :highfive:
After I did it I'm getting the com.android.phone stopping and my Sims aren't recognized. I cleared cache, phone and SIM toolkit but didn't work. Grrrrr
I'm a rooted global user and update has never showed until today. It was only 405mb and Google play services was showing the update. Oxygen updater shows nothing and system update shows nothing. I'm gonna wait to see what happens since it's not a full update
Same here global 406 mb ota. It's like not recognizing we have root...

^^^^^^This -- easiest and fastest root upgrade I have ever done on any device.
Magisk is now built to do it this way.

This worked for me as well taking the actual partial OTA update from system update and going through the steps in Magisk.
A little nerve wracking considering the many times trying to update has failed on my last couple OP devices, but at least this time, it worked.
Thanks.
anyone have a patched magisk boot for IN2025?
I did the steps of flashing the stock boot.img, then booting the patched img, installed the OTA, used magisk to patch before reboot, but when it rebooted it said installation failed, and i was unable to access magisk after that as it was on the wrong slot... I had to apply the OTA update again, and now am stick without root
IN short, need either a stock IN2025 boot image to patch myself, or a magisk patched one...
TIA
