DP2 Q Beta (T-Mobile) with magisk looking for patched twrp - OnePlus 6T Questions & Answers

Hi I got DP2 to run on T-Mobile with magisk by patching the boot.img with magisk manager and after flashing images and formatting. I was wondering if anyone had a patched boot with twrp. I guess the recovery is inside the boot img for dp2 and maybe even dp3 I was hoping someone could share it I'll patch it again with magisk manager and make a shared backup so others could try and maybe get dp3 to work ,I've tried, thought I got it , and failed.
But yeah thanks for the time
On stable version I used 9.0.11
Unpack the dp2 zip and flash the system.img, vendor.img, and boot.img using twrp
format the system, vendor, boot
Reboot bootloader and flash the vbmeta
fastboot flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
Once boot download magisk and upload same boot.img to phone and patch using magisk manager

Install Magisk without TWRP or root

Hello,
It's possible to install Magisk without TWRP or root? I see this thread:
https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-unlock-bootloader-and-root-the-google-pixel-2-and-pixel-2-xl/
It's possible to root the Google Pixel 2 without TWRP and root by patching boot image. It's possible with the Mi A1? Thank you.

Starting from 14.4, yes it is possible to install magisk without twrp. BUT you'll still need a computer and a stock boot.img at hand. Magisk manager app will patch the boot.img and put the patched img inside the magisk manager folder. You'll then need to copy the patched img and flash it to your boot partition (boot_a or boot_b depending on your active slot).
Note that 14 oct boot image from the factory image is incompatible with 30oct updated system, you'll lose wifi.
After flashing, you'll have root and magisk set up.
Instructions are basically the same as the pixel 2,but change your fastboot command to flash boot_a or boot_b.

Wanted: 9.0.11 Patched Boot Image

Hi all
I am wondering if anyone knows how I can get my hands on OOS 9.0.11 Patched Boot Image.
I have honestly looked everywhere and the only one I could find was for OOS 9.0.7
I would like to use the boot image to install Magisk for root without a custom bootloader.
Thanks

You can temporarily boot TWRP and flash magisk. It's that simple..

Above method by @indian84 is using twrp boot image
1. fastboot boot twrp_boot_image
2. Download Magisk then sideload or install
or
Without twrp you need to patch stock boot.img yourself
1.Install MagiskManager
2. Dowload stock boot.img
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1U8LD1C84CVmv8CVQJgdwmZUsQqSE2m3s/view?usp=drivesdk
3. Patch stock boot.img with MagiskManager and you will get patch_boot.img then transfer it to your pc
5. phone - start fastboot mode
6. pc - fastboot flash boot patch_boot.img
7. pc - fastboot reboot
8. done
Thank you. Exactly what I was looking for.
If you use this method to convert TMobile to international software, could you them download the full international firmware and reflash and have OTA working then?

Why Magisk Modify boot.img

When rooting pixel 2xl via magisk manager (not with twrp recovery) but by installing magisk manger then patching the boot.img (factory boot.img) and at last flashing boot.img
What changes does magisk do in stock boot.img, that after patching or modifying the stock boot.img our device is rooted.

Help with installing TWRP on Open Beta 3 for 6T

I lost TWRP a while ago. But I have been able to root by extracting the boot.img from payload.bin and patch it and flash it and all is good. How do I get TWRP back? I have tried the latest TWRP and no dice. Any help?

I did it by flashing the TWRP installer (zip) from Magisk Manager as a module, then booting into TWRP and reinstalling Magisk from there.

OOS 11.0.8.13 upgrade root

I started with a fresh MSM to 11.0.7.9 and used ota updates to 11.0.8.13. Extracted the boot images of a and b slots. Used magisk canary and last stable and patched the boot images. Neither of the patched images would boot in fastboot. Ended going back to 11.0.8.11 so I could use root. Anybody else have issue?

Fastboot boot lineage recovery then hit install in recovery and adb sideload magisk.zip and it'll flash. This is the easiest way I've found how to get root.
