OOS 11.0.8.13 upgrade root - OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion

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.

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?

DP2 Q Beta (T-Mobile) with magisk looking for patched twrp

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

So how to root Android 10?

If we don't have TWRP,
How do we root the device?
Magisk has the option to patch a boot.img file. Technically, you could:
1. pull the boot.img file from the A10 OB1 zip
2. copy it to the phone's internal storage
3. install latest magisk manager, click on install - patch boot.img - choose the boot.img
4. copy the patched boot.img to a pc with ADB and USB drivers
5. put the phone in fastboot mode, sideload the boot.img
I have no idea if this would work, but you could give it a go. I believe that someone else already made a guide for exactly this here in the OP6T forum.
Refer to the twrp thread for OB 10.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6t/help/how-to-flash-twrp-android-10-beta-1-t3986345
Either do the OTA local upgrade and magisk uninstall then install to inactive slot method, or use the boot patch which there is another thread on that on the ROM Dev section.
I used the first, worked fine. But there is no supported twrp yet. Only magisk root is officially supported on Q.

Yes, likely because the update flashed to the inactive, and there is no recovery now. So...if you want recovery, only way is to full wipe and do a MSM or flash all and wipe with older stable.
OP support/forums made announcements on their thread on what will happen with upgrading, or rolling back.
They have a rollback file you can download if you want it all working again including recovery. But you will get wiped as mentioned, and be back on the last stable and firmware. Then you can twrp and root all over again.
That is Beta testing for you!!

Android 11 is live.

Today just received update notification as below image. Downloading now, let see what are changes and improvements.
I'm enrolled in beta for Android 11 and got the September Security patch today. Will I get the stable release soon or should I opt out from beta and go for a fresh instal?

Has anyone been able to successfully root using Magisk? I tried and bootlooped.
Edit: Magisk Canary works, but you CANNOT install TWRP as it hasn't been developed to work with A11 yet.

Are you using a custom recovery? TWRP does not work with A11 yet.
Extract the boot image from a factory ZIP and flash it in bootloader:
Code:
fastboot flash boot "boot.img"
Then, boot TWRP:
Code:
fastboot boot "twrp.img"
And install Magisk using the canary zip. Please note that you do not use the quotation marks.
Alternatively, you can boot to TWRP and sideload the OTA, then reboot to bootloader, boot TWRP again, and install Magisk.

You must use the Magisk Canary zip on the stock boot image. Regular Magisk will not work.

Your bootloader must be unlocked to use this method.
Start fresh, use the OTA or the factory image. I did this coming from Android 10 without wiping.
Download the Magisk Manager Canary APK and installer ZIP here
Download the latest TWRP image here, put it in your platform tools folder and rename to twrp.img
Using platform tools, reboot your phone into bootloader:
Code:
adb reboot bootloader
Then, boot (DO NOT INSTALL) TWRP:
Code:
fastboot boot twrp.img
Install the Magisk Canary ZIP, reboot to system.
Yes I am using canary latest, and did everything as you explaining, still getting bootloop. But I will get done sooner or later )

+1 on this method, worked for me, thank you for the instructions
I'm also bootlooping. Did you solve your problem?
I installed through the OTA button. Of course, I lost root, so I followed the above instructions, but am stuck at the G loading.
The canary zip is magisk-debug.zip, correct?
EDIT: I overlooked that I had EdXposed installed with active modules and I don't think it works with Android 11 yet, at least not the modules I use (Gravity box). I'll try rooting again tonight with EdXposed modules disabled.

Yes, both the apk and the zip are named "magisk_debug".
I am not sure why you are bootlooping. If you installed the OTA, it should have overwritten /boot with the stock image, and flashing Magisk Canary should work. It is possible that if you had modules enabled before and didn't disable them, you could have issues.

I disabled the edxposed modules and still got stuck at the G logo. I'm not sure what else I could be doing wrong, but it's obviously me or my setup. I'm going to downgrade to Android 10 because the modifications I rely on from GravityBox are more important to me than the new features of Android 11.
Thanks for the help.

Anyone have luck downgrading from 11 to 10? I've tried several different 10 builds and I get "Error: Slot Unbootable: Load Error" in bootloader.
I used the same commands I always use to upgrade builds:
fastboot flash radio radio-walleye-...img
fastboot reboot bootloader
fastboot update image-walleye-...zip
I can flash 11 again and all is fine, but I haven't been able to go back to 10.

Rooting Help

I've been running custom roms since before android was a thing so I'm usually pretty good at this stuff.
I'm running 11.0.9.9 IN11AA
It refuses to root. I'm not sure if there is some step I'm missing that's so obvious nobody mentions it?
I was rooted, but when the new Magisk 23 came out without Magisk hide.. it was a big problem for me. I have corporate apps that will refuse to work on a rooted device. I restored the stock images (just like I do to get my OTA).. but then I uninstalled Magisk 23 and Installed 22.1. I then patched the bootloader (Dire3ct Install) and all was good, until I rebooted and had no root.
My bootloader is unlocked.
So I downloaded the full stock rom v11.0.9.9 IN11AA directly from Oneplus.
Extracted payload.bin
Used Payload dumper to get the proper boot.img.
Copied boot.img to my device and used magisk 22.1 to patch the file.
Downloaded the patched boot.img to my desktop.
Used ADB to flash it
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
fastboot flash boot_a patched_boot.img
fastboot flash boot_b patched_boot.img
fastboot reboot
Nothing. No Root.
I tried this over and over with different versions of magisk.
I tried downloading pre-patched version, and using fastboot boot patched_boot.img.
The device just hangs, and then boots using the stock image. No root.
I have no idea what could be wrong.
Ideas?
I just updated from v11.0.8.8 to v11.0.9.9 today on the EU variant.
Downloaded the update via Oxygen Updater, then used the built in updater with the local file downloaded.
Before restarting the device, opened up Magisk, then clicked "Install to inactive slot" since the new update gets put on the inactive slot. After it installed, rebooted the phone, and done. Updated to latest, and kept root. Didn't even turn off the modules, although I only have 1 installed.
This is my usual method to keep root while updating.
I'm not sure where you got your Magisk from, but i'm using v23.0 from the official github page (HERE), and it still has MagiskHide built-in, and currently using it for all of my banking apps, and it works.
Most likely the issue is that you have used the old Magisk version to patch the file.
Download the app from the link above, and use that to patch your boot.img file.
While the extracted file should work as flashed, I like to just boot from it rather than flash it and make it "permanent".
Use fastboot boot patched_boot.img to boot using the file once only.
After starting up, you should have Magisk installed in a couple of seconds. It might prompt you to restart the phone when opening it first time, but just ignore that and do not restart as you'll lose the root. Alternatively, you can install the app when you're not rooted yet, and when you boot using the patched boot.img, you won't need to restart.
When done, Magisk should tell that you have 23.0(23000) installed.
Then just use the built-in Install > Direct Install (Recommended) option within Magisk to install it to the current slot.
Do NOT install it to inactive slot. This option only to be used when updating via OTA.
Other option:
Download the Magisk app from the link above, and rename it to magisk.zip then copy it to your phone.
Download TWRP from HERE to your PC and use fastboot flash recovery twrp.img to flash this recovery.
Reboot to recovery. (Might take 2-3 mins to boot first time)
Flash the magisk.zip using recovery.
That's all you should need to be able to root.
I appreciate the help.
I was so hopeful you gave me what I needed, but it didn't work.
So, It wasn't an update issue... it was more of an attempt to downgrade Magisk.
I always OTA the same way as you and it always works.
I also always get Magisk from the official Github page.
What I got excited about was that I wasnt aware there was a working TWRP! So I thought.. THAT will fix it.
I didnt flash it, I just booted from it. I flashed Magisk that way, BUT... still not rooted.
Here is the interesting bit.. when flashing Magisk via TWRP, it detected that my boot.img was already Magisk patched and not stock (Which is right). It's like the boot.img is correctly patched, Magisk just isn't seeing it.
I'd be ok with a full wipe and factory reset at this point, but I'm not even sure that will fix it.
** Edit - I tried manually flashing the latest full OOS downloaded from Oneplus. It didnt help. I finally factory reset and it's working now.
This is my fav. root method.

Agreed, this is a great method. I tried that too before I ended up doing a reset... no good. I somehow broke something with the rom outside of Magisk so that Magisk wouldnt work. Whatever it was, A full wipe fixed it..
