How to get OTA updates after rooting my device?

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

Should we flash twrp recovery and root zip right away after flashing full ota package??

You don't have to flash twrp recovery again.
You can flash a root zip right after flashing the full OTA package

ZE520kl OTA upgrade doesn't work

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 .

@vEEGAZ
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.

I flash OTA's through TWRP every time there's an update.

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.

I have newest oreo fw from asus website. Ive unlocked bootloader with official app. Now i want WTRP and root with magisk. I want to know how to flash updates to get all wroking?
1. Flash TWRP via fastboot?
2. Flash Magisk via TWRP?
3. When update will release i must flash whole fw from asus website with TWRP and then no-verity file to boot?
4. Or can i use flashfire app to flash fw from asus website and then no-verity zip?
What is the best solution to have updated system without use PC? Step by step guide will be great THX

Im confuse.
Im using 1711.75 with magisk 15.3 and twrp 3.2.1.0
I have the full firmware of initial oreo

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.

Installed TWRP, no access to sdcard

I've got my hands on this phone today. So I went on and unlocked bootloader and installed TWRP (with all in one tool).
But now when I want to root my phone through twrp, i can't access my files. I see the root folders, but when I go to /sdcard there are only a bunch of folder with random letters.
I don't know what's wrong. It is not asking for a password or anything.

Twrp has decryption issues currently. It's mentioned in the thread.
No need to install it yet, just boot to it.
If you're wanting to install magisk, just go into adb sideload in twrp and sideload magisk from your PC.

Thank you for your quick reply!
Is it bad that it is already flashed permanent? Or do I need to flash original recovery again?
I'll try and sideload it. Haven't done that before.

The current TWRP has decryption issues as its based on the Oreo tree and encryption/decryption works differently on pie.
Here is a post i did so follow it for easy instructions.

Nothing to worry about. You can dirty flash the latest full zip from my update thread or just wait for the next OTA as and when it comes flash the full zip that will overwrite the recovery partition to stock. For now TWRP is basically useless so i did not recommend to flash the installer instead just boot in it sideload magisk or kernel if you need to and retain stock recovery.
Feel free to ask anything if you are still in doubt :fingers-crossed:

Thanks for the info! I'll wait for an update.
When that update comes, can i just install it from the settings? Or would i have to manually download it and install it thru TWRP/sideload?
And i guess I lose root after i update so i would have to boot into twrp and install magisk again.

As and when the update comes, just let the system download and install the zip. It will auto download and install the full zip when it detects root/system modifications, just make sure you uninstall/deactivate all mods/magisk modules/ substratum overlays before you update. You can check for easy instruction on the third post of the update thread. I will update the thread as and when the OTA is released.
Also you guessed it right the update will unroot the device so you have to root it again so you can either do the same sideload way or just do it from the magisk manager - uninstall - install ota (do not reboot) - install magisk to second slot - reboot :good:
I will again update the detailed instructions for easy understanding and and when we have the update :good:
Just stay subscribed to the update thread :good:

Rooting with official rom?

Hi fellows
I wanted to root my Mi 9T, but I don't want to flash a custom rom, I just want to have root on the official rom (global stable).
As I understand, the correct procedure is:
-unlock nootloader
-flash twrp
-flash magisk
But I have a couple of doubts about this, in particular about updates:
-If my phone is unlocked and I have root, will I still receive official updates from xiaomi?
-if yes, do they install via twrp? Do they fail installation? Do I loose root/bootloader unlock if I install them on unlocked/rooted phone?
-if no, is there an alternative way to install updates without losing root every time?
In other words, what is the best way to have a rooted phone but with official, up-to-date rom? (I have no problems downloading/installing updates manually, but having to reapply root every time would be annoying)

As I know you could receive updates if you unlock your bootloader and flash magisk, I don't have experience with that, I've read that from other brands people do this and still get their updates.
If I'm wrong correct my.

• You will receive the ota but it won't install
• You'll have to install the full rom and reflash Magisk everytime
• Orange Fox recovery can install ota BUT not available for Mi 9T/K20

I'm not sure about Mi 9t (have to wait for bootloader unlock), but it was so on Redmi 3s: I can install OTA updates, it goes through TWRP, but after every update I have to flash Magisk.
It was several years ago, so probably they've changed something

Thanks for your replies guys.
I can now confirm (just tested) that to update a rooted mi9t all you have to do is this:
-flash update zip with twrp (you have to download the update zip from somewhere, like mifirm website, the one downloaded by the update tool is encrypted and won't work!)
-flash magisk
-reboot
Very simple! No need to reflash magisk modules, just the magisk base package and everything works as expected ?

I think it is more simple to do the update and reflash magisk instead of searching for the update package manually, isn't it?

You mean flash the fastboot rom using a computer and then reinstall twrp and magisk?
Seems more convoluted to me, since you still need to download the rom from an external website and additionally you need a pc and you need to reflash twrp every time.... it'll probably work fine, but it seems more complicated to me

Nah, I mean you flash the update you get the usual way. And then magisk afterwards. At least I've never lost twrp with OTA updates.

You mean the one downloaded through the miui updater? I can't flash that with twrp, it's encrypted. In fact, I can't even open the zip file with file manager, it says the file is corrupted. How do you decrypt/use it?

Few days ago I got OTA update while having magisk root and TWRP installed. It rebooted phone into TWRP and installed itself through TWRP. So it seems Xiaomi can now detect what recovery you are using and instead send you recovery OTA instead? Sadly I lost TWRP and root this way and needed to find newer TWRP (old one didnt boot and caused bootloop). Rom also didnt boot (after flashing new TWRP) until I flashed magisk.

Thank you all, it's nice to find this post before I create a new with the same questions.
I bought a new "Mi 9t", it received the latest OTA update, and it has been unlocked after waiting 170 hours.
MIUI Version: MIUI Global 10.3.11 Stable
Android Version: 9 PKQ1.190302.001
Model Name: M1903F10G
Now I need to root it without flashing twrp, I need to be on the Stock recovery because I don't want to lose the OTA update.
I ran this command :
Code:
C:\adb>fastboot boot recovery.img
Downloading ‘boot.img’ OKAY [ 1.404s]
booting OKAY [ 0.127s]
Finished. Total time: 1.560s
but the device reboot to MI-Recovery 3.0, can someone correct me if I'm wrong? also which twrp version support MIUI Global 10.3.11 Stable?

Weird, I tried that (downloading update from the updater app and rebooting to twrp to auto-flash it), but TWRP said update was corrupted. I had to download an unencrypted version from mifirm site to flash it with twrp.
Maybe it's a problem with the version of twrp? Which one are you using? I'm using the one from LR Team

oh I wish I knew After update when I went to flash back old twrp and magisk it resulted in bootloop so I was flashing all twrp I could find just to make them boot and then be able to flash magisk. However name of my file is "recovery-TWRP-3.3.1-0607-REDMI_K20-CN-wzsx150" I think its "fixed" chinese one.

Is "recovery-TWRP-3.3.1-0607-REDMI_K20-CN-wzsx150" support for MIUI Global 10.3.11 Stable?
Can I boot from it to root Mi 9T without flashing?

We need to wait for Realme to release a fix, just like what happened on color os when fingerprint wasn't working

On C.27 Bootloader Unlock and Root, Fingerprinter works

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.

So basically if I'm on c27 already, it's okay to use the same root method?

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!

Isn't it possible to install ota update from twrp? (I use mauronofrio). Is it mandatory to unroot, install C27 and then re-root?

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.
