I've been getting bootloops after installing Magisk on my OnePlus 5 unlocked bootloader , rooted before at 4.5.15.
I directly updated it to 5.0.2 which resulted in many errors in the end had to flash it completely and then clean install the ROM .
The ROM works perfectly with almost no trouble.
I then flashed almost all Magisk versions I could get hold of (14.5,15.2,15.3,15.4(beta))
But none of them could get past the boot animation.
I've also flashed the no Verity mod file both before and after the flashing of Magisk nothing worked.
But everytime after all this I flash the Magisk uninstaller and I get easily get back to using the device but without root.
Anyone help me rooting this ?
The ROM has been downloaded from official OnePlus website and the twrp I'm using is the codeworkx version.
First do this then tell me how it went.
1. Boot to fastboot and flash twrp-3.2.1-0-universal-codeworkx-cheeseburger.img via command window, make sure you have adb installed on pc.
2. Then boot DIRECTLY to twrp.
3. Dirty flash OOS 5.0.2 over your current rom in twrp and then wipe dalvik and cache.
4. Then boot into fastboot DIRECTLY again and flash twrp-3.2.1-0-universal-codeworkx-cheeseburger.img again.
5. Boot into twrp directly and flash Magisk 15.2.zip
6. Finally boot into the system.
7. Optional: then you can go ahead and update Magisk via it's own flash tool.
I'm already on 5.0.2 so do I dirty flash it again?

I tried to update to the newest version of OxygenOS but I'm now stuck on boot circle animation and not sure what to do.
I was initially on OOS 4.5.10
Here is what I did to try to update:
1. Downloaded OOS 5.1.3 from Oneplus website and also downloaded Magisk v16
2. Downloaded TWRP twrp-3.2.1-1-cheeseburger.img and then flashed to my phone.
3. Rebooted back into TWRP, then flashed the OOS 5.1.3 .zip file. Immediately after that, I flashed the Magisk .zip.
4. I then rebooted. I'm now stuck at boot.
I am now able to access TWRP. I wanted to try and restore using a Nandroid I made, but all my files appear as gibberish. I'm assuming this is an encryption issue?
What are steps I can take to fix this?
Edit: Figured it out.
Boot using BLU Spark recovery, or any other Oreo compatible recovery. Official twrp seems to have some issues now and then

Could you tell me the exact steps to take from where I am now? I don't want to break anything else.

1) First download twrp recovery from codeworkx (Make sure you have the latest one)
https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...overy-twrp-3-2-1-0-oreo-oxygenos-5-0-t3725723
2) Boot to fastboot and flash the recovery.
3) Flash the rom zip file.
4) Flash magisk zip file.
5) Restart your phone.
##Note: If you want to flash the recovery file you can do that using twrp itself or using fastboot but what I've found that some apps (banking apps) don't work after replacing recovery.
Last working state :
1. Android O version WW-15.0410.1803.55
2. Bootloader unofficial unlocked
3. Rooted with magisk
Reason for flashing :
Update to latest Oreo then re-root but flashing failed due to magisk not being uninstalled first
Current state :
1. Able to enter fastboot
2. Twrp is intact
3. Magisk uninstalled using twrp
Actions already taken :
1. Uninstall magisk via TWRP
2. Re-flash WW-15.0410.1803.55 via TWRP
3. Wipe dalvik/cache
4. Factory reset via twrp swipe
Still stuck in bootloop
I'm thinking of flashing Oreo stock recovery prior to reflash Oreo firmware via Asus flash tool. Found Oreo stock recovery image from 15.04.10.1711.6. Is this usable? (Edit : found suitable version and bunch of other versions, big thanks to Iceboy91 on following thread : https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-3/help/request-stock-recovery-boot-img-stock-t3763381 )
But before I do anything even more stupid, I need your advise on correct next moves, guys.
Flash raw oreo via Asus flash tool and all will be fine.

Will Asus FT run properly on TWRP i/o stock recovery? Last time I did it booted to TWRP and I can't proceed. Kindly confirm if it's possible and I'll give it another try. I am left with another option which is flashing corresponding stock recovery and boot image.
To save your time from trial and error recovering from similar problem, here's what I do.
Issues :
1. Flashing raw on stock with TWRP stuck on eternal 'unzip image'
2. Flashing raw on stock ROM with stock recovery and wipe data OFF was successfull but could not enter system (stuck on Asus logo with circling progress).
Also unable to enter stock recovery at this point.
Steps taken to recover from bootloop :
1. Flash corresponding recovery and boot image to replace TWRP (BE CAREFUL WITH SOFTWARE VERSION)
2. Firstly, flash basic Oreo RAW firmware which can only boot to fastboot found on this post : https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-3/how-to/updated-unlock-relock-bootloader-t3749456
3. Flash full RAW Oreo firmware found on the very same post mentioned on #2, but with WIPE DATA SELECTED.
Note : Step 2 might be skippable, up to you to try
Hey ,
If you wanna upgrade to latest Oreo update, just follow these steps (most of the users did not report any kind of bootloop)
1) Flash stock recovery
2) Sideload the latest firmware .zip
3) Reboot and flash TWRP & Magisk
Link for stock recovery/boot images by @shakalaca :
https://mega.nz/#F!lw02CLpA!hpetR2-Sec1F__gHPNRE9Q!E09B3BbA
If anything happens, RAW firmware is there for you
Note: Do not remove/uninstall Magisk via TWRP. Flashing latest update will remove Magisk automatically.
Thanks for the tip, my problem has been solved, but better solution is certainly welcomed. Will do when caught in the same situation.
Here is what I do:
Skip automatic update and do it manually through TWRP.
First flash update then reinstall latest magisk in order within TWRP.
Reboot.

AFT just needs working fastboot.
Flashing raw via aft will restore all stuff to stock state.
Twrp will be replaced by stock recovery too.
I wouldn't recommend flashing stock zip via twrp.
Another way to get back to. Stock is to replace twrp by stock recovery (after wiping data, cache, system). Then flash boot.img and finally use update via SD card option from the newly installed stock recovery.
Also you can take twrp backup of stock rom (system, data, boot) and restore whenever you want to go to stock (after wiping system, data and cache).
All methods tried and tested.
Hi everybody,
I have a OP 6T McLaren, Oxygen 9.0.12 and I tried to uninstall Magisk 18.1 and update to Magisk 18.2 canary and something went wrong. After flashing I got the following error:
!Unable to unpack boot image
---
Updater process ended with ERROR: 1
Error installing zip file `/sdcard/Download/magisk-uninstaller.zip
The same error when I try to flash any Magisk version.
Phone doesn`t boot into system now. I can fastboot into TWRP and access files and folders.
Thank you very much in advance for your help.
Flash the magisk uninstaller then reboot. Then flash magisk.
I can't flash magisk uninstaller or magisk. It gives me the above error.
Even if I flash twrp installer in temp twrp it installs without error but after reboot it boots only in bootloader.
What can I do now to get the system working again?
-flash stock boot.img (where do I get file for McLaren 9.0.12?
-use MSMdownloadtool from here?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6t/how-to/tool-6t-msmdownloadtool-v4-0-oos-9-0-5-t3867448
flash this ota via temp twrp?
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6t/how-to/official-oxygenos-9-0-4-ota-oneplus-6t-t3860953
Try
Reflash OOS 9.0.12
Flash twrp
Reboot recovery
Flash magisk
Reboot system
Backup your data
Sent from my OnePlus6T using XDA Labs
Mclaren uses the same stock restore image.
I've been there format data .my friend let's his SD card encrypt or get errors on top of letting twrp (wrong version won't decrypt data either) if you do that reboot in system make sure adb is on and oem and auto updates are off
use different twrp the test build works better I had problems with orginal TWRP too
Solved!
All I had to do was flashing stock boot.img to boot_A and boot_B. Now It's working again...
Thank you very much for your help.

Ah.. Stuck in exactly same situation. Did you unzip the stock rom and flash boot.img through fastboot? Or did you take any different steps?
Niks.
Yes, unzip and flash both files via fastboot.
Just a note.
When installing Magisk and TWRP; I always install Magisk in one slot and reboot. I then use a partition backup tool to grab the stock boot image.
I then flash the stock boot image so the phone is completely stock again.
At this point I go through the TWRP and Magisk install the normal way.
I do this so I can always flash back to stock.
I also don't care about retaining TWRP or root.
I just start all over. It takes a few minutes but I don't usually have issues.
I also local install the same ROM to both slots before I install anything.
This way the opposite slot will always boot with the same version of the ROM.
Hello, I have a T-Mobile 6T which thanks to the XDA thread about bypassing T-mobile, is running the international firmware so I didn't have to kiss their butt trying to unlock the bootloader. Yesterday I decided to try the Resurrection Remix rom since it is unclear whether the Lineage 16 rom supports the in-display fingerprint reader, and I am too busy at work and too lazy to read the entire thread to see if it does.
I followed the instructions and updated my OxyOS to the latest .15 release via TWRP which I also updated to the latest version via OTG using a USB drive because I was unable to unencrypt using the older Blu-Spark TWRP version I had installed. After the OxyOS update (on both partitions) I flashed TWRP again, rebooted to recovery and installed Pico Gapps.
I found the Resurrection Remix rom to be very buggy and I hate the way the in-display biometric works (very slow and I don't like the paw print used as fingerprint placement). Anyway I started installing apps and after 4 apps installed, it says there is no space left in storage.
Nothing will update, and when I try to check storage with any file explorer it says "access denied" or just won't load. I've tried everything. Wiped the data and did factory reset, then flashed stock rom again and same issue. What am I doing wrong?
That looks like a messed up flash. And is pretty common. Considering that A/B is still new and everyone has his own method of flashing. So assuming you can make it back to latest Stock OOS (9.0.15 right now). If you dunno how to then simple reboot to recovery, flash OOS ZIP and then TWRP. Again Reboot to Recovery from within TWRP (Reboot -> Recovery) and again flash OOS ZIP and TWRP Installer. For TWRP I recommend you to grab the latest one (3.3.1-6 as of now). Once flashed, Format Data (Wipe -> Format Data -> YES) and Reboot. Wait for it to boot up. Now you should be on Stable Stock OOS with TWRP Installed.
Now Download ROM of your Choice (RR, LOS, Bootleggers, whatever). You will also need the latest TWRP Installer (same as above) and Gapps (Nano/ Stock Recommended) and Magisk if you want to Root. Reboot to Recovery, flash ROM ZIP and TWRP Installer ZIP. Wait for it to Finish. Reboot to Recovery. Once in TWRP, again flash ROM and TWRP Installer. Once done, again. Reboot to Recovery from Within TWRP. (Read above on how to). Now, flash Gapps. Magisk if you want to Root. Once done, again do a Format Data. Reboot and be patient for ROM to boot. And then tell me wether this works or Not. Good Luck.
Title says it all. I've recently tried to install TWRP on 6T (latest OOS) but little to no avail. I was wondering has anyone have success with upgrading from 3.4 to 3.5 while keeping data? and if you have could you guide me into the steps that you have done to fully get the TWRP working?
No issues here, booted to twrp and flashed latest twrp installer, then magisk if you want root
@Huskied I used the themed One Plus TWRP located here on my Oneplus 6T. https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-twrp-by-acuicultor-morphine1.3847752/page-10
It's on the last page if interested. I'm currently using v3.5.2-9 from there. Zero issues installing it on my end.
Flash TWRP installer zip through TWRP on your device then reboot. You should have TWRP installed then.
On my global Oneplus 6t .
Rom install w/TWRP install:
Flash OOS 10.3.9
Flash rom (with gapps included as example)
Flash TWRP installer zip
Flash finalize
Reboot recovery
Flash magisk 22.1 zip
Format data (swipe yes) wipes everything!
Reboot system.
If you just want TWRP then just install installer zip and if you want root install magisk zip afterwards then reboot. Should be good then.
