how do I update my rom - OnePlus 6T Questions & Answers

Hello all!
I am running AOSIP pie right now but I can see it exist a new update. My question is how do I do that?
Is it easy as just go in to recovery mode and flash the new update? Or do I need to do something more?
My phone is a Oneplus 6T
Oneplus 6A000
Help me please

If you're trying to update your phone you can just use the intergrated updater in the settings but be careful because it well override TWRP and you may lose root. You have one other way which ensures you keep TWRP and Root while you update the phone, you have to download the update either from the AOSIP or download the update from the updater in settings. After you download the update, use a root explorer app (Use this one https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.solidexplorer2 ) and locate the update which should easily be found with the search button. Search .zip and it should come up and once you know the location go to TWRP and flash in this order:
1. ROM
2. TWRP FLASHER
3. GAPPS
4. MAGISK
This is how I update Custom ROMs. Hope this helps you out.

Flash stock recovery.
so does anyone have a changelog other than the one OnePlus have provided, seeing as it's the same as 4.0.0 & 4.0.1

are you on twrp 3.0.3-1? make sure you update twrp to the latest version first before you do anything
step 1: go to the "how to Install OxygenOS 4.0.1 with Stock Or Custom Recovery without Data Loss!!" thread and download the newest supersu zip file and the FULL 4.0.1 zip file (larger file)
step 2: boot to recovery and nandroid backup
step 3: go to wipe, advanced, wipe cache and dalvik
step 4: go to install and flash the full OOS 4.0.1 zip file then directly after flash the newest supersu 2.79 zip file
step 5: boot to system should take a bit longer than usual then you will be in nougat
hope this helps

HELP OP5 won't OTA update after root.

Hello all awesome members, i have searched google, xda and even bing for answers but none have answerd me yet.
So i have an OP5 wich is running Oxygen os 5.1.2 and now i want to update it to the latest.
Things i have tried:
Download and update through the phone updater: Fail
Recovery manager: Fail
ADB sideload: Fail.
To be clear i don't care if i loose root i just want my phone back to fully stock.
So how do i get there? what am i missing?
Can you tell us more details, what ROOT method you are use? If you are using TWRP + Magisk, it's easy to update. Just download Full Update (not OTA) mostly OnePlus 5 will detected if our device ROOTED then will download Full ROM.
Then Goes to Custom Recover, Clear Cache dan Dalvi, install Full Update ROM and flash Magisk again and done

OTA updates for rooted L29 P10+ ... without losing data

I have a rooted (With magisk) L29 P10+...So I have tried direct OTA update from EMUI...downloads and on reboot goes to TWRP. I tried using Firmware Finder and same thing happens (with and without proxy). I then tried uninstalling Magisk (root) and trying again but that did not work.
What I would like is top go to the newest OTA update so I don't keep getting the NAG message of my need to update...but MOST IMPORTANTLY...I do not want to have to redo my phone, i.e. data and layouts with folders. Is it possible? I cannot seem to find a link for the p10+...I kind of see one for the Honor and TWRP install but I do not want to corrupt and have to start from scratch.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
I have same issue. Did you get this resolved?
Well. i guess you have to:
a) install original recovery (may get one from update file or from forum, i saw download links here) with fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery_ramdis.img
b) install update
c) install twrp with fastboot
d) install magisk from twrp
actually, there's this thread, which worked for me also. https://forum.xda-developers.com/p10-plus/how-to/flash-stock-updates-twrp-installed-t3819734

Software update whit root and Twrp

Hello friends, this morning I skipped the update 11.0.5.0 on my xiaomi Mi 9t Global, but I have a Root and TWRP user and I would not like to have to revert that to be able to install the update there is some way to update it without losing root and twrp? I would appreciate the help AND SORRY FOR MY BAD ENGLISH
Hello,
If you don't want to lose TWRP after OTA update => Use TWRP OrangeFox Recovery (10.1_1) => https://files.orangefox.tech/OrangeFox-Stable/davinci/OrangeFox-R10.1_1-Stable-davinci.zip
You can't keep "root", but it's simple to flash again Magisk zip installation in TWRP...
Question: What Magisk modules did you install?
Info: It's safer to download and install Full package update (=FullOTA) instead of simple OTA.

Thank you very much for your help I got the Complete File of the OTA update and I Installed it with TWRP And before restarting I applied Magisk as you told me and this is the result.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR HELP I AM SOMETHING NOOB EVEN WITH XIAOMI AND I WAS AFRAID TO BRIKE MY TERMINAL BUT WITH YOUR HELP I HAVE LEARNED SOMETHING NEW FOR THE FOLLOWING TIMES
:laugh::fingers-crossed:
And on the magisk modules that I installed I leave you a ScreenShot
I leave the download link of the file fullOTA Global 11.0.5.0 in case someone wants to install it : https://mirom.ezbox.idv.tw/en/phone/davinci/
As a fellow user of a stock rom, I can recommend OrangeFox as taking OTA updates with it is SO much easier. Make sure you follow instructions to get it set up, then you just take OTA like stock. When you have to flash the full OTA, it's a great time to switch as that's part of setting up OTA on Orangefox

There's a guide linked in the post. There's no point in me typing up the same thing. Please refer to the official documentation linked in the post as that will always be correct and up to date.

What is update process for OP6T 9.0.16 > 10.3.3 rooted [Global]

I have OP6T OxygenOS 9.0.16 and I would like to update it to the latest 10.3.3 with root.
What should be my process of doing so? I have not been in touch with rooting for the past 3 years so I don't want to mess things up. Another note is that while I am on OxygenOS 9.0.16 I tried to root it which was failed, but now few banking and calling apps such as TextNow thinks that my phone is rooted and they can not run -- but my phone is not properly rooted according to root verification apps.
Please tell me how should I do the update to the latest version from this point and then I would like to unlock bootloader and install recovery and root it as well.
Please advice.
BTW my OP6T is global

Flash OOS full rom zip on both slots using TWRP also flash TWRP installer zip on both slots reboot recovery flash magisk reboot system. Easy peasy.
Example:
Boot recovery: fastboot boot twrp.img
flash OOS 10.3.3 full rom zip
flash TWRP installer zip, reboot recovery,
flash OOS 10.3.3 full rom zip, format data, wipe data,
flash TWRP installer zip
Reboot recovery, flash magisk,
reboot system.
Note: I use a USB stick. I flash magisk zip off my USB stick.
That's what I do when I use OOS on my 6t far as installation goes.

Are you sure there is no need to update to 9.0.17 and then 10.3.3?
I've asked once and someone said that 9.0.17 is neccessary before update to 10.3.x.
Also there is option to flash from system without losing magisk modules:
1. Flash manually from update center (do not reboot)
2. Enter magisk and flash to another slot (after OTA)
3. Flash TWRP installer like magisk module
4. Reboot
But I'm not sure if I remember it correctly.

10.3.3 is all that you need. 9.0.17 isn't the only way anymore.

I have a T-Mobile SIM unlock OnePlus 6t and I converted it to an international model so when my conversation was done I was on OOS 9.0.1.1 and I booted TWRP and installed 10.3.4 full rom on both slots and also recovery installer and all just like my previous posts stated and everything went fine. I used mauronofrio's TWRP the version just before the latest 3.4xx when I did this.
I always download quite a bit of various firmwares and also TWRP versions before I start flashing things just in case something goes wrong I already have other things maybe I can use and I don't have to stop and wait for some download to finish... And I'm quite sure you know this but definitely make a backup of everything beforehand to USB or transfer it to your pc just in case you end up needing it as a precaution.
Edit added:
I am assuming that you already unlocked your bootloader... I believe everyone knows to do that that's on XDA forums before you can do anything to any device .. I say this after reading post below me here. I guess I should have said that earlier but I just assume everyone knows that on the forums... My bad. ??
From fastboot on Linux PC:
sudo fastboot oem unlock (then hit enter on keyboard) use volume keys to move to unlock option and your Power button to select it and confirm. For more info see: https://www.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6t-unlock-bootloader-root/
Super easy to unlock bootloader just remember it does wipe your device clean so move anything to want to PC or USB stick first...
I would think you could just update oxygenOS to latest then re-root no? Assuming your already bootloader unlocked which it seems like would be the case if you have an obsolete magisk installation.
Edit: re-reading your post maybe it is not unlocked as you failed to root. In this case just unlock then flash the latest fastboot image and then magisk as others have already stepped you through. You will lose data when you unlock so backup first.
So if I'm on 9.0.16 I could flash latest OOS directly from TWRP and then flash magisk? And no data loss? Of course I'm rooted with bootloader unlocked.
Oh dear this process is getting harder because recently I was busy doing other things it sounds way harder it actually is. Isnt there a way I pay someone on this forum so that user help me do this. Like download stuff links and proper version and follow me up with it because i want to do this without messing things up!

It is indeed a tough job. This A/B partition has had a lot of people bootloop/soft bricked their phones.
However, you need not pay anybody anything. If you are on stock, I would've recommended you upgrading it via Oxygen updater (a 3rd party app on the play store) and then using the latest recoveries (TWRP 3.4) and flashing it via Fastboot mode.
It is super easy.
