Has anyone tried to flash the new Beta update to the OnePlus 6T TMobile version? Does it still give the same error "Build Version does not match Hardware version"?

I just downloaded and installed the open beta 2 and it's great! I'm going to give it a week and "test the engine and tires." I still have my Pie firmware, just in case.
NOTE: I installed using the local update method. I was rooted also with pie.

Main OP question was if you flash android 10 via zip and tried flashing beta on top to see if it works like it did on android 9. Please let me know if anyone tried this as well. Thank you in advance.

No 'build version does not match hardware version' error when flashing the new beta to TMO converted one plus 6t. I used TWRP 3.3.1.28 and all is good.

We still don't have the "reserve" partition though. OnePlus fonts will be missing and show up as italic fonts. A few apps are also gone but can be installed from play store. You wont pass Safety net so you will miss out on Netflix, etc.
No F/C's. Not sure on battery yet.
Everything else does seem good! I am enjoying it!

You can use the reserve partition magisk module...

I used patched MSM tool to get TMobile variant to international ROM without unlocking bootloader and then I local upgraded to Android 10 stable, then local upgraded to OB 2 and all is well!

So I'm on Android 10 Stable with bootloader unlocked. What happens if I relock bootloader? Will I go into bootloop on restart, and will it get rid of the warning on restart, or do I need to do what @bigmikey307 did?
Update : I did the above but didn't go to beta 2

didn't understood what you meant about "didn't go to beta 2"...
for beta you need to flash via local update since you're on the official update yet. link is on the beta thread or on the Oxygen Updater app from playstore

I just meant I stopped at 10.0 and didn't local upgrade to beta yet

Any word on the Play Protect Certification issue on T-Mo devices? I've been getting by without it on the Stable release, but I'll definitely go Beta of this update resolves the issue.

Nope, not certified. Someone posted some links in the Official Stable thread with instructions on how to do it using root and some magisk modules.

So like @Scott Mentioned, it requires root to pass at the moment. The Magisk mod is called Magiskhide props config and it works perfectly well as a workaround. Good luck!

I'm probably overlooking something obvious but I have no idea what it is.
Here's the story; I have a T-Mobile OP6t converted to International.
Flashed the update to OB31 (Open Beta 2).
I have Magisk and Titanium Backup installed, both with root access allowed.
However, I'm unable to get TB to actually uninstall some of the system apps I don't want.
Also, I can't copy and paste (via Solid Explorer) my edited HOSTS file to block ads.
What am I missing?

The OP Weather app for instance, the OP square and round icon packs, e few more that I dont recall. All of them could be downloaded from the play store. You only need the font fox magisk module referenced earlier in this thread. You wont notice these missing apps on a dirty install but you will see it on a clean install or factory reset.

Reinstalling the ROM ZIP via in-built updater fixes the issue. Done it multiple times.

Is the new "Messages for web" feature showing up for you guys?

I just received the new update for the Messages app. But the Drop down list doesn't seem to contain the "Messages for web" option on it.
Both my Nokia 6 and Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge are running this exact same new version on em'. But they do have this option. What's happening? Am I the only one who is having this issue?
I've that option.(same Messages app version as yours)

Are you using any custom ROM? This makes no sense at all. This has nothing to do with the carrier as well. What's happening?

Are you running a custom ROM? The people who have replied to say they have it have all said they have stock, don't know yours.
According to this it is being released by handset which would explain why a custom ROM can't get it yet and would also make sense why an AndroidOne Rom would be first.
https://www.androidcentral.com/youre-not-only-one-who-doesnt-have-android-messages-web-client-yet
Also check your Play Store and see if you are certified, this could also be a reason Google have decided not to push it to you yet, actually that would make sense for the rollout.

Nope I'm running stock. I had installed magisk before. But then I had to remove it so I rooted it back to stock using the mi flash tool.

See me edit above, next thing is to see if you are certified in Play Store, for some reason Google are not pushing it to your phone yet and I can only think it's not certified (check play store(hamburger>settings>last entry)) or not passing safetynet (an app can check this).

You are right. Play store says the device is certified. But safety net check fails. I don't even have magisk. How can I fix this?

Is your bootloader still unlocked, this will trigger safetynet but don't just lock it or your data will be wiped!
safetynet being tripped will stop you getting a lot of apps unfortunately.

Google Pay Busted on Android 10

Got a message from Google Pay saying that my phone is rooted or is running uncertified software.
I have a T-Mobile variant that I converted , without root, to international. Anyone else see this issue?
Read. This is an old problem for years. Is your bootloader unlocked? Not rooted? Yes this breaks GPay. Hence, Magisk, root, systemless and Hide.
Easy fix.
I'm not rooted. Bootloader is locked.
I just booted into bootloader to double check, and it is locked and secure boot is enabled

You're going to need root to get this fixed. So first go this link and follow the instructions in the first post to get Magisk on your device.
Next, you may need to install the latest Magisk Manager. Link here.
With Magisk Manager on your device, you can install both "Busybox for Android NDK" and "MagiskHide Props Config" modules.
After a reboot, use a terminal app (I used Termux) to setup MagiskHide Props as per the instructions here. I just used the available OnePlus 6T fingerprint.
With it all setup, the device will show up as certified.

I'm not rooted, and really don't want to root.
That is besides the point though, why is the official release of the OS having the issue.

When you say "official" release, did it come OTA, or did you download it, or use the updater from
the play store?
OnePlus isn't releasing 10 "officially" to the 6T, got a few bugs left to squish.

No, works fine. But I don't have a converted variant - all stock.
If you go back to stock as it is with T-variant (search for MSM tool), is it certified again?

OnePlus 6t T-Mobile unlocked converted oxygen 10.3

Hi, I have a T-Mobile version of OnePlus 6t and it is unlocked. I converted to global room but Can I update to oxyen os 10.3?
I saw posts that T-Mobile version needs to wait T-Mobiles OTA but I am not sure this applied to post-unlocked one.

I went from 9.0.17 to 10.3 with a local upgrade - all seems to work fine. Except for Google certification that will not be available till TMobile release A10 and certify the device. So some applications will not show in Play Store (Like Netflix) and GPay will not work.

Yes, you can. You better install Netflix BEFORE upgrading. The reason is Netflix deployment is not one APK - you will need to use 3d party to deploy Netflix apk.

What steps did you use to root? Did you do it after installing A10?

May I ask, when you went from 9.0.17 to 10.3, did you use Oxygen updater? I have converted twice now from A9 to A10 and both times had to msmtool back to A9.17 due to various issues. I would like to update to A10, but don't want to have an issue and have to re-wipe everything and go through the ordeal of unlocking bootloader again as well as copying all my files back to my phone and setting things back up.
Did you have any issues with your upgrade or was it a seemless experience? I realize there is Netflix and google play (I do use Netflix but no Gpay).
If it worked good for you I may consider going to 10.0.3 from 9.0.17 in the next day or so. I realize the upgrading is all subjective, just curious

I just updated to the latest 10.0.3 last night. There were no major hiccups and I followed the ultimate guide method 2. There were some Magisk modules that were incompatible such as (OOS Doze) and my sms/MMS with Google messenger stopped working. The messagenr actually resolved itself and is now working and my Netflix works along with Disney plus. I am using the module safetypass to pass safetnet

Local update. I didn't lose any data or files. The process was pretty straight forward and i went straight to 10.0.3 too.

Not true I went from 9. 17 to 10.01 and Incremental to 10.3. With no issues. Your mileage may vary.
I'm on 9.0.17 converted TMobile to international, can I take the 10.3.0 update , I'm understanding I'll most likely lose Google pay which I don't use anything else?
I went from 9.17 converted to International to 10.3, then rooted.
Yes you will lose Google Pay and Play Store Certification.

Everybody has installed it... It's been out for days
Went for it yesterday. With an "ultimate guide" here on forum. I was 9.0.17 rooted with twrp description problems. So I downloaded update (1.8Gb) from official One+ site. And did local update, and all the steps to keep root. After finally booting up I got message that Magisk Manager stopped working, but everything was fine. So cleared app temp memory, and settings (for Magisk only) and next boot everything was ok.
Nope... 100% stock, 9.0.17 is ROCK solid, g-pay, samsung pay work perfectly & there really isn't anything in 10 I can't live without yet. So, I
see no need to update for now.
I'm also not updating yet, at least until they fix the keyboard offset issue and other things I've read about.
Luckily you can just freeze the system update app with Titanium.

There is no keyboard offset issue and so therefore it's never getting fixed. Designs can change, but there isn't going to be a fix for something that isn't a problem.

Judging by all the people complaining about the empty space under the keyboard it does seems to be a problem, though.

There is a Magisk module to deal with that (immersive gestural Navigation for Android 10), and an adb command to change the size of the space. It's a deliberate thing from Google so they'll perhaps remove it later or no but staying with Pie just for that.....

It's not a bug, it's there for the swipe gesture, so that way you won't swipe the keypad when using gestures
Sent from my LG-G8 using Tapatalk
Question of the day. I've been waiting to do the A10 update for the issues it showed on the first days. I'm on a converted 6T from TMo, running 9.0.17. my major concern is the GPay thing I use it a lot. But researching here there's a way to make it work if I root the device. So can I update to 10.3.0 then root to get the GPay issue resolved with the Hide module on magisk? Or should I root on Pie then update?

This is pretty bad ux experience, and with the amount of complaints it seems and accidental keypress possibly when swiping is much better than losing all the text and keyboard closing with an accidental touch. At least give us the option to move it down, without having to go into ADB and setting an offset that then interferes with the way all apps render.

IN2025 - Open Beta 3 to Stable Branch

Hello!
I've got the IN2025 (global/NA) version of the OP8Pro and have been running Open Beta since it released. I want to downstep to the Stable branch of releases as I plan on selling the phone soon, so don't want it on a beta build when I do so. However I've not been able to figure out how. I attempted downloading and attempting a forced update and it didn't work, and have not been able to figure out how to get it working.
Anyone able to help?
There's a few guides for this already but generally speaking going from ob3 to stable you'll need to wipe.
1. Back up
2. Disable magisk modules
3. Download oxygen updater.
4. Take the install
5-A) I didn't use the ob3 release but at this point if you were going from 10 stable or 11 stable to 11 stable then you would click install on the update and then before rebooting you would install magisk to the slot after OTA, you can try this but may not work and shouldn't make any difference.
Or
5-B) take the update, let it wipe, set up phone, install magisk manager then flash a patched boot.img
You didn't state of you're rooted or not, If you're not rooted then follow 5-B but obviously don't bother rooting.
If you are then it's your choice.
5-A would be considered a dirty flash, I'm not sure if it will allow it coming from OB to stable, it should seem obvious when you're going through it.
I just downloaded an unofficial rom that allowed a downgrade and straight from than just to be on the safe side installed the official current firmware

I just done a Google search

EDIT: Seems the links on this site are official downgrade links anyway

Yeah i know this post. But i thought you have found an unofficial version which allows a downgrade without wipe.
Because i read something about that. Not sure if thats fake info.

I don't think you can actually do that.
From my experiences. Especially between bases ie: 11 to 10

You've got a newer version of the Firmware installed now so why would you want to even try downgrading without wiping, talk about compatibility problems

Dude what you are talking about? I don't want to try anything. I have just misread his post and thought he was able to downgrade from open beta to stable without wipe. He said "unofficial rom" and i read somewhere there were some guys able to do that with a modified rom. That's all.
