Hi, can some one give me a guide on the nexus 6 p running mhc19i for no force encrypt, with either a system root that will allow me to remove apps, or a systemless root that I have to go through recovery, and is there a recovery for this version at this time other then the stock one

To decrypt you need to format the userdata partition:
Code:
fastboot format userdata
This will obviously wipe your storage so back it up to your PC first. You will also need to flash a custom kernel that doesn't force encryption first otherwise the stock kernel will just encrypt again when you boot after formatting. You need to use TWRP recovery to flash SuperSU to get root. I have detailed instructions in my guide:

yeh, is there a custom kernel for mhc19i

Of course, there are many. Have you actually looked?
yes, I have looked, but most of them have an aroma installer, I am totally blind so I need one I can flash through fastboot as there is no talkback in aroma or recovery mode. Even the stock no force encrypt would be helpful thanks.

You can flash any of them via fastboot. Extract the boot.img from the zip and flash it:
Code:
fastboot flash boot boot.img
You'll just end up with the default settings. Why don't you just flash TWRP? Then you can install it the intended way.
I can flash twrp through fastboot, but I am totally blind and use a screen reader, so I would have to have some one around to use the twrp interface, since there is no speech there, so I need a kernel or modified no force encrypt boot.img I can flash through fastboot

Ahh, I see, that is definitely a difficult situation. So basically as I said, I believe any of them can be flashed via fastboot, but it isn't without its own work. You'd need to download the kernel zip, extract it, place the boot.img into your working directory (your fastboot folder), and use the "fastboot flash boot boot.img" command to flash it to the device. This will give you a kernel that doesn't force encryption, and you could then go on to use an app like Kernel Auditor to tweak the settings once you've booted into Android. How possible is this for you?
well I downloaded fk-r12-anykernel2.zip and unzipped it and there was no boot.img inside, so, can you send me a link to a boot.img for his kernel or the stock with no force encrypt, and am I missing any features by not flashing it through recovery, don't really care, just asking, but if you can please send me a boot.img for the verison I posted earlier in the thread.
Thanks so much for your help

Apologies for the late reply, been a bit busy with my family. It looks like Franco is one of the kernels that doesn't have the boot.img directly inside the zip. There's probably a way to extract it but it's beyond my expertise. I'm in the process of extracting the boot.img from some other popular kernels for you now though, I'll update here once I have some uploaded. It might take a while because my upload speed is woefully slow.

Actually, it turns out none of the kernels have an easily accessible boot.img inside the zip. Things have changed since I last unpacked a kernel. I'll see what I can find out for you.

It contains a stock modified boot image allowing system root and no force encryption. He updates thread for every build. Flash right from fastboot. If you need anything else feel free to PM me.

I posted that thread in General. I should have posted in dev threads but less traffic the better for me answering the same questions over and over ??
Hello,
Where can I find this file?
My main goal is to install magisk on an un-rooted galaxy s4 gt-i9515 device, and one of the steps is patching the boot.img.
Where can I find this file? Should I copy it and patch the copied file? Or should I patch the original one (I have full TWRP backup from before root & system files editing)?
edit:
I've seen this on youtube and it seems too easy, is this a legit way to get your boot.img? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i-Cyxemi25g

That's not it. I told I am trying to do it on an UN-ROOTED device. Magisk asks me to choose my boot.img file so it can patch it.

Dude, Magisk has to be flashed from recovery. I don't know What you are doing right now, but I'm pretty sure you're overcomplicating things.

I am posting a new thread about the whole process I've done. Please read it and help me install Magisk.
Btw I have a TWRP backup of the state before flashing / installing anyhting, so I am constantly recovering my system back to a state which passes safetynet.
Hello all,
When still on Android 10 I had Magisk stable installed and working.
Now, after upgrade to Android 11 I cannot get it to work.
Here's what I did:
- first off, I have factory reset the phone (without erasing external storage) because of WiFi not working anymore on Android 10 (Omega kernel problem maybe?).
- update the phone to Android 11 in Settings, System, System updates (now I'm on Android 11 build IN2023_15_200930)
- install Magisk Manager from here
- download the firmware from here
- extract boot.img from firmware zip file
- copy boot image from pc to mobile
- patch boot image with Magisk manager
- copy magisk_patched.img from mobile to pc
- flash magisk_patched.img
Code:
❯ fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img
Sending 'boot_a' (43464 KB) OKAY [ 1.824s]
Writing 'boot_a' OKAY [ 0.131s]
Finished. Total time: 1.966s
- reboot the device
Now, when I open Magisk Manager, it says Magisk Installed ' N/A' and I expect to be able to install Magisk using 'direct install'.
However this option 'direct install' is not shown, only Download Zip Only & Select and Patch a File.
What is missing here?
Any help is appreciated!
Edit: I got it working using canary build of magisk manager in stead of the stable build.
Got the same issue plus the phone sometimes turn into a bootloop.

Quite possible it's the magisk patched image you're using, obtain another, best to extract it yourself.

Don't flash twrp whatever you do it'll end up in crash mode, not suggesting you will but a chap I was helping did it and that's what happened. Forced him to use MSM tool.
Try another patched image, if you're on EU/UK then I have one in my thread in the guides section. Just don't do anything else. If needs be I can upload a stock boot.img if your get stuck in a boot loop, least then your can boot.
What version of magisk did you use to patch?
Also what was the commands you used to flash it in fastboot?
Using the canary magisk Version, latest ofc. Also tried all patched boot.img posted around here. Also extracted my own working boot.img and Patched it with magisk. Then flashed IT via Fastboot and bootloop again. The logs should help to find my problem

Dont flash your image just boot it first. And if it boots and you have root you can install magisk from manager permanently
Had to factory Reset the Phone, now root works fine
Same Problem
yeah same problem here... you can exit the bootloop by flashing the stock boot.img on it.
But still, neither canary or the standard does work for rooting.

Lol well that depends mate, are/ were you using it.
Lucky patcher breaks so much when it's used, bootlooping is one of those symptoms.
I intend to make a thread saying do not use it as you're the fifth person I've seen now with issues I've troubleshooted and the culprit was that stupid app.

As it sounds, uninstalling doesn't help then. But do you know why it bootloops only when using the patched img, and not when using the stock img?
Hi guys, I have the OP7TP ME. I have always managed to root it through:
1)extraction of boot_a.img
2)patch file with magisk
3)flash file through adb
4)boot phone and patch again through magisk direct in order to recover wifi functionality
with the latest update though this process doesn't work anymore. Step 4 does not work which means if I do the first 3 and boot the phone, I have no wifi and after a while the phone crashes and reboots.
The only way to fix my phone so that it works again, is to reflash the full official update file.
Any help will be well appreciated on how to get root access without issues again.
Many thanks in advance

Don't extract boot_a but extract boot.img which is from the current partition. Also I'd flash via fastboot. You don't need to patch with Magisk again if it's already patched.

Hi thanks.. Unfortunately that's the guide I followed and it doesn't work no wifi and crash... Have you managed to root yours this way, with the latest firmware? Also I noticed that the latest magisk manager I have, doesn't offer the two options Prserve AVB 2.0/dm-verity & Preserve force encryption...they are just not present in the application....

Use beta magisk manager and try again
Also the lack of wifi is usually a mismatched boot to os ver

After the update, i flashed the patched boot.img using fastboot command. Assuming no modules are conflicting you should have a rooted device. The one module that created a problem for me was OOS NATIVE CALL RECORDING. Disabling it solved any issue.

Things like this makes me so cautious and ask so many questions. Hope you didnt soft brick your device?
Okay it worked out somehow, i was looking for a stock boot.img, and was gonna flash that to try and save it, but had trouble with my pc recognizing my oneplus in fastboot mode, so i pressed both vol up/down and power at the same time to while being connected with usb cable, to try and get into fastboot, then screen went black but my PC got some pop ups for recognizing a device with unavailable drivers, then i just press vol up and power after a minute of it being black, phone rebooted and it loaded past the booting animation into android... weird stuff worked out, even after a dozen reboots with hardware keys, even letting it spin the animation for an hour...
I'm never updating again ahahhah
edit: if you do update, make sure you disable all your magisk/xposed addons and some native os call recording module... thats what i learned while googling yesterday, and its something i did not do, that could of have possibly contributed to my headaches
What i ended up doing that worked was;
. Flash stock 11.0.7.7 boot.img to slot A & B to unroot the phone.
. Reboot and install the ota update. I had no magisk modules to uninstall.
. After updating i downloaded the stock boot.img for 11.0.8.8 then patched and flashed to get rooted again.
Its a longer process but quite safer for me.
It's the same on each firmware, providing you have the full update available to you.
Use oxygen updater and grab the full update, download and install but don't Reboot.
Open Magisk send install after OTA.
Then reboot.
If you're unable to grab the full update then probably best to update then boot lineage recovery and sideload Magisk.zip using lineage recovery, then flash and you're done.
Could someone post boot img I can't find this 11.8.8 to download.
Thanks.

Same here please, cant find the 11.0.8.8.IN11AA anywhere.
If 8.8AA is in oxygen updater (full update)
Then make your own, using someone else's comes with inherent issues and risks.
It's good practice to make your own.
