TWRP boot loop after Magisk 22 upgrade - OnePlus 6T Questions & Answers

Magisk updater installed Magisk & said it needed to make a change to continue the update. I clicked the Reboot button. The phone boots into TWRP. I reboot & it goes into TWRP. Repeat.
How can I recover, preferably w/o losing apps & most preferably w/o losing data like pics?
I'm using Android 9 rooted.

Backup>select data and internal storage>use a computer to move the backup file out
restore then
You can also try magisk uninstaller which comes with magisk on github(seach github magisk the uninstaller is in assets)

Good suggestions. Came back to phone & found battery ran out. Charged up & now it boot loops to fast mode only. Argh!

fastboot flash recovery twrp.img where the recovery image should be renamed 'twrp.img' and placed in the fastboot platform tools folder.
then
fastboot reboot recovery

I see the platform-tools note. I'm on Linux & the adb & fastboot tools are in /usr/bin, not a platform-tools folder.
Found one.

hmmmmm
fastboot oem unlock (maybe device relocked when battery rn out)

I was able to get back to TWRP by switching slots. Backup fails because Data is encrypted & TWRP is not prompting for PIN. I'll try using the Magisk uninstaller tomorrow (past bedtime). Long shot.
Open to other approaches. Thanks for your help.

Facing the same authenticate error when trying to boot into twrp.img. I also don't know how useful twrp will be on the other slot if it can't decrypt the data from there so stuck at this stage too.
@kamiller42 Did you manage to resolve this with the Magisk uninstaller?

Nope. I tried getting by by flashing just the boot image. It erased data & everything, so I flash Android 10 again & re-rooted.

Did you flash all partitions?
Is there a way to only flash the boot partition, then boot into twrp.img, flash that, then reboot into recovery to decrypt the data? I care more about recovering my encrypted data than getting the phone working.

That's what I thought. All was lost when I flash boot image. Technically, I flashed the fast boot partition from this post. https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...t-stock-fastboot-roms-for-oneplus-6t.3862516/

recovery twrp disappears when the mobile restarts

Android stock 8.1 / g5 plus 32/2.
help, unlock the bootloader.
Now when I install the recovery twrp (latest version) I get the following error:
sending ‘recovery’ (10236 KB)…
OKAY [ 0.379s]
writing ‘recovery’…
(bootloader) Image not signed or corrupt
OKAY [ 0.239s]
finished. total time: 0.634s
after that I try to enter the twrp and if he lets me in. The problem is that I enter the system and everything is fine, but when I restart the recovery it does not appear anymore and I skip an android logo with a sign of admiration (without commands).
And I have to install the recovery twrp again, so on.
someone has an idea what could be ..
After you not into TWRP the first time, restart into recovery again before rebooting into system. That should ensure that it stays.
If it doesn't, you may need to use a zip that disables dm-verity.

6T stuck into fastboot mode

I've tried to update my 6T (it was unlocked, used TWRP and Magisk rooted) to the new version following the guide here but I had errors doing it like described here.
So, now I can only boot into fastboot mode (I can't even access recovery mode ). I tried to use the Tool All In One but it returns me the error that my "phone is not in Adb mode".
It seems not giving me errors when I use fastboot boot command:

but the phone just exit fastboot, display OnePlus logo and stop! :crying:
Please I just wish to recover the phone from the beginning. Anyone could help me? :angel:

You can use the msm tool like starting from scratch. Make sure to use 9.0.11 if you're on T-Mobile
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6t/how-to/op6t-collection-unbrick-tools-t3914746
Or you can follow this video. I just went from 9.0.13 rooted and twrp back to 9.0.11.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mh-tjPPz2Ws
Now you'll be on stock OOS 9.0.11. If you want to oem unlock, root with magisk and install twrp.
Follow this guide but instead of using the provided TWRP and magisk on this guide:
https://www.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6t-unlock-bootloader-root/
Use the latest which at this moment is 3.2.3-2 and magisk v19.0
https://twrp.me/oneplus/oneplus6t.html
Download:
twrp-installer-fajita-3.2.3-2.zip and twrp-3.2.3-2-fajita.img
Place both of those in the adb folder. For me mine is C:/adb/
Download Magisk zip and apk.
https://magisk.me/
Place Magisk 19 zip into adb folder.
Now follow the guide and when you get to step 3. Use the new commands for the new twrp and magisk.
Use these commands:
fastboot boot twrp-3.2.3-2-fajita.img
adb sideload twrp-installer-fajita-3.2.3-2.zip
adb sideload Magisk-v19.0.zip
Once your phone boots up transfer the magisk apk from your computer to your phone
or download it from your phone and install the apk.
Now you're good to go!

i've had that happen to me a time or two, good news is that it is an easy fix. Here is a post with the file you're gonna need, make sure you get 3.3.0-2 image and installer, you are gonna need them for this. Also, if you don't have adb and fastboot tools go ahead and get them. You will also need a working rom.
From fastboot, use the following commands:
Fastboot boot twrp-fajita-3.3.0-2.img
when it boots up go into Advanced > ADB Sideload
adb sideload twrp-fajita-3.3.0-2-installer.zip
Reboot recovery
Factory reset (DONT wipe the system)
Adb sideload rom.zip
If you want magisk,
adb sideload magisk.zip
reboot
You have successfully avoided nuclear rage.

The obvious reason why this was failing was that you were trying to boot the installer zip file, not the TWRP image. The correct file you were supposed to use was twrp-3.2.3-2-fajita.img.
He's right. You want to boot the img which allows twrp to show on your phone but isn't installed. Then you use twrp to sideload and use fastboot to install the twrp zip and it will install on your phone. I edited my post and added the commands and files you need.

Even easier. Install full ROM with updater, install Magisk from manager, reboot. Voilá! No need for TWRP. Unless you want TWRP of course.

Yo! Yeah I want TWRP so I follow that

Did I just lose all my data?

Today after a successful OTA manual upgrade(downloaded latest zip and flashed) I decided to reinstall TWRP in order to reroot. However, after running first "fastboot flash recovery twrp.zip" then "fastboot boot twrp.zip", I am no longer prompted to enter my passcode(which I know) to decrypt the device, and the /system partition is empty in the TWRP file manager. The sdcard partition is filled with my encrypted files(assuming by their base64 names).
I dont think any of my actions in TWRP were significant, except possibly when I flashed the twrp.zip to have the recovery be persistent. (When I launched TWRP for the first time, I wasn't prompted for my password to decrypt then either, so I assume the damage was already done)
I have tried "twrp decrypt [password]" in the twrp terminal but I get "Failed to decrypt data"
A. Is there a way to reflash my system(e.g Can I just flash the same update.zip) and be back to normal
Or B. Can I retrieve and decrypt my data, given that I know my lockscreen passcode which is normally used to decrypt it.

As you learned from the first command there is no recovery partition, you can't flash like that. Your data is on a different partition, so it should be ok (pictures and such, I'm assuming that's what you are worried about)
Next I don't know what ROM or OS you are using, but if it's a current one, you will need a newer version of TWRP. Download 3.3.1-6 or 3.3.1-7 from this thread (link) You need the IMG file first. Run:
fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-6-fajita.img (Or -7 if you download -7)
Hopefully that will ask you for your password and decrypt all your data. At this point backup your data. Then I would dirty flash your ROM as it's hard to say what you did with all that flashing up above. Then run the TWRP installer. Then Reboot to recovery, flash magisk (If this was a custom ROM, remeber to also re-flash Gapps). Just like you were doing a regular update. Hopefully that fixes everything.

Hello my friend. Did you ever find a solution to get your directory back? Mine looks like you explained now in TWRP and in a file manager. Like it was encrypted or something.

Fastboot the .IMG file not the .zip file, if it is encrypted then adb sideload or boot to system then fastboot again.

OnePlus uses FBE (File Based Encryption) which is why it looks like this. Just booting TWRP doesn't affect your data. As long as you're able to restore a working system partition and let phone boot your data should be accessible, but _only_ once phone fully boots.

Hi, Hopefully someone can assist you here....
Only possible way is to pull the boot.img from the Fastboot ROMs Thread. Otherwise you may have to try MSM to unbrick your device.

If I understand correctly, and before I get too excited about getting my data back, then does that mean I can fix this authenticate error without losing my encrypted data if I do fastboot flash boot boot.img?
(I have some book chapters from my novel that I really don't want to risk losing so its important to figure out if twrp will let me decrypt the data if I flash the new boot.img)

If it doesn't boot and you can't your data back, Dirty flashing might be the last hope. Otherwise, Data will stay encrypted unfortunately.

rooted h918 stuck in bootloop. Can't access TWRP!

My main rooted v20 phone got bumped and now is stuck in a bootloop. I can enter fastboot (some commands working) but can't access TWRP recovery using either VOL + UP and USB cable or VOL DOWN + POWER. I believe the phone is on 10j or 10k if I remember correctly. Bootloader and carrier are unlocked.
Is there a way to just reflash TWRP safely and attempt data recovery and ROM installation without factory reset?
My goal is to attempt recovery first. If that is not an option, I would like to flash to 10p so I can start the rooting process using Lafsploit.

Sure, to flash twrp in fastboot mode you do this.
Download latest twrp
With the phone off hold vol down plug USB into phone and computer.
type on your computer:
fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.6.2_9-0-h918.img
fastbboot reboot
take battery out
put back in

That's so odd I have never seen this issue before.
You can try flashing the twrp image to the boot partition.
fastboot flash boot twrp.img
fastboot reboot
Should boot rite into twrp then because the twrp image is on the boot partition. Sounds to be like there may be a hardware problem with this phone.

fastboot flash boot twrp.img
fastboot reboot
Should boot rite into twrp then because the twrp image is on the boot partition. Sounds to be like there may be a hardware problem with this phone.

Well unfortunately the flash boot command failed also. I'm guessing because it shows the boot partition size is 0. Any possible way around this?
I'm hoping not but I think you might be right about a possible hardware issue...
PS C:\Users\User\NexusTools> fastboot flash boot twrp.img

I think it's a hardware issue with the ram. I cant think of anything else.
Do a search online for the error message.
