Hi. I need help.
I have a OnePlus 8 Android 1, Model IN2015) with unlocked bootloader, but No root or TWRP installed, just unlocked bootloader. When I bought it, it is already like this. its came with security patch of 08.2021. Now i got a pop up notification of Security Patch 11.2021 via OTA but its fail to install, its same via Oxigen Updater o Automatic OTA.
Can I get OTA updated (security Patch) with unlocked bootloader or not???

In my case, No. Incremental updates (around 125Mb) are not possible if you have unlocked bootloader. I must to flash the complete update (around 2.9Gb). I already did it.

The status of the bootloader (locked/unlocked) has no influence on whether you can update via OTA. Every Android 11 update I've received for my OP8 has been via OTA and my bootloader has been unlocked since day one. Many, many other people have the same experience, I'm not unique.

Hi,
My M is running system 9.8.1Q-78
I know the bootloader can't be unlocked with this OTA.
My question is, I gained root like a half an hour ago, if I were to flash back to 4.0.4 7.7.1Q-144 OTA with RSDLite (I have the full fastboot zip) would this also revert the bootloader to a version which can be unlocked?
Thanks.

^ and that resolves that question.
if you want a further explanation, there is no way to downgrade the bootloader. RSDLite only restores the system. once the bootloader is upgraded, your SOL

technically it's the trustzone kernel that's getting upgraded. but yeah. once you're on .78, you're stuck
Hey all - I downloaded the factory image for the release version of Nougat from here. I went to try flashing it using flashfire as usual, but the partition listing is a bit different than before. Instead of /system /boot /user etc. I see this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So has anyone else been able to do flash this update through flashfire? How did you do it exactly?
Thanks.
anyone else? i would also like to know
Where is that linked file from? Google hasn't released 7.0 images yet...

It was posted on Android Police.
This is not a factory image but an OTA package.
And an OTA from DP5 not from MM stock
DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible for any lost data or damage to your device should you choose to follow my advice. Just because it worked for me, is no guarantee that it will work perfectly for you too. Proceed at your own risk.
Sign up for the Beta program at http://g.co/androidbeta and within a few minutes you should get a notification on your phone to download the ota to Official 7.0. Download this, but do not install it. After download, open Flashfire back up and it should automatically see the system OTA and prompt you to flash it. Doesn't matter whether or not you tell it to inject root, as this will not work. After the whole process completes and you are on the official Android 7 build, you can boot CF-Auto-Root using fastboot from your computer to get systemless root. Also, I expect within a few days someone will have full system root and various custom ROMs will be updated to Android 7.
Hi everybody,help me i if you can,please
I have only "modified" Software status in the bootloader(even after flashing stock firmware).Now i have more lags then after first week of using phone,and the sound became more cheep(it is hard to listen song on my phone)
Question is next.
How can i flash official firmware and get "Official" Software status in the bootloader?I think this situation is consequence of my multiple rooting and flashing castoms
P.S. Added screenshot and sorry for my english level

You would need to relock the bootloader to get that to go back to official. I don't believe there is a way to do so currently.
Having an unlocked bootloader won't cause audio issues, just an FYI

So as I understood,I need to flash it again and relock bootloader again?
That would get you back to full stock. However, like I said before, I don't think there is a signed bootloader image anywhere, so I don't think you can fully lock that back up yet.

Thank you I will try this
I was able to relock bootloader using this guide:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=72789290&postcount=16
Not sure if it will work for all model variants but it did for mine...

Just got a notice that .352 is out, 33MB upgrade, I will need to reflash stock recovery to install it.
This is about "better wifi connection"
unroot, flash stock boot/recovery, download OTA, install OTA, flash TWRP ---> ok
flash Magisk 13.1 ---> failed, bootloop, I had to install 327 boot.
So if you install the update, please backup boot for me
So before update to 352 is better to wait for an updated toolkit?
Do you have the OTA file?

Like always I forgot to flash stock boot image beforehand, so I encountered error 7. Can anyone upload just the incremental update?

Received notification this morning - installed April Security update NPNS25.137-93-10. In NWFL on Verizon.
Region : US
Unlocked Phone
Got notification for April security patch.
New Build# : NPNS25.137-93-10
Downloaded it into the phone but cannot move the Blur.zip from cache to the computer. It is not a full update, really appreciate an expert to make a TWRP version for us klutz.
Might just be me, but seeing higher battery drain rate since loading this update.
Has anyone noticed any bluetooth connectivity issues or improper operation? I know that I have a rather obsolete bluetooth handsfree (NOKIA BH-108) but since the last security update there are problems with bluetooth functionality on my phone.
