There are a several things to check:

1. Corrupt rom zip, maybe due to removing compatibilit.zip with wrong tool)?

2. Your internal memory is decrypted and you forgot to flash no verity patch?

3.magisk was not flashed sucessfully(seems to be more common to several users here)?

4. Tried the whole method again?

A recovery log of such issues is useful(now to late you need to reproduce the same process again) or screenshots.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] scoob8000:
1. I used totalcommander, however I did miss the step to move the rom to the root of internal storage.

2. I'm still encrypted

3. I didn't get any errors flashing it. I tried the v18 I just downloaded as well as an older version I had on my phone.

4. Several times.

I'm trying all over again, but not flashing magisk after the rom. And trying to figure out how to download the rom again and get it on the phone to flash. I'm so rusty with all of this. I havn't touched adb in years. :(
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] shingokuyo:
I once had a similar issue that was due to the fact that I didn't put the rom at the root of sdcard but it was a custom one so I don't really know if it is related in your case.

You still can download the rom on your computer and move it to your phone sdcard while this latter is in recovery by connecting those via USB. If the rom is still somewhere in your sdcard, you can simply move it to the root via twrp's file manager. :)
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] scoob8000:
I'm trying that right now. At this point I'd be happy to just restore my nandroid and get back to my old version but can't even get past fastboot after restoring it.

[edit] Broke down and did a full wipe, and installed 9.0.3. Phone is booted now. Now to reinstall magisk and restore all my damn data. :/

Hello, I'm on 9.0.1, can I dirty flash?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] daviddosa:
Just updated from 9.0.1, encrypted and rooted following these steps:

Uninstalled Magisk with uninstaller zip

Flashed 9.0.3 without compatibility.zip

Cleared dalvik/cache

Flashed Magisk v18.0

Cleared dalvik/cache

Restart (took about 1 min to boot)

I can't flash it, gives zip error when trying to flash. Twrp codeworkx 2018-12-15. Same thing with Siankatabg's twrp. Didn't try with blu-spark, thou. I faced same issue when tryed to flash from 9.0.1 to .2, then somehow appeared the stock recovery and i flashed successfully. Now it does not appear and can't find stock recovery anywhere. Could someone pls give me a hint?

Yes, i should think on using it. But is ok, a friend told me to remove compatibility.zip from the rom zip file and try again and it worked. Now i have 9.0.3. Even so, it gives more work to do but is no big deal, was piece of cake, and not even took a minute. But thank you for ur help, i really appreciated it, thank you so much.

---------- Post added at 12:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:14 PM ----------

There are versions of OOS 9.0 that comes without the compatibility zip?:confused:

---------- Post added at 12:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:16 PM ----------

I removed compatibility.zip from the rom and it worked fine, now i have 9.0.3 in my OP5.:victory:
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] strongst:
There are no versions without compatibility.zip officially. In the past we removed, uploaded and linked to the op.

As you see, now it works :good:
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] halferuga:
So I had an Unlocked bootloader, rooted, running OxygenOS 5.1.7 - and I've succesfully updated to 9.0.3, but I can't flash Magisk now?

What I did:

- Disabled Magisk Modules, rebooted to see if everything still worked

- Disabled PIN

- Got the full ROM, checked MD5. Deleted "compabibility.zip" using Total Commander (but on my own PC, I think the guide implied using a TC Android port?)

- Flashed TWRP by siankatabg, because I was running 5.1.7, thus not Pie

- Flashed Magisk Uninstaller, wipe as described in OP

- Flashed full rom with removed compabibility.zip

- Flashed Magisk 18.0

- Wipe as described in OP

- Reboot

I am now running Pie, but there's no Magisk Manager, and I can't get SU privelleges in Terminal Emulator when writing "su". I flashed TWRP by codeworkx linked in the OP, since I'm now running Pie, and then flashed Magisk again, but to no avail.

EDIT: Rebooted into same TWRP, flashed the same Magisk image, but this time I checked "reboot after installation" and didn't wipe Dalvik and Cache and this time it worked? Weird, but maybe it'll help someone
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sandertje1980:
[MENTION=8491783]halferuga[/MENTION]: could it be possible that you rebooted the system without rebooting the bootloader? Bootloader with SU binary should be loaded before restarting system, otherwise your device will not be rooted. I encountered this problem many times when I accidently 'reboot to system' from recovery after an update.

My own question: I have Root Explorer, that is also capable of modifying ZIP files. The OP states that I should use Total Commander (or another specific tool) to remove compatibility.zip. Could someone explain why I can't use Root Explorer to remove the compatibility.zip file? I could obviously figure it out myself, but I am affraid of messing up stuff if it doesn't work.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Trandaa:
It could break the signed zip and TWRP won't accept it qnd you'll end up with an error while flashing (it's error 7 I think, but not sure).

These two apps are tested and safe to use
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] wizzent:
hello, I faced similar issue related to magisk installation. Here below what did the trick on my device for having magisk back and working:

- Uninstall Magisk Manager app

- Reboot into Recovery

- Run latest Magisk Uninstaller

- Clean cache/dalvik

- Reboot recovery

- Install older version of Magisk (I have used 17.3)

- Clean cache/dalvik

- Reboot system

- Open Magisk Manager

- Update to latest Magisk V18 through Manager

Bye
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] net.cat:
UPDATE: ok I made it. the problem was related with removing the zip with WinRAR instead of 7zip (the correct solution)!

I removed the compatibility.zip and I'm trying to flash the ROM using blu_spark 8.85 and TWRP by siankatabg but both are reporting ERROR 7 :(

---------- Post added at 11:35 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:33 AM ----------

what if I have already wiped everything so I have no system to install those apps in? how can I modify the ROM zip without impacting the sign? can anyone provide a valid download link of his functioning version of the Pie ROM zip?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sandertje1980:
Sounds reasonable.

Do you think I can just try it and see if it works? Or is there a chance that I break one or more partitions because the flash is interrupted?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] strongst:
In the beginning where this issue popped up we need to inform the majority in the op to use methods that work.

As you can read in this and the open beta thread: there are many other tools to remove the compatibility.zip, even 7zip on PC which I also use.

But it's not practical to list every tool within the instructions you know ;)

Just try, it won't damage your device, it will be flashed sucessfully or not then use recommended methods :svetius:
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Trandaa:
Because you removed the zip with wrong method, you'll get the error.

Unfortunately I'm not understanding what kind of signature is in there, but probably it's something what kind of says if it's a zip file with an android system or something else (please correct me if I am wrong).

If you're trying only to remove the "compatibility.zip" file, just download the full rom (link in first post) and remove the compatibility.zip using methods described in first post (using Total Commander for example).

And I'm not sure if it'll work, you've said you don't have any system now, you could try to flash TWRP blu_spark 9.91 and then flash the firmware without the need of modifying rom zip file...

hello everyone..

I really need help with my phone*:(

i was on oreo 5.1.7 soo i updated to 9.0.3 using dirty flash method..

at first it worked very well without any problems, then after activating magisk modules and rebooting.. the phone goes off and reboot to twrp right after boot animation is done..

soo i went to recovery and flashed magisk uninstaller, flashed twrp by blu V9.91, flashed magisk 18.0 zip

then reboot... it boots well, but after 1-2mins of usage i face the same problem... plz help me!.. the phone is useless now nd its my only device :(

will a clean flash solve this?

plz guys help me asap*:( :(
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] strongst:
I would recommend a clean flash and to check your modules at first(who knows what modules you're using...)
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] zinou111:
i tried clean flash... same steps as mentioned above,

i flashed magisk uninstaller, wiped everything except internal storage... but when i try to flash the firmware, it says that zip is corrupt :(

so idk wat to do now....
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ebeninyo:
Connect your device to your computer while in twrp screen. Get your important files such as (photos) back, wipe everything and install the OTA. (other stuff like contacts will be back with google account).

Also try flashing codeworkx's TWRP. I had some issue with my previous version of TWRP but after flashing codeworkx's one I was able to access my data on TWRP screen and wipe everything out as well with it.

Also flashing Oxygen OS 9.0.3 worked fine for me couple days ago when I did it.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] zinou111:
im using blu_starks 9.91 twrp rn...

i already backed up everything yesterday before attempting to update.... all i want now is my phone to be alive again :(

Try this one https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-5/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-0-oreo-oxygenos-5-0-t3725723

Also try downloading OTA once again maybe it had some download issues.

You can flash TWRP within TWRP recovery mode as well. Try this and after that reboot to recovery again. After that wipe everything out then flash the new OTA then latest Magisk flash.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] zinou111:
okay..thanks bro..

[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Ebeninyo:
Try the TWRP file I suggested couple posts earlier. Flash it, download OTA again, flash ota after you wiped everything out, let me know how it goes.

Cool. Enjoy your phone.

I suggest you to install Arnova's GCam with front camera fix and ViPER4Android FX. They were game changers for me.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Sandertje1980:
I was a bit too premature. It looks like Root Browser is unable to modify zip files (I can view them though). So I installed TC and followed OP instructions successfully.

I have an OP5 that is completely standard, i.e. not unlocked, rooted, etc. It has been updated by stages up to 9.0.3 via OTA without apparent problems. Now though it will not receive calls on either SIM. Outgoing calls operate normally. SIMs have been swapped, to no avail. So I am forced to the conclusion that this is a phone issue. Anyone else suffered this experience? Is the phone faulty or is there a setting I have not been able to find?

-Iv,e done many test; complete rom restore (all clean) , no magisk module, clean rom ,( yes with unlocked bootloader).

-I've tested a rooted original OSS 9.0.3, with magisk module, still I have the same issue no mater what.

- go back on 8.1 : NO ISSUE !

Issue

:

1- listening music with a headset (mic) ; all fine

2- do/receive a call with the headset; all fine

3- Resume music ; left OR right channel is dim ! aka

unbalanced

channel. yes both channel are playing music, but the sound is not at the same level.

4- fix : unplug headset, and kill all the app. If I just unplug , it wont do the trick if I just kill app, or just unplug 3.5mm.

This is not a headset issue.

Am I the only one ? BT sells push ? :D

But when 9.0.3 came out i tried the update but failed, this message appear "Instalation Failed" and the phone rebooted. So I flashed back to the stock recovery and tried again but same result. Long story short i got desperate and made a factory restart from recovery mode, and i have the same result from the automatic update, and its curious because oll my videos and pictures that were in the root folder remain there. Now i dont know what to do, the bootloader is lock again i have no twrp neither magisk and I´m still stuck on 9.0.0.

It was smooth and fast until all the pie updates which for me have major scrolling lag. My phone is bone stock, locked bootloader and never rooted. It always worked awesome and fast until pie. Now the scrolling lag makes my 2014 HTC M8 running lineage os Oreo look like the smoothest thing ever.

Yes I noticed that too but it wasn't as severe as the scrolling. I have an HTC M8 (Snapdragon 801) on lineage os and it's slow as hell (major lag when a bunch of apps are running and notifications coming in like a cold boot) but the scrolling seems to be smooth as silk compared to when the OnePlus starts stuttering. But so far it's been a few days without issues and I did nothing to fix it.

Clean update from rooted OOS 5.1.7 to OOS 9.0.3

Hi all,

I am a bit confused and would appreciate some help before updating to 9.0.3.

I am currently using OOS 5.1.7, rooted with Magisk and TWRP 3.2.1.0 recovery (codeworkx if I remember correctly).

If I want to update to OOS 9.0.3, I understand I need a recovery compatible with Pie, which requires a recent firmware.

So in my understanding, the step 1 is to update the firmware, in order to be able to install the latest compatible recovery (step 2), and then install OOS 9.0.3 (step 3), am I right?

Sorry if it sounds stupid but where can I find the firmware update for step 1? :confused:

Once I have flashed the new firmware and new recovery, do I still need to remove the compatibility.zip to flash OOS 9.0.3? :eek:

Thank you :)
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] strongst:
Don't know where you read that, but that's not the way to update from 5.1.7 to 9.0.3.

The instructions in first post are the ones you simply follow.

Stay on your recovery, remove the compatibility.zip, flash 9.0.3 and THEN you have pie firmware and can move on to update your recovery to a later one that needs pie firmware, not the other way ;)

But simply follow instructions in first post.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] GeeM:
