Glad you got it sorted 👍

I've never had an app that was this difficult, but I'm guessing you have to enable Zygisk in Magisk and use the Deny List to stop that app from seeing root. But you'd be better off asking in the Magisk Zygisk thread I think ;)

when I try to check the phone in FastBoot it doesn't recognise anything. I know it "works" because I've used the same process last year with my Samsung S7, but for some reason my Oneplus 5T refuses to recognise. Does anyone know what the issue is or if there's a link to drivers I need to install?
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Nimueh:
Sounds like you need to install the proper drivers, the Samsung drivers won't work with an OP phone. The following is from the Telegram OP7 group, but it's the same for the 5/T too:

To install the drivers, ensure that driver signature verification is disabled. Instructions:

I rooted my stock Oneplus 5t out of the box with Magisk using the XDA Developers guide.

I got the official magisk.apk from github, renamed it to .zip and flashed it with TWRP.

Then when I start my phone, log in to playstore, I want to download titanium backup to check if I have rooted. Turns out I cant install the app, it always gives me the error "Free Up Space" even though I have nothing installed. I tried deleting cache for playstore, then reboot, but then I can't log in to the playstore anymore, I always get the notice to "Verify your identity". Then I relog in but it is stuck in the loop where I have to verify my identity again.

I have tried the rooting process multiple times over. It always goes like this. First time, I can't install any app due to "Free Up Space" error. Then, after deleting cache, rebooting, I have to "verify identity" and am stuck in that loop.

I also can't even screenshot pictures, it just doesnt seem to save to gallery.

What did I do wrong? This is my first time rooting a phone but I have done other similar things in the past and usually when I follow instructions carefully, I can get it to work.

I have included images how magisk looks below.

Hello everyone,

I have followed all instructions from this thread and I noticed a couple of issues.

1. I booted the phone after following all instructions and noticed that the wifi wasn't turning on no matter what I did. I went to the advanced options of the wifi settings and kept pushing the slider to the right to turn it on but it wouldn't turn on. I rebooted the phone twice but it didn't fix the issue.

I then did a factory reset from the phone's options and it rebooted to the twrp recovery and from there I just chose reboot system (from twrp). The phone didn't actually do a factory reset, it just rebooted but the wifi after that reboot worked fine again.

2. Double tap screen on doesn't work.

P.S. I have also installed Xposed framework but haven't installed any modules yet.

Any ideas here?

Thanks in advance!
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Normas Interruptor:
Which magisk version are you using?

Xposed not supporting fully. I got play store crashed while i had xposed. I have removed that one and now everything is working fine.

I'm using Magisk 14.0 stable.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] lyall29:
1.) I believe you have to factory reset in TWRP. That's what I always do.

2.) Did you turn on the Double tap to wake in Display settings?
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] panoramixmeister:
I haven't faced any issues with Xposed as of yet but as I said I haven't really installed any modules, just the framework.

As for Magisk I was about to install v14.0 stable but I downloaded the link from the op here and installed v14.5

Update

I hadn't enabled double tap screen on from Settings - Gestures so this is sorted.

As for factory reset I just found it strange that it wouldn't do it from the phone itself, but from within twrp it works just fine as I have tried it already.

---------- Post added at 15:55 ---------- Previous post was at 15:52 ----------

1.) I believe you have to factory reset in TWRP. That's what I always do. - I didn't know that it works only this way. I presumed that with OP you can do a factory reset from within the phone too as with Samsung phones (I have a Note 3)

2.) Did you turn on the Double tap to wake in Display settings? - Actually no! And as soon as I did it works just fine! Thanks!

The only strange thing to mention was the wifi not working but it seems to be working fine now.

I ran into a problem.

I had Magisk v14.5 installed. I then installed directly Magisk v14.0 from within Magisk. I rebooted the phone but now the phone doesn't boot. It just has the led light constantly on with a blue light showing only a black screen. Any ideas guys?

I booted into twrp, uninstalled Magisk with Magisk uninstaller, I rebooted the phone but still the same thing. I also did factory reset to no avail.

Can someone please help?

Thanks in advance

Ran into the same issue.

Downloaded the whole 4.7.2 ota 1.6gb

reboot to fastboot

Reflash twrp recovery

Boot in recovery

Install full 4.7.2

Flash magisk 14.0

Finally a full reboot.

Downloaded 5.4.3 Magisk Manager apk directly, Not via MM, installed it.

Reboot.

Started MM switched to beta channel.

Installed 14.5

Reboot

Safetynet passes initially fully but subsequent reboots report cts/basic are false. MM still wants to install !
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] gwolfu:
easy way to fix this should be:

flash boot.img from 4.7.2 zip in TWRP as boot

then reflash Magisk (if needed)

I wanted to return the phone to stock just for kicks. When I did a clean flash of the full OTA.zip, then tap on reboot, I would get "No OS installed". I tried with both TWRP recoveries in the OP. Why does this happen? I eventually dirty flashed the full OTA.zip and then factory reset after, which worked out fine.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] sukesh1090:
Prolly because of the corrupted /system, I had the same problem but when I reformatted /system to ext4 and flashed only the /system partition from my backup everything got solved. So you can try something like that.

HI,

I tried this recovery. It works well for once.

I followed steps:

1. go to bootloader -> fastboot flash recovery ------.img -> used fastboot "up & down" to boot to recovery. it works.

NO supersu installed. As I booted device to system and try to reboot to recovery -> it went to stock recovery ->

TWRP installed but on rebooting to recovery --> it goes to stock recovery.

Stuck in between. Any help is appreciated

---------- Post added at 11:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:34 AM ----------

I installed TWRP, and didnot installed Supersu. For once, I booted in TWRP recovery. I booted to system afterwards. Now every time after that, phones goes to Stock recovery but not TWRP.

Is it mandatory to install super su??

There is still some time for the OB5T but ill let you know when its coming, updated the new twrp on the OP :good:

Check post 3 where its mentioned

You need to flash root (Magisk or Su) before yoy boot into os to make sure twrp is not overwriten by the stock recovery. In case you dont need root access > after the rom flash > flash twrp as an img flash from within twrp > Reboot Recovery > You will boot into TWRP again and then Reboot System. TWRP will stay as your preferred recovery :fingers-crossed:

will I be able to get ota updates when I have system less root?
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Flint2:
To get OTA updates you need to be full stock including boot and recovery

If you trick OTA with magisk hide, will download partial, will fail install and will download full, wasting the first download and your time

Bottomline: Download full and install with TWRP as recommended

[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ashramrak:
even with stock recovery ?

my thought was to keep stock recovery to be able to do OTA updates, now I guess doing that would overwrite boot after each update (so no more root)... but I can always reroot with a quick tethered fastboot twrp whenever I feel like it (truth is I don't really need it day to day... but I like to feel in control of my device :p)

without OTA working is there any convenient way of getting notified of a new update ? (like an rss feed for example)
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Flint2:
OTA will always notify you, just don´t accept the download it and came here to dowload full and follow instructions to not lose root.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] laupuy:
If you are root OTA should be the full package rom.zip and not the incremental/partial rom.

https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170923/978b052365df572bd7600177a49b00be.jpg

You can download the file and move it from /sdcard/.Ota to /sdcard and then flash rom+root to keep twrp.

https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170923/b96dddb44386e9a1cf7c5c9a302cab4f.jpg

When you download it there is a warning message to advertise that you will be unroot if you flash the OTA (full zip).

https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170923/a2ac5b52db454506ace1fce1276abf75.jpg

Never flash partial ota with twrp (it's only for stock recovery).
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Dazed No More:
Flashing the OTA will not relock the bootloader like Huawei devices will it? Only need to flash Magisk or SuperSU after and you're back in business?
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] laupuy:
1. No

2. Yes

If you flash stock rom with twrp and boot to stock kernel you will lose twrp (replaced by stock recovery) that's why you need to flash root or custom kernel (blu_spark) to keep twrp.

In TWRP when you make a backup there's an option to backup and also restore the EFS. Is that sufficient or do you still need to run the terminal commands to get the actual .bin files?

Fastboot is the lastest version I downloaded from the SDK.

[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Maginus98:
For some reason when entering the fastboot devices command nothing shows up. I have installed the Oneplus USB drivers, OEM unlock is enabled and I have just installed ADB and Fastboot via Android Studio. The google USB drivers have also been installed. When in fastbootmode the device is simply shown as Android on the computer (Windows 10)

Am I right in assuming this has something to do with the drivers for the phone?
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] gianton:

[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] shadeau:
I had this happen to me and just had to unplug the phone, enter fastboot, and then plug the phone in.

Another potential troubleshoot: did you enable USB Debugging in Dev options and use "adb devices" on the PC to always allow access to the phone?

I just want call log, contacts, and messages from my old phone

So here is where I am, I got thru the procedure fine and everything worked as expected. Installed Magisk V14.0 ad Bluspark TWRP. I did this as a clean install. I have Titanium Backup on my old phone (HTC One M7 on Lollipop 5.0.2, unlocked, rooted, etc) as well as XPosed and Xprivacy so I didn’t want to use Google to bring everything over, I just wanted to get my call log, contacts, and messages.

I tried using TB but restoring the call log from xml actually broke the phone app, it wouldn’t start. Messages didn’t come over either but at least that app would start so I had to flash the update (which fails zip verification every time, so I did it without). No contacts either.

I used to do IT work but I am not a dev, just a tinkerer. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thank you! :confused:
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] vibrantliker:
I want to reverse this process to return the device. What would the steps be?
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] shadeau:
There's an app called "super backup & restore" that you could try. It doesn't require root for those things, but it has a decent amount of ads. Sometimes big leaps in OS leads to trouble with TiBu (ex LP to N) especially with different devices.

---------- Post added at 11:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:04 PM ----------

There's a walkthrough for the OP3/3T that you can follow. It's the same procedure, but you need to use the files for the OP5T instead. PM me if you can't find it yourself, I think I bookmarked it.

Actually I´m in the same position. I suppose you would go about it in about the same way as described in this guide: https://www.technobuzz.net/unroot-oneplus-5/

So in order to do that I would need the stock ROM as well as the stock recovery. However, these don´t seem to be avaible from OnePlus as of yet. Anyone know where I could find these.

I have read the tutorial for gaining the root on op5t. But... supersu or magisk? difference?
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] laupuy:
Magisk is updated while supersu is dropped (but the last beta by Chainfire works).

And in addition it is open-source and has features (magisk hide) interesting.

So magisk on first choice.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] roxdragon:
Ok if i choice magisk? download it and flash it replacing superSU it work?
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] laupuy:
You should uninstall supersu first then install magisk.

Better way is flash stock rom (wich overwrite /system) then magisk and last reboot system.

Be careful, if you flash stock rom and boot to stock kernel you will lose twrp (replaced by the stock recovery). You need custom kernel (blu_spark) or root (to patch stock kernel).

Flash stock rom + root + reboot= twrp+root

Flash stock rom+ blu_spark kernel=twrp+custom kernel

Flash stock rom+root+blu_spark kernel=twrp+root+custom kernel aka best combo :highfive:
