So my OP6 just rebooted itself while sitting on my desk and wiped the userdata... any one else have this happen?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] nightfury04:
Just one more quick question... During rooting through patched_boot img... When the phone boots up and we install the the magisk zip by using magisk app's install button, in which partition does it install? I mean boot_a or boot_b? As what I can recall it didn't ask in which slot you want to install.

It might be a silly question but I keep thinking this, so thought of just ask others..

You delete the app to get rid of the extra database, and cleaners like sd maid run faster without having the extra app to skim over.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Alex240188:
It installs to current slot.

The install to second slot option installs to the one your not currently booted on.

It checks to see what slot your booting from now then patches the other one (which is the one your OTA will be writing to).

You can find it by using terminal emulator.

getprop ro.boot.slot_suffix

I have had 1 OTA and I would have expected to start on slot a so I should currently be on slot b which is confirmed by terminal emulator.

Hi,

I have been on 'Adding Finishing touches' for over half an hour now. Do you know if this is normal?

Thanks

Has anyone issues, that skipping tracks with inline remote control not working? Didn't test it before rooting, but my Oneplus Icons can play/pause and change the volume but not skip tracks. Also Huawei headset doesn't skip tracks...

Oneplus Support suggested to do a full wipe, but that's just not what I want to do now...
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] billyvenner:
Hi, thank you, but I followed steps 4-7 correctly. I also had no APKs in the Magisk folder at the time of install and retrying.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] CrazedBoredom:
On stock, the skip tracks works fine for me with my Bluetooth headset and Spotify. Haven't tried other apps or other headsets.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] gigeaky:
So I have a little issue, I don't know if it has anything to do with rooting but after I unlocked the bootloader and used this method for rooting I don't get notification for some apps (eBay, yahoo mail, fb messenger sometimes notifies when I unlock the phone). Has anyone experienced BB something similar?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Alex240188:
Try either uninstall reinstall of effected apps or wait for an app update.

This issue is common when restoring with Titanium backup.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] gigeaky:
Tried that, didn't work ?

This wasn't a titanium restore, it was a from the other phone or from the cloud restore

Thank you for this guide. Root was easy. I confirm that xposed breaks safety net. Not sure if there is a work around.

I would like ask about busybox, because I just found that no applets were found, so I cleared busybox data, it installs to /sbin. I tried another busybox app which installes to /system/xbin. Which path is correct?

The reason I'm asking is because I have some issues with TitaniumBackup, which can't uninstall YouTube (I tried to uninstall, because vancedYouTube Magisk module installs but doesn't seem to get really installed). Also I have issues with restoring the TitaniumBackup from Sim City Build It.

Maybe something with root access is not fully correct?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] wuilly:
Try

Clear data of apk

Uninstall APK

Install apk

Run APK (will ask for permission needed)

Restore via titanium (only data)

I hope that helps
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] chrisjcks:
hmm

I followed the guide, successfully unlocked bootloader.

i then went back to fastboot after re-enabling usb debugging & did the "fastboot boot patched_boot_magisk1642.img"

but my phone just has a black screen after the 'fastboot mode boot up image' & has been for a few minutes - do i wait or do something?

edit: I just powered it off & its booted up with the unlocked bootloader, but now i dont know if the 'fastboot boot patched_boot_magisk1642.img' worked.

Hey guys need help. I install it and it work good have rebooted several times no problem. But today I notice that i had no root and magisk says that it is not install if I try to install it it only gives me the choose to download or patch the boot image.

How can I fix this. Thank you.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Flying Fox:
Delete magisk.zips in magisk folder. Maybe you've to reboot, then try again.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] RynO-SauruS:
I want to do this but my only reservation is that I might lose Netflix and Amazon HD streaming. However, I have seen a few reports of HD streaming still working, despite having lost Widevine L1 support.

Could those with Magisk Safetynet-passed root access try Netflix/Amazon and see if they get HD video?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] wuilly:
There was nothing on the magisk folder. Is there any way to return to stock and start all over again.?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] magnamentis:
sure,

adb push (stock boot image, there are a few floating around with different names) /sdcard

fastboot flash boot_a boot boot.img OR fastboot boot_b boot.img (full image name)

eventually simply fastboot flash boot boot.img (full image name) it will flash to current slot.

the boot.img is basically the kernel and the stock variant contains no magisk root patches hence you can start from scratch
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] wuilly:
Sorry for being so dence this a/b thing is confusing the heck out of me, it was so much easy before.

So if I just do

fastboot flash boot boot.img (that is the name from the one here)

Then reboot.

That will errase magisk compleatly.

And then I can start all over again?

Or

Do I have to do all of the steps you indicated.

Thank you for your help
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] noldar:
For me you only need to

fastboot flash boot boot.img

and then reboot and you should be on stock boot.img without root.

If it doesn't work, flash boot.img on a and b as mentionned by [MENTION=5372360]magnamentis[/MENTION] :cool:

For me, I was installing modules on magisk including sdk27 next thing I know magisk is gone. I cant see it. But I'm still rooted and some modules are working. How can I get the magisk icon back to open up the app?

Edit: Nevermind I installed magisk manager back, dont know how it was uninstalled.

BTW when installing sdk27 for systemless xposed, you fail safetnet ?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] foomanjackel:
Hey big thanks to b1czu! Unlocked bootloader, rooted, and magisk installed. Unified hosts ad-blocking and v4a modules are working!! :highfive:

Until some custom roms come down the pike .... I am good to go!! Thanks again! :good:
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] magnamentis:
has been answered correctly, this reply just because i'm used to reply to questions directly at me.

the A/B thing is much less complicated than it appears on first glance, it's like often with new things, looking like a big mountain to climb but

in fact it's easy. BTW you can check in TWRP recovery which is your current slot.

in case of doubt you can always flash a kernel (boot.img) to both slots which is recommended to be on the safe side as long as total and long term routine did not penetrate the community. i must say that i always flash the kernels to both slots, same as recovery while the img on first recovery flash can only be flashed via fastboot but there is a recovery flashable zip that one can flash from within twrp to the other slot, also recommended even though i don't know 100% for sure why, thing is that after i did it that way all went smooth like it always has been.

be confident, it will turn out well ;)
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] wuilly:
I did as instructed first just boot.ing did not work then try doing the boot_a boot _b and soft brick my phone.

But the good thing is I am learning this new a/b thing. Went it boots it goes black and a white led
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] magnamentis:
​

re-lock the bootloader, re-unlock the bootloader, fastboot flash stock boot.img and twrp over that if you want that.

i can't tell what your config was before but i once had similar issue on the 24th of May and above method brought a clean slate back.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] brown1178:
Hello, I would like to ask for your experience because I'm facing some small issues. Before investing the time to go back to stock and try all over again, I would like to be shure that my issues could be solved by trying again.

First off all, the main issue is that LlamaLabs Automate is not able to troggle mobile data and battery saver (maybe more, but I only need these two) which, according to LlamaLabs dev is due to insufficant root privilegs.

Setting SELinux to permissive solves the issue, but I don't want to do this. It worked on every device before, the One and the 3 with ResurrectionRemix. Could it be that OOS handles SELinux policies differnt to Lineage based ROMs, or could it really be an issue with my root privilegs?

The second issue is (was) that I couldn't install vanced YouTube with MagiskManager. It flashed without any error, but was not installed. Later I found the App on the XDA-Labs, installed it and it worked. Also in the first try I wasn't able to uninstall YouTube with TitaniumBackup, but after I installed vanced YT, I tried again and now have it successfully uninstalled.

Also restoring certain TitaniumBackups from ResurrectionRemix can not be restored, for now I only found SimCity not to restore.

I'm hoping that you can tell me if these issues are related to some faulty root process or are maybe related to other things. You would really save me time I can spend with my daughter.

Oh, and anyone with wired headset is able to skip tracks with inline remote? For me only gestures and bluetooth works, not wired...

My phone only boots to bootloader or recovery. But web doesn't recognize my phone I wanted to reflash the original boot.img but I can't. What now?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] elnatanmelamed:
The stock recovery not working after root

The stock recovery not working after root
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] magnamentis:
how do you define "not working" functionality is quite limited and if your recovery does not boot at all simply reflash one of the working root boot images while i recommend to first flash the stock boot image, both to boot_a and boot_b.

as an alternative you can flash stock boot image and a standalone twrp variant and magisk from within twrp.

as it seems all variants until know are working for some and causing issues for others while the exact reasons have to be narrowed down yet.

most users with issues have claimed to have followed instructions to the letter which i doubt but cannot proof otherwise, hence we have to take as that for now.

best will be to either wait till things get sorted or to try different procedures and variants until one of them works.

it's recommended to start each process from scratch, means from cleans state since as it seems, once the worm struck it won't be easy to get back on track without some kind of borking the device. not difficult does not mean impossible, just too many bricks happened to call it safe.

[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] magnamentis:
that's only a few, worked well for most, always ad "FOR ME" to such posts so that others know.

of course one has to admit first that something is different in his case.

i for one had no issues with stock recovery and i'm not sure but i think i asked you something and got no reply.

what does "not work" mean, it's not a precise and hence not a valid description.

last but not least i see very few logs across the board, hence the many speculations and dead ends.

one user says he followed the procedures but no log, hence nobody will ever find out what happens and in the process no patterns will

be discovered to post here as warnings or possible culprits.

BTW this is the second post, no questions, no descriptions as to what you did and how, 2 posts in total both simple flapsy statements that are not entirely true.

i hope you're aware that this already borders to trolling, hence be careful (if you care) else someone will report sooner or later.

The only differences I've seen are some people's phone shipped with 5.1.5 and slot a has nothing.

I really don't get what people are doing to break things as the installation method is pretty simple
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Fen-X:
Xposed always break safetynet. There

never was any work around. The solution is to use rootswitch or as i do, install xposed systemless using magisk. When you want to use mariobrun, pokemon go, google pay etc... Just uncheck the module in magisk m reboot and safetynet will pass. When you finished on google pay, pokemon or other, enable again the xposed module in magisk and reboot the phone.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] brainymd:
I installed xposed apk through Magisk but not from the module menu as the module within didn't install correctly for me for some reason. So it does not show in the module menu. Not sure if that still can be considered systemless.

I can still disable xposed from within the app itself. However, my main reason for xposed is XPrivacyLua. So, disabling it even temporarily defeats the purpose. Lol

Thanks for the helpful reply!
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Fen-X:
I'm sorry. I wanted to bring an help but in your case (don t know how or why the module didn't install correctly) my answer is not helpful. If i will have new informations i will back to you.;)

Can someone enlight me please.

It s my first oneplus device. I used to use twrp on my others but this tile i m rooted following the op and the youtube video attached. I ve not flashed anything (no have twrp because waiting for the official one). Now, i have to send back my 1+6 for a replacement (maybe will change for a refund to place a new order because the replacement process take a long time) approved by oneplus. I want to unroot, uninstall xposed, perform a full wipe to clean the device like it was deliverd to me, and relock the bootloader.

What s the right way.:

Need i just flash boot.Img downloaded on goole drive or have i to follow the video beginning by the end (in magisk, uninstall, reboot to fastboot, flash to a and b partition or only a partition... ). This treble project confuses me a lot. How to perform a full wipe without twrp(maybe in fastboot mode but what s the command) and without bricking the phone.

This is what i found here but not sure it s all that i have to do :

'' Is there a way to revert back?

Yes. You can flash back stock OOS 5.1.5's boot.img, because nothing other was modified. Link to download STOCK boot.img for OOS 5.1.5 https://drive.google.com/open?id=1RP...tkxncH3PLBTZp_

To revert you need fastboot tool:

Code:

fastboot flash boot boot.img

And that's it. You're again rootles on stock 5.1.5's boot.img.''

Thanks in advance for your help.

If i wanted to go back to stock and lock the bootloader how would i go about doing that? I followed this tutorial and everything works magisk and safety net all i have really done is install some pixel things from within magisk. But if i wanted to go to complete stock then relock bootloader what would the process for that be thank you in advance.

I followed this guide and everything works for me.

Maybe the guide should be updated with a more clear list that users really enable oem unlock and usb debugging before flashing anything (right now there is a link to a different post)

That is a bit confusing for people who don't flash often.

PS: no twrp installed currently

Thanks for this. Was investigating / drooling over Xposed knowing only that it didn't play well with custom ROMS

I'm on stock w/twrp3.2.1-0, magisk 16.4, rooted. Only loss is Widevine L1 is L3. This is apparently gone right after unlocking the bootloader. Other than that, all secure apps see my phone as unrooted.

Not gonna blow safetynet over xposed, will find workaround.

A few days ago I rooted my phone successfully this way as described and flashed Viper4Android module from Magisk. Everything went fine but sometimes V4A wasn´t working for any reasons. So I played today around to get it started but it failed. Don´t ask me why, then I opened Magisk and ticked V4A to hide by Magisk. That was a really big mistake. Having done this the phone rebooted automatically to recovery mode (I haven´t flashed TWRP). When I tick the button to start to system, the device reboots, let´s me enter the PIN and password and finally is booting ready. But in the right next moment a popup comes up saying power off and the devices is rebooting to recovery again. The same happens when move to fastboot and try to reboot to system. After entering PIN and password it will end finally as described in recovery.

Any ideas what went wrong and what I have to do to get my system back? Some help is really appreciated.

Does freezing cause any problems like breaking safetynet?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Fen-X:
I'm agree with you, i preffer xposed over safetynet. the only difference i can see betwen us is you have twrp and me no. I'm rooted following this thread : https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-6/how-to/oneplus-6-magisk-root-oos-5-1-5-t3794440.

i've installed busybox osmosis, youtube vanced, and others modules in magisk and everything was good. At this time i can't do tests because i ve sent back the phone for a replacement because i ve noticed gaps on the phone corners between the body and the screen where dusts infiltrate and become encrusted. As soon as i will receive the new one i will investigate. Mybe you will find a work around before i receive mine.

Sorry for the noob question guys. Which is the safer way to update the system when Magisk is installed with stick recovery? Are OTA working? Should I uninstall Magisk before and flash it back after?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] Flying Fox:
You have to go to Titatium Backup. In my case Android System Webview was hibernated. Then go to Settings, Developer Settings, WebView-Implemantation and chose it if not already chosen (automatically).

But take care. Also after changing to another Rom or starting from scratch as I experienced yesterday, these changing in settings can persist and cause issues.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] brown1178:

My phone´s back in business. After thinking about what to do especially not to lose data I tried to flash the stock OOS 5.1.5's boot.img. Thanks to [MENTION=1894196]b1czu[/MENTION] for that useful hint on page 2 oh this thread.

After permanent bootloops to recovery with this boot.img flashed the phone booted now again into system and keeps staying there. Of course root is gone. But the most important thing for me I lost no data. Just have stored the data, because I did not before. :D

For anybody else who´s running into this recovery bootloop this might be helpful to get the system started again.

Now I´m going to root again. Hope everything will be well again.

Edit: Using this rooting routine is throwing the device back to that recovery bootloop. Flashed again stock OOS 5.1.5's boot.img. Sytem get´s started but stayed of course unrooted. How can I get root back again. Any ideas?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] TheNetwork:
no problems at all
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] magnamentis:
the question as well as the replies are dangerous. you cannot just generally ask this questin because i assure you that you cannot freeze ANY system app without issues.

generally i froze a view apps of which i know from many years experience that they won't cause me trouble but to give you one example, under certain circustances you can't freeze chrome and on some devices you can't freeze google.

freezing google on a nexus or pixel device won't let the sytem boot to UI for example and freezing chrome on this device can kill functions that need webview.

so what you have to do is to ask if any one had issues freezing a specific set of apps and then you'll get feedback per app. everything else is playing lottery and the unqualified replies will let less experienced users feel save where in fact it's not automatically so.

Is it yet possible to do a full restore from a backup using these unnofficial twrp's yet?

Has anyone tried restoring a backup and were there any errors?

At the moment I don't feel comfortable without a backup and have already had to start from scratch twice since getting the phone 2 weeks ago. It's a PIA without a safety net there.
