No problem, quick usage guide to make sure it goes smooth.

Enable OEM unlock in developer options, also enable ADB debugging.

Plug in your phone, run crosshatchdb.

Select option 9, this will auto download and extract adb to your c: drive.

Select option 1 to check for ADB devices, check the box on the dialog that pops up on your phone.

All set. You can download magisk directly to your phone or push it from your PC.

Reboot bootloader option 2, from here you can unlock the bootloader(formats your phone btw).

Setup your phone, enable ADB debugging again and your free to reboot bootloader and download/boot TWRP to flash magisk.(use TWRP img not zip)

Hopefully these instructions are not too confusing, it is pretty easy once you do it once, and the tool really does make the next time you do it faster.

Tested on a windows 7 virtual machine and my own personal windows 10 machine.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] sliding_billy:
The time to unlock a Google purchased Pixel isn't the issue. The factory reset just sucks if you run stock for any time before doing it.;)
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] superchilpil:
Two things I think you should add.

1) adb sideload for when adb works in twrp.

2) adb logcat for our great developers, so there isn't an excuse for getting them a logcat in event that they need one.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] boostedduece:
Good idea, should be easy to pipe logcat output to a text file.

ADB sideload can be added as well, next update will probably be when TWRP ADB is fixed, or sooner depending how long that takes.

Already thinking of ways to make the current version of this script more automated, but I like to err on the side of explicit is better than implicit.

Thanks for the ideas.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Zorachus:
Can this install TWRP ?
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] superchilpil:
No. Everything you need to know is in the OP and everything else you need to know is in the twrp thread.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] boostedduece:
This.

It is a good option of you want an easy way to just boot TWRP in 1 button, if you don't want to install a custom recovery like TWRP.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] boostedduece:
New update coming soon, decided that command line didn't work very well for this purpose...

Also working on making all of the actions smoother.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] boostedduece:
New update released, let me know if you have any issues or feature requests, still waiting for TWRP to be fully functional before adding ADB sideload options.

CMD window still wants to hang out for now, you can minimize it though if needed.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] Maty360414:
can you add a (check for update)
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] boostedduece:
Yes, that is on the list for next update.

When TWRP is more reliable I will probably add options for copying TWRP backups to your PC as well.

Still need to get rid of the cmd window and cut down on having to open browser windows or file selection dialogs, just to get it feeling less clunky.

I'd like to send out a big thank you to boostedduece I've used platform tools and google flash all for years with no hitch whatsoever but I tried to glies an update to my kernel and ran into the red corrupt device thing and used my platform tools to flash all and halfway through it stopped and said error. I then tried this tool and it worked perfect!! Thank you so much!
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] boostedduece:
Glad to hear it helped out, working on some new updates to make the UI even better.

Trying to make all of the download links update automatically too, just working on some web scraping again ?

It's a nice little tool if something gets messed up, also for new users to get up and running.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] boostedduece:
New update released, Download factory image has been overhauled, it will now download the image automatically, check the SHA-256 hash, then unzip it to the correct folder, just run the factory image flash option after and you're set. Be patient, the image.zip can take a while to download, takes several minutes for me, but I'm only at 50mbps down...and who knows if google throttled my connection after all the web scraper testing lol.

Pull TitaniumBackup folder via ADB to your PC, pull TWRP backup might not work it failed for me, but will not cause any damage to your PC or phone, ADB is copying the files read only from your device, and ADB just seemed to crash on me.

CMD window is still here for now until I pipe the output to the built in box on the GUI and bind keyboard keys to interact with it. For now it will help with any debugging.

Can't believe I still haven't gotten the Ota Nov update

Will this work on p3?
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] boostedduece:
It will work for pixel 3, but you will need to download the factory image for your blueline device and extract it into c:\crosshatch_stuff\platform-tools. This program is basically a gui wrapper for ADB commands.

Just stick with the ADB tools section and find the downloads you need separately.
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] frewys:
Right

So it doesn't automate the process the same as for xl?
[Google Pixel 3 XL ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Oth] boostedduece:
It will still install ADB and allow you to run reboot bootloader, boot TWRP, factory reset, ADB logcat, unlock bootloader.

But the only extra part that is manual would be extracting the factory image into the c:\crosshatch_stuff\platform-tools folder.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] McRoberts:
So I got my moto Z2 force 6mo ago at t-mobile rooted, TWRP, stock rom. No problems at till the screen has pretty bad burn in at the top and bottom of the screen. So Motorola is going to replace my phone with very little effort on my part trying to encourage them. Now I have a problem once I unroot and go back to stock and lock bootloader there's this software change screen. My question is if I send it in will they still replace it or not. I don't want to waste my time if they will not. So if anyone has tried please let me know. I all ready got the shipping lable so I'm kinda on a time crunch. Oh yeah the only thing they ask is if there was liquid damage or if the phone was damaged in a drop. Thanks Guys.b
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] asislife20:
The second you unlock your bootloader your warranty is voided, so if your trying to get it repaired using warranty it's not going to happen. Relocking your bootloader doesn't make your warranty valid again.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Uzephi:
asislife20 is right. Only thing I think could happen is if Motorola/Lenovo act like HTC and see it as a hardware defect and still replace it. I was lucky and was able to warranty out my unlocked M7 due to it having a known hardware defect. Burn in is a grey area at best since I don't know many people who have it. My Z2 has been in service for over a year and doesn't have any burning.

Most of the time companies will know if it is a warranty due to unlocking (like breaking your partition table) or hardware (like the purple camera issue on the M7). Hardware defects are usually warrantied. I'd call them back and make sure
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] McRoberts:
Well I FedEx it today so I will know in a few days. They gave me the option to send me a new one then after I got it I could send mine back but they were going to put a 500$ hold on my account but I opted to send it first then get the replacement once they get my old one. The root has nothing to do with screen burn anyhow. It's a great phone for power and it's not a Samsung or Apple, everyone I know has sold out to those two it's sad there are much better phones out there but most people are to goofy to try them out.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] McRoberts:
I will for sure let ya guy know witch ever way it goes. It's overnight shipping so Ill know soon. Fingers crossed.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] Cleanser2012:

[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] McRoberts:
The repair order online says exchange and they sent me an email saying that the problem was resolved. so its looking good. I just want my phone back this Honor 6x doesn't cutting it.
[Moto Z2 Force  Questions & Answers] McRoberts:
The sent me a new Moto z2 force today. No questions asked in the end. Took 7 days but there's nothing like a new phone to break in. Thanks for the responses.

So I just got a new Samsung 128GB card which appears fine in my Windows laptop and it shows up using the stock Android file explorer.

It does not show up in Mixplorer nor Solid Explorer. I'm guessing that it is just some setting.

Help anyone!

came formatted from Samsung in exFAT and I reformatted it (still using exFAT). This is on the Amazon variant if that matters in any way
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] Wolfcity:
I use a 64gb Samsung SD. Maybe the device isn't able to handle 128gb? Try formatting F2FS.
[Moto G5 Plus Questions & Answers] spitswap:
it was actually a setting in Solid Explorer I needed to change and I used a very old version of Mixplorer (which I did also get working before upgrading to the latest version). It is all good now. Thanks

[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] H4X0R46:
I'm at a complete loss here guys, hate to even ask this. So I tried to connect my 6t to my Windows 10 PC and the PC won't even RECOGNIZE that anything was plugged in! No sound and not even an entry in device manager. I even went as far as to reinstall Windows 10 and no dice. I installed the One plus driver from here on XDA and they are unsigned drivers, so I disabled driver signature enforcement and the drivers are now on my PC, but with the PC not even noticing something was plugged in it's no use.

Some info.

Using the red USB C cable that came with the device.

Plugging it into a USB 3.0 port on my PC.

Installed the OnePlus driver with enforcement disabled.

More info? Let me know! I'm lost here.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Haz3:
Try a different cable. I come from the land of pixels where you'd be surprised by the amount of headaches cables have caused. If that's doesn't work I'd be stumped as well

You have to enable USB debugging and change USB configuration to transfer data..
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] H4X0R46:
Hmm... That's worth a shot! I don't have another USB C cable, but I'll get one to try. I'll let ya know!
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] H4X0R46:
I did both. Doesn't work for me :/ In Android pie, is there some setting to enable MTP other than developer options? I don't even get the heads up notification on my device. I'll try connecting it to a USB 2.0 port instead of 3.0 and see what that does.

Just ruling out all possibilities (have run into this myself on other phones) :

Have you tried another port on you PC?

FWIW,I'm using a cable from either an LG or Samsung & that's working for me.

The device is seen & I got the pop-up on the phone after toggling the associated USB options in Dev Options on the phone.

Was able to execute ADB commands for an Immersive Mode app & to use the no-root ADB Uninstall commands.

Front ports of PC chassis sometimes give too little power so try an usb port on back. try with other pc as it might be problem with your pc
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] H4X0R46:
Alright, so I tried different ports on my PC both front and back, no usb input sound or anything. I'm wondering if the USB C cable that comes in the box of the 6t just isn't a data cable? I have developer options enabled, adb debugging, and have the default USB mode set to MTP. Nothing still. I wonder why. Have you tried connecting your 6t with the included cable? Just to rule out if it IS a data cable or not. Thanks!
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] H4X0R46:
Tried some ports on the back that are part of my motherboard, same issue. No sound and no entry in device manager. No notification on my 6t either. The phone CHARGES, but nothing more.

I've just factory reset my 6T and plugged it into a USB 2 port on the front of my PC, using the red cable that came with the phone, and it immediately recognised it. You clearly have an issue but we can rule out it being a general issue.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] mickyjs:

[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] kramer987:
are you in fastboot mode on the phone? are you just running the phone within osygenOS?
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] Nosferatu.:
I'm going to say damaged cable.

Try any other device that you can plug it into. If it still doesn't work it's the cable. If you change cable and still a problem I'd RMA the device maybe faulty port on phone. Device is too new to be playing games like this. Get a new one.
[OnePlus 6T  Questions & Answers] akmsr:
I just connected my, to windows 10 laptop after seeing this post. No driver installed, red cable that came with phone, USB 3 Port in the laptop. Nothing was needed to do for it to be recognized. Worked just like that.

[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] DavidXanatos:
Its strange, on a new phone after oreo update I have unlocked the bootloader and started twrp via fastboot (without flashing it to the phone) to backup the partitions.

Now I got the update notification and it cant install the OTA update.

I have compared boot, recovery and system from the twrp backup with the files in the original firmware archive and they are identical.

Now ncandroid84 confirms that just the unlocked bootloader should be fine.

So the question is why it fails, and which partition has the problem?
[Moto G5S Plus Questions & Answers] BOPOH'Ok:
Remember. You cannot update the system by OTA if the bootloader is unlocked, TWRP is installed, and ROOT is installed. The consequences can be sad.

And also, it is impossible to make a rollback to the previous version of firmware.

AHXmin - Install next - https://www.dropbox.com/s/yh27em1auild5wf/ahxmin.apk?dl=0

Choose from blank min for wallpaper and adjustment settings only

or

Install min for 2 page with weather, news, events, and music (Must set KLWP to 2 pages and place a blank widget on page 2 to make it work)

Works for the following theme colors with a single adjust color global.

Quick settings and app drawer bg

Google now feed bg

System and lockscreen shade

At a glance and status bar font colors

Best advice I can give is that the adjust color will overload your Pixel to think that color is dominant and then all of the above adjust accordingly.
