[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] culiacanazo:
Guys and gals, i don't know if it's been mentioned, and if it has, just ignore, as i don't have the time to thoroughly dive into this, but the beta 6 has been cited in China as culprit of heating that wasn't there before (IN H2OS). I still bring it up for 2 reasons alone.

•For your benefit, if it does rear it's head this side of the Pacific!

and,

•for what I'll say next, reason for which the H2OS mention is needed in order to better put it in context and perspective, in case anybody wants to trek into the 'unknown'. :cool:

That was intense! But I'll mention something rather unusual, i must admit, related to your rant, in case it helps anyone

Hey, handsome!

You too gather, I'll be quick.

Ladies and Gents, allow me the cross posting, as it's our sis thread and i believe it's pertinent. I know it sounds like I'm gonna announce a breakthrough of some kind, yet I'm just gonna share my little journey that kinda flies in the face of any previous knowledge and experience, maybe someone can shine the light?

I didn't have the pleasure when i went to Flashynton, but funny names they have, are they married? Or, wait, they... Hah! :silly: how long do you put them in the oven for? :laugh:

Please see screenshots, they may or may not upload in order... So this morning as you will have gathered i had contact with krypt0 and cultofluna, both arising from my choice of flashing procedures and having touched upon that it got me going so off i went, fully, convinced i was gonna end up getting more intimate with the MSM tool, believe me, I'm always "hoping" there and that; not today.

After having being in only one good slot, unsure what was in the other, but definitively none of what I'll mention next, i set out.

Was on Smurf, ob6, magisk, and that's that's.

My choice this time around? Hydro! Had been back and forth but that's for a different program. I looked and looked until i found the ob 6 since it had to exist! And found it. Or so I thought! And flashed it (to the damaged slot only).

Followed Zackptg5's tut on decrypting (which it works, but it doesn't work out, since i get locked out of my phone the first try after setting said screen lock) and no more.

Boot right up! To Hydro, a perfectly working environment, and no need to format or wipe save cache/Dalvik, once and before anything... Already set up (as don't we share data?)

Go check out if everything is good, and January (H2OS) is especially great, she says. She asked me where March (OOS) was, i said i dunno, so i went into the other slot to look for him, and yup, there he was, so i left again, headed towards "other", kinda like when in a movie you blink rapidly in disbelief of what you're seeing. Yes, no problem getting to back to January (H2OS) either... BUT just then, we received a message from the heavens IT WAS HER TIME TO GO! :crying:

When it was consumed, i left, as her parting brought a newcomer, and she kinda kicked me out while she settled, and now i have an even bigger, against all odds, perfectly working mess.

Sum it up:

That Hydro January was bound to be replaced with Hydro March, only that i let the local upgrade do its thing, didn't intervene, that means no uninstalling magisk, no flashing thru twrp, nada! Reboot, and yes, reboot it did. But, wait, what about ob6? Lol buried under the newer hydro. With the other, older one, being as accessible as I'm typing this up from here, i had to check. So, what's going on?

My intention was

2 matching (security) dates (i.e., March) in

2 'different' softwares (hydro and oos).

Instead, I'm on

2 matching softwares

2 different (patch) dates!

Excuse me, you more mortals, I've got to travel BACK TO THE FUTURE, now, I'll meet you there :D

Oh, yes, Googley is there, for those that worry they'll miss him...

... What? Me, you ask? I, uuhhmm, still can't figure out my issue with decrypting messing my lockscreen :rolleyes:
