[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dirk:
TWRP doesn't, but unlocking your Bootloader to get TWRP on your phone does. To hide the unlocked Bootloader state, your Kernel needs to be patched. Most custom Kernels are patched for this reason and hide the Bootloader state.

There are other things that might cause safetynet to fail. Older Root methods like the LOS SU Addon, or selinux being in 'Permissive' mode.

Magisk Hide is usually the cure for most safetynet problems.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Simon1511:
So does Unlocking bootloader on my A5 2017 breaks the safetynet?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Oswald Boelcke:
As @Dirk clearly stated it depends on your kernel.
[Magisk] noukon:
remove double post
[Magisk] noukon:
I'm running AospExtended 5.8 (Android 8.1) on my whyred device and never had problems with passing the safetynet but after upgrading my device no longer passes the test.

Does restarting your device (temporarly) fixes the issue?

Yes, it fixed the issue.

I have the same problem as you. It worked flawlessly until Magisk 17.3 on my XZ1 Compact, but since 18.0, I have to restart my device all day to play Safety net-restricted games :(

It will work on any version

Alternatively try the version that should support encryption

Rename to recovery.img

Then put phone in bootloader mode, connect to pc and type in a cmd/terminal window assuming you have fastboot

Announcement & Disclaimer

While we are on the Beta Thread, I thought this goes without saying, but it looks like some users do not read the thread before they flash the builds. Thus i have added the disclaimer just to make them aware that reading the thread is necessary and i would appreciate if they also participate in the discussions rather than just doing an update and remain silent.

Currently the OTA is paused and thus i have removed the existing build mirrors. It is likely that we will get a new build in the coming days and till then, i would request users to stay on Beta 3 and those who have already updated, no need to panic, please stay on Beta 4. I will update the OP once the rollout begins again with the updated builds.

As i have always said Feedback whether good or bad is extremely important to Me and OnePlus, as it is only on the receipt of such information, OnePlus can assess and improve on the software experience, so please don't shy away from sharing your experience.

​

Needless to say but i have added the disclaimer on the OP. This is a Beta Thread and things can go bad sometimes. I always recommend to take backup before you proceed or flash a new build. If this is your primary device i would always recommend to stay on Stable builds instead of beta or you should have everything backed up and ready to loose all before you start.

What OnePlus has achieved today is mainly because of its active community and early supporters and OP would like to keep it that way and maintain its focus on the community while building the software to enhance the user experience.

Thank you for your continued feedback and support.

Never Settle

Bug Reports Beta 3 :fingers-crossed:

Reported Issues on Beta 3 by the Testers:
* Private DNS doesn't work

* More to be added as reported by the community, Please Tag [MENTION=6143932]Funk Wizard[/MENTION] while posting the bug reports, Thanks
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Funk Wizard:
Guys as this is first build, although dirty flash will work but i recommend a clean flash to begin with and use stock system upgrade to do so. Also battery life on this build will not be as good as the stable one so keep that in mind while flashing the build.

I have kept a post reserved and will update the known issues as we test.

Please Tag me [MENTION=6143932]Funk Wizard[/MENTION] for whatever issues are faced on the beta so that we can report it to the team directly.

Thanks again for your support.

I was on beta 1, running smurf kernel, and everything was functioning perfectly. After updating to beta 2 with the same smurf kernel, I've had several freeze ups today. When scrolling through apps, texting, etc. Has anyone else been having random freezes?

Will we ever be able to use Verizon with dual Sim on the 6t?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] dpryor88:
Might be custom kernel so I'd ask this in the Smurf thread.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Funk Wizard:
Please do not use custom kernels if you want to report issues, atleast in the beginning of the release. Most of the times the old kernel is not compatible so please wait for the developer to update and release a new version. There is no Freeze issue with beta 2. I suggest you dirty flash the whole rom once to come back on stock kernel and check again.

No idea on that buddy :confused:
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ledvedder:
I tried a dirty flash to go back to stock kernel. I still experienced some freezes.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Funk Wizard:
There should be no freezes what so ever, please do a factory reset or make a clean flash if the issue persists :fingers-crossed:
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ledvedder:
For the record, it wasn't a total freeze to where I had to hard restart. It was either a hesitation or an app freeze and crash.

Mine works Fine, but i did a full wipe..
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Nic2112:
If I start from stable, download Beta 2 file from the OnePlus site and do a local upgrade. Is that considered a "dirty flash"?

I'm currently fully stock, no root and no custom recovery
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Funk Wizard:
Yes that would be a dirty flash and would work fine, however hopping back to stable may require a wipe :fingers-crossed:
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Nic2112:
Thank you. When I went back to stock after beta 1 I used a zip file with a flash-all.bat which I think is a recommended way to cleanly go back to stable.

I'm not fully familiar with OnePlus tinkering yet so I'm still learning.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Nic2112:
Is there a way to do a full flash, with factory reset if necessary , back to stock from beta 2 and via the phone only?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Funk Wizard:
Beta 2 has a later build no that the latest stable so moving back if you are locked with system upgrade will not be possible if you are already on beta 2.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Nic2112:
Thank you,

I'm back to having this weird bug where my phone takes screenshots about once every three times I lock it. I don't have a gesture associated with taking a screenshot.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Funk Wizard:
Check your volume key is it working fine for volume up and down. You can also try using a widget to lock the screen instead of pressing the power button.

A factory reset should have cleared this bug if present. I've been using the beta 2 since release and I can't replicate this bug. Please submit the report from the community app feedback section for now. Thanks for your report.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Nic2112:
Thank you. They work fine but I am using a Spigen case that protects the buttons. I'll do a factory reset and try without the case

I can say for sure that the battery drain issue with Google Play Music is resolved on Beta 8.

I just went 3 hours streaming music and lost only 10 percent charge. On prior beta 6 and 7 I would loose near 50% of my battery in just 2 hours.

Im very happy with this beta. Very smooth and battery is good.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ultyrunner:
Yeah, battery is excellent so far. I have been using GPlay Music on the desktop today, but I didn't experience that drain anyway. This beta feels final stable-worthy.

One thing I don't understand about beta vs stable is why the stable is still behind on security patches. Seems to me that when a stable is released, if it was running the same security patch as the latest beta, wouldn't that help users who wanted to migrate back to stable (particularly those of us on a Mac, who can't use the tool to return to stable) at that point?

Unless I'm missing something, deciding to go with open beta seems like a longer term choice than it needs to be. Just curious more than anything, [MENTION=6143932]Funk Wizard[/MENTION]?

Anybody have the wifi disabled issue?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] astracd:
For McLaren users that are scared to lose animations etc. This is the way it works perfectly and it is so simple. topjohnwu deserve donation again.

This works for all 6T not only McLaren. I just pointed McLaren as it is specific device.

Also going from stable to beta these steps work. I did not try beta to stable.

I add few steps from topjohnwu tutorial: Magisk Tutorials | OTA Installation https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/tutorials.html#ota-installation"

1. Disable Automatic system updates in developer options

2. When an OTA is available, first go to (Magisk Manager → Uninstall → Restore Images). Do not reboot or you will have Magisk uninstalled. This will restore your boot (and dtbo if applicable) back to 100% untouched stock images in order to pass pre-OTA block verifications. This step is required before doing any of the following steps written below!

3. After restoring stock boot image, apply OTAs as you normally would (Settings → System → System Update).

3A. In stable to beta case, you are going local upgrade (under system update - settings)

3B. To keep TWRP - Install TWRP A/B Retention Script.

***Note: I did not test this step, as I do not use TWRP.

4. Wait for the installation to be fully done (both step 1 and step 2 of the OTA), do not press the “Restart now” or “Reboot” button! Instead, go to (Magisk Manager → Install → Install to Inactive Slot) and install Magisk to the slot that the OTA engine just updated.

5. After installation is done, press the reboot button in Magisk Manager. Under-the-hood Magisk Manager forces your device to switch to the updated slot, bypassing any possible post-OTA verification's.

6. After the reboot, your device should be fully updated, and most importantly, Magisk is still installed to the updated system and all modules are up and running.

[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] tech_head:
On the 8GB and 10GB versions there is no need for ZRam and Swap.

They swap to compressed memory which means that swapping an application into regular memory from compressed memory takes time and CPU.

It creates lags and slows the phone down. Up to 9.0.11 and I think 9.0.12 ZRAM was not even part of the OS. I think it was added in one of the betas.

Since it wasn't in earlier builds and on my Essential PH-1 (4GB RAM) I disabled it. I can't see how I would need it with 8GB of RAM when I never see usage over 6GB with it disabled.

I keep having the problem with Pandora Music app where I would open the app and play some music and let the screen time out and turn off. After a while I'll skip a song or change stations and everything is fine. Then I'll get a mail. I open the mail app, read my mail and go back to home screen, all while still listening to music, and let the screen turn off again. The next time I want to skip a song it won't do it so I click on the music player notification (where the controls are) and it opens the app again, like twice, on top of the current (running) same app and now I have 2 completely different songs playing at the same time and the app controls would only work over the second song. 1st song won't stop playing until I fc Pandora all together in Recents Screen.

I'm using a T-Mobile converted to international using the modified flashing tool to flash OOS 9.0.11 and it worked correctly then, and then I flashed OB6 and started happening, has not gotten better with any subsequent update. When it didn't get better with OB7 I went back to 9.0.11 and flashed 9.0.12 and it worked correctly as far as I remember. I went back to OB7 and the problem came back, or was still there, and with OB8 is the same. I'm only paying for Pandora so I don't use any other music app and I wouldn't know if it happens with other apps, but I seem to recall someone else with the same or at least similar problem.

It's not like I'm complaining like the other kids around here demanding this feature or that feature, but it's pretty annoying. I've turned all battery optimizations for this app and had it pinned but still happened.

Advice will be appreciated.
