My apologies everyone. I thought I used flashing unlock when I unlocked my device, guess not. Guide is fixed and I'm very sorry for anyone who got stuck. Also, the official XDA YouTube video for this device makes the same mistake from what I remember... Slightly annoying as I checked this process with their video.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] redpoint73:
Some steps seem needlessly complicated to me. Not wrong per se. But rather than messing with adb sideload, I think it is a lot easier to just download or transfer the TWRP installer zip and Magisk files to the device after you unlock the bootloader (can't do it before of course, since unlocking the bootloader will wipe those files, as well as any other user data) but before you fastboot boot TWRP.

That way, you can fastboot flash TWRP, flash the TWRP installer, flash Magisk, and done.

Also, you can't really do it in the sequence you suggest. If you do Section 2 (install TWRP installer) then reboot before flashing Magisk, the phone won't boot, per the TWRP developer in his thread:

If you will flash the installer and you are stock you need also to flash magisk or your phone will not boot again

You can transfer the file while in TWRP, but the way you have it written (reboot, than put Magisk zip on the phone), doesn't work. Again, just easier to put the files on the phone, before you fastboot boot TWRP (but after unlocking the bootloader).

+1 ^^^ this. In some other threads here for the 7 Pro, that is the method called for. The same basic method we've been using on phones with unlockable bootloaders for years now. It is the method I used. Worked seamlessly and I was unlocked rooted and rom'd in under ten minutes.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] slayerh4x:
Listen, I am all for anyone doing whatever they want. Credit to you for caring enough to make this as well.

The way I see it is the people who brick themselves are gonna do it using any guide...

Things like that happen because they just don't read, period. They see a lot of words and skip to the end.

If you look in any guide thread the latest post is always someone asking a question that is literally one of the steps.

With that said, I am still glad to see people trying to help. [MENTION=8690129]Arden144[/MENTION]

To do this do i need to be on International or can i unlock bootloader flash TWRP and install MAG on t mobile USA version?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] flyingmedic:
TWRP shows 0 storage.....

So this is like my 4th time trying this. I have the OnePlus Pro 7. It is boot loader unlocked. I flashed TWRP NOT by using these instructions, because that failed 100% of the time for me, but by changing the command from “fastboot boot” to “fastboot flash boot”. That’s the only way it worked. I then sideloaded TWRP and that all went well.......

EXCEPT now my TWRP shows 0 storage. I’ve tried everything that I could find online from wipes, to reformat, to changing storage types/size.....all to no avail.

So if anyone has any idea that I haven’t tried....I’d sure appreciate it!

TIA
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Arden144:
AFAIK the instructions on the TWRP thread are assuming you are rooted, as flashing the TWRP installer zip unroots you, causing the phone to not boot. Having a clean OOS unrooted install should boot unrooted with TWRP
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Arden144:
Where does it fail with my guide? I don't think

fastboot flash boot

will ever work as you're overwriting the bootloader with TWRP... Phone probably won't turn on after that and would have to reflash stock bootimage in TWRP or fastboot
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] flyingmedic:
It does boot. The only thing that I can’t do is flash Magisk, as my storage is showing 0.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] paysen:
Thanks for your guide, did it today.

Couldn't get it done first, because I used the cable from my Huawei p20 pro. ADB worked, but fastboot didn't.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Arden144:
Where did you get your TWRP files from?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] redpoint73:
Incorrect. The TWRP tread instruction do not assume you are rooted. The excerpt from the TWRP thread says

stock

, that means not rooted. I believe the TWRP developer's instructions.

You shouldn't write a guide on something you think "should" happen.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] SWATNLK:

I would like to see a guude on how to add dual-SIM to the T-Mobile firmware. I have tried both firmware and prefer the T-Mobile firmware, but I also need the dual-SIM capability as well. The best of both guide would be awesome! I have not tried flashing the newer OTA's for the internatiinal-US firmware over the T-Mobile firmware but hopefully that will still work to enable dual-SIM on the T-Mobile firmware.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] redpoint73:
This seems completely off topic for this thread/guide.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] jcsww:
Okay. I thought it might fall under dirty flashing one over anofher.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] redpoint73:
Dirty flashing only keeps user data. What you are talking about (dual SIM functionality) is embedded in the phone's operating system. What you are asking for probably takes some sophisticated hackery/developer experience.

[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] arpitp:
Ugh, that's what I get for not bothering to check XDA for the latest version. You were right, and the latest version works to load TRWP and root with Magisk as expected.

Thanks!!
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] nabril15:
I had to send my rooted phone to Oneplus to have the charger port repaired, and I got the same phone back; I was expecting a different unit perhaps since they claim to have repaired it in 1 day, Dec 25.

When I turned it on, it was at the initial setup screen, so I assume that they wiped it or whatever.

After the initial boot of not setting up any accounts, it downloaded the 10.3.0 update, and it awaits installation. However, I am not sure if I can/should update and then attempt to root. Or if I should root on its current load, 10.0.3, and then try the update.

Or, is it possible that I still have root and magisk and all, as I had it when I shipped it? I do not see the initial warning screen about the bootloader when you unlock it, so I assume that my phone was completely wiped and returned to stock/unrooted.

Thanks
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] null0seven:
I suggest to install twrp and root. ARDEN guide it's very good.

Do NOT install any modules, yet.

Download the rom. Update with Settings > System > Local Update. Don't reboot !!!

Go back to Magisk > downloads > TWRP A/B Retention script. Install it. Don't reboot !!!

Go back to Magisk > Touch install. Choose (Install to inactive slot after' OTA)

Reboot to system. If Magisk is not instaled or not working good, reinstall with Direct Install (Recomended).

Happy new year !

Just received my OP7 and just can't get adb to recognize the device so I can unlock the bootloader.

None of the solutions I've tried work.

Any ideas?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] nabril15:
did you follow the beginning steps to the OP exactly as stated? I just did them, and it took me 12 minutes to unlock, twrp, and root the phone.

Will this work on T-Mobile OnePlus 7pro Android 10 with an unlocked bootloader without converting to the international op7p????
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Hälftebyte:
Yeah I did. I think the drivers weren't installed properly.

I'll try uninstalling drivers and start fresh.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Hälftebyte:
To explain further adb actually recognizes the device but I'm not getting the prompt on the phone to authorize adb.

So adb devices just shows my device followed by unauthorized and so I can't move forward.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] nabril15:
Ok.

On phone, have usb debugging enabled in the developer options, and in the notification about the charging, click on it and switch to file transfer. Type adb devices again, and then you should see the prompt to authorize. If not, go into the developer options and revoke all previous rsa keys (or something like that). And then start over.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Hälftebyte:
I've tried that multiple times. The prompt just refuses to pop up.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] nabril15:
Are you using the original OP cable?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Arden144:
Go in your device's developer settings and click Revoke adb authorizations
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Hälftebyte:
Yes, I'm using the original cable.

I've done that many times as well.

I'm going to reset the phone. Not much on it yet to backup so I'll reset and see what happens.

Strange that this is happening. I've tried removing and reinstalling the adb drivers too.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] aydio:
Hi Hälftebyte, the prompt doesn't appear for me as well. However, at this point I'm wondering whether a prompt is even supposed to appear? I mean, the goal is to unlock the bootloader. In the settings below "OEM unlocking", it states "Bootloader is already unlocked". When I go beyond Step 1 and run

adb reboot bootloader

the fastboot screen states "DEVICE STATE - unlocked". When I then run

fastboot oem unlock

I get the following output:

FAILED (remote: Device already : unlocked!)

So, I guess I'm done? Confusing as heck nonetheless.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Hälftebyte:
Looks like you're already unlocked and probably authorized.

I can't move to next step cuz it says

"device unauthorized. Please check the confirmation dialog on your device."

My bootloader is still locked. It says it when I'm in fastboot.

Using the same cable and laptop I'm able to run adb commands on my Oneplus 2 so I'm not sure what else to do. :confused:

I'm going to try on another laptop in case it's a drivers issue.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] -BoneZ-:
Is there a way with Magisk or TWRP to mirror one slot over to the inactive slot? Meaning, something got messed up on Slot A on my phone, so I'm using Slot B which is working perfectly. I'd like to copy everything from Slot B over to Slot A so that both slots are working correctly. Is this possible?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] null0seven:
I don't think so.

We got 2 slots so if something go wrong on slot A phone can boot OK on slot B.

Nevertheless, i'm not an expert.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Hälftebyte:
I got through and I'm now rooted. I used another computer with fresh driver install and it worked. Thanks for all the suggestions.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Bagpuss:
Just in case anyone else sees this, I thought I'd document a problem I had with the installing TWRP step.

I followed the directions for unlocking the bootload, and this worked perfectly.

However, when I attempted the 'fastboot boot' step, then it just hung with 'waiting for any device'.

Running 'adb devices' did show the 7 Pro, so I knew it was being detected.

To solve this, I ran 'adb reboot bootloader', and once the phone was in the bootloader, I ran the 'fastboot boot' command.

The boot.img downloaded fine, and I was able to follow the rest of the instructions.

And just too confirm, an OTA full update like this doesn't wipe storage?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] redpoint73:
It shouldn't wipe storage. I've updated this way (section 4) several times with absolutely no issues. On they other hand, if your data is really important to you, back it up before updating. Nothing is foolproof with these devices.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Mesmurized:
I like your idea. Thought about this as well.

There's a thread (** below) that shows all the different _a / _b partitions. Seems to me a simple dd if= slot a of= slot b would successfully copy all the data. Then a TWRP slot change selects the boot slot.

Also, if you've ever used the unbrick tool, it flashes a lot of _a and matching _b partitions

Seems simple to me, but likely there's a lot more to it

If I have a problem with a kernel, is it possible dirty flash with TWRP? Keeping magisk and TWRP
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] syntropic:
Need some help with my update

OK. I followed Section 4 above (update while rooted).

I did each step, and now I am in the situation as follows:

First, after following all steps, upon reboot, I got the start animation slowly repeating over (orbiting clircle) for about 10 minutes. So I stopped this and booted into recovery.

This is what I found:

Slot A:

Recovery shows populated /sdcard/ (my storage contents) including the downloaded OTA

I am assuming this was my original OOS (9.5.13)

If I switch to this slot, decrypt, then boot system, it does a bootloop (start ==> unlocked bootloader notice ==> restart)

Slot B:

This (I am assuming) was my other slot where the update was/is to be installed....

The /sdcard/ shows nothing—its empty.

When I switch to this slot in Recovery, decrypt, and try to boot system, I get the same endless boot animation as described above.

I have TWRP.zip and Magisk.zip on my Slot A storage, and as described above it appears TWRP is working in both slots (although I am not sure if this is using a RAMDISK or what).

Anyone have any suggestions as to what I could do to get this update working? I thought about flashing the update... but I do not know how to flash an update on Slot A onto Slot B.... I am still a little befuddled with this dual slot config. I just want to get booted into the update. I know how to flash TWRP and reflash Magisk, etc.

Thanks a lot in advance!!!

EDIT: I might have made this worse... While in Slot A (which was the inactive slot and seemed to have a bootloop... I flashed Magisk. Now trying to boot from either slot I get an endless orbiting circles. I know when you restart after an update it makes your original OS the inactive slot... I thought by switching to a different slot in TWRP I was making it active again...but perhaps not

I am going to back up storage and then flash the OTA directly... Do you (or anyone) know how to flash the OTA from one slot to the other?

Thank you!
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] null0seven:
If you are rooted with Magisk and got twrp on the phone, Yes.

1. Uninstall any Magisk mod's. Reboot

2.Upgrade with Local Upgrade. Don't Reboot !!! (OS must be a newer that you got installed on the phone)

3.Open Magiksk > Downloads > Install TWRP A/B Retention script. Don't Reboot !!! (This keeps twrp on the phone)

4. Back on Magisk > Install > Install to inactive slot after OTA.

Reboot to system.

This works fine on Oxygen, stable or open beta. I gues should work on Hydrogen, but i can't test that.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] Mesmurized:
To be safe, just flash the OTA a second time
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] redpoint73:
You've asked this a couple times, and I think you are misunderstanding something. The OTA file resides on the userdata partition, which is shared between the A/B system partitions. The OTA file is not "on" partition A nor B. When you flash the OTA from settings, it will do so to the inactive slot. Or you can select from the update menu to do a local install, which will be the active slot (need to move the OTA file to the "main" directory of storage from the .OTA folder in order to do this).

Now why you can't "see" the data partition while booted to Slot B (as you mentioned in a previous post) I don't know. So that might be one source of your confusion on this.

After rooting process,netflix & amazon prime working with HD stream?
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] redpoint73:
I don't think you meant to quote my post, as your question is completely unrelated? If that is the case, next time just delete the quoted part of your reply (as I know that including a quote of the post is default if you post a "reply").

Netflix is limited to 480p after unlocking the bootloader, it is discussed in many places. Some folks have claimed to have 720p using a hacked version of Netflix app. Not sure about Amazon Prime.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] syntropic:
I appreciate this response.... and yes this has been a source of confusion. I now understand that my storage (if healthy and otherwise not corrupt) will show up under /sdcard when either slot is active..

But I am now having a real perplexing problem. I have been going in circles... Let's say TWRP says slot A is active.. So I dirty flash the OTA. Now I am unrooted. I have Magisk already in my root in storage, but I reboot anyway because I think what is driving me nuts is that when I reboot, the active slot switches to B. Correct? Why? I just flashed the OTA to Slot A??1?

But I accept that is how it is.

Ok so anyway, I boot into a working OS. I then adb reboot fastboot because recovery is gone (because I just flashed the OTA to Slot B not A as I had originally thought). fastboot boot twrp.img. Then adb sideload twrp.zip. All good. Now I am still on Slot B right?? OK. Next I reboot to a still working system, which is not rooted. So I reboot into recovery. I get to TWRP and flash Magisk. So I should have just rooted Slot B. So Slot B should have recovery and it has been rooted. However, when I reboot. I get stuck at the "Unlocked Bootloader" screen.

Initially I thought I accidentally switched slots and that is why it wasn't booting. So I rebooted back into recovery and then switched to the other slot (which turned out out to be slot A), rebooted recovery, and then dirty flashed the OTA (to make sure I have the same thing on both slots). I then reboot. Now is it making Slot B active???

All I know is that I keep doing this and I can never get a working rooted Rom because the active slots keep changing.

So you said I should to a local upgrade? When should I do this?

Thank you very much!!!
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] syntropic:
Thank you very much for your information.

The problem is that every method you mention requires root to work (in order to flash anything from Magisk Manager, you need to be root).

I am starting to think there might be a problem with Magisk possibly at the moment. Because no matter what configuration of steps I take, I cannot get a rooted system.

I'm just incredibly frustrated .. especially now that I think I finally figured out slots thanks to you.
[OnePlus 7 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion] syntropic:
It was Magisk. You have to root with version 19.4. I did that and I was able to boot into a rooted OS.

After that, you can update to the most recent version in Magisk Manager.

Does not work for me..

Hi, since I got massive problems with LineAge on my op7pro, I now like to re-flash the latest original ROM.

Why? --> After updating the lineage via "OTA", the cellular modem does no longer work.... Maybe it was a bad idea to

run an OTA update with TWRP installed ?!

But there is no way to install anything via ADB commands.

The Lineage OS starts, I activate USB Debugging and it accepts the command "adb reboot bootloader".

But now it does not accept any other commands. adb devices does not even work..

fastboot boot twrp_xyz.img results in "waiting for any device"...

Seems that there is absolutely no chance to reanimate my phone..

I am sure it has something to do with the Memory Slots, the lineage recovery tool does not allow

to select slots.. I relly need twrp :(

There is only one thig that works: I can apply an update using adb sideload from the lineage-based-recovery tool. But I only can flash a lineage zip-file, but I like to flash the oneplus stock image ZIP..

Is there a zip signature check?

please help
