Didn't need MSM after all.

I had been trying to restore stock img from a backup by the custom kernels. I tried letting magisk do it, then went straight to the update, and it worked.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] js042507:
So you just flashed your stock boot.img via fastboot manually?
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] gaww:
No. I used magisk uninstall - restore images. I had not tried it earlier - would have saved me 8$-+-678+//€¥®© time if I had !
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] js042507:
Oh I see. Yeah, since the .31 OTA...this no longer works for me. I think my phone just hates me. LOL
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] gaww:
What do you expect - it heard you cursing TMo.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] js042507:
Ha ha ha
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] gaww:
You might want to to look at a magisk rom on the 8pro rom thread (I tried to send a link, but can't find a way to do it on the app). It is supported for it, but works on most OnePlus devices, as it's not a regular rom.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] Haunt3r:
I'm sitting in the same boat as you, and I'm not about to do the msm tool. lol guess I'm stuck on this update. Once I can do the jump upgrade this phone is out the door though, it's been nothing but a pain in the ass.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] js042507:
Yeah I don't know what changed to be honest. I haven't done anything different. But it must be something. LOL. I feel the same way though. I'm probably jumping ship as well.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] Haunt3r:
I'm trying one more thing then calling it a day on this. I used PROPs to change my fingerprint and thought maybe that was affecting it, so I restored the fingerprint and trying the update one last time. I'll let you know how it goes.

After reverting to the default fingerprint via PROPs I was able to take the OTA. Also in regards to automatically rebooting, there is an option in developer options to turn off automatic reboot when finished with the update, so you can turn that off and reinstall magisk on the fly there.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] js042507:
Whaaaaat??? Seriously? Well I don't use PROPs, so it's not my cause of failure. I'm glad you got it working though! I also never had luck with that option. It's always been on for me, but the phone would still reboot after installing the OTA. Maybe that's fixed now, but I can't even try. Also, my suspicion is adaway, since it modifies the hosts file in the system partition. But OTA used to work before even with adaway. UGH
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] Haunt3r:
That was the other thing I did was remove the hosts file via AdAway just in case.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] js042507:
How did you go about that? Did you do a restore of the file via the app? If so, I've tried that too.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] Haunt3r:
That's exactly what I did, went into the app, let it update, chose "disable adblocking" after this was done force closed the app and continued with the update
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] crazyut:
Does this work with the .34 version that I am getting nagged with today?

Updated to 10.0.34:

Works great, better battery (so far); root works flawlessly.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] js042507:
No dice for me. I think this phone just likes to piss me off. ?
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] Raylon00:
I changed my kernel, and now I think I need to msm update
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] gaww:
If you only flashed one of the kernels and magisk and manager are still intact you should be able to uninstall\restore image. That wipes the other kernel and unroots - then fix that.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] Raylon00:
I tried a bunxh of things with no luck. Did the MSM Upgrade and re-Rooted.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] tmushtare:
I was not able to install magisk after the update because it rebooted itself... Even after booting a magisk patched.img. Does this mean I need to start over using the msm tool??

---------- Post added at 11:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:12 AM ----------

I hate to ask this again but would it be possible to remake the script you did for the .31 reserve.img fix.. With the new update? I am currently on 10.0.0.34 with no reserve.img, due to jumping the gun and unlocking bootloader for 10.0.0.34 after the update finished. I ended up having to use the msm tool :/ OR tell me how to edit your script so I can get my reserve.img back? Thank you in advanced!!
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] NotATreoFan:
So you have 10.0.34, and unlocked the bootloader after updating to it?
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] tmushtare:
Unfortunately yes I did :( I was at work and was rushing through the process.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] crazyut:
Even with all the "fixes" for reserve.img since .16, I have had to use the MSM tool (thankfully, titanium backup for all my apps/messages). I tried the unrooting before update (never works for me). I just MSM it, wait 5 minutes and restore, root, and go on. I've got it down to a science and with the debloater module, no more photos, chrome, or files updates.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] NotATreoFan:
Give this one a shot: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=4349826312261814735
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] tmushtare:
It worked!! Thank you again very much! You saved me. Between now and the next update I am gonna try and teach myself how to edit your script so if this ever happens again I won't have to ask you again lol
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] NotATreoFan:
It's not my script originally, I just cleaned up the wording and spaced some things out to make it easier to read. With each update, you just need to pull a fresh copy of the reserve.img, and the new kernel. I name the kernel based on the build version, as you can see. The reserve.img appeared to be unchanged from .27 to .31 when using Beyond Compare, but the MD5 changed, so I still pulled a fresh copy.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] tmushtare:
That's fine, well then I appreciate you making it easier for us to understand! So would I use something like these commands, but instead of trying to pull boot, I would edit it to pull kernel and then reserve.img?

Now in TWRP, enter the following commands to extract your stock boot.img file...

adb shell dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/boot of=boot.img

adb pull /boot.img

Also after looking through those files I'm unsure which is the kernel? Is it a conf file?
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] NotATreoFan:
Kernel and Boot are the same thing.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] tmushtare:
Okay, perfect! So to get the reserve.img... Would this work?

Now in TWRP, enter the following commands to extract your stock reserve.img file...

adb shell dd if=/data/reserve/

adb pull /reserve.img

Is this what you named the kernel in the most recent reserve fix you posted? boot_10.0.34_magisk.img
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] NotATreoFan:
You can pull reserve.img using any file explorer with root access. Just browse to /data/reserve/ and copy reserve.img.

Correct on the kernel/boot naming.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] tmushtare:
Thanks for all your help man! & What if I was in this same situation as this though, where I used the msm tool to restore & I have no root? Would there be anyway to pull kernel and reserve.img without root/fresh restore?

adb shell dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/boot of=boot.img <--- In this command. Do I need to replace by-name with anything specific? And do I have to specify boot_a or boot_b?
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] NotATreoFan:
The MSM tool restores you to full, locked stock. As soon as you unlock the bootloader, your reserve.img will be gone. Only way to get it back is to root and replace it.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] tmushtare:
So technically I would have to get someone to send me their reserve.img again? Since like you said mine would be removed after the unlocking. Let's just hope this next update goes smoother haha
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] gaww:
The person you responded to has one on another thread.

So glad I am on a non-carrier ROM now - don't have to go through this stuff anymore.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] tmushtare:
What you mean by that? "This stuff anymore." And could you help me turn mine into the international ROM please?
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] Haunt3r:
I too would like to know how to switch to a non carrier rom on this device. I don't even use the 5g so that's no big loss on my end.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] champ784:
What ROM are you running?
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] gaww:
Not possible

I went through a dozen hoops to get unlocked, rooted, and then trying to update - which was the worst.I MSM'd it and put it on eBay.

I now have an 8Pro. It took 15-20 minutes to unlock bootloader, root it, and set it up. Later in the day, an update came through. Undated and rooted again in 15 minutes.

It has the same TMO bands for LTE and 5G and none of the TMo "stuff" - it is their updates that are the problem by the way.

You are lucky that there a few people over there that made what could be done possible.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] tmushtare:
I have heard many success stories where people contacted T-Mobile chat help and through them they are able to remote into pc. And switch your phone to international rom. People do this to unlock the dual sim.

You could also try and learn how to automate the whole process with a script. I understand it's a bit difficult. But I can Msm and be back up and running with root in less than 8 or so minutes!

I just pray they don't stop development for this device! As I do not wish to upgrade to a phone with a punch hole camera.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] NotATreoFan:
That would be OnePlus support, not T-Mobile. But that is not an option for our specific phone, because there is no international/global version. The closest thing is the non-5G 7T Pro McLaren, but it has a different device name, so MSM tools will not run on it to convert.

And to be honest, a lot of people are blowing this way out of proportion. Some examples:

No custom kernels - Not needed since 10.0.31, as the severe 5G battery drain was fixed

Rooting - once you've had the phone for 40 days, T-Mobile will SIM unlock it for you, allowing you to proceed with bootloader unlock

OTAs - Phone has been out for less than 6 months, and received 5 OTAs

OTAs Failing After Unlock - Can be fixed in less than 20 minutes, and only have to be done one time

And the list goes on and on. This specific phone runs much better than the OP7 Pro from T-Mobile did, which is why so many people converted it to international firmware.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] apophis9283:
Not implying that folks do this, I was able to get mine unlocked first day due to my work here. The question I have is, does anyone have a build number for whats coming up?

And yes, I had oneplus try to fix a fingerprint issue but I didnt have my receipt, but I noted the guy did say it would have a different boot animation. As I got excited, T-Mobile ended up doing an exchange. But Ive been at this awhile. I knew what he meant by boot animation change
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] NotATreoFan:
Mine was unlocked early as well. There's a mention of new 5G bands and the May security update coming with 10.0.35.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] apophis9283:
Cool, thanks. Guess stuck in waiting mode until they decide to drop the OTA
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] t436h05t:
I followed the root guide and was on update 31 when I rooted, I restored the reserve.img fix script and verified it in root explorer /data/reserve/reserve.img

Next I tried to uninstall Magisk via Uninstall Restore Images = I get "Stock Backup does not exsist"

Any ideas? I thought it keeps a back up during the root process??? I have my boot.img from before the root process on 31.

Can I just "fastboot flash boot boot.img" from my local backup?

fixed issue by:

fastboot flash boot boot.img

and re-rooting
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] apophis9283:
Has anyone got it yet? It shows on T-Mobiles website. Or do you have to unroot for it to even show there is an update
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] Exathi:
No I'm on stock it's not there yet
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] apophis9283:
Thanks. Just weird they would have it up. Though this is my first phone I haven't run a custom rom.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] ttabbal:
Unlocked/Rooted will see the update. It just won't be able to install.

I just got it. You uninstall Magisk with restore images. Then reboot the now unrooted phone, and install OTA using the built-in updater. For the install to work, you must have done the reserve.img fix since you unlocked the bootloader. It only needs to be done once, it sticks until you unlock again, so don't lock it.

When it's done, follow the root steps again to re-root the device. It's super easy. It would be nice to be able to the the whole thing on-device with TWRP, but I guess the TWRP guys have been having trouble with a lot of the newer devices. What we have is good enough, if a little less convenient.
[OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren Guides, News etc.] crazyut:
I did the reserve fix for .34 first (since I never restored it); did what you said with regards to Magisk and it took the .35 update (this is the time since .19 I did not have to use the MSM tool. Rooting and modules were always the easy part (but I hated having to restore from backup and resync my music collection (3600 files out of 33000 files).

Thank you for making it clear.

[OPPO Reno Questions & Answers] zhuge24:
Hello fellow users,

I have the Chinese version of the Reno, the PCAM00. One night I dropped the phone on the stairs, taking some real damage to the back panel and to the display. The LCD cracked, but the touch panel stayed in one piece . I replaced the screen by myself, I did a lot of screen replacements for other phones until now. Now I got this issue: the fingerprint sensor is not recognized anymore; I opened the phone again to be sure that I connected the under screen camera, all was in good order. After this re check, trying to set up at least one security check- except the password- because the phone is quite big and a 6 char password can be seen by near people, I tried to set up the face unlock. Still nothing, when I try to enroll a new face, the camera pops up and quickly retracts saying just "Sorry. Unable to enroll. Please retry." . The phone has this function, I enabled it in the past, but because is quite awkward to have the camera moving every time you unlock the phone, I disabled it:).

Is it possible that the security functions are disabled by software? Have anyone encountered this issue? Is there a fix to it?

Note: I bought the display from aliexpress and the product description was "Original M&Sen 6.4" For Oppo Reno AMOLED LCD Display Screen+Touch Panel Screen Digitizer For OPPO Reno Display"

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
