Yes you can use that to downgrade your device. No one will be able to tell your device was ever rooted as this performs flash at very low level (Qualcomm emergency download mode). As a sidenote OnePlus own support website states the act of rooting doesn't void warranty (see https://www.oneplus.com/global/support/shopping-help/details#85000005+GD00000034 )
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] sag35:
Wow that is awesome. I never knew that.

Did you use this method to root your phone? Is it fairly simple and straight forward? I was great at doing it on Samsung but a bit unsure as I've seen fingerprint scanners go missing etc.

Any recommendations would be appreciated
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Some_Random_Username:
I don't own that device (my daily driver is a 5T) but to root your 8 Pro you just need to extract boot.img of your current OOS version (full zips files you can extract it from can be found in my other thread), patch it following instructions at https://topjohnwu.github.io/Magisk/install.html#boot-image-patching ,unlock bootloader by using fastboot oem unlock and then flash it to your current slot using fastboot flash boot_x magisk-patched.img.

Note that x must be replaced by a or b in function of the output of fastboot getvar current-slot.

Regarding the fingerprint sensor issue, it happens generally when trying to crossflash another regional build: /persist partition is getting damaged. You can however back it up preemptively using dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/persist of=/sdcard/persist.img in a terminal emulator once you will be rooted.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] arjun_m4:
Does anyone know how to flash persist.img file? I took backup of my working file and now the fingerprint stopped working.

So I was thinking of re-flashing my working persist file.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] cultofluna:
Make sure you have the persist img file in your SD card

On Terminal app ( termux , Terminal emulator , whatever..)

Su

dd if=/sdcard/persist.img of=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/persist

And reboot

anyone...

so i got a qualcomm crashdump, hat to restore with this tool, was not able to back up persist (as i was in crashdump)... my fingerprint was working perfectly before... used this tool and now nothing... fingerprint enrollment issues...

As the title states, I'm on the most recent build of oxygen is and using a USB-C to HDMI adapter the phone displays for one second then stops casting. I'm casting to a Samsung 4k tv and it just struggles. I've tried on a 1080p monitor and it works fine but I intended for use on the bigger TV. Any suggestions or ideas on how to fix this issue. I tried downgrading my launcher back to the previous version. The one I was on was the latest available on apk mirror. Before I disabled the experimental desktop mode and freeform windows. the phone would show the desktop on the tv but nothing would display. Netflix would launch and freeze up.

Tl;Dr phone is acting up when using usbc to HDMI adapter need help or ideas on how to fix. Might get another adapter

don't know if this is the right forum but ppcgeeks was down and i thought i'd ask here...

when i download wallpapers for my touch onto the desktop they look fine, if i have to resize them to 240 X 320 in photoshop i do, but when i set them as my today's screen background the images are fuzzy/low res in certain areas of the image

is that just the 65,000 color display limitation of the phone? or are there some settings in ps that i can use to change that when resizing images...

thanks

The dual screen is nice. I love having a video on One screen and whatever miscellaneous App on the other.

The HBO App would will pause every time a screentap is done on the other screen. Netflix Amazon no problem, just HBO. It effectively makes HBO useless for having Two screens. Small first world problems. Trying to let HBO aware but not getting my hopes up.
[LG V60 ThinQ Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mejilan:
Does this happen regardless of which screen the HBO app is running on?

Like, if this is an issue when HBO is on the second screen, have you tried moving it to the primary instead?

Yes. It's a shame because I love HBO.

Im on latest Pie bootloader.

System on my phone is latest pie fn, its stock and its rooted. Do I have to do something more to install your Rom. Change kernel or something? Im wwiting for your answer.

Its not on android 10, as it was said, this rom requires latest Pie bootloader, lets say Pie system, on which you can install TWRP without any problems, the problem in this one inst that, its this Rom.

I tried to decompress and extract images inside the ROM just to see what we have there and to confirm debloat and other claims, but with no success at all. I used different methods and tools but as I said, no success.

At the end I think we'll have to wait a word from dev.

Guys, it seem all you bricked your phones due to this 'ROM' and the 'developer' is not replying anything. Maybe you can try to flash tour phones with Odin. But for that you have to download also the stock Samsung image. I did this in the past and it was successful for me. It took some time to find out why is my regional phone version - mine was COO bought in Colombia.

[Samsung Galaxy A7 (2018) ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries] JoostA:
Alas, this has never been done for this really popular model. I guess that is the reason we now get all kinds of dubious ROM's to try whose only outstanding feature are the shortness of their life, total lack of support and overall lacking quality of the developers. In my opinion it would have been far better when we could prmarily make use of the well maintained Lineage OS in stead of new short lived projects. For those that are interested: standing on the shoulders of Lineage you could than more easily develop functioning other ROM's.
