dladz​

Thank you. And all other who helped out.(y)

To un-root & Lock the bootloader, Qualcom driver it's not the most important thing!

I got a laptop with one usb 2.0. Pfeewww !.. Still no qualcom 9008 driver in Device Manager.(win.10 pro_x64 with the latest updates).

I tried first Tool from Mouronofrio, then with ADB (drivers, adb/fastboot installed). Still does not see the phone in Fastboot/bootloader mode. With the phone ON, yes.

In MSM app Android 11 shows " Not connected". I read online that could be some problems with android 11.:geek:

I downloaded MSM Android 10 , now it shows "Connected", but does not show OnePlus or anything else. I said what the hell, press Start.

It worked.

I plugged in OTG flash drive with Oos 11.0.77. Flashed.

Now i am on Android 11.0.77 Locked, no root.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
I wasn't fully aware you could even do that but it's great to see that it is indeed possible.

Nice one for taking the risk..
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Haha nice.

Glad you got sorted mate, bit of trial and error. 👍

Just wanted to confirm the switch from AA to BA was successful following this way. Was just waiting for RiCE to update to a version compatible with 11.0.7.7 before proceeding.

And yes you're right, no noticeable difference between AA and BA. Guess I'm sticking to it if it means faster updates.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
This is really good to know, perhaps they're streamlining for the purposes of moving to 12?

Obviously I've never tested this in the past, but if this is permanent then I find it odd that it's taken til now to identify this.

I'll update the OP if we get a third person doing this
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Fishawy:
Yeah it is surprising to me as well. Thankfully it's not as complicated as other processes.

After doing some reading, one thing you cannot do, which is changing between regions with the same build. So for example, going from 11.0.5.5 AA to 11.0.5.5 BA is not possible, it has to be an upgrade to a higher version.

Haven't had the chance to test it though, as I was upgrading to 11.0.7.7.

Is it ok to go from 11.0.2.2 (global) to 11.0.7.7 (global) using full ota file?

Hi,

I have bought oneplus 8pro 3 days back 12/256 i am on 11.0.7.7 IN11AA , model: IN2020.

I have unlocked the bootloader and i want to root now. I used xiaomi before and new in Oneplus system.

As far i know, I need the patched boot.img to root it but i did not find for my version. Can anyone help me showing the way ??

TIA
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] jimger:
Try either to create your own (with payload dump) or try to boot with the equivalent image from here. I don't think u can hurt your device with booting any image. If u manage to boot then u can use magisk to actually patch your real boot image
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] tfae:
Did you bother to read this guide?

It's the 1st step. Hard to miss.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Hi there,

Ok so you have a global device which is AA, this thread contains a guide for you to make your own, but the images hosted here as per the guide are for BA which is the UK / EU variant.

You can try these patched or non patched images but they were never intended for use on an AA device.

Some people have used them and they've worked but if it were me i would simply obtain my own, all you need to do is read the OP (original post) and follow the guide, you really can't miss.

If you're feeling a little lazy, there are a few AA threads with already posted patched images, but again, i would make my own.

PS: If you check a few posts before yours you'll see that an AA owner was successful in booting and eventually flashing the BA I've hosted here.

Soaccordingto that post #794 it would appear that 11.0.7.7 will indeed boot and work as expected (BA-AA)

Is recommend booting it first from fastboot then installing directly once in magisk

Hi, I'm trying to do this on my OP8 using crDroid but it gets stuck on the boot screen. Any tips please?

thanks
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] jimger:
What is crdroid? Also here is for op8 pro not the normal one
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Trying to do what?

The guide is universal so yes you can extract a boot.img and patch it then boot / flash it using the guide.

But do not use the boot images or patched images for crdroid..they're for OOS on the 8 pro so won't work..

What exactly did you do?
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] DHRL:
Sorry, I extracted the boot ok and fastbooted the patched boot image of cdroid. That's getting stuck on boot screen.

Apologies as I've not rooted since Android 9 when all was done via TWRP
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Excuse me, i'm totally noob

i was on Android 10 EU ( rooted ). I updated from Android 10 to 11 using OTA and I have lost root. i wasn't on magisk 21 yet.

Now what should i do to get back root ?

simply use a patched magisk and use the "select and patch a file" methode?

Sorry it's too complicated for me
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] ayurmouli:
this is the magiks version i used try with this. I got root with this. Extract the boot image patch it then flash it both the slots. If u are not getting root. Same re patched image once again re patch it. Then flash both the slots it should work.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] :
oh yeah i frogot to mention :

When i'm looking on Magisk it's says : installed N/A

So when i try to instal the 21 version it says :

-Device platform: arm64-v8a

-Copying image to cache

-Unpacking boot image

-Unsupported/Unkown image format

-Installation failed
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
It's not complicated. You just need to read it.

If you're on 11 and you've lost root then you'll need to match the version I've quoted in the OP, a user has put it in the post below yours.

Then just follow the third guide.

Flashing via fastboot

That's it
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
You need to use fastboot. You cannot use the direct install or OTA install without root.

Patching a file does not flash it.

Follow the third guide.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] :
ok i'll do my best thank you both of you

Do i have to delete the magisk that's already on my phone ?
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] jumpet:
I used my own boot.img and magisk patched.img with exactly the same fastboot commands and I finally get root. So that I don't know what happened.

That's why I asked if your file was okay, but I'm reading that some users have used it without problems...

[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Lossyx:
Flashing both slots is unnecessary, as the inactive slot will just get overwritten after an OTA.

And I recommend just booting the patched image, and do a direct install in Magisk Manager.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Najim8:
Thank you dladz everything worked finnaly rooted phone again !

and thanks to ayurmouli for his version of magisk
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
I would yes.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
It doesn't hurt anything to flash to both slots.

This is a thread for beginners more than anything, adding several steps to identify the active slot is not something im going to do, if you read my initial guides, there were two.

I was never going to make a guide for fastboot.

I may add the boot option, but seeing as I've never done this myself (besides twrp) means I would need to test it.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Excellent, nice one.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
For your phone you should be fine.

Just re-patch that file I provided with the recommended magisk manager in the OP, there's a download a couple of posts before yours, the flash in fastboot.

Apparently it can be booted instead of flashed and then directly installed.

I haven't tested this yet, but the logic makes sense.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Lossyx:
You don't need to verify anything. It will automatically flash the current active slot. fiddling with slots(now and in the future) is just confusing and is generally something you shouldn't do.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
I know how magisk works, that's not what I'm referring to.

If you'd like to continue this, then PM me, I don't want this in my thread.

I've added your method to the OP

hello sir

i found strange issue after rebooting there is no signal. once again i reboot i get signal.

[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
I've seen a chap talking about this in the other thread, he was getting this issue and jt was due to magisk mods iirc, see what they're saying..
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] ayurmouli:
hello sir

i would like to inform you that i just flashed the boot image directly (i didnt flash A and B. DIRECT FLASHING BOOT IMAGE PATCHED).it flashed on the A slot and i rebooted and i got the root. just thought of inform you.

thank yo
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Excellent, thanks for reporting.

Appreciated.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
So the guides in the OP but in short.

1. Grab the payload.bin file from crdroid, copy it to your computer's and run it through payload.exe

2. Grab the boot.img in the output folder and pop it on your phone.

3. Patch it using magisk, use the latest stable think it's v 23

4. Grab the patched image from downloads and copy it to your fastboot folder.

5. Boot it and then once booted, open magisk and install directly.

That should be it.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] DHRL:
I'll try again, thanks.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Good luck mate..

You obviously have to allow crdroid to boot first.. guessing you knew that but thought I'd mention it

You could also try magisk.zip and root using the lineage recovery. Believe there's a guide for that too.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] DHRL:
Screw knows what I was doing before, wrong file in to payload probably, but it's all working now. Thanks :)
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] DHRL:
It's working now, thanks. I think the hot weather is frying my brain!
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Hahaha no worries mate. Glad you're sorted
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] DHRL:
Now tonl get Google Pay to work with Magisk lol
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Yea it does, a good way is to set it up prior to root.

Then root and hide, also make sure you go systemless.

Reboot and it'll be fine
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] DHRL:
Sorted with Magisk and using Sqlite etc
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Was that required? Sqlite?? Shouldn't have been
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] DHRL:
Yep, to have G Pay not pick up that it was rooted
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Yea I've never needed that before.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] glhelinski:
Hi

I'm updating 8 pro from

Hello

I'm just now getting around to doing this (full ota from 11.0.2.2 to 11.0.7.7). It looks like instructions #4 in OP is what i should use. QUESTION I've seen some instructions say i can just disable each module in magisk settings and some say to remove them. Which is the better option? And why?

Thanks

Greg
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Hello there,

Yep that's correct 4th would be the place for you to start, providing you are indeed rooted now on 2.2

In regards to modules: it depends entirely on the module, some for example my clock mod is based on the OPSystemUI.apk which is different in each iteration of OOS so yes this will either cause the launcher to fail or the phone to be able to complete the boot process.

So for this reason alone I would definitely disable anything which could rely on anything that could be altered between bases.

You don't need to delete the module, simply disable it and during the shutdown process it will disable it so it won't be active when you next boot.

Then once you've booted and it's functional, you can re-enable and see if they work, if they do then great, or if there's an updated module (again my clock mod has been updated for each OOS update) just install it and you're good.

If a module doesn't work then just follow the guide to remove it, it's in the mod thread I believe and it involves booting to safe mode, then when u reboot it'll have disabled each magisk module.

You'll be fine mate 👍
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] RMarques:
Sup guys, I've been out of the loop for quite a while.

Have anyone tried with OOS Open Beta 12? Is it Android 12?
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Lycidias:
Working good but no android 12. Probably the last android 11 beta
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
I'm almost positive that it's possible, just follow the same guide and you'll be fine mate.

This thread is mainly for EU stock but the guide will work with any ROM on the 8/8pro/9/9pro etc
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] RMarques:
Thanks bud for keeping this thread alive and for always been so eager to help.

I'm not using the EU version, but it have always worked for me, since day 1, when you started this thread!
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
You're more than welcome mate.. just happy to help.

I made it as I know that clarity is something that people begin to look for before moving into the more obscure guides, threads and data.

Then being told when things go pear shaped

"oh it's on page 3,977 didn't you search"

Meanwhile your phone's bootlooping :D

Being like that with people in a workplace makes them be less confident and less likely to speak out or take a stab at something through fear of being shot down, I hate that and think it's actually bullying. So I try to be the absolute opposite, if you're understanding with people then they're more receptive and are in turn more likely to try things and build their confidence. I'm all for that.

I like clear and concise and yea I appreciate you seeing that, means a lot, believe me it does. So huge thank you for that.

If I don't understand a process and I can stomach the learning curve then I'll always make a guide, keeping knowledge to myself to somehow make myself important isn't something that I see as a good way to be, on here or in life.

I've worked with people who do the same, they don't share knowledge, they really for people to go to them then they'll fix things but not share how?

Confidence thing maybe?

Personally all the guides I've written I mainly made them for myself but in turn your understanding of the process grows whilst you structure the guide. Then people started to benefit from them so I started making more.

I made about 400-450 full guides in my last work place, some were over two hours long ;)

They became the knowledge base, anything that was a pain point I made a guide for, anything that was usually a dead end I made it my business to find a one size fits all fix.

They're still being used today lol.

Good times.

PS: you should try it, next time someone shows you something just make a 1-2-3 guide as if you're talking to yourself in the future, you'll never forget it, I use Google keep a lot, the info I've got on there has saved me tonnes of times

Hi! I downloaded

[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Must be the version of magisk? That's all I can assume it could be. There's been a bunch of people who've had issues booting /flashing and the only variable is magisk.

With that in mind I'd repatch it with your magisk, then boot it.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Daniel Kvalsund:
I downloaded the stock boot img from your link and patched it with an earlier version of magisk. My phone still goes into fastboot.

[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] jimger:
I haven't managed to make it work with latest patch. I am unrooted now. Try to flashboot boot patched boot image but get into bootloop
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Which version of magisk were you on mate?

As far as I've seen the latest stable version is best, version 23 I believe.

And were you already rooted? So you took an ota and went for that OTA option in magisk? Or are you rooting from scratch with a full update?

Also make sure you disable your mods and anything that may be firmware dependent, personally I'd disable all magisk mods.

And hopefully you're booting the patched boot image and not flashing it straight. That way your bootloop is savable by simply rebooting.

I'm on way home now so will patch it myself and send it in.

If you're still unable to boot, you can flash the stock boot image to both slots, that will get you back to your OS.

From what I can tell from the changelogs update there isn't much of a change in the way of aesthetics, OPSystemUI.apk is unchanged, so more than likely a lot of the system apks will be unchanged.

Let me know how you get on, I'm mobile but on my phone so can answer quickly
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] jimger:
Tbh I didn't disable the mods. I did full upgrade through oxygen updater. Tried flashing inactive slot with magisk. Didn't succeed so. I went to payload dumper. I used flashbooot boot so now I do write from the mobile but without root... I had magisk 23 but also tried canary as well
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Ah ok, so you were rooted, that's good.

When you did the update. Did you make sure to grab the full update? Not just an OTA as it will matter (guessing you did but just making sure)

And flashing, yep can be risky, can also work but this is the problem when it goes tits up.

So did u flash the stock boot image? And get your phone back to normal?

And yes depending on what mods you had running they could very well be the culprit.

Not to worry, this is what I'd do if I was you.

1. Get your phone booting: flash the stock boot image to both slots.

*NOTE: you have to select advanced, download full update in settings within oxygen updater.

2. Install magisk (stable) 23.0

3. Copy the boot image to your phone and patch it, copy it's output file from downloads to your computer.

4. Boot to fastboot then boot (not flash) the patched image.

5. When it boots, Open magisk then select install / direct install.

6. Re-apply all mods rebooting between each activation.

Let me know if you get stuck 👍
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] jimger:
Yes I did full upgrade. I never flashed the patched boot image. Just booted it... Maybe I should try to flash it. But since I am on vacation I try to avoid the hassle... I really miss twrp...
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Oh you said you flashed it?

Nvm..sounds like it may have been the mods after all then..

Next time there's an update, please read my guides in the OP, there's one for each situation, warnings included like disable mods ;)
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] jimger:
Do u know a way to disable them now? Ideally without deleting magisk? I don't want to lose the list of apps tha I have enabled magisk hide 😂
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Sure, you can just boot to safe mode mate.

Boot your phone to the bootloader warning then hold vol up and down.

Again this is in the OP ;)

I think, may be my other thread.
