[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
UPDATE:

Short story, my phones USB no longer connects and enables an ADB connection or fastboot, so I can not do the images until I get the phone RMA'd which sucks.

Just as a heads up, I have whittled the issue down to a few possible causes, or a combination of them all.

1. Was running Evo X (which is brilliant, not trashing it at all) I'd turned on force fast charging over USB.

2. I was in work and to help someone troubleshoot their usb-c hub I connected my phone thinking it'll connect as it's always been so robust and compatible. Plus it was the same hub I've got at home.

Symptom at the time was there was no connection, on opening the USB settings in the phone, all options like MTP , Midi, just charge, PTP were all flashing, but no choice could be made, now when I connect to my hub at home I get the same problem.

In summary, if you do indeed use USB-C to HDMI/VGA/display port then do not do what I did and force more juice through USB, the implications are your phone may not charge, won't connect to a pc to mount.

Things that work:

Charging

EDL - was able to restore to stock.

Mounting a USB

Connecting a controller

Keyboard and mouse functionality

USB-C headset

Just not able to mount the phone in any way beyond EDL.

Usb-C uses rx2+, rx2- and below tx2+ and tx2-

Nodes on the USB-C connection, I believe that these have popped due to a power spoke, so be careful, I had no idea it was possible, but I believe that these are directly responsible for connecting to copy data, mount the phone but not to mount In reverse IE: USB sticks to your phone.

Lastly, OnePlus has confirmed that rooting won't void the hardware, but will the software? Odd, not sure how that works??

End result, I'm covered.

Also if it's this issue meaning a mobo swap (I think it is) I was concerned about a refurb board being used due to the issues complained about on here like overheating and green screen, he confirmed that this is not the case it'll be new 100%.

Anyway, sorry for the long post (it's like a Russian novel)

If anyone's stuck on rooting from the guide or otherwise, I'll do what I can to help.

Oh and a chap a few posts up has been so kind to upload his extracted boot image for you all, based on BA, personally haven't tested it but I think you'll be fine, just boot it not flash.

Cheers and see you in about 5-10 days :(
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] SchWeinSAuG:
hey dudes.

i just unbricked my oneplus 8 pro, which i fkt up with sleeping on it and pressed buttons, or whatever ; it just didnt boot anymore.

recoverd with msm dwld tool to 11.0.7.7 , then updated to 11.0.8.8.

now i need the boot.img for 11.0.8.8 but since its incremental i cant extract image with payload dumper ?

i found an payload.bin file in the incremental update but it wont extract anything from it.

so will the boot.img from 11.0.7.7 work with 11.0.8.8 ?

or how else to i get the boot image from 11.0.8.8 ?

i cant find a full ota from 11.0.8.8 ..

thanks !!

If you can grab th whole update from oxygen updater then go for it

i could only grab 11.0.7.7 full or 11.0.8.8 incremental from the updater

That's 11.0.4.4 :)

That's why I've asked, 11.0.4.4 is the latest known version, at least on XDA.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Yep as far as I'm aware, it's no bother though

I mean even if you got a 7.7 you'd still need to update to 8.8 so it's the same difference.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] SchWeinSAuG:
Yeah sorry, must have gotten confused with the numbers here. I probably went from 11.0.4.4 to 11.0.7.7 and then to 11.0.8.8.

Is it safe to download the new system through settings? Is it possible to grab the boot.img from this zip?
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Only if it's the full update.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Jonas2802:
I downloaded the 11.0.8.8 file and "made" my own patched boot.img with masgisk, using the guide. But when flashing it with fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img" (or similiar to that). My phone got stuck in a bootloop.

Went back to stock with MSM Tool and did the same again, getting the same result (I did it 3 times but it always ended in a bootloop on 11.0.8.8) :(

Do i have to do the "patch both slots" method or what am I doing wrong?

I#m just wondering because I did it with the "normal" method using fastboot flash patched_boot.img on 11.0.7.7 an i booted successfully, without doing the both slot thing.

Hope you guys know my problem :D

Thanks for answering in advance :D
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Hi there,

Ok first off you need to read the OP, not all of it just what relates to your situation.... (It's headed)

In regards to rooting you should be 'booting' not flashing..

That way anything that doesn't boot won't be permanent.

Just reboot and you're back.

If you want to flash then you need to do both slots yes.

But I would just boot it then install directly once in the system..

If you're using the EU device then there is a boot image a few pages back...this will work on the BA / EU variant.

If you've made your own then it could just be corrupt..personally I've never had this happen but there you go .

Also you may be able to use the 7.7 boot image but there may be issues with it at some point.

My advice, make another..
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Jonas2802:
THanks for the quick answer in advance;

SO if i got u right, then i should do "fastboot boot xy.img" and not "fastboot flash xy.img", because the "booting" makes it permanent. Well I thought it was the other way around, but I thanks for correcting me :)

I use the EU device so I'll take a look at the preivous pages , thanks again.

So at the end, I should just make a new patched boot.img and trying it with the new one. But therefore I need to downaload (the full) OTA and not the incremental? And looking it up on the oneplus site, the latest one is the 10.7.7 version.

So does the app oxygen updater give me the latest 10.8.8 or where can I get it from.

Thanks in advance
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Hey no worries.

So yep fasboot boot is not permanent it will only last until you reboot.

Always always always use oxygen updater, it's faster and you get updates earlier.

Turn on advanced features then download the full update..

Make sure you're using Magisk version stable 23.0

Make sure you do the patching with this . Don't interrupt the payload dumper process or copy out the boot.img before it's complete, this just helps to avoid corruption...also when you're downloading or copying the firmware make sure it's the only thing you're doing.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Jonas2802:
ALright, just a quick question in terms of the oxygen updater app. WIth advanced features do u mean turning on the advanced mode, (it says something like that you can donwload also software that is not compatible with ur device...) or do u mean turning the update method to szable(full) to download the latest full update.

And maybe a noob question but what is the difference between incremental and full. I thought incremental is something like a small update around 200-500MB and the full update contains 2GB+

then I#ll try rooting on Magisk v23 stable and the "boot" method :D

But when ending in a bootkoop, is there a chance of ending it, i thought maybe of flashing the stock boot. img back but I didn't really wokr, so I had to go the "MSM-Tool-Erase-Everything"- Way haha
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
As far as I'm aware it's 2.77GB but that's from memory.

Yep turn on advanced then select the correct build which is 8 pro EU.

It should do this automatically.

You want 'stable full' as the version.

Of course you can flash the stock boot image but what if it was corrupt to begin with?

You're stuck then.

Hence why booting is definitely preferable.

PS: also bare in mind that that is you ran MSM then your bootloader will be relocked so you'll need to unlock it again
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Jonas2802:
Thanks a lot for cleaning up half-knowledge of rooting with fastboot booting and flashing.

My last phone was the 5T, so there was no Project Treble A/B Slot/Partition and that stuff haha. And there was a twrp version, but hopefully we will get a A11 compatible version soon.

Cheers, have a nice day :D
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
You're welcome mate.

The whole A/B thing is quite simple once you know how it works.

Basically if you update your system it'll jump from A to B or vice versa depending on which one is in use.

So if you update your system and you are rooted then you select install to opposite slot in Magisk after OTA.

This is because when you next boot the other slot will be in use.. and that slot will house the patched image.

Normal reboot doesn't change the slot in use, only a system upgrade / update, just remember to always go full if you're rooted.

You can adjust the slot in use using fasboot but honestly you won't have to mate.

If you get stuck let me know I'll help as soon as I see a post / mention has been made.

Cheers
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Jonas2802:
I'll try rooting again on thee weekend, because if o mess something up i got some freetime to sacrifice it for :D

So hopefully I don't have to do a new post haha

So I#ll do my best, if I get stuck you'll definitely hear from me :D
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Haha don't worry. Stick with booting you really can't miss.

If it fails then it'll be due to the image used. Tbh I need to obtain another and update the OP.

Just out at the moment will try when I'm home.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Jonas2802:
Hey, just wanted to say that it worked with the fastboot booting operation. I used the patched boot.img from previous pages and it worked :D

Thanks, enjoy your day

[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] franco985:
Hi to everyone, I need your help: I am on oos 10 rooted 10.5.14IN11BA and I want to upgrade to oos11. Under settings-> update I find that the update for my phone is 11.0.8.8 IN11BA. If I want upgrade in this situation I have to follow the 2nd step of tutorial but I have a doubt: after update and no reboot I have to install Magisk in inactive slot(ota update) and reboot, right? There anything else that I have to do? Please answer me, I don't want brick my phone🙏
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Morning.

Just follow the guide dude, just make sure you're on the latest stable Magisk.

In short.

1. Use oxygen updater to obtain a FULL update.

2. Install the update but DO NOT REBOOT

3. Open Magisk and click install (top button)

4. Click install to inactive slot after OTA

5. Take the reboot

Done.

Basically what's happening is you're priming your device with an update, but the slot switch does not really take place until you reboot, due to the fact that you're already rooted you have the ability to pre-load a prepared and patched boot image which is taken when you reboot and stop using the current boot slot.

Alternatively just take a full update, reboot, then extract the boot image from payload bin and patch it, then open fasboot and boot it and Install directly.

The first option I've listed is the easiest method, but just be safe in the knowledge that you aren't going to brick your device, that's almost impossible in all honesty..

Obviously make a back up anyway, but that much should go without saying
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] franco985:
Thank you very much for your detailed explanation
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
No worries mate.

[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] BeachNYC:
I'm beginning to feel like a total noob, because I have read post after post and cannot figure out what to do in my situation. It's not unique, but the answers are rarely consistent.

OnePlus 8 Pro, running OS 11.0.2.2IN11AA. Model is IN2025. Looking to update to 11.0.8.8.IN11AA. Rooted, running Magisk 23.0.

A while ago I tried to install 11.0.7.7, the way I have always done, uninstalling Magisk, running the update, reinstalling Magisk etc., but was prevented from doing so. When I clicked "restore images", i received the message "Stock backup does not exist". Since I didn't particularly care about 11.0.7.7 I just didn't proceed. Now, however, it's clear that until I fix this, I am unable to update at all.

Could some patient person explain to me exactly what I need to do? Perhaps there is nothing I can do until the full OTA for 11.0.8.8 is made available, but even if someone can explain how I can get past this issue and upgrade to 11.0.7.7, I would really appreciate it.

I know there are people with much more important issues, but thank anyone who can help me past this problem.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Go back to post #881 mate ;) like 4 before yours.

No need to uninstall anything.

This is an extract from it.

"1. Use oxygen updater to obtain a FULL update.

2. Install the update but DO NOT REBOOT

3. Open Magisk and click install (top button)

4. Click install to inactive slot after OTA

5. Take the reboot

Done."

All of the answers are indeed on these pages

Mainly in the OP
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
If you're on 2.2 and looking for 8.8 I'm sorry I don't have it..

Surely somebody has on XDA. This thread is primarily for BA / UK phones so I have no idea if you cannot obtain a full update..

I've read that there's a way around it, but because I can't replicate it then I cannot support it.

In a nutshell the normal run of the mill is the above.

You shouldn't be uninstalling Magisk at all in any instance.

7.7 is available on oxygen updater (the full update) so yes you can follow the instructions in the OP or above to obtain it and retain root.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] BeachNYC:
Thank you for your response. I understand that this is primarily not for Global, but could not find a comparable thread that was for Global.

The reason I had asked was because initially I wanted to update to 8.8. And there is no full OTA for 8.8 yet released. And I could not figure out how to do this. Updating to 7.7 does make it easier, but I'm confused on just one point. The standard advice on how to update with Magisk is to 1) click uninstall in Magisk and then "restore images," thus restoring the stock image.. This is where I got the error message that no stock image was available. But had there been one, the next step 2) would be to update to 7.7, using the system update. Don't reboot, but 3) go back and install Magisk to the inactive slot, choosing the "Install to inactive slot (after OTA)", the 4)) reboot.

Your method never goes through the uninstalling of Magisk, and that's what confused me. Is this because you are using Oxygen Update app to do the installation?

Sorry for being so dense, but thank you so much for the help you provided. I will follow the instructions and update to 7.7. Very much appreciate your patience.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dlads:
Again as I've said YOU DO NOT UNINSTALL MAGISK!!

Global, UK, China, doesn't matter it's all the same, the process doesn't change.. I house boot images on this thread but only the UK ones, but in your case you don't need them anyway, you're already rooted, you don't need a computer either, besides maybe the back up.

But that's it.

Lol,

I'll write what you do again off the top of my head, this is how sure I am of myself and of this process.

You're currently rooted and on 2.2? If yes then proceed

1. Disable all Magisk modules

2. Open oxygen updater and download the full firmware update by choosing this within the advanced settings, within the app.

3. Once downloaded, close oxygen updater and open up system settings, then system update.

4. Click the 3 dots, then click install from local storage, you should see the update you've just downloaded, if not then navigate to it, then click it, then click install.

NOTE****: once completed, DO NOT REBOOT WHEN PROMPTED AFTER THE INSTALLATION!!!

5. Close system update by pressing home, then open up Magisk manager and click the 'top' install button, then click install after OTA, allow that to finish then click reboot.

Done.

That is it, there is no uninstallation of Magisk whatsoever.

I've no idea who advised you to do that but you do not need to, providing it's a 'full update' then you're good.

The only reason I recommend oxygen updater is quite a simple one, it's faster, it releases updates earlier and you can change device if you need to, tbh all instructions are on the app, but just follow what I've written and you're golden.

What I've written from memory here without checking is probably identical to what is in the OP and the post a few before yours.

I know it's daunting but you'll be fine and you're not dense you just want to get it right.

As I've said before, always make a back up.

👍

PS: if you want a fall back plan then use my guide to extract the boot image and also how to create your own patched boot image.

These two files when complete will be all you need to reroot should something go wrong or you need to flush out a bad kernel.

This isn't needed for what you've requested it's just good practice..

I've also explained on post #881 what slots are and why they aren't confusing.

Because the dual slot system can be quite confusing at times when you don't know
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] BeachNYC:
Just so you know....

Thanks so much.
