[OnePlus Nord 2T] sahar540:
Thanks a lot for this, much appreciated!

Given that I have a CPH2399_11_A.07 Build - what would be the safest and right process for rooting?
[OnePlus Nord 2T] r-ichard:
Firstly ! Thanks a lot for this guide, it worked fine for me (CPH2399_11_A.11) .

Nevertheless, today I got notified that there is an update for my device and (carelessly) did it. So I got a boot loop constantly booting to recovery mode... I had to wipe data (format) to get my device back on working again.

I tried to do the update after data wipe and format but it failed back to bootloop again.

So here a few questions :

Is there any way to do this update and keep root ?

Is there any way to update and reroot ? (even if it implies wiping all my data again)
[OnePlus Nord 2T] garylawwd:
Sorry to hear this. My device just updated as normal with root gone and I was just able to flash the new patched.img afterwards.

You didn't flash magisk to both slots by any chance?

Or did you do some system modifications with Magisk?
[OnePlus Nord 2T] r-ichard:
Actually, I think it's my mistake, at some point I tried the "One Plus Nord 2" rooting with twrp and flashed the vbmeta.img ... before realizing it didn't match my build number. Anyway, I bricked my phone trying to lock fastboot atm. I'm trying to fix it back to stock, but it goes out of the scope of this thread.
[OnePlus Nord 2T] Photubias:
Hi,

I think I bricked my Android 12 version of the CPH2399. Would there be any stock rom's available yet please?

Thanks in advance.
[OnePlus Nord 2T] garylawwd:
Yes you can download from OxygenUpdater app on playstore from a different device
[OnePlus Nord 2T] Photubias:

Thanks for the guide, I have three questions:

1. Are OTAs still possible?

2. Is it necessary to repeat the process after an update?

3. Can someone please explain the slot issue?
[OnePlus Nord 2T] Alex_Lema:
1 - Not sure, but in other OnePlus terminals, they never were. You had to update manually.

Actually...

2 - Yes, obviously. That's why it's not a good idea to let the terminal update automatically (even if it's possible, what I'm not sure it is).
[OnePlus Nord 2T] ClumsyHumane:
Hi, how do I unroot and Relock the bootloader again? I followed your procedure and it worked however I want to revert the changes, thanks in advance
[OnePlus Nord 2T] PattasuBalu:
1.Uninstall Magisk

2.Reboot to bootloader

3.Flash stock boot.img (As per your current version)

4.Lock your bootloder (fastboot flashing lock)
[OnePlus Nord 2T] ClumsyHumane:
Can you elaborate the 4th step please? I'm very new to this stuff and don't want to take a risk
[OnePlus Nord 2T] PattasuBalu:

[OnePlus Nord 2T] Osama Amrriso:
My device is OnePlus Nord 2T EU. I bought the device 19days ago. I am experiencing battery leakage when not using the device Every 15 to 20 minutes, the battery drops to 1%. If I leave the device for more than 5 or 6 hours while I sleep, the battery drops 13% to 16%. There is nothing running in the background.If using the device, the battery drains severely. My device was Redmi Note 10 Pro. It has been working on 120Hz for over 6 hours, but on OnePlus it works on 60Hz and I turn everything off and the battery only works for 4 hours

Note 1 : I do not play any games on it I only bought for some calls and I use social networking sites I sure the problem is caused by system updates..

Note 2 : There are a lot of people complaining in Oneplus community about October cph2399_11_A.16 update, which is the reason for a battery draining problem. I updated this after I bought the device. Is there a solution to get back the old version of Build and install it on the device ?
[OnePlus Nord 2T] r-ichard:
Hi everyone ! After updating and patching CPH2399_11_A.15 when I reboot after flashing boot my wifi, bluetooth, hotspot won't turn on (it shuts down every time I try to turn it on). Do you experience something similar ? If so do you have a fix in mind ?

Ps : If I flash stock img back to boot everything gets back to normal. I believe flashing boot wipes some drivers.
[OnePlus Nord 2T] rokkdroid:
I had the same problem with A.15. Wifi just would not work anymore.

As I bricked my device and received an exchange device, I don't know if the problem still exists on A.16.
[OnePlus Nord 2T] PattasuBalu:
I too had this issue but going back to stock rom without root and rooting again fixed it.
[OnePlus Nord 2T] rokkdroid:
Good to know!
[OnePlus Nord 2T] r-ichard:
Yes it's clearly related to A.15 I just updated to 16 and wifi and bluetooth are still working after flashing the patched image.
[OnePlus Nord 2T] garylawwd:
I was on a.15 and rooted no problem whatsoever.

Don't know why you guys had that issue.

Anyways glad you got up and running again with root on A.16 🤙
[OnePlus Nord 2T] rokkdroid:
Any recommendations for which way to go?

Use this method or go via TWRP?

[OnePlus Nord 2T] bingchillin:
When I use the command "adb reboot bootloader" my screen goes black and freezes just with the words "flashboot mode" on, if I try to continue with the next command it just says "waiting for any device" but does not progress.

Any help?
[OnePlus Nord 2T] rokkdroid:
When your screen goes black, it should say fastboot mode, not flashboot mode.

That means you are in fastboot mode and need to use fastboot instead of adb.

Try

fastboot devices

If there is no device listed, you need to update the drivers.
[OnePlus Nord 2T] bingchillin:
it may say that, I'm dyslexic and the small writting makes it hard to tell lol
[OnePlus Nord 2T] rokkdroid:
I know, I got old eyes ^^
[OnePlus Nord 2T] bingchillin:
It's definitely a blank screen which just says "Fastboot mode".

When I imput the next command it cmd just says <waiting for device>
[OnePlus Nord 2T] rokkdroid:
If your command is

fastboot devices

and no device is found, you need to update the drivers on your pc.
[OnePlus Nord 2T] bingchillin:
adb devices shows my device.

when I use fastboot devices nothing happens at all
[OnePlus Nord 2T] rokkdroid:
It's because you do not have the correct drivers for fastboot.

This video helped me
[OnePlus Nord 2T] bingchillin:
I tried this, still doesn't work.
[OnePlus Nord 2T] rokkdroid:
Try to find the correct drivers.

I want to Root my oneplus 2T please Help
[OnePlus Nord 2T] garylawwd:
Yes so follow the extensive guide I wrote on the first post.
[OnePlus Nord 2T] rokkdroid:
Just to avoid the chance of bricking the 2T:

-After an OTA, the (magisk) patched boot.img will be restored to the original boot.img

-Rebooting will boot the system using the new boot.img instead of the patched one and root will be gone

-To get back root, the procedure patching the boot image has to be done again after reboot

Is that correct?
[OnePlus Nord 2T] garylawwd:
That's correct. As long as the full 4gb+ ota is installed and not the smaller incremental update everything will be okay.

The device shouldn't let you install the smaller incremental update if you are rooted and download the full update which includes the new system.img boot.img and the many other .img's so patching of the new boot.img is needed for root again
[OnePlus Nord 2T] rokkdroid:
How do I distinguish the smaller and the 4gb+ ?
[OnePlus Nord 2T] garylawwd:
It will say it when going to update. Doesn't matter anyway it will only install the full ota so you shouldn't have to worry

Thanks 🥰
[OnePlus Nord 2T] egeres:
First of all, thanks to garylawwd for the effort in documenting this guide!! It's greatly appreciated ✨

I'm encountering a bunch of issues just at the beginning of the steps, more specifically, when I run:

My phone just shows a screen with small white text that says "[Fastboot Mode]", I assume this is normal but I haven't seen this on any youtube video or guide regarding this model (to exit this I need to hold power+volume up, information I haven't seen anywhere)

When I run "fastboot flashing unlock" I just see "< waiting for any device >" and running "fastboot devices" shows nothing

Going on my windows devices panel, I see there's an "android" device not being recognized with some driver error, which would explain the previou's commands behaviours. I had assumed if ADB was working then so should fastboot out of the box, like, they should have the same drivers (?)

Documentation-wise, dwelving into "driverland" has been worse than being burned alive with a propane blowtorch. I saw lost of out-of date posts, .zip's containing .exe's that get flagged on virus total, and absolutely no information about which driver versions do you need or if you have them working on your computer

Anyways, I went on https://developer.android.com/studio/run/win-usb because it looked like the cleanest option and installed the "google USB driver" via the android SDK tools (which I guess google though it was reeeeeally necessary to embed within a program that eats up most of your RAM), after restarting the computer I still get no devices when I run "fastboot devices"

Then I read this post (https://android.stackexchange.com/a/169608/372661) and apparently zadig can be used to install drivers....? Sooo I zadig showed my "android" device had "NONE" drivers, to which then I just clicked "install", and now my android device appears like this:

But how does zadig know what driver do I need for this?? At this point I'm not sure what's right and what's wrong...

Casually reading things online I came across some post which said that to enable "fastboot mode" on one plus devices you need to switch them off and then turn on while holding "power + vol up". This shows a minimal menu with english + chinese options, which works for me, but suddenly the "advanced" option to enable fastboot mode is missing?! Then I read online that you need to go into developer mode and enable "advanced boot" but this option just doesn't exist 🤷🏻‍♂️

I guess "adb reboot bootloader" is the only way to go into fastboot mode for me then...

Anyways, my versions of ADB and fastboot are: 34.0.1-9979309 and I'm running W10

I honestly don't know what crazy dark magic operate the people behind magisk and the rest of the tools, it seems to me (from a shallow experience) that the documentation about firmware is at best messy and confusing, but mostly inexistent. I'm aware part of the problem is that I'm not well educated yet on "android firmware stuff", but jesus, is such a mess at first...
[OnePlus Nord 2T] egeres:
I swear to god the setup driver for the fastboot has been one of the most cursed IT things I've done in my life. Anyways, I managed to fix it 🙂🔫

Small preface (short of optional) if your one plus device doesn't appear when you type in "fastboot devices" but you recall installing some drivers with zadig or whatever, no, scratch that, you shouldn't be seeing this:

Right click and uninstall whatever the hell is that, it messed my day

Then, the drivers you're about to install require 2 general steps

👉🏻 First, disable driver signing

👉🏻 Getting the driver, modifying it and installing it

​

Disable driver signing​

So, I've been trying out a few things, but for my W10 machine (didn't work in W11, but I didn't dig much deeper so maybe there's hope for you) the second option from this guide worked http://www.hackaapl.com/trouble-ins...ile-is-not-present-fix-toggle-driver-signing/

This would be:

Select the “Start” button.

Type “startup”.

Select “Change advanced startup settings“.

Select “Restart now” under the “Advanced startup” area.

Select “Troubleshoot“.

Select “Advanced Options“.

Select “Startup Options“.

Select “Restart“.

A menu will appear where you can press “7” on your keyboard to choose “Disable driver signing enforcement“.

(Yeah, kinda cursed, I was scared but it's actually not that hard to make it work 🙃)

Driver setup​

Honest to got I have no clue how people figure out these things in the first place, but kay, these are the steps I followed:

Go here: https://developer.android.com/studio/run/win-usb and download the zip file (easy)

After extracting, according to this comment: https://community.oneplus.com/thread/35156?parentCid=2941281 you need to do this (btw, I quote/copypaste because over time, links die, forums disappear, files are erased and entropy is increased):

Unzip the archive and modify the file android_winusb.inf adding the following lines under the sections [Google.NTx86] and [Google.NTamd64]

;OnePlus One
%SingleAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_05C6&PID_6765
%CompositeAdbInterface% = USB_Install, USB\VID_05C6&PID_6765&MI_01

​

3. Now you have to install this .inf, it's not a signed driver which will raise a bunch of red flags in your OS, but if you did the "disable driver signing step" you should be good. So, right click, update drivers, search locally, browse files, eventually reach a step which says "have drive", locate your .inf in your system, install, click the "yeah, this is dangerous" pop ups, and should be working​

​

Now running

fastboot devices

Shooould show your device!!

Anyways, huge thanks to absolutely all the people from XDA forums who have works so hard to give us control over our devices ❤❤❤

Hi, I want to unroot/relock bootloader.

I installed the latest update and it went fine, so I went to relock bootloader.

I tried "fastboot flashing lock", it showed the prompt that says that it would factory reset when relocking, and I chickened out.

Pushed volume down... but nothing happened.

fastboot reboot didn't work either.

And I am trying to reboot by pushing the power button 30sec, and it is not working!

Do I need to wait until it drains the battery?

Thanks.

OK, nevermind. I pushed all buttons at once, it rebooted to fastboot, and then "fastboot reboot" worked. But I think that it locked bootloader and factory reset... Anyway, better than the alternative.

Thanks.

Sorry for this question. I have only experience with rooting Samsung phones. This is my first try to root a new phone and a OnePlus. That's why nothing can go wrong!

How do I know which boot.img is the correct one? My Nord 2T has Android 13 and OxygenOS 13 and is a global version.

Edit: I found this (look screenshot) in the DevCheck-app. So the last boot.img is probably the correct one for me.
