Yes, this is the process to get Magisk root back after an OTA update. It keeps the deny list and modules. I believe this is the proper guide. I have also shared a script to automate the process here. It seems like things have changed since last time, and you can download boot.img and vbmeta.img images directly, instead of extracting them from the full ROM zip file. I would have to make some changes to the script.

Short version:

1. Complete OTA, reboot.

2. Download boot.img and vbmeta.img

3. Transfer boot.img, patch it, transfer it back to PC.

4. Reboot to bootlaoder. Flash both boot partitions:

fastboot flash boot_a magisk_patched.img
fastboot flash boot_b magisk_patched.img

5. Flash vbmeta:

fastboot flash vbmeta --disable-verity --disable-verification vbmeta.img

6. Reboot. Life is good!

Edit: People are saying there is an "Install on inactive partition after OTA" option in Magisk app, but I have not been able to find it. Maybe it is worth checking out.

This is what happens on my phone, I think it depends on the company's security policies :
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] lm089:
True, exists at least in my Magisk Manager app (V 25.2 stable). Be aware that this method only works if performed *after* completing OTA installation to the inactive slot but *before* first reboot:

Click the "install" link for Magisk itself:

Next click "install to inactive slot (after OTA)". Follow instructions, reboot and stay rooted
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] lalithesh:
I managed to get the teams working! Thanks to everyone who suggested steps to fix it.

If someone else is facing the same problem, here's how I fixed it:

Installed Magisk and enabled Zygisk. You'll find guides on Magisk website itself if you dont know how to.

Download and install the latest version of 'Universal SafetyNet Fix' magisk module by @kdrag0n

Add Teams app, 'Company Portal' and any such work related apps into DenyList.

Also add Google play store, Google play store, google play services, if you want, any other banking related apps to the denylist.

Enforce Denylist. DO NOT reboot at this point.

In magisk App settings, Hide the magisk app and give some random name to the new app( I gave it a common game app name).

TURN OFF THE WIFI AND DATA.

Clear storage of all the apps which you have added in deny list above. You have to turn off the data and wifi because even if you clear the storage, apps immediately download data if they have access to internet, hence the step 6.

Now reboot the system, turn on data, wifi after the reboot.

Confirm safetyNet integrity using YASNAC app.

Give a few minutes and then confirm the device certification in Play store settings>About section.

If the above 2 checks are pass, you can open teams and start using it.

Hope this helps!

Just a heads-up:

Today's update stuck at "100% preparing first boot" (or similar, last step before the prompt to reboot, IIRC).

After killing the updater from

Settings -> Apps

on each subsequent attempt the updater constantly crashed.

According to logcat

Today I experienced my bluetooth switching off without any user input for the second time in the last months. No big issue at all. It happened in the gym both times, might be because of the presence of many other bluetooth devices? I'll try and get a log next time it happens.

Thank you so much for creating and supporting the rom. Screen on time appears to be reduced drastically in Android 13 ! I used to get get 5 hours of screen on time ine oos10 on my oneplus 6. I used to charge my mobile once a day. Lineage OS 20, seems to be giving 3.5 hrs of screen on time. Is anybody else observing similar behaviour ?

I am getting 4 hours of Screen on time, with this build. Could you please check the time against "Screen" in Battery usage analyzer(i checked mine, from 100% to 1% of battery capacity). I saw some issues fixed in EvolutionX Rom, related to unusual battery usage. May be, we can also get it fixed in LOS, if the issue is not user specific

Hi all,just returned to this ROM from a different unofficial one. Did a full clean wipe and everything. Installation so fwar went smooth, as always.

Trying to install Magisk the official way fails, though:

downloaded lastest boot.img for this ROM, then from Magisk Manager ran the usual patch run, being told in the end the name and olcation of the patched file. The resulting file however has 0 bytes. Tried 3 time, always the same.

UPDATE: never mind, whatever that was, working now as expected
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Spaceoid:
Yeah, ofc I can do that! What exactly do you mean with 'Battery Usage Analyzer' - the battery settings of the system, or a certain app?

Until yesterday I was running my OP6 with an unofficial LOS20 ROM. A few weeks ago, after I had applied the January OTA I had realized that the screen of my phone no longer turned on if a phone call was coming in while the device is in standby mode. I was hoping that this behavior was somewhat related to some ROM specifics, and clean installing this ROM here would solve the problem. But had to realize that the same is happening with this ROM here.

This is really driving me nuts not having a clue who is calling until I answer the call using my volume rockers. There are only very few reports of this issue (like this one here: https://gitlab.com/LineageOS/issues/android/-/issues/5466).

And what's even stranger: notifications will wake up the screen, as well as other events like the alarm clock going off.

Question:

is anyone else facing a similar thing? And / or anyone having an idea what I could try next?

UPDATE: last night I once more tried to solve it, changed some settings in the display > lock screen > device controls area as well as display > tap to wake. Meanwhile everything is changed back to where it was before, but now incoming calls result in waking up the phone/screen. Probably one or more of the settings I touched had been in an undefined state, the only explanation I can think of...

[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Spaceoid:
Reading a little bit through the LOS reddit and the changelog, the new update seems to have contained a lot of changes to AOSP and UI, which might be the cause to the missing color feature.

[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] gamertag128:
I'm not missing the themed icons, but the option to change theme colours.

Edit: the next update should fix it 😃 on the change logs for the upcoming patch we can see that the LOS themepicker will be exchanged with the AOSP one. That's probably the reason why there was a conflict in code in first place, which resulted in this „bug".

I have upgraded my phone from LOS 19.1 to 20 without problems.

I noticed now that if I leave that phone to shut down the display by itself (I set 30 secs before it) it immediately turn on, wait 30 secs to turn off and again turn on....

Instead if I use the power button to turn off the display it remains off until I'll activate it.

I never esperience this issue with LOS 19.1.

Any suggests?

I remember having seen this once but can't confirm with current version; change list of yesterday's update mentions some Aperture changes so that might be solved now.

Hear hear, i was thinking the same. Do we have any advice which gcam version to use? When i selected it the last time I remember it took a while to find a version in which all features (like both cameras, panorama and slow motion) worked and when i reinstalled my device with los20 i forgot to make a backup of the version i used...

I'm currently using V 8.7.250 (A11 V14, to be exact), and I'm quite happy with it (https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/dev-bsg/). User @TheVoice70 is posting notices about updates on his own forum (beware: German language!) as well as in this thread; not sure whether the latter will be true in the future as that relates to an unofficial LOS ROM which apparently is no longer maintained
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] nikagl:
Does the front camera work for you? And slow motion video? They do not on my OP6 with LOS20 and the exact GCAM version you are using... I've used the snap cam version (the first in the V 8.7.520 A11 V14 download list...or are you using specific config's?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] lm089:
You're right, don't work for me either

Wasn't working on first attempt. Then I closed the app and reopened it. And after that front camera was working.

For slo-mo Video (1/4) I chose to turn off 4k, switched to fhd. Was working then, but video was showing weird stripy patterns like vertical shades. I'll try again tomorrow with daylight.

As to the version: I installed the *ENG* one, whatever that means. And there's only one Config available under that version, AFAIK. Called something like "balanced test"
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] nikagl:
Yeah, only version that seems to work for me is

MGC_8.1.101_A9_GV1zfix_MGC.apk

Regards,

Nika.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] lm089:
Alright, as promised:

did a slo-mo video (1/4 speed) at daylight, and that worked nicely. Well sort of: the playback starts in normal speed for a second or so, then jumps down to slo-mo. Not prefect. But no moving shades either

And front camera photos are working as well.

I remember having used V8.1.101_A9 with official LOS 19.1 for well over half a year, and was quite happy with it

[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] lm089:
I'm in no way an expert in regards to GCAM versions. I guess I'm just lucky that MGC_8.7.250_A11_V14 is working for me. I can only recommend to try the versions marked as stable and/or recommended (on this page try the entries in bold and red). Other than that I can only recommend to get in touch with the developers there
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] lm089:
As I wrote earlier: playback starts in normal speed then after ~1 second it continues in slo-mo. Quality is not very good, though. And the app crashes if I choose a higher resolution. Sorry that's all I can say about that
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Spaceoid:
While using my phone, I am used to pulling down the status bar with my right thumb from the top right corner (the area where usually network connection etc. are shown).

With the latest update from today, that no longer is possible. It is not a touch screen thing, I double-checked with a testing app.

Does anybody know the reason for this changes behaviour? I did not find anything in the changelog.

Again, no big issue, I was just wondering. Maybe there is a new setting I am missing.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] nikagl:
Isn't that the Quick Pulldown setting?
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Spaceoid:
I thought so, too, but that's not it.

Might also be a freshly arisen conflict between the ROM and my launcher (Nova 8.0.3).

If I activate the setting above, the quick settings open COMPLETELY once I pull the statusbar down. Still, pulling it down on the right side is kinda impossible most of the time right now.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] nikagl:
What about one-handed mode? I have too much customization on my device to know what causes it to work 🙈🤪
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Spaceoid:
That seems to be something different, too.

Might also be that I am mistaken, and nothing has changed. Still, it feels a little weird to me, as if the status bar was easier to pull down before.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] lm089:
Just completed the OTA: I (sort of) can confirm your observation. Pulling down status bar for me is working from anywhere with 2 exceptions:

- if I manage to hit the battery icon itself (in my case displayed as a circle) nothing happens

- same applies to the left corner if I hit the clock

1 mm to the left or right of these spots makes a difference.

My assumption is that there is a "conflict" between the pull gesture and tapping the clock / battery icons which brings up the related setting pages where the tap has precedence.

As I never tried that before I cannot say whether this is new or probably has been there for a while (my "natural" gesture is to pull just right from the notch).

Launcher in my case is SmartLauncher 6 which makes it different from yours.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] Spaceoid:
Yep, but that is exactly what I was talking about. Iirc, the status bar behaviour in those areas was different prior to the update. Thanks for reporting back!
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] gamertag128:
Patch notes for the upcoming update suggests a fix :)
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] lm089:
Sorry to bring up that "old" discussion, but yesterday I decided to experiment with the various 8.7.250_A11_V15 variants; GCAM documentation states the the "snap" variants are specifically designed to work with OnePlus devices, so I tried that - and failed: crashes all over the place. Probably the OP compatibility only applies for OOS driven devices but not for LOS.

I also tested the GoogleCamera_ENG variant which works OK-ish.

For me the best working variant still is the default MGC one, together with the "balanced" config file
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] nikagl:
Yes, importing the Balanced Config (OP66T-BSG8.7-Balanced-Test2.xml) works a lot better on MGC_8.7.250_A11_V15_ENG.apk. Slow motion works too, but only 1/8x... when 1/4x (default) it starts the recording but stops after a second. And true, the slowmo only starts after a few seconds but that is by design for all slowmo recordings. At the bottom of the slowmo you can adjust the sliders to start and stop the slowmo sooner or later. That way you can record a video as normal and only set slowmotion for the specific period you want it to be slow.

@lm089 I saw that you're using TWRP alongside Lineage OS 20. Is that correct? Are you using the newest version of TWRP (3.7)? Are you able to decrypt user data? (with password set or without?) Did you test restoring backups?

Sorry for the flurry of questions. I'm currently using LOS 19.1, with TWRP 3.6.2, Magisk and Xposed, so I feel much safer with an option to restore a full system backup. The only annoyance is that I need to remove password before each backup. I hope I can replicate that setup in LOS 20.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] lm089:
I used to but no more: I found that restoring backups no longer worked for, always led to bootloops and worse. So when I came back to this official LOS 20 3 weeks ago I decided to abandon Twrp, and so far haven't regretted it.

I used to run siddk's Twrp 3.7.0 flavour,and that often but not always managed to decrypt data. Unfortunately siddk stopped development earlier this year. That's why I decided to look for alternatives Backing up data. Using Seedvault now and am surprised how easy it was to restore my data

Funny story, I actually replaced my battery back in February! First, I tried going through OnePlus, which was a BIG MISTAKE

It took a month between creating a service request to actually getting my phone back. (I am in the US).

They ended up refusing to only replace the battery ($10 battery + $30 labor). They wanted me to also replace the mainboard for like $230 (wtf, there is nothing wrong with the mainboard). They've basically told me "Either you do what we suggest, or we just send you the phone back".

They ripped my fingerprint sensor cable going from the back cover to the mainboard. I had to order that from a somewhat sketchy Witrigs website and wait 2 weeks for it to ship from China. (It did show up and works great!)

I ended up just ordering a battery from iFixit (with an adhesive strip and some opening picks). Battery is great! Accubattery showed it was 3300 mah, as expected, after a couple of days of testing. Phone feels brand new. Going two days without charging is an option again.

I would definitely encourage going the DIY route. You'll need your wife's hair dryer and some patience :D I found that trying to remove the old adhesive with alcohol is a bad time. It turns into slimy goo which is even more difficult to get off. I suggest a lot of scraping with a plastic pick.
[OnePlus 6 ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Devel] gamertag128:
Also fixed it myself with an ifixit replacement battery and can confirm his experiences. Glueing the Backpanel without a gap was the hardest part (except opening the godd*** thing 😂). For a long time the biggest issue was getting a replacement from a reputable company so check regularly, if it is available in your area. Good luck :)
