The codes are

Fastboot boot patched_initi_boot.img

Or

Fastboot flash init_boot patched_init_boot.img
[OnePlus 11] scottlam1:
Hmm I tried to fastboot boot the patched init boot I downloaded it didn't like that command maybe I have outdated platform tools
[OnePlus 11] deechte:
What went wrong?
[OnePlus 11] scottlam1:
For me kernelsu img didn't boot rebooted sent me to recovery and then it booted fine on opposite slot I think not 100 percent sure but I was already on 24 when I tried to root
[OnePlus 11] g96818:
95% of the time, I end up in a boot loop. 100% way for me to root is to unroot, install, reboot without patching, and then regain root.
[OnePlus 11] m0han:
Did you copy+paste? I think there is a typo in the first quote above.
[OnePlus 11] g96818:
yes there's a typo, but he needs to use his file name. i only posted the generic command
[OnePlus 11] scottlam1:
That was someone else's comment I didn't use the typo
[OnePlus 11] jfsat:
Yes, I've done this for the OP11. I was freaking out for a bit though; it took a while to get the phone to take a password/PIN when the bootloader was unlocked, but when I came back to a locked bootloader, it wouldn't take a password in THAT state. I finally realized that if I unlock, DON'T give it a password, then lock again, it took a password.

So the solution might be the go to you undesired state, DON'T put in a password, and then your desired state will. Whole lot of good that knowledge will do me now. lol
[OnePlus 11] Xulon:
I misread instructions sorry for the post.

[OnePlus 11] cabagekiller:
Is there a way to get normal updates again if you rooted the wrong way? I did it via init_boot reflashed it and did it this way but still can't update.
[OnePlus 11] jeffsga88:
Unfortunately not sure. It should work if you restored everything to stock. Did you flash the patched init_boot to both slots when rooting? If so patch stock one to both slots as well. Other than that, probably only way will be when a full update releases.
[OnePlus 11] r1pp3d2:
man, i got mine today and already hit a snag. when i do fastboot flashing unlock it just brings up the help menu. i have CPH2451 on 11_A.06
[OnePlus 11] r1pp3d2:
nevermind, user error haha
[OnePlus 11] ChrisFeiveel84:
Fastboot driver installed ?
[OnePlus 11] r1pp3d2:
no i was using powershell and tried it using cmd line and it worked.

www.gizdev.com

for any paperweights, does this edl restore method work?
[OnePlus 11] jes0411:
Yes.

I set up the phone without any lock password nor pin.

Unlocked bootloader (only one time), rooted and then I set up my screen lock and fingerprints without problem and without need to lock and unlock several times.
[OnePlus 11] scottlam1:
I wouldn't think so but who knows it says it's for mediatek socs we have snapdragon so the processes may differ
[OnePlus 11] ummduh:
Very good to know. I already put my trade in 5 back to stock but was having issues with adb recogniting the device, so I couldn't relock it. I was about to send it back on stock but unlocked, now I'll make sure I get it relocked.

If they wipe the trade value, does it kill the $200 bonus for trading in? That would suck.
[OnePlus 11] jfsat:
Yes, they'll take away the $200 too.
[OnePlus 11] g96818:
They are stingy so if you don't lock it, they might not give your full refund.
[OnePlus 11] ummduh:
Got it all locked back up. Took a bunch of screwing around, been so long I completely forgot all the tricks.

I also took a full video of every aspect of the phone including boot and screen interactions.
[OnePlus 11] treetolber:
So I already have Magisk installed and have root, but I fail safetynet. I understand it's because of the boot.img. Do I need to uninstall magisk and go through the instructions in the OP to get root back with safetynet?
[OnePlus 11] g96818:
just do phase 4, steps 11 & 12.
[OnePlus 11] treetolber:
That worked, thanks! But the Netflix app still doesn't work. I tried that older version too and no work.
[OnePlus 11] g96818:
sorry, i can't help you with that.
[OnePlus 11] Philly@52:
I came here for the same thing. Did you get updated yet?

My last 3 or 4 updates on cph2451 have been fine using the "restore images --> install update(with installer) --> install to inactive slot" but I'm not too sure if it will go smooth from 13 to 14.
[OnePlus 11] Poloasis:
That's the $64 million question. Let's how this goes today when expert tries.
[OnePlus 11] aBikeLife:
This method lost root for me when updating 13 to 14.
[OnePlus 11] Poloasis:
Have you tried with KernelSU?
[OnePlus 11] aBikeLife:
Yes, no love.
[OnePlus 11] Poloasis:
So no way to root A14 on OP 2451 then.
[OnePlus 11] Philly@52:
I suspected there would be *some* issues but not entirely sure what. I also am not so sure I want to be on a14 just yet anyway.
[OnePlus 11] aBikeLife:
After fastboot boot ksu-boot.img the device reboots to recovery rather than system. Any thoughts?
[OnePlus 11] Keinta15:
I was able to keep root this way(installed using the "My Application2" installer), but everything seems glitchy and slow. I did removed all modules before updating just in case. I cleared data and cache and will leave it charging for a few hours to optimized the apps, if its still the same I'll just do a factory reset lol

Update: After charging the phone to 100% and leaving it there for a while everything went back to normal and there's no present lag, will keep a look out if anything changes.
[OnePlus 11] Philly@52:
I guess for now I will just try to stop the system notification from popping up and always bugging me. I can't remember how to freeze those system notifications.
[OnePlus 11] aBikeLife:
Okay, so this may not have been accurate. After following the OTA instructions in the OP the Magisk App 25210 debug was showing Magisk Installed N/A. However, after updating the App to Latest 26401 debug Magisk is showing properly installed. It seems the older Magisk App version was simply not properly displaying that root was in fact installed.

In brief:

1. Follow OTA instruction in OP

2. Update Magisk App to Latest version
[OnePlus 11] Philly@52:
Ah nice. So your on a14 running magisk 26.4 then? I'm actually already running Magisk 26.4 now just still hesitant to upgrade to A14.
[OnePlus 11] aBikeLife:
Yes. I'm running a14, Magisk root 25.2, Magisk App 26.4.

I previously had some issues with Magisk root 26.4, so not sure about upgrading again. What has your experience been?
[OnePlus 11] Philly@52:
I have not had any issues yet? I think I've been running 26.4 for a few weeks now? This where I'm sitting at right now.

Maybe later this weekend I will be brave enough to try updating to A14. I've been using the A13Localupdate.apk in conjunction with the Oxygen Updater to do all the updates. I'm not familiar with the MyApplication2 installer you mentioned unless it's essentially the same thing.
[OnePlus 11] aBikeLife:
Someone else mentioned MyApplication2. I'm using the same method as you.
[OnePlus 11] Philly@52:
Cool. Maybe i will try to update sometime this weekend then.

Did you get kind of a long first boot after the reboot? Where it kind of hangs on the OnePlus logo? That part always freaks me out a little bit as i worry that i've hit a bootloop but my last 3 or 4 updates have all been smooth luckily.
[OnePlus 11] aBikeLife:
Yes, there was a long first boot, then an "Optimizing Apps" notification, but nothing longer than expected.
[OnePlus 11] Poloasis:
Do you guys believed I should go ahead width the update from A13 to stable A14 on CPH2451, by Magisk remove all modules, reboot, Magisk restore boot image, no reboot, update A14 update, no reboot, apply root to image on other partition, reboot?
[OnePlus 11] Philly@52:
Im planning to just go for it. Im going to disable my Substratum mods (i dont really have many Magisk mods other than Substratum and some bootloop stuff). Then go on as usual.

Magisk: Uninstall --> Restore Images

LocalUpdater: Install Update (dont reboot)

Magisk: Install to inactive (dont reboot)

Go back and reboot with LocalUpdater
[OnePlus 11] Poloasis:
What would be the difference of rebooting with localupdater?
[OnePlus 11] Philly@52:
Some people have said if you reboot within Magisk it just doesnt work. I dont honestly know, all i do know is that its been working for me for each update so i dont wanna mess with it 😅
[OnePlus 11] H4X0R46:
Do report back if this worked, cause I'm going to pull the trigger too if yours worked 😁
[OnePlus 11] Keinta15:
So I find out the lag and slowness was actually because of the app Repainter. After uninstalling, everything is back to normal (after reading a couple of recent reviews, looks like the app is having problems with Android 14).
[OnePlus 11] Poloasis:
I just upgraded to A14 on 2451/US with regular Magisk patched OTA 2nd slot and it worked.
[OnePlus 11] Philly@52:
Can do. I'm pretty sure it's basically the same steps @Keinta15 followed
[OnePlus 11] Philly@52:
Nice. I dabbled a little with Repainter but I stuck to the Substratum mods I found
[OnePlus 11] H4X0R46:
WELP! I chose to unroot my device and update to OOS14, and that went smoothly.... Now I can't root OOS14.... dammit lol booting with kernelsu DOES NOT WORK, so my phone's unrooted now. Any ideas how to root the damn thing? LOL

EDIT: Couldn't I just patch an init_boot.img and FLASH that and be good? I'm always afraid to flash stuff to this phone.
[OnePlus 11] Reznor7:
I did the same stupid thing! Unfortunately, Magisk won't patch the boot.img or init_boot.img from the incremental update.
[OnePlus 11] H4X0R46:
Well, I got magisk app to patch a clean init_boot file.... But I'm afraid to flash it lol

I backed up a clean copy of my init_boot for OOS 14
[OnePlus 11] Reznor7:
Have you tried booting it via fastboot instead of flashing?

Mind sharing it so I can give it a try?
[OnePlus 11] H4X0R46:
I've read online that you should never boot an init_boot file. That made me just wanna listen and not break stuff 😅 So I'm not too sure there.
[OnePlus 11] H4X0R46:
Apparently flashing the init_boot is okay just not booting? If you're more daring than I, say the word and I'll send you my patched init_boot lol
[OnePlus 11] Reznor7:
I'm more than willing to try. :)
[OnePlus 11] H4X0R46:
Alrighty! I'll send you a clean stock one too just in case.
[OnePlus 11] H4X0R46:
I messaged you.
[OnePlus 11] Reznor7:
No luck. I get an error when trying to boot it: FAILED (remote: 'Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Bad Buffer Size')

I guess we wait for someone smarter than us to figure out a method!
[OnePlus 11] H4X0R46:
It fails to boot, but I wonder if flashing is safe 🤔 I'm not daring enough to try, I like this phone lol
[OnePlus 11] Reznor7:
I never like flashing over the stock boot. I prefer Magisk being able to back it up.
[OnePlus 11] H4X0R46:
Totally fair dude, cause same haha We'll wait and see if something surfaces soon! Having broken safety net because of an unlocked bootloader is lame.
[OnePlus 11] H4X0R46:
Did you just.... Root OOS 13 or 14? 👀
[OnePlus 11] lloydsw:
Well, I blew it. Updated last night & forgot to restore images before doing the local update. Now I have an unrooted phone for the first time in 12 years. Hopefully there's a fix soon!

Ironically, my Samsung tablet got 14 earlier this week. While I've always found it to be a PITA to have to use Odin to update, for the first time I can say it was actually an easier process.
[OnePlus 11] H4X0R46:
Yeah I'm in the same boat. I'm honestly surprised there's not an easier answer right now 👀
[OnePlus 11] Reznor7:
This fixed root for me!

[Android 14] Root with init_boot and still have Magisk Restore Images option

The purpose of this guide is to give you the Magisk Restore Images option. As many of you know KernelSu does not work for the OnePlus 11 with Android 14. When you use the init_boot method to root you lose the Magisk Restore Images option and...

xdaforums.com
[OnePlus 11] aBikeLife:
I followed the same steps as above BUT rebooted in Magisk. I don't believe where you initiate the reboot matters.
[OnePlus 11] shootind5nukes:
Init_boot method works fine. Have someone with root and the same version of the phone pull that file using the dd command. After that patch with magisk and flash via fast boot

NEVER "fastboot boot init_boot.ing"

YOU WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE

Only flash init_boot.
[OnePlus 11] shootind5nukes:
init_boot method works fine still.
[OnePlus 11] H4X0R46:
So in essence, this is saying to go ahead and use fastboot to flash a patched init boot to GET root, and then the guide is showing how to flash stock init_boot files back to the phone to be magisk patched in the app just so it also backs them up? Just wanna make sure I'm on the same page.
[OnePlus 11] shootind5nukes:
That guide will show you how to flash stock files back after you use init_boot method to root(fastboot). After you follow the guide magisk will have the restore images option to make taking an update easy again. Save the stock init_boot file you patch with, you'll need it in my guide.
[OnePlus 11] H4X0R46:
Alright! Gonna try this in a bit. Does Magisk 26.4 work or should a canary build be used?
[OnePlus 11] shootind5nukes:
Doesn't matter. What matters is that whichever version you are using you do Direct Install once you are done with it. This allows Magisk to make backups of the files it needs to Restore Images later. After you reboot it will be as if you used the KernelSU method.

After you use the dd commands in my guide you need to make sure you use the Direct Install option in Magisk.

My method is used to get the Restore Images option so you can Install to Inactive Slow(After OTA) but do not use that option after the dd commands. Only use that option after OTA.
[OnePlus 11] H4X0R46:
Dude you RULE! This worked for me! My phone is now rooted again and I have the restore images option in Magisk Manager! Thanks!!!
[OnePlus 11] Philly@52:
Hmmm - So i just tried to update with the ole trust "Restore Images --> Install Update --> Install to Inactive" and It went into a bootloop. It Starts "Optimizing Apps" and gets to about 45% then It just reboots. It did this about 4 or 5 times and finally booted. I would be lying if I said it didnt scare tf outta me for a minute.
[OnePlus 11] Philly@52:
Are you using anything else for now for theming? Im hoping Liv Dark updates fairly quickly. Majority of my previous theming components still work with A14 minus the status bar, notifications and QS tiles.
[OnePlus 11] appileh:
Wait i also lost root after update, so it is not possible to root ?
[OnePlus 11] deechte:
Why? Nothing has changed if you ask me.
[OnePlus 11] appileh:
When executing the following part: fastboot boot android13-x.xx.xx_20xx-xx-boot.img

A recovery menu is showing up.
[OnePlus 11] deechte:
Don't know about that method. I've always used the method of patching init_boot.img and flashing that.
[OnePlus 11] appileh:
Phase 4 is not actual. KernelSU is not working with Android 14.
[OnePlus 11] lloydsw:
If I remember correctly, I downloaded the boot image from a previous post in this thread, patched it & flashed it. (I've never gotten payload dumper to work). Then I followed this guide https://xdaforums.com/t/android-14-...ll-have-magisk-restore-images-option.4641667/ so I can do the normal process on the next update.
[OnePlus 11] skleveno:
I have the OnePlus 11 CPU 2451 running the October Update (cph_2451_13.1.0.596(ex01). Is this method still the best one to use and that works? Everything on the initial page/post? I just want to make sure there are no new quicker tools or anything like that or new changes inside the 32 pages that may be missed. Ty
[OnePlus 11] H4X0R46:
I just updated mine to the newest updated and even unrooted my phone FIRST so there wouldn't be any issues...... I have issues. The update installs but when it's supposed to say "restart now", it just says there was an error updating..... Any ideas guys? This is frustrating...

EDIT: I waited a while and then tried again and it worked! OnePlus REALLY REALLY needs to sort out these stupid bugs! Gonna root the device now.
[OnePlus 11] Chito307:
I also took a leap at rooting oxygen OS 14 and was able to update from 13 using the OP Ota method. I got the full update zip for oos14 in oxygen updater app. Fortunately, there is flash tool that can be used if you end up having a bootloop or brick since we can connect to the phone similar to msm tool for previous devices. You can follow the same guide I followed here

I am using magisk canary 65207f96 (26404) on oneplus 11 CPH2451
[OnePlus 11] Chito307:
Edit - pixelify module was the culprit for bootloop
[OnePlus 11] Reznor7:
I've lost root yet again after an update, and I've forgotten how I did it last time. Do you have a TLDR of how you rooted the latest version?

Edit: Never mind. Just got it!
[OnePlus 11] spicediablo:
Hi, may i know if the OP instructions still work for Oxygen OS 14? I just purchased a new phone and am currently preparing to unlock and root it.

My phone model is global CPH2449.

BTW, I just got my phone and am doing update. It is updating to CPH2449_13.1.0.596(EX01) version. After updated to OOS13, I tried updating again and now it's updating to 13.0.0.304

Update: I hit a snag, when i tried to boot the kernel that was downloaded from github android13-5.15.94_2023-05-boot.img.gz. Phone booted up but went into recovery? It prompted me to select language first which had 3 choices, traditional chinese, simplified chinese and english and after I selected english, there were only 3 choices available, format data, reboot and turn off. I guess kernel SU method is not working for OOS 14?

Thanks!
[OnePlus 11] appileh:
no KernelSU is not working on OOS14, you need to follow this

(easiest way tbh): droidwin .com/how-to-root-oneplus-11-via-magisk-patched-boot/
[OnePlus 11] spicediablo:
Thanks for the feedback! Yes, I found out the hard way, it just booted into recovery if I used kernel method. I managed to get mine rooted with magisk debug, however, banking apps are detecting root so I am trying to go to magisk delta(kitsune) which worked well in my previous phone.
[OnePlus 11] m0han:
Please post your results with Kitsune Mask here.

I see you've posted here: https://xdaforums.com/t/discussion-...official-mask-of-magisk.4460555/post-89317150

Is everything working well? Banking and payment apps too?
[OnePlus 11] spicediablo:
Currently, I have just restored all my apps with kitsune mask. However, some apps refused to work, as in the app immediately closes after launch. I wonder if it was because I restored them using titanium backup because from playstore, i saw that specific app installed but the phone model was my old phone, not my new phone. Not sure if this is the reason for the immediate fc after launch...

My installation steps were taken from here. Instead of using his magisk link, i used magisk delta link and did exactly as mentioned. The method I used is

payload dumper #2
[OnePlus 11] m0han:
Are your banking and payment apps among them?
[OnePlus 11] spicediablo:
Yes, it looks like it is detecting root....
[OnePlus 11] spicediablo:
Update again, found that it has nothing to do with root but it was caused by titanium backup not supporting split apk and when I restored using titanium backup, even apps not checking for root are still not working. Restored with neobackup and all were fine. Hope this information can help others here. Starting from Android 13, split apks are being used so titanium backup cannot handle it and we have to use neobackup.
[OnePlus 11] cabagekiller:
anyone able to side load the newest OTA update for the NA model? I download the zip from oxygen updater but when I do local update, it says extraction failed.
[OnePlus 11] david3140:
Have you had any luck? I am in a similar situation with the CPH2451 NA model with stock OOS. No mater what I've tried - such as unrooting by restoring images in Magisk followed by trying to install the January update, I still get a failure when trying to download and update. I've tried it using a couple of different updaters linked in the Oxygen Updater app.
[OnePlus 11] shootind5nukes:
I've been there. I had to factory reset to make it work. I tried for weeks. Tried everything I know. Extraction failed at the same spot each time. When I say I tried everything you can take that to the bank. I think if I had it to do over again I would reflash, using payload(current version you're on) , all the partitions that aren't user data and see if it would work then.
[OnePlus 11] david3140:
I might try that, but not sure I want to mess with it. I had a similar problem with the December update and I think you were the same one that suggested throwing in the towel with a factory reset, which is what I did and got it working. Having to factory reset to take any update is too big of a PITA. I think I might just flash crDroid and deal with the camera and other custom rom problems or just buy a Pixel and call it a day. 🤷‍♂️
[OnePlus 11] shootind5nukes:
I will say every update after that has worked as expected.
[OnePlus 11] cabagekiller:
I have not had luck. I am just waiting for the next update to try it again.
[OnePlus 11] david3140:
Thanks. I've given up on stock OOS for now. Too many issues with updates for my liking. So, I flashed crDroid last night. Satisfied so far. Battery life seems to be as good as stock. My only problem with crDroid is the loss of the Oxygen camera. But for now, I'll deal with it or install a Google cam mod. Have been reading that there have been dev attempts to mod OOS camera for custom roms.

I did install Neo backup and did a full backup of all my apps before flashing crDroid. First time user with that Neo. It does a great job in backing up and restoring apps and their data. This will make it easier if I decide to go back to stock OOS and have to reset every update.
[OnePlus 11] p3ric0:
Rooted OTA update from A13 to 14 worked great.

Magisk gave me a "Stock backup does not exist" error when I tapped Restore Images, and I didn't have a backup, so i had to scour the internet for the original boot img for my a13 version number. Luckily found a payload containing an init_boot with a matching sha1 on a russian site, restored the magisk stock backup, and followed the instructions OP left. No issues.

Disabled all mods (including lsposed mods) before updating; unsure if necessary but just in case.

[OnePlus 11] azsl1326:
The kernel su method doesn't work on Android 14. I lost root yesterday when updating to the latest OTA - forgot I had updated and rebooted before restoring images. I have tried using payload dumper on android, mac os, and windows and all error out and don't complete the process extracting the payload.bin. Some don't even get that far (android). I am running CP2451 (NA) _14.0.0.501 with Feb's security patch. Would someone be so kind as to either provide an extracted boot.img file (or patched) or provide suggestions on another route to go as I am out of ideas.

Thanks, in advance.
[OnePlus 11] Jamesmac34980:
Could anyone here please assist? I followed the instructions 'to a t', I downloaded the img.gz file corresponding to my reported kernel version in kernelsu, extracted the .img and used adb to reboot into bootloader. Then a fastboot boot image.img, my OnePlus 11 reboots but when I open kernelsu to give super privs it just shows 'not installed'. Does anyone here know a solution? I also tried patching a boot img with magisk and booting that but no luck. Any ideas? Thanks in advance, and thanks to those whoake these amazing tools.
[OnePlus 11] Jamesmac34980:
I am also on A14. Perhaps that's the issue?
[OnePlus 11] bynarie:
I will help you because I know how it feels to be left in the cold with no help.. Can you DM me? I need to know exactly what firmware you are on.
[OnePlus 11] bynarie:
Yes, I will provide images.. You need 14.0.0.501 init_boot correct?
[OnePlus 11] azsl1326:
Great, thanks! Yes that's correct for CPH2451 (North America)
[OnePlus 11] bynarie:
Do you need the stock init_boot? I do not have a stock one.
