hello everyone, hope you all have a nice day...
i'm no on NON-ROOTED stock OxygenOS 3.5.2, yesterday OTA update to 3.5.3 appeared on my phone and i downloaded it, i have TWRP recovery, then in rebooted to TWRP to install the update, after thtat, phone reboots again and said Update failed, if i go to system update now,it wants to download a 1.3GB file instead of former 80mb file! can i update using the 80mb OTA file instead of downloading a 1.3gb file ?
OTA wont work with TWRP Recovery. You need to revert back to stock recovery to use OTA.
And If you use full ROM ZIP, it will break your TWRP recovery.

It worked for me with TWRP. But I did something different. If you turn on "show hidden files" in any supported File Manager you'd notice a folder named ".OnePLusH2Ota" that's where the downloaded update files are stored as a zip. So all you have to do is download the update file and Move it to the Root directory from the update folder. Then boot into TWRP and flash the zip and it will work.. Hope that helped
**REMEMBER THE TWRP I USED WAS NOT THE OFFICIAL TWRP. IT WAS A CUSTOM VERSION OF TWRP**

I was able to download and then flash the update .zip with the modified TWRP, didn't break that version of TWRP.

Well, probably its a problem with your boot.img partition. Extract boot.img from stock rom zip, then flash it via fastboot flash boot boot.img and then, flash orginal recovery same as boot. Then, finally, flash via recovery STOCK ROM. Probably now it will be fine.
If not, try flash TWRP and make FULL WIPE included system partition and repeat upper steps.
Cheers.
In twrp goto wipe and do normal wipe remember don't do advance wipe otherwise it'll format internal storage as well so avoid advance wipe only do normal wipe then install full 3.2.7 zip and super su. zip

before you flash 3.2.7 mount system read-only. you can do this under "mount"
it is a known bug with twrp and oxygenos
You can download the stock boot logo from here: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=529152257862664522

if you are on stock recovery you cant change the mounts.
flash twrp to flash bootlogo and oxygenos 3.2.7
otherwhise you have to install via sideload but this is very slow and you cant flash stock bootlogo
so flash twrp and then mount system read-only and then flash oxygenos 3.2.7 and after or before this you can flash the stock bootlogo

Hello,
I have a question about the now oos 3.2.8 update for the one plus 3. A few rooted users reported that they recive the full zip file (1.3 gb) as ota.
In theory it would be great to get this as root user so you can just go and flash it with twrp. But I never heard anything like that before so how are you supposed to install it and where is the file on the device in order to flash it with twrp?
Basically what happens is you'll get the ota notification for the delta zip. You try and install that and it'll of course fail to install then it'll boot back up and tell you "root detected downloading full zip" or something along those lines and then it'll download the whole zip and it'll install fine you'll lose root and TWRP may or may not be overwritten I've had it happen sometimes but not all the time.
you install it by just hitting the install button on the system update ui and it'll run openrecoveryscript to make twrp or the stock recovery flash it.
Hey all, recently did a system update on my OnePlus 3. When I rebooted it, it launched the TWRP recovery. I have no idea what it's for but it won't let me boot back to android (system).
I tried everything, but I can't.. Any advice?

Did you update an OTA while having twrp as your recovery?
If yes, this is the cause of the soft brick.
You should update only full zips in twrp.
OTA are to be updated only if you have stock recovery.
To get back to your system, download the "full zip" of whichever version catches your fancy, transfer to your mobile and install from twrp.

Hi, version of what exactly? New OTA? Because I did quite a few things.. Back up, factory reset, and yes I also updated an OTA.. You think that's the mistake I did?
You need the file with the FULL system, not the lil 150 MB update zip. We talk about the 1+ GB variant. If you do otherwise you will have that loop you can oonly break by flashing the official recovery as fix. Then it will boot fine after once booting into recovery.

I assume you have TWRP installed.
You would have had a OOS rom installed which had got updated over the air from an older version to newer version.
The update would have gone smoothly if you were on stock recovery.
Having TWRP has broken the update cycle and hence your phone has been soft bricked. So yes, updating OTA with TWRP caused the problem.
To clear this, you need to download the full version zip . OTA zips will be small (350mb, 90mb etc.). Full version zips will be bigger in size (1.1gb, 1.2 gb etc.). Version here refers to the OOS version (the latest is 4.1)
Once you have the full version zip , you can reflash stock recovery and from stock recovery you can flash the full version zip to get stock OOS.
If you want to have a custom rom installed, you can install the custom rom and gapps if required from TWRP itself.

Try to install full OOS 4.1 zip from TWRP as you are getting access to TWRP. For transferring file you can use ADB or just use a pendrive with OTG cable & TWRP will detect it & then you can flash the full zip from Pen drive.
Hello.
How to flash manually new available zip OTA firmware update ?
I have 12.5.1.0 RHKEUXM
And now is available new version 12.5.3.0 RKHEUXM (zip file)
How do I flash manually a new OTA zip version with a size of about 355MB via twrp recovery or another way ?
I tried it, but in twrp recovery I got an error with some A / B partition switching.
(Screenshot in next post)
Simplified: How to install the update when I have TWRP recoveryrecovrecovery and Magisk Root?
Can you please help? Thank you.
You cannot update with TWRP unless the twrp supports it.
It would say MIUI OTA support where you downloaded it.
So how do I install it? I have the OTA update downloaded in the downloads in the repository.
So how do I install the OTA update?
When I install the zip via twrp recovery, this pops up:
No one can advise? Please.
You don't.
OTA is automatically installed by the system

see here if you don't have the option to select update manually, tap on the miui 12 icon in 'about' several times to enable more options (going from memory, so can't be sure, but i think that's right)
I selected the downloaded zip manually and started updating.
MIUI update failed!
Where is the problem?
I note that I have TWRP recovery, Magisk root, unlocked bootloader.

That only works with stock recovery.
Try installing the stock recovery by manually flashing the recovery.img from the fastboot rom of the miui version you are currently running.
After downloading the fastboot ROM current to your muui version extract it and flash recovery.img
Then do the OTA update.
Then reflash twrp.
Thank you. And any procedure and links to download and install stock recovery?
Um just download your stock rom?
Same place where you manually downloaded the ota, there would be a fastboot recovery ROM too.

Do you mean zip rom?
If u wanna use TWRP, u have to download recovery ROM for 12.5.3.0 (the one over 2,9 Gb), not the OTA (incremental) one.

Do you mean the whole ROM with a size of about 3 GB zip file?
And after the flash, will I be left with the system and application settings as before the flash of this new ROM version?
Or will I have to set everything again?
Ur settings and apps will be kept....after flash rom, just delete dalvick and reboot to system. if u have magisk, u'll have to flash it again....most probably

Okay. So what do you think is easier? Flash the whole ROM via TWRP recovery, or back to stock recovery and flash only OTA update zip (355 MB) manually and back flash TWRP recovery?
If u have TWRP flashed, my way is easier in my opinion....but is ur choice after all.

Yes this method works.
Flashing it would upgrade it.
Problem with MIUI OTA the zip is encrypted so. Only some forks of TWRP like pitch black, orangefox etc have MIUI OTA support.
Hi there!! Is it possible to root the Poco F3, keeping stock MIUI and still get OTA updates, without any problem (no data loss, no app auth removal, etc)
With rooted stock rom, you still get OTA updates. The smaller incremental OTA update will refuse to install, and the phone will download the full rom instead. Once the full update installed, you will have to apply root again (eg. flash the patched boot.img from the new update).

In case you're using Magisk, would you flash the OTA update and magisk in TWRP?
What about internal data, and 2FA or banking apps? Do I need to re-authorize everything after OTA update?
I found this video
which shows that you could OTA update by "disabling magisk" for a moment. Is this procedure good?
As said, I let the phone update itself automatically. Since the smaller incremental update will not work, the phone will ask to download the bigger (±3 GB) updater. Once downloaded, it will overwrite the previously patched (rooted) boot.img.
So, when the update has finished and the phone has rebooted, you won't have root access anymore. In order to restore root access, you will have to flash a new patched boot.img.
There are different ways. I always use fastboot on my Mac. On a mac or pc, download the fastboot or recovery file of the new update that was just installed. Extract boot.img from that file. Send the file to the phone and patch it with Magisk. Send the patched boot.img back to the mac or pc and flash it to the phone (both a and b partitions) with fastboot.
Yeah, the only problem really is that, the boot-partition gets replaced with an update. So with every update you have to re-flash the patched boot.img
Magisk can patch TWRP Backups too, you can then restore the patched Boot-partition in TWRP!
So this is what I do to get Root again after an Update:
1. Boot into Fastboot Mode
2. Boot into TWRP SKKK
3. Backup Boot-partition
4. Boot Android
5. Open Magisk & patch /sdcard/TWRP/Backups/boot.emmc.win
6. Rename /Downloads/magisk_patched_xxx.img to "boot.emmc.win"
7. Move (and replace, when asked) to /sdcard/TWRP/Backups/boot.emmc.win
8. Boot TWRP SKKK and restore patched Boot

Yup my instructions are for updates!
Unfortunately there is no "automatic way" to regain Root after an Update, at least AFAIK.
If you mean you want the small incremental updates to work, I'm not sure due to the altered Boot-partition. Might be best to use the Full Updates. ^^
You could also just flash Magisk.apk in TWRP or OrangeFox because it's also a Flashable ZIP-file, instead of manually having to patch Boot-partition.
I personally haven't done that in a long while, and the official FAQ-page of Magisk says, that that method is outdated and unsupported now, but apparently still works!
I forgot to mention OrangeFox in my previous post, but seems like a newer, better Custom Recovery than TWRP. You can also use that instead of TWRP. But make sure to use the latest Beta instead of Stable from the official Website because only the Beta can view /data (Android 12 Encryption Support). Stable TWRP also doesn't yet support A12 Encryption, only TWRP SKKK (Beta-version).

Yes but make sure to use a Full OTA zip, not an incremental update zip. (the ZIP files in range of ~1-3 GB, not the ~300 MB incremental update-files)

Probably none. There is no point in trying to do that.
If you say so, I'll believe it. Thank you very much! I don't even bother with it anymore.
my way is to backup stock boot vendor_boot dtbo from twrp before flashing twrp and whenever i want to ota update i restore the backup and reboot
magisk will be gone
twrp will be gone
i start the ota update, it'll flash the small incremental update instead of using the entire 3gb rom
