Failed official upgrade to OxygenOS 9.0.0 / Android 9.0. - OnePlus 5T Questions & Answers

https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...ckup-upgrade-os-recover-t3887299#post78618623
As mentioned in the previous thread, I have rooted a brand new OnePlus 5T; I have TWRP and made a full backup, I am trying the official upgrade OS from OxygenOS 5.1.4 / Android 8.1.0. to OxygenOS 9.0.0 / Android 9.0.
The download takes about 1 hour. After the download completed, I try the upgrade, but upon reboot, TWRP came up instead of the system OS. When I did reboot the system, a message was displayed saying that the upgrade failed. I am trying the download a second time now.
How can I proceed with the upgrade to OxygenOS 9.0.0 / Android 9.0?

Official OTA Updates and TWRP
https://twrp.me/faq/officialota.html
Oh!
I'm not sure how to proceed now.

I think you have to update to latest Oreo 5.1.7/5.1.8 first before installing Pie. Latest Oreo Rom contains treble support&vendor partitioning needed for Pie update.
You should indeed update to latest Bluspark Twrp if you install Pie. With 9.83 you still have to delete the 'compatibility.zip' file from full Pie Rom zip. With 9.91 that is not needed anymore.
So Restore your Oreo backup, dirty flash to latest oreo, right after that flash latest Bluspark TWRP, then reboot to system, reboot to TWRP and dirty flash again to latest Pie Rom, again followed by BluTwrp. I always delete caches and system before dirty flashing, but others say that not needed.
Do uninstall Magisk modules and Magisk itself (flash latest uninstaller) before dirty flashing, asuming you are rooted via Magisk.
Good luck!

Can't update to newest ota.

I have a system update available, but whenever I try to flash it, it ends in an Error 7 in TWRP. The stock rom, I did a factory restore on it. But it was rooted with magisk, and phh superuser before I had to do the factory reset on it. Could it be some of the SuperSU stuff is left over and that is why it keeps throwing that error?
you've provided zero information about your current setup and what version you're updating from/to
you could be talking about OOS OTA updates or CM OTA updates or even a custom CM-based ROM OTA update for all we know.
Sorry, it is oxygen OS, version 3.2.4. I think it updating to version 3.2.5. I did a factory reset, and have not rooted or anything with the exception of flashing Twrp.
Flash patched TWRP via fastboot.
Tried to side load it, it still failed with error 7.
Edit: It looks like I am trying to go from 3.2.4, to 3.2.6. But still not sure what if stopping me from being able to install the update.

Oreo update for rooted OnePlus 5t

Pls help me updating my 5t to oreo.i am currently on version 4.7.6 with twrp recovery nd super su root.
After updating to Oreo I again want to root my phone
Pls share links to download compatibile ROM, recovery nd super su.zip
But you already have the OREO OOS ROM installed, why not use it? Flash the Oreo recovery from codeworkx through fastboot, make sure to follow the instructions so it sticks and then flash Magisk or any root solution of your choice. It's not hard if you do some searching.
Check in ROMs' threads and come back what your interested ROM is.
What I did was flash the ota to update me to Oreo. Then had to reflash Magisk and kernel.

If you have already installed a custom recovery and rooted your phone then you should be able to follow these instructions.
I can personally confirm that I was able to install the beta versions of Oreo and the final version of Oreo without any issues.
Here's what I did:
1. Download full .zip
2. Download Blu_Spark TWRP or Codeworkx TWRP (I personally used Blu_Spark but both should work).
3. Download Magisk 15.3 (I havent used SuperSu in a while so I can't confirm how well it works on Oreo but in my opinion Magisk is a better root method and it works in this version of android).
4. Make sure you have both ROM and Magisk on a easy to find place on your phone.
5. Boot to fastboot and fastboot flash the recovery you just downloaded.
6. Boot to recovery, wipe dalvik and cache and then install the ROM.
7. Once the installation is done, boot to system and wait till the system to finish updating. Once there you can go to settings > phone status and it should read (android version = 8.0.0 and OxygenOS version = 5.0.2, congrats, you're on the latest OxygenOS version for this phone).
8. Reboot to fastboot, and fastboot flash the custom recovery again.
9. Boot to recovery, wipe dalvik and cache again, and flash Magisk, wipe dalvik and cache once more and reboot to system.
10. Once the phone is booted up, you should be rooted with Magisk and on the latest OS.
9. Boot to recovery, wipe dalvik and cache again, and flash Magisk, wipe dalvik and cache once more and reboot to system.
10. Once the phone is booted up, you should be rooted with Magisk and on the latest OS.
NOTE: Since this is a big version update from Nougat, it's always recommended to do a clean flash although not necessary in most cases unless there are issues like big battery drain or when apps or the OS are not working properly. Also, if you are coming from a custom ROM and not the official OxygenOS, then you should definitely do a clean installation (even if said custom ROM is based on OxygenOS).

Wiping data and system partition which means you're wiping the entire OS and installing the new version on a clean partition. Think of it as formatting a hard drive and installing an OS instead of just upgrading your existing OS.
You obviously lose all apps installed,and it would be like when you first turned on your phone, however as long as you don't wipe internal storage, all your photos,music,etc are not wiped so you can use apps like titanium backup to restore all apps and data .
This method is recommended when switching from different custom ROM's and when upgrading from major version updates, like for example, going to Android 8 from Andorid 7.

I used that same version of TWRP back during the Oreo beta and it didn't work so I had to switch to blu_spark.

So i took the jump and flashed blu spark and the 5.0.3 full rom.
Yes i lost the recovery to stock, but that's ok. Just want to get OTA in the future and I don't need root at the moment.
So this is what i did (coming from 4.7.6, official twrp, magisk 15.3)
Make sure you have all the necessary files (eg. blu spark img file and the full ota file on your phone
boot the fastboot and "fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.2.1-x_blu_spark_v8.68-op5_op5t.img"
On the phone, choose and go to recovery
(now i'm on blu spark) Wipe Cache and Dalvik cache (i did this 2 times just to make sure)
Choose install and select the full ota rom file
Let it run and install the rom (took less than 5 mins)
Wipe Cache and Dalvik cache again (again, i wiped 2 times just to make sure)
Reboot
Make take a while (less than 10mins) for android to start and do the upgrade etc
Done
So far so good, i don't see any immediate problem. I will play a bit more and will post if I encounter any problem :good:
I have updated to 5.0.3 through system update app. where it downloaded full ota file and installed.Now I want to install twrp nd root my phone so pls confirm my steps
1 boot into fastboot mode and flash bluespark recovery
2 wipe delvik/cache from twrp recovery
3 flash magisk zip
4 again wipe delvik cache
5 reboot
are above steps correct?

Official TWRP will not be able to update with the OTA update, only with the full ROM zip. There seems to be some other recoveries capable of that but since I don't have any experience with them, I refrain from naming them.

Assuming that you are on 9.0.2 and want to update to 9.0.3, you wipe system, caches and data (excluding internal storage) and flash 9.0.3 full zip. Then boot back into recovery (without booting into system). You should boot into TWRP. If you do, flash Magisk and boot into system. If stock recovery over writes TWRP, flash TWRP image in bootloader (fastboot) and then Magisk and boot into system.
If you are on Oreo and want OOS 9, it is slightly more complicated. You will have to format data (take a backup of your files and transfer to PC/Laptop) and then boot back into recovery and then flash the ROM and do the steps above. This is because of encryption issues.

Yes I'm on 9.0.2 and want to update to 9.0.3
Is there any other way to do it without losing all the data?

Beware that there are some reports of the requirement of formatting again when updating from 9.0.2 to 9.0.3, though I did not face it. A backup is a must (on PC/Laptop, not on the phone itself).
I don't know of any other 'safe' way of doing it without data loss (assuming that by data, you mean internal storage).

You cant update with OTA updates, you need the full rom.
I dont know how you updated to (8.0 to 9.0 the first time),
i unrooted and reset my prone while still on 8.0
and then i updated to 9.0 with official recovery after that i installed twrp and rooted with magisk.
If you dit anything different you might run into problems.
1. Download and update to the latest magisk in TWRP. (If you already have it installed skip this, but still download it to a folder on your phone).
2. Download the full rom to your phone, full rom here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/rom-oxygen-os-9-0-3-android-pie-oneplus-t3937636.
3. Install the rom with twrp, no need to wipe anything.
4. Right after install the latest version of magisk.
5. Reboot your phone to system.
6. Wait until phone starts (it might take up to 7/10 minutes).
7. Done

MIUI 12 OTA Update In begonian LR TWRP 3.3.1.0.

I'm trying update from 12.0.1 to 12.0.5 with TWRP recovery.
"Package expects build fingerprintof redmi/begonian this device has begonia" This error is coming.
I Removed the fist line which checks this from updater script. still this error is coming.
The Questions I have .
1) Is is possible to do OTA update without loosing apps/data?
2) Can i Use the image from this link Here ?
3) If i can't do the above should i flash the full rom from Here ?? Is it possible to do this without loosing apps/data?
4) Is there any other recovery that supports flashing the OTA rom?
1) OTA won't erase your data
2) You should install the correct OTA distribution for your phone. If you have begonia then flash begonia. So does for begoniain. Unless you are flashing fastboot ROM, it will count as switching region and are totally fine with UBL. How do I know which device am I? Refer to about section in settings
3) Dirty flash for MIUI in mi flash with same region distribution is fine. Even downgrade from A10 to A9 is completely fine (but some apps may show weird behaviour, for this case, factory reset is recommended). I've done it many times (stable global to stable global).
4) It sure can but I wouldn't recommend. It will lead to bootloop. I will recommend to flash stock recovery and do the update via miflash pro with full recovery rom. I also recommend to completely remove magisk prior update. Carrying over your magisk+magisk hide+magisk settings+it's module is fine, but I recently discovered incompatibilities that leads bootloop when switching off magisk hide that carried over from previous update on 12.0.7.0 global. You can re-install everything after update

Question Installing miuimix a12 and magisk

I need some help flashing the latest weekly miuimix a12. I'm experienced and all, been flashing roms before I could walk haha. But this device is really cracking me up.
I've tried flashing the weekly android 12 miuimix through twrp. Twrp vasishath gives a couldn't recognize zip file and twrp nebrassy gives a twrp crash (back to homescreen twrp) upon swiping the rom installation. I think both twrps don't allow installing android 12 rom. So I unzipped the latest weekly, went to fastboot and run the installer bat. This installed the rom for me.
But I don't think the installation was correctly done, since miuimix comes with magisk on board and magisk wasn't installed.
I also can't manually install magisk. I installed the app, patched the boot, flashed boot a and b, even installed twrp and sideloaded magisk.zip but the magisk app is showing n/a.
What did I do wrong, the miuimix a12 flashing or the patched boot flashing. Does someone know how to install an android 12 rom? This device is giving me a headache...

I'm not sure if magisk already support a12. The creator of magisk was working on it, with a lot of change like the no more hide feature, but idk if it already out
I was on the a12 supported canary build of magisk, but i guess maybe its to much "canary".
Or is installing miuimix a12 like i did, causing some trouble? By not being able tot flash the zip through twrp and installing with fastboot.
I'm lost on rooting my F3 on A12 as well. I can't do it through TWRP. I can't do it through adb sideload either. Will patching a boot image (not sure which to use for a global F3) and installing through magisk manager work?
Thanks.
