Nope but you have Odin.Just flash through odin

Dear Muhamet!
But dont I loose root when updating via Odin? So if I update via Odin, do I need to flash TWRP and magisk again to gain root?
Are all my OS settings and app settings gone?
Please let me know, thx!

Root without custom recovery?

Is it possible to unlock the bootloader and flash via adb magisk in order to root the phone but still able to mentain the oem recovery so i can flash the updates that are coming more easily?
if u r rooted u cannot flash OTA's, so no u can't
Yes it's possible, however when you install the update you will lose root and have to root it all over again.

I'm new to Oneplus, but Flashfire has worked for me when twrp cannot be installed.

The process will only be to flash magisk via fastboot, right ?

You don't use adb... Patch the boot image with the Magisk Manager and then flash it with fastboot. There are instructions for it in the Magisk release thread.
When updating the OS you'll have to do it again.
In my opinion, the only reason to do it this way is if you've got limited bandwidth and can't download the full OTA zips. Using the full zip is way, way easier... Just download the full OTA file, flash in TWRP and then flash the Magisk zip right after. Done. You don't need a computer at all...

Question on losing root after OTA

So op 5t released a new update, whenever i open the update screen it says root detected, i would lose my root privileges if I update the phone.
I wanted to know whether i would only lose my root, or entire thing of bootloader getting locked etc?
After updating will I be able to just boot into recovery and flash root file? Or whole process I would have to do again
Thanks
Updates reinstall the stock recovery. You have to flash twrp then root.

When you install an OTA it will NOT relock your bootloader, it will reinstall the stock recovery since that is included in the OTA zip and is forced installed to be sure the update installs correctly.
You will lose the root temporarily until you flash a custom recovery again and your root of choice.

Wait, really? https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/blob/master/docs/tips.md#ota-installation-tips doesn't say anything about having to flash twrp again...
When an OTA is available, please go to Magisk Manager → Uninstall → Restore Images. Do not reboot immediately or you will have Magisk uninstalled. This will restore your boot (or dtbo if available) back to 100% untouched stock images in order to pass verifications. This step is required before doing any of the following steps written below!

Or does "100% stock images" mean the stock bootloader = flash twrp again?
Just to clearify, updating my phone by an OTA does not lock the bootloader but I'd have to flash twrp and magisk again..?

yee, but after you have used the OTA you will need to flash twrp again since the OTA flashes the stock recovery, or modify your boot image but that is a pain in the ass. :silly:

Means if I'd like to unroot my phone by doing nothing, this is probably the easiest way?

updates un-root my phone?

I rooted my phone and I get an update from OTA.
But it says your phone will be un-rooted.
Why does this happened? Is that normal or there is a way to update my phone without un-rooted?
Just download the update and download superuser zip
http://www.supersu.com/download
Now flash the update in twrp and after that flash superuser so root will stay

Magisk is OK just flash it right after the update
download full zip,
flash it and then flash Magisk without rebooting.
you'll lose root and custom recovery otherwise.

How can i remove twrp and install the stock recovery?

Hey, so I installed twrp and root aswell, and i've done what i wanted and now I feel confortable with unnistalling root and twrp. I have already unnistaled the root and want to unnistal twrp t be able to install OTA updates, considering that oreo is out on Motorola phones. Can anyone help? I also am kind of a newbie on android costumization btw.

Flash only recovery.img from stock ROM using command code: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
it will not work, your mobile will do a bootloop, you have to reflash the complete firmware.

It should work if
you have disabled dm-verity
This can be done either with a zip file which disables it or by flashing magisk
but obviously you will not be able to flash any ota - you will need to flash stock firmware and it is recommended to lock the bootloader just to make sure everything is back to stock

Firmware Update

I root my MI 10T Pro with TWRP and Magisk. Now i see there is a Firmware-Update. Anywhere know how can i do the Update without lost root?
You can't. You have to uninstall magisk completely, perform update (if you have TWRP installed it might fail), and after that reinstall magisk and modules
OK. Thank you. The Bootloader is after the Update closed? And when its fail because TWRP what can i do?
No, bootloader stays unlocked, you just boot twrp after and reinstall magisk.
If it fails because of twrp you can do 2 things:
1. restore stock recovery and redo installation
2. download full rom from internet and apply through fastboot.
In any case you'd have to reinstall magisk after...
OK. Thank you. I understand right? When i go back to Stock the Bootloader is open but root is away? So i can root the other one Method without TWRP?

Yeah. Basically whole boot partition gets overwritten and magisk goes away with stock update, you only have to reinstall it...
