No matter what I try I am unable to root my P2XL on Android 10......
The process I am taking is to boot up twrp and flash the latest Magisk zip, however it fails right at the end with the error failed to mound system and vendor.....
I have just tried to do it again but with a clean install of the October update but nothing has changed.......
the October update wasn't without issue either as that too failed and I had to factory reset the September image and update OTA.....
anyway, any thoughts or advice on how to achieve it or what might be wrong.......
is there specific TWRP versions I need to boot from etc,,,,
Don't bother with twrp
Just use magisk.
Download the factory pixel image on your PC , unzip the boot.img file and transfer to your phone.
Open magisk manager and install magisk by patching the boot.img file U just transferred.
Copy that new patched boot img back to your PC.
Use ADB to ADB reboot bootloader
Type: fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
That's it

Since it has been a few months since I messed with my 2 XL, I followed the upgrade 9x guide in my sig to make sure I didn't forget/skip anything.
I just jumped to 10 last night, root, twrp, and cust kernel.
fastboot latest factory image (I left the -w intact for a clean wipe since going form 9 to 10-but have read it is not necessary)
booted back into bootloader and fastboot boot twrp 3.3.3-0.img
once in twrp I install 3.3.3-0
in twrp installed latest EX kernel for 10
rebooted to system
let it boot up fully for a few minutes
booted into twrp
flashed magisk 19.4
rebooted to trwp (superstition for me)
rebooted to system
checked magisk hide in magisk manager
hit systemless hosts in magisk manager
rebooted
Fresh install of android 10, rooted, with cust kernel.
You mentioned the "failed" notice. I've read several places that TWRP will throw the "failed to mount" warning (or something like that) but that it is a false flag. I got this as well and just continued on.
There may be many diff ways to accomplish this, but THIS method worked for me.

I used a similar method:
I used Duece's Script to flash and format data with April image ( I wanted to able to decrypt with pattern lock); rebooted to system; then rebooted back into bootloader and used Duece's Script to flash but not format data with October image; booted back into bootloader and fastboot boot twrp 3.3.0-0.img; in twrp, flashed 3.3.0-0 zip, rebooted to system, and did initial phone set up; rebooted to twrp, flashed caesium kernel and magisk 19.3 and rebooted to system. Everything worked fine. I did get failed to mount" warning in twrp but both the kerkel and magisk worked fine.

Hi, by "checked magisk hide", do you mean that you were able to bypass google's safetynet?
I havn't rooted my P2 XL on A10 since i wasn't sure i will be able to bypass safetynet!

My safety net passes in magisk, but I don't use any apps that I can verify that with.

I DL magisk hide module and use it for two apps, one for comcast business and the other which regulates my home thermostat.
Wow, thanks guys.....you have all laid out pretty well your processes which I will go through later on....
It's strange, as everything is installed and magisk believes it working it just doesn't pass thee root check..
I'll get back to you with my progress...??

I updated TWRP in TWRP via zip flashing and now whenever I try to reboot my phone, it only boots back into TWRP.
Previously, I was unlocked bootloader and rooted on stock.
Would appreciate any help. Thanks
I've never installed TWRP on this phone, but here is one thread Google returns that seems to be similar.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-xl/how-to/twrp-bootloop-flashing-twrp-t3533765
One relevant thing that has changed since the time of that discussion is that the May and newer bootloaders require a signed boot image. When I installed the May update with SuperSU without signing the boot image my phone simply ended up switching to the other slot, but again I didn't have TWRP installed. There is a zip for signing the boot image and further discussion here.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...signing-boot-images-android-verified-t3600606
Thanks for the response. Looks like I have to flash factory image and then the verified boot signer. I'll give it a shot and report back.
Fixed this rather easily using the June factory images. Flashed using flash-all.bat (and removed the -w) and things are updated and back to square one. Interestingly, I didn't need to sign the boot image.
Thanks for the help.

Do you need to use the signed boot image file if you are flashing an unrooted custom Rom? I thought you needed to use it when flashing anything that changed the boot image from stock, including flashing TWRP if it's going to be installed on the phone.
Actually now that I thought about it the signed boot image is SuperSu specific, isn't it?
Click to expand...

My understanding is that at the last step before restarting the phone the boot image needs to be signed, if the bootloader has been updated to May or later. The stock image is signed, and I've read that ElementalX will also sign the boot image. If you install anything else at this time, such as TWRP or SuperSU or Magisk, then I think as the last step it's necessary to also sign the image. Now that you've updated the bootloader, my understanding is that you will need to sign the boot image if you install TWRP again.

So, I just ran into this issue with my Pixel 2 XL when I tried to update my TWRP version from 3.2.1-2 to 3.2.3-0. Here's how it went:
1. Downloaded the TWRP zip, md5 and so on from the official TWRP website for the Pixel 2 XL
2. Booted to TWRP and installed / flashed the zip of TWRP 3.2.3-0
3. Wiped dalvik and then chose Reboot to System from TWRP -- the phone booted right back into TWRP
4. Tried again to reboot the same way. Same result.
5. Installed / Flashed the 3.2.1-2 TWRP zip which was still on my phone, in order to revert to the previous version, and then Rebooted to System -- same result
6. Flashed 3.2.3-0 zip again, then flashed the Flash Kernel that I've been using, and then Flashed the Magisk v16.0 zip that I used to root, then chose Reboot to System -- AND IT WORKED; the phone booted normally and now I'm updated to the latest TWRP successfully.
tl;dr - The solution is to flash Magisk again after updating TWRP. Pretty sure this goes for kernel updates too.

Hey,
I tried to root my Pixel C with Android 8, but TWRP don't work.
1. it always say "Can't start sideload"
2. after trying to boot from recovery to system again, boot loop or always starts to recovery
So Android 8 works, but I'm not able to root the device..
I never had this problems on Android 7
Can someone help?
Has someone the same problems?
figured it out by myself.
It worked with the [UNOFFICIAL] TWRP 3.0.0-0 for the Pixel C
Befor I used the newer Official.

well, that's an interesting note. would have never guessed that. thanks for the information.
Unofficial TWRP can be flashed and loaded, however, cannot decrypted data partition.
After restart, the device always boots into recovery but never back to system.
Does anyone have TWRP really work on An 8?
The latest TWRP is working for me on 8. I used the 3.1.1 from the AOSP thread. I now have Android 8 rooted with Magisk. Works great. I did have a problem with using the AOSP image that was posted. I kept getting a boot loop, followed by a boot into TWRP. I finally downloaded the factory image and manually flashed the system, vendor, bootloader, and boot images. I then booted into TWRP and flashed Magisk. The system started just fine, but would lock up after a bit. I wiped the data partition in TWRP (preserving media though), and now all seems to be fine. I had to reinstall my apps of course, but at least it works. Battery life is great on Oreo.

I have the April OS for the Pixel C and am using the correct boot.img but, still patched will not boot .
.
I don't have TWRP installed because it causes the April Pixel C OS to reboot to recovery only, so I had to revert back to stock recovery.
TWRP used to work but not now with April OS. .
.
I installed the latest Magisk MGR [MagiskManager-v5.6.4.apk].
I downloaded the latest Msgisk.zip [Magisk-v16.0.zip].
I extracted the April OS boot.img file and placed on the Pixel C.
I used MagiskManager to patch the April boot image.
I copied the patched_boot.img file to my PC.
I booted the Pixel C into fastboot and flashed [fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img].
Pixel C will boot only to the Black Google Logo.
I flashed back [fastboot flash boot boot.img] and Pixel C will boot up fine.
Seems neither TWRP nor Magisk work on the April OS build. .
I uninstalled MagiskManager-v5.6.4.apk.
I installed the older MagiskManager-v5.5.apk.
When opened, the old MagiskManager will only let me upgrade to the new?
Thus, can't even try the old MagiskManager and, the old magisk.zip file?

android pie + root = corrupted?
I have been on DP4 for a while now and just did P OTA sideload and went to flash magisk. upon rebooting it looped and went into a recovery mode stating that the android system was corrupted..
Went ahead and formatted, attempted to flash the factory image and got an error stating that fastboot could not create an image for user data..
the version of twrp im running is 3.2.1-2 and magisk 16.7.
After running deuces bootloop recovery, resetting the data after the first boot im able to get the phone back up but i cant get magisk to work without it corrupting the damn thing. any thoughts?

Twrp 3.2.2, magisk uninstaller and magisk 16.74 might be helpful. Check that thread out.
Thanks! I'll give that a shot tonight
I was rooted with Magisk on the April build and attempted to update to May. So I used Magisk to uninstall, accepted the OTA, then used Magisk to reinstall (before rebooting) but I got an error about the phone being corrupt,. So I've spent the past several hours flashing the stock boot image to both boot slots, creating new Magisk patched images, flashing those to both boot slots, rebooting, and flashing stock boot images again to both boot slots. I've done every combination of flashing stock to one boot slot and patched to another, patched to both slots, and now stock to both slots. Any time I try to boot a patched boot image the phone reboots a few times and finally tells me it's corrupt and asks to reset it (which I haven't done and prefer not to do).
I can confirm that I'm on the May update and that I'm using the May boot image in my attempts to root again. At this point, I've wiped the Magisk app (thinking a module could be causing the issue when I root) and I'm back on the stock boot image and the phone seems to be working fine, just without root.
I feel like I'm missing something simple. Can someone point me in the right direction?
I stopped to update ROM with this method since march because i had always a bootloop.
Now i install the update by android flash tool and flash boot patched with fastboot command.
You could do it. I hope Twrp wil be released quickly.

I successfully updated to May and I've flashed the patched boot image in fastboot at least a dozen times (stock to patched, different partitions, patched to stock). The phone won't boot whenever I flash the patched image. It just bootloops and eventually gives me an error about being corrupt and asks if I want to factory reset.
Flash your patched image, then boot to safe mode, then reboot. It should work. I had the same issue and it ended up being something I had in Magisk, even though I had everything disabled. I ended up uninstalling everything in Magisk, and reinstalling.

And if this doesn't work you might have to wipe your phone and re-flash the appropriate build. I remember seeing posts in the past with users discussing a wipe and re-flash resolving the "phone is corrupt" issue.

I wiped data in Magisk since I can't access the modules to disable them right now (no root) and I also wiped data in Rice Tweaks since it was one of the mods I was using. I'll try this tonight and see if it works.

Before you wipe everything try this:
** ALSO: booting into safe mode automatically disables all Magisk modules **
How I root and update (which is identical whether rooting the first time or updating):
Use the latest Magisk Stable (in my case, I keep the app "hidden" / renamed)
Used the full firmware zip, extracted to the same folder as the latest Platform Tools (S:\platform-tools)
Extracted the new boot.img
Copied new boot.img to the phone
Patched the new boot.img with Magisk Stable
Renamed Magisk'd boot.img so I know what version of firmware it's for
Copied the Magisk'd boot.img back to the computer
Disabled all my Magisk Modules
Removed the "-w " from the flash-all.bat
Re-edited the flash-all.bat to verify I saved it with the "-w " taken out
Open a Command Prompt, navigated to S:\platform-tools
adb reboot bootloader
flash-all.bat
Let phone boot, unlock it, check that it's working, allow the update process to finish (gave it five minutes or so)
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash boot kernel.img (renamed Magisk'd boot.img)
fastboot reboot
Unlock, check everything's working
Re-enabled the most basic Magisk Modules which I was sure wouldn't cause a critical issue
Reboot, unlock, made sure everything's working

Thanks. Do you know if I can run the flash-all.bat if I'm already on the current update? I have the full firmware on my PC (so I could get the boot image).
It sounds like booting to safe mode is the one thing I haven't tried.
When I updated last night I tried to disable Magisk from within the app but Magisk didn't have a backup (because I had rooted on the April build from fastboot) so I flashed the factory April boot.img, then fastboot boot magisk-boot.img, then allowed Magisk to root my phone. Then disabled all the modules, unrooted with Magisk, accepted the OTA which took unusually long to install (2+ hours), then used Magisk to restore root but I think I forgot to tell it to do the inactive partition which may have cause all of my issues. When I rebooted it gave me the corrupt error.
From there I spent a bunch of time fastboot flashing and fastboot booting the stock and modified May boot images. I've got about 4 copies of the modified boot image where I kept recreating it hoping it'd work again.
Tonight I'll try to flash the modified boot.img and boot directly into safe mode to see if I can get it to load. I may also try wiping cache in recovery to see if that helps.

YES you can.
Just make sure to edit the flash-all.bat and remove -w
otherwise you WILL wipe.
THEN... after you save the edited flash-all.bat, edit it again to make sure the -w is in fact not there.
Ive been where you are before. I forgot to disable a mod and boot-looped.
I booted to safe mode then re-flashed with flash-all, patched the boot.img and flashed that via Magisk and I was golden.
I always use this method. I even went from 12-beta to 12.1 w/o so much as a hiccup.
OTA can be problematic (or has been for me in the past). this is simple, quick, and works every time.
My suggestion is to start from scratch: delete all those previously used/attempted files -especially the patched image.
d/l the new factory image, extract/patch that boot.img This way you know everything is from the same place.
cheers
Thanks guys for all the help. Safe Mode is going to work for me. I was able to root, boot to safe mode, and reboot normal. I'm slowly enabling modules until it errors again and I've found that Renovate Ice was the culprit. But whenever it errors, I can just boot to safe mode, reboot, and start fresh with modules. Thanks!
I have OnePlus7T Indian version. I was on 11.0.9.1 and rooted with Magisk Canary version. There was an Update to Magisk which I accidentally installed with OTA option instead of full. Now my phone is not booting. It goes into original recovery mode or fastboot only. How can I recover from this? I tried to flash the magisk patched image file and it shows as flashed but when I reboot I again reach original recovery / fastboot menu only. Please help!!
Problem solved but don't know how. I was trying many things and when I used Tool All in One to flash TWRP the phone rebooted into the system. Not even sure if TWRP is installed or not but everything is working now and phone is rooted. Not sure how it got resolved. Magisk is updated to latest version.

Most likely changed slot accidentally when it crashed and then corrected on multiple interventions

Hi. I am again having same problem. I updated Magisk Manager and Magisk and some other apps and phone was not booting. After many tries it again booted but all the modules in Magisk were off. So I switched them on and rebooted the phone and now it is just not booting. I tried to use Tool All In One to flash a TWRP but now there is no recovery. The phone is either not booting (stuck on Circle dot rotating) or just going into fastboot, does not go into recovery. I was on OOS11. I tried flashing original recovery through the tool but it fails. Any way out of this mess??

Thanks. I managed to boot the phone but having root problems. After spending a number of hours doing various trials and checking Xda threads I managed to get it to boot again but root was lost.
I again read more articles and learnt that I have to flash recovery to both partitions so I used Tool All in one, changed active slots and flashed the magisk patched image from this thread i think on both slots. But i am not sure. I managed to get root but the Magisk manager was not getting installed.
I tried few other things and finally i am now not able to root again. Phone is booting after I flash a recovery but I am not sure if it will boot if restarted or go into loop.
Can anyone explain the proper procedure and sequence to follow for rooting and which files to use.
I am on OOS11.09.1

Hi. I already used these boot images but I was still having a problem. I had flashed the stock image to both partitions and then the Magisk patched image also but either I was not rooted or Magisk App not working. Finally got things to work by installing TWRP to partition a I believe. I changed active partition to a and then flashed the twrp recovery. Again changed active to b and booted and had root. I had to install Magisk Canary 25210 version only as other versions did not install. After checking on net it seems this version is faulty. So I installed Magisk Delta, then installed Magisk using Direct Install option, rebooted, checked regular Magisk Manager and showed the same Magisk version. Removed all modules from old Magisk Manager and unstalled the app. Setup Magisk Delta modules, hide, SuList as well as apps like LSPosed, HMA etc and now everything is working again.
I still am not very sure where the recovery is installed, on partition a or b? And if a difference recovery is installed on each partition what happens? I am pretty sure I had not installed TWRP on partition b. I am also assuming that once I set a partition as active and flash a recovery in fastboot that recovery is flashed to that partition, is this correct? Things are working but I don't know if the phone will go to recovery mode from system, I have not tried that. So I am not very clear yet but still got things to work.

Only data partition is shared. All else have both A and B parts
