I had to solve same problem the other day. I unlocked, flashed stock recovery from 3.2.8 then adb sideload 3.2.8, locked bootloader, reboot and let it update to Nougat, between all steps full resets.

Here are the Proper Instructions to Install Oxygen OS 4.0 without DM - Verity Error and F2FS -
For Unlocked Bootloader + TWRP + Rooted users (Having any Rom installed before) -
Requisites -
Backup All your internal Storage Data - Sync all Google Stuff - backup all Messages or stuff.

Hyper Stock - https://forum.xda-developers.com/one...stock-t3521946
Procedure -
1.) As mentioned, BACKUP EVERYTHING.
2.) Flash stock oxygen recovery though fastboot or in twrp.
3.) Boot to stock recovery, sideload Official 4.0 ota via adb.
4.) Reboot and dont set up device ( not necessary ) enable developer settings and usb debugging.
5.) Flash TWRP .23 NOT .28 (.28 is bugged with decryption and f2fs errors)
6.) Boot to twrp, wipe /data to f2fs and /system and /cache to ext4.
7.) As wiping everything, copy any custom oxygen os build and supesu 2.79
8.) Flash any custom oxygen os build ( all these 3 builds flashes supersu itself, so no need to flash supersu, buy keep it for further later use.)
9.) Reboot, Setup and copy all ur stuff.
This method will surely get u a Rooted, decrypted, f2fs /data partition Oxygen Os 4.0.
For Stock/Twrp Recovery, Encrypted/Decrytped, Locked/Unlocked Bootloader, Unrooted Users (Those who dont want to root or decyrpt) -
1.) Backup is necessary as internal storage will be wiped, its a one time process as for now every Oneplus update will be f2fs /data compatible.
2.) ADB sideload 4.0 ota.
3.) Reboot and dont set up device ( not necessary )
4.) Go to backup and reset in settings, do a factory reset with internal storage ( This will wipe everything, BACKUP NEEDED )
5.) Let the process complete and check /data partition via DiskInfo app.
6.) If it isnt, do a factory reset again via stock recovery.
7.) If nothing helps, follow first method.
I cant guarantee this will work, but many users have reported this as working.
I think this will be sufficient

Will this method continue working if I install a custom rom after? Also, what do u mean by the new recovery supports f2fs decryption? Does it mean that your method doesn't or that we don't have to do these steps?

Hi,
to be synthetic:
From TWRP recovery, change filesystem to Ext4 for both Data and Cache, then full wipe everything (System too);
Go back to OxygenOS v3.2.8;
Be sure to replace TWRP with Stock Recovery (download from 3.2.8 official thread);
Lock bootloader (both from Developer Options and Fastboot);
Sideload via recovery OxygenOS v4.0;
Consider to factory reset for a clean installation.
For more clarifications, I'm at your disposal

I presume you are on OOS. Download and flash full zip of OOS (not OTA), flash TWRP (latest) and flash Magisk in that order. Reboot after all flash is complete.
To be on the safer side, wipe system, data (excluding storage), Dalvic and cache and reboot into recovery before flashing OOS.

Hi its quiet easy.
U have TWRP recivery.
So first download OOS full zip. Yhe link you can find in oneplus website or forum.
Then download latest magisk from official site .( It is universal ,it is not device specific. )
Back up your data.
Go to recovery ,do a nandroid backup( optional but recommended)
Then wipe cache,dalvic,system,data( all data gone)
Dont format sd card. ( Files in internal memory preserved,but still better to back up)
Then install the OOS zip
After that install magisk zip
Reboot to recovery( to preserve the TWRP,some times it gets changed to stock)
Reboot system.
Check for magisk manager
If not download from magisk forum. Check root.
you are done.
This is all According to my knowledge. Please feel free to correct me.
Usefull links ( i hope i can share links no issue in that !??)

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

Question Query regarding update Miui EU 12.5.3.0

Hi,
I have Mi 11X India handset and have unlocked bootloader and installed Miui Eu 12.5.2.0 ROM a few days back. Today while checking the inbuilt updater app, a new update Miui 12.5.3.0 EU ROM. Can I update using the inbuilt updater?? Or should I download the file and install the update via fastboot method only??
Also Can I install TWRP Alpha released few days back?? I mean I am on Miui 12.5.2.0 EU ROM which I installed via fastboot method. Can I install TWRP now??
If yes, then should I have to use TWRP to update to the new update?? Or can I do via fastboot method??

You have to use TWRP to install the new version. In TWRP, select the EU ROm.zip file from the install menu and complete the installation.
Fastboot method is no longer supported.

Yes thats right
If you are going to install it on the previous EU rom;
1-Copy the EU rom .zip file to internal memory.
2-Install TWRP
3-Open TWRP
4-Select the .zip file in memory from the Install section and complete the installation.
If you want, you can just start TWRP and use it. ADB Command : fastboot boot twrp.img
Please see the attached picture for permanent setup after opening TWRP.
If you want to factory reset it after installation, you can Wipe Data.(After installing Eu rom, do Wipe data.)

Sorry bad english

I have installed the new Miui EU 12.5.3.0 update without installing the TWRP. All I did was download the TWRP file and place it in adb tools folder. Also downloaded the 12.5.3.0 zip file and placed in in device internal memory. Opened command prompt. Entered "fastboot boot twrp.img" and TWRP launched in Device. Then went to Install in TWRP, selected the ROM Zip file from internal memory and installed the ROM. All working fine and I have also TWRP now on my device.

This is asking the experts here. Can some expert who has been playing with TWRP and Custom ROMs provide some feedback.
I have a Mi 11x Indian Variant. It came with Miui Global Stable. I unlocked bootloader and installed the fastboot EU ROM 12.5.2.0 via fastboot method. Three days later EU ROM 12.5.3.0 ROM was released which is not a fastboot ROM but Recovery ROM. Hence it could have been installed only with TWRP Recovery. Instead of installing TWRP I just booted TWRP on my handset with command fastboot boot twrp.img and then selected Install on the screen and selected the downloaded EU ROM 12.5.3.0 from Device internal memory which I copied earlier after downloading it on my laptop. Proceeded with Install and update 12.5.3.0 was installed and the Device booted into system with 12.5.3.0 update applied. Also since this update also included TWRP, TWRP also got installed. I can boot into TWRP recovery from my handset.
Now what I want to understand is, that have I done everything correctly?? Did I had to do anything extra?? Like some wipe data or format data or something?? I simply wanted to update from 12.5.2.0 which was a fastboot ROM to 12.5.3.0 which was a recovery ROM. And I have done exactly the same as explained above. Haven't faced any errors or issues. Just want to understand if everything I did was correct. Or should I have done something extra? I mean I dont want to face any issued or errors in future and loose my data.
Please throw some light.

There is no need to extend the subject that much. You did everything right.
Nobody can guarantee that there will be no software problems in the future.
If you have a problem in the future, you back up your data and wipe data / cache OK.

Question Help: Can't flash twrp recovery from PC to my Phone (F3)

I successfully unlocked my bootloader, then I tried flashing the twrp by following munchy's tutorial from YouTube (as someone recommended here). I also used the twrp recovery file he provided in the description, by using the latest platform tools from the official website. It was going pretty good. I even got the TeamWin logo, and also loaded up the twrp interface, and was able to navigate through it. But the problem was my internal storage wasn't showing up. So I booted back to my system normally to see If I can find a solution. Then I think I tried again after restarting to see if it fixes itself, but the same problem was persisting. The next time when I tried again, I used the latest twrp version which I downloaded from the official twrp website.
But since my 3rd attempt, I am not able to see any TeamWin recovery come up on my phone, when I connect I do the "fastboot boot (twrp filename)" command in cmd. When I do the command, nothing shows up. The device remains in the Fastboot mode, or just turns off. When I switch it back on, It turns on normally and boots into the phone without any issues, and I can use it. I've tried switching back to the original twrp version munchy used in the above linked video, but same result.
What did I do wrong here? How do I make my phone get into the twrp recovery when I enter the fastboot boot (twrp filename) command thru my PC? How do I make my Internal Storage available to view int he TWRP recovery so I can install it from my Downloads folder? I am on MIUI 14.0.4 If that helps. My end goal is to install Magisk.
Any tips/guides/suggestions are appreciated.

Installing TWRP and root does not erase your data.
Remove security from the lock screen. (decryption).Normally the latest TWRP decrypts the data.
Install Platform tools ,put the TWRP in the folder and run the commands from the folder.
TWRP SKK, Use A12 if your system is in A12/A13 if system A13.
Rename it to twrp.img
CMD
fastboot boot twrp.img
Powershell
./fastboot boot twrp.img
Once booted, go to Advanced -> Press "Flash current TWRP"
If offered, both slots.

Thank you. I had put backed the screen lock after the first 2 attempts because someone said to to that on a YT video after they faced the same problem. Now I tried again by removing the screen lock and the latest twrp for my device also boots up just fine. Now the problem Is I still can't access my internal storage .

Still having removed the screen security?
Which rom(fullname)?
Which TWRP?
Try to mount storage.

Yes, I removed the screen security, though I can enter TWRP, I can't read the internal storage. MIUI 14.0.4.
I just watched a YT video where the dude does the following:
-TWRP Recovery
- Wipe
- Format Data
- Types 'yes'
then
-TWRP Recovery
- Reboot
- Recovery
- Do not Install
After coming back to recovery after rebooting, he gets a pop up, which at the swipe says "Swipe to allow for modifications" which he swipes, then now after checking the Internal Storage, It's readable now. Is this a possible solution?

Twrp A13, obviously if you don't want to keep the data.
Twrp/wipe format data type yes/reboot TWRP.
If error red lines, reboot TWRP and repeat the operation.
Sideload roms or use OTG.

what's twrp A13? Also, I just unlocked my bootloader a few hours ago, so my phone has already done a factory reset and i don't have anything to lose except the Magisk APK and .img file in my phone.
But I have a question, will doing the format data just do a factory reset, or will I lose my ROM? Because I'm not trying to install a custom ROM, I just want to Install Magisk as the end goal with my current ROM.

MIUI 14 Android 13 so use this TWRP
plugged the phone into the PC when it is on the TWRP, you will have access to the internal storage. (works on my 12 pro aves twrp A13 Skk).
twrp-3.7.0_12-v7.5_A13-alioth-skkk.img

I'm using the latest one I could find on the TWRP website for my device. Not aware If it supports Android 13 though as it isn't mentioned on the website. Just asking my prev question, will doing the format data from TWRP just do a factory reset, or do I lose the ROM and will have to install a custom ROM?
second question I forgot to ask in my prev post, after i do the format data and put the Magisk APK and twrp img file again on my device, will my device stay decrypted as I formatted the data, or will the problem persist?
sorry If i sound dumb

Use this TWRP(officiel).
twrp-3.7.0_12-v7.5_A13-alioth-skkk.img

thank you, this is the one I was looking for. Sorry to bother you again, now I installed the Magisk V26.1 apk from TWRP. And when I boot back to system and try opening the magisk manager, this happens. It says downloading, forever. I think I shouldn't have directly downloaded the latest version. So probably have to downgrade it a bit. For that, what will I have to do?
Can I just hold the Magisk icon, and uninstall it simply like any other app? Or do I have to do it from the TWRP? Also, Is it necessary for me to uninstall it before downgrading, or can I just download the apk of older magisk version and flash it from twrp just like I did previously?

It was on my first post.

TWRP + Root
Hi all. Hope you are good and safe from Covid-19. If you like TWRP as your recovery and want to keep root access as well, I am going to show you how to do that. Because if you take the stock boot.img and patch it via magisk, you will lose TWRP...

Try OrangeFox. I never had problems with it. Been using it for half a year and constantly flash new ROM builds as a tester

I don't doubt it, the Twrp A12 also works for certain operations on an A13 system but for certain Miui roms some bootloop.

Hm ok.
Welp for me on AOSP, it works nicely. I flash a new build (or two) every week. Backup/Restore works as should. UI is nice and modern, imo better than TWRP. That's why I'm recommending it.
Haven't heard anyone saying that they can't view Phone storage on OrangeFox.

Hi,
@NOSS8 , I'd like to ask : I've only some hours to wait to unlock the BL. But one question, as it's yet the stock rom (FW V13.0.11.0, A12), wich twrp should I use ? I want to install a A13 rom (that supposes FW V 14.xxx !)
So :
- fastboot boot twrp (but wich one ?? A12 or 13 ?? ; skkk ? Or ?) (+ "flash current twrp" OR "install it in ramdisk"?)
- reboot recovery
- flash FW V14.xxx
- flash rom
- format data
- reboot system
- flash magisk (last version ? Seems to be 'big' changes ?)
- flash what I need (V4A, DFE (??), ....)
What do you think ?
Thanks a lot ! Main question is about what version of twrp.. Help will be very appreciated !

Instead, use Miflash with a Fastboot rom, you can extract the boot img for root.(don't re lock the bootloader).
You can root without TWRP, but according to this thread, if you root you lose the TWRP and vice versa, I don't know if this is still relevant.(I don't have this device).
If you need ,install the TWRP A13 after flashing the A13.

Advantage with Miflash, the Fastboot roms contain all the imgs.

I'm very greatfull for your quick reply ! Thanks
The device is too a Poco f3, sorry.. This doesn't need to flash magisk for twrp to stick (I had another one I've broken)
But I don't understand what's the advantage to first flash a fastboot rom..? As you say to flash twrp would loose root and vice versa... (I've read the thread you're talking about ofox)
So I wanted to go trough +- the way I mentionned, as A13 as well as ofox 'seems' to work (but I'm carefull with that twrp on stock MIUI A12, and I never used ofox..)
So you do think it's a bad idea ?? The rom I want to flash is crdroid.
I'm more lost now ...
Thanks again !
