Read / Write File system? - OnePlus 7T Questions & Answers

Is it possible to have the file system Read/Write -able on a rooted OP7T? I have mine running on 10.0.9HD65AA (rooted) and the file system is read only.

That is something that Android 10 has introduced. You can't write to /system if booted. You need to be in recovery for this or use Magisk with its overlay capabilities.

I have Magisk, is the overlay needed in the downloads section of Magisk? Also is it possible to take my 7T back to Android 9? Thanks for the info btw!

No, I mean Magisk creates and overlay for /system. All modules you install modify the overlay of /system to change /system.
Like linked to a fake /system to change files inside /system without changing changing them.
You can downgrade to Android 9 via the MSM tool.

I have the MSM tool and have used it successfully to downgrade 10.0.9 to 10.0.7 but its Android 10 still. Where could I find the Android 9 ROMS?
UPDATE: I don't think OP7T ever ran on A9......so its not possible. I guess it's not possible at all to write to system if booted.

Oh, my bad. I'm still feeling like having the OP6 as I've just switched to the 7T. I forgot that the OnePlus 7T never ran OOS 9

Yes. It's complex because of TWRP.

Thanks for the answer, i already saw this thread but as I already said I'm not a big Expert in this topic, so that guide in the thread is too complex and short for me (and for other most likely too...)
Maybe you can explain it more precisly to us?
I would be very greatful for this!
Or if you know a way too archieve what i want but loose twrp and data... I wouldn't mind. I dont Need twrp and my Phone is New... So
Thanks in advance!

You can't do it simpler. Mostly because you've got to get back to stock for the OTA.
You can do it different. Get the fastboot. Flash that (don't erase userdata). Then install Magisk and TWRP again.
Not every release gets a fastboot but 11.0.4.0 did so you have this option.
Can you explain this more for me pls?
- What exact files do I need?
- what exactly should i do with these files? (flash with terminal, TWRP, Slot A, Slot B, etc.....)
- is it relevant which version of Android 9 i have?
you would help me alot, if you explain it in detail so that i can do it.
I already tried in android 10 unlocking bootloader and flashed the "disable force encryption" but got stuck on booting screen.
Pls tell me how exactly i should do what, and i will post my results
Thanks !

Recomendations
Hello,
I just updated from Android 9 stock ROM, to Android 10 with a custom ROM.
I followed this two YouTube guides from the same user:
How to root and install TWRP:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wy9Z_NN_7Tg&list=LLm7cWm_1QXORlLa5XeTETUw&index=12&t=365s
How to install custom ROM(In my case I installed Evolution X with Android 10 following these steps):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S0pcmA_ew-Y&list=LLm7cWm_1QXORlLa5XeTETUw&index=13&t=173s
**Advise**
- Use the same files and versions that he uses, If you use/do something different, you are going to have some problems.
What I'm currently running on my Mi A2 Lite:
- Evolution X ROM(Android 10) -> https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/development/rom-evolution-x-3-3-t4014685
- Nitrogen Kernel r3 -> https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2-lite/development/r1-nitrogen-kernel-mi-a2-lite-t4011019
Everything has been very stable at the moment(1 week and lots of gaming and restarts and tests), so I feel fine sharing this.
Best,
delokt

Install instructions in that thread. TL;DR Run the flash_all_keeping_userdata script to upgrade to the version you downloaded. 11.0.4.0 is what you want.
You have Magisk and TWRP. Install them the same way you did before. Go read their threads if you forgot or use the last part of my guide.
Hello Friends, i have good news, i successfully updated my Phone to android 10 and keep TWRP and magisk!
I did the following steps:
- clean install of fastbood v.11.0.4. Android 10 via Mi-Flashtool
- powershell adb: fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-dees_troy-daisy.img
- TWRP should open on Mi a2 lite. go to advanced and activate adb sideload
- powershell: adb sideload twrp-installer-3.3.1-dees_troy-daisy.zip
TWRP should now be installed.
Then i tried a reboot system and got into the welcome screen, so it booted.
What i did next is, the magisk v20.4 zip file move to sd card or internal storage of the device and flash it trough TWRP.
DONE!
now your phone should reboot to system. It now has Android 10 and magisk installed and working!
Hope i can help someone else with this.

Root Google pixel 2 xl - android 11

Hello everyone
Please can you help me to root pixel 2 xl - android 11
And is there any custom rom with android 11
We could, but it's important to note that if you have a Verizon Pixel 2 XL, root is NOT POSSIBLE.
Anyway, assuming you have the correct P2XL, the rooting instructions we give here in the forums haven't changed appreciably since they were written. For Android 11, they still apply, with the caveat that you currently have to use the "Canary" version of Magisk (i.e. the development channel version of Magisk) in order for root to work.
How about ????

That' indicates you have a Google variant, not a Verizon variant. So you're good to go with unlocking your bootloader, etc.
You should delete that picture as it shows your CSN number.

Brother please help me out. I've tried everything but I am just unable to root my pixel 2 xl running the latest android version (11).
I tried patching the boot image with latest canary build and it always outputs an image file which is of 0 bytes.
Then I tried patching the boot image with latest magisk manager (not canary), it was able to output a file which was around 25 MB in size but flashing it always results in boot loop.
Finally, I tried to patch my boot image using some other device with magisk canary (latest) and the output image was about 25 MB in size but again after flashing it, the device goes into boot loop.
--UPDATE--
I was finally able to root my device by simply flashing the latest magisk zip file (v 21.0) via TWRP

Yes, just to clarify for others reading this, topjohnwu pushed Magisk 21 to the beta channel. It should be on the stable channel shortly, so there will soon be no need to deviate from the established rooting instructions we have in the forums.

I had that happen. Unfortunately, the only solution I found was to use the online Google flash tool and flash back to the previous install. Fortunately, it worked. I updated to 11 from there. I may leave it uprooted because currently the Pixel 2 XL is a backup phone and I don't need root currently.

grab the latest full ota from oxygen updater by downloading it to device storage - go to system update; local update - install the ota but do not reboot - once installed go into magisk and install to inactive slot (after ota) - reboot and profit

Flashing a non-matching boot image is a rather bad idea. Install the update, don't reboot. Then install Magisk to INACTIVE slot and reboot. Done.

Exactly, and thx for your info!
One question. Why is it necessary to deactivate the magisk module before the update? Maybe somebody knows. I forgot to disable some of them without any issues. Just out of interest, as it is mentioned or recommended from time to time.

Some of the modules may not be compatible with upgrade, causing issues like bootlooping. That makes it a pain in the butt, to enter recovery and and delete the module.
There isn't a recovery yet (that can delete Magisk mods). Some mods might copy system files during installation to mess with them. Keeping the module means you might carry over system files from an older system version, causing trouble with new updates. Hence: turn them off before the update (except for stuff where you know it won't cause harm, like systemless hosts). And _reinstall_ those that modify system stuff, e.g. Qualcomm Wifi Bonding. This won't e.g. cause boot loops, but on my sons phone wifi was dead until I reinstalled the module.

Installed C.44 EU over C.38 EU using local update app, latest Magisk Alpha, and keep root using the Magisk OTA option before rebooting after the update.
No need to unroot to upgrade
i went from c.39 to c.40 the day before yesterday. i used mlgmxyysd's tool to flash c39's stock images to the device then updated through the updater.
found the flashed boot image, flashed it (just like the old way, fastboot flash boot.img).
i then installed c.44 ota, went to magisk, installed it to the inactive slot, rebooted, and it ran fine.
with magisk alpha, you don't need the toolbox anymore (i believe)
Anyone have problem with haptics on c44? Haptics feedback is just missing on some menu actions.

Question Are the newer US ver still allowing,rooth with TWRP?

Seeing a lot of issues with Android 11 and 12 unlocking the bootloader and applying root. Is now not a good time to upgrade or should I wait for a boot image?
Not quite sure what you're referring to, but there are zero issues with unlocking the bootloader or rooting your device...
I can't speak for TWRP. I have had issues with it the last few versions so I had to make due without it. If I am mistaken about having twrp on the OP9 Pro on the newest LE2125 c61 update, I'd be interested.
Anyway, my response is mostly to address your question regarding root. Here are the steps that worked for me.

If you like to flash a custom ROM. Follow the instructions and you will be fine.
I am coming off the oneplus 7pro was enjoying TWRP and Magisk, with Exposed now I am hearing TWRP isn't working on anything above 10.0 ver. Guess I have to do so more research or pay Monfrio a ransom to work on TWRP.

I always just sideload. (downdload magisk apk & rename to zip before)

If you want to install any add-ons, Reboot to Recovery, then when your device reboots, click Apply Update, then Apply from ADB, then adb sideload filename.zip those packages in sequence. (GAPPS or Magisk for example)
for example for magisk:
download the newest magisk apk version
after download, rename it and instead of .apk do it .zip
go into revovery and click Apply Update, then Apply from ADB
command is : "adb sideload Magisk-v2X.X.zip"
you must exchange X for your version.
Boot images gets patched
please note that I am not an expert, that is just what I found somewhere and use since then.
if you need more information you could also check the install instructions for lineageOS to get to know some basics: https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/lemonadep/install
