10.0.5 boot.img?

Hey all! I'm trying to root my OnePlus 7t but I'm on 10.0.5 stock and I can't find a patched boot.img, or even a stock one to patch in Magisk. I'm on the global variant. If someone could point me in the right direction, that would be grand. I have already read mostly all the posts...

I have the US version which I think is also the global version. Here's my patched boot.img for 10.0.5
https://drive.google.com/file/d/12tZN5D7dmovIeqsx8sTF-B0z2gxA6LG8/view?usp=sharing
Here's the stock boot for 10.0.5 as well if you screw something up.

Don't ask why the file sizes are so different. It just gets smaller for some reason after patching it in magisk.

I just booted with an older one and flashed the latest magisk

Do I only need to flash the patched img or both ?
And do they need to be flashed to both A and B slots ?
Thanks for sharing

I would try fastboot boot before you use fastboot flash just to make sure that the device will boot successfully with the images. You should only need to fastboot boot magisk_patched.img, then open Magisk Manager and install Magisk by choosing the direct install option in the list. You only need the steps I mentioned to have root, and if you flash it to A and B at once you can get stuck in a bootloop. I had that happen at one point from flashing both partitions, and I dont recommend trying it.

Ya, I tried every relevant boot image I could find in the forums, and the device didnt work properly with any of them. The only one that allowed the device to boot successfully caused the wifi and sounds to not work. So I downloaded the full update from OnePlus and extracted it to a folder, then used payload dumper to extract all of the individual images out of the payload.bin file from OnePlus. I copied the boot.img into the phone storage and installed Magisk Manager, then patched the stock boot.img and copied it from the phone to my pc. Then I used fastboot boot magisk_patched.img to make sure the image I made would work. I booted the device and inside Magisk Manager I chose direct install in the list of options and everything went smoothly, and I didnt need to rely on finding images online that would hopefully work.

Thanks a bunch for the share. That was the missing piece that I've been looking for. I have the HD1905 variant and I just used Magisk to patch the stock file you provided. After testing, I'm finally rooted. Thanks again.

Pre-rooted Boot Image OP7T European HD65BA 10.0.7

Hello,
I have seen few requests about providing pre-rooted boot image file for OP7T European version for firmware 10.0.6 so here you go.
Steps :
1) Reboot your phone in bootloader mode (fastboot mode).
2) Execute command fastboot boot magisk_patched.img
3) Reboot the device
4) Install Magisk Manager
5) Click on Install, then direct install and wait the end of the process
6) Reboot the device
Also attaching the stock boot file in case anything goes wrong.
P.S : I don't own European OP7T.

Can you do one for the 10.0.6 USA Version? I can't find one anywhere. Thanks so much. I can't even find a copy of the stock 10.0.6 US boot img

Worked well, got my phone rooted yesterday.

Sorry for this question, flashing this boot image will wipe my device?
Thanks.

NO! First time you unlock your bootloader thats wipe your device, not when flashing a boot.img

it's not working for me with Oxygen 10.0.6 HD65BA.
If i try to boot the magisk patched boot image the phone just reboot within fastboot mode, and if i try to normally boot i just can't update magisk.
-----
Update:
I found this surfing the net :
Unlike older OnePlus phones, the current bootloader of the OnePlus 7 Pro doesn’t allow ‘fastboot boot’ (also known as tethered booting) command. The situation is same as Essential PH-1 as well some other phones where you can’t temporarily boot a kernel or recovery.

Sorry for being late. Please try this : https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-7t/how-to/pre-rooted-boot-image-op7t-global-t4009305

Thanks, I found the instructions on how to do it already and took the Global boot image. I am just booting it with fastboot boot instead of flash. Just being cautious is all.

Same situation over there, trying either boot or flash the image, the phone reboots itself into bootloader. Stock 10.0.6.

What is the difference between global and European? And can i still update ota after flashing this?

Hello !
Thanks for the guide !
I successfully installed Magisk, but once I install Riru core and EdXposed, my OP7T also gets stuck and boots only into fastboot. After wiping everything to factory reset, my phone is back to normal.
Is EdXposed working with this version of Magisk ?
(OpenPlus 7T HD65BA 10.0.6)
Thanks for help
Edit : problem solved with this method.

Excellent.
Many thanks @zanderzone

Most likely you won't get any notifications if there are updates. You won't be able to use incremental updates.
But you can keep root flashing magisk right after the update before rebooting your phone.

could someone help me? I got the european version but if i try to boot the magisk_patched.img i just get stuck in fastboot mode and if i try to flash the patched image i get stuck in fastboot mode and i've to flash again the stock boot.
I also tried the global one but without any results.
Thanks
edit. I have the HD65BA 10.0.6 version

I was able to boot using your magisk_patched.img using "fastboot boot magisk_patched.img", but WIFI doesn't work now. I haven't inserted the SIM yet so I am unable to install magisk (it can't connect to download it). Is it only my case, or did it happen to anyone else? Any fixes?
Or is ir a temporary thing and after installing magisk it will work (WIFI)?
EDIT: with "fastboot boot Stock_boot.img" I get the same WIFI problem. Rebooting normally makes WIFI work again.
EDIT2: I tried it with the SIM on and the process was perfect. Thank you for that patched boot image and the tutorial!!!

Any chance @zanderzone that you could put a 10.0.7 version up?
I lost root with the recent update...
I found the detailed instructions too late.

Go to system settings and update locally, then select the rom you downloaded from the OnePlus site, if wifi still doesn't work, search "payload dumper" and dump boot.img from that very rom you just downloaded and installed. That's how I fixed it for me

How do I extract a boot image from a GSI rom without TWRP.

I recently bought a Chinese phone from a relatively unknown manufacturer, so I was unable to find any TWRP images that match the device, I was wondering if it was possible to extract the boot image directly from a GSI ROM. My end goal is to install Magisk so if there is a better way to go about this please let me know.

can you tell model and brand

Due to my understanding, GSI have no boot.img , it uses stock boot image ( along with all other needed partitions ). So if your purpose is to root using Magisk, just find the correct boot.img of the current stock firm on your device before GSI and patch it with Magisk!

I have a Vortex V22 MTM6761 There is no stock rom. It has unofficial GSI Pixel experience plus 13.0 running on it. I too would like to root. How can I retrieve the boot.img file from the GSI rom? Or how can I pull it from the phone via terminal and fastboot? All help is greatly appreciated! Happy Saint Patricks Day!

For devices which powered by MediaTek SOC, after flash the patched boot.img, you will need to flash patched blank vbmeta.img in order to bypass AVB with follow command :
fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img
in which vbmeta.img is a patched blank vbmeta of your device

Thank you for the quick reply. I'm not sure I quite understand your message.
Flashing a vbmeta.img will give me a boot.img? I have a GSI PixelExperience 13.IMG file. The command fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img was flashed along with it. It was running a different rom prior to flashing the GSI PixelExp 13.IMG
All I want to do is Root the device. I've been told over and over I need the boot.img partition to modify for Root access, but I can't get unless i'm in Root or have access to the current ROM BOOT.IMG, Correct?
Why is the BOOT.IMG or Payload.BIN missing from GSI IMG ROMS? is there another way to convert or pull from a ROM like that?

Yep, I think u misunderstanding me from my very first msg. What I meant back there was : GSI ROM is what called Generic System Image. Which means, it has ONLY system.img that you will need to flash into system partition of the device. Therefore, if you need the boot image in order to patch it with Magisk or else, you will need to extract the boot.img of the CURRENT ROM which is already running on your device ( and normally, it should be stock ROM ). Cuz to be in short, GSI ROM does not have any boot.img for you to seek for, my friend!

Thank you for the message my friend. I understand that part of it. There is no stock ROM, at least I don't think there is on it. It is a a/b system but I've tried to go back to factory reset but it does not work and goes into a boot loop. So I load the GSI pixel experience rom to get it working again.
So what you are saying is, if I do not have the stock ROM, I cannot get the BOOT.IMG, Correct? So I am pretty much out of luck to get a boot.img from a GSI? Is there another generic ROM I could use that would have a boot.IMG? Ive tried a dozen ROMS and the latest pixel experience 13 unofficial rom was the only one that worked. Maybe Im trying the wrong ROM's. I do know I need A/B versions of them, I think.
If anyone else might know a way to help get me out of this situation, I would greatly appreciate. Thank you my friends!

You need to understand the basic core point is : GSI is ALWAYS system image only my friend. Boot.img can be found only on FULL ROM, not GSI. And there's always stock ROM for ANY DEVICES, what you need to do is just Google with keywords : Your-Device-Full-name Stock ROM Download. Then choose the correct one which is currently running on your device and download it. Boot.img will be right there on the zip.

Thank you! I do realize the obvious. If I was able to find it, I wouldn't be asking for help. I have rooted close to a hundred phones with stock ROM's going back over a decade.
What I'm asking is, What if the stock rom cannot be found? There is no other alternative way? I challenge finding this particular stock ROM.
Vortex V22 Model 2ADLJ-V22 MT6761V/WBB.
I have searched over and over for months on various search engines and found nothing. Maybe the ROM is uploaded somewhere in a different language other than English. I would be absolutely stunned if the stock rom was found on the internet.
Can I extract boot.img from terminal via fastboot or other linux or win program?

I have 2 models I cannot find stock ROM's for:
Vortex V22 Model 2ADLJ-V22 MT6761V/WBB - manufacture date year 2022
Moxee M2160 Model MH-T6000 2APQU-MH-T6000 Q6006_V1.0 - manufacture date year 2022
Can anyone find anything? I have scoured the web for months!
I can't believe there is nothing available for these phones.
Please let me know if you can find a stock ROM. I would love to learn where and how you found them. As I've have found nothing for months and months.
Thank you!!!

Question Going back to CN Rom from Global

hey guys, successfully flashed the global rom over my redmagic 6 pro CN version but decided to go back to the CN rom, but when I try to install it via local update it results in a recovery boot loop and the only option is to do a factory reset, but when I do a factory reset, for some reason it goes back to the Global Rom. Any tips on what I need to do? thanks

Personally what I would do is extract the boot image from the CN rom zip and fastboot flash it after you flash the CN rom via local update. You will have to be bootloader unlocked of course. You can always relock after you've got the CN rom up and running.

I actually tried that but then it get's stuck on the Nubia logo, so something must have gone wrong somewhere, and one odd thing is if I try installing the latest V2.63 CN rom via local update it tells me that the package is not compatible with the phone. At least the Redmagic 5G had the local update option on its recovery. Nothing at all on the Redmagic 6 Pro. Isn't recovery.img included in the payload.bin? doesn't seem to be there when I dumped the payload

I believe the recovery is part of the boot image now. I've dumped the payload too and I'll have a quick look and see if it's present. I have all the files for the US, global version. It's 4.1.2 I believe. I'll be happy to help any way I can. I just had a bad experience today... I've had my 6 Pro a week and already the cord has quit working. Not a good sign. I'm starting to regret my purchase.

I actually tried that but then it get's stuck on the Nubia logo, so something must have gone wrong somewhere, and one odd thing is if I try installing the latest V2.63 CN rom via local update it tells me that the package is not compatible with the phone. At least the Redmagic 5G had the local update option on its recovery. Nothing at all on the Redmagic 6 Pro. Isn't recovery.img included in the payload.bin? doesn't seem to be there when I dumped the payload

I checked and sure enough no recovery image. Pretty sure it's baked into the boot image. Perhaps try the 4.1.2 boot image? That may boot it. Seems like you've rebranded it global version by flashing the global rom. That's a possibility anyways

ok I'll try to play around with it, won't flashing the 4.1.2 boot.img cause a brick?

Shouldn't cause a brick. If you've already flashed global before there shouldn't be any problem. But to be sure instead of flashing just fastboot boot the image.
Fastboot boot boot.img
This will allow you the luxury of trying it without actually flashing it. If it hangs up simply reboot by holding power.

cool didn't know I could do that, thanks for the tip

Personally what I would do is extract the boot image from the CN rom zip and fastboot flash it after you flash the CN rom via local update. You will have to be bootloader unlocked of course. You can always relock after you've got the CN rom up and running.

hmm i tried this method, it seems like my phone just went back to global rom even after cn boot image flashed

China rom is faster than global
