OnePlus updater - OnePlus 8 Pro Themes, Apps, and Mods

Not my app but a find in the play store
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.arjanvlek.oxygenupdater
Just used it to update from 5.5 to 5.6.
I wasn't being offered it from system update so I thought I'd try it.
Worked first time.
Update: oxygen 11 released for the UK / EU

Thanks
Thanks for the post, just updated this way.
For some reason there were no update available for mine I was stuck on 5.4 - > Now 5.6 via this updater.

Nice one. Good to know it's not just me

After getting tired of waiting for the OTA update to 10.5.11.IN11BA to arrive, I used the Oxygen Updater to do it myself.
However, after the update I noticed that in the System Update screen, the changelog that was previously available at the bottom (as a slide up) is now gone.
Is this behavior expected? Should I worry for something, e.g. not getting any future OTAs?

Actually the app identifies your model and will only provide updates for that model..
I mean that's my experiences of it.

No

New dev preview available for the EU version via the app.
Haven't taken the plunge as I need stability at the moment.
Anyone flashes it, please let me know how it goes

10.5.12 is now available for the EU version of the device..
Downloading now..
Edit:
Installed and working well.
Couldn't comment on battery yet but feature wise it's about the same.

Thanks for writing about the app here. I just installed 10.5.14 on my EU OP8 Pro and everything is working well. The "official" installer didn't show this Update.
Magisk and NoLimits are working well.

Yep absolutely, this app has been a god send to many, works with root albeit with an added process, beyond that's it's a spot on app.
Long may it last.

The official oxygen 11 update has rolled out for the UK / EU
Information as per oxygen updater.
Let the good times begin.

New update has arrived for the EU 2023
Will be updating and seeing if root, centre clock, xXx are affected..
Apparently canvas is now integrated too.

Does anyone have the OTA link for the new EU version?
Or the Stock boot.img ?
I downloaded it to my phone using the app, did a local update, before rebooting installed magisk beta to my inactive slot, and did a reboot.
Now its stuck while booting, and TWRP doesnt seem to boot either with fastboot boot twrp.img
Edit: Got it working again.
Does anyone have a working TWRP, the version i tried gave a Qualcomm Crashdump mode error. (Havent tried after it worked again).

Why did you install twrp on 11? Just install your patched magisk partition.
All you needed to do was take the update then without booting go to magisk and install after OTA

I tried to boot it, but didnt work.
But that was after i did the OTA from this app, and Magisk to the inactive slot.
Then a reboot and it didnt work, did not boot for some reason (Stuck on the red dot, with 2 white dots moving).
So then i tried the TWRP boot (No flash).
Maybe it was because of some Magisk modules (But it was just Smali and Recording enabler for OOS)
But its working again
But no option to boot TWRP so far when Android 11 is installed?
Thought it was OS independent.
Edit: patched and stock boot.img from Android 11 update from today (OnePlus8ProOxygen_15.E.31_OTA_0310_all_2011010124_d85208) for the OnePlus 8 Pro EU model.

Root Android Nougat 7.1.1 -- [NMF26F] -- SuperSU v2.78 SR5

Did you use everroot option of flashfire? Which is still using su v2.78 SR1? I thought we would have needed SR4 for 7.1.
I need to make some backups and probably will flash this version on Thursday!
Made backups today (23/11) and successfully flash it! OP update with links!
Yes.

I flashed it a few minutes ago over stock 7.0 without wiping data and it seems to be the fastes and smoothest experience I ever had with this device. Can't say much more and didn't try to root, but I switched a few times between my two users und it's still fast and smooth. After switching between my users for two times with 7.0 a reboot was much needed! :fingers-crossed:
Mine is stuck at booting animation. No idea why first time this has happened to me before. Or does it just take like 20 minutes on first boot or what?
I flashed it manually through fastboot like normal.

20 minutes is too long. Have you tried to just power off then on? Sometimes, that's all it takes. It's happened to me but not for this flash.

seems way faster than 7.0 so far.... I just did a full reset on 7.0 a week ago and experience immediate lag after I installed my apps. I flashed the 7.1 dev image today and went through the same process. So far so good. I'll report back after a couple of weeks of usage.
Did anyone enrolled in the beta program get the OTA yet ?
Previously I got it the same day an announcement was made. Nothing received yet. As a matter of fact, I didn't even receive the November security update this month.. Never rooted, never modified.
Had to post. Clean flashed new preview , temp boot of twrp to flash latest SU (SR4) for root and set up as new device. Best google effort yet! No problems adjusting build prop to enable assistant and both Pixel and Nova Launchers are go as is new systemless option adaway. Couldn't help notice how responsive UI is and chrome is stable for me 4-5 tabs in using sites like fark.com and no/very few redraws after pushing the tablet with moderate demands. Looking forward to the December release, noticed USB charging was still fairly slow still, hopefully the batt life is ok too. Go Google, they might just catch up to Craig's AOSP version/kernel performance if they're not careful !
Completed clean flash this preview
Rootless with supersu 2.78 sr4
Disable some app not use, very smooth

Same here. My device is enrolled but no update. I had to manually flash the November update. I did wonder if it was anything to do with flashing custom Roms. I am on full stock Google image but no update yet.
I never flashed a custom rom on my N9 nor has it ever been rooted. Still haven't received Nov update nor the Beta program update.
If you flash a factory image then you are fully stock and you should receive all updates from google.

Just manually flashed the stock preview. Much better than the stock 7.0 which is virtually unusable . This preview is solid and stable..
One of the main benefits of enrolling in the beta program was to be able to get OTA updates and not lose your data. Other devices in the program have received the OTA. Disappointing that the N9 hasn't to this date.

You can flash factory images without affecting your data partition. It is called "dirty flashing" for a reason.
My device has been through loads of updates, + the previous Preview images, by that method!

Flashfire is just a convenient app for doing it (with needing a computer) for people who are rooted.

Don't flash Magisk 17.0+ ***on STOCK ROM***

Updated OP since this thread became useful to track if magisk works with our stock ROM.
The most recent version you can use at the moment is magisk 16.7 and magisk manager 5.8.3.
I suggest that you change the update channel to custom and set the address to 127.0.0.1
For the most recent Magisk version:

mine bootlooped on stock. I'm naive enough to wait for the big update also, I got it from the beta channel. I'll try the stable and see what happens. I was assuming it's the same build
update: it bootloops on stock no matter what channel (stable/beta) you get it from.
I'll try to get a mod to help me change the OP title, I can't seem to be able to do it myself.

Excuse my ignorance but how would reflashing the bootloader help. Doesn't Magisk modify the boot image?
I figure that if flashing the uninstaller and then flashing v17.1 still results in a bootloop I (personally speaking) would go into TWRP and manually remove any Magisk related directories/files, maybe flash the uninstaller again (might catch something I missed), and then dirty flash Dark ROM (fresh boot image). Flash Magisk 17.x afterward.
That said, I am a non-Magisk kind of guy (not present on any ROMs or devices) so I might not know what I'm talking about. [emoji16]

Care to clue me in on those directories/files? I'm having a hard time here, dirty flashing my previous ROM, getting up to setup and then have something fail catastrophically over and over again...

I did not flash Magisk 17.x on Stock B35 (stayed with v16.4), but installing the latest Magisk Manager (v5.9.1) resolved the previous SafetyNet Check errors
Using stock anything above and v17.0 will bootloop using stock,
Just my 2cents, if that your issue just do the following:
-Download v16.7 first in case you don't have it yet, and move it to the SDCard.
* Head back to TWRP
* Flash v16.7 or your preferred release.
* You're good to go.

Not sure to be honest. Last time I had Magisk was around v15.x. When I initially rooted my Moto Magisk was part of the process. Even though the stock ROM is using SuperSU it seems I didn't fully remove Magisk. I have the following remnants visible in TWRP...
/data/magisk
/data/magisk.img
and files in /data/adb/
Not sure why everything is failing so badly on your end. I can't test things on my Axon 7 since I use DualBoot Patcher where Magisk is a no go.
Moto G5S Plus XT1806, MSM-Xtended v2.5 ROM, MultiROM, XDA Legacy
So I have managed to fully restore the phone, including updating Magisk to v17.1 (v16.0 didn't work at all, v14 did).
Apart from Goggle Messages that is, which FC whenever I try to start it (both current and past versions).
I was careful with Magisk in the past, I will be even more so in the future. No dot zero releases for me from now on. Thanks for your tips, people.

New beta version released. Still bootloop

January Update is out.

https://developers.google.com/android/images
picked it up via OTA. They seem to be doing a better job getting OTAs ready right away. $10 says the screen flash is still there.
It supposedly fixes sound in video recordings, so that will be interesting to see. I don't record much video, but when I do, I want it to sound decent.
I just wish they'd fix the Google Assistant to start responding to the Hey Google hotword again. It's super frustrating when a key feature doesn't work.

1. Magisk saved to the phone (Just to be sure, I would confirm you have the one that Topjohn posted with the same version very shortly after originally posting V18 originally since there was an issue installing kernels after his 1st V18. The one on the main Magisk thread is the right/current one)
2. flash-all (without -w)
3. Once system boots back up, shut down, boot back to fastboot with key combo (I do all of my boots to fastboot from full shutdown and with key combo not ADB) and fastboot boot the current (different versions for my two phones) TWRP .img
4. Install Magisk V18
5. Reboot system from TWRP
6. Verify root and SafetyNet
7. Install ElementalX from EX application
8. After kernel forces reboot, just normal maintenance stuff like definitions for AdAway, checking modules, reinstalling BusyBox, installing native tethering prop

It's probably at the bottom of Google's list of priorities. It is hard to replicate, occurs rarely, and doesn't affect performance in any way. I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for a fix any time soon.

It should say Jan 5. Something went wrong, redo it and make sure you redownload the Jan update. Feels like maybe you didn't clean up or grabbed the wrong image.

Why does it matter if you reboot-bootloader or using the "key combo"? It shouldn't matter.

I don't know, but I know there was some wonky behavior in TWRP a couple of months ago that only showed if you used ADB reboot or TWRP reboot. My only guess is that something gets cleared from memory during a full power down and that it simply looks like the difference is in the electronic vs. key combo method when it is actually in the power down function.
I think you are right. I talked about this on another thread because I have placed a LatineIME folder in my system/app folder, changed permissions, rebooted and used AOSP keyboard fine with every other update until Jan. Now, I place the folder in my system/app, change permissions, reboot and it is gone. I have tested this on three different phones, og pixel, Pixel 3, and Moto G5 Plus running custom Pie rom with Jan update. All three have the same problem.

Which Rom is the best for the Mate 10 Pro

Hey Guys,
what do you think is the best costum rom (stable) for the Mate 10 pro?
Is it possible to flash it with Pie 9.0.161?

Just wait for the ota update to pie.
that's definitely a worse rom. i'm on it right now.

If you have the Pie update from firmware finder it's an approved ROM unless you have a modified recovery it checks and you wouldn't be able to install it if it wasn't approved so you probably have the latest approved ROM

Hi! Quick question. My BLA-L09 is on build number 8.0.0.131(c782). I'm rooted with Magisk via Pretoriano's TWRP using the all in one tool. I can't receive firmware updates because of this (they fail to install).
If I update to Pie, will I be able to root again with Magisk? How can make this update? I suppose I would need stock recovery back and don't know where to get it from it how to flash it. It was my first time doing this on a Huawei, I'm used to Samsung devices. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!

Nope, you won't. Any version from 8.0.0.146 and above will contain the new bootloader which won't let you unlock it or install twrp, magisk or whatever, most probably you will brick your phone like I did.
You'll be a lot safer to stay on what you're on. Huawei did a nifty development to make life miserable to anyone which likes to customize their phone. Maybe they should be called Huapple from now on...
I was in a similar situation as you, 141 if I remember correctly. Installed Xposed via magisk, got a bootloop, did a system restore via erecovery, got it working again and lost magisk/root so thought it would be the time to do the ota, didn't know about the bootloader change so found I was on emui 9, tried to install twrp but that bricked the phone. So I tried to do the system restore via erecovery again, but that didn't work.
After that tried every possible way (inc. paying funkyhw etc.) to recovery the phone, no way. If you try to downgrade it to a version before 146 it will hardbrick leaving you with a paperweigth.
So if I were you, I wouldn't touch a thing. I gave up and am waiting for my Oneplus 6, much better phone for this stuff.

Nope, you won't. Any version from 8.0.0.146 and above will contain the new bootloader which won't let you unlock it or install twrp, magisk or whatever, most probably you will brick your phone like I did.
You'll be a lot safer to stay on what you're on. Huawei did a nifty development to make life miserable to anyone which likes to customize their phone. Maybe they should be called Huapple from now on...
I was in a similar situation as you, 141 if I remember correctly. Installed Xposed via magisk, got a bootloop, did a system restore via erecovery, got it working again and lost magisk/root so thought it would be the time to do the ota, didn't know about the bootloader change so found I was on emui 9, tried to install twrp but that bricked the phone.

Thank you for the info! And what about staying on my current bootloader and flash a custom ROM on my already installed TWRP?

There is a ResurectionRemix rom that can be used for that. Just search for RR-O-v6.0.0-20180402-bkl-OpenKirin.zip it should work as this one's flashable by twrp. I haven't tried it so can't tell if it does. I have the file but I don't know if it's complete as it only contains system.img which seems strange as normally there would also be a boot.img or at least a kernel.img

No issues installing my wife's P3 with flash-all (minus -w), rooted with Magisk 19.1 and TWRP 3.3.0-0 fully installed using Advanced > Install Recovery Ramdisk method.

Could you give me some more details on what you did to install Magisk? For the first time with my P3 I cannot get anything to work. I flashed the May update minus -w, but every method of installing Magisk 19.1 that I've tried ends up with a bootloop.

1) flash-all (minus -w). Phone reboots to system automatically.
2) shut down and boot to BL
3) fastboot boot twrp-3.3.0-0-blueline.img (be sure to have a copy of the .img file on your phone)
4) install twrp using Advanced > Install Recovery Ramdisk > twrp-3.3.0-0-blueline.img
5) boot to system
6) shut down and boot to BL>recovery (TWRP loads)
7) install Magisk-v19.1 (I did already have 19.1 installed on this phone via Magisk Manager update/Magisk update from before the May image came out in case it matters, so if necessary install 18.1 and then update to 19.1 with Magisk Manager)
8) reboot to system
9) confirm root and install kernel (for me that was ElementalX automated install using EX Kernel Manager app but installing the kernel by going back to TWRP and flashing should do the same)
The two things I might be doing different than others are not using ADB to get back to BL or recovery (I always use the key combo) and booting to system before next step (I don't stack my TWRP/Magisk/kernel installs). Hope this helps.
Whew! Back in business. Thanks!

That's cool. Which part was the culprit?

Well, I don't really know. I initially did what I always do: extract the new boot.img from the update, patch it with MM, run flash-all without -w, let the update finish, reboot and flash the patched boot to boot_a and boot_b. That bootlooped. I flashed stock boot.img and ran like that for a day. Next I booted (but didn't install) TWRP, and tried to install 19.1 (bootloop), and 18.1 (wouldn't install). I decided to try to downgrade to the April update and did flash-all from there (without -w). Big mistake, because then it stuck on the G screen and wouldn't boot at all. I ultimately was able to flash back to the May update, get it to boot, then followed your directions. I did have to install 18.1 first, because even after following your directions, 19.1 still bootlooped when installed from TWRP. MM was able to update to it fine, though, from 18.1. Who knows what the problem really was.

I'd just be spit balling at this point like you are, but at least you are up and running. I do think there is possibly something going on with Magisk going from 18.1 to 19.1 without Manager doing the back end work (even if it happened previously) since Magisk still does retain some data even if root is lost during the upgrade. There are certainly some changes that occured between 18.1 and 19.0 beta since coming from 18.1 you would need to redo your Magisk hide check marks. Either that or using MM to patch boot may have completely changed.

I probably just had something in some weird state, because I ran 18.1, 19.something beta, 19.something canary, then back to 19.1 stable when it came out. I forgot, I also ran the uninstaller at some point in my previous attempts.
I have a PIXEL 3 (Bought directly from Google) and AT&T is my carrier in Central VA. Been trying for a couple of days to get the May update, but nothing avail. Something I should be concerned about?
Same question

I was coming to ask the same question, only I am in WA and have T-mobile. Stock, not rooted. Not had an issue before.
Same here. New P3 during April, so awaiting first security update for my new device. Carrier is AT&T, but why would that matter, right? Just seems strange having to wait. I got the impression that monthly updates for Pixels would come out the same day they were announced as being available. Live and learn I guess.
Finally popped this evening (5/16/2019). No clue why the delay.

I have a Pixel 3 on Google Fi and still haven't gotten the update. Contacted support yesterday and they couldn't find anything wrong. They "promised" I'd get it. Always gotten them within a day or two before.
I guess I just never looked into this before since I'm a new Pixel user or I'm just naive but I assumed when I got a Pixel phones updates would not have to be pushed through my carrier anymore? No May update here on my stock Pixel 3 on T-Mobile.
Always get OTA on the day of release, stock phone, T-Mobile, the Netherlands.
(Pixel didn't launch in the Netherlands, I got it from Germany)
Just installed the may update OTA.
Anyone else having issues with apps accessing the gallery. Both WhatsApp and stock messenger now taking ages to display the thumbnails of the images and videos in my gallery when I add them to a message.
ok could I get some hints here on how to update?
I have rooted and I have magisk.
