I want do clean install so I evrything wipe expect user data. And there problems started. I haven't installed twrp, this warning shows up and i can't root device on 4.0.2 and 4.1.6. Aslo i can't install roms by sideload (?)
I tried full wipe data - don't work. I was looking in the forum Oneplus any tutorial didin't work.
I tried this tutorial https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3t/how-to/fix-dm-verity-warning-final-fix-4-0-3-t3555094 to remove warning. It works but after update from 4.0.2 to 4.1.6 warning screen again came back. It started after updating 4.1.6 to 4.1.7.
If you can slowe this problem I will be grateful. And i sorry for my engilsh

If you want a "clean" install, user data is the most important thing to wipe; as it is the mostly likely thing to cause problem (on a new ROM, etc.).
Not related to the other issues you mentioned. But important to note, anyway.

I'm confused. If you haven't installed TWRP, how you are trying to root? You need TWRP, in order to root.
Also, sideload can be more problematic than just flashing a ROM in TWRP. My suggestion, would be to stop messing around, and just flash TWRP.
* I wanted to write that After installing update 4.1.6 as well as on the factory as a TWRP warning appears.
*On TWRP can't root device, TWRP think the su ZIP archives od broken.
*And TWRP by bluetooth Spark can't decrypt device (my old password od bot working )
Device works fine by In addition to the aforementioned problems
Hi,
As I have to send back my 3T for RMA, I spendt almost two nights with reading lots of guides about how to remove that red warning. The usual methods (flashing 4.0.2 FW and trying "dm_verity_disable/enable" with fastboot or reboot with "enforce_dm_verity", etc..) did not work at all. I ended up by this way:
- With 4.1.6 ROM flash TWRP (boot into bootloader, "fastboot flash recovery <filename>"
- In bootloader "fastboot format userdata" (this will remove encryption)
- Reboot to recovery (don't let the OS boot, otherwise you can start again)
- Flash SuperSU 2.79 (don't ask why, I guess this is needed for the encryption removal as well)
- Reboot to OS, check that encrytion is removed (in security settings, at the bottom you should see "Encrypt phone" instead of "Phone encrypted")
- Reboot recovery, flash OOS 3.5.4
- Reboot to OS, now the red warning should be removed
- Encrypt your phone (optional, if you like that way)
- Download 4.1.6 OOS image on the phone and use System update in the settings with local update to get back to 4.1.6
You should have 4.1.6 now without the red warning. If you want to get rid of the orange warning as well, you can flash the stock recovery and lock the bootloader back.
After that my phone was like an original one... With leaving some of these steps out, I always got failed..
I wrote this by memory (performed that yesterday), so it's possible I forgot something, but feel free to write a PM and I try to help. Of course the process will wipe all your data, so backup everything you need...

TWRP for Oneplus 3T
SuperSU 2.79 for Oneplus 3T
After flashing su zip I want to check if I have encrypted phone and boot frozen.
So I go to recovery and install 4.1.6 rom and i get information "Error opening: '/data/system/ndebugsocet' no such file or directory"
Again something went wrong
Edit: Somehow I just install 4.0.2 (again bootloop), and stock recovery (i booted to recovery 2 times and on second try recovery ask me for password(?) so i wiped device). Everything was fine expect dm verity. At this point I give up. So having everything stock i just use ota (4.0.2>4.1.6) and this was probobly the key for success.
In the evening I will try root my device and see if everything is good.

Have you flashed TWRP and 3.5.4 first? Have you used bootloader with "fastboot format userdata" before flashing supersu (remembering that after this, normal boot should not start before supersu is flashed)?
Also I am not sure if flashing 3.5.4 image will update the firmware as well, but for safety, you might try to flash that as well: Oneplus 3T Firmware collection
I didn't flash 3.5.4 at all, just 4.0.2. I used "fastboot format userdata" in bootloader. And then there was a problem (boot loop.). And after that i booted into recovery(I had then stock) asked me for password )At this point I did not have any) so I wiped my device again (recovery suggest it). The device turned on normally, but still i had dm verity. Finally I updated by OTA to 4.1.6 and dm verity screen was gone.
At this point I install TWRP and rooted, without any problem.
So i think fix for this situation was going back to full stock and use OTA. (Again sorry for my English, I trying my best)
Hello
I was on B180 (PRA-LX1C432) rooted with magisk
No updates available in settings/update firmware, but connecting to PC HiSuite B194 appeared (which seems to be for Honor 8 lite by the way). It downloaded it, pushed it to phe phone, but when rebooting it goes to twrp... so obviously I'm still on B180
I imagine we have to flash back stock recovery before updating ? And then twrp again, magisk flash, etc ?
Thanks !
About OTA over magisk I found that on P9 forum:
1) unroot by Magisk Uninstaller, find the download link in the post https://forum.xda-developers.com/sho...63&postcount=1
2) flash from TWRP original stock boot img
3) wipe Dalwik and Cache from TWRP
3) flash from fastboot original stock recovery
4) let it make OTA update but select in the System Update settings to use Full (not differential) update - it will not delete your apps and settings
maybe the safest way indeed...
But as I "catch" the full ota, maybe I can use fastboot to flash only system and boot, and the reflash magisk to patch new boot img ?
anyone ?
Nobody updated after root ??
Ok, this is what I did and happened:
- In TWRP, flash magisk uninstaller script: ERROR 1. After reboot magisk was still here. That was a bad start...
- So I opened magisk app, click Uninstall and then Complete Uninstall. After that I made a reboot as asked, and device rebooted twice.
- Then, went to download mode and flashed stock recovery. And reboot.
- Then went to settings/updates/download latest full ota. It downloaded but refused to start the install process claiming to free up more than 900MB... Nothing on my internal sdcard so I had to uninstall some apps... cool !
- Then it reboot and installed the update
- First boot took a while, I still have "this device cannot be trusted" on start, and OEM unlock in settings is grayed and ON, so I think the bootloader is still unlocked
- Theme and wallpapers were reset with the update
For now I don't have flashed back twrp neither magisk .
In the meantime have you flashed TRWP and Migistik ? And again: do you have still to update your signature or something went wrong in installing fw B194.
Lastly: what do you mean by "went to download mode and flashed"...
Hello guys,
Yesterday I flashed my Mi 8 to get root permissions with Global V10.2.1.0 with Magisk 17.3, including Disable DM-Verity and Force Encrypt. Everything was working perfect, Magisk notified me about updating to v18, so I did, and MIUI notified me about an update (if I'm not mistaken, for 10.2.2.0).
MIUI downloaded the update and asked me to reboot to install it. It booted into TWRP and did the whole installation, apparently without issues, but then I restarted and it goes straight to TWRP.
I tried clearing cache/dalvik but nothing.
Every time I reboot and gets to TWRP, when I press the menu button to see the log, the last lines say:
Full SELinux support is present.
set_policy_failed:/datamisc
I don't know if this is relevant, but seeing a "failed" is not nice.
As an observation, the folder /data/system is full of folders, but the /system directly in root folder only has /usr/share/zoneinfo (I don't know if this is normal or not),
If the system updated to 10.2.2.0, would flashing to 10.2.1.0 set the ARB or it's safe for me to flash it again? Any ideas?
Thanks!
You need to flash Magisk again. Installing an OTA means you flash the stock boot.img so flash dm verity and magisk.

Thanks for the answer! Do I need to wipe DATA too?
EDIT: I just flashed DM-Verity and then Magisk and all good. No need to wipe data. Thanks!!
So I've used TWRP r16 and it throws an "Image not signed or corrupt" error as suggested by other users I ignored it, but everytime I reboot to system and try to get to recovery "no command" show's up meaning TWRP was replaced by stock recovery all help will be appreciated.
Thanks

Hey thanks that worked.
But everytime I boot to system and boot to twrp the data gets encrypted and I can't access the files do you happen to know any solution for this?

If you are on stock Rom, according to my knoweldge it is not possible to remove encryption, if you format your date in twrp for removing encryption then reboot to system you can see that the phone is again encrypted.
But in custom roms this doesnt happen.

You don't have to flash Magisk after flashing TWRP. The two are unrelated.
After flashing TWRP you have to boot into recovery, not system. Once TWRP was started, you can reboot into system. No need for Magisk (unless you want Magisk anyway).

It will not work in stock ROM, if you flash a custom rom there is no need to flash Magisk.
You should flash Magisk or custom kernel after flashing TWRP otherwise it will be erased.
Google about TWRP erasing after reboot you should get too many posts regarding this

I am using stock ROM, and yes, also Magisk (installed later). IIRC Magisk is not needed for TWRP to work. When I receive the next OTA notification, I will test this.
The thread you are referring to is for a OnePlus 3T. For our device this is the thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g5s-plus/development/recovery-twrp-3-1-1-r7-t3694910.
Since there is no official TWRP for the Moto G5S Plus, I took the following text from the TWRP page for the Moto G5S.
Note many devices will replace your custom recovery automatically during first boot. To prevent this, use Google to find the proper key combo to enter recovery. After typing fastboot reboot, hold the key combo and boot to TWRP. Once TWRP is booted, TWRP will patch the stock ROM to prevent the stock ROM from replacing TWRP. If you don't follow this step, you will have to repeat the install.

Instead of that you can also use fastboot reboot-bootloader, and then from the bootloader start recovery.

Two days ago I received a notification for an OTA update, containing the August 2019 security patches.
After going back to stock ROM, installing all the updates up to the latest, I installed TWRP. After booting into recovery, and then into system, and recovery again, TWRP was gone. Strange, I don't remember this happening before. Maybe I always installed Magisk before booting into system.
Bottom line: you were right, I was wrong. Thanks for pointing it out.

As like you said this is the first time in my life i need to flash magisk to stick twrp.
I usualy doesn't use root or custom roms, install twrp, remove unnecessary apps from stock system, replace host files with adaway hosts, replace or edit gps config files. and continue using stock.
This is the main routine from Android 1.5
(Samsung spica (i think it was the first Android phone from Samsung)).
It may be due to security reason stock kernel or system delete twrp.
When installing magisk it patch stock boot image, that may be the reason of twrp remains after flashing magisk.
Hello forum, I have been trying to root my motorola G6..
After much struggle, getting stuck in a boot loop and other issues I finally have restored stock roms and now have build PPS29-118-15-11 installed. So at least the phone works again My bootloader is unlocked.
But I still want to root it.
I think I understand the procedure well enough, but I am unsure of the correct/best versions I need for the ROMS/boot, Magisk, and TWRP.
ROMS/boot:
I found a youtube with instructions for updating Android v9
But I haven't tried it as this recommends a boot img:
OPS27.104-15-10_no-verity_boot.img
OPS27.104-15-10_no-verity_boot.img | by dejello for Moto G6
Download GApps, Roms, Kernels, Themes, Firmware, and more. Free file hosting for all Android developers.
androidfilehost.com
I am reluctant to use the above as it looks to be a downgrade from my current version 29-118-15-11.
Also, I thought that the filename prefix "O" indicated oreo instead of "P" for pie? So would this be a version 8 file?
TWRP:
Similarly, I am not sure if I am using the right, or best TWRP version. I currently have twrp-v3.2.3-ali.img
I flash this (with fastboot) and it works but shortly after I encounter the "no command" error (when booting to recovery) and I have to redo it. I am NOT overwriting it with a stock recovery.img.
I have also run into the "encryption password" problem, where I am unable to provide one to decrypt the data partition. So I can't backup the data with twrp (something I really would like to do).
Magisk
I have Magisk-23-0.zip
But I saw a post from brunogroa that recommends installing Magisk 19 and updating it to 23 later. Is this something that is required or can I just install v23?
So, I am looking for the correct versions for ROM, Magisk and TWRP to use, given that I have installed PPS29-118-15-11
Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
Well I finally have it I think. I noticed a comment in
[GUIDE][ROOT][Moto G6][ALI] TWRP, Root, and Magisk installation guide. by djello
"(you may not need a modified boot image for Magisk)"
When using PIE instead of OREO.
Being an optimist, I gave it a try and it worked... I installed Magisk and was able to verify root access using the Root Checker Basic App. Kept stock boot img.
This is probably not too amazing for the old hands but us newbies need a break every now and them
So in the end, all I had to do was:
(0) Unlock bootloader
(1) Install stock PPS29-118-15-11
Done earlier with another version of twrp.
Install TWRP 3.5.2
(2) fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.5.2_9-0-ali.img
(3) Use twrp to install Magisk
adb push Magisk-v23-0.zip /tmp
Boot phone into recovery and use twrp to install Magisk
(4) Boot the phone into System and verify Magisk is there and use Root Checker App to confirm I am now rooted.
Issues:
I noticed that a security update for
PPS29-118-15-11-5 failed to apply.
The phone boots into recovery mode and asks for the decrypt password. I don't know the password to decrypt data and how to proceed from here.
I suspect that if I flash the stock recovery img the security update might work. If anyone knows please comment ; I will research this also and maybe just try it.

I am stuck in a similar position.
SOLVED IT!!! Followed all of the steps that you posted except I installed Magisk with the patch method because I couldn't get the zip file to push onto the device. Kept getting a read only error, maybe because it wasn't rooted?
Anyway, I am rooted now!!!
