I received an update in Magisk just a while. Anx opening up i have found that my magisk is not not installed and so the root is gone.
I clicked on install button, it says Install with zip and another option is install with patched boot.
I clicked on install with zip, it downloaded a zip in download folder, but as we dont have recovery now i dont know what to do with that zip. or should i go for patched boot img. and if yes? then how? thanks!
I had it too and root was detected after I rebooted my phone.
did u update? and how?

I lose my root, magisk don't update, and rebooting don't solved.
I'm getting tired of A2.

Just use as is, flash with fastboot, or patch the unpatched one with magisk manager and flash that. More wasn't needed on my side.

No the patched boot image already is like installing magisk. Or to put it differently that's what happens when you install it the normal way so all you need is to flash the boot image and have magisk manager installed

ok now as its stands, just flash the boot image and then open up magisk. ( i have already magisk installed , but as unrooted, and it asks to update)
Can someone upload the stock boot img from the August security patch so I can patch it with the updated magisk v17 because I have the same problem?

With Flashify you can update your device, install OTA updates also official update. You can flash img files like recovery, Zip files. Also, you can install twrp recovery, cwm recovery, philz recovery directly on your phone. Flashify is required root permission to flash the zip, images so start the process after rooting the device.

If you already have root and needs to go back to stock rom - download the Stock Boot Image
I already downloaded the Firmware but how can i go back? Just by flashing the boot.img from the Stock Firmware ?.
Yeah, since you only modified the boot.img right?
So just flash the stock boot.img
But the boot.img must be from the same rom version your currently on.
Yes just patched the Boot.img in the past via magisk
Can i just normally Update the Firmware after getting back to Stock ?
Yeah should be fine.
Do i need to uninstall magisk or something else Like this before ?
You can do both if you want, since uninstalling magisk just restores your stock boot.img backup but i recommend using magisk uninstaller zip if you have it with you.
After using magisk uninstaller zip no need to install boot.img again.
So you can just flash that.
I dont have the magisk uninstaller ZIP :/
Okay.... What is your magisk version.
23.0 the newest one ( i dont have any custom Recovery installed )
i flashed the rom and all is working fine, phone is unrooted and magisk uninstalled, thank you very much for your help have a nice day

Leaving this here as i ended up boot looping from installing custom kernel, and it being a new release i was pulling my hair trying to figure this out.
Flashed through fastboot with "fastboot flash boot_a XX.img, fastboot flash boot_b XX.img"
Magisk included as thats the one i ended up using.
Save yourself the headache if you are planning on installing a custom kernel for now, and wait till the kinks have been ironed out.
I found a workaround. Firstly go to fastboot mode and flash stable.img from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...os11-open-beta-2-3-and-stable-latest.4316563/ and boot into recovery. Now download TWRP and magisk and transfer to internal storage. Now flash TWRP and then download full OTA from here And put in storage https://www.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6-6t-oxygenos-11-1-1-1/
and flash it. Don't reboot once it says done. Go back and re install twrp.zip. Now reboot. Go to recovery and install magisk and clear dalvik. Now reboot and enjoy.
Thanks to
KizuYuna and Skanda Hazarika for providing stable.img and OTA respectively.

Thats what worked for me, had to improvise as the OTA was brand new when I installed it, and bricked it with a new kernel, and had tried to fix it by flashing an old boot img but ended up complicating things even more.
You could always grab the stock 11.1.1.1 boot img and patch it in magisk manager yourself but procedure would be the same in fastboot

This one works great. Thank you.
The attached file in #13 above worked, thank you!
In case someone would like to now "How to do it" until next time this is how I did it:
How to install OOS update and root via created patch.img file in the Magisk app
1. Download the full version eg the OOS 11.x.x.x.zip file on the computer, and copy the file to the phone's internal memory as well.
2. Run the payload_dump program (https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1899786940962605222) to extract a boot.img from the computer. You have to extract the payload.bin file from the OOS 11.x.x.x.zip file and place it in the Input folder, then run the exe-file and wait for payload to complete, then copy over the boot.img file found in the Output folder to the phone.
3. Go to Magisk app on the phone, click on the top install "Magisk", click "Select and patch a file", search for the boot.img file you created.
4. Now, Magisk will create a patched magic.img file from the boot.img file (can be called eg magic_patched-23000_xt8QR.img)
5. Copy the magisk_patched-xxxxxxx.img to your computer's "Root folder" where you have stored ADB files, etc
6. Now install the OOS 11.x.x.x zip file (should be in the mobile's Internal memory) via Settings> System> System updates and the "gear"> Local upgrade
7. When done, DO NOT reboot but go directly to Fastboot mode + connect cable to the computer
8. On the computer, type from your "Root folder":
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched-xxxxxxx.img
9. Reboot the phone - you are rooted!

I'm running NE2215_11_C.26. Its rooted. I let the OTA updater do its thing but it just gives me a generic error message with no information about what is wrong. Is it because I'm rooted? Could it be a region problem since this is a North American device in India?

Easiest / Fastest way to solve this issue is to unroot fully through Magisk (disable all modules too), reboot. Take the update. Reroot with booting a patched boot image. That will always be the most fool proof way to update this phone, even cross region from my knowledge.
if you are rooted you don't have to update via OTA but you have to use localupdate.apk after disabling magisk modules and uninstalling images from magisk! operations: disable magisk modules and reboot/uninstall magisk image/oxygen updater download OTA to root directory/install localupdate.apk and update from there without reboot/done update open magisk and click install reboot after OTA!

I have a patched boot.img that I used to root C.26. Will it work on this one too? What's the location of the boot.img on the phone? I could get that via file manager since I'm rooted. Does the android 12 localupdate work for android 13 as well?
What's the latest full OTA version? Does payload dumper still work? I'm going to try to get the stock boot image just in case.

Best not to mismatch revisions. You can find a pre patched NE2115 C.30 in @g96818's thread. Otherwise you can make your own.
I personally pull them from the NE2213 full zips (since we don't get full releases at NE2215 anymore) and patch that via magisk, it works fine cross region as long as you ONLY boot it once for the magisk install. Never had any issues with this method.
How do I make my own boot.img? Does the payload dumper still work? The go version does not work with deltas. While I can use the easier methods I want to try making my own boot.img as a learning exercise.

I, personally, extract boot.img from NE2213 full Zip using FBE. This is the ONLY thing to use this tool for. Then transfer that to phone, disable all modules, unroot, reboot. Take the next OTA, reboot. Then go into Magisk, patch the new boot image you xfer'd earlier, copy that back to computer. Use ADB Fastboot to BOOT the image, and finally go into Magisk for a direct install. Reboot, and you're done.
I used this to install lineage and it worked out great – the tablet runs a lot better.

If you originally patched the Samsung firmware and rooted under OneUI, that same version of Magisk will show up once you flash any GSIs.
Besides that, there's no other way that I know of since you can't simply sideload Magisk through TWRP for this device
You'll have to start over by patching the firmware and flashing through Odin to get back to stock. From there, set up Magisk like you'd normally do. Once that's done, you can proceed and use the same guide to get LOS back and be fully rooted with Magisk

Simply installing the Magisk APK is not the same. To install Magisk completely to your system you must patch the image.
For this device, you need to complete the patching process first with Samsung's firmware under OneUI. Once that's done, you can return back to LOS and a patched version of Magisk will be waiting for you to install

Yes, but with stock, your only option is to patch a file. But with LOS you also have the option to install direct. Choose that and it will root.

I didn't root initially when installing LOS. So it appears I need to restart the process, which isn't that big of a deal. But I don't know how to get back to stock to perform the patch. It's been almost a year since I originally installed LOS so I'm a little rusty with how everything works again

Again!!!! There is no need for that. LOS has replaced stock. Just do as I said, run Magisk but instead of choosing a file, choose the DIRECT install option. LOS doesn't need to be patched and stock didn't need to be rooted before flashing LOS. I just happened that I did root stock first but that was just to test if it worked with the latest stock ROM. But there is no need to do it if you are going to flash a GSI.

If you are only seeing "Select a file", something is wrong but it has nothing to do with needing to patch. Try uninstalling magisk and then flashing the apk with TWRP.

Use the "Install" button to flash as if it were a zip file.

I didn't find the apk file in the tablet when I push the Install button in the twrp... .Should the file be in a specific path?

So long as you know where it is, you should be able to browse to it. You might have to "Select storage" to switch between Internal and Micro SD. If it doesn't show, try renaming it from .apk to .zip.

You have to rename it as a ZIP, you cannot flash APK files

Not necessarily so. I've installed apk files in TWRP many times. It depends upon the version of TWRP. Some will, some won't. Most later versions will. I have v 3.7.0_12.2 on mine and it installs the apk just fine.

Just curious, what other apps can you do this besides Magisk?
