Similar to the previous threads for OnePlus 5, OnePlus 5T or OnePlus 6, here are the necessary packages to unbrick/revive a hard bricked OnePlus 7 Pro.
The following hardware revisions are supported:
GM1910: China
GM1911: India
GM1913: Europe
GM1917: Global/US Unlocked
Download: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=294744

In every case, it is possible to upgrade to latest OxygenOS by using full signed zip from this thread via Local Upgrade.
With the device powered off, hold Volume Up & Volume Down buttons to force it to boot to Qualcomm download mode.
Use the most updated signed driver (2.1.2.2 at this moment) to avoid potential issues..
For detailed procedures, please consult the linked threads above. There is no reason to repeat the same thing again.
Make sure the path of the extracted files doesn't contain any non-English character. The tool isn't unicode aware.
Source:
HydrogenOS package: 人艱不拆 (OnePlus China forum thread), @trollavin & @Some_Random_Username for the help in mirroring
OxygenOS (EU) package: @MrVoshel
OxygenOS (global) package: @Lucifer6
Reserved for future.
Thank you for this!!
Doesn't this leave you with a Chinese modem (limited LTE bands and roaming configs?) and critical partitions? Wouldn't an international or European tool be more suitable considering that Oxygen zips may not overwrite everything? Or is this just a temporary guide with what we have?

Temp? yes and no, I would say. Better than warranty R&D in days no phone for use.
As far as you can revive the phone from QDL9008 back to HOS/OOS, you now have a chance Again to switch over whatever ROM or OS you want later on.

Please help me, I failed pretty hard and bricked my phone.
I rooted my phone with stock recovery using a patched magisk boot image and all went fine.
Today, I deviced to temporarily boot into twrp to check it out, so I booted into fastboot and used "fastboot boot twrp.img"
and booted into system. I was confused and rebooted but now I was stuck in stock recovery. So I completely flashed TWRP
on boot_a and boot_b and into TWRP I rooted my device. But even now I am always bootlooping into TWRP and can't
get my phone to boot into system.
I tried using the unbrick tool but my device won't show up on my computer, even with the driver installed.
I'm screwed, can someone help?
Can I somehow reflash the stock recovery and revert back to my patched boot image?

what is your device OOS 9.5.3/4/5/6 ?
flash the co-responding stock boot.img from twrp with magisk zip together, and see if you can boot

Thanks for your replies! I was on OOS 9.5.5 and I tried flashing the twrp/magisk zips but that didn't work either. I also tried applying the stock boot.img to the active slot, but still got the recovery bootloop.
So as my last hope, I wiped all data in recovery mode, rebooted to fastboot and sideloaded the complete stock image from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-7-pro/how-to/rom-stock-fastboot-roms-oneplus-7-pro-t3931424
I reconfigured my phone from scratch, rooted with the patched boot image like before and everythings works now. Guess I will not bother with TWRP any time soon.

When I reboot into edl mode, it recognizes the "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008", but then 10 seconds later, the phone automatically boots the the battery display, which disables edl. The same this happens whether I use the vol up+down and plug in, or `adb reboot edl`.
Edit: "How I learned to stop worrying and risk a brick"
Selecting the right COM and hitting start in MSMtool in that 10 second window kept it in edl mode for the duration of the flash.

TWRP Backup - https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6t/how-to/dp3-twrp-backup-t-mobile-magisk-t3952304
But you need to download the the QB3 update zip and upack the payload.bin with a payload dumper
Make sure your device is on international and unlocked of course
Boot into Twrp recovery and copy the system.img and vendor.img onto device
Flash both images in respective partitions and on both A and B slot
Wipe data after flashing and reboot into bootloader
From directory of the rest of IMG you've extracted you'll want use fastboot and flash:
fastboot flash boot_a boot.img
fastboot flash boot_b boot.img
fastboot flash dtbo_a dtbo.img
fastboot flash dtbo_b dtbo.img
fastboot flash vbmeta_a vbmeta.img
fastboot flash vbmeta_b vbmeta.img
Then reboot and done
Don't delete files just yet
Haven't tried but certain you can root this way:
After you've setup your device you can download magisk manager. Select the boot.img on you pc, in your dump folder, and copy it to your device again. In the magisk manager patch the boot image you copied, and copy that onto your PC
Now boot into bootloader and use command
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img
Or if that doesn't work try
fastboot flash boot_a magisk_patched.img
fastboot flash boot_b magisk_patched.img
And if device doesn't boot for any reason just flash back the stock boot.img
Enjoy
-About TWRP- (from my knowledge)
DON'T FLASH TWRP
I think recovery is running in boot.img now I'm not sure
But it seems we may need to patch the bootloader to have the recovery in there
Ive unpack both boot IMG from dp3 and Twrp IDK if they're made different but they look different unfortunately I don't understand enough to patch but hopefully that helps idk
So I wouldn't try flashing or booting into recovery it'll just freeze and flashing will mess up the whole device and you'll have to use msmtool again and redo process

It's not about patching.
Flash stock boot.img to both slots as I'm guessing you aren't sure which one your on.
I'll give u a twrp that works for qb3 also proper instructions.
T-Mobile version downside is we can't flash ota and we can't boot qb3 wth fastboot twrp so flashing the twrp.img now replaces kernel in boot.img.
Thanks, so I'll have to use the "flash recovery Twrp.img" command now?
Or, is it a custom one Twrp only for dp3?
And thank you by the way I'll probably post a guide using a backup from Twrp then
And I'm aware of checking the active slot with a command but I have trouble switching to the opposite after rebooting because of set_active command maybe I'm doing something wrong

Our recovery is built in boot.img.
Uploading now
---------- Post added at 10:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:42 PM ----------
Boot to fastboot
fastboot getvar all
See which slot is active.
If it's slot a then this
fastboot flash boot_a qb3-twrp.img
If it's slot b then this
fastboot flash boot_b qb3-twrp.img
Once flashed choose boot recovery and once it boots u can flash stock boot.img back then flash magisk 19.4 while in twrp.
U must use USB drive decryption isn't working yet. Or adb sideload.
I've only tested this on T-Mobile version running qb3.

Not yet, but if you flash the stock boot image after then would there be any point in flashing the patch boot before hand? And, what I was looking for is a more permanent solution. So, that it'll boot and you can go to Twrp whenever without having to use a PC.
If that's the case and it works then nevermind but I remember and if I'm mistaken that, even if you flash the Twrp installer it'll still boot loop after the installation.
If that's still a problem maybe someone more skilled than I, or even you, can patch the stock bootimg themselves. And, eveb get it working for the future time on Q
Maybe unpacking and looking inside the boot.img and Twrp.img, the repacking with the proper adjustments

I'm aware of the permanent solution your looking for. This is the first step. With magisk installed u can simply use the installer in my android file host by selecting modules push the + sign and find the installer then without rebooting install magisk direct install. Then u can boot to recovery with advanced reboot menu. U can also just do everything in twrp. After u flash twrp.img .

Just like my guide last month on OnePlus forums as I am jacksummers, even if u do this we still have no calling ability whatsoever. SMS is barely working and it still blows for us. I have been trying everything to get the whole thing to not only flash and install but be able to boot with no hardware mismatch... It won't work unless we can resign the firmware with OnePlus signing keys after changing everything to say "single" still. Since we cannot change the phone. There is still something in the phone that comes back as op6tsingle

Yeah u need to flash every other partition in the bin dump. If it tells u u cannot bc it's a critical partition then ya can't. Once u do so u will have full function and on calls. It's basically everything in the payload.bin but abl,xbl, hyp, and a few others that tell ya they're critical partitions. Once u do that everything works Perfectly.. my main issue was the call issue u described..but do as I suggest and all will work

Not sure try "fastboot oem lock" in the bootloader after
Hello! Hoping someone can help and guide me in fixing my A2's bootloop. I already searched many forums online, but still no luck.
I flashed a permissiver_v5.zip in Evolution X Rom hoping that it will solve the random reboots, and I got bootloop. I successfully flashed the July stock rom through Miflash, hoping to boot into system, but still bootloop. I flashed the stock firmware and persist zip too in TWRP, but I also got mount persist error. I also need to use fastboot boot twrp.img to get into Twrp since it will disappear after clicking reboot recovery. I tried EDL, but then I got not enough storage error in Miflash.
Hopefully somebody can help me with steps!
LATEST UPDATE:
With the help of KevMetal, I can now use my phone after a week of being hardbricked. At first, my device can't boot to the bootloader or recovery, so what I did was to press the volume down and power button for some time and my phone was detected by the PC. So my device booted to EDL by itself, no need to open the phone. Then I used the 2018 version of MiFlash Tool and flashed the V.10.0.17 of stock Pie ROM from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-...-t3824849/amp/
After that, I flashed the persist.zip provided by KevMetal (browse in this thread) in recovery since I can't sideload the zip, and it worked fine. I then booted to system and finally there was no bootloop.
I then noticed that the IMEI was gone, so I tried to fix through some guides online but this one worked for me. https://medium.com/@shekhawatkoki/fi...1-2ed533548d32

you are messing up ..stop ..
1.boot into fastboot
2. flash stock rom with miflash
3. boot back to fastboot
4. download orange fox or pitch black recovery that actually supports persist flashing
5. join global mi a2 telegram group download relevant persist like if mi a2 or mi x6 and on android 9 or 10
6. put it in adb folder
7. boot recovery ( don't flash)
8. in recovery activate sideload adb option
9. in command window run :adb sideload persist.zip ( persist must have this name in adb folder )
10. now reboot your phone
*in the beginning it will bootloop four or five times ..just leave it

Thank you so much for your reply. I really appreciate it. I admit that I am really wrong in flashing that permissiver zip. I just hoped that it will solve my random reboot issue, from this tutorial: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sou...BMAB6BAgCEAE&usg=AOvVaw2suOu9rYeTps71AvKuZbrA
So now, I already downloaded OrangeFox-R10.1_1-Stable-jasmine_sprout.zip for recovery and persist_restorer_6x.zip from the Telegram group, which is universal persist according to them.
But I just have some questions:
1. Do I need to wipe both a and b in recovery or use command fastboot -w before flashing the stock ROM?
2. After flashing stocK ROM in Miflash tool, it will start to boot to system, but in this case, bootloop, so am I right to press buttons to forcibly go to bootloader?
3. For #7 (boot to recovery), this means fastboot boot recovery.img?
4. For #9, if adb sideload doesn't work, can I flash persist in recovery instead?

no install stock using miflash but don't wipe anything ..for this to work well don't install the recovery ..just boot
fastboot boot recovery.img
then using the adb sideload option you can flash the zip from your computer without decryting the internal storage
you can flash magisk the same way ..then you will have stock rooted with persist restored but without custom recovery and your device will remain encrypted ..
if you want custom recovery and install custom rom you can wipe and install but for stock don't do it ..flash persist and magisk from adb sideload without decrypting
2.yeah enter bootloader / fastboot with power button and volume button
4. it will work if done correctly ...if you want to flash from internal storage you will have to wipe and format data to decrypt internal syorage

no install stock using miflash but don't wipe anything ..for this to work well don't install the recovery ..just boot
fastboot boot recovery.img
then using the adb sideload option you can flash the zip from your computer without decryting the internal storage
you can flash magisk the same way ..then you will have stock rooted with persist restored but without custom recovery and your device will remain encrypted ..
if you want custom recovery and install custom rom you can wipe and install but for stock don't do it ..flash persist and magisk from adb sideload without decrypting
2.yeah enter bootloader / fastboot with power button and volume button
4. it will work if done correctly ...if you want to flash from internal storage you will have to wipe and format data to decrypt internal syorage

Thank you again.
I tried adb sideload before but was stuck at 0%, I missed something. I'll update here for the result once I can be back to PC.
KevMetal said:
you are messing up ..stop ..
1.boot into fastboot
2. flash stock rom with miflash
3. boot back to fastboot
4. download orange fox or pitch black recovery that actually supports persist flashing
5. join global mi a2 telegram group download relevant persist like if mi a2 or mi x6 and on android 9 or 10
6. put it in adb folder
7. boot recovery ( don't flash)
8. in recovery activate sideload adb option
9. in command window run :adb sideload persist.zip ( persist must have this name in adb folder )
10. now reboot your phone
*in the beginning it will bootloop four or five times ..just leave it
***suddenly your phone will be back to new
***stop flashing permissver and other crap

ok yeah must be a mistake ..
do you understand that first you enter fastboot and boot the orange fox recovery ..only then you start the adb ..
BUT REMember first you need to toggle or activate adb from orange fox recovery (maybe you forgot this ? )
another thing it is very slow so wait very long
another thing the zip you want to flash must be in the adb folder and have the name you use
so
rename persist to persist.zip and put it in adb folder ..then put magisk zip and rename to magisk.zip :
adb sideload persist.zip
adb sideload magisk.zip

I need to wait more, I think. Before this thread, I tried to adb sideload in TWRP but it took somewhat long and still 0%, so I just cancelled since I ran out of time.

Regarding persist.zip, I am now confused because I asked in the group if the file persist_restorer_6x.zip is universal (either pie or 10, wayne or jasmine), they said yes, and another one said no. I searched in the group and found persist_restorer_a2.zip. I checked both files and they have the same filesize and contents.
So is there a thing like a universal persist for a2/6x, either for pie or 10? Or like what you said, only relevant persist depending on the os and device?

I see. I can't access my PC yet, but what if I still got bootloop after trying those steps, what must I do next? I'm worried for step #10.
Regarding the persist.zip, can you please check the zips below? The two have the same filesize and files inside, so maybe the two are just the same.

Ok thank you so much. Will try this tomorrow.
Regarding the state of my device, I can't boot to system because of bootloop. If I press power and volume +, I got no command. If I press power and volume -, fastboot mode. My device's bootloader is already unlocked, and can be detected through fastboot.

Got it. So the zip is compatible for either Pie or Android 10?
What's the best version for Miflash tool? I tried the newer version but it can't detect my device, and only the older version can detect. But it seems that the older version can't be trusted also since I still got persist error before.
For #10, my device will bootloop 4 to 5 times. So will it automatically turn off and on again until it will successfully boot? How long does it normally boot?

UPDATE:
So I flashed the Pie Rom (V.10.0.17.0) in the MiFlash Tool (v. 2016.04.01.0) and the flashing was successful. The device turned on and only remained at the Android One logo and turned off again. This repeated for another time and I then forced my device to fastboot mode through the buttons. I then flashed the latest Orange Fox Recovery and it was successful. Now, I checked the recovery and persist can't be mounted (can't put a check on the box), but I still continued to adb sideload mode. The sideloading for persist.zip started, but was stuck at 10%. I waited more and decided to disconnect and try to flash the zip on the device instead. I checked the active slot and it was b, so I thought changing to a will be able to mount persist. I thought that if I remain at b, I will still get mount persist error. I clicked "boot to recovery" and the screen turned off. After a while, the screen remained off and I tried to use the button combinations, and the screen was totally black (no fastboot, logo, animation, or even some light, etc). It's completely black, but I noticed that the device was still hot after a few minutes. I connected my device to the PC again and the MiFlash tool detected my device as Com10. I flashed the rom again but the flashing was not successful. I tried to uninstall the drivers and still, there is no hope for reflashing the rom (it's now detected as com4). If I try to use power combinations, the PC will make sounds like when you connect/ disconnect a device, meaning, my phone can still be detected by my PC. So is there still a hope for my phone?

all of this couldn't happen if you only flashed permissiver ..what rom did you previously flash in slot b
anyway doesn't matter ..boot to fastboot with buttons ..boot ..NOT FLASH orange fox recovery
do all wipes
format data
install custom rom
install magisk
install persist
reboot to other standby slot ..
do all wipes
format data
install custom rom
install magisk
install persist
then reboot and phone will boot
use a latest custom rom Q with gapps included ....
follow all the instructions ..not only some ..don change them ..if it fails message me with screenshot
but the 10% problem over usb is a hardware , computer or most likely cable problem ..get a new cable ..or maybe you changed or damaged your screen improperly ..
anyway try the above
also download the most newest copy of miflash and use that to install drivers and flash if you want to flash stock and flash the latest stock amdroid ..
if your phone doesn't go into fastboot it is cos it is bricked in edl mode ..so flash latest stock with latest miflash ..
THEN FLASH PERSIST BY ONLY BOOTINGBrecovery
did you try to convert this A2 to Wayne amd triggered arb ? that could be why flashing stock pie goes to edl mode

Just FYI:
Since 10.0.2.0 till now I thought that persist.img is version-insensitive, as I flashed persist.img taken from 8.1 ROM into couple of versions of 9.0 without any problems (via my method published in "Guides...").
Last week I noticed that compass is "showing south", and tried to flash various versions of persist.img into active 11.0.12.0 - and was surprised to encounter "white screen of eternal booting" with non-native version of persist.img. So finally had to flash persist.img taken from 11.0.12.0 fastboot ROM image.
(Btw, my problem with compass seems to have 2 sides -1st is somewhat very big deviation at homeplace, and 2nd is that only 1st magnetic sensor is being calibrated while second magnetic sensor is not being calibrated by means I used).

So I was able to use another laptop, and I managed to install adb, drivers, and MiFlash Tool. The 2018 version can now detect my phone, and I can now at least boot into fastboot. But my flashing is still not successful because I got stuck at system.img. The laptop freezes and I already tried to free up space in C: drive.
Picked one of these up on the weekend and was looking at going to linageos.
patched upto latest, and went through the linage install steps but missed the step on after installing the bootloader unlock software going into options and unlocking.
Went ahead and installed the linage recovery but now just get a basic screen with options of
START
RESTART BOOTLOADER
RECOVERY MODE
POWER OFF
All options loop me around back to the same place.
trying to start, ends me up with a your device is corrupt message.
I've been trying to get it back to factory.
QPST and QFIL can't see the device.
i can see the device in fastboot.
have downloaded latest firmware.
extracted using payload_dumper
no recovery.img on there.
updated the boot.img, vendor_boot.img dtbo.img from Question - My Asus Zenfone 8 flip is STUCK in CSC FASTBOOT MODE PLZ HELP!, RAW FIRMWARE ANYONE??? | XDA Forums
but no luck as there is no recovery.img in the firmware package.
Any ideas?
Somewhere there was FW update (at least I remember .115) to downgrade from beta A12 to .115FW (android 11). And it could help you I hope. At least you can try.
Yeah all is not lost. Etract and run this to get you back to factory stock. If you can't connect with fastboot, it's a driver issue and you'll just have Google it and pay around until you get the driver right.
Firmware I'm on would be WW-30.12.112.62 i think
is that android 11?

I was once stuck in a bootloop after flashing a custom rom and did a fresh install of official firmware.
Go to this website https://www.asus.com/Content/Android-12-Beta/ and scroll down to "How to opt-out and revert back to Android 11" section. There you can download the firmware file and a 3 step instruction.
By doing so I was able to bring back my phone.
The version of the firmware is from 2021/09/03 (WW-30.11.51.115) so you just need to update to newest release and everything should be fine.

I successfully flashed my European oneplus 10 pro using the instructions - see link below.
Everything worked VERY WELL, except texts/sms I could'nt receive but could send.
I spend hours and hours making it perfect.
I had the perfect phone.
So if someone wants to know how to use lineageos with full GAPS, just follow the link below.
Then being so STUPID, for no need and no reason I continued following the same instructions and tried to root the phone.
And then this disaster happened that boot is looping and I cannot run: fastboot reboot fastboot.
Meaning that I cannot repair my phone.
All I can do is push the volume down and go to recovery mode. That's all.
My PC can send fastboot commands but I cannot go to the menu where it's chinese and english and from which I could run commands to flash my phone properly back to where it was.
I don't care loosing the data and loosing so many hours of effort, but I REALLY need my phone back to work.
This is the link from this forum to the instructions that really helped me with my Oneplus 10 pro (that I bought by mistake).

Thank you Savio, but this is my main issue, I cannot enter fastbootD.
Whether using the tool "fastboot enhance" or using the command line. I cannot reach FastboodD.
When I try to reach this using the tool, it's looping with no error log.
And when I try from CMS:
C:\Users\me\Downloads\from dumper> fastboot reboot fastboot
Rebooting into fastboot OKAY [ 0.000s]
< waiting for any device >
fastboot: error: Failed to boot into userspace fastboot; one or more components might be unbootable.
It also still sounds like your recovery.img and/r boot.img still may be corrupted.
this needs to MATCH in BOTH slots A & B
Try this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...e-rom-root-and-recovery.4525451/post-87806713
Also, fastboot reboot fastboot
is only telling your device to reboot BACK into fast boot
This list should help you navigate things a bit better:
-- Find & Validate Device Post Startup--
adb devices
-- Reboot Device to Fastboot mode (Bootloader) --
adb reboot bootloader
-- Root device with Magisk patched boot image --
fastboot flash boot magisk_patched.img

This is where your fatal mistake was.... the red line above is incorrect !
It should have been, "adb reboot bootloader" THEN "fastboot boot magisk_patched.img"
you never want to straight FLASH any modified boot image when working with an a/b partition device.. or pretty much ANY device running the dynamic partition scheme. This is because of the way the partitions are laid out. Something about flashing a modified boot.img directly breaks things... BUT you had a DOUBLE FLAW in yours because you not only flashed a modified boot img directly, you ALSO flashed "magisk_patched.img" to android, which does not have a file named "magisk_patched.img" in its manifest.... android has "boot.img" in its manifest. Understand?? I have seen this flaw ALL OVER the place and no one seems to notice that, so im hoping several ppl finally realize the MAJOR error that they are making.
The android manifest has the EXACT names of every file to be loaded into the system, and any deviations to that list must be incorporated into the BUILD structure when making the os. In other words, say you wanted to build a custom flavor of android from scratch, and have the recovery be installed as a homemade "TWRP" build. Now im talking about FULL BUILD not a port, or remake of an already built OS... I am meaning "1st install... everything from the ground, up.... similar to what lineage does" ... THAT is where the origin android manifest is built... and all updates/custom mods/roms that are made from the original that you created, MUST FOLLOW the exact same file structure, and naming scheme that is in your original manifest. recovery.img needs to be named recovery.img .... system.img needs to be named system.img .... in the case of most of these boot loop issues (BUT NOT ALL) alot of ppl either find some guide written by a person who has never rooted a device in their life, but felt inclined to serve up some untested set of steps that had a fatal flaw they overlooked. THAT is what happened here.
Whoever wrote those steps obviously never tried them before writing them, or they would have had the same result as you. You CANNOT have a completely different named boot image FLASHED to the boot partition! Those steps are instructing you to FLASH, "magisk_patched.img" to the boot partition, where android is expecting "boot.img" ... if those steps were at all to be taken to be the real intention of the author then he would have needed to add a line prior instructing the reader to "rename the file from "magisk_patched.img" and make it "boot.img" ... then in the next step it would have been "fastboot flash boot boot.img" ... but i still DO NOT recommend that, as like i said it can cause errors. If at all possible you always want to BOOT the patched boot.img file 1st, because if there is any problems with it or android rejects it, all you have to do is restart the phone, and it will boot back up to the UNMODIFIED boot.img ! ... but if you FLASH it, then it has no old boot.img to revert to... thus the boot loop..... (bad boot.img ..... reset ..... bad boot.img ..... reset ... bad boot.img ..... reset...) <-Bootloop.
When you BOOT the patched image, though and it loads into the OS with no problems, then you have confirmation that the file was patched properly and is compatible with your OS. NOW you can simply open the Magisk app, and it will see your phone as already rooted, so you can then tap the install button, and then MAGISK will install itself correctly to the right partition, AND make a backup of the file that is from your stock os.
hope that sheds some light and also more ppl take time to read this! Ill make a regular post about it shortly for more visibility.

Understand?? I have seen this flaw ALL OVER the place and no one seems to notice that, so im hoping several ppl finally realize the MAJOR error that they are making.
The android manifest has the EXACT names of every file to be loaded into the system, and any deviations to that list must be incorporated into the BUILD structure when making the os. In other words, say you wanted to build a custom flavor of android from scratch, and have the recovery be installed as a homemade "TWRP" build. Now im talking about FULL BUILD not a port, or remake of an already built OS... I am meaning "1st install... everything from the ground, up.... similar to what lineage does" ... THAT is where the origin android manifest is built... and all updates/custom mods/roms that are made from the original that you created, MUST FOLLOW the exact same file structure, and naming scheme that is in your original manifest. recovery.img needs to be named recovery.img .... system.img needs to be named system.img .... in the case of most of these boot loop issues (BUT NOT ALL) alot of ppl either find some guide written by a person who has never rooted a device in their life, but felt inclined to serve up some untested set of steps that had a fatal flaw they overlooked. THAT is what happened here.
Whoever wrote those steps obviously never tried them before writing them, or they would have had the same result as you. You CANNOT have a completely different named boot image FLASHED to the boot partition! Those steps are instructing you to FLASH, "magisk_patched.img" to the boot partition, where android is expecting "boot.img" ... if those steps were at all to be taken to be the real intention of the author then he would have needed to add a line prior instructing the reader to "rename the file from "magisk_patched.img" and make it "boot.img" ... then in the next step it would have been "fastboot flash boot boot.img" ... but i still DO NOT recommend that, as like i said it can cause errors. If at all possible you always want to BOOT the patched boot.img file 1st, because if there is any problems with it or android rejects it, all you have to do is restart the phone, and it will boot back up to the UNMODIFIED boot.img ! ... but if you FLASH it, then it has no old boot.img to revert to... thus the boot loop..... (bad boot.img ..... reset ..... bad boot.img ..... reset ... bad boot.img ..... reset...) <-Bootloop.
When you BOOT the patched image, though and it loads into the OS with no problems, then you have confirmation that the file was patched properly and is compatible with your OS. NOW you can simply open the Magisk app, and it will see your phone as already rooted, so you can then tap the install button, and then MAGISK will install itself correctly to the right partition, AND make a backup of the file that is from your stock os.
hope that sheds some light and also more ppl take time to read this! Ill make a regular post about it shortly for more visibility.
cheers

Thank you, BB, for the clear explanations about respecting the structure of the partitions and not messing directly with the boot partition using a modified img.
Do I need to reach the conclusion that my phone is broken forever and there is nothing I can do to fix it?
I thought that as long as I reach the recovery mode, I can still fix it.
If you have a brilliant solution just as brilliant as your teaching, could you please help me restoring my phone to a functional state?
And BTW, it was a TRIPLE FLAW, because I had a wonderful lineageos 19 working like a charm with GAPS and I just wanted to root it for no reason.
Many thanks for your efforts.
Damn. Nice to know Lineage works well on this phone with extensive tweaking. GSI's can be pretty unstable from what I've seen, missing cell reception and the like.
Yeah, flashing that image killed the phone. I've seen some people recover by flipping their boot slot to the other one and forcing the phone to boot the stock boot there. But if you've flashed to both slots, you're most likely SOL and need a MSM flash. In which case, you could try flashing the complete stock boot image for your OOS version you were on before moving to GSI to both slots as sort of a last resort, but even then I've only seen minimal success.

I appreciate your help a lot.
I tried all the commands you showed, but I keep going back to this error:
fastboot: error: Failed to boot into userspace fastboot; one or more components might be unbootable.
I guess it is like a computer. The BIOS move to the Master Boot Record and it moves to the operating system.
It my case, the boot record or boot loader is broken.

Someone suggested to use MSM.
I understand that MSM is no longer available.
Any other direction how I can just fix the booting process?
And this is another error I received which gets closer to the source of the problem:
FAILED (remote: 'Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Bad Buffer
I’m assuming Adb does not work?
why don't we get boot_debug and vendor_boot_debug images to debug and then boot into fastbootd and flash it again, why waste time researching these unrelated things.

Yes right, adb doesn't work, only fastboot is still alive

Thanks for taking time to answer.
Could you be more specific?

[TOOL] Oppo/Realme Flash .OFP File on Bootloader
A tool to flash .ofp files in bootloader mode without needing MSM Tool, an alternative to official realme tool. THE DEVICE MUST HAVE THE BOOTLOADER UNLOCKED Features soft unbrick install stock firmware switch device region Credits...
forum.xda-developers.com
WHICH BROUGHT ME BACK TO FASTBOOTD
AND FROM THERE I USED FASTBOOT ENHANCED AND FLASHED PAYLOAD.BIN
AND MY PHONE IS BACK EXACTLY AS IT WAS WHEN I PURCHASED IT
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
One of the reasons why I decided to wipe this stupid oxygen os is because they limited my notifications to 5 seconds WTF ?!!
I didn't mention that I have previously bricked my first OnePlus 10 pro completely, so much so that I received a new one from the provider.
I flashed it successfully using Lineageos 19 and brickED it again trying to root it.
Now, I'll be looking for a solution to remove this stupid f%#$%# limit for Whatsapp notification. Any suggestion?
And I'll wait for an advanced modified ROM for OnePlus 10 PRO.
That's true that it worked very well using Lineageos 19, but text/sms didn't work and I saw that ROAMING was greyed out, so I cannot say if it works or not.
A BIG THANK TO ANYBODY WHO TRIED TO HELP ME.
BOTTOM LINE, ALWAYS HELP YOURSELF FIRST AND NEVER GIVE UP.
I spent over 100 hours on this phone, and here I am back from scratch, but at least with a WORKING PHONE.

THIS WAS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE !
After I thought everything was back, I noticed that the battery stopped charging.
I flashed again Lineageos and it worked but yet the battery didn't charge.
I re run the python script but this time using another OFP and it showed successful.
And yet it successfully killed my phone. Completely dead for the second time.
Hundreds of $ and of hours for a F^&& phone.
Huge lesson to learn here about choices.

Damn. I think what happened is you lost your persist.img when initially flashing the first ofp, that thing controls low level stuff like fingerprint unlock and charger cable auth I've seen on these forums. I'm not sure there's a way to get it back either outside of a MSM Flash, certainly haven't seen one here.

It's okay to spend a little money. It's very risky to do it yourself
Did you managed to get fingerprint working on gsi ?
