I have unlocked the bootloader and rooted the phone with Magisk (by booting temporarily into twrp). I noticed that there is a System Update, but the update fails, possibly because the phone has been rooted. Is there any manual way to flash the update without losing data?

As far as I know any OTA update will remove root, you would need a pre-rooted firmware.

im not sure if you'll lose root but just to make sure, download a pre-rooted .270 FTF or create your own pre-rooted FTF using this method

Yes but you will have to use the Sony Companion program, you will connect your phone and click repair, this will download the firmware, but make sure you do not flash it to your phone, the firmware when downloaded will be in /ProgramData/Sony, not sure if that's the right directory, but it will be about there, then you will need to use FlashTools to decrypt the firmware, then you will need to create a bundle before a ftf file is created. After that its just a point of making a flash pre-rooted zip. Way too much hassle, but I have done it.

Hello friends... I'm stuck with June patch and want to use OSTLA to flash the firmware and hope to get updates.
I have bootloader unlocked, also critical
But when I put the .mlf file from firmware on OST 6.0.4 I get an error "software version of the updater is out of date" and can't let me continue to flash.
So... I installed 6.1.2 and stuck in "reflash service bootloader"
Is there any chance of flash the firmware? NTool is safe to use?

Hey I have p20 pro EU version 6/128
Today I got a new update about Google security.
I want every update run on my phone
But I rooted my device.
I wanted first to ask guys , I tried to update but was unsuccessful. I do not have twrp because of the method I used to root p20 pro didn't allow me having magisk and twrp recovery.
So now if I want to update have to do it manually ?
2 questions
1) which program do I use ?
2) where I can find the firmware Official WITHOUT BEEING CHANGED ANYTHING inside from someone third.
Thanks John
You need to flash the stock bootloader. If you are running Pie and Magisk, you have a modified bootloader. I don't know where to download the stock one. Could probably rip it from a stock Pie firmware.
Me to have twrp on my p20 pro and i cannot update my phone.. Have new update but when I try system update after download, its entering to recovery mode for install the firmware but it cannot coz working twrp and unsuccessful installation.
Me to look for stock recovery for clt-l29 pie

Download the current version you are using. Extract recovery_ramdisk.img and flash. Reboot and take OTA update. You will lose root, as I said you have a modified recovery and need stock to take OTA.
Edit - Once your done, patch the bootloader from Magisk and flash to get root again.

Since you are unlocked you have a few options. You can either download and sideload the same OTA via adb in recovery, or you can fastboot flash the full factory image. You could also d/l the full image, extract the boot.img and try fastboot flashing that first.

Sure. Read THIS first. Then go HERE to d/l the correct image for your phone. There are instructions on this page as well. You can also access the OTA images (with instructions) from the menu on the left. Good luck.
EDIT: to avoid confusion, you want to use the OTA images for recovery. Use THIS LINK and read the instructions carefully.
EDIT 2: Make sure you have the very latest adb/fastboot binaries from HERE.

You really can't update via stock recovery without using a pc to side load it through adb. Might as well be full stock with a locked bootloader to take the OTA :good:

Apparently you did not read the instructions in the OTA link above. Without a PC or laptop properly set up with adb/fastboot you cannot fix your phone. A rescue OTA via adb may not even work, so you need to be prepared to flash a full image. Not that difficult but it does require a laptop or computer. You are very lucky your phone is unlocked.

Sure.... Please go back and read my post above, including the links I already provided to you. Step-by-step directions are given there by Google on the OTA download page, those and are all you should need. There are also devoted guides you can find by searching "OTA via adb" or "rescue OTA". I also provided a link above for the latest adb/fastboot binaries. Let's see what you can do! :good:
