quick one,go to twrp and wipe system and flash stock rom through odin.long one and less error prone if you time->remove root->flash stock rom->lock bootloader(update will fail if bootloader is unlocked)reset is needed->update->unlock bootloader->flash twrp & magisk.

hi! my OP3T is rooted and have a custom recovery (TWRP). now i get an ota update. i have read somewhere in this case its necessary to flash the ota manually in TWRP because i will lost root after this and if i flash it in TWRP i can after ota update flash superSU and will have no problems after reboot the phone.
i have tried this but get "Error 7" in TWRP while flashing ota update. isn't it possible at this way? what is my mistake?
thanks a lot for help and pardon for my bad english!

You should still receive OTA notifications with root. And it should detect you have root, and will download the full update zip, and it will install with TWRP.
Otherwise, you can manually download the full zip update from Funk WIzard's thread which he linked in Post #2 above (which also has detailed instructions on how to update when rooted and TWRP installed).
Works like a charm with magisk 13.6
I just did it with my OP3t and was super easy.
1) download update.
2) go to hidden folder .Ota
3) move zip file to another folder
4) put Magisk in the folder, too
5) reboot to recovery, flash ROM, then Magisk
6) wipe dalvik/cache and reboot
Edit: updated following testing of redpoint73's correct advice

As long as you already have TWRP installed (which is the situation we are talking about) you just need to flash the OTA update zip, then flash Magisk.
Magisk prevents TWRP from being over-written (replaced) with stock recovery. In other words, you don't need to flash TWRP, since TWRP is already there.

Yes.
Although I will caveat that with my rule of thumb: "hope for the best, prepare for the worst". In that a "dirty" flash of an update is often possible (saving your a lot of work setting up the device again). But you should still be prepared to wipe and do a "clean" install if you run into any problems. So back up your data, by your method of choice, before you try to update.
In particular, for a major update (such as OOS 4.x to 5.x) a clean install (default wipe in TWRP - data, cache and Dalvik) is typically advised.
Shall?? You used the word 'shall' properly in context? Kudos to the school system (I here assume India's) you attended, and to you for paying attention, using the 'King's English' in it's most proper form.
I have OxygenOS 4.1.6 with magisk and twrp.
I can update my phone with OperaVPN ?
or I need to uninstall magisk and flash stock recovery and update version device?
How disable dm-verity?

It should just detect you have TWRP, and download the full update (not the partial update for stock devices - which will result in a bootloop) and install properly.
I would advise to have Magisk on the phone, and flash it right away (after the update - before booting) as you will need this to get root again. And it will also (my understanding) prevent TWRP from being wiped out (which may happen if you reboot after the update w/o rooting first).
Alternately, you can get the full update zip from the Guides section, when it comes out. Then just flash in TWRP. Again, flash Magisk before rebooting.

It's discussed in the Guides section. Please read before posting questions that have been asked and answered over and over.
Hello everyone, I've tried to search on the web about this issue since the OTA for Android O is finally out for the Oneplus 5 and couldn't get a satisfying solution. I rooted my OP5 a while ago with Magisk and now that this update is out and tried to install it, It just wouldn´t let me, searching I found that my locked swich to relock the bootloader was because I had to enable it on Magisk, so I opened magisk and couldn´t find that option, and now that I searched on how to enable the "Lock bootloader option" in the Magisk app and found nothing, I'm just out of ideas, so guys, could you help a (noob) brother out with this?
Ps.: If you could attach some screenshots about where to click or what to do, I'll apreciate it a lot (yeah, I'm that stupid when I freak out and don't find how to undo mi mess)
No... Do not lock your bootloader! Since you've been modifying your device that would potentially brick it.
What you're probably looking for is to restore your boot image. That's what Magisk modifies and is the reason why a normal OTA doesn't work. If you have TWRP installed, that would also be an issue.
The easiest way for you to update would be to download the full OTA zip, flash that in TWRP directly followed by the Magisk zip. That way you'll be nice and updated and still rooted.

Allright! I've downloaded the zip with the update, now: do I have to get the latest magisk zip, flash the update and then immediately flash the newest magisk zip?

Haven't tried it, but there is an option to remove Magisk through own Magisk. It should restore boot.img to stock. As I have said, haven't tested but should work.
Someone can confirm it?
I need some help. I am on the January update. Didnt get bootloop when I installed it after unrooting before they stopped the update. This time I tried unrooting but unfortunately OTA still fails. I tried the Magisk uninstall with automatic restoring the error still persist. I also tried manually installing the boot.img for 10.3 but i get stuck on the android logo with only fastboot access. Flashing the patched 10.3 boot image lets me boot again. Any ideas to try except restoring (and wipping ) ?

As of OOS 9.5.10 you can boot twrp by fastboot, then sideload twrp into both slots and finally flash magisk which patches the boot.img itself. Thus no need for patched boot.img anymore.
Does this work for the global version??
Patched boot.img is a silly way of rooting... If someone uses the wrong boot.img for their version it will fail to boot. Plus, booting TWRP and flashing the magisk zip is faster and more reliable

The only difference between the global and the EU versions are supposed to be the LTE bands.

Sorry for asking but I wanna root mine as soon as it comes. So if you install TWRP and flash with magisk the OTAs won't be broken?

I get still offered OTAs by the system. However I prefer to use Oxygen Updater app from Play Store to download it and flash directly in TWRP.

Oh cool. So like "dirty flashing". Will magisk also get killed in the proccess? I'm not sure how A/B partitions work. Do you just install magisk from twrp or do you have to somehow install it on both partitions?

I seem to have lost my root after I did the update for 9.5.11 this morning
Here is what I did
I did as stated
Download update, Install, DO NOT REBOOT
Went to Magisk, unistalled all modules, then did OTA Install
Rebooted
Went to Magisk installed TWRP, but my phone froze at that point and the screen turned all white and just sat there
So I clicked on the power button and rebooted
Got back into my phone and checked to see if I was still rooted via root checker app and now it says I AM NOT ROOTED
What can I do to fix this I can launch Magisk, but now it says its is not installed on the screen, so I click install, download the ZIP option
It says Select Method, Download ZIP ONLY which I did or Select and Patch a File which I am not sure what file I need to use?
How can I get my root back on the phones
I am on NOW on 9.5.11 GM 1917
Thanks all

Follow the steps on TWRP and rooting on my guide. Look in the Guides & Discussion section of XDA

If you don't need TWRP, first booting it and flashing the zip takes way longer than "fastboot flash boot boot.img".
