My phone perpetually "suggests" me to update to F63.
> OP8Pro with F13, OrangeFox and root.
> Build number IN2023_11_F.13.
> Magisk
> OrangeFox for FB1

I enabled "Automatic updates" and OFox set up to allow OTA.

Yet any attempt to update to F63 results in "Could'n update. Installation problem".

Any ideas? Any logs to loot at?

Thanks in advance

Pretty sure you can't OTA update OOS with any custom recovery, and you can't update at all while rooted.

From a guide I found elsewhere:
Open Magisk Manager, select “Uninstall” and choose the “Restore Images” option. Magisk will restore your phone’s stock boot image that was backed up during the rooting process.
Now go to “Settings” → “System” → “System updates” and select “Download and Install Now” to install the OOS OTA update on your rooted phone.
After the update finishes, DO NOT REBOOT the phone. Since you restored the stock boot image, the root access will be lost if your reboot right now.
Now open Magisk Manager, press “Install” and select “Install to Inactive Slot (After OTA)” from the list of available methods.
Finally, select “Let’s Go” to confirm and install Magisk to the inactive slot (where the OxygenOS OTA has been installed).
After Magisk is installed, reboot your phone by pressing the ‘Reboot’ button.

My Magisk states there is no preserved stock image. I remember it was backuped during the installation. Very strange.
Anyway where can I have the F13 boot.img?
