Install OTA with root

[Ruvahkiin]

I have a doubt. What should I do if I have magisk installed and I want to update by OTA?

1. Update and DONT reboot.
2. In magisk: install --> install to inactive slot (after OTA)
3. Reboot.

Shouldn't it be like this?

1.Turn off all modules in Magisk
2.Uninstall Magisk / Restore Image /DON'T Reboot
3.Install OTA / DON'T Reboot
4.Start Magisk Manager and click Install to inactive slot / Reboot.

Because if you update before restoring stok boot.img your phone gets many many problems and perhaps you must perform factory reset to let it work properly after OTA.

No. You can do it like you said but it's not necessary.
I heard on other phones you will get issues but not with OnePlus.

I just uninstall magisk and leave modules installed, update, install magisk to inactive slot, reboot.

I did not uninstall Magisk, just disabled the one module that I was using. My steps:

In Magisk Manager: Disable all Magisk modules, reboot
Install OTA update / DON'T Reboot
Open Magisk Manager: click on Install/Install/Direct Install, DON'T Reboot
Once again in Magisk Manager: click on Install/Install/Inactive Slot
Reboot

Can you confirm this works with the 10.0.12 update? I'm honestly confused because every answer is different.
And also, should I let my phone download the whole update, which it wants me to because it detects the root, or should I do only the OTA via Oxygen Updater?
Thanks in advance.

Mine was from 10.0.11 to 10.0.12 HD65AA. I let the phone update though the OTA. Root was detected and it downloaded the entire update, i proceeded with install, just did not reboot when it completed.

I am also getting confused now...
Someone says if we are rooted we won't get OTA but full ROM update.
Tell me what I have OTA or full ROM update? (see screenshot) Which steps with Magisk must I take to update from 10.0.11HD65BA to 10.0.12HD65BA without loosing any data.
Thanks in advance.

2.6 GB is the full rom.

As it was written:

- Disable all modules, reboot
- Do the full download as suggested and the upgrade via system updater and DO NOT REBOOT
- install magisk to inactive slot, reboot
- boom Chaka laka!

So no need to restore first via Magisk stock boot.img coz update will overwrite to stock anyway?
I am so "scared" coz last time I did wrong from 10.01.09 to 10.01.10 and I had to factory reset and waste whole day to install everything again and root it again.

Edit:
I don't have TWRP so after update must simply flash via fastboot magisk_patched.img 10.0.12HD65BA or what?

Updated from 10.0.11 to 10.0.12 and all I did was:

1. Disable all magisk modules
2. Updated from normal ota, didn't reboot
3. Back to magisk manager and click on Install/Install/Direct Install
4. Again in magisk manager click on Install/Install/Inactive Slot
5. Reboot
6. Activate all modules.

Done no patching no nothing

3. Step isn't needed because OTA will install to the other partition and your active one will be untouched. And I personally didn't deactivate modules.

You can also do this:
1. fastboot boot magisk_patched.img
2. Magisk manager --> Install --> install --> direct install
3. Reboot

With this method you wont get bootloops or anything. Because if you boot the image only it's not temporary. That's why you install in magisk manager.
