well, would youliek to share your capture or you just gonna flaunt it? lol.. and were you able to achieve root and succesful boot thereafter ?
Yes sir

I was able to capture ota extract the "payload.bin" get the boot image patched it with magisk app . Then I flashed it using fastboot on the computer.

I booted up the device installed root checker and it worked.

So basically you connect your phone to the computer. Make sure you have automatic updates shutoff. Start downloading the update, but don't download it all the way . Pause it after 15 seconds. Type " adb logcat > ota.txt " without quotation . In you platform tools folder there should be a file called it's.txt open it . In the search type " googleapis " and you will find a httpslink.zip copy it and paste it in your browser it should start downloading. Extract the downloaded file. The payload will be in the extracted folder.

Ota.txt** not it's.txt

I have steps for you on how to extract the payload.bin file with payload_dumper-master... Once you got a capture of your ota

Also I have telegram, but I need to download it.

I sent message on telegram

Platform-tools directory in terminal type that command*

Also I had android 11 at first . I did end up bricking my phone trying to install a unofficial TWRP. I thought I was never get my phone back working then I tried to flash different boot.img . I flashed it with different ppls images. Still nothing. Kept doing research. Flashed it more had a phone that finally turned on , but no wifi .... I flashed the October patch android 11 flashed vbmeta , boot image , system.image system_etc.img . I finally was able to turn on my phone have wifi. I noticed there was a new update . I was just gonna download the update to fully get my phone back to normal, but this was my chance to root it cause all the software lined up . I figured out how to capture ota . I capture the ota to my version of the new update. I downloaded my update for Android 12. I patched the boot.img . BOOM 💥 flashed it phone successfully rooted . New update to Android 12 and root.

So my phone is currently rooted on the android 12 , but there is a new update . What I'm trying to figure out is how to update it. It seems you can only get the boot.img with full ota . With be android 11 at first . Android 12 was a full ota. Since I'm on android 12 there is a new update, but it's not a full ota . It's a incremental meaning not all the software is getting modified. I did manage to capture my incremental update , and you'll know it's not a full ota if it's only like 100mb. full ota are like 4gb . So I have the payloads for both updates. I'm trying to combine/extract both payload.bins boot.img combine them together to have a new updated root . My phone is still rooted properly . I would just like to stay up to date.

I could definitely use a copy of the recent OTA mine is soft bricked right now. in the boot_b. in boot_a I flashed twrp to boot, the touchscreen doesnt work so i use my mouse on it.
Umm what android version are you on , and what model . I could possibly upload the images for you to flash. , But my theory is you have to flash all the images on both slots to get it back working . If you're interested lmk.

Like system.img boot.img vendor.img modem.im ect... All the core images

Yes I believe it is possible. It's like getting a new update. And I have it all extracted from the payload bin. I check Here every so often if anyone interested. Like every image

Gotta flash all them so they all line up

Don't wanna just post anything and someone bricks there phone. But if your phone is already bricked , them it don't hurt to try.

I don’t usually post I just kinda hang back and read but I have an n20 gn2200 that I bricked trying to get rw on the system. I have tried so many combinations of flashing this that and the other that I don’t really know what firmware I’ve downloaded anymore. I know I was on 12 before I crashed the phone and was going to try getting twrp on my slot b partition but haven’t got there. If you have flashable imgs for android 12 I’ll give them a shot. Don’t mind trying it out like you said can’t hurt right

I got you . And the thing about twrp . You gotta flash it to your recover.img. it replaces your recovery. I've flashed it to my boot.img , and that's what bricked my phone.

And Nord doesn't have an official twrp that works. And I'm not seeing any recovery.img partitions.

Once I upload to Google drive . I will upload the link to all the images for download. I just need set my computer down and let them upload it'll take a lil time .

I've managed to figure out how to modify partitions and flash them. Like anyone interested in following along with this new project I'm working on. Like I mounted my_product.img to my computer edited some files deleted the carrier boot animations . If you try to mount it it'll mount, but it won't let you edit or delete files. OnePlus partitions are erofs not ext2, ext3, or ext4. Erofs is a read only file system I've came across this program that converts it to ext2. I was able to mount it I edited some files deleted some files. Flashed it .it flashed without a problem. The original my_product.img was like 300 mb. When it got converted it was like 600mb. So I deleted the carrier boot animations, and it reverted to the OnePlus boot animation. When I deleted the OnePlus boot animation it reverted to a stock android boot animation. And when I use a root explorer on the phone it allows me to create folders delete files. So the my_product which contains the boot animations flashed without a problem. So I did the same thing to system.img it lets me convert it edit files. When I go to flash it. I get an error. " fastboot flash system systemsu.img" the error says " invalid sparse file format at header magic Resizing 'system_a' FAILED (remote: 'not enough space to resize partition')". the original system.img was like 700mb then it changed to 1.5 gb once I converted it. If there is a way to reduce the size of the partition it it'll work . Or if you increase the size available, so you don't get an error.
