If it's easier, rename the magisk.apk file from GitHub to magisk.zip and flash that over ADB Sideload in recovery. Don't forget to actually install the Magisk app too before installation.

I'm sorry to ask... is there a guide for flashing PE on this phone?

Idk how to unlock the bootloader / Install it without TWRP, which is not available for this phone.

Is your device a T-Mobile branded device? If so, the process may take up to two weeks for all of the information to go through. You basically either have to have your device fully paid off and on the service for more than 20 days or you can message mobdeep (I think that was their name, but I will double check for you) with the account last name and phone number. From there, they'll give you further instruction regarding a SIM unlock (which is the first step to unlocking the bootloader.

Next, you'll want to get a OnePlus unlock token, which takes exactly a week from the time you request it. Detailed instructions from OnePlus here: https://www.oneplus.com/support/answer/detail/op588. This is the website you go to for the unlock token request. https://www.oneplus.com/unlock_token

Please keep in mind that a bootloader unlock will factory reset the device!

Once you setup your device after the unlock (I recommend just skipping through everything really, it's gonna be flashed away again soon), you can either manually flash every img in fastbootd (which can be accessed by adb reboot fastboot when the device is on or rebooting to the bootloader and executing fastboot reboot fastboot), flashing the PE recovery image and then sideloading the ROM with ADB, or you can use my automatic script that only works on Linux at the moment.

I'm here if you need help

This rom is so great but I have a couple issues.

There's no native parallel apps support but I found that the app "shelter" creates a work profile and it works just as great. I highly recommend.

also, the always on display has to slightly correct when turned onto the lock screen, basically the AOD is off center, or the lock screen is. (small but is extremely noticeable when you start unlocking your phone a lot)

Also, launchers like shut off in the background? They take a second to load when you go back to the home screen except for the stock one. Driving me crazy!

Stock camera app can't use wide angle camera. (IN2017)

Hoping these all get improved with the soon android 12 update, have a good one, love your work!

EDIT: I'm also on pixel experience plus

I second all of this. To work around the ultra wide issue, I installed GCam and PX Camera (latest versions of both will do just fine).

Google pay broken

Its broken because OP 8 didnt get the August security patch. No one knows why maintainer isn't updating it

 

[Eandme]

I have discovered a bug. When the device is done playing YouTube HDR content ( which weren't display correctly) the screen will shift to green and break the fingerprint scanner.

i installed Magisk for root and i install root explorer... however i still cant modify the contents of SYSTEM\ETC.

I get copy failed even though its showing write enabled... any one have any ideas how i can overwrite files and make modifications in system\etc\ ?

Hello, I have a Tmobile OnePlus with A11 and the August patch, when I perform all the steps for the installation in the first boot it gives me an error of "system ui isn't responding" and it does not detect the simcard or the wifi, shortly after I get a "Qualcomm CrashDump Mode" error

If you are rooted with magisk you can use riru lsposed + xprivacylua magisk hide to get safteynet working (my OP8 is on the July patch due to no updates yet).

The only major downside to this method is it will break google call screening. You can re enable it but 3-4$ donation is required to enable the manage hook assignments feature.

Hi.
Not really sure about AOD, but I guess that's a feature, not a Bug. I believe its to prevent screen burnout changing the position of the clock so the leds being use aren't always the same.
The launcher problem is a well known one, and the only workaround is or to use the stock launcher, or use the magisk module quick switch (find it in magisk app, modules tab). The only current launcher supporting quick switch and android 11 is Lawnchair 11 beta (find it in telegram channel).
Stock camera, same problem as usual. Really hard for devs to do anything without oneplus to release the source.

That's something that just happened. I think there was a maintainer a couple of days ago
