I am using the kenzo version with 3gb ram.
I am currently on resurrection remix rom 6.1 and am updating the rom via dirty flashing it. I thought about rooting the rom via magisk flash and was thinking if the device can be updated after rooting it. If yes then how?
I don't understand the question if you are asking about if you can update with magisk, yes you can, I think you have to reflash magisk after updating the rom.

Sry.
I am talking about updating my rom. Can i update it once i have rooted it? Cause i read magisk does some changes in the boot sector and i don't want that while updating my rom(via dirty flashing) causing it to bootloop.

yes, you can update your ROM without any problems after root it's with magisk, don't worry it's won't cause bootloop or anything, if you want to update ROM , just flash ROM , gapps , wipe cache and dalvik cache then reboot.

one more things I forgot to tell you , you don't need to reflash magisk after flashing update rom coz twrp will automatically flash magisk after flashing rom. however you need to flash magisk again if you make a clean flash .

Hi, it's the first time I've rooted and changed rom to a phone (actually it's first time ever I'm using an android phone) so sorry if this question seems to be stupid
I've installed on my OPX this rom and now I want to update it, I read that I sould dirty flash the new version. What does this mean exactly? I just flash the new version without any wipe? Do I have to reflash Xsposed, gapps, ...? Thanks for the answers

In dirty flash
You only wipe cache and dalvik cache
You dont wipe data and system partition
For xposed you need to flash the xposed file again
And for gapps it depends, but generally you need to flash gapps again
Dirty flash is when you flash one custom ROM over an existing custom ROM on your phone (maybe the same ROM or a different one)
Off topic : clean flash is when you go back to stock ROM and then flash your new ROM zip
I did a factory reset on my phone and it just booted up in to twrp recovery mode and I cant get in out of it. Its stuck on it I even tried installing a custom rom to make sure i didnt delete everything somehow. Nothing is working I rooted my phone yestarday im still new to this stuff. Anyone have any ideas on how I can fix this?

I had this issue, too once. Can't recap what exactly fixed it, but I flashed TWRP again (think that didn't fix it) and then dirty flashed a ROM (in this case the same, which was already on the phone). If I remember correctly it worked after the later only. Might have also had to flash superSU. No data should be deleted if you just dirty flash (but do make a backup, should be no problem, since you are stuck in recovery anyway [emoji12]).
What ROM did you try to flash? You're rooted?

I also dont really care if I lose photos or anything I already got all of them saved on my pc before I even started rooting the damn thing. I do need to ask tho how do you dirty flash and Do i just flash twrp normally since im already in it or ??? As I said im rlly new to this
TWRP can be flashed just from inside TWRP itself. Dirty flash means not do a factory reset before flashing.
Sorry that I can't remember what fixed it, but you can get out of it, 'cause I did, too...
Just wipe cache and dalvik/art cache then install separately TWRP, ROM, GAPPS, SUPERSU again and reboot after each install step to see of you reboot to TWRP again. That's what I did.
I use latest AICP ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=69699770) but that shouldn't matter.
Hope it helps.

Wait you were trying to flash recovery for a pixel device on your g5?
What TWRP build did you flash when you said you downgraded? 3.0.2-1 or 3.0.2-0 ? What is the date on the TWRP build?

It's happened to me too! Like three times lol. Just use UpperCut / LG UP to flash the latest nougat rom. That will fix the issue. You will need to re-root after that. There are instructions in this forum that tell how to do all of that. Good luck
Well and don't flash a ROM which is not for your device...

You need a special TWRP for Treble if you want to flash Magisk. It's all linked and discussed in the LineageOS thread.
Also, when coming from an old or unofficial LineageOS build, you need to do a full wipe (System, Data, Cache, Dalvik and Vendor).

I did a full wipe even it's an official lineageOs but the problem is still exist.
I reflash all stuff like gsi vendor mido treble, gapps, kernel and boom, the problem is stand still.

Yes exactly! After downloading the ROM and flashing it from recovery you will notice that it is treble rom(apart from the message: "patching system image unconditionally..." You will also see a message: "Patching vendor image...")! So you need two things to download:
1) Custom TWRP for treble ROMs.
2) Custom Magisk for treble ROMs.

I just download magisk custom from the lineageOs's thread and flash it then it's succesfully installed a.k.a. no bootlooping anymore.
Maybe I should reads the threads carefully before execute next time.
Wow thanks a lot man, you helped me.
Same problem
Hi there, I'm having the same bootloop problem. Could you show me the thread you got the magisk from?
So first of all I would really recommend you to grab this TWRP: https://sourceforge.net/projects/orangefox/files/mido/ (all credits go to orangefox developers and you can find them here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/re.../recovery-orangefox-recovery-project-t3775933)
Download the latest R7 zip because it supports now all kinds of roms (treble, non-treble and Android P!)
Now go and download the magisk from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk/beta-magisk-v13-0-0980cb6-t3618589
First rom then gapps custom kernel(optional) last flash magisk. If you encounter any issues with magisk then wipe everything flash rom gapps and kernel if u want boot your phone to system reboot to recovery and flash magisk.
basically i installed a magisk module that caused bootloop, uninstalled that module in twrp. wiped cache/dalvik just in case. phone got stuck on boot (not bootloop) with just the three 'thinking' dots above the android logo.
waited for about an hour before deciding something was up, so flashed magisk uninstaller.zip to remove the lot, wiped cache/dalvik again. (btw, the bad module was the only module i'd flashed)
now i'm stuck at the boot screen again, has been this way for coming up an hour, should i wait longer, is it optimizing my installed apps? or should i just resign to having to flash a rom again and reinstall all apps/settings etc?
foolishly i forgot to backup data before flashing the module. didn't expect this kind of headache!!
any advice please
its a bootloop. reinstall firmware.
Yep, firmware flash was the only way

Reinstall firmware means i just have to flash MIUI 9.2.25 vendor firmware for pie by Akhil Narang, or I have to flash entire stock Miui by downloading the zip?
Just the vendor firmware. Depending on what ROM you have, you can install a newer version than 9.2.25. I use 9.3.25 with PE.

wipe system,davik and cache. then dirty flash. remember not to wipe "system" if you flash OTA .zip
Okay, I have Additional questions :
1. Do I have to disable magisk modules or outright uninstall it before flashing?
2. Do I have to mount system and vendor in twrp again?
3. Do I need to install magisk again after dirty flashing?
4. Do I have to flash DFE again?

1. Not necessary (unless you are using a module which may cause bootloop)
2. I never did.
3. Most of the times when dirty flashing the same ROM, twrp flashes Magisk (and GApps) automatically (atleast in my case). If it doesn't flash automatically, then you can flash it manually in order to make it certain.
4. Like I always said, flashing DFE is not necessary if you use the TWRP that supports decryption without actually decrypting your device permanently. Infact, I never suggest anyone to use a decrypted device if using it for financial purpose.

Omg, thanks for answering my questions mate, much appreciated!
Depends, but if you are switching from a different ROM then dirty flash will most likely brick your device or cause a lot of errors and it should never be done. But if it is from the same ROM, like going from older PE to new one, then all you do is flash the newer one with the older version already installed. But it is recommended you clean flash because from my experience, dirty flash always caused errors like lag and crashing. Just use Migrate(available on Play store) and use it to backup apps. A lot of these custom ROMs are still early and in BETA so it is recommended you clean flash.
As for DFE, it is optional. Only problem is you will have to use TWRP with SD card support or one that has a working decryption so that you can flash files through the recovery . You can use apps like flashify to flash if you dont want to your device decrypted. If you got any questions you can ask me.

I want to dirty flash a ROM (just an updated version of the same one) but I dont know how i can place a file into my phone's internal storage through TWRP without formatting de data (full wipe). My phone is not recognized by my PC on TWRP mode unless I make a full wipe.

G3's typically have sd card storage available. athat's where I put all my roms, gapp's, other stuff which I have no trouble flashing from TWRP. Beyond that you must seek one more learned than I.

You're right. That user is wrong. Do NOT wipe system if you are dirty flashing. Otherwise you are just doing a normal flashing, not updating your rom.

I'd say no.
Android System partition is mounted as readonly after boot and won't be modified anymore then (unless you modify system files with adb/TWRP and mounted system partition).
Your during Android usage installed apps are stored in Data partition.
However you have to reflash gapps and magisk in case you installed them with TWRP/adb.
