Hi guys,
I was running twrp 3.0.1-0 with the unofficial linage build, however once I flashed the office build I seem to have gone to what looks like a stock recovery (when you try to flash anything you get a white circle with various colours sliding in and out of phase). Whilst the OS seems fine, I can't seem to flash anything anymore, gapps, supersu etc even via ADB sideload. It will appear to flash successfully, but nothing will have worked. I can boot into fastboot still but that won't let me flash TWRP either.
I read that revoking that the USB privileges would help but when I do that I don't get any pop-up asking for privileges, even after I wiped it and flashed it again, via the stock recovery.
To be honest I could live without TWRP but without gapps (play store) I can't do much.
Any advise or help would be most welcomed.
Thanks!

Official LOS doesn't have TWRP built-in, and never had, as i remember.
Use opengapps app to install gapps. For root use SuperSU.
If you still need twrp, use kernel (boot.img) from unofficial one.
Hi,
android 7.1.1
Just installed TWRP 3.1.1-0. this works fine and I can still boot in TWRP.
After Installation the tablet worked,
but now I always stuck in the SONY XPERIA screen
I was about to install Magisk 19.3. That didn't work, so I tried different version which all failed. Somehow I pressed the button to delete cache/dalvik
With this, I think I did sthg wrong.
I have a backup for Xperia Companion and MyPhoneExplorer, but I can't get the software to recognize the device anymore.
Is there a way I can revive my tablet
What are my options to do?
any help is welcome,
thanks
siggel
finally I could flash SGP712_32.4.A.1.54_1295-4711_R1E.ftf with Xperia flashing Tool 0.9.26.0, so the thing is working.
But what did I wrong?
- deleting the cache within TWRP?
What am I supposed to do to get Magisk working?
As far as I read, I've to install a custom ROM, is it right?
Which one is preferrable?
And will the newest Magisk work with it?
Is there an "all I need to know about Z4 tablet thread"?

Afaik Magisk requires LineageOS on this tablet. I'm running both successfully.
How do I have to install Magisk on the xperia z sgp311 tablet? Once I had managed to install MAgisk just by flashing Magisk.zip but it doesn't work anymore. I tried changing the name of magisk.apk to magisk.zip. It doesn't work either. didn't work either

Hi, which TWRP version are you using ? Allowed system partition modification ?
install lineage os microg when I do it it returns twrp with more basic options I have tried flashing the latest twrp with lineage os microg but it doesn't boot the system and makes me flash lineage os microg again when I do it it modifies more basic twrp I don't know why that happens

Edit: what I wrote below is wrong. You're likely running into a Magisk 24.3 bug
-------------------------
This probably doesn't answer your question - but installing Magisk permanently may not be possible. My unscientific opinion (based on my recent experiences) is you may need to install everything in one shot - i.e. no reboot. I recently managed in install Lineage 15.1 from stock using twrp by:
rebooting into fastmode
installing twrp
rebooting into recovery (the one shot I had - if I rebooted at this stage, twrp would be gone! So avoid rebooting from here on out. )
Install lineage zip, then microg & any other packages you want
Reboot into lineage - twrp no longer available
I couldn't get twrp to stay installed even when I tried to install it to system, I figured that's because pollux_windy doesn't have a recovery partition. Also - I'm going off memory, so I may have gotten things wrong. However, it took me about 3 attempts to get things right (at times lineage wouldn't boot, IIRC, I may have forgotten to wipe the cache). I was following the steps in the wiki and used the following versions, accoding to my downloads folder:
twrp v3.6.1_9-0-pollux_windy.img
open_gapps-arm-8.1-nano20220215.zip
lineage-15.1-202000220-nightly-pollux_windy-signed.zip

Fixed in recently released v25.0.
Good evening dear members, I ask for your kind advice, as I have done something wrong to my Oneplus 5t.
I upgraded my Oneplus 5t with "lineage for microG" 19.1 (from lineage 18).
I had installed TWRP 3.5.0_9 (phone encrypted).
It booted fine the first time into system.
The problem arose after I tried to install Magisk 21.4 from TWRP.
Now the phone only boots in recovery, but it doesn't enter TWRP's menu. It stays on the first TWRP screen (where it shows the version number).
The good thing (I hope) is that I can enter fastboot mode.
I tried flashing TWRP again from fastboot to no avail.
I tried flashing boot.img from fastboot (taken from the original firmware), but still no luck.
Is there a way to install the original firmware from fastboot?
I think starting from scratch would be a step into the right direction.
Please give any suggestion which I fill follow to the letter.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
You have to be decrypted or flash DMverity for A12. I assume You mean Magisk 24.1 the current version is 24.3
Hi. This is what I did:
I downloaded and installed original firmware through fastboot (fastboot was still on).
I also installed original recovery through fastboot.
After that my oneplus 5t was in stock condition, apart from the bootloader, which was unlocked.
After that I managed to install TWRP through fastboot, and then lineage 19.
The thing is that TWRP doesn't support lineage 19, for one reason or another. Or it could be the other way around (lineage 19 doesn't support TWRP). In any case I had a phone which would only go in fastboot mode.
At least I knew what to do, as I did it already: reinstall stock firmware and recovery.
Long story short, I installed LOS recovery and lineage 19, and everything works fine.
Thanks everyone, and especially thaidroid, for the support.
Have a nice day.

Its not working cus you need to format data in recovery and then reboot it.

It wont boot cus your encrypted formatting data will allow op5t to boot.

What recovery are you on? TWRP?
I use the one posted alongside each version: https://download.lineageos.org/dumpling
can you help?
I need to root so I can titanium backup everything. but I can't root. I suspect I might need to fully format and wipe and start again, I tried wiping data and doing a fresh install, but after sideloading magisk it just fails to boot every time now.
Does it boot regularly BEFORE installing magisk? I am trying to define the source of the problem.
I have installed lineage 19 and magisk, and I confirm you that it's possible
Yes. It boots fine if I just install lineage then nevermindthegapps. problem only occurs if I flash magisk. I tried installing the .apk and patching the .boot image manually in it and then fastboot flashing that, but same thing.
oh - one possible thing that it may be - is that I had a couple of modules loaded (I think a gcam fix mod and something similar) in magisk, and I read somewhere about people having them stuck 'installed' despite demoving all traces of magisk app. whether that is the problem I don't know.
This is very strange. That's what I did:
Sideload lineage recovery
Sideload lineage 19
Download magisk apk
Patched boot image from lineage 19.zip
Sideload the patched boot image
And that's it it all worked
May I suggest you to start all over again?
is wiping system data sufficient or do I need to format it? I'd rather not lose my appdata- but I can't rescue it without root / titanium backup :/
Try first without formatting, and see how it goes
I wiped system/cache, installed lineage-19.1-20220719-nightly-dumpling-signed.zip / mindthegapps, phone booted up fine - rebooted fine.
ok, good. Now download latest magisk app and patch the boot img.
do I click patch vbmeta in image?
Yes.
First extract the file called boot.img from lineage.zip you just installed.
Then in magisk select "patch vbmeta in image".
Magisk should produce a file named something like " magisk_pached-24300_f41h3.img".
That patched file should be sideloaded.
Installation is explained really well by topjohnwu
it wouldn't flash without selecting vbmeta, so tried with, flashed it, now i'm sitting looking at the boot logo.
Good afternoon. I ran into a problem that I can not install magic on the device. This requires installing TWRP, which has not been officially released. There is an article on this forum that you can install TWRP, but if I do this, the phone goes into an endless TWRP download - https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/recovery-bkl-emui-8-x-unofficial -twrp-3-2-1-0-working-recovery-from-view-10.3798751/
Version - 3.2.1-0 does not work. I tried iterating through the versions and found 1 which opens TWRP but it doesn't work properly - https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/root-emui-9-0.3883991/. It doesn't clean up, it doesn't install. Some errors in the logs.
I also tried through this instruction - https://4pda.to/forum/index.php?showtopic=904618&st=6220#entry89786439
Next, I tried to find the firmware for this phone, which is extremely difficult. Android version - 9.1.0.xxx
I need this in order to pull out the boot file from there and patch it through the magic. I found the firmware from Colombia. I'm trying to install via HuUpdater. He tries to install 3.2.1-0 TWRP, which does not work, and install the firmware through it, which also does not work. I installed another TRWP where it runs but nothing works. Through it does not want to be installed. My bootloader is unlocked.
I no longer know how to get root rights.
Several times I was able to get root rights, but I could not do a factory reset and the magic did not work properly. It's critical for me. I need to be able to do a factory reset.
Help me please.
Hi! You tried to get the boot.img from your rom, and patched it with magisk, and flashed it to the phone?

I can't do this because this requires a TRWP which is not in working order.
