Yep
To use the url, copy it, download magisk manager from official magisk thread, then go to the hamburger menu (3 lines), go to settings, then find update channel and press it, press custom, then paste the url in, once done, click done, then go back and install magisk, press download zip only in the pop up, once done, go to twrp, flash the zip from /sdcard/magiskmanager

Can you post a link to the directions on how to root

Anyways, here..

You dont need to download magisk from here, just search google for magisk 16.7 and click the first xda-developers.com result

10.0.3 Update is rolling out

Just received 10.0.3 Update, updating now.
Will grab boot.img from Ota and will root soon.
Can you share the filename from .Ota hidden folder so that official link can be obtained?
Also can you share a screenshot of your About phone please? I believe that there will be regional specific builds like there are for OP 7 and OP 7 Pro.

You can start the download once the update is available, then goto the .ota folder and pick the filename, which is:
"OnePlus7TOxygen_14.I.05_OTA_005_all_1909252229_1be2cbaa2.zip"
Then construct the OTA URL yourself, looking at previous URLs.
You mean that I got to update to the latest available OTA (OnePlus7TOxygen_14.I.05_OTA_005_all_1909252229_1be2cbaa2.zip) and then flash the patched boot.img?

Have any of you noticed a real difference in picture quality after this update?

If you're rooted, just install the update, do not reboot, start latest magisk canary, install to inactive slot, revoot. It works, can confirm.

I see, but if I've only had the unlocked bootloader, I still have to through the steps of extracting the boot.img, patching it, fastboot flash it then use magisk manager?
Damn, hoped I could just install without all the steps ?
Thanks mate!

Yeah you need to extract boot.img, patch it with latest canary magisk (must be latest canary!) and fastboot flash boot patched_boot.img
Then you will have root
Or you could just wait for someone to post the patched boot.img, guessing it will be up here soon. If you don't want to hassle with extracting and patching.

A12 Working

Installed via OTA. All fine including the following modules: Busybox, MagikHide Props Config, Riru, Systemless Hosts, Universal SafetyNetFix (2.1.1). Rooted with Canary Magisk. Installed same EX Kernel as before. Guineapig work complete.
I just checked and I have the A12 OTA available. I'm still rooted on A11 with similar modules but haven't taken any OTA in years. How did you prepare for the OTA?

What exactly are you trying to do? If you want to get the stock kernel back, just flash the boot.img. As for editing a .sh, it is just a text file. Edit with notepad++ or the like.

I guess rooting using Magisk and then using MagiskHide will help for hiding root from your banking apps
To the dev:
Is this kernel version 5.1?
Also does camera work on the F62 after unlocking the bootloader and flashing a custom kernel and stuff?

Root by using magisk to patch the ap file.

Is there a version of TWRP available for the phone? I might be doing something wrong and wasn't able to root using Odin and magisk and so it'd be easier to just flash using TWRP. Bootloader is unlocked btw.
can this file use for m62 also? cause cannot find file for m62 u2 only u1

To be honest, I just built it and haven't tested it, nor is it flashed on my phone. The build completed successfully on my Linux system so I can only assume it works and performs the functions that I intended it to. I will try it out later, I'm not up to setting my whole phone up again. By then, I'm sure someone will try it, and report back. It's basically a revamped version of crDroid with some modifications. Bluetooth, speaker audio and others.
Flashed and so far so good.no splash IMG though so just wait and it will boot to system.using on f.16 firmware.
