Help fixing S20 Ultra Bootloop - Samsung Galaxy S20 / S20+ / S20 Ultra Questions &

I rooted my S20 Ultra (Hong Kong version) last year with Magisk. I was recently trying to install an OTA update, when I realized that I had not created a backup of my original system, so I could not use Magisk to restore the original image and then install updates, so I decided that I would just uninstall Magisk and root it again after updating. Unfortunately, when I pressed the "uninstall Magisk completely" button, the device ended up in a boot loop. I can access the recovery menu, but neither clearing the cache nor a factory data reset resolved the issue.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

It did installed on the root stock ROM?
If so, you can't do OTA update, unroot won't be the solution
If you have TWRP installed, you can install a custom rom without deleting your data.

[Q] Dlashimg SuperSU fails to root my device

I'm at a loss as to what is wrong. I flashed a prerooted stock version of KitKat and I think root was working. But now for some reason it doesn't work. I flashed the supersu zip (v1.80) via TWRP recovery but after rebooting, the SuperSU app doesn't even show up on my device. When I install manually from thr Play Store it's as if I'm not rooted. I've flashed the zip multiple times and I do not want to factory reset and delete all my data (especially since I really can't backup without root atm). Any ideas?
Edit: sorry about the post title typo. *flashing

Failed OTA update for Oxygen OS 3.2.1 on OnePlus 3

Hi all, I have just recently purchased a new OnePlus 3 from one of the distributors listed under OnePlus's website. I've been waiting for the 3.2.1 OTA update for a while and its finally in my region. However after it finishes downloading and I press install, the phone reboots and after a while it would appear a screen which says "Installation Failed" with nothing else but a Reboot button. Can anyone shed any light on this potential problem or is it isolated to just my device? Is it possible for me to completely reinstall OxygenOS on the phone again? (wipe the phone and reinstall android + oxygen's). Also when I bought the device and first booted it, I noticed that there was some apps already installed( apart from stock google ones). These looked like malware to me and it doesn't allow me to uninstall them(from app drawer or from settings), is there anyway i can uninstall them as well?
Thanks in advance
I see no one replied to this topic, sadly. I am experiencing exact the same issue. Currenty I am on OxygenOS 3.1.3. When I go to system updates it says OxygenOS 3.2.6 is ready to download. I hit download, it downloads, reboots but then it says the update failed and I can only reboot.
Anyone knows a solution? Would be nice if I could update my phone
if your bootloader is locked and you dont want to unlock it, then you can download the full rom from oneplus's official website and sideload through command prompt. instructions are available there on their website.
If your bootloader is unlocked and you have latest twrp, just use the below link to download the full rom and flash it via twrp.
if you want to do a clean install with twrp go to wipe the select everything and wipe. this will delete everything on your phone including the os. remain in twrp and connect your phone to your pc and copy paste the rom in twrp folder in your phone and flash it.

Magisk/TWRP Recovery and Upgrading

It's been awhile since I've used a custom recovery. Since I've had this phone I've used systemless root and flashfire to install OTA's and that has worked fairly well. Recently my phone bootlooped and google sent me a new one.
I just unlocked it, installed TWRP and Magisk, but was wondering what the best way to upgrade the phone would be.
1I've heard flashfire works with Magisk, but I never had much luck with custom recovery's and updating with flashfire.
If flashfire doesn't work, what would be the best way to update?
When 7.1.2 is released, could I just flash the system, radios, etc. from fastboot and then reflash magisk from TWRP and be upgraded?
I had to uninstall magisk, reboot, download the ota via the system menu and install it, then re-flash twrp, then boot recovery and flash magisk, then re-add my modules and re-enable systemless adblock

Bootloop after uninstalling Magisk any solution?

Hi guys i rooted my m30 using magisk for few months ago and i realized i cant use any bank application in my phone and that is really uncovenient. so i decided i want to unroot my phone, i tried to uninstalled the magisk from the application, after the system reboot my phone stuck in bootloop. the only way to escape the bootloop is to install magisk again. can someone help me to unroot my phone without any problem from bootloop? Any replies is appreciated
Bootloop after uninstalling​Experiencing a bootloop after uninstalling Magisk, either through the app or with the apk renamed to uninstall.zip and flashed through recovery, might mean that the boot image hasn't been restored correctly or that dm-verity otherwise triggers.
Try one of the following:
Restore your stock boot image (there's a copy of it stored in /data, named stock_boot_<sha1>.img.gz).
Flash a no-verity zip directly after uninstalling Magisk/restoring your stock boot image.
Dirty flash your ROM/factory image/firmware package.
Clean flash your ROM/factory image/firmware package.
