  • Hi, I contacted OnePlus personally and asked about the warranty. If you root your phone, unless you cause damage to the hardware e.g. by acting on the governor and ovreclocking the system, the warranty will NOT be voided. OnePlus can understand if the damage is due to a real issue of your phone rather than an excessive use of the root.

    • Please consider to add two things in your guide, it’s not clear for beginners:

      – copy “magisk_patched.img” on your PC (in fastboot.exe folder)
      – reboot your phone in fastboot mode (bootloader) before run fastboot.exe on the PC.

      • Once you patch the boot.img file with the help of magisk. You will get the new file after patching that would be named as “magisk_patched.img”. Now you need to transfer this img file in your PC to flash it in your OnePlus 6T.

        To boot your device into fastboot mode, use the below command:
        log-press and hold the Volume Up and Power buttons.
