![In this guide, we will show you the steps to root your OnePlus 10T via Magisk Patched Boot.img. The newest addition to the OnePlus family has sparked a lot of debate. On one hand, you get the latest Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chipset with up to 16GB RAM and an impressive 150W fast charging. But on the other hand, it is the first device ever in the OEM lineup to remove the volume slider. At this point, you shouldn't be even surprised as to why a company would end up removing one of its USPs that was well adored by everyone, because if a company could ditch OxygenOS in favor of ColorOS, then it could go to any great lengths [though on paper it is still OxygenOS, but we all know the reality]. However, the only saving grace is the fact that these devices are quite an active player in custom development. In this regard, once you have unlocked the device's bootloader, you'll be in a position to flash custom ROM, kernel, recovery, and welcome abode a plentitude of mods and tweaks. But before that, there is an important prerequisite that you need to checkmark off the list- you will have to root your OnePlus 10T via Magisk Patched Boot.img. And in this guide, we will show you how to do just that. Follow along. Benefits and Risks of Rooting OnePlus 10T Once you root your device, you will be in a position to flash a plethora of mods. These include the likes of Fox Magisk Modules, Substratum Themes, Xposed Framework via LSPosed, Viper4Android among others. Along the same lines, you could also flash a custom kernel and implement your desired CPU profile. However, such tweaks do come in with a few risks as well. To begin with, rooting requires you to unlock the bootloader- which will wipe of all the data and could nullify the warranty as well. Likewise, SafetyNet will be triggered [FIXED] which will result in your inability to use banking apps [FIXED]. So if all that's well and good, then let's get started with the steps to root your OnePlus 10T via the Magisk patched boot.img file. How to Root OnePlus 10T via Magisk Patched Boot The below instructions are listed under separate sections for ease of understanding. Make sure to follow in the exact same sequence as mentioned. Droidwin and its members wouldn't be held responsible in case of a thermonuclear war, your alarm doesn't wake you up, or if anything happens to your device and data by performing the below steps. STEP 1: Install Android SDK First and foremost, you will have to install the Android SDK Platform Tools on your PC. This is the official ADB and Fastboot binary provided by Google and is the only recommended one. So download it and then extract it to any convenient location on your PC. Doing so will give you the platform-tools folder, which will be used throughout this guide. STEP 2: Enable USB Debugging and OEM Unlocking Next up, you will have to enable USB Debugging and OEM Unlocking on your device. The former will make your device recognizable by the PC in ADB mode. This will then allow you to boot your device to Fastboot Mode. On the other hand, OEM Unlocking is required to carry out the bootloader unlocking process. So head over to Settings > About Phone > Tap on Build Number 7 times > Go back to Settings > System > Advanced > Developer Options > Enable USB Debugging and OEM Unlocking. STEP 3: Unlock Bootloader on OnePlus 10T After this, you will have to unlock the bootloader on your OnePlus 10T.

I have converted payload.bin to Fastboot ROM for a few firmware versions and uploaded them. If they match your build number, then you may directly download the required files from this guide. As a result, you wouldn’t need to download the entire firmware or extract its payload bin file. In other words, you may easily skip the next step. STEP 5: Extract OnePlus 10T Payload.bin Once you have downloaded the firmware, extract it to any convenient location on your PC. Doing so shall give you a couple of files, including the payload.bin. For the unaware, OnePlus packs all its partition IMG files inside this payload.bin file, so you will have to extract it first. For that, you may refer to our guide on How to Extract payload.bin and get the stock boot image file. Once the extraction is complete, transfer the boot.img and vendor_boot.img files to your device. On the other hand, transfer the vbmeta.img to the platform-tools on your PC. STEP 6: Patch OnePlus 10T Boot and Vendor_Boot via Magisk Download and install the latest Magisk APK onto your device. Then launch it and tap on the Install button next to Magisk. After that, choose 'Select and Patch a File', navigate to the stock boot.img file, and select it.

Once done, again tap on Install next to Magisk and choose Select and Patch a File. After that, select the vendor_boot.img file and tap on the Let's Go button situated at the top right. It will now patch this file as well. Once done, this patched file will also be present in the Downloads folder So transfer both these files (Patched Boot.img and Patched Vendor_Boot.img) to the platform-tools folder on your PC. We will now be using both these files to root your OnePlus 10T via Magisk. STEP 7: Boot OnePlus 10T to Fastboot Mode Connect your device to the PC via USB cable. Make sure USB Debugging is enabled. Then head over to the platform-tools folder, type in CMD in the address bar, and hit Enter. This will launch the Command Prompt.

Then rename the patched boot file to magisk_patched.img and patched vendor_boot to magisk_patched-vb.img Now open the CMD window inside this platform-tools folder and type in the below command to disable verity by flashing vbmeta: fastboot --disable-verity --disable-verification flash vbmeta vbmeta.img Next up, execute the below command to flash the patched vendor_boot: fastboot flash vendor_boot magisk_patched-vb.img After that, boot your device using the patched boot.img file: fastboot boot magisk_patched.img Now launch the Magisk app and tap on the Install button next to Magisk.
