Hi

I am assuming that I wont need to flash the twrp image and that will give me root access until the next OS upgrade?

You shouldn't flash TWRP image at all. The rooting procedure is the same for most Onyx devices, TWRP builds are different across them and as far as I know, only Max 3 has them. `fastboot boot magisk_patched.img` gives you root access until next reboot. I would suggest to do this first, since if something goes wrong, the device won't be bricked permanently, and a simple reboot will fix any problems that arise. If you're certain the patched boot image works as it's supposed to, only then do the "permanent" flash.

Thanks for the reply. This is very helpful. One last question if you do not mind. How do I do the "permanent" flash"?

`fastboot flash boot <boot_image_name>.img`. I think https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sh...d.php?t=336523 does a better job of explaining what to do in what order. You can get decrypted boot image by using https://github.com/Hagb/decryptBooxUpdateUpx and then use magisk to patch it. The procedure is the same for most devices, the boot image is different, hence why you need to prepare your own.
