A big thanks to Zackptg5. The master of this mod from the beginning. I just adjusted this now to work on the Oneplus 6 series phones.
Modified TWRP (Mauronofrio's build) and installer script for Oneplus 6 series that re-purposes userdata for true dual booting. You can still use this as a regular stock twrp zip - one stop shop for magisk, verity, and/or forced encryption modifications.
You can choose to install this Dualboot-mod with a blacked themed TWRP or with OrangeFox recovery.

10/06/2020 - 3.4.0-0 v1
- Initial Release v1 modified Dualboot TWRP for the Oneplus 6/6t
- Updated with Magisk 21.0
- I am not responsible for anything bad that happens to your device. Only experienced users should be using this mod
- This is no walk in the park mod. Although I have extensively tested it, there is always the possibility of a brick with anything that involves repartitioning.
- Always make a Backup of all your Data before using this.
- YOU'VE BEEN WARNED - Use at your own risk
- You can only set a PIN/Password in one of the ROMs not on both.
- Can choose between stock layout, a/b userdata, a/b/c userdata where 'c' is a common data partition that'll show up in both roms, or StockSD layout which will create a seperate partion on Stock layout
- Option to choose between ext4 and f2fs
- Disables verity - fstabs are modified for dual boot and so this is a must unless you choose stock layout in which case it's optional
- Option to disable forced encryption
- Option to install magisk
- From Version 5 onwards there is a Dualboot Companion app added which can be used to reboot to other slots System or Recovery and it even will integrate in the reboot options from Android 11
- The Dualboot Companion app has also the ability to share apps Data between both ROMs (this is still in beta/test!) and to mount the other slots Data or System partition
- If you choose a/b/c layout - you'll have a/b userdata, but you'll also get a 3rd userdata partition called 'Common Data'
- The name 'Common Data' gives away its purpose - to store files that you'll access on both slots/roms. So stuff like zips, Pictures, Music, etc.
- In recovery, this shows up as another storage option for backup/restore and on your pc as well - your phone will have 'Common Storage' and 'Internal Storage'
- The common data partition is mounted to /sdcard/CommonData
- .nomedia file is placed in CommonData so files in it won't be picked up twice if you decide to mount over internal storage as outlined below
- Furthermore, if your use case is like mine where my music files are in common data, you can make a 'mounts.txt' file in /datacommon containing a list of every FOLDER to mount directly over top of sdcard. So for example:
/datacommon/Music -> /sdcard/Music- This of course mounts over anything there (overwrites it for as long as it's mounted) so make sure that you don't have the same folder in both datacommon and regular data
- Note that there are 3 exceptions to this folder mounting rule:
- All - if this is the FIRST line, ALL folders in datacommon will be mounted
- Android
- lost+found
- The reasoning should be obvious - lost+found isn't something you should need to mess with and Android is for regular data partition only - that's OS specific and should be on separate slots
- Note that you should have 1 folder listed on every line, for example:
Music Pictures ViPER4AndroidFX
- From Version 5 onwards there is a Dualboot Companion app (made by User Invernomut0) added to the Dualboot Recovery which can be used to reboot to other slots System or Recovery and it even will integrate in the reboot options from Android 11
- The Dualboot Companion app has also the ability to share apps Data between both ROMs (this is still in beta/test!) and to mount the other slots Data or System partition
- It will create a folder called "DualBoot" inside the SDCARD with folders for "SDcard_a" / "SDcard_b" and "System_a" / "System_b"
- If you are using the A/B/C Layout and have activated the "Share app" function inside the Companion app it will create a folder "SharedData" inside of your Commondata folder for the apps you selected to share the data throughout both ROMs with
- The app also shows additional information about the installed ROM Version, Android Version, and security Patch for each ROM
- You MUST be booted into recovery already when flashing this Dualboot-mod.
- Since this modifies data - the zip CANNOT be on sdcard or data at all UNLESS you do not want to repartition/format
- If you flash from data, the zip will copy itself to /tmp and instruct you to flash it from there
- Read through ALL the prompts - there's lots of options.
- See more info here: https://github.com/Wishmasterflo/TWRP-DualBoot-Guac-Unified/blob/master/Text.md
- Nothing changes here except ONLY FLASH IN RECOVERY
- Roms always flash to the opposite slot. Keep that in mind and you'll be fine
- So don't take an OTA while booted - boot into recovery, switch slots, reboot into recovery, flash rom
- Normal flash procedure:
- Boot into Recovery
- Flash latest OOS (when doing a clean-flash!)
- Flash rom (this will flash to the opposite slot)
- Flash Dualboot-mod
- Reboot to recovery
- Flash everything else (GApps etc.)
- Format data!
- Usually this is because you switched roms without formatting data on that slot!
