In just a few steps you can Root your OnePlus phone on any version of android without using custom recovery. This guide can be especially handy for those who don't have a custom recovery like TWRP or just lazy to install it (like I am), so here I will explain how you can root your phone with just a couple of ADB commands and a few tools.

What you will need:

For your phone:

Install Magisk apk
Install Oxygen Updater

For your PC:

Download Payload Dumper for your OS and unzip it wherever you like

You need to do the following:

Using Oxygen Updater on your phone - download update zip file and copy this file to your PC.
Extract payload.bin from the update zip file in the folder where you extracted Payload Dumper previously.
Run command .\payload-dumper-go.exe -p boot .\payload.bin (Payload Dumper executable will have a different extension on MacOS and Linux).
After this command there will be a folder named extracted with a boot.img in it. You will need to copy this file to your phone.
Then on your phone, open Magisk -> Install -> Select and Patch a File -> select boot.img.
This will create a patched image magisk_patched.img in your Downloads folder.
Copy generated magisk_patched.img to your PC.
Run command adb reboot fastboot.
After it booted to fastboot, run command fastboot boot magisk_patched.img and your phone should boot normally into the system.
Now open Magisk, click Install -> Direct Install -> Reboot.
All done!
