     * **For devices rooted with Magisk**, simply flash the zip as a Magisk module from within the Magisk app.
         * **For OnePlus devices running the stock firmware (or custom firmware based on the stock firmware)**, also extract the `.apk` from the zip and install it manually before rebooting. This is necessary to work around a bug in the firmware where the app data directory does not get created, causing BCR to open up to a blank screen.

+        * Manually extracting the files from the `system/` folder in the zip will also work as long as the files have `644` permissions and the `u:object_r:system_file:s0` SELinux label.
