Revvl 6 5G - MetroPCS - Android 13

The Revvl 6 5G has no recovery.img, so I had to approach by means of patching the boot_a.img. Following the magisk installation guide, I was able to achieve root for the Android 12 variant. After the Android 13 update, with Magisk 26.1 and 26.2 Beta, I am unable to achieve root by means of the magisk_patched-boot_a.img. When flashed via Fastbootd, the device freezes at the logo screen and requires full flash of backup to fix. When flashing via MTKClient, the devices treats magisk_patched-boot_a.img like a regular boot_a.img without root. Patch flashing vbmeta_a.img soft bricks to fastboot/bootloader when the device boots. The Android 13 firmware has not dropped publicly, so I'm working off a payload backup dump. Attached are the debug installation log, A13 boot_a.img, and the magisk_patched-boot_a.img.
