Ive modified the android_winusb.inf to show the correct device ID 0FCE for windows 7 x64 installed it and thats gone fine.
Now trying devices gives me nothing reboot-bootloader gives me <waiting for device> cant make a decent boot.img backup to inject Root, anyone got any ideas how we can connect fastboot, the bootloader is unlocked but unconfirmed.
Until we can get a decent boot.img we cant really start the development.
fastboot.exe -i 0x0fce getvar version connects and displays fine.
are you starting your phone in bootloader mode?
power off
hold <search> + plug into usb
I was able to issue fastboot commands from there such as fastboot reboot. If your bootloader is unlocked you should be able to use any of the below commands. You can also modify the boot.img from the recovery image from the bundled software. And boot to it on sd without writing to nand.
I've been pretty busy or else I'd try it myself, I just played with it enough to unlock my bootloader myself and that's where I stopped. If you need some help let me know.

Yeah done all that im sure the bootloader is now unlocked it erased the blocks and reset my phone, ill boot into ubuntu and try it from there. Windows wont let me issue any commands

I tried downloading the "repair" image and it sees that we modified the bootloader and won't download the image and the only files on SE website is for the update software not the image which I think is kinda bullsh*t but whatever.
so... if someone that *HAS NOT* unlocked the bootloader can download and mirror the file it downloads, should 100+ mb somewhere on your computer possibly in your %temp% directory if you are on a windows based workstation
I had the same problem cant restore major over sight by sony if our software breaks any time soon....
We need the unmodified boot.img only problem is i have another play ones got to go back that one is fresh in the packet but with the bootloader locked we cant issue commands with fast boot. catch 22

also the /proc/mtd for the boot partition is hidden in case anyone suggests we just pull for a backup.
Another reason I won't be doing much tinkering untill someone can provide us with a recovery image (note not just /system dump)
I'm trying to unlock my Nexus 6p but am unable to successful unlock it. Steps I have taken:
1) Turned on device and enabled developer options, unlock permissions, and usb debugging
2) Plugged phone into computer and granted permission to computer
3) Booted phone into fastboot and confirmed connection with commands fastboot devices and fastboot reboot-bootloader
4) After the steps above I type fastboot flashing unlock and get a string of options in the command window but nothing happens on the phone (see copy of text options that appear after typing fastboot flashing unlock)
I'm using ADB version 1.0.31 with Windows 10
Is there a newer version of ADB I need to be using? Any tips or ideas would be appreciated as I would like to unlock the bootloader before I set up my phone.

Under Developer options did u enable the option that says, enable bootloader unlock?
Thanks for the response. Yes I did. In fact, I reset the phone and went back in and enabled developer options and allow unlocking again. I still can't get it to unlock the bootloader.

I went to developer option and selected allow OEM unlocking. Then my fastboot command worked to unlock my bootloader. I know this is not new information but wanted to confirm to you that I did what you did and it worked
I don't know the version numbers but you have to make sure you are using the latest version of fastboot. If you aren't it won't work. When you open the SDK folder open the exe file, I forget exact name but something like SDKmanager.exe, although I know that isn't right. Make sure to update the platform-tools folder and the latest android version. It should work after that.
If not delete any Nexus toolkits you might have downloaded in the past and try again.

Your issue is that your adb/fastboot is out of date and therefore doesn't recognise the "fastboot flashing unlock" command. How did you install it on your PC? If you didn't install it via the Android SDK that's what you need to do, it's the only way to ensure that you're fully up to date. See my guide for details:

Hi,
I was on Resurection Rom 7.1.2, but decided to go back to stock today.
I am after wiping caches, data and system from my phone, so I can only access bootloader and twrp.
I have installed mini adb on Win10, and also Clockworm UniversalAdbDriver but none of them seems to work for me. My phone is not visible in devices manager or in adb commands. I can only see "Waiting for device" , adb devices returns nothing.
I am stuck without the phone
Any advice would be most welcome.
Thanks!
Do you have the Motorola usb drivers installed on your PC?

ADB isn't available in the bootloader, you have to use fastboot. Try running "fastboot devices"while connected to your PC and in bootloader mode.

Tried that, but Moto is not seen by Windows. I had Motorola Device Manager but it did not help.
Actually, in Windows Device Manager, in hidden devices, I can see Mot Composite ADB Interface.
Can I use other's phone sd card and install from there? Do I need to mount it in twrp?
Make sure you only have one instance of ADB/Fastboot installed. If Motorola Device Manager installed the drivers correctly, [I had to use Motorola Mobile Drivers Installation 6.4.0 gui.] then tey
Code:
fastboot devices
Also be sure USB debugging is on in developers option on your phone.
I have found the problem in in cable/usb socket. It's fine for charging, but somehow the cable needs to be pushed more into the port for windows to see the device.
Enjoining Android again
Thanks for all support!

Seems to me like all this happens in ADB mode which has to be (as you mentioned) in fastboot mode.
So @bambamishere:
Bring the device to fastboot (not ADB) mode, type
Code:
fastboot devices
(you should receive a serial number then)
Then type
Code:
fastboot flash recovery "name of recovery.img"
where "name of recovery.img" stands for the real name like twrp.img or however it's named.
Make sure that the image is in your ADB & fastboot folder on your PC.
This guide will only work up to OOS 11.
This guide is for users that can't or just don't want to download MsmDownloadTool. Linux users especially, since the tool is not available for linux. All you need is a recent version of android tools with a fastboot capable of executing fastboot reboot fastbootd.
To start, download the appropriate Oxygen OS zip for your device from the OP8T repo thread. Extracting the zip file should give you a file named
payload.bin.
Use payload dumper to extract payload.bin.
You can grab payload_dumper from here (Windows and macOS), here (linux), or here (github, any OS).
For the download link from github, make sure you're running python 3.6 or higher. Run payload dumper with:
python payload_dumper.py payload.bin
The image files will be extracted to a folder named output.
Before starting the flashing process, you can check your device memory type using the DevCheck app by flar2 or with the command adb shell getprop ro.boot.ddr_type. The adb command will return 0 for LPDDR4X chips and 1 for LPDDR5 chips. This is important to flash the right xbl img files. LPDDR4X is more common for OP8T, so no worries if you miss this step.
You can start flashing from the standard bootloader or fastbootd. The first three lines below will flash the stock recovery then reboot into fastbootd.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash dtbo dtbo.img
fastboot reboot fastboot
fastboot flash --slot=all recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash --slot=all boot boot.img
fastboot flash --slot=all dtbo dtbo.img
fastboot flash --slot=all abl abl.img
fastboot flash --slot=all aop aop.img
fastboot flash --slot=all bluetooth bluetooth.img

fastboot flash --slot=all spunvm spunvm.img
fastboot flash --slot=all storsec storsec.img
fastboot flash --slot=all tz tz.img
fastboot flash --slot=all uefisecapp uefisecapp.img
If your phone has the LPDDR4X memory chip (returned 0 with the adb shell command above), flash the images below:
Code:
fastboot flash --slot=all xbl_config xbl_config.img
fastboot flash --slot=all xbl xbl.img
LPDDR4X is the more common chip for OP8T, so if you forgot to check, you can flash this.
If your phone has the LPDDR5 chip (returned 1 with the adb shell command above), flash the images below:
Code:
fastboot flash --slot=all xbl_config xbl_config_lp5.img
fastboot flash --slot=all xbl xbl_lp5.img
This next section will clear the super partition (contains odm, system, system_ext, vendor and product). It's not absolutely necessary, so you can skip to the next step. Clearing the super partition will help avoid the following error, which can come up if you had manually flashed ROMs on both slots previously.
Code:
Resizing '<partition name>' FAILED (remote: 'Not enough space to resize partition')
Example: Resizing 'product' FAILED (remote: 'Not enough space to resize partition')
If you've ever had this error or you just want to be sure that everything is cleared, check the spoiler.
Spoiler
Before deleting, you can check the names of the logical partitions on your phone using fastboot getvar all. Scroll up to the section that looks like this:
Code:
(bootloader) is-logical:odm_a:yes
(bootloader) is-logical:product_a:yes
(bootloader) is-logical:system_a:yes
(bootloader) is-logical:system_ext_a:yes
(bootloader) is-logical:vendor_a:yes
or
(bootloader) is-logical:odm_b:yes
(bootloader) is-logical:product_b:yes
(bootloader) is-logical:system_b:yes
(bootloader) is-logical:system_ext_b:yes
(bootloader) is-logical:vendor_b:yes
As @Matt85m pointed out, you may also have:
Code:
(bootloader) is-logical:odm:yes
(bootloader) is-logical:product:yes
(bootloader) is-logical:system:yes
(bootloader) is-logical:system_ext:yes
(bootloader) is-logical:vendor:yes
It is also possible to have logical partitions with the same names ending in -cow (system_a-cow, system_b-cow, system_ext_b-cow, vendor_a-cow, product_b-cow, etc).
These are created by various ROMs during an OTA. Shout out to @mslezak for the discovery.
Delete everything with the commands below:
Code:
fastboot delete-logical-partition odm
fastboot delete-logical-partition system
fastboot delete-logical-partition system_ext
fastboot delete-logical-partition product
fastboot delete-logical-partition vendor
fastboot delete-logical-partition odm_a
fastboot delete-logical-partition odm_b
fastboot delete-logical-partition system_a
fastboot delete-logical-partition system_b
fastboot delete-logical-partition system_ext_a
fastboot delete-logical-partition system_ext_b
fastboot delete-logical-partition product_a
fastboot delete-logical-partition product_b
fastboot delete-logical-partition vendor_a
fastboot delete-logical-partition vendor_b
Delete any -cow partitions with the same command:
Code:
fastboot delete-logical-partition system_a-cow
and so on.
If you get an error deleting the -cow partitions, @firegate22 suggests changing slots from the bootloader (fastboot --set-active=a or b) not from fastbootd, then return to fastbootd and try the delete command again.
All logical partitions can be deleted to free up space in the super partition.
Recreate partitions a and b with the commands below.
Code:
fastboot create-logical-partition odm_a 100000
fastboot create-logical-partition odm_b 100000
fastboot create-logical-partition system_a 100000
fastboot create-logical-partition system_b 100000
fastboot create-logical-partition system_ext_a 100000
fastboot create-logical-partition system_ext_b 100000
fastboot create-logical-partition product_a 100000
fastboot create-logical-partition product_b 100000
fastboot create-logical-partition vendor_a 100000
fastboot create-logical-partition vendor_b 100000
Flash the rest of the images.
Code:
fastboot flash odm odm.img
fastboot flash system system.img
fastboot flash system_ext system_ext.img
fastboot flash product product.img
fastboot flash vendor vendor.img
fastboot flash --slot=all vbmeta vbmeta.img
fastboot flash --slot=all vbmeta_system vbmeta_system.img
Assuming everything flashes with no errors, return to recovery, do a factory reset and reboot.
I like what you're proposing. I've been thinking along these lines also.
Would you mind explaining why you're flashing to both slots rather than just the inactive one?
If you leave the current slot untouched you have a fallback position (the whole point of having A/B partitioning).
The same question applies to the flashing/deleting of the dynamic partitions in super.

For this guide specifically, the idea is to return as close to stock as possible. Wiping everything and replacing with OOS would be the best way to do that.
More generally, other than boot.img and recovery.img, the images flashed on both slots in the first part are the firmware files. You can grab and flash them from pretty much any new OOS version to update the firmware without affecting the installed ROMs. The specific files for the ROM are all in the third part. If you extract the payload.bin for any custom ROM, those are usually the only image files included.
You can certainly run two different firmware versions on the two slots, but if the inactive slots are empty or contain much older firmware, you can end up with weird issues in the active slots (usually a boot loop but could be more or less serious). Keeping the versions close is just to avoid unnecessary issues.
Some custom ROMs for OP8T like Lineage recommend or insist on flashing the copy-partitions.zip package for this reason. It's also why the install instructions for older A/B phones that have TWRP generally begin with "flash the stock ROM on both slots" - only the firmware files are strictly necessary, so you can keep the fallback ROM on the other slot if you want to.
That ended up much longer than planned. Hope it answers your questions though!
I'm going through this process rn, and I figured I'd ask here. How long does it usually take to flash dsp? It's been over 20 minutes of Sending 'dsp_a' (65536 KB)
65 M looks pretty big, and that's maybe the max size? How long did it take for you?
edit: seems to be unrelated to size as the modem part went fine, and that's bigger
No go, next step : fastboot reboot fastboot enter QDLoader mode

Full time Linux user here, glad to see this guide after few days looking for a way to go back to stock without Msmtool.
However I do have some question, is it possible to have a OTA update from Oneplus if I go back to stock using this method and re-lock my bootloader?

Shouldn't be a problem. I was able to install an OTA update after returning to stock using this method with no issues even without relocking my bootloader.
thanks for this helped me alot to restore my device, i have one question though i checked all the commands and i see there might be one command missing, when i extracted the rom i checked all the img files and saw :

Glad it helped. Those files depend on whether your device has a DDR type 0 (LPDDR4X) or DDR type 1 (LPDDR5) memory chip.
You can check your device memory type with adb shell getprop ro.boot.ddr_type. It will return 0 or 1. You can also use the DevCheck app by flar2.
I believe most OP8Ts use DDR0, which requires xbl_config.img and xbl.img. The lp5 images are for DDR1.
According to the lineage OS wiki, you'd flash the lp5 images with the same commands on DDR1:
Code:
fastboot flash --slot=all xbl_config xbl_config_lp5.img
fastboot flash --slot=all xbl xbl_lp5.img

You need to clear more space in the super partition. You can basically delete and recreate both slots a and b for system, system_ext, product, vendor, and probably even odm to get more space.

Yeah, that's what they're for. Strange. Any other errors before the one for odm? Would be helpful if you can upload a screenshot of your terminal with all the commands.
Edit: One suggestion is to make sure you're in fastbootd, not fastboot. Also, the size for the new logical partitions is arbitrary - they get resized when being flashed.

it definitely is in fastbootd, I ran into that issue initially as the android-tools package shipped with Fedora was out of date, I dumped the newer tools from google into my /usr/bin.
Here is a dump of my last step by step attempt text file
OK, couple things you can try.
- Switch to slot a and try flashing again.
- If that doesn't work, flash the copy-partitions zip from the lineage wiki then try again.
Btw you can check the size of the super partition using fastboot getvar partition-size:super (you'll have to convert the hex value to decimal). It should be around 7.5 gb. Use fastboot getvar all to get the sizes of all the logical partitions. The total should be between ~3.3 and 4 gb after flashing or about 500 mb after you delete/recreate them.

worked it out looking at the entire list of partitions - I had 3 lots of each rom partion for example system_a, system_b and system, for all vendor product etc. purging the ones without the _a/b allowed the process to complete.
Might be a quirk of lineageOS installation process - you might want to make a note of it on the OP incase someone else runs into it

Good to know. I'll update the OP.
