Thank You very much !

Hi.
I already have 4.4.2 rooted with stock recovery. Can i install twrp and then downgrade to 4.2.2 with the jellybean rom you attached?
Thanks!

Yes you can But wipe cash and dalvik, after Flash...
But it's step backwards

Can you confirm that battery life is better in jellybean? Because that's my main problem with the phone.

lets just hope somebody makes a thread comparing the performance, battery life and camera quality in JB and KK.

for root flash SuperSu zip file in TWrp

Thank you for your reply.
I use it and it works perfectly! Nice work .
It would be two questions :
1. We have added language apk?
2. OTA update Lollipop will be?

Thank you so much for the backups.
I had been using Kitkat but wanted to go back to Jellybean. I did everything according to your mentioned steps and everything went on perfectly except that in Jellybean I'm getting no sound. I don't know much about it but it seemed as if audio decoders were missing. Can you please suggest anything? Or if possible please upload a backup which is free from such conflict.
Thank you

Did this fix the speakerphone bug?

I installed and the speakerphone bug is still present. Tried clearing app data for Phone and Dialler apps to no avail.
Side note:
Tried restoring from stock firmware in TWRP. Did not work twice. Got stuck on the Moto Blue Water logo. Third time, it worked inexplicably!
Any infos on what is changed?
Improval of battery life would be most interesting to me.

There is already a su file in the backup but that didn't work for me too. You have to delete the su file at /system/xbin/ manually via twrp file manager. If you reboot twrp will ask you to root again.

Can't find that folder in twrp

I found an alternate solution. I flashed the SuperSU zip, and it rooted the phone with no hassle. [emoji2]
I tried to restore it on my xt1052, it keeps saying that No partitions selected for restore. What should I do?
In your TWRP backup directory, there should be a folder with the date (2015-05-12--16-05-56_LPA23.12-15), make sure the image files are in this directory.
When I extracted the rar, it was 2015-05-12--16-05-56_LPA23.12-15\2015-05-12--16-05-56_LPA23.12-15\<image files>
it should be 2015-05-12--16-05-56_LPA23.12-15\<image files>
Can I install this from 4.4.4?
Test it. The proximity sensor also not work for active display.
So I back to 4.4.4 again.

No writing access to internal sd card after restoring backup

Dear forum members,
Im having issues with writing to my internal sd card, here the descripption of what i did:
I installed the rom Phronesis v6.2, everything was working perfectly until I realized that xposed was missing, I decided to install it by flashing the xposed-v80-sdk22-arm, unfortunately I got a boot loop so i decided to go back to my original stock rom (4.4.2) restoring a nondroid backup.
The problem is that after restoring it seems that I lost writing privileges to my internal sd card, using es file explorer shows that the storage/emulated/0 folder is empty, but it displays that is using 16 gb from 26. Using the stock “my files” the folders are displayed but I cannot copy anything to it (failed to copy). Applications in general work (some force closes) but I cannot save any settings
If I connect the phone to a pc, i cannot copy any files from the computer to the internal or external sd cards, however I can copy from the external sd to the computer.
I tried to format clear cache etc and restore again but the issue persists.
Can anyone be so kind and try to help me figure out a possible solution?
Thanks in advance

1. Go to your custom recovery and wipe all (system, data, dalvik).
2. Reboot in DOWNLOAD MODE and flash the ORIGINAL STOCK android 4.4.2 firmware via ODIN.
3. Root your device and flash via ODIN the custom recovery again.
4. Restore your nandroid backup.
5. Done. Good luck :highfive:
Hello Joku,
Thanks a lot for the reply, i fixed the issue by formatting the internal sd, wiping all (system, data, dalvik) and then restoring the nandroid backup, now all works.

Not possible to do a complete backup under Recovery TWRP

Hello everyone.
I am new owner of an S7 Edge and so I root it is ok!
I have installed a recovery version 3.0.2.4 this is ok too but I have a concern to make a full backup.
1 - When starting recovery I have a screen that says "Installing zips or operations via adb may change the system partition".
2 - When I want to do a backup I have these 03 options that are checked.
Booting
System
Data
But when I drag to make this backup I have error messages
Here are the images to better understand.
I think I have forgotten something, could you orient me please?
Thank you for your help.
encrypted data...... so if you want do a backup try out flashfire......
Working fine with flashfire !!
But there is still the solution of real recovery?
How to decrypt the data?
To make a backup?
Thanx !
1. Reboot to TWRP, Wipe > Format Data > Type 'yes'. This will wipe all the data on your phone including internal storage.
2. Don't reboot, and flash either SuperSU or one of the zips from here (latest version would be preferred). Since you have to wipe your internal storage in the previous step, put the zip in your external sdcard beforehand or flash it through adb sideload if you know how to.
Be careful when flashing stock firmware with odin, as it will automatically encrypt your device again. After you flash stock firmware, reboot directly into download mode again, flash TWRP, reboot to TWRP, and then follow step 2.
Hi !
I will download a stock rom in case of problem and I come back to give the results.
Big thanks !!! :good: :good:

How can I install Oxygen OS 5.0.1 with an unlocked bootloader?

Good day!
Our country just received the Oxygen OS 5.0.1 update.
How can I install it with an unlocked bootloader?
I was going to relock it but I found out that if I did, my data will be gone.
The only difference in the set-up of my phone from a stock OP5 is the unlocked bootloader.
Flash through stock recovery

What do you mean?
I tried to update my phone using the normal way but after downloading and tried to install it, it failed because my bootloader is unlocked.
I just made a backup of data using codeworkx recovery. Copied the backup (Along with the files on userdata I wanted to keep) to my PC.
Wiped all and formatted data. Then installed Oreo and copied back the files and data backup from the pc to the phone and restored data with codeworkx recovery again.
Then flashed magisk 15.2 and rebooted.
Everything working fine now.

I managed to flash Nougat without locking my bootloader. But I also had to Format the Data partition to make it work. I used Titanium Backup to backup the data of the Apps and Myapplist to make a list of the apps. After installing Oreo I only needed to spent 1 hour to restoring the app data.

This is what I did:
Downloaded OnePlus5Oxygen_23_OTA_028_all_1801031502_04d7cc5. zip, twrp-3.2.1-0-universal-codeworkx-cheeseburger.img and Magisk-v15.3.zip.
Rebooted to TWRP and installed the Codeworkx TWRP using the Install->Image option inside TWRP.
Rebooted to TWRP again to make sure that my TWRP was updated.
Entered WIPE from TWRP main menu and used the 'Format' option to Format the Data and typed 'Yes'
This deleted my Internal Storage so I had to backup everything beforehand.
Then used advanced wipe to wipe Cache and Dalvik.
Mounted the internal storage by using the Mount option from TWRP main menu.
I was having problem copying files to the internal storage so I rebooted TWRP and the problem was fixed.
Copied the OnePlus full update and Magisk zip file.
Installed the OnePlus full update and Wiped Cache and Dalvik and rebooted the device to make sure that the OS boots.
Then rebooted the device to fastboot to flash Codeworkx TWRP again because it was unavailable.
Booted into TWRP and flashed Magisk.
I am now on Oreo and I hate the way Ambient Display looks right now.

I honestly dont see a big difference yet, but only had it for two days. Feels a bit snappier, my signal a bit stronger, and probably an improvement with battery life. I had issues upgrading but then again I flashed the wrong version of magisk. I think the most important thing is the latest android security update.

You can ask that question on the TWRP thread. May be they can answer it correctly. I guessed that twrp-3.2.1-0-universal-codeworkx-cheeseburger.img was for both Nougat and Oreo and that is why I used it. So, if you want to be sure you should ask that on a TWRP thread.

Hello, I was reviewing the process and just downloaded everything onto my computer and transferred onto my phone but have a few questions regarding some of the steps.
* Rebooted to TWRP and installed the Codeworkx TWRP using the Install->Image option inside TWRP
** Can I update TWRP via the official app and is that version of TWRP okay to use over the "twrp-3.2.1-0-universal-codeworkx-cheeseburger.img"
* Entered WIPE from TWRP main menu and used the 'Format' option to Format the Data and typed 'Yes' / This deleted my Internal Storage so I had to backup everything beforehand.
** How, what and where did you back up your data? Because later you mentioned "deleted my Internal Storage". I am guessing that because the OP5 does not have an external SD card everything is wiped and the new OS 5.0.1 needs to be saved onto a computer and then re-transferred back onto the phone. I am also guessing that the backup will need to be saved onto a computer as after wiping the phone it would also delete that file too, correct?
* Mounted the internal storage by using the Mount option from TWRP main menu.
** I am assuming that this option after the data wipe is self explanatory?
* I was having problem copying files to the internal storage so I rebooted TWRP and the problem was fixed.
** This is what makes be believe all the files should be on a computer. How did you reboot and when you did, does it go directly / back to TWRP?
* Installed the OnePlus full update and Wiped Cache and Dalvik and rebooted the device to make sure that the OS boots. / Then rebooted the device to fastboot to flash Codeworkx TWRP again because it was unavailable.
** I am guessing here that once OS v8 is installed the TWRP img is no longer on the phone. I would need to transfer the TWRP back onto the phone then re-flash? Could I just install the TWRP official app and flash that way?
Thanks

* Rebooted to TWRP and installed the Codeworkx TWRP using the Install->Image option inside TWRP
** Can I update TWRP via the official app and is that version of TWRP okay to use over the "twrp-3.2.1-0-universal-codeworkx-cheeseburger.img"
* Entered WIPE from TWRP main menu and used the 'Format' option to Format the Data and typed 'Yes' / This deleted my Internal Storage so I had to backup everything beforehand.
** How, what and where did you back up your data? Because later you mentioned "deleted my Internal Storage". I am guessing that because the OP5 does not have an external SD card everything is wiped and the new OS 5.0.1 needs to be saved onto a computer and then re-transferred back onto the phone. I am also guessing that the backup will need to be saved onto a computer as after wiping the phone it would also delete that file too, correct?
* Mounted the internal storage by using the Mount option from TWRP main menu.
** I am assuming that this option after the data wipe is self explanatory?
* I was having problem copying files to the internal storage so I rebooted TWRP and the problem was fixed.
** This is what makes be believe all the files should be on a computer. How did you reboot and when you did, does it go directly / back to TWRP?
* Installed the OnePlus full update and Wiped Cache and Dalvik and rebooted the device to make sure that the OS boots. / Then rebooted the device to fastboot to flash Codeworkx TWRP again because it was unavailable.
** I am guessing here that once OS v8 is installed the TWRP img is no longer on the phone. I would need to transfer the TWRP back onto the phone then re-flash? Could I just install the TWRP official app and flash that way?
Thanks

You have to flash TWRP by going to fastboot mode .
If you are rooted only then the TWRP app works

Yes I am currently rooted. Once I flash the new OS will I still have root access to use the TWRP official app? Is that why after flashing new OS you need to flash TWRP via fastboot?
What about the backing up? I also have full titanium, thanks.

After flashing the new rom you will be flashed stock recovery and you have to flash it through fastboot and flash magisk again.

Hello, I followed the following instructions:
4. Entered WIPE from TWRP main menu and used the 'Format' option to Format the Data and typed 'Yes'
6. Then used advanced wipe to wipe Cache and Dalvik.
7. Mounted the internal storage by using the Mount option from TWRP main menu.
8. I (also) was having problem copying files to the internal storage so I rebooted TWRP and the problem was fixed.
9. Copied the OnePlus full update and Magisk zip file.
I went to install the update w/in twrp and now I get an error message:
Updater process ended with ERROR: 7
Error installing zip file '/sdcard/oneplus5oxygen_23_OTA_028.....
What happened? Anyone please help...

I received the following tip
"Wipe data and then copy the rom full zip flash it boot it to the starting screen then boot to recovery and then flash magisk ,you will see no errors."
But this makes no sense to me.
I have formatted my phone / wiped data / have the full rom & magisk on my "/sdcard" / went to install zip via TWRP, selected the rom and received the error message.
I decided to just go and upgrade via OTA and that failed. My phone has rebooted back to stock
what am i doing wrong?

Cant root OP5 with android 9.0.3?

Hey,
So i wanted to update my android to pie and after updating i did the whole magisk method like i use to
But the thing is that after a restart both my wifi and LTE didnt work.. I kinda like the new android so i was wondering if theres a fix for that.

Im not sure what instructions are you talking about but this isnt the first time i root my device.
Im using TWRP 3.2.1 since the last version giving me a little problems when trying to root. Im using the last magisk version.
About dirty or clean.. I first tried just flashing nornal from the OTA and then after it worked (no wifi or LTE) i tried to do factory reset and root again

Try flashing this first https://sourceforge.net/projects/cheeseburgerdumplings/files/16.0/cheeseburger/recovery/
Download ota again and clean flash it from the recovery.
It might be because your TWRP isn't compatible to Pie. Most people here including me tried codework's TWRP and it solved any of our issues.
Edit: after flashing magisk reboot your phone once more. (i didn't knew it before. I booted into my os and checked magisk app to see if root was successfull but it didn't show me. I wiped everything down and flashed magisk again. Same thing happened. Rebooted my phone and saw root was on )

Edit:
Wait the wifi and the LTE problem can be caused by the recovery?

I would suggest do a complete clean install (wiping everything but USB OTG) and making sure you got the latest TWRP from blu_spark or codeworkx. Also flash it following these instructions:
[Clean Flash] For Users with an Unlocked Bootloader and TWRP Recovery:
- Download the full ROM zip from the downloads section above
- Transfer the zip to the root of your device's internal storage
- Only needed if you are coming from Oreo or if you use an old TWRP recovery that's not the latest and Pie compatible: Remove the compatibility.zip from the downloaded full ROM zip with either MiXplorer or Total Commander (not with any other tool!) on your device itself
- Reboot to TWRP recovery (make sure you're using siankatabg's TWRP if you're on Oreo or codework's TWRP/blu_spark TWRP if you're on Pie) and take a nandroid backup of your existing ROM
- Flash Magisk Uninstaller (recommended)
- From the TWRP menu, Wipe > Advanced wipe > Select dalvik-cache, cache, system, vendor and data> Swipe to wipe
- From the TWRP menu, Install > Select full ROM zip (modified one with compatibility.zip removed, in case you're on Oreo or unmodified one, in case you're on Pie) > Swipe to flash
- Flash the latest stable Magisk in case you want to root
- From the TWRP menu, Wipe > Advanced wipe > Select dalvik-cache and cache > Swipe to wipe
- Optional: If you wish to decrypt, format data via TWRP (please note that wiping the data partition, which we did in the 5th step above, is not the same as formatting it) and after that flash Disable DM-Verity and ForceEncrypt 2.0 (OP5-5T-Treble).zip from here
- Reboot

For the "Clean" Install given that OnePlus5 doesn't have external microSD storage, will ALL data (photos, documents etc) on the phone be erased in Step 6 above?

No, it wont because all of that is stored in the Internal Storage. So as long as you don't check that, you will still have your data. However, I personally wipe everything including the internal storage when moving to a new rom. I prefer to start with a complete clean slate but it is optional.
