Restore TWRP Backup After Testing 4.3 ?

Hey guys...
Before flashing 4.3 STOCK for testing purposes, I wanna know if I can restore my TWRP backup easily or will t be hard with Bottloader n Radio being updated ? I am currently running XenonHD 4.2.2 based ROM all backed up via TWRP and apps+data via MyBackup Pro latest version.
Just wanna make sure before I take the plunge...
Thanks...

I had no problem going back to 4.2.2 on TWRP.
Wipe and restore!

Please be more specific... Do you mean you wiped all (Cache+Dalvik+System+Data+data/media) ? Or just regular Cache+Dalvik+System+Data ? I have everything on PC for safety...
Thanks

The wipe data option. Is this the first time you're flashing a rom?

Of course not... But I usually wipe everything completely after I have backed them up on PC of course... I get confused with the terminology... Is all ....

How about bootloader? Do I need to reflash 4.2 bootloader before going back to my 4.2.2 backup TWRP? I am satisfied with the 4.3 but want to downgrade because of some applications compatibility

The 4.3 bootloader works with 4.2.2. It works ok for me.

Yeah should work fine.
Btw if you miss your custom DPI and Navbar, grab DPI changer app and Ultimate Dynamic Navbar from Play Store...

Impossible to update my One Plus 2 (A2001) to Oxygen 2.1.1 (Bootloop)

Hello, guys! I've a strange problem on my OP2 (A2001).
The new update seems impossible to install on my phone, i've tried all the guides that i've found online, but nothing, everytime is a bootloop. I've tried installing the full rom 2.1.1 in twrp, after that i've tried the full rom 2.1.0 with the ota package, so i've tried the same two things unrooting my phone and with stock recovery. The only way to boot my phone is to install the version 2.1.0.
The last solution that i've not tried is to wipe even data partition instead only system, cache and dalvik.
Someone has the same problem? Have you found a solution?
Thank you

My upgrade sequence
1) copy 2.1.0 full file (1.1 gb) and the ota update file 44mb file to device
2) like always, take a nandroid backup
3) Dont wipe anything. Add 2.1.0 zip + 2.1.1 ota zip + supersu 2.49 zip to flash queue and flash them all together.
4) wipe caches. Reboot.
It worked for me and retained all my data.
All the best. :good:

I've followed your sequence nothing (again bootloop)... is there any difference between supersu 2.46 and 2.49?
Thank you!

You should be on LP 5.1.1 and then use TWRP Recovery 3.0.2.0 by Nick Verse. Then wipe Cache , Dalvik Cache , system and data and then flash this Rom as well as the Gapps which you like. Done:good:
