Hey guys, I'm a longtime XDA browser but hardly ever post. I have the MXPE rooted with the newest TWRP build and has been running great since I got it. last night flashed the Deodexed 6.0 build from AICPs 5.1.1. I had some issues with the SD card being mounted as internal storage and erasing something so I tried to flash back to stock as my nandroids weren't seen as usable.
Long story short when I flashed back to stock, the recovery would never take. I've flashed the stock recovery and twrp to no avail. For some reason it wont actually stick. Everything else is back to stock but that. When I used the win toolkit and tried to flash twrp again it said something about the folder locations so I'm wondering if I messed something in the partitions.
Question is, have you guys ran into this issue or have any insight on where to go from here? I've looked around but I couldn't find a post that the same as this issue. As a side note, I can get into the bootloader just fine.
I appreciate any info that someone can provide.
Flash twrp. Reboot back to recovery from recovery. Reboot system.
Hopefully it's that easy. Stock os flashes stock recovery on boot. Rebooting recovery from recovery prevents that from happening.
From TWRP:
"Note many devices will replace your custom recovery automatically during first boot.... Once TWRP is booted, TWRP will patch the stock ROM to prevent the stock ROM from replacing TWRP. If you don't follow this step, you will have to repeat the install."

Thanks for the info ffejy462. What happens when I try to flash TWRP and it doesnt stick? I know for a fact that I can boot into it temporarily with fastboot boot and the recovery file. Should I just flash it from there?

I'm sorry I didn't see this sooner. Flash recovery with fastboot. Boot into recovery. From reboot menu in recovery, select reboot recovery. Twrp will patch so recovery isn't lost again.

That did it. thanks alot ffejy462!
Hi guys, been using my rooted but otherwise stock OOS rom with TWRP and Magisk for the past few weeks. Today I decided to take the plunge and try either the Lineage OS or Resurrection Remix roms.
I'm using the latest OFFICIAL TWRP.
So I decrypted following the instructions to flash "no-verity-opt-encrypt-5.1.zip", then format data. All went well, so I then sent over the ROMS I wanted to try out. I started with the official ResurrectionRemix. Bootloop. Then the unofficial LineageOS. Bootloop.
Ok, well I guess I'm not gonna get to use any of the cool new OS's for awhile. I'll install the full stock firmware zip so I can have a working phone again. Bootloop.
Now when I say bootloop, the phone is booting to the BootAnimation and just repeating it. It shows the proper boot animation for whatever zip I have installed (resurrection/LOS/OOS), but it stays on there for up to 20 minutes before I have to hard reboot to the recovery again.
I decided to install the stock recovery trying a few methods. I first tried the ALL-IN-ONE tool. It said it flashed the recovery fine, so I booted to the recovery and after staying on a black screen for too long, the language options came up and I sighed a breath of relief. But before I could select English with the volume buttons, it rebooted by itself. It did this again when I manually entered recovery. So I figured maybe the tool flashed the wrong version, so I googled stock recovery for OnePlus 5, I found a few random links for stock recoveries for the OP5 and flashed them, but they more or less do the same thing or not boot at all.
I've tried changing the filesystem for both Data and System using any combinations of EXT4 and F2FS. Everything results in boot animation bootloops.
I have been flashing Roms since the Samsung Galaxy S3 and every phone since and never had any problems.
Currently when trying to install the stock Full OOS official zip with TWRP, the phone won't even go to the boot animation, it only goes to a black screen with the top LED in a light blue color.
I have also tried every version of TWRP there is for the OnePlus 5. Unofficial, Official, 3.1.1-0 and 3.1.1-1.
So I guess my question is....What filesystem is each partition supposed to be on and for which OS?
Lineage based:
System: ?
Data: ?
OOS Based:
System: ?
Data: ?
And any ideas on getting my phone running again?
And anyone have an official confirmed working version of the stock recovery? The one from ALL-IN-ONE TOOL doesn't work for me. It loads the language selection, then the screen goes black with a light blue LED on the top of the phone.
Actually I'm getting that on some roms instead of the bootanimation, like FreedomOOS. What does it mean when you have a black screen and a white LED?
Man, I really thought I was getting somewhere. If I boot into TWRP, change the Data partition to "F2FS", then flash the stock recovery, the stock recovery will boot, however, when inside the stock recovery and I try to flash the stock zip, it says "Flashing, don't turn off your device" for about 5 seconds and then goes back to the list of roms on the SD card, not having flashed anything at all.
Ok, I have the official stock recovery from the OnePlus site, but still can't use it. Here is was happens depending on how I left it with TWRP:
System: F2FS
DATA: F2FS
- Stock recovery will load after some time, freeze, then the screen goes black with white LED on top.
System: EXT4
DATA: F2FS
- Stock recovery loads fine, I can go through the settings and install from SD card, but when I do it says "Flashing, don't turn off your device" for about 5 seconds and then goes back to the list of roms on the SD card, not having flashed anything at all.
System: EXT4
DATA: F2FS
- If I try to flash stock rom through TWRP, it just boot loops on the animation forever.
I have now also tried flashing the stock boot.img, but no difference.
I have 2 things you can try!
First, replace the bootloader with stock and do a factory reset:
1. flash the stock recovery over
2. then in fastboot mode enter, fastboot oem lock (This forces the phone to wipe cache and data, and also do a complete reset)
Did it work? if yes YAY if not go to Second!
Second if your system.img is ****ed up you have to replace it!
Download the newest version of the stock rom from oneplus link here
Unpack it
research how to use an extractor to convert the system.new.dat to system.img
once thats completed enter fastboot mode and flash the new system.img over with Fastboot flash system system.img
now go into recovery and do a factory reset and wipe cache, and dalvik
Please reply back wether or not this work
"Ihave 2 things you can try! First, replace the bootloader with stock and do a factory reset..."
Is the bootloader simply the boot.img?
After doing the first thing, it simply says that the device is corrupt and will not boot. But it is locked again.
But I will have to unlock it again to do any further flashing.
Hmm, I think I may have gotten it. After unlocking again, flashing the stock recovery and boot.img, then locking again and wiping in the stock recovery, I have finally booted into the stock rom.
I still have no idea what went wrong, and I really want to know, so that in the future I can flash other Roms, like LineageOS.
I mean, I followed the steps exactly.
If it says the device is corrupt it simply means you got something else besides stock rom.
So now unlock it and try the system.img instead
It was because I still had TWRP with the stock rom.
I got it working though, thanks for your help.
Do you have any idea on what might have went wrong when trying to flash the lineageOS based roms and why it got messed up so royally?
Great to hear you fixed it ^_^
Probably some minor bug, if you wanna try installing lineageos again use the 3.1.1 TWRP build that supports backups and do a full backup so you don't have to go thru all this again
---------- Post added at 12:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:13 AM ----------
Not really just try again but remember to use TWRP 3.1.1, as 3.1.0 don't support backup and probably have been part of your problem
If your trying again and gets it successfully installed could you do me a favor and test if Drivedroid works on it? And pm me the result, I'm looking for a rom where Drivedroid will work... Haven't found one so far
You know, I did do a backup with the OFFICIAL TWRP, but it also resulted in a bootloop. I made the backup after decrypting, so I don't know why it bootlopped.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/development/rom-unified-lineageos-7-1-2-t3635483
Is this the one you tried installing?
I tried like every ROM at one point yesterday, but I think I started with
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/development/rom-resurrection-remix-n-7-1-2-t3636578
Did you remember Gapps?
Also in some cases its better not to root before you have the custom rom running, you usually only need a custom bootloader like TWRP
Yeah, I tried with Gapps, and I never rooted before first trying to boot.
As of yesterday Ressurrection remix, released the first official stable build so try again your should'nt have any problems if you follow the guide 100%
Ever find a solution? I'm stuck here now. Can't get any ROM to boot up, they all get stuck on the boot animation
Bump. I am also stuck in this state
I'm having a very difficult time getting this phone setup. I can get very, very close... but then it starts boot looping into recovery.
So starting at the beginning, here is what I did:
- Booted up phone, make sure it works and connects to wifi (I find out later that it got encrypted, even though I didn't set a PIN).
- Inside the OS on first boot, I install and use the official bootloader unlock APK from Asus.
- Rebooted into the bootloader and fastboot flashed TWRP.
- Rebooted into TWRP and flashed the Oreo modem, current unofficial Carbon OS 6.1, nano gapps, and magisk 16.6.
- Rebooted and the Carbon ROM logo comes up. It works for about 2-3 minutes, then reboots.
- After many attempts to decrypt (and a lot of help from the forum), I successfully restore the phone to "WW_ZE552KL_14.2020.1712.85_M3.10.47.15_Phone-user.raw.zip" with the Asus tool.
- Phone is fixed and booting again to the OS, but I'm back to square one.
Second attempt:
- Thinking I need to flash the raw Oreo ROM (instead of just the Oreo modem), I use the Asus tool to flash "WW_ZE552KL_15.0410.1803.55_M3.10.47.19_Phone-user.raw.zip"
- The phone works fine and is now an Oreo ROM with an Oreo modem
- It's still unlocked, so I rebooted into the bootloader and fastboot flashed TWRP.
- Rebooted into TWRP and flashed the current unofficial Carbon OS 6.1, nano gapps, and magisk 16.6.
- Rebooted and the Carbon ROM logo comes up. It works for about 2-3 minutes, then reboots.
- After the reboot, it goes to TWRP... whether I just let it boot on its own, or press power when it says: Start - Continue to boot >
What am I doing wrong?
You're having a rough go at this one eh.
I know we talked about this before, but did you try a factory reset and wiping cache/dalvik before rebooting?
Yes. As we discussed before, you can't wipe cache from TWRP. So I'd wipe dalvik from TWRP, then reboot to the bootloader to do a "fastboot format cache".
I'm going to try a different ROM later this afternoon. Maybe that will make a difference.

Hello! I've been able to boot any ROM by:
1. flashing TWRP
2. rebooting to recovery
3. installing the ROM zip
4. rebooting to bootloader
5. fastboot continue
But when I restart the phone, it always boots to recovery(TWRP), so I have to repeat steps 4 and 5 to boot the ROM, which is
Could you try and tell me if it works for you too?
I'm gonna take a moment to read about the boot process in depth, as it seems there is no straightforward solution to this out there.

1) Flash Oreo RAW (can be downloaded from @Saktis_STi' s unlocking thread.
2) Boot till system
3) Flash TWRP
4) Flash ROM, Magisk, GApps
5) Reboot
The reason why it reboots to TWRP is because of 'encryption' thingy.

many many thanks! I was able to get Ressurection Remix working by now
your steps were right, and I will detail them better to tell how I made it work for others reading this thread:
1) Flash Oreo RAW
1.1 - @Saktis_STi's thread is a bit outdated. I downloaded the newest firmware from Asus website.
1.2 - I also had to find a recent recovery.img, which I think I got it from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone-3/how-to/original-recovery-img-boot-img-zenfone-t3572188
1.3 - I used the stock recovery's adb sideload to flash the stock ROM
2) Flash TWRP - all good here
3) Flash ROM, Magisk, GApps
3.1 - I wiped system, data, cache and dalvik.
3.2 - I flashed RR ROM, GApps and Magisk (EDIT 2: install all three before the first custom ROM boot, or GApps won't work)
3.3 - Performed a Factory Reset
4) REBOOTED TO GLORY!
For what it seems, the stock ROM encryption that is performed on the stock's first boot was the enemy.
Now one last thing... In Security -> Encription, my device is NOT encrypted.
Do I run the risk of ruining everything if I encrypt it?
EDIT: No, it didn't break, working fine

Hey guys,
I just oem unlocked my new 6T and have access to the bootloader. As I try to install TWRP with
HTML:
fastboot boot imagename.img
my computer says that it pushes the image just fine, but my phone restarts and then never makes it past the fastboot splash screen instead of loading up TWRP.
I was following the fajita (6T) instructions from the lineage OS website.
The first time I did it it worked, but following the instructions on installing lineage and telling me to wipe and format data, both the recovery seems to be gone and i cannot fastboot boot into TWRP.
Can you help?
Seems the same with what i experienced. Have you tried installing a fastboot rom? I had my oneplus 6t bootlooped into fastboot mode even if i try to turn it off, it just boots back automatically to fastboot mode. Last resort was to flash a fastboot rom. That worked for me.

What TWRP version are you trying to install?

I tried 3.3.1.1. and 3.2.3.0.
What you are describing, I'm going to assume you are trying to install Lineage 17. You can't install TWRP if you are going Android 10, at least that's the conclusion I've come to at this point in time. It will fail to boot or end up in crash dump mode every time you try and enter recovery if you are on a custom ROM. If you are on Android 9, it's not an issue. I believe it's OK stock as well, but I don't know haven't tried, haven't been stock in a long time.
For LOS 17, only boot the TWRP image, never boot to recovery, never run the TWRP installer. You will likely still have to format data.
I have a post here, from when I had a similar issue. (instructions)
You'll notice the OmniRom instructions don't mention installing TWRP, only booting it.
Once I was in your spot, I always went back to stock using the fastboot ROM, installed TWRP, updated (still using TWRP), then started over with my install.
Well no, i was actually trying to install Lineage 16, which is Android 9 I believe.
The problem for me is that I do not get to the point where TWRP opens after "fastboot boot"ing it. So I understand, I should use a fastboot stock ROM? Is there such a thing? Where would I find it? Or would it be an OnePlus Oxygen ROM that I can fastboot?
Quickest way to start over:
To get back straight your gonna need to access a Windows PC, and run the MSM tool. Make sure you install both OnePlus and Qualcomm drivers. ( Don't wait for Windows, just pre install the drivers) here are some links. Not my work. Please be sure to thank the developers for creating and hosting these tools ?

Were you on Android 10 before (OOS)? That will do that. LOS 16 is Android 9 and should have no problems installing TWRP or booting to it.. For LOS 16 I'd go back to 9.0.17, then install LOS 6T.
I posted these LOS install instructions a long time ago for another user.
Remember the MSM Tool will relock your bootloader so if something goes wrong the MSM Tool is your only choice. That is why it is always the last thing I resort to.
Thread to get Fastboot stock Roms if you want to try that route first.
Hey guys,
thank you so much for all your help. I've managed to use mauronofrios workaround here on xda to put my phone in a 9.0.17 state again (no idea what i had originally), and this way i could fastboot the twrp image again. so that worked fine, but so far flashing lineage hasnt worked, for whatever reason it seems to boot into a lineageos kind of recovery only (which i didnt even know existed).
So i guess in terms of this thread the problem is solved. Thank you again!

Did you see my Lineage install instructions above? LOS installs its on Recovery when you flash the ROM. When om Android 9, boot TWRP, flash the TWRP installer, reboot to Recovery, install LOS 16, flash the TWRP installer again (replaces the LOS recovery that was installed), reboot to Recovery, install gapps / magisk if desired, reboot.
Read my instructions post though, the first time install is different, as you need LOS on both slots. Updating is different as well, its much easier.
It should go smoothly.

Do I need to be on Android 9 Stock when I start that process? What I did was boot into TWRP, flash TWRP installer, reboot into recovery, then format and wipe ALL partitions (except USB), then reboot into recovery again and then flash LOS, flash TWRP, reboot into recovery, flash LOS, flash TWRP, reboot system. Still no luck...

Wiping, Dalvik / ART, System, and Vendor is generally a bad idea. You can do them in certain situations, this isn't one of those situations you should be wiping those though. Factory reset, means the slider on the main page of the wipe screen that says swipe to factory reset, format data is the button that says format data. Don't do anything extra. If you did, yeah I would go back to 9.0.17 using the fastboot rom again, that will put everything back on both slots.
like OhioYJ stated, don't use advanced wipe. re-run the msm tool. Then follow his instuctions. You shouldn't need to preform any manual data wiping. The process of flashing will do everything required. looks like you're almost there
Thanks guys. I will try it out and let you know.
Edit: So I finally managed to properly install LOS - OhioYJ, your instructions worked! I installed 9.0.17 and went from there without wiping any additional partitions.
One questions remains: in your instructions you mention that after installing LOS once, you can update LOS as normal and you mention doing it via the recovery with flashing TWRP or GAPPS later again. Is it possible to do the update via the normal update function of LOS as well? Or will that overwrite TWRP?
You guys are awesome. Thank you so much for your help!
I seem to be stuck on the fastboot screen as well. Being on a MAC, anytime i try to do something in fastboot it goes straight back to the fastboot screen. I Thought I was on Android 10.0 trying to install recovery for that lead to bootloop of fastboot, tried using the Pie recovery and same thing. I am open to suggestions.
Thanks.

Yeah it starting to seem like it maybe isolated to Lineage. You cant install TWRP with LOS 17. Someone else mentioned in the Omni thread that it worked. This thread is about Lineage, but that should be clarified, or clearer.
Today I finally made the step of switching to a custom recovery/rom on my Xiaomi Mi 9T. The first and last time installing a custom rom (2 or 3 years ago on ZUK Z2) was quite a long time ago, so I checked several videos showing bootloader unlocking and all those steps.
one video used orangefox and I tried to flash it onto the device. The guy in the video used Yuware to flash orangefox and it successfully flashed it and I could also boot into it. For my Z2 I used a usb-c to usb-a connector and I would have gapps, rom etc on a USB drive. But I didn't have one on me so I booted into the phone to place gapps, rom and vendor (new to me) by dragging the files onto the phone storage using my PC. Once I booted into recovery the custom recovery was gone and it went to MI recovery 3.0
I tried to flash TWRP with ADB and Fastboot, and I managed to do so but still, when I wanted to go back to TWRP after booting into the phone it went back to MI recovery.
This is really annoying and there are some similar posts on forums but I haven't found a solution. I hope somebody can help me

Right after flashing TWRP from Fastboot, immediately reboot to TWRP:
>> fastboot oem reboot-recovery
You must enter your Android unlock pin for TWRP to be able to access Data (and Internal storage)
After those two steps TWRP should stay - if still not (?!) you would also need to flash lMagisk patched boot image or flash Magisk from TWRP (with that, TWRP will definitely stay, it always does ) or VBMeta ((I'm not familiar with, never used, google about)

Really appreciate your effort, but it did not work :/. The command let TWRP boot and also asked for my pattern. But when I turned it off, and went into recovery mode it just went straight into the mi recovery again.
Magisk is actually a root right? I do not have any experience when it comes to that. If Magisk lets me keep my TWRP, I'd be happy to install it. But will it affect any other apps, causing me to get bypasses and stuff? Because I use snapchat on a daily basis but i'd find it disappointing if I have to get through several fixes if I went on to install Magisk. Or is that something I will just have to accept?

With Magisk hide you will e.g. get SafetyNet to pass, currently it should be failing for you because of detectimg that Bootloader is unlocked (if you are on stock firmware)
everytime i updated the MIUI, the recovery went to stock. then i install twrp, then reboot directly into twrp, then flashed recovery again in twrp, then rebooted...
after this, the recovery did not change to stock anymore.
