Yet Another Bootloop Thread

Hello,
So I decided to unlock and root my Pure today. Originally I was going to flash Lineage, but I later decided not to. Anyway, I was following the instructions here.
So I unlocked and installed TWRP succesfully. Then I decided to root. And that's where I screwed up.
Following these instructions, I now have a phone that won't boot past the "M" logo. Apparently my mistake was not using the current SU version.
I have been Googling for an hour now, but almost every solution I've come across has involved plugging the phone into the computer. My issue is that my computer isn't recognizing the phone when I plug it in, so my knowledge of how to fix this is limited (and my expertise in this topic was minimal to begin with...). I can get to recovery mode, and have tried a factory reset. No dice. I also put the latest official factory image from Motorola on the SD card, but when I went to install it, it wouldn't show up.
As you can tell I am quite stuck here. I haven't tried to root a phone since my Incredible back in the day. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Did you use TWRP to make a nandroid backup before attempting to root? If so, just restore it.
If not, you're going to have to either fastboot flash it back to stock. More info in the firmware thread.
Or you could give a custom rom, or this TWRP flashable stock rom a try. I've never used the TWRP flashable stock rom, but it might be an easy way out of your predicament if you aren't comfortable and familiar with fastboot and want to stay stock.
For future rooting attempts of the stock rom I'd recommend Magisk. It always works systemless, so there's no need to force it to install systemless like SuperSU. Just flash the zip in recovery and install the Magisk manager from the Play Store and you're rooted. No more soft bricks.

Ok, first, thanks for the response.
I think somehow I didn't actually install TWRP. Not sure how.
I followed that thread link and tried everything, but to no avail. Maybe I was doing it wrong? I did this:
- Downloaded everything under "6.0 MPH24.49-18 FIRMWARE"
- Put it on my SD card
- Booted into recovery
- Selected Install from SD Card
And there was nothing listed. I tried the same with the "6.0 MPH24.49-18-3 FIRMWARE".
I also did the "AutoFlashFirmwareScript", but I'm assuming that didn't work since I can't turn on USB Debugging. Is there a possibility I somehow wiped the entire OS and there isn't anything to boot into?

okay so you are wrong here..
firmware needs to be flashed via fastboot they are not available in flashable zips they are .xml file.. you need to follow the instructions given here
https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x-style/development/firmware-moto-x-style-pure-stock-t3272486
or if you want latest firmware of any version of style or pure
download from here

This definitely seems helpful, but when I tried it gave me a bunch of Failures.
For "fastboot flash partition gpt.bin":
Code:
fastboot flash partition gpt.bin

sending 'partition' (32 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.006s]

And then a Failure for every command from "fastboot flash boot boot.img" to "fastboot flash system system.img_sparsechunk.8" (the build I used doesn't have sparsechunk 9 or else I'd assume that would have been a failure as well). It is encouraging to know I can at least somewhat communicate with the phone, for some reason yesterday I couldn't even do that.

Cannot Boot TWRP Recovery After Unlocking Bootloader and Successful Flashing Recovery

Hi, I'm having issues with booting recovery.
I've successfully rooted my phone before, but because of an OTA update, had to revert back to the flashing of recovery (TWRP), booting recovery, then flashing Magisk steps.
So, I have my recovery.img file which I renamed to "twrp.img" (no double twrp.img.img file extensions). It looks like I'm able to flash it successfully, giving something that looks like this when I run "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" (in the directory where the recovery image is located):
target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
sending 'recovery' (24496 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.530s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 0.156s]
finished. total time: 0.691s
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
​
However, after I try the "fastboot boot recovery twrp.img" command, it gives me:
cannot load 'recovery': No such file or directory
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
​
When I try to restart into recovery, it just boots into stock recovery, and not TWRP.
Any help would be super useful, I'm really not able to figure this out. I've done a lot of research, even going through disabling/uninstalling the Kedacom USB drivers and turning airplane mode on and installing adb/fastboot drivers from XDA.
Thanks!

Why are you flashing two recovery images? Maybe I'm missing something but I'm not understanding what it is that you are doing.
Your problems could also be related to whatever version of TWRP you are flashing on whatever OS you are running. Maybe there is a compatibility issue between the two but without more specific information it's pretty much impossible to say.

I'm just flashing one recovery.img file (TWRP), which doesn't display any errors in the flashing in command line. But when I try to boot it in command line, it gives me the above error that the recovery doesn't exist. When I try to boot it by advanced restart -> recovery, it just takes me to the stock recovery.
I'm on Oxygen 4.5.14. Let me know if there's anything else I can provide.

Rename your Recovery file to twrp.img
Seems like you forgot to do that according to your command

Edit:Sorry I kind of Missed that its already Done
Please Ignore My Upper Message
Possible another Solution:
Download Another Recovery File and Do the Same again

I've renamed the file since, and it still has been a problem.
Both recovery.img and twrp.img and the original name of the file "twrp-3.1.1-cheeseburger-84-20170820-194433-CEST.img" wouldn't take.

The file name is irrelevant. But it seems like your command to boot into recovery is the problem: fastboot boot only takes one argument (the file to boot into) whereas the fastboot flash command takes two arguments (partition and file to flash).
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot boot twrp.img

Okay, I'll give that a shot but I'm still booting into the stock recovery when I advance restart into recovery.

bought a oneplus 2 with 3.6.1 OOS and cant flash twrp to recovery part

newbie to a oneplus 2. I acquired this phone locked and with OOS 3.61. been doing some searches but apparantly not enough and not getting very far.
Actions performed so far
set oem unlocking in dev-options to enabled.
rebooted to fastboot
"fastboot oem unlock" was succesful and rebooted and completed setup
rebooted to fastboot
from fastboot installed twrp "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" (recovery.img being twrp-3.2.1-0-oneplus2.img)
results:
C:\platform-tools>fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
target reported max download size of 536870912 bytes
sending 'recovery' (22180 KB)...
OKAY [ 0.624s]
writing 'recovery'...
OKAY [ 1.310s]
finished. total time: 1.934s
:end results
then boot directely to twrp with "fastboot boot recovery.img"
performed nandroid backup.
rebooted device and tried booting to recovery but still has oem recovery.
any ideas? would like twrp native not via fastboot only.
thanks in advance.
Update solved:
booted twrp from .img file and installed su.zip and installed twrp.apk and used the app to install twrp. works now. not sure why it was saying it was working from from fastboot and writing but hope this helps someone else.

TWRP 3.2.1 doesn't work properly yet on the OnePlus 2 for some reason. I can assume that you wanted root so I can give you 2 options:
1) If you want to stay on stock OxygenOS 3.6.1 or a custom rom Nougat or lower, then flash TWRP 3.1.1
2) If you want to have an Oreo rom, then you have to get your hands on the unofficial TWRP from anupritaisno1. The download link for that on his forum doesn't work so if you want, I can link my Google Drive.

This is my first time trying to root my android and I am having the same problem with my oneplus 2 3.6.1 OOS. I have successfully unlocked oem but can't seem to flash twrp.
I have downloaded twrp 3.2.1 on my desktop and renamed it to "recovery".
I used the same command "fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" but it just says "error: cannot open 'recovery.img' "
Can you please tell me how you managed to install twrp and root your android?

you need to downgrade the OOS to ver 3.002 or 3.1, then you re-unlock the bootloader then flash twrp recovery.
Finally flash your phone with root of your liking.

Phone stucks in fastboot

Hi guys,
i was on Miui Global 10.xxxx (dont know exactly)
bootloader was unlocked.
Rollback protection target was 1
my recovery was Orangefox recovery (https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-9t/development/official-orangefox-recovery-project-t4037899)
I have made a full backup of all partitions before.
I wanted to flash Miui 11.0.4.0 global to flash a custom rom.
First i flashed recovery and installed the recovery.zip.
That worked fine.
Then i wanted to flash Miui 11.0.4.0 with this instructions for a clean flash:
1. If you're coming from another ROM or need to perform a clean flash:
Boot into Recovery
Wipe Data/Cache/System
Flash vendor/firmware (Global 11.0.4.0 recommended)
Flash ROM
(Optional) Flash Gapps (not included!)
(Optional) Flash the latest Magisk
Reboot
Enjoy
This instructions are from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-9t/development/rom-stagos-t4072637
So, i was in recovery, and deleted data, cache and system.
Then i restarted the phone to go to recovery, but that didnt work.
It stucked in bootloop.
I now reinstalled Adb and fastboot, and erased recovery and System partition.
There were much errors in time due old adb and fastboot version etc....
But now iam at this point here again.
wait for your answers how to continue.....
It looks like just flashing or booting recovery is not possible without system partition.

It's now too late and sorry I don't want to risk to give you the wrong instructions how to unbrick
But for the others to avoid similar brick:
1) You say you were on Global MIUI 10 and you wanted to update to MIUI 11.
If so, why didn't you simply update by OTA?
2) If for some reason you were not able to apply OTA, but if you were really on Global (not on custom ROM, Indian ROM or so) and wanted to update also to Global (not switching to EU weekly or so), then you shouldn't wipe anything
You had to flash the stock Recovery back, to download the Global recovery/zip package you wanted to update to, and to force update from System Update: (so called Local Update):
https://c.mi.com/oc/miuidownload/detail?guide=1
Now, once you wiped things and bricked, I don't know but you could check the Fastboot method:
https://c.mi.com/oc/miuidownload/detail?guide=2
If reading from mobile phone, force Desktop site in browser for the two links anove

1. When you make format data, than reboot in twrp again
2.when boot second time, wipe data, dalvick, cache, system...and flash new rom.
If you wipe system partition and reboot in twrp again without system, you get fastboot.

Sooo....after hours of reading with errors over errors and fixing, it still doesnt work.
First i tried to flash everything via mi flashtool.
There was an error: Antirollbackcheck Error.
https://www.reddit.com/r/Xiaomi/comments/d0xmbp/what_on_earth_is_miflash_antirollback_check_error/
https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads...nd-flashing-recovery-fails-please-help.51349/
To fix this i had to move the Tool and the rom into my C hard drive next to program etc folders...
Then i editet the flashall.bat file and removed the rollbackcheck lines.
Now after doing this, it flashed for 100 seconds, and then there was this error: Failed to flash dtbo.img
sooo....Then i tried to flash the dtbo.img and all the other ones via Minimal adb and fastboot.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-9t/help/flash-stuck-fastboot-soft-brick-t3962662/page3
And this didnt work for me too. Everytime if i try to flash dtbo.img, this error comes:
target didnt report max-download-size
sending dtbo (32768KB)....
FAILED (command write failed (no error))
finished.
Now everything is like before....

Flash twrp and boot in twrp. After phone boot in twrp, make format data. After format, make reboot to recovery.
When booot in twrp, wipe data, dalvick, cache, system , copy Miroom to internal and flash ROM.
Use this twrp...
https://app.box.com/s/8lkfbft44vldtt0y8kwhe6un87b5ebzx

When you flash recovery, hold volume up and type in adb

FINALLY it worked YES
FIRST: The Story for everybody who has the same problem like me:
Device: Xiaomi Mi 9T
Firmware: MIUI 10 GLOBAL
Antirollbackprotectioncounter: 1
Bootloader: Unlocked
Story:
At the beginning, everything was working, but i wanted to install a custom rom (STAGOS)
For this step, i had to Update my Miui firmware on 11.0.4.0.
But this step didnt work so well via device OTA (error), then i decided to install it via custom recovery.
I still had the stock recovery on my device, so i went in fastboot mode, and installed Orangefox recovery via ADB and Fastboot on Windows. That worked without problems.
In Orangefox, i wiped as sayed in instructions data, cache and System. then i rebooted.
But before realised that was the wrong way, i stucked in fastboot.
No tools helped. ADB and Fastboot didnt work as seen in screenshots.
I tried everything via fastboot....
fastboot flash recovery XXX.img
fastboot boot XXXX.img
Fastboot format.....etc
But NOTHING worked. Everytime there were the following errors:
Target didnt report Max download size
Error: Cannot load recovery
No such file or directory
Error: Download size is higher that allowed
Failed to load boot image (Load error)
Command write failed (no error)
and some other ones too.....
It looked like, some flashes worked and some not. Sometimes it worked, sometimes not.
After some new tries it just showed via the command: Fastboot devices
????????? fastboot
That problem has been solved. Just unplug the device and wait for 10 minutes until it shuts down automatically.
If that doesnt work, you can try to replug it to pc some times again.
It looked like replugging and using different USB Port (one user solved the problem via USB 2.0) helps to get a better connection and prevent errors.
Then i tried some tools, for example android all in one tool, but no one worked.
After this, i reinstalled the driver and installed MI Flash tool (https://mi-globe.com/download-xiaomi-mi-flash-tool-all-versions/)
It looks like there are some mi flash tools around here which are not working right, but THIS one worked for me.
After installing, i connected my device, choosed the fastboot firmware (.tgz), unpacked it and choosed the right location in mi Flash tool.
Firmware files are find here: https://c.mi.com/oc/miuidownload/detail?guide=2
(You should check you Antirollback counter before to avoid a brick. Here you find some informations: https://www.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-anti-rollback-protection-brick-phone/)
DONT FORGET TO CHOOSE IN THE RIGHT DOWN CORNER: CLEAN ALL !!! (normally, clean all and lock is choosen, but that bricks your device)
After doing this, i started flashing, but there was an error: Antirollbackcheck error.
I solved it via moving the mi flashtool directly into my C hard drive, and deleted some lines in the flashall.bat, as seen in post history here.
Then....it worked for some seconds longer, but than: Error: Failed to flash dtbo.img
So i tried it via ADB and Fastboot. But nothing changed.
Then i tried flashing via mi Flash tool again, and this time the following error comes: Failed to flash system.img.
After this is thought: hmmm....something is very wrong with this device....lets try again, after a device restart.
So i tried again, let it running for ~360 seconds, and IT WORKED!
At the End: there was the following error: Error: Not catch checkpoint.
But this error (you can also see in a screenshot) it not necessary.
This is the result of removing some lines in flashall.bat.
After this my phone successfully booted im Miui 11.

[ROM][STOCK][FASTBOOT][OP8] Stock Fastboot ROMs for OnePlus 8

Things are changing with the advent of project treble and seamless updates. OnePlus will no longer release ROMs flashable via recovery (either stock) because is no more needed. The updates will be done on the slot not used for example if you are using slot a the update will be installed on slot b and the slot b will be set as default. If you brick and you are in bootloop how you can restore the rom? You can't with Stock ROM you have, because the zip can be only installed via Update Engine, so what can you do? Flash a stock rom via fastboot. I have extracted all images from the stock zip and i have made a new zip with the Fastboot ROM with a flash-all.bat included. This will work only if your bootloader is unlocked. This will erase all your data and will wipe your internal storage.
HOW TO FLASH
This version is only for not branded devices
Download the zip;
Unpack the zip in a folder;
Reboot the OnePlus 8 in fastboot-bootloader mode (Power and volume + and volume-);
Connect the OnePlus 8 to PC;
Run flash-all.bat flasher you need;
Wait until the process end;
The phone will automatically reboot.
DOWNLOAD
All roms on Sourceforge: https://sourceforge.net/projects/fastbootroms/files/OnePlus 8

Branded devices is for example a Chinese version with HydrogenOS to which OxigenOS has been installed? If so, how can a branded device be recovered?
Thanks

Hi guys, i'm here again to ask for your support, actually with android 10 Google introduced a lot of changing, from dynamic partitions to the new keymaster 4 encryption/decryption. Teamwin is working hard to update TWRP but they will still take some time. Currently some things already work but there are difficulties in bringing them to the OnePlus 8/8 Pro, for example decryption already works but creates some problems on the OnePlus devices. That's why I decided to create a Paypal moneybox to be able to bring you the latest updates in the shortest time possible. As I have previously done, I assure you of a support of at least 2 years (within the limits of my possibilities). In addition to the TWRP I will improve the fastboot roms and add OnePlus 8/8 Pro to my TOOL ALL IN ONE (and maybe I will also bring the RevengeOS). By getting hold of a OnePlus 8 or 8 Pro I will also be able to improve the TWRP for OnePlus 7T and 7T Pro.

If you are unable to participate in the PayPal moneybox, you can make a normal donation (perhaps specifying that it is for the moneybox), however all private donations that I will receive for this or other projects will be included in the moneybox.

Branded devices is for example a Chinese version with HydrogenOS to which OxigenOS has been installed? If so, how can a branded device be recovered?
Thanks

I think unbranded devices mean the device bought from T-Mobile or Verizon. Nothing to do with chinese versiion flash oxygenOS, if I'm not wrong.

Can't seem to get this to work. I'm trying to flash a stock rom for my OnePlus 8 after bricking it during a rooting process.
The device' bootloader is obviously unlocked and i can get the phone into Fastboot mode and connected to my PC.
The only issue is when i execute the flash-all.bat file, it can't seem to flash any of the files and gives an error consisting of the message "FAILED (remote: 'Flashing is not allowed for Critical Partitions').
What to do guys? Can anyone help me out.

Does anyone know where to find mobile oneplus 8 5g tmobile from mine is bricked I had same error as post above

Make sure your on the latest update: 10.5.8

Things are changing with the advent of project treble and seamless updates. OnePlus will no longer release ROMs flashable via recovery (either stock) because is no more needed. The updates will be done on the slot not used for example if you are using slot a the update will be installed on slot b and the slot b will be set as default. If you brick and you are in bootloop how you can restore the rom? You can't with Stock ROM you have, because the zip can be only installed via Update Engine, so what can you do? Flash a stock rom via fastboot. I have extracted all images from the stock zip and i have made a new zip with the Fastboot ROM with a flash-all.bat included. This will work only if your bootloader is unlocked. This will erase all your data and will wipe your internal storage.
HOW TO FLASH
This version is only for not branded devices
Download the zip;
Unpack the zip in a folder;
Reboot the OnePlus 8 in fastboot-bootloader mode (Power and volume + and volume-);
Connect the OnePlus 8 to PC;
Run flash-all.bat flasher you need;
Wait until the process end;
The phone will automatically reboot.

If you want to manual flash these roms these are the commands (You need the latest sdk platform tools, you can find it here

REMEMBER
"Invalid sparce file format at header magic" is not an error, you need to wait a bit when you see that string, just wait.
If the device automatically reboot in Stock Recovery mode don't reboot it and wait the flash end.
These ROMs can't be used to update or downgrade your phone but just to restore your phone.
If the rom seems doesn't start go in recovery stock and follow this guideline: English -> Wipe data and cache -> Erase everything.
If you want to rebrand your phone from HydrogenOS to OxygenOS you can follow this guide: Rebrand Guide
If you want you can use also my tool to flash Factory Images, unlock bootloader, flash twrp or to understand if the device is recognized: https://toolaio.tk/

Because it is placed in userdata and not in a dedicated partition

I have an issue trying to flash on fastboot. It's says I can't flash on critical partitions. Yes I know alot of people are saying that but what I haven't seen is this:
This is my problem:
Fastboot get device-info
(Bootloader) device unlocked:true
(Bootloader) device critical unlock: false
(Bootloader) charger screen enabled: true
I have already tried "fastboot flashing unlock_critical"
It says bootloader already unlocked. I then re lock bootloader which I know is not a good idea( reflash stock with msm tool) and it lock then I try unlock critical command again and it still says device critical unlock: false

Try again with 10.5.7. When it reboot to recovery, let it continue to run till it reboots on its own.

Unbrick from fastboot method
I hope I can help someone since I spent the whole night trying various methods to unbrick my Oneplus 8 and only this one worked for me JUST FOR INTERNATIONAL VERSION
You must have the drivers installed (Adb & Fastboot)
You must have your phone with the bootloader unlocked
1.- Download the file
2.-Unzip it
inside you will find Flash-all.bat
3.-Enter Fastboot mode
4.-Double click on the Flash-all.bat command
5.-It will direct you to the recovery, select the English language and restart in fastboot mode so that the process continues, wait for it to finish flashing everything and ready, the phone restarts on the latest version
