Fix for people with a corrupt EFS (No network connection or bluetooth)

A few people have had issues with the EFS getting corrupt or wiped on their OPO before they had a working backup. This guide has so far worked for 4 people to restore their EFS allowing them to access mobile data and bluetooth again.
Note: I really don't know why this works, I have contacted the dev of this rom to ask if he has any ideas but still waiting on a response.
1. Flash official TWRP
2. Flash this ColorOS rom using TWRP - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2772627 (you can skip all the account setups if you want)
3. Factory reset
4. Boot and setup ColorOS (you should see a network connect now with your sim card inserted, you will need to toggle mobile data on to test that)
5. If you have data in ColorOS you are good to flash back to CM11S anyway you want (you will need to factor reset after flashing back)
6. Save yourself the headache in the future and backup your EFS
Please post if this fix works for you.:victory:
Edit: I've went ahead and downloaded the ROM and I will hold on to it incase the original mirrors go down for some reason. Please PM me if they do.

One of the ones who can confirm this works. Will post in the official thread.

Worked for me also.

Wholy moly ... I have a mobile data network !!
Still on ColorOS, but this is VERY promising !!!
IMEI is correct, it's the one on the box !
Still no WiFi nor Bluetooh mac addresses, though...
Will keep you posted, but this is a HUGE step forward !
Thanx a lot for sharing this !
BTW, serial number is still unchanged and correct.
JP.
EDIT:
Unfortunately it didn't fix my issue, back to CM11S I am greeted by an AudioFX FC... Device pretty much unusable, the FC pops up the milisecond you click OK ...
Will try a different ROM...
EDIT 2:
SlimKat, CM11 Nightly both boot to the welcome screen, then reboot about 1 second later.
Only ColorOS seems to actually run ?!
A bit disgusted right now

Odd, maybe you could try using TWRP to delete everything again including system, then sideload and boot ColorOS.

To add to that you can just boot the unofficial recovery using "fastboot boot recovery.img" to do your efs backup if you would prefer to keep the official TWRP installed. That way it only boots that recovery to allow you to do the backup of your EFS partition and doesn't erase your current recovery. That's how I did it.

WOW thanks, i do it and and i tell you how did it go in a few minutes.

I see that the OP has been thanked and this thread has a few success stories so I am giving it a bump for others to view in case of the same issue.

I just flashed the factory image... I never had the problem again

Im having the same problem as you have Yank555. It started with the AudioFX FCs rendering the device useless.
Next i tried to reflash the standard CM11s 25R rom back to get my phone normal again, it didnt work.
Then i remember i have a nandroid from a few days ago. Not thinking to read up on known issues with the OPO EFS i tried a restore.
My EFS is gone and the phone will not work unless im on ColourOs120. Wifi doesnt work, just basic phone functions.
Still waiting for a miracle for this problem.
Any suggestion guys?

Did you open a service request ? Any response ? So far all I got 5 days later was a "please fastboot flash factory images, case closed." which quite obviously did not help, so case reopened, but again nothing from them in 4 days, now.
But I wonder if my first thought is still correct, flawed emmc as flashing seems to work ... might be a radio hardware issue ? Just don't quite get what the AudioFX has to do with that... cause simply rooting the device and installing apps and making a few nandroid backups is no way to brick anything.
But anyway, tbh, OnePlus is mostly dead to me as a company, worst invest ever so far, nice if your device works, but service is not even close to bad, it's pretty much non-existing ... and for a supposedly "best service ever" it's quite, let's say, "impressing"

Nope, i have not tried opening a ticket, mine is a grey import from China.
There is something terribly wrong somewhere hardware wise. The audiofx problem only happens if i flash the CM11s. After ColourOS i have tried flashing the CM11 M8.
Im also wondering if i should try to use this OPO made rom to see if it can help.

This worked for me! I'm back in business! Thanks guys for getting this figured out, I thought my phone was done.

I hate to bring this back up.
I have a Nandroid of my stock CM11S on my phone. I used it for the update to 300 to get firmware, then made a backup of it and went back to the custom Rom I had been on.
Today, I went and restored the backup of CM11S to sideload the newest update. Weirdly, after restoring I have an unknown baseband. But if I go back to the custom Rom backup I still have a baseband.
I wonder if TWRP just didn't backup the correct partitions? I am on the offficial TWRP. But I do have a backup that contains my EFS backup from the other TWRP that has that option.

I think I know what corrupted my efs....I used the official twrp 2.7.1.1 which for some reason saves modemst1. I remember restoring st1 when I corrupted it the first time with the official 2.7.1.1. Well I did it again trying to restore a nandroid with the official twrp 2.7.1.1. Do not restore the saved modemst1 from the official twrp 2.7.1.1. You will encounter problems.

So, this same thing happened to me...i happily using 30O and not really any issues and getting good battery life~17 hrs w/moderate use. And no other bugs.
Found the 33R update here on the forums and downloaded it and flashed through TWRP.
Thats when trouble found me, lost network and wifi stuck trying to turn on but never finds wifi. Then reading through xda someone suggested to check IMEI and it was gone. I had NOT done any prior back ups other than Nandroid prior to flashing update.
Restore still didn't fix it.
I tried this (flash ColorOS and CM11) but still didnt fix it. I was bummed as my OPO is very new and I had been happy with it.
CM11 or by restore, windows will not detect it even with drivers loaded. Flashing colorOS would allow windows XP to recognize internal and allow me to send files so i tried custom ROMs and CM stock and Mahdi but none worked. Luckily my TWRP still works and i am able to boot and get into fasboot.
I finally got mine fixed with rooted stock 33R from here on xda!
Now my OPO is back in business!!!

Save st1 and st2 with vonnegut's method http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=54623075.. Put it in a safe place for later. I uploaded them to google drive and onedrive . It saved me today.

For those of you that were able to recover, did you lose your entire EFS folder? Mine is completely gone and I don't think this ColorOS trick works either. I've tried it all last night and I fell asleep at my desk

Phone restarts at startup.

Well this is my 1st post so first of all hey everyone
I just spent a week in Amsterdam and my phone restarted twice, different times different days and I dont remember what I was doing with it back then.
But as I landed back home I put the phone back from "Airplane Mode" and went on to toggle "Cellular Data" on.
The second I pressed the cellular data shortcut on my the phone restarted itself but this time whenever it would finish the screen would be on but fully black and sometimes it'll show battery precentage at the top but then will restart again in an infinite loop.
Sometimes it'll pop up the "Optimizing Apps" window and will go through all 24, upon finishing it will restart once more and do the same.
I tried using the bootloader and it worked (the bootloader that is) but the phone would do the same thing even after Rebooting from there or shutting down from there and then turning back on.
I contacted tech support on chat but they couldnt help past telling me to go to bootloader and reboot, said I should factory wipe when it failed.
Also tried wiping cache but to no avail.
I have no backup of my phone (wanted to do one before the flight but got lazy and I suck for not doing one sooner) since probably October and google doesnt backup my contacts properly for some unknown reason.
I already downloaded Android Studio with everything included for me to try using adb to sideload stock without wiping but its my first time and I couldnt get it to do anything at all...
I already got the official stock .gz file from the motorola website.
Anyway here are the specs to my phone:
XT1575
Everything is stock. didn't root or change recovery once in my life.
Was fully updated and had plenty of drive space (I have almost 128GB with the 64GB version + 64GB SD)
I'm really lost here so help will be very appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
-Noam

Start with a full wipe and if that doesn't work flash the stock image. Not sure what your question is though as you never really say. Once fixed I would unlock and make a backup so you don't have to deal with this again.

The thing I pretty much want to know is if theres a way to either backup the phone now with it connected to the computer while in bootloader or recovery. or a way to flash the stock rom without wiping which I read someone did with his tablet. I cant post source normally because I'm a new user so here it is but change spaces to dots: schnouki net/posts/2014/08/13/flashing-a-stock-android-image-without-wiping-user-data/
Also while in recovery I noticed 2 options under wipe: 1. userdata only. 2. userdata+(insert something I dont remember here) and I was wondering what gets deleted in both? if I delete only userdata what data will remain? something helpful?

Sure you can try flashing without wiping data but being locked I personally wouldn't risk it. No idea about backing up in your state... somewhere I remember a thread on backing up without root try searching in q&a.

Out of curiosity why shouldnt I try flashing with no wipe if ill lose the data anyway? worst case wont I just have to wipe after it fails and flash again?
And I will try thank you
Do you have any knowledge about the 2 wipe options?
Thanks in advance

Well I tried turning the phone on and it took a couple of minutes before loading to a fresh start. It apparently wiped itself on its own. Managed to restore almost everything.
Anyhow the phone takes too long to boot now. Was even stuck at boot and I had to restart it.
Anyway to fix my software? Or at least check for corruption?

Stuck at boot screen animation... was working fine!

I'm not sure what happened with my US Axon 7. I was getting it ready to give to my son, and now it won't boot. Even with a full wipe (including system) and reinstall of the OS. It tries to boot, but just sits at the Google animation forever.
Here is basically the steps of what happened during the wipe/install of the unofficial RR Oreo build:
- Wiped everything
- Flashed the B32+B10 bootstack (A2017X_BootStack_B32+B10.zip)
- Flashed the latest (at the time) unofficial RR Oreo build (RR-O-v6.0.0-20180511-axon7-Unofficial.zip)
- Flashed opengapps micro (open_gapps-arm64-8.1-micro-20180512.zip)
- Flashed Magisk 16.0 (Magisk-v16.0.zip)
- Booted up and setup the phone for his google account
- Rebooted multiple times during setup
- Installed TiBu and froze the apps I normally freeze for the kids.... things they don't need
- Rebooted one final time and got stuck on the boot screen
- Re-performed steps above (minus setup... because I still can't get it to boot)
The best I can figure is that I froze something I shouldn't have... but a wipe and reinstall should have fixed that. I don't understand why it wouldn't. I've even wiped system.
I'm going to see if I saved a backup somewhere, as it's not on the phone. I can still get into recovery and such, which is good.

Which apps do you freeze? If you froze some Google apps you can just use the pico package and avoid having to use TiBU entirely
You're saying that after doing the whole installation you set up the ROM, but after you freeze apps with titanium and reboot the phone refuses to boot?

It seems to be that way. I had already installed Magisk, but it's not like I installed Xposed or anything "dangerous" to the operation of the phone. The only thing I can think of is I froze something that kept it from booting. But if that's the case, why wouldn't reinstalling the ROM fix it? Wouldn't that fix anything I changed/froze?

well, if you wiped and installed everything again it should work...

Something must have been wrong with the ROM itself. I don't get it, since it worked fine the first install. I installed AOSP instead and it booted right up. I'm going to take a full backup, freeze the things I normally freeze, then see what happens.

I was having a very similar issue while trying to move to exactly the same ROM. My problem was that I was accidentally encrypting the phone (I didn't realize that this is what the "require pin at startup" prompt was doing). If TWRP is asking you to put in a pin number every time you boot into recovery, then your phone is encrypted. RR ROM (or at least the most common version of it) does not support encryption, so it will refuse to boot.
To get rid of encryption, you have to select the "format data" option in the wipe menu. You can't just wipe the usual partitions.
I can't be certain that this is your issue, but hopefully it helps.

Not similar at all. In your case the ROM would boot fine, but it woupd fail to load your data, so it asks for a password that not necessarily exists. In his case the ROM never gets to boot

You misunderstand. I could only boot RR once, and if I accidentally encrypted the device during setup or afterward, the next time I tried to restart, it would be stuck on the boot screen. All subsequent reinstalls also got stuck on the boot animation since I wasn't removing encryption even if I wiped data, system, cache, etc. Moving to AEX allowed me to boot with encryption, and it was at that point that I realized my mistake. That sounds precisely like what is happening to flapjack, except that the cause may or may not be the same since he got through multiple boots the first time and presumably had already setup a pin/password on one of the first boots.
Immediately after the pin is setup should be when it asks if you want to require the pin on startup (aka if you want to encrypt), so if he opted to do that after setting everything up rather than on the very first boot, he may have exactly the same issue I had.

Weird Issue when Flashing ROM's

I haven't followed development of the 6T since November so please forgive me if this has been answered 100 times.
The steps to flashing custom non-OOS ROM's is to; flash ROM/flash TWRP installer/reboot recovery/flash gapps/flash magisk
The weird issue for me is when I reboot recovery after flashing the ROM and TWRP when I go to install gapps all my files are encrypted. My way around this was to sideload gapps and magisk and everything booted up fine. When I go back to recovery after the first boot all the files are normal again.
This has happened both times I've flashed a ROM.
I'm sure this has an easy answer and it's most likely due to a step I didn't execute properly -- or at all. I did a lot of reading and making sure I understood the process before rooting my device but as far as flashing ROM's I was noticing a lot of conflicting info which I've never seen before on any other device. Anyway, other than this I haven't had any issue.
Thanks for any feedback.

Security issue. Best way around it is to either format data before flashing and/or remove your lockscreen security pin before flashing.

I never use any lock. Always just use Swype to unlock. I'm aware of the issue with using a lock though. I read that people had problems. I just haven't seen where any one brought up my exact issue. It doesn't seem to effect anything so I'm not stressing it too bad. Eventually I'll get around to troubleshooting it.

I've flashed almost every ROM for 6T till now and every time I flash a ROM I'm having exactly the same issue as you. I've also tried formatting data several times, but the issue with unreadable data in TWRP after flashing a ROM returns every single time. I've tried multiple combinations of flashing, wiping etc. and it's always the same. However, what I'm doing in such case is flashing gapps + magisk from USB-C pendrive, no need to sideload, just mount USB and flash files from that as usual. After doing that I can boot to ROM and the data is readable again. I just need to remember to have this pendrive close to me when I'm flashing a new ROM.

Thanks for the tip and info. I don't mind sideloading because it's fast and anytime I mess with my phone it's when I'm at my PC. I've been using adb for so many years it's my go-to whenever my phone is acting stupid.
The second time I flashed a ROM I didn't even worry about flashing gapps, just magisk. And I stacked them. So ROM, TWRP, Magisk. Then rebooted system. I actually prefer this anyway because then you boot straight to the launcher with no setup process. Then I go back and flash GAPPS. I actually have used this flashing process for years because I hate the setup after a first time boot.

Fingerprint reader suddenly stopped- was working this morning!

My phone rebooted on me today while using the flashlight (something that occasionally happens from time to time), and now my fingerprint reader doesn't seem to work.
It says Fingerprint Hardware Not Available when I try to use it from the lock screen. The actual hardware itself is working, as I can still go into settings and try to set up a new fingerprint, it will vibrate and show that I touched the sensor as I move my finger, but then it fails at the end saying "enrollment not completed".
I also can't delete any of my saved fingerprints. It seems to get stuck trying to delete when I click one to remove. I'm thinking some sort of security thing got messed up when it rebooted, and I don't know how to fix it. I am rooted, so I already tried wiping cache and dalvik from TWRP. Not sure how to remove fingerprint data and start over... is there a way to do that?
I'm running the latest PE rom (flashed last week), and no, I didn't flash from Nougat in case anyone thinks this is that common issue some people have. I would try the fix for that, but since it isn't the cause of my problem I'm afraid it might mess things up more. Would really rather not hard reset again, took too long to get my phone set up with everything and paired again.

Reflash PE. If that doesn't work do a clean flash.

Boot into TWRP
Go to advanced>filemanager to acces the files in your phone.
Enter the folder /data/system/user/0
Delete following files: ./fpdata/user.db, settings_fingerprint.xml
Reboot to system and set up new fingerprints with the fingerprint wizard
Everything should work normal
