You said you are on marshnallow.. Detailed step below.
1. Update to the latest nougat firmware using ota. Because lateat firmware is needed for oreo roms. Else you will face tons of bugs and problems.
2. Download recovery from same thread of the oreo rom you are using. Oreo roms need vendor partition, so it needs recovery that supports it.
Download the rom and gapps also.
5. Copy the rom, recovery image and gapps into the memory card. Boot into fastboot mode. Connect to pc. You can boot to fastboot by using command "adb reboot fastboot" without quotes.
4. Unlock the bootloader by connecting to pc via fastboot.(steps to unlock is given in the xda guide section or k6 power.)
5. Boot into twrp recovery image using fastboot. Your phone will reboot to recovery.
6. Using recovery install the recovery image from it by going to "install option" then selecting file type as image and selecting recovery image file.
7. Reboot recovery.
8. Format data to remove encryption. After that you can access internal storage. Wipe data, cache, dalvic cache, system, data and internal storage.
9. Flash the rom file. Flash the gapps.
10. Reboot to system from twrp.
If you can understand any steps above you can google. If you cant understand google, then forget about doing it. Because you will eventually break your phone. Give it to someone who knows in that case.
Lol I will not brick my device.I can get back to marshmallow anytime!The only problem I was having before was the device wouldn't show anything(0mb) on internal storage on booting in the ROM.Is this normal.Maybe the ROM is encrypted.On nougat this is not happening on any ROM.Currently Iam on nougat(stock).It shows internal storage only after formatting data but reinstalling the ROM and booting again in recovery it shows 0mb on internal storage.

Reinstalling the rom means it is again getting encrypted. By default encryption is on in stock rom. So you have to format data to break encryption. Otherwise you cant access internal storage. You need latest firmware (nov security patch) for oreo roms.

Hi,
so i followed the steps to flash android on my nexus using ClockworkMod recovery.
I did the following steps and now I am stuck. my phone wouldn't load and I cant do anything about it
1. Bootloader was unlocked and I installed the clockworkmod recovery.
2. backed up my phone
3. I copied the ROM zip file to storage of the phone. (I cant find it through recovery now)
4. rebooted into recovery mode
5. did the nAndroid backup (which is not working now and hence my phone is spoiled)
6. performed complete wipe of the device including factory reset, cache partition and dalvik cache.
the problem is that I cant restore the nAndroid backup which i created using the recovery any more. I also tried mounting the USB storage using recovery but it still doesn't work.
I am also not able to see the phone as a Storage device in my computer any more otherwise I could load the ROM file again and try.
Please suggest any ideas or solutions.
Regards
error while restore
Whenever I am trying to restore the backup it shows error "MD5 mismatch"

Okay, first what rom are you flashing. And did you do a factory reset in the recovery before you flash it?
By flashing in custom recovery means you are flashing an unofficial version of KitKat, because normal you use fastboot method to flash the factory image from Google. Try using this stock rom from fireb33: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2010887
Secondly, did you flash the latest version of CWM recovery: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2198942
If you used latest recoveries and factory reset, and it still doesn't boot, then backup your nandroid and use the fastboot method to flash the factory stock image (link in my sig).
To backup your nandroid, you need to locate where it is and use "adb pull" command, try this: adb pull /data/media/clockworkmod/ C:\backup\
The MD5 mismatch means your file is not original or corrupt, it could be due to various reasons.
Nexus devices do not have microSD card so they cannot use the mount USB storage feature.
I am willing to bet most of your issues could be avoided by using TWRP recovery instead of CWM. Get it here: http://techerrata.com/browse/twrp2/mako, flash it in fastboot by "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img", it is not compatible with CWM nandroid.
If you neeed to send certain files to your phone, don't forget the sideload feature if you want to flash a zip file from your computer. Enable sideload in your recovery, and type: adb sideload *.zip

the only optionyou have is to flash a factory image through fastboot..head over here --> Click Me
i downloaded the factory image from google extracted then did the same fastboot flash as the 4.3 but switched the names to the files in the krt16o zip. it worked perfectly for me. tried using wugs toolkit and everything went to crap. i say do the same method as 4.3 but rename all the files accordingly.

this post HERE saved my life
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:

I installed twrp using adb in my lenovo k4 note (A7010a48) after which the internal memory of my device reduced to 450 mb from 16 GB and I installed official resurrection remix in it. Though the storage option from settings shows 16 GB memory out of which 14 GB is used by system while in twrp it shows only 450 mb. Now due to this I would like to reinstall my stock ROM and stock recovery and get my storage and volte back. Please tell me if there are any ways. Also when I try to open my recovery there is a black screen only. Thanks in advance.
Actually that happened for me too.. I found that it happens when I unlock the bootloader, boot to recovery , deleting "boot_from_recovery.p" and WITHOUT flashing super su nor booting to system, directly flashing any other twrp recovery or wiping the Dalvik cache, system, data, the recovery finds our sdcard (internal storage) partition as 774 MB or in your case 450 MB. So to get rid of these things, flash s232 firmware again unlock bootloader, boot to recovery, delete the file "boot from recovery.p", flash SuperSU, clear Dalvik cache and cache, let the phone boot to system ( normal startup) and then reboot to recovery and voila! You will find internal storage as usual .:good:

Is there any way I can skip flashing the firmware and do this with the custom rom installed? Also, where is the "boot_from_recovery.p" file located? xda says /system but I can't find it there.

Try factory resetting from twrp as mohan mentioned above.. if it did not worked, probably that's the only way.
Figured out how to get rid of this issue: After installing stock rom, unlocking bootloader and flashing TWRP through ADB: you have to reboot into system (stock ROM), go through the setup and only then are you able to go back into TWRP to wipe and flash the custom ROM of your choice (in this case RR, without having full internal storage).
regarding internal storage issue
Is your solution will fix my internal storage problem
Fixed it for me so yes
While flashing RR, I also ended up in the same position. Here's how I fixed it:
1) Post flashing RR, goto bootloader and flash recovery-mohan-n.img
2) reboot to recovery
3) click on wipe and then select format data (option next to advance wipe).
4) Once format is complete, go back to main screen and Reboot to system.
Hence the problem shall be resolved.
PLS HELP!!!

I formatted it now i have more space free.....But internal storage is not detected.....I cannot take screenshots and all ....i cannot open camera ....and when i open file manager its failing to detect internal storage.........
I tried to flash xXx_NoLimits_4.4_OP5_Oxygen_OB01_full (1) my op5 got into a bootloop. and theres nothing left in the phone. twrp shows nothing. cant copy any file from pc when i try to shows an error that cannot copy item-the device has either stopped respondingor has been disconnected.
You can't reboot into bootloader?
Probably best to factory reset through twrp, flash oxygen is 4.5.14 to go back to stable os.
I don't think this needed a new thread^^
Boot into twrp, wipe using "format data" which will wipe your internal storage (since you've already lost your files, you won't lose any now :3 ). And your phone should boot after that. Switching to oreo from nougat needs a "format data" as of now, afaik. Also NOT using the official twrp is recommended.
What TWRP version did you used?
If you've lost everything then just do a "fastboot -w" from command window, then "fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img" (With whichever TWRP build you want to use), then reboot into TWRP and it should appear on your computer as a mounted drive, then copy your stuff over and flash it using TWRP.
Well, the title is misleading. I didn't expect a query.
P.S.: Best to post in the dedicated thread for the ROM. There are more people that can be of help.
Boot in twrp and go in wipe section on twrp and tap on format data then type yes and your phone recognized back on pc and you will be able to copy files on it :good:

Boot fastboot, flash stock recovery, boot it, erase and wipe every thing, boot fastboot, flash TWRP 3.1.1 , copy your rom and flash your rom.
Sorry for my bad english
Go to TWRP, Wipe then to Advanced wipe, Click Data then choose Repair or Change File System, Change file System. Click EXT3 then Swipe to change. after that choose EXT4 and Swipe to Change. hook phone to pc/mac and tranfer your file zip to your phone and reflash it. *this might or might not work. everything will be deleted from phone*.

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.

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.

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

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?
