This is considered a beta rom. Things may break, things may change, and your phone may brick or turn into a portable toaster. I'm not responsible.
You are flashing this at your own risk!!!
This is a nandroid backed up from a US 2gb/16gb xt1540. It may or may not work on all models...that is to be determined.
Confirmed compatible variants:
XT1540 (US 1/8GB and 2/16GB) (Canada)
XT1541 (UK) (France)
(if your variant is not here it only means it's either not tested or not reported working. please test and report back!)
If you are unable to boot or obtain any signals after flashing this, it is highly recommended you flash a full factory image intended for your specific model and wait for another solution.
This is only meant to be a temporary fix while we wait for the big guys to build us a standard rom.
PLEASE READ THE GUIDE BELOW!!! Some things have changed with v3
How to install:
Extract the .tar.gz archive like any zip
copy the folder to the directory where your other TWRP nandroids are on your internal storage or sd card (TWRP/BACKUPS/ZZY222____/) in here you will see folders with dates, times, rom names and info, etc in the folder names...copy the folder you extracted to this directory.
boot to TWRP
restore this backup
if coming from anything but a previous soak test, wipe userdata
wipe cache and dalvik cache
flash systemless root zip SuperSU v2.61 (optional) DO NOT flash any lower SuperSU version!!
reboot (Please be patient...it's a VERY long wait. If you pass 10 minutes waiting and it hasn't booted, force a reboot by holding the power button)
profit!
***It is HIGHLY recommended US xt1540 users update their radio. It is not required to run this soak test, though. THIS IS ONLY FOR US USERS!!!!! DO NOT FLASH THIS IF YOU ARE NOT IN THE UNITED STATES!!!!***
See this post for the updated soak test modem.img files (just flash to the modem partition with fastboot and reboot the device)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/201...-devs-moto-g3-xt1540-soak-test-files-t3255643
For anyone who is not in the contiguous USA (48 states) but still has xt1540 and would like to test the modem above, you can use the app linked below to back up your modem partition directly from your device before you try the new modem. This way you don't have to download a factory rom to get the right modem.img if you don't already have one backed up on your computer. You have to be rooted to use it.
Wanam Backup & Restore app (free)
How to root:
Please see this thread for the download:
http://www.xda-developers.com/update-to-snapprefs-xposed-module-includes-17-instagram-like-filters
The newest root method provided by chainfire does not touch the system partition. To the end-user, the only change is that when you flash a new kernel you must re-flash superSU....not your rom!!! What this means to us in this case is we can use the stock kernel provided with the soak test, flash the superSU zip, and have root, just like a Nexus device without having to wait for a permissive kernel!
*****After flashing the new systemless root zip you will be prompted to install superSU before the device reboots. DO NOT ALLOW IT TO INSTALL!!!!!! If you allow it to install with this option you will get a bootloop*****
**To view your device storage from your computer, open your notification shade, click the "USB for _____" notification, and select "transfer files (MTP)". It won't stick through a reboot, so you'll have to do this each time you boot.....the same thing goes if you unplug the cable.

Gonna try it on my xt1540. Just one question about the procedure. I just restore backup directly? Without wiping anything? Or should i wipe system at least?

TWRP wipes for you automatically in the restore process. You don't have to wipe system manually. Just restore wipe userdata and reboot!

We will only get an update if our friend who is an official tester shares it with us.
Okay, it worked. I booted up perfectly, but as i needed my phone completely stable for today i reverted back to LP. But it worked well I think ill wait for a stable version though, it kind of lagged compared to LP.

have you tried manually entering your carrier's APN information?
I'm having issues extracting the System folder from the backup.
Any ideas? Trying to cook up a flashable ROM for easier testing.

you can extract with any of the popular file managers for android right on your phone if you'd like. It may take a little longer, but it will work.

Apparently it was just an issue with 7-zip, WinRAR handled it perfectly.
This is my first time making a flashable ROM but it should be up later today.
Hello,
i bought my Axon this week from Amazon Warehouse.
My problem is, that im not able to update my ROM.
I tried OTA, Install over Recovery (SD-Card), Install over Recovery (ADB Sideload).
All methods failed..
OTA is downloading the update, rebooting and than crashing. Hard to tell why, because i dont see any error logs. Just the information "Update Failed".
Next method i tried was to install over SD-Card. I downloaded the Update from ZTE, moved to my SD and tried to update. But my Smartphone always tells me "Couldn't mount /sdcard".. I tried to Format it with extFAT and FAT32 but both failed.
The last method I tried was using the ADB Sideload. I tried it with the update file, and also with the STOCK-Rom from this site: https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/how-to/download-center-factory-images-ota-t3606547. But also i get an error message.. ADB tellst me "Total xfer 0.00x"...
Have i bougth a bricked Axon? Can I update somehow to the new version?
I have the option to send it back to Amazon, but it was 100€ cheaper, so i would love to fix the problem.
Kind regards,
t4ggno
Recovery stock and SD card seem to be the most reliable method.
Did you check the md5 of the zip? Also update.zip to put on root of the SD card should be the final zip, not the zip that contains another zip.
Also when booting in Android, I assume your SD is recognized, isn't it?
If so, instead of going to recovery then update from SD card, you can try to update from inside Android, from Phone settings, then Update item.
The phone should indicate the current version and the version to be updated to. Then follow the phone indication to update.
Nope, i dont checked MD5. But shouldn't be the problen. I tried many different update files, always same error.
Yes, after booting the SD card is connected and i could use it. Just the recovery mode cant mount the card.
Also the updater recognize my update. But he just boot in the recovery mode and try to update -> Same error: "couldn't mount /sdcard"
Edit 1:
But i can check the MD5 files if necessary. I just need the "correct" MD5 value to compare.
Just a guess:
Is your micro SD card size greater than or equal to 128 GB? Some version has this bug, size less than or equal to 64 GB should work better. To try if this is the case.

Why are you using an SD card though? Put it in the root of the internal storage and it will surely pop up, then try again from Updates, not the recovery (and get the SD off the phone to avoid the phone from detecting the zip there)
Otherwise root and get TWRP and flash Tron1's stuff

Hm, last time it only recognize the update file on my SD card. I will try it tomorrow again and will post the result.
TWRP isnt a option, because i dont want to lose my warranty. Also i read that TWRP can be incompatible with Stock-ROM?!

I don't know where you read that, but the closest answer that I can give you is: if you don't install SuperSU, Magisk, or the dm-verity patch, TWRP will get replaced with the stock recovery and you'll have to flash it again (~2 minutes anyways). But it is in no way incompatible. Also you can relock and stuff, but yeah better keep the warranty at least until you're sure that your phone is good.
You unpacked the zip that you downloaded right? to get the update.zip inside? Or did you download it from raysteff's thread? It should work anyways
Another thing: What is your phone's model (G, U, chinese) and what is the update that you're trying to install? I guess it will fail if it is from another model, and if you're trying to jump fron a very old MM build to a very new N build it will probably fail too. Keep that in mind.
First, what is the version of your device?
I'm guessing you are using a chinese device with modified rom. Those units can't install updates unless you first restore to original chinese rom.

I didnt unpacked the folder. A recovery normally installs zip files?! The zip file isn't packed twice. The zip contains the files directly.
I tried the package A2017G-MM-B11 and A2017G-N-B01 from the link I posted, also i tried the oficiell patch files from the axon website (B10 and Nougat)

I have a A2017G (that information i found on the back of my phone).
My phone overview tells me:
Modelnumber: ZTE A201G
Build-Number: ZTE A2017GV1.0.0B08
Android-Version: 6.0.1
Security-Patch: 1. December 2016
I can try to install the B09. Probably this patch is required to go to version 10 (and than to nougat)?
Don't know if it applies to your situation, but when the OTA for 7.x came out, there was a bug that would not allow the update to be applied if there was an SD card installed. I know I had to pull my card to get the update to take. Might try running the OTA without the card installed and see if it works.

No, B09 was a patch only for Spain.
The zip you download from the ZTE website has a bunch of numbers as name and has an update.zip inside and a PDF or sth like that. The one you have to flash is the update.zip inside, just sayin'...
If you download the zips from raysteff's thread they are already unpacked.
Try installing an older zip, like B03, then B10

The big problem still exists -> I cant mount my SD card in recovery mode, so I cant install any patch.
I really want to try B03 as you suggested, but i am unable to install it.
I will search another SD card an try to use it. Probably my SD card has some problems.
Edit: I download my files from these side: http://www.ztemobile.de/support/downloads/?product_id=2100
They dont contain a update.zip. Only many .dat, .bin, .img and .mbn files.

But install it from the internal storage and with thr Updates option on Android itself... You need to put it in the root of the internal storage or it most likely won't find the zip

Thanks! That worked very well. I did a factory reset and moved the update file directly to the root of my internal storage. After that the updater detected my update and I could install the Patch B011. After that i was able to update to Nougat trough OTA. No errors, every worked fine.

You'll need to be on your PC for this. Make sure you backup anything you want to keep from Internal Storage:
OOS:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/how-to/oneplus-5-mirrors-official-oxygen-os-t3628190
1) Wipe and Format everything in TWRP.
2) Move OOS 5.1.3 (Full Zip) to Internal Storage
3) Install 5.1.3 and nothing else (You will lose TWRP, but don't worry abut that now)
4) OTA up to 5.1.7
5) If you don't get offered OTA to 9.0.1 use full zip from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/how-to/official-oxygenos-4-5-2-7-1-1-ota-t3627003
6) Once on OOS 9.0.1 you can use Fastboot to flash latest Codeworkx TWRP: https://sourceforge.net/projects/cheeseburgerdumplings/files/16.0/cheeseburger/recovery/
If you want to install a custom ROM after that:
7) Wipe and Format
8) Install Pie ROM/Gapps etc

I downloaded the file from ROM 5.1.3 on the phone and again it returned the same error, I will try one more time.
Please give me your opinion, is there any version of TWRP that is recommended for installation? is it not the version I'm using that might not be reading the file?
Anything else, do I need to install 5.1.3 exactly or can I get a version prior to it?
There's something wrong in the middle of it, but let's keep trying.

I'm currently in version 4.3 Magisk, I think this can make it easier to find a possible output or end up making it more difficult.

Maybe you can try with this recovery: twrp-3.2.3-0-20181031-codeworkx-cheeseburger.img
And see if it works.
Otherwise I would recommend to download OxygenOS 5.1.4 and try to flash that.

4.3 xXx magisk means you're running a stock oxygenOS where xXx 4.3 mod is running. Do you remember which oxygenOS version it was? 5.1.4 5.1.7 or whatever?

It could make things easier. If your phone still boots into OOS, go into Setting and scroll to the very bottom and select About Phone. Look at what Oxygen OS you are running. What you need to do is get that version all the way up to 5.1.7. Once you are there, you can just flash 9.0.2.

This is the problem, I can not get out of the ROM No Limits to go to another ROM, I've tried some suggestions but still nothing worked, I'm counting on the patience of the members here of the forum to help me with this problem, but I believe that will soon be resolved and thank you all for the help.

Ok, so you're on a patched xXx rom not stock rom with xXx mod. Weird setup
Anyway, did 5.1.4 sucessfully flash without error 7?

I have not tried to install 5.1.4 yet, I was trying to 5.1.3 as it was suggested, I will download version 5.1.4 that is in this repository (https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/how-to/oneplus-5-mirrors-official-oxygen-os-t3628190), and I will try to make the installation clean, ie format all the data, move the ZIP into the internal memory and try to see if it works.
I will try to clarify about the patch in case I try to reinstall ROM No Limits I need to install the full version which is 12.0 and patch 4.3 is just an update patch for the latest version and I can also go back to version 12.0.
Version 5.1.4 I have not yet tested if I can install it without errors, I will do it soon and I will come back with the result.
I think 5.1.4 should do the trick. I would highly recommend you wipe everything including systems, internal and data. This will pretty much give you a blank phone. Connect the phone to your computer and copy over 5.1.4 to the internal storage through TWRP, it should be the only file you see in your sdcard. Flash it and you should be good.

Okay, I'll do the test and I'll come back soon with the result, I'll change the version of TWRP too, this may be the problem.
Bringing the result of a few more tests, I first changed the recovery version, I went to the twrp-3.2.3-0-20181031-codeworkx-cheeseburger.img as suggested and after that I formatted all the data and started to appear a new one Error that was Failed to mount '/ vendor' (Invalid argument), I tried to install the 5.1.3 ROM and also to 5.1.4, which it was indicating was installing but at the end of the installation again I returned the error Failed to mount '/ vendor '(Invalid argument).
After that I reinstalled ROM No Limits 12.0 v. 5.1.3.
Does anyone know how to solve this new error?
Hi,
I just flashed the latest stock update.
The problem is that I can't decryt my data in TWRP, and hence cant flash anything from internal storage.
Is there any TWRP build that supports encryption/decryption ?
A Taiwanese regularly compiles TWRP up to date with the security updates on Zentalk (TW). You can check this MEGA folder every month he uploads to. The latest one works with .339
In case you cant fix it, next time make sure that you flash the files in this order: rom, magisk, decrypt.zip

Sometimes people actually want their data encrypted, so that's more like a dirty fix.

What is the difference when applying in rom, magisk, decrypt compared to rom, decrypt, magisk?
I use the latter method always because that is recommended by this guide:

Thanks. But where's the guide or howto, that the title says ?
I flashed your patched boot image, but no Magisk is detected in either stable or canary Magisk Manager. There might be an issue.
EDIT: Confirmed that the issue is on your end. Patched the image myself and flashed it, with Magisk being detected by Magisk Manager.

Download the full OTA zip, keep it in internal storage outside any folders.
Go to System -> System Updates
Click the gear icon, select local upgrade
Then, select the downloaded Full OTA zip.
Install and reboot.
Done.

If you updated to the Indian/Global 11.0.1.2 before doing this, you only have 2 options:
1. Wait for the next OOS update, but when the Indian/Global update comes, don't update.
Instead, wait for the full update zip of the EU to be available, and then follow the steps in the previous comment.
2. Unlock bootloader, flash the full OTA zip of any variant via fastboot, and relock the bootloader.

Your file did not work for me but i modified the stock file from the first post myself and that worked. i guess there is something coded into the file by magisk that is depended on the phone.

I'm on Kb2005 and I'm only able to get an incremental update. Can I pull the bin file from that update
Was there an OTA specific to models outside of the U.S.? I see at least two variations are already getting an update but nothing is available yet for my US (KB2005) variant I got today.

I have KB2005 as well. No updates for me. I tried to just boot the images posted in the other thread with no luck.

Unless OnePlus is very different from the other major manufactures, you definitely do not want to use a patched boot image from a different model variation of software/firmware. At best it will cause major issues.. At worst, it will brick it.
If Oneplus is different, I would love some feedback on why and what they do from other users.

Correctish, you don't want to flash it. You can just boot the image. If successful it'll just boot the phone. If unsuccessful it will hang and you can just force reboot. No damage can because because it's not writing the boot image to the phones storage. Kinda like booting from a flash drive. The code is
Code:
fastboot boot /path/boot.img
If you boot a patched boot image you will have access to a rooted phone until you reboot. I.E. just enough time to flash magisk on the installed boot image.
Hope that makes sense.

I am familiar with how it works but with brands like HTC and Samsung, if we use a boot.img from a different variation, it will not work or even brick it. Thanks for the heads up! It sounds like there is more room for error for testing with OnePlus and modifying the system.
Can someone please provide a link to the Magisk Manager that 's working with this bootimage?
Edit: Found it, got root but it doesn't pass SafetyNet...

Which one was it? My Magisk is not working either. I assumed it was because the kb2005 was only an incremental update. I have the canary version from github. Is there another for oneplus?

Don't know for KB2005, mine is KB2003.
I used stock boot.img from OP and patched it myself, all already patched files didn't work.
