I tried to restored a nandroid backup which didnt work, I then tried to lock and unlock bootloader thinking recovery would reset original image and that didnt work and now its wiped. Any suggestions as I'm looping into bootloader screen and I cant even push an image using adb.

Yes. But I have no way so far to get an oxygen os rom to my internal storage so I can flash. Just keeps going to fastboot mode.
Did you try reinstalling Twrp thru fastboot?

How would that help if I have nothing to flash? I can get to twrp no problem.

You stated it kept going back into fastboot, sorry if I misunderstood. Your PC should see the phone while in TRWP, try another port on your PC or another cable.

Yes, my phone is wiped and no OS on it either. Thats probably why its going back to fastboot. Is my only choice to unbrick? Which as I'm seeing would require me to go to hydrogen os before even being able to go to oxygen os?

Even with it wiped, if you have TWRP installed and no OS you should still boot back into recovery, not fastboot. I would still try installing TWRP again, use the codeworkx version, seems to work best for most people.

After that I would format data in TWRP, reboot back into TWRP and then copy over a rom. Your PC should see the phone plugged in booted up in TWRP.

You mean I can copy OS 5.0.1 and flash directly to it after I copy it over?
Nevermind it worked, thanks. My whole issue was I didnt know the whole time that my pc would see the device as a directory while in twrp. Now I wonder why originally I booted into a black screen bricked when I flashed magisk 14 earlier.

It's a known issue. You have to use Magisk 15.2 or higher.
If you flash an older version you will get a black screen with a blue notification led.

I actually want to stay close to stock. I dont even want to use nova launcher, I"m staying with OP launcher. So far so good, Not sure upgrade was worth the trouble yet
Hello guys i need an urgent help yesterday i unlocked bootloader on my g5 plus which was running Android 8.1 everything was ok i installed twrp latest version it got installed but when i reeboted to system the twrp gets erased idk how whenever i try to boot into recovery it shows no command sign and then after pressing power button it boots into stock recovery ! Guys can anyone mention me a solution thread or just explain me what to do ! Thank you
Reinstall it, and then boot right into recovery. If I remember, there is a pop up when you go to close twrp and boot to system to keep twrp, or some such nag.
As far as i remember there were 2 files. dm-verity and forced encryption. I never needed them but if you stay on stock you will have to flash those so that twrp doesn't get replaced by stock recovery everytime you reboot. Check the how to root forum you should find more information there about this.
Or you can just root it and twrp won't erase with stock recover.

I didn't either, as you wrote if you boot into TWRP before going to system it should stick or also if you flash magisk before booting the OS.
But there are some devices/ROMs that need the no verity flag to be disabled so flashing this file might help if TWRP won't stick (even when DM verity looks for a tampered system partition in the first case). There are also some terminal commands to do that but I forgot them at the moment.
I mainly used the zip to keep my /data partition decrypted after reformating it. When flashing Nougat magisk did the job for me but when I upgraded to Oreo /data was reencrypted again after flashing magisk and booting into system.
The above zip prevents /data from being encrypted again and may make sure that TWRP sticks.
ahhh, ok I see. Thanks for the explanation.
but ....... I am in twrp unable to reboot into my rom. When I click on Install I see all these folders with letters and numbers and what my original folders.
Can somone help me boot into my rom again?

You will more than likely need to format data. This will cause you to loose everything. But that is what you are seeing, those folders, are your data. Just encrypted.
Also make sure you are on the latest version of TWRP. Sometimes the older unsupported version had encryption errors.
Omg this saddens me! So there's no way I am unable to at least retrieve my pictures?

Simple test are:

Got the same problem, Solved After reboot in twrp and enter the good decryption code
I'm right in the middle of reflashing. I am trying everything else before I do say goodbye to my pictures! :crying:

First time entering in twrp after flashing update, I did not get folder to flash magisk, did a reboot and get it, just a bad encryption code I think
Did u flash rom or anything else before getting this problem ?
Yup, I sure did! 4am couldn't sleep so I thought I would finally put a fingerprint mod on; which I have done this before with no issues. For the life of me, I don't remember which mod I tried to install thru Magisk.
My phone is currently stuck on "Phone is starting"
I also think it's time to look into some sort of automatic back up service..... Got any ideas?

Use msmdownloadtool, have u tried using magisk uninstall in twrp with zip file ? Then boot and uninstall the "****in" fantastic module... maybe it works
I did try to uninstall Magisk in twrp using adb shell. I never had any luck with that msmdownloadtool and not only that it relocks your bootloader.
I usually go this route [ROM][STOCK][FASTBOOT][OP6T] Stock Fastboot ROMs for OnePlus 6T https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6t/how-to/rom-stock-fastboot-roms-oneplus-6t-t3862516

I saw this happen when I used the official TWRP app.
It went away when I used this TWRP. Hope that helps.
I'm glad you already know not to use the MSM tool. Too many people jump straight to this.....
You just need to boot the correct recovery and your data will decrypt, and you will be able to back it up to a PC, then you can reload your ROM via TWRP or Fastboot to get the phone bootable again. So now it's a question of what ROM were you running before. Do you need a recovery with the latest security patch or something older? What TWRP are you running. Try 3.3.1-6 psychen6 linked too first. Boot that image from Fastboot. See if your password/pin will work to decrypt your data.
I recently flashed my 6T to stock from EvolutionX and locked the bootloader, and somehow in the process, it seems my keyboard isn't able to display or type any emojis. The steps I followed are:
HTML:
1. fastboot reboot bootloader
2. fastboot boot twrp
3. flash latest OOS
4. reboot bootloader
5. fastboot boot twrp
6. flash OOS
7. boot system
8. reboot bootloader
9. fastboot oem lock
10. boot system and setup (sign in to google, etc)
Is there any step that I missed, or any way to recover this without rooting/unlocking again?

Reflash your ROM through stock recovery ..
You're missing the reserve partition cause you've flashed through twrp..
If you still dont have emoji
root your phone and flash this module

You could also just run msmdownloadtool, it will reset the device to full stock. There is a version for 10.3.0, just run it and upgrade.

Problem caused: Factory reset in custom ROM, causing the phone to boot into twrp (even when plug in charger)
Method: refer to post #6 below
Anghirrim_shared_drive (Maintained by Anghirrim)
OP: Tried to perform a factory reset on LOS 14.1, it didn't go as plan. The phone boots into twrp, after I tried to flash LOS 14.1 over MM_rootable. The phone keeps booting into twrp, even though there is a ROM installed.
I assume I messed my boot partition tho?
Did more searching on this issue, from other model of phone also experiencing similar issue. It was a twrp bootloop.
my best bet is to grab a boot.img and flash it.
@Anghirrim sorry to interupt you, but do you have any method for fixing this?
Currently stuck at twrp. even I tried to boot into system/ download mode/ bootloader etc. It just bring me back to twrp. Couldn't use LGUP becoz I can't get into download mode. now I stuck with a phone with only twrp.
Tried flashing MM_flashable and return flashed successfully, but still boot into twrp.
Edit: Tried to plug my phone into a charger, brings me into twrp

Hi, did you try to factory reset it under stock flashable firmware ? Because if you did so, it will bootloop into TWRP trying to reach stock recovery.

@Anghirrim Nice ROM, everything I wanted is included in the rom.
but I have some problem with magisk manager, it wasn't working. (coz I want to get root)
1. How to get twrp
2. and therefore flash magisk manager
Edit: Nah, just have to redo it. Everything was good.
Maybe one day I should port AEX to another phone (cough cough Galaxy S2 cough cough).
