Recovery flash won't actually work - OnePlus 5 Questions & Answers

I'm on OxygenOS 5.1.7 (Android 8.1) with unlocked bootloader but stock recovery, coming from full OTA update on rooted OOS 5.1.5, crypted data.
If I try to flash recovery (tried many version, last one is TWRP 3.2.3 siankatabg) from fastboot the flash works with "OKAY" and "Finished" messages, but too quickly (0.013s for writing), and it doesn't actually install TWRP. After reboot I'm still on stock recovery.
I tried to flash full 5.1.7 zip again. It went well, but too quickly, and didn't solve the problem.
How can I fix without having to format data?

Have you flashed magisk after reboot to twrp recovery? Otherwise oxygenOS will overwrite twrp with stock recovery on its first reboot.

I'm not able to reboot to TWRP! Just after flashing it, if I "fastboot reboot recovery" it reboots to stock recovery

Maybe you've missed some steps earlier to the flashing of twrp. Check this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/how-to/oneplus-5-unlock-bootloader-flash-twrp-t3624877
If you have further issues, please post a console log of the commands you typed and the errors if there are any.

Solved! I was doing "reboot recovery" instead of "boot recovery.img". Noob mistake
Thanks!

you need to flash Magisk before rebooting from TWRP

I am following all the steps in guide but when i try to install TWRP by siankatabg it keeps me looping back to fastboot.
Not facing any issues if i install normal TWRP recovery.

TWRP Stuck after upgrade to Nougat

Hello everyone,
i just flashed the newest Pure Nexus Rom and everything went fine.
I forgot to flash the SuperSU Zip so i tried to got back into TWRP, but now it stuck.
The System boots normally, only TWRP wont boot.
Anyone had that problem too?
if anyone else has the same issue, here is the answer:
I forgot to erase the userdata or cache.
If you have the same problem use fastboot!
fastboot format cache
fastboot format userdata
Then it should work again.
(Everything on your own risk)
If you dont flah SuperSU asap, TWRP will not stick on reboot (w nougat). That was the issue.
No SuperSU was not the problem.
It happened before i flashed the SuperSU zip.
As far as i know, there is a problem if you upgrade to Nougat and dont format the userdata and cache because of the encryption or sth like that.

Exactly. It happened before you flashed SuperSU zip. Not flashing SuperSU caused your problem. It needs to be flashed the first time you go into TWRP or you won't be able to boot back into TWRP. The previous poster is correct.
Maybe we talk about different problems
Ive formatted cache and userdata yesterday,
now i can go back into twrp.
(SuperSU is not flashed now).
Just tried it, works perfectly!

I never, ever flash userdata, and never had an issue.
We can agree to disagree. Either the other poster and I arent understanding your question, or you arent understanding our reply. It's cool, it happens.
But TWRP not sticking is due to not running SuperSU at the end of the install process. It wont stick.
And now i know the misunderstanding!
My sentence was a little bit silly formulated:
It didnt stuck by flashing SuperSU. I just forgot to do that and when i recognized this, i want to boot into recovery. Then i recognized the bootloop.
So SuperSU as itself was not involved. By the way BeansTown wrote in the Thread for PureNexus Rom that you have to format your userdata (normally over TWRP).
Shame on me that i didnt read before start flashing

So I followed the guide and updated to 7.1.1 and did the normal "fastboot flash recovery xxx" then "fastboot reboot bootlader" then rebooted it via phone I go to "Recovery" from my phone and I get a screen saying "No Command" I tried to flash twrp-3.0.3-0-angler.img
Did I miss something?

After flashing TWRP from the bootloader, go directly into recovery and flash SuperSU 2.78 or newer to make it stick permanently.

Hmm. If you are on stock, reflash the boot, system, recovery, and vendor from the factory image that matches your stock, security update. Restart the phone and boot into Android. Restart into the bootloader then fastboot flash recovery TWRP-angler.img. See if it lets you boot into TWRP then. If not, try an older version of TWRP and see if that will flash and allow you to boot into it.

You have to flash TWRP, enter TWRP and then reboot directly to Recovery. That way, TWRP will modify the system so it will not replace TWRP with stock recovery.
Flash TWRP;
Boot directly into TWRP;
Flash Magisk with TWRP.
Magisk should prevent the stock recovery from replacing TWRP.

you need to flash supersu or magisk right after flashing OOS to prevent OOS from overwriting the recovery with stock one, as mentioned above..

Always boot in recovery mode after an update

Hi,
I was updating my OP6T to the new version (Magisk + Xxx NoLimits), but after the reboot post-update the device started to reboot to recovery after it booted. So I've tried to delete Magisk but the problem was still present, so I've decided to download the latest Oxygen ROM from the OnePlus and flash it from TWRP, but after flashing, the device started to always boot to recovery (before the OnePlus boot animation).
At least i tried to restore a nandroid backup of 1 month ago (System, Boot and Data), but still the device after the restore still boot to recovery before the boot animation.
I've only tried the system reboot (I've not tried to force boot another slot).
Do you have a solution to try before formatting the internal storage?
Thanks
Edit: After unistalling magisk and reflashing it again, now the device boots again, but immediately after (when the lock screen appear) the device reboot automatically to recovery again
Try this:
- in twrp , dirty flash the rom you are using (Oxygen os)
- factory reset
- flash twrp (the latest the better)
- flash Magisk 19.1
Reboot to system.
If this not working, Format data will work.

2. Flash the latest Full Oxygen OS Zip
3. Flash the TWRP installer Zip
4. Reboot to RECOVERY to make sure TWRP stays and continue to root.
5. Flash the Latest Magisk to maintain root
6. Reboot System and Enjoy the latest firmware without any data loss

I am guessing you skipped the first step...
Try this:
Flash the OTA zip
Reboot (you will be unrooted and with stock recovery)
Boot to TWRP through ADB
Flash magisk unistaller
Reboot
Boot to TWRP through ADB
Flash OTA zip
Flash TWRP
Reboot to TWRP
Flash magisk

Ok, I've done this and actually is even worse, the device started to boot in recovery again and TWRP doesn't recognize that the internal storage is crypted, so i can't even access the internal storage (it shows only strange folders), so, now I can't flash the nandroid backup anymore.
I also mean FULL rom .zip.
Format data in twrp or in Fastboot. Or use MSM tool .

So I've to Full wipe and then adb sideload the ROM? Because at the current state I can't even boot the device, it always starts in TWRP
Edit: I've also tried the blue_spark's version but nothing changed, TWRP can't recognize the encrypted storage
you can try this first.

When you're saying you're flashing the full ROM after wiping, are you meaning the xxx no limit? If so this isn't an os rom it's just a magisk module rom that's an add on to oxygen os. You need to wipe and flash the latest oxygen os rom, stable or beta which ever you're using, then flash TWRP, flash your os again on the other slot, flash TWRP, flash magisk, if your system boots fine then flash the xxx no limits rom in twrp.

TWRP install impossible, phone doesn't make it past fastboot splash screen

Hey guys,
I just oem unlocked my new 6T and have access to the bootloader. As I try to install TWRP with
HTML:
fastboot boot imagename.img
my computer says that it pushes the image just fine, but my phone restarts and then never makes it past the fastboot splash screen instead of loading up TWRP.
I was following the fajita (6T) instructions from the lineage OS website.
The first time I did it it worked, but following the instructions on installing lineage and telling me to wipe and format data, both the recovery seems to be gone and i cannot fastboot boot into TWRP.
Can you help?
Seems the same with what i experienced. Have you tried installing a fastboot rom? I had my oneplus 6t bootlooped into fastboot mode even if i try to turn it off, it just boots back automatically to fastboot mode. Last resort was to flash a fastboot rom. That worked for me.

I tried 3.3.1.1. and 3.2.3.0.
What you are describing, I'm going to assume you are trying to install Lineage 17. You can't install TWRP if you are going Android 10, at least that's the conclusion I've come to at this point in time. It will fail to boot or end up in crash dump mode every time you try and enter recovery if you are on a custom ROM. If you are on Android 9, it's not an issue. I believe it's OK stock as well, but I don't know haven't tried, haven't been stock in a long time.
For LOS 17, only boot the TWRP image, never boot to recovery, never run the TWRP installer. You will likely still have to format data.
I have a post here, from when I had a similar issue. (instructions)
You'll notice the OmniRom instructions don't mention installing TWRP, only booting it.
Once I was in your spot, I always went back to stock using the fastboot ROM, installed TWRP, updated (still using TWRP), then started over with my install.
Well no, i was actually trying to install Lineage 16, which is Android 9 I believe.
The problem for me is that I do not get to the point where TWRP opens after "fastboot boot"ing it. So I understand, I should use a fastboot stock ROM? Is there such a thing? Where would I find it? Or would it be an OnePlus Oxygen ROM that I can fastboot?
Quickest way to start over:
To get back straight your gonna need to access a Windows PC, and run the MSM tool. Make sure you install both OnePlus and Qualcomm drivers. ( Don't wait for Windows, just pre install the drivers) here are some links. Not my work. Please be sure to thank the developers for creating and hosting these tools ?

Were you on Android 10 before (OOS)? That will do that. LOS 16 is Android 9 and should have no problems installing TWRP or booting to it.. For LOS 16 I'd go back to 9.0.17, then install LOS 6T.
I posted these LOS install instructions a long time ago for another user.
Remember the MSM Tool will relock your bootloader so if something goes wrong the MSM Tool is your only choice. That is why it is always the last thing I resort to.
Thread to get Fastboot stock Roms if you want to try that route first.
Hey guys,
thank you so much for all your help. I've managed to use mauronofrios workaround here on xda to put my phone in a 9.0.17 state again (no idea what i had originally), and this way i could fastboot the twrp image again. so that worked fine, but so far flashing lineage hasnt worked, for whatever reason it seems to boot into a lineageos kind of recovery only (which i didnt even know existed).
So i guess in terms of this thread the problem is solved. Thank you again!

Did you see my Lineage install instructions above? LOS installs its on Recovery when you flash the ROM. When om Android 9, boot TWRP, flash the TWRP installer, reboot to Recovery, install LOS 16, flash the TWRP installer again (replaces the LOS recovery that was installed), reboot to Recovery, install gapps / magisk if desired, reboot.
Read my instructions post though, the first time install is different, as you need LOS on both slots. Updating is different as well, its much easier.
It should go smoothly.

Do I need to be on Android 9 Stock when I start that process? What I did was boot into TWRP, flash TWRP installer, reboot into recovery, then format and wipe ALL partitions (except USB), then reboot into recovery again and then flash LOS, flash TWRP, reboot into recovery, flash LOS, flash TWRP, reboot system. Still no luck...

Wiping, Dalvik / ART, System, and Vendor is generally a bad idea. You can do them in certain situations, this isn't one of those situations you should be wiping those though. Factory reset, means the slider on the main page of the wipe screen that says swipe to factory reset, format data is the button that says format data. Don't do anything extra. If you did, yeah I would go back to 9.0.17 using the fastboot rom again, that will put everything back on both slots.
like OhioYJ stated, don't use advanced wipe. re-run the msm tool. Then follow his instuctions. You shouldn't need to preform any manual data wiping. The process of flashing will do everything required. looks like you're almost there
Thanks guys. I will try it out and let you know.
Edit: So I finally managed to properly install LOS - OhioYJ, your instructions worked! I installed 9.0.17 and went from there without wiping any additional partitions.
One questions remains: in your instructions you mention that after installing LOS once, you can update LOS as normal and you mention doing it via the recovery with flashing TWRP or GAPPS later again. Is it possible to do the update via the normal update function of LOS as well? Or will that overwrite TWRP?
You guys are awesome. Thank you so much for your help!
I seem to be stuck on the fastboot screen as well. Being on a MAC, anytime i try to do something in fastboot it goes straight back to the fastboot screen. I Thought I was on Android 10.0 trying to install recovery for that lead to bootloop of fastboot, tried using the Pie recovery and same thing. I am open to suggestions.
Thanks.

Yeah it starting to seem like it maybe isolated to Lineage. You cant install TWRP with LOS 17. Someone else mentioned in the Omni thread that it worked. This thread is about Lineage, but that should be clarified, or clearer.

After update to V11.0.4.0.QFJEUXM TWRP no longer available

Hi Guys,
yesterday the new update came out, great.
I of course immediately pulled the zip (source) and installed it with TWRP (source).
So far no problems.
After a while I realized that I no longer had root because the apps stopped working.
When I wanted to boot into the TWRP to reinstall Magisk, I unfortunately found that it was no longer available, but only stock recovery.
Well, I thought to myself and tried to reinstall TWRP (method-twrp-3.3.1-2-davinci-fix), which was fatal, because my cell phone only booted into the Fastboot.
Then I got my cell phone, set up again with the Fastboot method.
Now I'm back to 11.0.4.0 but unfortunately without TWRP and root.
Can someone please describe how I can get TWRP and root again on Android 10?
I am thankful for every help !!!
Same thing happening to me, no matter what I do, stock recovery keeps overwriting TWRP
Oh dear, that doesn't sound good.
I hope there will be a solution to the problem soon.
I don't want to do without TWRP and root.
I wanted to try it according to these instructions "https://miui.blog/redmi-k20/twrp-mi-9t-redmi-k20-vbmeta-mauronofrio/". But don't trust me, I'm afraid that it won't work and I can start all over again.
Flash official TWRP this morning with fastboot commands without problem.
1. reboot in fastboot mode
2. Flash recovery with this command "fastboot flash recovery yourrecovery.img"
3. Reboot in recovery with this command "fastboot boot yourrecovery.img"
Any problems here.
The fact that twrp is lost when flashing official rom (even thought twrp itself) is normal. You just have to reboot into bootloader and flash twrp again and it will be back.
Your problem here is that you are using an old and unofficial twrp build, that has problems on newer roms. Flash official twrp and you'll be fine

Oh sorry it works? I read somewhere that the original causes also bootloops :good:
Found something on a Russian website.
Обновление TWRP Recovery от LR.Team для устройств на Android 10
Does anyone dare to test this?
Here is the link to the TWRP for our Mi9t
> TWRP-3.3.1-1109-DX (полный комплект для установки) <
Check it out...
I finally got it
I did the following.
"V11.0.4.0.QFJEUXM" flashed in the TWRP and booted into the system, TWRP will be overwritten.
Now flashed TWRP "twrp-3.3.1-0-davinci.img" in Fastboot and booted into Recovery (TWRP).
To be on the safe side, I had the cell phone booted again into the TWRP in the TWRP.
Then I flashed Magisk "Magisk-v20.3.zip".
Booted cell phone into the system and everything works.

Where did you get the twrp file from?
You can use OrangeFox Recovery if you want a TWRP that can survive after flashing MIUI ROMs or updates :

Ok, I am on global 11.0.4.0 (QFJMIXM) and I used this latest twrp-3.3.1-0-davinci.img and I can confirm its working without bootloop.

To install TWRP, is it neccesary to wipe Data (or something else)?
And if Data must be wiped, does it mean that Data will no more be encrypted as originally by MIUI?
I have 11.0.4.0, rooted by Magisk (Magisk installed simply by patching and flashing boot.img, did not need TWRP for, did not wipe Data, etc) and I possibly want to have TWRP but don't want to loose encryption of Data, Widewine L1 and so

You don't need to wipe anything to install a custom Recovery (like TWRP).
TWRP can handle ROM encryption, you just need to install a correct TWRP, and version, for your current MIUI / Android version.
A custom Recovery doesn't change Widevine level.
And TWRP is useful in case of bootloop (because of an installed Magisk module, by example) or if you want to easily reinstall Magisk after ROM update.

Ok thanks, so starting from v11.0.4.0 QFJEUXM, rooted by Magisk (did not wipe Data or so, just patched and flashed boot img), is it ok just to flash (from Fastboot) twrp-3.3.1-0-davinci.img, downloaded from the official site https://twrp.me/davinci/twrp-3.3.1-0-davinci.img
Maybe I could test first by
fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-0-davinci.img

Yes, it should work.
But I prefer OrangeFox Recovery.

Something is fishy. IMO, if that official TWRP is really ok for 11.0.4.0, then it should correctly boot by:
fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-0-davinci.img
But phone rebooted into the dark.
TG, I didn't really flash with, so by long pressing Pow it rebooted to system.
Tried again, no avail
Edit:
Tried the same fastboot boot with
twrp-3.3.1-12-davinci-mauronofrio.img and also OrangeFox-R10.1_1-Stable-davinci.img (obtained by unzipping OrangeFox), but it also reboots to dark and I have to long press Pow to reboot to system

Hi Guys,
yesterday the new update came out, great.
I of course immediately pulled the zip (source) and installed it with TWRP (source).
So far no problems.
After a while I realized that I no longer had root because the apps stopped working.
When I wanted to boot into the TWRP to reinstall Magisk, I unfortunately found that it was no longer available, but only stock recovery.
Well, I thought to myself and tried to reinstall TWRP (method-twrp-3.3.1-2-davinci-fix), which was fatal, because my cell phone only booted into the Fastboot.
Then I got my cell phone, set up again with the Fastboot method.
Now I'm back to 11.0.4.0 but unfortunately without TWRP and root.
Can someone please describe how I can get TWRP and root again on Android 10?
I am thankful for every help !!!

You can install twrp by All In One tool
You can find its thread here itself
I took the official TWRP. " Link "
Flashed in fastboat and then booted the phone with a key combination in TWRP.
With the Fastboot command it didn't work for me either, the cell phone remained black ...
