OP2 stuck in boot animation after trying to root.

I flashed TWRP and SuperSU onto my op2 and now it doesnt want to go further than boot animation (can boot into TWRP and fastboot). any help?
trying to adb sideload the stock rom, serving stuck at 45% what gives?
EDIT: rom was corrupted downloaded another one and it works
anyone know if super su flashing is broken on the latest op2 firmware or is it just me?
What version of SuperSU you flashed ? If you flashed v2.46 then try flashing latest stable built (v2.65) ---> http://download.chainfire.eu/supersu-stable

Which one and where did you get it? What result were you getting? Which recovery were you in when you flashed? I am currently having an issue gaining root on latest firmware on an encrypted phone.

This one i found it in the oneplus official forums. When i tried to flash normal SU i were stuck on boot animation but with this one it worked wonderfully. i believe the recovery i were using is the latest Modified TWRP (for op2)

Couldn't update Installation problem with august update

So this week i hadn't time enough to install the august update since my phone is rooted so i decided to do it now. What i did before trying to download the update :
1.Deleted all magisk modules that i had then rebooted
2.Unistalled magisk using restore image then rebooted
3.Went to sys update downloaded and it says installation failed
What do to? I'm not rooted now and i don't have twrp installed.
PS. don't want to install it via fastboot/miflash
Follow this guide in future. https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/blob/master/docs/tips.md#ota-installation-tips
To fix your problem now, find a stock boot image for your update version you are currently on and flash it.

If you don't want to use Miflash (Why ?) you can boot temporary TWRP and flash .zip here:

I'm facing same issue and I was following the guide.
Same here, can't install set Ota, even after remove magisk.
Other thing, cell won't show screen to put pin to boot, previous pin of sim so I think encryption is disable!? Any idea?

Storage mounting issues after flashing TWRP

Just unlocked and flashed TWRP. No matter what I try, I can't get it to recognise my storage to install SuperSU.
What can I do to fix this?
I am on stock OOS 5.1.5
Thanks
EDIT - Worked it out. I formatted the data and it then let me install SuperSU.
EDIT 2 - After installing SuperSU zip file, the phone wasn't rooted when rebooting and also, TWRP won't recognise my data once I rebooted into it again.
Any ideas?

After twrp installation and before the first system reboot you need to flash magisk so twrp will be stick in place.
I really don't know if it works with supersu. Do you want to stay encrypted(internal storage)? Which twrp(file name) did you flash?
Preferably encrypted. I flashed twrp 3.1.1 cheeseburger.
I am trying to install Franco Kernel. So I unlocked the bootloader, flashed TWRP 3.1.1 and then tried to flash Super SU or Magisk and neither worked. It came up with an issue with file mounting.

It seems to me you did not use latest blu spark or codeworkx recovery instead you used official twrp.
It's recommended to not use official twrp. Please change the twrp and test again.

You are correct. I did not use the blu spark TWRP.
Can I use TWRP 3.1.1 BLU spark version, or shall I use 3.2.1 blu spark?

All done! I now have another issue. I originally tried to flash Super SU and it did not work. I have tried to flash Magisk today after flashing franco kernel and get an error says that there is an unsupported boot image program or something.
I am on stock OOS, with franco kernel and no root. How can I get it so that I am on stock OOS with franco kernel and Magisk?
Thanks.

So what do I need to do to uninstall SuperSU?
The main issue is, after installing supersu, my phone still wasn't rooted!

Thanks. Will I need to flash a stock boot.img too? If so, where would I find this given I am on stock OOS.

Normally not, but if needed: every rom zip comes along with a boot.img inside the zip. Just extract it from this rom zip and you have the kernel of this rom :good:

Interestingly, I just flashed the unSU zip, wiped cache and then tried Magisk. It says I need to flash a stock boot.img
What is the process of doing this?

Do I need to wipe or anything? Or do I just flash the boot.img, wipe cache and then flash Magisk? Or shall I boot fully into the OS, then back into TWRP to flash it?
Still not sure where I get the correct boot.img from!
Edit - can I dirty flash the whole firmware? I would like to do this so I can do a clean backup with the stock kernel before I then flash Magisk and Franco. Would this work?

You can also flash the complete rom with kernel.
But just look inside the downloaded rom zip file, there's the boot.img you're looking for. You don't need to wipe anything or boot into OS for flashing just the kernel!

Thanks for that, all up and running now.
Do you know where I can find the Franco governor profiles? I've had a good look around but can't find them again!

Try to install orangefox following this guide https://forum.xda-developers.com/re.../official-orangefox-recovery-project-t3941822 it's strange that orangefix doesn't boot up. The errorvseems to be related to twrp not updated
I read it and that gave me an idea. I extracted the recovery.img in the orangefox zip and flashed it with fastboot. After that I flashed the orangefox zip and the phone booted in orangefox. And finally I could install a custom ROM. I'm very happy. Thank you for your help.

TWRP Error installing zip file

Hello,
I got the error " error installing zip file " while a try to flash oos 11.1.2.2.
I try sideload instead by it Failed instantly. I tried to format data and wipe without any change. I also tried to boot other version of TWRP (I currently use a custom version of TWRP 3.6.0), but I always got a Crash Dump error.
I was able to install rom with this version of TWRP before and I have wanted to install PixelExperience but I have forgotten to flash oos 11.1.2.2 before and i think is that witch broken TWRP.
I also tried to reinstall TWRP.
Any ideas on this?

I had that error before from a bad copy of oos. I would download it again and copy to USB again if that's what you're using. Also use this twrp to fastboot boot it works I actually just had to do it a min ago.

Also, shoud I use "flash current TWRP" before flashing the ROM?
