Hello there, im quite good with the old ADB and FASTBOOT commands but I am stumped, and its probably a silly little thing I have probably forgotten.....
I lost my recovery, after flashing completely going back to stock, got all drivers installed, but couldnt get recovery installed any way.....
so i visited this post : http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/general/firstaid-zip-revert-h2os-mm-beta-to-lp-t3306967 and it worked, and i have twrp 2.7.0 on the phone, but I can remember having 3.0.2.2 on it, so i download the .img file from the site, and flashed that via the images section on twrp recovery, i reboot, and ..... no recovery....... so I have to flash the first aid zip to get 2.8.7.0 twrp installed again....how do I upgrade it.....I have working drivers, access to fastboot, but I am being a bit dumb!!!!!! HELP!

I would suggest that you flash 3.0.2.2 recovery image via fastboot. Remember to reboot to recovery after you flash it for the recovery to stick.

I was on the last beta n4f26t, and flash TWRP successfully, then went to flash superSU from twrp, this when wrong and everything goes downhill from here. I tried flashing back the last update, in it's entirety following the Heisenberg guide for returning to stock didn't work, tried flashing twrp again still can't get into recovery (just boot loops) I tried a previous update NMF26F and got to the dead android recovery screen but when I tried to flash back the OTA nothing happened and went back to bootloop on reboot. I've used the nexus root kit and still nothing. What can I do to fix this? I've honestly looked up every resource I could think of before posting this here. really hoping I didn't perma brick my 6P

Edit I was on NPG47I the lastest beta update not n4f26t
Hello... So now you only have access to the bootloader Or bootloader and stock recovery?
If your bootloader is unlocked, you can try:
fastboot erase cache
fastboot format userdata
Of course it will wipe your internal storage...

I would concentrate on trying to get a working recovery first. Almost everyone who lost recovery mode never got their phone back- classic BLOD. First try fastboot FORMATTING recovery and then both fastboot flash twrp, and then fastboot boot twrp. If you can get a working recovery there may be hope. If you can never boot to recovery mode, I think you are done. From your bootloader screen, what is your bl version?

BL: angler-03.6.7
Baseband: angler-3.81
I see all normal BL options and I flashed it with the nexus root kit and used https://developer.android.com/preview/download-712.html this image
I know with older versions of TWRP there was a problem with the EFS partition that contains the IMEI info. What version of twrp are you using??? I thought I bricked my Nexus 6p after restoring a backup but it was actually just me screwing up my EFS partition. The newer versions of twrp (i think 3.0.3 and up) fixed this problem. Still though, if it is that, and you flash a new twrp version it won't fix your problem. If you have the time search through the forum for the EFS partition fix. I don't know the commands off the top of my head but I know this helped a lot of people. Worth a shot.

OK, but when you try to boot to recovery, it bootloops? Never goes to recovery? Try the steps above to successfully flash the recovery partition using fastboot. I suppose you can use NRT, but download the latest version of TWRP and try both flashing and booting the twrp.img.
same boat
anxious to hear results: I can't get to recovery and am bootlooping - tried a bunch of things using Nexus Root Toolkit . Curiously enough earlier when I was trying to flash an older version or ressurection remix, even my TWRP would bootloop so I couldn't flash anything without it quitting - anyone ever hear of that happening?

Hey... Did you try to boot TWRP?
From bootloader: fastboot boot twrp.img
If this fails and you only have access to the bootloader, i think you are SOL.

Are you able to get into recovery and adb sideload a stock OTA from the google developer website? That's always saved me when I've had problems.

We don't need more posts about bootloop. There is a main topic that has been discussed for multiple pages:

I personally had the issue and had to RMA the phone. I suggest you do the same.

Yeah honestly I couldn't be bothered to be perfectly truthful
so i'm going thru the same thing as OP.
I need help.
Hi there XDA, I've recently been having issues with custom roms and random reboots, so I decided to go back to stock. Going back to stock I used fastboot to flash the system and boot images. After some setup I wanted to get root. Instead of there being twrp I ended up with the stock recovery somehow. TWRP 3.1.1 seemed to stick, then I decided to upgrade to the most recent version. And it no longer sticks(TWRP recovery).
I just don't know what to do or what the cause for this to happen may be. My only thought is that I'll have to fastboot flash recovery every time I want to modify something.
Any way you guys would be willing to shed some light on what's going on for me???

probably since you are not rooted
@dirtyreturn What was said above go grab the latest magisk.zip and have ready in your storage. Then after flashing twrp head into and flash the zip. Should stick from then on I haven't had any issues.

When you flash system and boot images, root is removed. On Oreo, TWRP does not persist without root being maintained. I believe on Nougat or Marshmallow, this was not the case. When you booted into the stock rom, this restored the stock recovery.
Flash TWRP then boot directly into TWRP and flash Magisk. When installing new security patches, boot directly into TWRP and reinstall root.

Hi everyone,
I'm rooted. I flashed the Beta 3 rom and TWRP. Then, I rebooted into TWRP and flashed Magisk v18. Now, my phone spins on the boot animation screen for about a minute, then reboots into TWRP. Any ideas what I should do? I've tried wiping cache, but still the same issues.

Sent from my ONEPLUS A6013 using Tapatalk
Use this if you're on OOS 9.0.5/9.0.6/9.0.7, but if you are on a higher OOS then you need to grab your stock boot.img for 9.0.10 from here and 9.0.11 from here, and patch it yourself using the instructions below.
Connect your phone to your PC using the OnePlus Cable
Reboot to Bootloader using "adb reboot bootloader" on PC while your phone is in TWRP
Rename stock boot .img file to boot.img on PC
Use "fastboot boot boot.img" on PC while your phone is in Fastboot Mode / Bootloader
Follow this guide once you are done with the above steps to root your phone with Magisk and actually boot.
I am in the same situation.
1) Got the phone. Unlocked with out-of-the-box firmware. Put TWRP on it, Magisk. All worked like a dream.
2) Time passed, I tried to play Fortnite a bit, which kicked me out due to root. Had to use Magisk Canary. Still, NO issues, all superb!
3) New firmware. The December one. Kept postponing it, but after like 2 weeks, I was like, meh, why not. Big mistake.
From this point on, I cannot root no matter what I try. As soon as I flash Magisk, it will keep booting back to TWRP.
I have even tried to grab the Canary ZIP to flash. Nothing. Tried flashing back the full base update file from OnePlus, then root. Nothing.
It's like an endless loop.
To be fair, I only use root / magisk because I need call recording. Sadly, it's been killed in Android 9, but OnePlus has a hidden feature for this. Unfortunately you have to use either ADB on each boot, or use Magisk to enable it and save you time, hassle.
Anyone has any idea, shoot.
This is a 100% unbranded, OnePlus-store-bought 8GB/128GB 6T model.
Ps.: IF you ever get stuck in this loop - you can boot your phone by using the original "boot.img".
You can grab it here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...overy-unofficial-twrp-touch-recovery-t3861482
To boot it, simply:
1) Enter Bootloader where you can use fastboot (NOT TWRP!).
2) Use `fastboot boot boot.img`
3) Your phone now will boot up.

Hi there,
Just like you I have installed twrp-3.2.3-x_blu_spark_v9.86_op6 TWRP recovery on my phone to flash custom ROM (as recommneded by this ROMs list), however, it doesn't work. Like, no matter whether you I to flash unofficial or official custom ROM, it says that 'Something isn't right'. I think there's some problem within this recovery. Hoping for good.

Flash the CORRECT one, for the OnePlus 6T. Not for the OnePlus 6.
Dear all,
first of all I would like to be sorry if I'm saying something worng. I'm not so expert about Android world.
I've got a OnePlus 6T that I've rooted with the help of a friend some months ago.
Not it's a lot that I keep see the notification abount the OS update and I keep skipping it but it's bothering me so... I searched for a guide and I found this (https://oneplus.gadgethacks.com/how...thout-losing-root-no-computer-needed-0192638/) (I hope I can post it also if it's from another website).
It seems so simple, I've downloaded the OTA update, the TWRP and the Magisk. My issue is that whene I reboot to the recovery I'm not booting into TWRP but I suppose into the OnePlus recovery instead.
I searched angain and found this other guide (https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6t/how-to/official-oxygenos-9-0-4-ota-oneplus-6t-t3860953) that is more complete but I can't understand if it's the proper guide I need to follow to update my device keeping it rooted and most of all without loosing any data.
Thanks,
Riki
The first guide you linked to is wrong. Do not follow that. That is why you don't have TWRP anymore. The second guide you linked to on XDA is correct. Follow the TWRP guide. Once you have TWRP reinstalled.
You must download the zip from the second link you posted here at XDA.
Flash the Zip in TWRP. This flash the update to the opposite slot. It also wipes out TWRP and replaces it with the stock recovery.
Now you must reinstall TWRP. Flash the TWRP installer. This will flash TWRP to both slots.
Now reboot to recovery. This will reboot to the new slot where you update was just flashed.
This is when you install Magisk to the updated slot. You MUST do this.
Now reboot to system after you installed Magisk.
Now you have updated without losing any data.
The guide in the second link says to use the Magisk uninstaller. I've personally never done this. This is probably for people who use all sorts of weird add-ons and such. I don't know. Never uninstalled Magisk, never had a problem. That's all I can say. You can try it, or you can follow the official instructions.

It's booting into recovery, but the OnePlus recovery. That is what the menu that is asking you to select a language is. When you enter the command fastboot boot trwp.img you don't get any sort of error? Or the phone doesn't respond?

Sounds like you're not running the command from the folder where fastboot.exe is located.
Makes me wonder why you did it this way in the first place. And why people suggested it. Easiest way to install updates on a rooted 6T is to install the update through the normal updater without rebooting, going to Magisk Manager and selecting install to inactive slot and rebooting only after that. That's really all there is to it.

I didn’t know any other way. That’s why I asked how to do it. Anyway I’m running the command from the right folder. Maybe something broke on my laptop.
Yesterday evening I tried from a new laptop windows 10, installed adb and OnePlus driver for the first time and I was able to run the commands without the error not finding the command but:
Fastboot boot twrp.image returned me an error
If I run fastboot flash boot twrp.image it does not give me error but the phone does not response. It only boot to the boot loader.

I didn’t know any other way. That’s why I asked how to do it. Anyway I’m running the command from the right folder. Maybe something broke on my laptop.
Yesterday evening I tried from a new laptop windows 10, installed adb and OnePlus driver for the first time and I was able to run the commands without the error not finding the command but:
Fastboot boot twrp.image returned me an error

Try uninstalling adb. Delete the whole folder and install it again. Try updating your netframework on your PC and the latest C++

I'm creating a new tread about the issue and the state where I am because now I can't update or keep data, I just need to recover the phone to a normal state.

Flashing the fastboot rom would probably have gotten you back in and maybe with your data in tact. Now fair warning I'm a Linux user anyways, but really fastboot and adb are so much easier in Linux. For people that have issues, it sometimes is easier just to make a bootable USB / CD of Linux Mint or Ubuntu and then from Synaptic or the Package manager install adb and fastboot. No drivers or anything else to install, everything will just work.
Last time I got stuck in fastboot I just used the fastboot ROM to get back to bootable.

Those fastboot roms have sure saved me from raging before
I would also recommend using migrate, it's in the play store and it backs up all your data and then puts it in a flashable zip

Do a factory reset from TWRP and flash the full ROM.
One best method...and the method that works 100% tested for upgrading a rooted OOS to new OOS version without any loss of data, without any issues.
I'll mention the guide that I have used to upgrade from 9.0.12 rooted to 9.0.13 rooted. Without any loss of data
Download latest OOS full ROM
Boot to TWRP
Flash OOS 9.0.13
Flash TWRP installer zip
Reboot system
Phone will boot.
Now go back to recovery mode
Flash Magisk if u want root again
Done
No confusion. No data loss. Not being stuck. Sweet and Simple.

So I don't have to wipe my system data or anything. I heard some people had the problem of getting stuck or that there was a red warning screen that popped up when booting, and I'm not talking about the bootloader message. I'm currently on 9.0.11. Also should I download the latest version of TWRP or should I use the one I'm using currently. Don't wanna mess anything up. Another guide I read said I should flash the oos rom, then TWRP, than magisk
