Recently lost the ability to dash charge and use my USB-C jump drive on my OP6T. I've flashed a couple of different ROMS, I updated to OnePlus6TOxygen_34.J.55_OTA_055_all_2107132253_b2cbbb97b4eee.zip, re-flashed another rom, I even swapped out the port with a new replacement I ordered. I'm out of ideas, the port is new so it doesnt need cleaning, USB debugging has been toggled and USB config set to file transfer. Computer doesnt recognize it using the original cable either. I'm leaning towards a software issue but i'm afraid to do too much flashing as I dont have my USB-C to fall back on as backup and would essentially brick the thing if I cant read from the jump drive. Any idead?
Are you able to run fastboot commands from the bootloader or adb commands in recovery?
Or even mount storage in recovery?

I'm able to get to get to fastboot, and now I just screwed myself out of TWRP and root by flashing a rom without TWRP. The PC will charge the phone, but wont see it. ADB sees no devices and Shapeshift's recovery doesnt have many options. Basically now i need to flash a recovery image by device only. and that still doesn't solve the connection and slow charge issue
Are you rooted with Magisk?
You should be able to install the twrp.zip from Magisk if so. If not the TWRP app in may work to get it back.
It sounds like you may need to try the MSM tool soon.
root checker says i'm not properly rooted anymore, i've only got the magisk.apk courtesy of google's restore. Looks like the official twrp app will download but not let you flash the img unless rooted. I'm hoping this is a software bug with the oxygen image since i replaced the cable and port and no fix, otherwise i'm gonna have to buy a new device.
and I dont think MSMtool will do anything if the phones not recognized. the all-in-one tool was useless since it didnt see the phone in fastboot
I am able to wirelessly ADB. but as far as i know, there's no way to flash recovery. As soon as i boot to fastboot I obviously lose wifi. any other ideas? i'm not familiar with wireless adb

I flashed the wrong kernal and I'm stuck on a bootloop. I can't access my internal storage via TWRP or cant use ADB either. ADB isn't recognizing the device. Is there anyway I can come out of this without losing my data on the phone? I can see the g2 listed as Other Devices in my PC's Device Manager while plugged in. I suppose that has something to do with it. Is there some driver I need to use ADB in recovery?

device manager, right click phone, update drivers, browse computer, let me pick from a list, unclick show compatible hardware, and find LGE or LG and pick the adb driver
Yes, I solved it. Got the drivers fixed.
Fun fact : If your G2 is just getting stuck at boot, turn it off for an over and try again. I stupidly flashed a zip containing a recovery using Flashify and not the boot.img and I got stuck in Fastboot mode or it'd just stuck at the boot animation. I had given up and decided to go back to stock, wiping all my photos. But thankfully the stock flash got stuck because I am using a custom kernal. I turned it off, watched some tv and tried again. Booted right back into the rom. Flashed a proper recovery using adb, got into TWRP, reflashed my rom and didn't lose any data. @autoprime got me through the process via IRC so big kudos to him!
Hi Everyone,
I've had some serious issues with the G2 since the night I got it. Basically I soft bricked it when I tried to load Cyanogen because it was a version for the 802 and I have the VS980. Now I've finally managed to get back into TWRP recovery, but I do not have a backup of the stock OS. I also am unable to mount the device to my computer to install a clean rom. (I've tried 3 computers, LG drivers, drivers from PDAnet, nothing works). ADB sideload also won't start inside TWRP and I can't get any adb commands to work. When I type adb devices it either shows nothing, or it lists the device as "host" and doesn't allow me to do anything.
Does anyone know any workarounds for these issues? I'm starting to run out of options. When I boot my phone I just get a loop to the screen that says "Secure boot failed." TWRP is the only thing I can get into, but if I can't push any files to the phone, it may as well be bricked. I also can't use the LG manufacture tool to take it back to stock because it doesn't recognize my device as the 980. The LG Mobile support tool also does not work - it just hangs when it attempts to download the firmware.
Would greatly appreciate any input!!
Flash CWM via TWRP. Has loki w/ OTG support. Plug OTG drive with backup on it. Flash. Worth a try.

There would be no way to flash CWM since it wasn't already on the device. Luckily I was able to fix this simply by wiping the whole phone, which wiped out the bad CyanogenMod info and let me factory reset with the LG flash tool.
Derp.... My fault lol. I keep backups of stock recovery and others. Shouldn't assume others do. Nice, odd you couldn't do it to begin with. I keep a virtual Windows XP for dealing with major phone bs like adb, qpst, lgnpst, ect. Just handles these things with more stability. LG Updater and LGNPST seems real finicky with the G2.
Don't ask me how this came about but I currently do not have a recovery on my phone.
The phone was running a rooted version of android 4.4.4 (paranoid android I think I had) and when android 5.0 came out I decided to flash it to my phone manually, to do this I used the tools available in android root tool kit. I think I messed it up a bit however as I have no recovery image on the phone.
I am now bored of running stock and want to flash a cyanogenmod ROM onto the phone - hence why I now need a recovery.
I can get my pc to recognise that a fastboot device is connected, but when I try the fastboot flash recovery <recovery.img> command it returns "could not load file". Even though the file is there in the path specified - I'd downloaded CWM recovery.
So I am not sure what I should do, can anyone help me?
I do not have my OEM cable and cannot get the PC to recognise an ADB device is connected, so a solution that gets round this problem would be useful. I'd rather not have to spend money on a new USB cable just for this purpose.
Thanks.

I would highly recommend Wug's Nexus Root Toolkit. It can automate any process you need. From what it sounds like it your post, you need to re-install TWRP. With the Nexus Root Toolkit, you can find that option under the "Root" section. Just check the box "Custom Recovery" and press the big "Root" button. Everything is very easy with this program. One thing I would recommend is that you get a very good USB to Micro USB to do this with. That is always the first point of failure in my experience. Good luck!
Hello. Well as the title says im having these issues. The main one is that im not able to flash anything on it using adb. I get a failed message. Everything was working fine until i flashed oreo on it 8.1. I was able to flash oreo with no issues but then once in oreo i couldnt flash twrp or another firmware at all and every time i connect it to a pc it stays on charging only and have to manually put it on media transfer. Could this be a software or hardware issue?
If i want to downgrade I just have to flash everything using adb right?
Has anyone had this issue?
The only time I have issues like yours is when my platform-tools folder gets wonky....so I just download the latest from Google and replace them all with the new ones. Maybe you have done this already but it doesn't hurt to try. Hope it helps
did you enabled developer settings and enabled usb debugging? and is your bootloader unlocked? I have no problems here on 8.1

I would do that and also make sure platrorm tools and drivers are up to date. Also check your usb ports on PC. Sometimes I have problems with one port but another works fine. Currently I have none of my ports work except one and only with a usb splitter weird right? Anyway check all those things and give it another try.

well it was actually my usb ports.. two of them just didnt work with fastboot but they worked fine with everything else like usb hubs, flash drives, etc... Althoguh I still got the problem when plugging it I have to change the setting on the phone for file transfer. Does it happen all the time in oreo? I havent gone back to nougat and try it out but when I was in nougat it was working just fine.
Another Issue I have is that I keep flashing twrp on it but everytime I restart the phone twrp gets delete and Im left with the regular recovery. Im trying with oreo 8.1
From the twrp website
"Download the correct image file and copy the file into the same folder as your adb and fastboot binaries. Rename the image to twrp.img and type:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot reboot
Note many devices will replace your custom recovery automatically during first boot. To prevent this, use Google to find the proper key combo to enter recovery. After typing fastboot reboot, hold the key combo and boot to TWRP. Once TWRP is booted, TWRP will patch the stock ROM to prevent the stock ROM from replacing TWRP. If you don't follow this step, you will have to repeat the install."
hth
Im having some weird issues. First I cant keep twrp on oreo, no matter what version of twrp I use it always gets deleted. Second, when going back to nougat twrp stays installed but I cant boot into the system what combo would you suggest?
Nevermind I think it was my USB cable. Changed cable and everything works fine.
Until today I had an older version of TWRP installed no problem but I have reset my phone so I could update TWRP and install a fresh ROM but for the life of me I can not get fastboot to detect my phone or install a new TWRP
ADB commands work fine but when I boot or command into fastboot it just doesn't detect my phone any more. I've tried a few different drivers for my phone and USB etc but still nothing.
Have any of you had this problem? I'm hoping I may be overlooking something.
