Hi guys!
I had rooted u9200 on ICS firmware version B100, but I didn't manage to unlock bootloader to install CWM. So I decided to flash update 4.1.1 B508 offical beta firmware. I had to change build.prop to match the B508 version and I succesfully flashed 4.1.1 update. The problem now is that I can't root it. No way, I tried everything, not a chance. Also I can't downgrade because I have to change build.prop again to match the version I'm trying to downgrade to, but since I don't have root access I can't change build.prop. So now I'm stuck on unrooted beta version of 4.1.1.
Plese if anyone has any ideas and suggestions do not hesitate to write.
Out with the old, in with the new
So, I finally menaged to root 4.1.1 and to flash cwm. So now I flashed CM10 4.2.1 and it's working fine, but... When I go to settings/storage I can see my internal memory as "Internal storage" 2.14GB and I can see my sd card as "sd card" 29.78GB, but from any file menager I tried to use the situation is different, I see my internal storage as "sd card" and my real sd card is nowhere to be found, I can't access it from anywhere. The card is working fine, I tried it on my pc, and I used it to install this CM10 I'm on now.
Anyone with similar issues?
Please help me.

Hi,
I have the exact same problem and have been scouring the internet for answer.
I bought my P1 in Hongkong, so had a Hongkong stock B104 firmware, i used unlockroots software to unlock it successfully, but like you did not put any recovery on it, so have no way to flash a new rom or any recovery. i also like you edited the build.prop file using root explorer and flashed B508 (Jellybean).
1) Can you please tell me in a step by step guide how u managed to get CM10 & recovery on your phone & where u got the software etc.
2) I have backed-up my phone using Hisuite and Hicloud using cload software to the Internet & SD cards, will this be ok or will your procedure erase my SD card and will i be able to restore.
3) How would you rate CM10 compared to B508 firmware, is everything working as it should.
Your help would be much appreciated, and i would be extremely grateful.
Regards
Nil

Hi!
I used this guide to root, unlock bootloader and install cwm (I know the b508 is 4.1.1 but it worked for me): http://betanews.com/2012/11/13/how-to-root-android-4-2/
Download recovery image from here: http://www.mediafire.com/?pdaj3bohegu0vox
ROM is here (if you haven't found it already): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1930207
I don't know if you will be able to restore, but I don't see why not. I used titanium backup, you must be careful not to restore any system apps or settings. Also make a full backup from recovery before restoring because it's possible that it gets stuck on boot. Also it will not erase your SD card but it might be wise to use a clear one just in case.
I've been using this ROM for some time now and it works great. The only thing that bothers me is that video recording doesn't work, but I guess this will be solved in new versions.

Thanks for that, the tutorial mentions putting the phone in to fastboot, i have tried holding vol up & down buttons with power, phone just reboots.
I saw others saying to first take the battery out, how the heck do you take the battery out of the Ascend P1 (U9200)?
Could you please tell me how you proceeded at this step, also do you have google play working on it?
Would i not be able to flash a recovery image on the phone using AndroidControl app, it has a tab for flashing recovery but did not want to try it without asking if you tried this method?
Thanks in advance.

Turn off the phone, hold the volume down button and then plug in the usb cable. This should turn the phone on and put it into fastboot.
After that just follow the instructions provided in the link above. I got a few error messages in the process but I proceeded with all commands and it worked.

Have you tried AndroidControl as it seems to have all the files thats mentioned in the tutorial and makes flashing recovery supposedly easy, i wonder if it will work on an unrooted phone.

I have and it didn't work for me. You can try it for yourself if you want to. But this tutorial is easy enough for everyone I think, you just type in the commands it says and that's it.

UPDATE: I was able to flash the recovery using AndroidControl, i installed the driver first in fastboot mode and then restarted the phone, while still connected to the pc i ran AndroidControl then chose the flashing tab and flashed the recovery using cwm touch recovery, and then flashed with supersu file you gave me, to give me root acess, all went fine and my phone is now rooted with cwm touch recovery.
I still have not upgraded to CM10 as i wanted to see how B508 will be with Google play now working. As i did not have a recovery mode which could flash zip from sdcard, i was unable to flash gapps zip, i have now flashed gapps and all is working fine.
What was the reason you changed to CM10 rom, was the beta version of B508 not very good for you, i would really like to know what the difference is before flashing another rom?
Thank you very much for your help & assistance and your prompt replies.

Hi!
I'm glad to hear you made it. Why I use CM? Well, there really is no good answer to that. I was using CM on all my other phones too, I'm used to it, I like its speed and stability, I like look and feel and also I like it's additional options. That being said, there is one problem not with CM but with Jelly bean in general. Android 4.2 has a different directory structure, due to its new multiuser features. The problem with that is that you can't install apps on sd card and you can't use directory bind to bind data from sd card. So if you wish to play some games on your phone you will be limited by your phone's memory capacity. I hate this, I used to have a lot of big games on my phone and now I can't have more than two at the same time. At the moment I'm reverting back to 4.0.3 ROM just because of that, at least until theres some kind of solution or workaround for this.
Also theres nothing stopping you from playing with other ROM's. Just make a full backup in recovery and you can always go back to the ROM you find most suitable. In fact I would encourage you to download a few ROM's and try them out, see which one you like the most and which one suits your needs the best.

Thanks for your advice, you & this forum have been nothing short of brilliant, i myself is contemplating going back to ICS 4.0.3 as it also had the option to install apps on to the SD card, as it is my phone memory is almost full which makes even updating apps difficult as there's no more room to even do this.
I've tried certain apps like gemini app manager & driodsail to move apps to the SD card but none of these seem to work. I'm thinking of trying the official B226 firmware from Huawei just to see if it is ok, i know by doing this it will erase the root permissions, as i can't find a rooted version of this firmware and so will need to root again, but now that i have touch recovery on the phone it will be i presume easier to do this.
I hope they have made improvements on B226, because one of the reasons i actually upgraded to JB 4.1.1 was the sound from the stock google music player seemed low in comparison to JB where the sound was a lot better.
Do you think Huawei will release an official Jellybean firmware for this phone?
Any way thanks again, and keep in touch by letting me know how you got on, would be interested to know on what Rom and why and i shall also let you know on anything that i try or use.
Install apps on sd card, jelly bean 4.2

Hey!
I managed to solve the problem with low internal memory on 4.2. I partitioned my sd card with Mini tool partition wizard, made [fat32 ~16Gb] [ext4 ~ 14Gb], and then I used Mounts2SD app from google play to mount my ext partition as internal storage (Reversed Mount option in app). So far everything seems to be working just fine. (I tried the normal mount, just to move data folder to sd-ext but it didn't work).

Hey,
That's great news, i can't even download Mount2SD from google play as it keeps on saying i have insufficient space on internal storage. I have 255mb left surely this app is not bigger than that, so what could be the problem? as i cant even update existing apps. maybe something got messed up and it's either giving the wrong internal storage amount or something, as i was able to update apps from the google play as soon as i rooted and flashed gapps.zip. Now after that first lot i can't seem to download anymore apps or even update them as it's reporting as insufficient storage space and this is with even un-installing some apps. I may have to flash the firmware again to get rid of any crap that was in there and flash recovery/root & gapps as well.

Just try to do a full wipe and reflash the rom. I'm still using CM10.1 and it works great. (except the video recording still doesn't work). Be sure to flash the right version of gapps. You can partition your sd card before doing all this, you can even partition it with cwm but it supports the maximum size of 4Gb, so I used mini tool partition wizard (as I mentioned before). When you're done, install mounts2sd from google play, install scripts from there and choose reverse mount option, restart your phone and that should be it, your sd-ext partition is now mounted as internal storage. I strongly recommend class 10 sd cards for this, I'm using one myself and so far haven't experience any lag, even games work perfectly.

Thanks mate, i'll give that a go.
Just out of interest now that you have changed the format of your microsd card to ext4, is it still visible as a drive when you connect to the pc,or did you have another program in Windows to make them visible?

Yes, if you connect it as MTP device it shows as u9200 device with two partitions: internal storage (which is sd-ext partition) and sd card.

I was trying to clean install Oxygen OS 4.0 onto my OnePlus 3. I did a huge mistake of formatting my entire data off of my OnePlus 3 using Wipe > Format Data > Yes in TWRP and now I cannot use my phone.
I don't know how to install the OS on the phone again and I am stuck. I don't even have a spare phone right now.
Can someone please help me? I tried checking the other forums, but they were confusing and I didn't understand anything. Please help me.
I tried downloading the software from OnePlus's website, but I couldn't install it through ADB cause the file is for some odd reason corrupt.
Please, somebody help me. I can't even send it back to OnePlus cause I am in a different country ATM.
I had trouble with OB10 and adb. Said it couldn't read the file. I instead flashed TWRP and enabled mtp from there. I then pushed the full ROM to internal storage. Fastboot flashed the stock recovery and used 'upgrade from internal'. That flashed it fine. Then I reinstalled TWRP and SuperSU.

Have you downloaded the full ROM? Make sure you download the full rom from oneplus's website or any of the mirrors available on various forums on xda. Flash it normally like you flash a custom rom. It will work as I have done it a lot of times. Your file must have been corrupt.

Go to: h*t*t*p*://downloads.oneplus.net/oneplus-3/oneplus_3_oxygenos_3.2.8/ (REMOVE STARS) download both stock recovery and rom of OOS v3.2.8 (located at the bottom of the page). Flash stock recovery via fastboot (I hope you know how to). After it was flashed, disconnect the cable, turn off the device in fastboot (power off). Then hold power and volume down keys down to boot into recovery. From there ADB sideload the stock OOS v3.2.8. Let it boot up and update to OOS 4.0 via OTA.
P.s. If you need the actual steps, let me know. I'll update it in this post.

I had an issue with custom twrp + Freedom OS v2.0 (OOS v4.0). No xposed, a lot of battery issues with performance and toggling settings issues too. So I decided to stick with Freedom OS 1.7 (OOS v3.2.8) until OnePlus fixes the issues, with xposed available for Nougat and official twrp being released to support Nougat. Also, whenever I flashed custom twrp, which was recommended by the dev, it always asked me for a password. I did have PIN code with fingerprint option, a pattern option or none at all. All of which did not help bypass it, even using "default_password". I was stuck with OOS v4.0, somehow, with no twrp to work with as it locked my data. I backed my files before flashing from OOS v3.2.8 to OOS v4.0, lucky me. I managed to do what I have explained in the first response.
Hello everyone,
i finally got the unlock code and moved from chinese to xiaomi.eu MIUI 10 rom . I installed lazyflasher, TWRP 3.2.3 and was good to go in a reasonable amount of time but i hit a wall. for work i need to encrypt my phone, it's non-negotiable and has to be done. but when i try to do it, the operation fails. as much as i read it's because newest versions of twrp reserve/lock/enumerate all the blocks of /data and there's not enough space to store encryption files in the /data. There are two ways out of this: either downgrade to an earlier version of TWRP ( 3.1.0 should work) or extend the /data partition. Now the problem is that i have already set up a lot on this phone so a complete wipe will be painful..
So my question is, can i get encrypted without wiping my phone? is there a way to downgrade TWRP or extend /data without formatting / wiping?
I also need an encrypted phone ...
Have you tried this?

just flash recovery image in twrp
i flashed nijel's TWRP and now i can get through that window i was stuck on, but i get a toast with "find device closed unexpectedly" . i disabled find my phone and logged out of the xiaomi account i had on the phone, then rebooted and tried again. same thing. maby i should root and give full rights or something to the location app....
Hello,
It all began that i just wanted to restart my Oneplus3 unlocked with lineage 15.
But then back in Lineage15 i wasnt able to use my pin anymore + it restarted after few seconds...
Afterwards i ended up in a lineage bootloop.
Ok, then i thought then i do a fresh flash with new lineage 16.
I tried to flash but it said i need to install new modem firmware for Lineage16.
I downdloaded the new 9.0.5 modem + firmware and flashed it from here : https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/op3-flashable-firmware-modem-zips-t3816066
Then i tried to flash LOS16 again but it failed due to some errors on unable to mount some partitions (cache , system, etc).
So i thought i need to wipe or reformat them, as some people suggested to switch from ext4 to fat and back to reinit the partition.
I did this for at least system and internal storage. ( i learned that it was a dumb idea )
Afterwards i was not able to push anything anymore through MTP in TWRP, but i was still able to sideload or push images via adb.
Afterwards i tried to flash LOS16 or LOS15 via TWRP again but it always ends up to a "unable to mount /system (invalid argument" error at some point of the installation.
I thought: Okey maybe i go back to stock as i messed up the internal file system somehow, and go back to LOS afterwards.
So i flashed the stock recovery for nougat which i got from here: https://www.****************/2017/0...th-latest-oxygen-os-firmware-complete-unroot/
Then i tried to flash various stock Oxygen roms with the stock recovery, by using wipe + system reset + adb sideload:
4.02, 4.51, 5.08, 9.0.5
4.02 and 9.0.5 didnt run until the end.
Flashing 5.08 works but ends up in a black screen when starting it.
Flashing 4.51 works but when i start it i run into a bootloop ( 2 Dots circuling forever )
I also tried to use the 4.51 version to flash LOS again but it did not work out
I just tried again to flash 4.51 but it also didnt work out anymore. :\
So, what do you think i could do to get a working OS on my system again?
Did i do something on the installation of LOS or Oxygen ?
Can i use a backup from a friends Oneplus3_T to get a working system partition / full OS again?
Should i unbrick the phone by using one of various guides to go back to fully stock? I am kind of afraid of this, as some people describe some final brick in the threads which may be caused by modem firmware problems (Sahara issue). https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/guide-oneplus-3-3t-unbrick.531047/ or https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/guide-mega-unbrick-guide-for-a-hard-bricked-oneplus-3.452634/
Thank you so much, i kind of getting mad about it

Backup from 3T seems like a bad idea.
You may have a hardware issue.
Your best bet is to use one of the tools available in the various unbrick guides. If one doesn't work, try another.
Best of luck!
Hi thx for your help!
i tried different unbrick tools (9.0.5 / 3.1.2 / 4.0.5) and after several attempts i get it flashed to the phone. But in the end it still ends up in a bootloop, either at the android logo or the circuling dots. Via Sideload i am also not able to flash a new OS. It always breaks somewhen >50%.
In very rare cases i am then able to go to the OS, but when i go to "About Phone" to unlock it for TWRP, it freezes before showing anything. I guess there is internally something broken which forbids it to show the internal state of the phone. Every boot is different, and i cannot see any system in this failure of my phone.
Do you have any more hint?
I am already at a point where i want to exchange the main PCB.. Is this possible for the Oneplus3? Can i also exchange it with a Oneplus3T PCB?
