Flash the factory Google images via fastboot. Search the forum. There a quite a few threads with step by step instructions.

Try pressing the volume down button and power button until you reach recovery. When you a red triangle, press Vol+/Vol-/Power at the same time, you will now see a menu, select factory data reset.

I've been in your shoes, and I doubt a factory reset will help. If I were you, I would download the stock images first (lte or GSM nexus?). After that, try seeing if your drivers are configured and that tour phone is being recognized by your computer when it is plugged in with the USB cable. The drivers will need to be configured for when the phone is showing the Google logo, but also configured again when the phone is in the boot loader. (Ask if you need more instructions for this).
OK, what worked for me was locking and then unlocking my phone again. Type fast boot OEM lock, and if the drivers are good then the boot loader will lock. Then type fast boot OEM unlock and it will wipe everything--even Android backups. It shoud also delete the problem. After that you can push files to it from the computer but you might have to configure your drivers again (I did). Hope this helps, it worked for me.

Have you tried flashing via fastboot? I would assume if fastboot oem unlock/lock works, then flashing using fastboot/android sdk should work.
...though, as a non dev, i have been wrong before

what do you mean by "pushing the files"? What are you trying to push?

Good, make sure you boot loader has been unlocked. You can use a program like the root toolkit (I don't think I can put a link to a different website) but he root toolkit for the nexus should help you push the stock image to your phone. Go to droid-life (.com, cough cough) and there is a set of instructions for returning back to stock. You can also use those same instructions to try and get her back up and running. Try the root toolkit they have on there, too. The only problem you might run into is having your phone set to USB debugging after unlocking the boot loader, bit it should still accept fast boot commands while I'm the bootloader

sorry, by pushing the files I mean pushing the stock image file (the stock software, including the stock operating system, stock bootloader, and stock radios). A rom is a custom tweaked version of the stock software. When you unlock the bootloader, if you don't have stock software on there (which you wont if you were running a rom when it crashed) then it might erase everything, including the from you were running. You will have to push that stock software (stock image file) back to your phone using commands from your computer

I hate that.. because you didn't know what you were doing and screwed up your phone someone is supposed to provide you with a new one? As a few posters have already said, it should be a fairly easy fix. You didn't even acknowledge that you tried any of the suggested fixes. If you're going to mess around with your phone make sure you know what you're doing, or at the very least exhaust all potential options to get yourself out of a soft brick. I'm sure an experienced Android user could have you up and running in 10 minutes. It's no wonder providers don't want to unlock bootloaders on some phones.. Jesus...

i tryed all i got it too boot back into the OS but reset itself and locked in google with unlocked padlock. so gave up and will not make the same mistake of not copying over the rom after the root n unlock.. i have flashed/unlocked my samsung s2 with ODIN which was easy but the Nexus i used Galaxy Nexus ToolKit

One Plus 3 no OS, no USB Debug, locked Bootloader, not rooted and stock recovery

My One Plus 3 managed to delete its own Operating System, USB Debugging wasnt enabled, the Bootloader is not unlocked, its not rooted either and I dont have a custom recovery like TWRP installed. I tried to flash it wtih the adb console commands but it stops at some percentage and the device says that the installation failed (tried this with cm, oxygen and pacman). I tried to install TWRP over fastboot but cant manage it because USB Debugging isnt activated. I dont know what to do and need help
PS: Hope this Post is in the right thread

Bricked device?

Hi,
I wanted to install the Linage ROM, so started the process of routing my tablet, which was running Oreo. I unlocked the bootloader and have installed TWRP 3.1.1-1. This is where my problems began. I did have USB debugging enabled but when I started the bootloader unlocking this facility seems to have been removed.
I now have a screen that says 'bootloader is unlocked and OS verification is OFF. Device will continue booting in 30s' The tablet then hangs on the Google logo when it tries to boot up. If I connect the tablet to my mac via USB it goes back to
the 'bootloader is unlocked screen' So I wiped the tablet completely as I was unable to install anything via ADB, thinking I would be able to install via OTG, but the zips are not being detected in TWRP. The tablet also is not being detected when using fastboot. Does anyone have any idea how to get this tablet working again, or is it bricked? Thanks in advance for any guidance that can be given

You can always use the factory images from google.

Thanks for your assistance. Unfortunately I am unable to use ADB and TWRP is not seeing my zips when using OTG, so not sure if it will work. I'll try and put the factory image on my USB and see if it works. Anyone know why TWRP is not seeing the zips on my USB?

I have managed to get OTG working using TWRP and have installed the zip files, but when I reboot I get to the bootloader is unlocked and OS verification is OFF. Device will continue booting in 30s' screen. Is there anyway around this , or am I going to have wipe and relock?

Look at the amount of storge it shows. Mine says zero. It appears we have to put a password in to TWRP for us to see the files before we can zip them.

It didn't work in the end. As soon as I connected the tablet to my mac I was getting the same annoying message. I had to RMA it in the end.

No way to unbrick this phone

Hey guys,
I've got a Oneplus 3 that freezes every time it tries to boot. Fastboot and recovery are still working, factory reset makes no difference. After sideloading the latest OxygenOs the screen just goes blank after the Oneplus splash screen and recovery doesn't work anymore. The MsmDownloadTool only gets me where I started, back at the bootloop. So the old OOS gives me bootloop with recovery and fastboot while the new OOS only gives me fastboot and a blank screen.
New system with old working boot and recovery gives "md5 checksum failed".
The bootloader is locked and as long as I can't get in the settings there is no way to unlock it, so my options are pretty limited here.
I've contacted Oneplus but they aren't really helping either.
Is there any way to get this thing back to life?

And why is it locked then? Why would you ever relock your bootloader? You should be able to unlock it anyway without going in to settings. Are you sure you are using the correct drivers? Windows installs the wrong once by default.

It has never been unlocked. In the settings is the "Allow OEM Unlock" option which you should check before you can unlock the bootloader. As long as I can't boot the phone I can't check this option, or someone must know a workaround. Yes I'm pretty sure I'm using the correct drivers

If you plug your phone in how does it show up under Device Manager? Have you also tried "fastboot OEM Unlock"?

When it's in the bootloader menu it shows up as "Android Bootloader Interface", when it's in EDL mode it shows up as "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM3)". It connects fine with the pc and flashes everything without problems as far as I can see. Yeah it says "FAILED (remote: oem unlock is not allowed)" probably because the allow oem unlock option in the settings isn't checked.

Most likely won't do anything, but have you tried a different computer? Seems like it would make no difference but tiny things like that have saved me in the past.

Pretty sure you are using wrong drivers. You should be able to unlock the bootloader even tho it is remote. When I first bricked my phone I forgot about the drivers aswell. My phone booted up and showed. System: Failed, Userdata:Failed. This means it failed to detect those partitions which you can find in unbrick program itself called system.img, userdata.img. You can actually flash these manually with fastboot flash system system.img but I also got the "Remote is not allowed error". After booting into disabled Driver Signature Enforcement mode and changing the drivers from on the guide I could actually flash these partitions. Your phone has to show up as Qualcomm 9008 or something close and not as Android Interfere Device. I have helped multiple people fixing their phone with this guide and they also had a locked bootloader and they also did not have the correct drivers.
Boot into https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.ho...so-that-you-can-install-unsigned-drivers/amp/ then install the driver linked on the Unbrick Guide. Your phone should show up correctly. Then run the unbrick guide as admin and it should go through flawless.

Tried everything it says in the guide about the drivers (even the last part about installing the certificates) but it just keeps showing up as qualcomm hs-usb qdloader 9008, even though I'm pretty sure they are installed correctly. It just won't show up as Qualcomm 9008, as it is supposed to, whatever I try. But it looks like these drivers are only for the EDL mode, and as far as I know it is normal for the phone to show up as Android Bootloader Interface when it's in the bootloader menu. And you can't use fastboot from EDL mode... Will try it later again on a different pc though, really hope you are right about the drivers after all

Hi Robert,
I am having same problem with my oneplus3. I also tried both unbrick methods and tried different oxygen ROMs.
Are you able to fix your phone?
Thanks in Advance,

Hi
Go back to an older Version...3.xx
worked for me
be warned ..3.xxx formats internal memory

I also have the same problem, I'll try to restore to old version too.
Do you also have artifacts on the screen?

Need Some Clarifications

Hi all,
After reading many posts i got a little confused and i'm not getting any result. Please help.
What i want?: Flash stock rom and later consider rooting, and flashing haden or lineagos. (already found guidance but..)
The issue?: It doesn't get recognized through USB with my PC. (drivers installed, cable connected but...)
My questions? (correct me if wished):
1) In Odin mode (which i enter) is the usb port enabled by default? or it depends on the phone configuration.
2) In recovery mode i still cannot see the phone through the USB so is it open by default on stock recovery?
3) Finally can i flash stock rom i downloaded from sammobile through SD card? i found that to be my last resort but i think odin actual proper way or not?
I first thought it was the cable...since is not the original but it seems not be the case...which leads me to think its the phone's usb port....but with the cable i can charge the phone although i cannot see it through my PC.
So bottom line if the answer to my questions are that is always open (accesible through usb port) then it HAS to be the cable right?
If last quesiton is possible then i will conclude my searchings to be ended for now.
Thanks to all the posts within this tree.

Is it normal that when boot to bootloader from stock recovery the ADB console keeps <waiting for device> while phone actually boots normaly?
I found that bootloader booting is accesible through fastboot independently from USB debugging option...
I'm considering buying official usb cable but store guy confirmed it works for data/power uses...

There definitely is a way to flash stock via TWRP, i once did that myself. However you need a dedicated tool on the PC to create a flashable zip, because the firmware can't be flashed by itself
Edit: i saw that you have FRP-lock enabled. Search for a guide on how to disable it and try again

Are you on Samsung? If so, they don't have fastboot. Nor can you boot to bootloader. Do
Do you have the drivers installed? I have yet to see an unofficial cable not work for data transfer. Excepting damaged ones.

To answer your question yes its SMSUNG. I didn't know about that Thx.

And to unlock the bootloader, just enable OEM unlock in the dev settings and it's ready to flash twrp. I remember when I got my Samsung and I was trying to fastboot unlock it lol.

Thanks to both of you! I will keep the thread on just in case...anyway may be it helps someone else.
