If you had searched for your problem, you would have come across this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/oos-3-5-2-comunity-build-t3461648/post68691560#post68691560. Reflash it in fastboot and it will work.

Are you running official TWRP? CM14.1 requires modified TWRP and I believe most people are using version 23 (Credits to @eng.stk) for CM14.1.

Oh I didnt know that, thank you
Thank you for both asking the question and answering the question. If I had seen this topic earlier I wouldn't have wasted 5 f*cking hours. Thank you!
CM13 nightly to CM14 nightly ruined everything for me. Never doing dirty flash again.

This is quite funny (obviously not to you and no offense) and sad, but people that have been used CM14.1 for a while have said the same thing for about 2 months now: "people coming to CM14.1 from 13 are in for a mess"

No offense taken. This is just what happens if you venture using MODs with limited knowledge
But the misery of updating hasn't ended yet. So now I have access to TWRP, and I had done a TWRP nand backup before going to CM14, but I found out this was from the Boot, System, EFS and System Image, but NOT from the 'data'. When I restore everything I have I do get back into CM13, but nothing is working and it's rebooting all the time. Completely useless. I just checked and both my data and sd-card are intact. So I don't understand why I am not just getting back to the state I was before starting the CM14 misery. Is this because files on the 'data' got changed when doing the OTA CM14 nightly?
I also tried first restoring the image and then putting the CM13 nightly that I came from on top of it. Same ****. Also tried other way around, first CM13 nightly from TWRP, and then the image restore ('data' excluded since I didn't have that) on top of it. Also no luck.
Anyone an idea how to get back to my CM13?
By now I have wasted a full working day. I regret ever installing CM14, I just want to get back to the situation yesterday with a working CM13... :crying:

Exactly, when I got my TWRP working again I tried to restore my backup (cm13) but it happened like you said, wouldn't work.
I had to clean flash a new cm13 rom :/

Why were you unable to use your backup to restore CM13? In my case I didn't have a backup of the data-partition, which I think is the problem. But if you have a complete backup you should be able to get it back right? Isn't that the whole purpose of doing a backup before you update the ROM?

Okay so if you restored a complete backup and still wasn't able to get back to a working CM13 then we probably have exactly the same issue.
It could also be related to the TWRP version we have installed now, maybe the new TWRP is not able to handle CM13. Anyone here to comment on this?

Which TWRP version are you using? I flashed the 3.0.2.1-v23 and it supports cm13, because o already flashed a new cm13 rom and I'm using TWRP normally.

hello,
(with "this rom" i mean >sultan cm13<. I edited the title, before that it "was can't but sultan cm13", but now i know it doesnt boots any aosp roms)
a few days ago i used this rom as secondary with multirom (primary was freedom 1.10). now today, i wanted to use this rom as my dailydriver rom. i made the normal procedure, making a backup, then wiping the partitions (system, data, cache, dalvik) and after it flashing the rom. on the first try, i did it like i usually do, first the rom, then the gapps and then xposed. then i rebooted, and it was stuck on the 1+ logo screen about 10 mins. then i reflashed it, but just the cm.zip. then i still got stuck.
i tried it with the unofficial and the official twrp recovery. now i did a nandroid restore to the freedomos rom, and it boots normal.
please help me, i really want to use sultans cm13, i really like it!
i don't know why it doesn't work, i mean as a secondary it booted flawless..
btw i'm on the 3.2.7 firmware
(problem exists on all 6.0 aosp roms i tried. Please read further posts)
Did you follow the flashing instructions to the letter? If you did, you would have seen that the CM13 requires a one time flash of the OOS 3.2.6 firmware (linked in the thread).
Yeah sure but it did work with the 3.2.7 firmware on multirom, so i thought i dont have to do this. Well i will try this, and give you feedback then
Thanks

BTW, which xposed version did you flash? If it was v86.x then that's the most likely culprit (since the latest patch, v87 works, v86.x causes bootloop).
i just flashed the 3.2.6 firmware, still does not work.
yes i used the v87 xposed, also the second try i only installed the cm.zip, without xposed and gapps, etc.

i gonna try to flash RR 5.7.4, to see what happens then
edit: what i forgot to say, i also reinstalled multirom and the multirom recovery for another try. in the multirom menu the touch doesn't work then, and when the primary rom (cm13 sultan) boots after 5 secs, i just get a black screen, the phone isnt of, just a black screen, i have to press all 3 buttons for a reboot then.
edit2: RR also does not boot
edit3: lol i just reinstalled multirom and it boots as secondary rom. then i copied it to the primary slot, and *bling* it doesn't boot again... i dont get this...
Ok i tried it with multiple AOSP roms and it simply doesn't work. Strange thing is, they work as a secondary rom when i have multirom installed.
Does anybody have a solution for this maybe? I hope someone who knows about this problem can help me i don't want oos anymore i need aosp
hello all,
I have a rooted OP3 running the latest TWRP recovery. Using these instructions I am trying to upgrade to 3.2.8 from 3.2.7. There are no errors displayed during OOS or SuperSU install steps.
But when the phone reboots - it stays stuck at the boot animation. This happens across several attempts. I do not have xposed installed, if it helps. Repeating the above steps with a 3.2.7 image works without issues.
Is there any way I can figure out where the 3.2.8 reboot is getting stuck at? I *do not* want to do a fresh install.
Any thoughts/ Suggestions? I have already posted at the above thread and thought I'd try my luck here too.
EDIT: Can a MOD please move this to Q&A forum. Just realized I posted to Guides, News & Discussion.

Flash the new Beta 10. i'm currently using it with root and it works great

I was mulling over installing the Beta - but I understand Nougat is due in Jan? Also, is there a process to move to b10 without losing data?

Did you download the full 3.2.8 zip from http://downloads.oneplus.net? I did. And to my surprise, it erases the whole userdata partition, including TWRP backups and downloaded files (including SuperSU zip). So big warning if you try with that zip. I assume that this zip is intended for those reverting from Nougat Beta, to go back from F2FS to EXT4.
My solution was to restore an old TWRP backup that was saved on my PC and then reflash a modified full 3.2.8 zip where the last line in the update script was removed: the one that erases userdata partition. So before flashing full 3.2.8 zip from http://downloads.oneplus.net I recommend you to remove the last line in the update script.
No, I downloaded the Full ZIP from this official thread on the OP3 forums. I was aware of that line though. And from previous experience - the first thing I do when I make a TWRP backup is to move it off the phone. That and I purchased Titanium Backup long time ago. I use it to back up stuff surgically and sync it up to Dropbox every night. The app also seems to have the ability to make a recovery-flashable "update.zip" - something I have yet to try.
Appreciate the heads-up though.

OK. I also use TB, and from now on I use cloud storage :laugh:
After the full modified 3.2.8 zip I successfully flashed official SuperSU 2.79, Xposed v87 and Bluspark r25 kernel. I use F2FS on data partition. It boots and runs fine!
The only thing I'm a bit concerned about is that it stays on the bootlogo (OnePlus logo, Powered by Android) for about 25 secs before the bootanimation begins when booting to system. Much faster before. When booting to recovery (TWRP 28, Bluspark) the time on bootlogo is normal (short). Any thoughts on that?
I wish I had, man. You went a number of steps ahead when your phone went past the boot animation
As a afterthought - try looking through your logs.

Cannot dirty flash
I currently have thomson.aa's unofficial lineage os build installed. This update shows up in the updater app, but after I download it, it says the zip is corrupt or unsigned and it does not let me install it. If I manually download it and try to install via TWRP, it fails saying "can't install this package on top of incompatible data. Please try another package or run a factory reset". I would hate to have to reinstall all my stuff, though. Is there some way around this? Or is there something wrong with the update?
Got no problems installing it via TWRP. Works great, stable so far.
crdroid was fine too, lots of special settings (little too much for me), but I prefer a ROM with regular OTA updates. Thank you beroid anyway.
P.S. My grammar help changes "beroid" to "heroic"
Can this be installed over the top of cm13.0 nightly?

You basically asked the same question in 2 threads??? So as this isn't really thomson.aa's problem, I'll answer you here.
I dirty flashed from stock -> cm13 -> crDroid -> thomson.aa's LOS14 without issue. I tried with the official release and got the same as you. So after editing the installer script to force it to install, it did. But once it booted, everything kept force closing. It just wasn't happening.
So I wiped data and chose to restore my backup from google. I just installs most of your apps but it saves a bit of time. Still need to set things up properly though.

I figured this might be due to either
- Something being wrong with the currently installed build
- Something being wrong with the one I'm trying to install

Thanks for your reply. I guess I'll have to do another reinstall then.

I have no wifi, too (after trying a dirty install over an old CM13 that resulted in an error). Here's the issue in their bugtracker, I think, in case anyone else experiences this.
Got the same issue when trying to go back to CM13 now -___-
Seems strange that I've had no wifi issues. I've tried turning it on and off with no problems.
A few (maybe patronising) thoughts:
Did you guys check the md5 hash?
Which recovery did you use? I used TWRP 3.0.2.5
Were you previously on COS13.1.2? I was.
I downloaded fresh open-gapps for the install - ARM64, 7.1, nano.
I wiped system, dalvik, cache. Installed LOS14.1, su, gapps in that order.
The dirty boot left me with lots of force closures so I wiped data, dalvik and cache, completed the wizard after booting and all was fine.

I was on the latest CyanogenMod snapshot.
I wiped data, dalik and cache, then installed lineage, gapps and su. Restoring a nandroid backup of CM13 did bring the wifi back again.
I then wanted to restore my backup of lineage, because I already transferred most apps and settings and don’t care to much for the wifi (hoping it will be solved in not too far future), but TWRP failed to recover, getting stuck while restoring data, only restoring the system partition. Strangely, after this, the wifi worked, however I experienced many FCs. After wiping data again, the wifi was broken again, the MAC adress showing as 02:00:00:00:00:00.
Wiping system, I tried to reinstall lineage without any extras, but TWRP just got stuck again with no progress being made after detection of the partitions. Strangely, restoration of the lineage backup worked now, including data The original problem persists, of course.
I mentioned COS13.1.2 specifically because it flashes partitions other than system that may affect your situation. CM doesn't. If you've had COS13.1.2 installed previously then these other partitions should be up to date.
If you're having inconsistent results using TWRP3.0.3 it may be worth trying 3.0.2.5.

I'm currently running my OP3 on Resurrection Remix 5.7.4 (MM 6.01), the phone has the latest version of TWRP and I've flashed other ROMs in the past without any issue
RR has proven to be quite unstable for me, the system UI keeps crashing, which renders the phone unusable until after a reboot so I wanted to flash Freedom OS as that worked quite well for me previously. When I tried to flash the ROM in TWRP the ROM seemed to flash successfully but when I rebooted, only the boot logo showed and then the screen went black and the phone refused to respond at all for about two hours, after that exactly the same thing happened. I managed to boot into recovery and tried flashing a different ROM but the result was the same every time, the only way to get the phone to work normally was to flash RR again/restore from a Nandroid backup, either way, the result is the same, I'm stuck on an unstable ROM and I don't know why, the last time I flashed these ROMs they worked fine, I followed all of the instructions for flashing said ROMs to the letter, I have the latest version of TWRP, etc.
Seems TWRP can't mount /system, in TWRP under "mount", system is unchecked, I checked it and tried again but found that whenever I rebooted the phone or attempted to flash a new ROM, it would always uncheck itself and flashing the ROM would fail, however strangely flashing the same version of RR was always successful. Does anyone know what the problem could be?
I would suggest you clean flash OOS first before going to Freedom.
I think RR is based on Lineage OS while Freedom is based on stock OOS.

RR is based on CM. I'm just scared to flash OOS in case it goes wrong because stock OOS will overwrite TWRP with its stock recovery and then I'll be screwed because I'll have no way to restore from a backup if it goes wrong

I don't think that there is a risk in flashing stock OOS. But if the custom recovery is overwritten then flash it back, your backup files are stored in your internal memory and unless you wipe it you are safe.

Even when I tried flashing other CM based ROMs, including ones I'd flashed before, it failed, only flashing RR actually worked. I don't know why this is the case but I'm not sure flashing OOS without knowing what the issue is, is the solution because if I lose TWRP there's no telling whether I'll be able to flash it back in fastboot if the phone isn't working properly

I once flashed RR based on android 7.1.1 and because I did not like it very much I wanted to go back to Freedom but at that time it was based on android 7.0.1 thus I was unable to boot. Maybe you are facing the same issue. But in my case I hardbricked my device and used the unbricking tool from OP3 forum.
If you download the latest OOS zip file you can flash it through TWRP and you won't lose you custom recovery.

All of the ROMs I tried with were android 6.0.1, I'm avoiding touching android 7 because I'm not a fan
The strange thing is that in TWRP under "mount", system is unchecked and it won't stay checked when I reboot or try to flash something and then the flash fails. Strangely however, I can flash RR afresh and it will work but nothing else works
Therefore I don't think OOS would work either
Hey all. I recently factory reset my P2XL due to certain issues, so I'm back on stock, 8.1.
I'm going to root it again soon and all that jazz. If I plan on staying on stock everything (kernel, rom (when custom roms are developed), etc), is there a reason to install TWRP? I'd rather wait for an official TWRP to come out for TWRP backup purposes, but I can't really think of a reason to flash the beta for now.
I just boot the TWRP image whenever I need it. I haven't bothered to install it. No real reason to since I can't do backups with it anyway.

Hey all. I recently factory reset my P2XL due to certain issues, so I'm back on stock, 8.1. I'm going to root it again soon and all that jazz. If I plan on staying on stock everything (kernel, rom (when custom roms are developed), etc), is there a reason to install TWRP? I'd rather wait for an official TWRP to come out for TWRP backup purposes, but I can't really think of a reason to flash the beta for now.

No. You can always fastboot boot it if the need arises. Reboot and it's gone.
TWRP is official now :good:

Have you flashed it yet? Did backups work on the 3.1.1 beta2 or just this new version?

Yep, it flashed just fine. Already flashed a couple of zips with it. Haven't tried backup/restore yet, but I'll get there :good:
