Hard Bricked? Please Help! - OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers

Hey guys,
first what happened.
I was running the latest CM 14.1 nightly on my oneplus 3. Then I saw the new Video from xda on youtube. I installed substratum and a theme. But after rebooting I got a bootloop.
Tried resetting via cm recovery did not work. Then tried resetting via fastboot. Also did not work device won't boot up.
So I tried flashing the original boot.img and system.img. Flashing itself worked great. Phone gets to the OP and Android-Logo then screen goes black and device turnes off. Same with the twrp-recovery I tried to flash. Won't boot into recovery.
What can I do/try?
Please help thx

[Q] Note II keeps booting into recovery mode

Hey guys,
I apologize if this has been asked and resolved a thousand times already. I've searched through this sub-forum and the threads on it didn't seem to have a solution that worked for me.
The issue: I just recently flashed CM 12 Nightly and Gapps, along with changing recovery from CWM to TWRP. I flashed TWRP via Odin, then installed CM 12 and Gapps via TWRP. I was able to get into CM 12 ONCE and it worked just fine, but when I restarted my phone after the initial flash, it now just constantly boots into TWRP.
To clarify for those that might wonder: I can get into TWRP and download mode just fine. I just...can't get beyond them.
What I've tried: I found these instructions - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21301573&postcount=3
However I can't get ADB to find my device as I can't actually boot it into the OS. If I should be going about this a different way then please let me know.
I've also tried reflashing the recovery, reflashing the ROM and Gapps, reflashing my old ROM and Gapps, wiping Dalvik, cache, and data partition (both via TWRP and Odin), pulling the battery and starting as normal, booting into download mode and then rebooting from there.
All of the above has got me no luck so far.
If any of you have any suggestions then I would be very grateful. Cheers.
I managed to get back into my phone by flashing my carrier's stock ROM via Odin, worked a treat.
Time to start again!

Can only boot into fastboot mode anymore

Hey guys,
I have a problem with my Z1C.
I used CM 12.1 quite a while now and I wanted to know how much difference is to Android 6.
So I downloaded the Remix Resurrection rom and flashed the boot.img in fastboot mode to replace the CM-recovery with TWRP. That was a bit tricky, because CM deleted TWRP again and again and booted in the CM-recovery.
So, finally I got TWRP working, after booting directly into the recovery after flashing the boot.img via fastboot.
TWRP now told me, that no OS is installed. I tried to wipe the phone and to install the RR-rom, but the recovery always said that it has the wrong version (?).
So I flashed the boot.img from the Cyanogenmod-zip and was able to boot into CM again. But now there seems to be no recovery on the phone. Whenever I try to boot to the recovery, the Sony logo appears and the notification light turns into orange, but then it starts again to do so.
At the moment I try to boot into CM again, but I think it has stucked in a bootloop...
What can I do here? The only thing what works is to boot into fastboot mode, but without the system.img I cant flash any roms there. How can I fix this?
Thanks!

Shut down your device and press volume up button while connecting it to your computer. Then it will boot into fastboot mode and you should be able to flash stock firmware in flashtool, and then you can start from scratch.

Another option is to follow this guide to install Recovery and When done you can boot into Recovery and flash a custom rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/general/fota-twrp-recovery-amami-t2909719

Try Rashr app from play store. It sounds to me like incompatible kernel/recovery combo. Download a recovery IMG, (latest TWRP, for example), then use Rashr to flash it. You can also use it for flashing a boot IMG. Its probably the same reason you had trouble flashing ROM.
Besides that, you can install real recovery, which works the same regardless of the kernel-

Okay, after flashing it with flashtool it starts again. I now put the RR rom with Android 5.1 on.
I have again the CM recovery, but at least it starts how it should.
I will try to flash the real recovery, thanks!
Update:
Currently running RR with Android 5.1.
I would now like to use RR with Android 6, but again, I can only boot into the Cyanogen recovery, which cant make a backup of the currently running OS. I have tried to flash the boot.img from RR 5.1 with fastboot, Rashr, but nothing seems to work, as it puts me back to the Cyanogen recovery every time. How can I replace the Cyanogen recovery?
And one more question: When the phone starts, the notification light turns into red before the Sonmy logo appears and then turns into pink. What does the red light mean?

You need a recovery img, not boot img. Try this one - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=65361797&postcount=78 or this one - http://forum.xda-developers.com/sony-xperia-z1-compact/general/fota-twrp-recovery-amami-t2909719 Open Rashr, choose ' recovery from storage'.
Okay, i flashed the 2.8.6.0 version via Rashr and now Im stuck on the Sony logo...the notification light is orange all the time, but I cant restart the phone anymore...any suggestions?
Edit: Worked! Used the combination between power and Vol+ to reset, and now it starts!
You should disable CM Recovery Protection – On your phone go to Settings > Developer options. Then disable the ‘Update recovery with system updates’ option. Otherwise it will keep installing cm recovery itself.

Unable to boot into recovery

Hello, I flashed CM14 Nougat 7.1.1 and everything worked fine until I tried to boot into recovery to get access to TWRP. If I try and boot into recovery I get the 1+ logo and then just a black screen and i have to hard reboot the phone to use it again. After the hard reboot it just goes back to nougat. I downloaded the TWRP APK to try and restore my previous save but it just does the same thing.
Can anyone help?
Thank you.
I get the same problem. This is WHY we should BACKUP it first. but I didd't, and so are you. I was having lots of works and did not check much news about CM for a long time. but yes, I get the rumors about CM getting shut down. and I check the news. Today I found out CM is shutting down, and my phone is not working.
But, hey, who am I. OnePlus 3 User with lots of experience.
So I tried CM recovery, the newest version works, but there is no backup option, I tried old CM13 recovery. it also black screen. This confirm my theory, this is due to Android 7.1 or CM14.1 upgrade
How to solve this problem?
I found this
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/development/rom-hydrogenos-h2os-beta-edition-oct-t3482259
go to this thread, and download modified TWRP.
BACKUP.
Install your new ROM via any XDA rom. not the CM14.1 build on Dec 25.
Note: If you want Android 7.xx, you could flash the Official Beta ROM(above), or download modem from

Need help, stuck on recovery after 4.0.3 OTA

Hey all, so I did a stupid thing and did the OTA while I still had TWRP for recovery. Now I can only boot to recovery and am getting the dm_verity error. I have attempted to flash the stock recovery via fastboot, but no difference, still reboots into TWRP. I also tried flashing the full 4.0.2 and full 4.0.3 images, but same result. Any ideas?
which version of twrp were you on? try reflashing the latest modded twrp by eng.stk or the 3.0.4.1.
I am on twrp-3.0.2-1.28-oneplus3.img

Try flashing the latest one by eng.stk and then do a clean flash of the ROM you want.

I flashed the 3.0.4-1 TWRP from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/development/recovery-official-twrp-oneplus-3-3t-t3543391 before I saw your last message. Then flashed the 4.0.3 full OTA (can be found in the same thread). One bootloop and everything started up (took about 5 min for first boot). Thanks for your help!
Hi dude, try this recovery (TWRP 3.0.4-1).
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/development/recovery-official-twrp-oneplus-3-3t-t3543391
OOS 4.0.3 works well on my device with this recovery.
That happened to me once. All i did is turned the phone off completely and let it sit there for couple of seconds and turn it back on. No more recovery bootloop.
And if everything does not help... flash official recovery again and it will work fine. After one boot you can hop back to a RECENT TWRP

Black screen while loading into recovery

I had a ResurrectionRemix ROM running on my Zenfone 2 ZE551ML. I wanted to install the Marshmallow update of the stock rom, so I downloaded it from Asus' site and tried flashing it. However, something went wrong, so I ended up re-flashing my ResurrectionRemix ROM.
The phone booted properly and worked pretty well, but there was no play store so I had to go to recovery and flash gapps. When I tried to boot into recovery, all I got is a black screen. I know for a fact that while the black screen is on, TWRP loads and the phone goes into a bootloop because it keeps vibrating (the kind of vibrate that a phone does when you start it) every few minutes. Do you know how I can fix this?
Also, when the phone is booting, I no longer get the white splash screen which indicates an unlocked bootloader. I simply get a blurred screen, followed by RessurectionRemix's logo. The Asus logo never shows up for some reason.
First of all, you need to reflash the stock recovery in order to flash a stock rom. Stock does not need gapps. To revive your device, reflash twrp thru adb, boot to twrp, do a full wipe then reflash resurrection remix

Well you see the thing is, in order to flash twrp again, I'll need to boot into the bootloader using adb. But I can't.
The phone boots normally and works just fine, but it neither enters into recovery mode, nor into bootloader mode. All I get is a black screen when I try to boot into either of them.
Any help would be highly appreciated
