hello,
i have a very very strange problem updating linegaos:
in my other tread i told about my "error 7" problem during flashing. Flashing the betafirmware solved this issue.
but the problem I am facing now is more disturbing:
maybe my problem has a connection to the fact, that I flashed twrp 3.1.0-0 yesterday which wiped my phone., therefore let me tell shortly. I had to restore nandroid backup (including recovery) to put my phone to the previous state. after this nandroid, the gapps were missing (because, i think, there were no gapps on the wiped phone). so i flashed gapps (and SuperSu) again and resigned into google account, many apps were still not working, so i restored them with titanium. but i did not feel comfortable with this messy solution so i flashed nandroid again (this time with gapps on the previous installation) and the phone is, as far as i can tell, in the exact condition as before this mess.
BUT NOW THE ACTUAL PROBLEM:
situation now is: twrp 3.0.4-1, lineage-14.1-20170302-nightly-oneplus3-signed, OnePlus3_OpenBeta12-FIRMWARE+MODEM-flashable installed.
aim is: updating lineageos to lineage-14.1-20170309-nightly-oneplus3-signed.
what I did:
booting to recovery --> install --> select lienage.zip --> flash --> wipe dalvik/cache --> boot into system. (then reboot into twrp and flash superSU --> wipe cache/dalvik). So far so good, the update worked, but my gapps (and with them my account connection) was gone. because of that, many of the licenced (bought) apps dont work right. So I went back to twrp, flashed the gapps (pico) --> wipe cache/dalvik --> boot into system and sigend into my google account. many apps still not work properly, so i restored a few of them with titanium backup (app and data). after titanium it seems that the apps are working again. of course I could restore all apps with titanium backup, but i wonder wether i am the only person who looses the gapps when updating lineagos.
i cannot believe that i have to flash the gapps with every single lineagos update and i have not read anything about this here or elsewehere.
sorry for writing so detailed, but i hope this will help you to help me finding out what is going wrong.
thank you so much.,

Ok so here is my situation. I was running RootBox and decided to restore my backup of JediX. After running JediX for a bit I missed RootBox so I decided to go back and as I was restoring my back-up of RootBox TWRP said that the restore failed. So I tried booting back into the OS only to be stuck in a bootloop. So I wiped system, data, cache and dalvik and did a clean flash of RootBox and Gapps. Much to my surprise when it booted up all my apps that I had on my RootBox Nandroid were there but the system configurations were gone. Confused about my apps still being here because I know I wiped data I decided to go to the playstore and realised that even tho the play store app is there I actually do not have any Google services for example I can not even add my google account. So I thought that the RootBox nandroid must have messed something up I decided to tried restoring the previous JediX nandroid that worked ealier and yet again I was confronted by a Restore Failed message. And no matter how many times I wipe and flash I can not get any google services to stick and nor can I get a clean wipe of my device.
So after that long rant has this happened to anyone or does anyone know of any solution?
Update: Ok so Flashing TWRP 2.4.4 via Odin allowed me to flash rootbox and gapps and have the google services working properly (so far...) but still even after doing a factory reset and a fresh install once i booted up all my apps were already installed all 150+ of them... When I get back from work tomorrow I will back up everything on my PC and attempt a full wipe including internal storage
Hi Guys,
Total Newb, can't flash new 5.1 OTA over the Alpha release. It won't flash on TWRP even the latest version now doing a bit of reading I apparently have to delete my data, cache and dalvik, so my question is there a way to update without losing all my apps and settings??
Thanks in advance!
As mentioned in the announcement by the legacy team, you have to wipe data.
Use titanium backup, backup all your user data, wipe, update, restore MISSING user apps+data in titanium backup
#stayparanoid
Thanks for the response, as someone who has never backed up my apps and data am I OK to restore data backed up on one ROM back onto another different ROM??
I can say that this worked however as a warning for other users my gapps version which I restored was not the correct version for the new ROM so it forced closed all the time, flagging the new gapps version made it worse, thankfully only a clear cache and data was needed along with closing and restarting the download manager hope this helps someone.

Don't restore gapps.
Use the gapps zip package and install whatever gapps you need from the play store. You can never carry over settings from gapps anyway, well reliably anyway
Thanks for replying, wish I'd known earlier would have saved me some turmoil.
My Issue:
No Simcard is found and the Wifi setting wont even show up any Wifi, only the loading bar. When i wait a few minutes my OP3 reboots and the rest works untill in reboots again after a few minutes.
My Story:
Yesterday i updated to 3.2.6 with magisk, phh systemless root and systemless xposed and everything went fine.
Today i did a backup (all partitions) and did a full wipe (except storage) and then flashed Resurrection Remix. I cant tell if the issue was already occuring at this time but i did a full wipe (except the internal storage partition, everything) again and recovered my backup. Definitely since then i am nolonger able to use my phone. I tried wiping everything (now even with storage) and flashing pure stock OOS (3.2.6) but nothing changed.
I am very desperate and dont know whats going on and how to fix it. Thanks to everyone who can help.
when you say you did a backup, exactly which partitions did you backup?
when you say full wipe, exactly which partitions did you wipe?
when you say then flashed OOS, exactly which version did you flash? And have you ever flashed the OOS CB 3.5.2?
Thanks for your fast answere i hope you can save my ass.
I went to Advanced wipe and selected everything except internal storage at the first time and the second time when i tried to clean flash oxygen os i wiped everything you can find there to be sure.
My Backup and the Clean Oxygen OS zip are both 3.2.6
In my Backup every partition is backed up except Cache.
No i never installed any CB.
Additional info: it was the unofficial [OxygenCam] Ressurection Remix and i did not flash Gapps over RR.
regardless of what you did, a clean flash should work if you're wiping /system + /data and then flashing a TWRP flashable version of OOS (since it includes gapps)
regarding RR, it probably requires gapps, but i could be wrong as i haven't used it (i know gapps were needed for sultan's CM which I used, for example)

Yes but my problem is that i wiped data and system a second time and tried flashing the clean 3.2.6 and after that in the first boot setup guide kinda thing it begins with my issue of no sim wifand random reboot, i my try with 3.2.4 now (sounds more stable)
Is there a downloadlink for full rom 3.2.4 at the op homepage?
I clean flashed oos 3.2.4 like you said but still the same error...
It seems like my efs is broken, i have no imei number anymore
i have a oneplus 3 phone and have a very very strange problem updating linegaos. i already wrote in the oneplus3 section, but got no answer, so i hope this is the right place to ask.

Hi guys,
How do I properly update Lineage OS nightly updates or any other ROM for that matter. The update through the "About Phone" doesn't seem to work. It gets to about 70% then tells me the download failed. I tried many times. I did some research around the forums and everyone seems to say do it manually by downloading the ROM and flashing it via TWRP overtop. So I did that but when it rebooted it lost all my user and app data and I had to reapply all my settings manually.
I also did a twrp backup before I did the previous install. I tried to do a restore and same thing. It seemed to have lost all my app data and user data. Had to redo everything manually so instead i just installed the latest nightly and redid everything manually. Did I misunderstand how to update the ROM?
Thanks!

Just download the full rom and follow the procedure.
1. Take a backup of System, Data and Boot.
2. Wipe System
3. Flash in this order: ROM > Gapps (Yes you do need to do this)> Custom kernel (optional) > SuperSU/Magisk (optional) > any other mods.
4. Now wipe Cache and Dalvik and reboot!
5. First boot might take a while. If it loops just try it again or restore the backup and create a new topic!
Ah thank you! I was selecting the wrong options. This worked
