Installation 3.2.0 -> 3.2.1 Failed? Need help ASAP

So I am trying to install the latest 3.2.1 Update but everytime I get installation failed? I used to have root and custom emojis on the phone but I wiped the phone with TWRP by booting it, flashed stock rom and the 3.2.0 update. I then realised I had no recovery at all so I flashed the stock recovery with adb but even tho I have stock rom with no root or anything and stock recovery I still get installation failed? Could it be that I have my bootloader unlocked but still stock everything else that makes it so its not working or what? really need help with this as I wanna be able to install with OTA.

Did you try "adb sideload" in stock recovery?

I had the same problem when updating 3.2.1 to 3.2.2....I was on stock no root bootloader locked too...I downloaded the ota 7 times and failed....then I downloaded 3.2.2 full rom,unlocked bootloader,flash twrp and then flashed the full romm using twrp...and it was a success....but I really don't what was causing the problem....can anyone explain why the ota update install failed?because i really wanna update the phone using ota not by flashing everytime....can anyone help?

I just sideloaded the whole rom and it worked ? no bother unlocking the bootloader.

Cannot flash roms with TWRP

Hello,
I got a used G3 for my gf. I installed the latest LG marshmallow rom with LG flash tool.
After that I rooted and installed TWRP 3.0.2-0. Within TWRP I erased data and wiped everything.
Now when I try to install a rom (tried 3-4 different ones) I get this error:
"set_metadata_recursive some changes failed".
How should I proceed?
Great many thanks!

Just a quick question to understand what you've done:
If you installed "the" latest marshmallow rom with the flash tool, then how did you root and install TWRP? You can't root Marshmallow properly; That needs to be done from 10B.

Maybe I used the wrong terms. I flash "Europe D85530B_00_1217.kdz" with the flash tool. Afterwards the phone was on 6.0. Then rooted with Kingroot (if I remember correctly).

Updating from OxygenOS 3.2.2

Hello XDA, I am running rooted Oxygen OS 3.2.2 with unlocked bootloader on my OnePlus 3 and TWRP version 3.0.2-0 and I want to update to the newest Oxygen OS (I think 4.1.6) How should I proceed? Can I just dirty flash it over it? I am kinda scared because I have read somewhere that some versions of TWRP cause issues. Thanks in advance.

Just flash it on top of whichever rom you are. You'll be good, but keep în mind that flashing stock 4.1.6 will restore stock recovery.
To preventiv this, flash stock 4.1.6 the flash the latest recovery before rebooting. I personally bluspark's twrp. Cheers

Advice Needed Please.

Hi all, I have an honor 7x (obviously) BND-L21 running EMUI 5.1 and Android Nougat. I have used a guide (which i am sure was from here) to unlock my bootloader and root the phone using twrp a while ago.
I have now noticed there is an OTA update to EMUI 8 and Android Oreo.
My questions are these...
I have downloaded the OTA update and tried to install it only to be taken every time to TWRP. After reading up on this i can see this is obvious but none the less i cant update my phone via this method.
I have copied the files downloaded from the update, (namely update_data_full_public.zip, update_full_BND-L21c_hw_eu.zip and update.zip) to my SD card.
So... 1) can i just flash the above zips using twrp and then reroot again with twrp and be on the latest firmware.
2) if not this method then do i have to remove twrp and then update to then put twrp back on again and root etc.
3) if anyone knows what i should be doing to update without bricking my phone then i apologise but i havent seen the correct thread on this. (seen many indian variants or others i'm not sure are applicable to my device)
Thanks for anything you guys can help with..

You need stock recovery for emui update. Flash stock recovery update. Then flash twrp of you need to root

download multi tool 8 for honor 7x
connect it
go to recovery section
install stock recovery
then u can install oreo update

Unlocked bootloader ...it will erase your storage completely ....as there is a encryption error which they have not yet resolved...
so any way you need to backup ur datas... then use the latest TWRP 3.3 or flash the stock recovery which you can download from oneplus support ....
then install the full rom it will be updated ...
