[SIZE="5"]https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=71007646&postcount=6[/SIZE]
Long time silent reader here. I always find solutions for my problems in xda-devs, until now.
Hope you guys can help me once again..
So, yesterday I messed up my OP3 and wiped all partitions on my phone.
I've tried many steps, trying to flash a flashable stock rom (the one with boot.img and system img) in fastboot, result= installation succeed, but getting blackscreen on boot.
Installing full OOS rom from adb sideload using stock recovery, result= failed (* cannot read 'OnePlus3Oxygen_16_OTA_039_all_1701140133_03b794d8a8b44883.zip' *)
Installing full OOS rom from adb sideload using TWRP recovery, result= failed (* cannot read 'OnePlus3Oxygen_16_OTA_039_all_1701140133_03b794d8a8b44883.zip' *)
Copy the rom to my phone, and installing the zip with TWRP, result failed (error=7)
So far these are my references:

So twrp is working right?
Flash any rom say lineage os
Flash multirom by BitOBSessiOn
Flash multirom twrp
Flash oos as secondary rom
And then swap oos to primary rom
try with some other TWRP . May be v16 blu_spark
https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/?id=15934#downloads
Ye sideboard gives me issues aswell, push the zip and manually flash it In twrp: "adb push romzipname /sdcard/", the file is now ib the folder /sdcard/.

Still waiting on boot screen tho (15 mins & counting, hope it won't be bootloop)

Then it's a twrp issue. I'm currently in Bluspark v16 so
Error 7 in TWRP AFAIK is an issue with using an incompatible recovery, try the latest one 3.0.4-1 I think it is from this forum.

I flash twrp bluspark as @Puddi_Puddin suggested and flashing Freedom OS. After that, I restore my data using my last Nandroid backup, then the bootloop comes again. Tried it several times using TWRP Bluspark with different ROMs, still no luck. So I suggest, there's nothing I can do to restoring my phone's data.
I read across the XDA forums and Oneplus forums that some people had similar issues for me, and they suspected something's wrong about corrupted partition, not because twrp version. And I also had tried flashing a few ROM in the past using the same TWRP 3.03 version without any problems. Strange.
Anyway, problems solved, my phone's up and running.
CASE CLOSED.
Thanks XDA

Better than not starting at all, at least.
First off I am a seasoned novice in the android flashing/ rooting scene, not know but asking for help by swallowing my pride. I've had the device for two days now and I enjoy the device but would love to try these custom ROMs out. I have installed TWRP multiple times and the TWRP A/B partition flasher, installed Magisk and had a working stock rooted with Elemental X running. No matter how many times I flash a ROM it never seems to boot past the custom ROM's boot sequence, I even tried the manual reboot fix and no dice.
I ask for help for myself and future noobs to this A/B partitioned device.
Thanks in advance
this will help you mate

Thanks, I have been using this and used it as I was wring the article, I'm just trying to see how we flash the ROMs on this puppy.
i use to do these steps
wipe caches
install rom
install twrp.zip for taimen
reboot
setup phone
if you want root then reboot on recovery again then install magisk.
I do these steps and have no failure when flashing; after I wipe the Caches, I flash the ROM and then the TWRP partition flasher and reboot the system. I've waited 15 minutes to have the device boot with no luck and I don't want to risk any longer due to the Pixel 2/ XL having burn-in issues.

Probably because there's not a full OS on the slot your flashing to. If you know your fastboot, it's relatively easy going forward. The Dueces scrip it's great tool for sure to help out. If you want to do it manually, fastboot the factory image to both slots with the -w removed from the flash-all.bat file.
Once that's done, go back to fastboot, and boot into twrp. Then do a twrp factory reset with the swipe bar. Flash the rom, then the twrp.zip and let it boot up. Once in the OS, keep lock screen set to swipe, and do a minimal setup. Then go back to twrp and flash your custom kernel(optional) then flash magisk. And that should do it :good:
Will try this out right now, just restored stock, unlocked, rooted and TWRPed it. Will reply with results.

If your on the stock April release, you might want to wait until the Devs have updated their roms to be compatible with the current stock release :good:

Outstanding! Well done :good::good:
Hi all, got TWRP installed OK on my Pixel 2 XL, hit reboot and then it goes straight back into TWRP, but with no Touch. So, thought I could flash a new kernel (Flash?) but... no ADB! I guess the phone hasn't probably booted so ADB can't see the phone.
Any options at this point?!

If your phone boots back to bootloader on reboot, you did something wrong. Reflash system imgs and start over.
Thanks! Is that a matter of following the guides on the official google download page and getting the factory images?

Yes. If you don't want your data wiped, open the install.bat file and take off the -w.
Did you unlock your bootloader correctly? Unlock critical? I believe the pixel 2 xl is the only phone where that has to be done.
Boot into bootloader and fastboot flash recovery.img again, once your in recovery, flash the recovery.zip from your storage again, then reboot recovery.... its happened to me, usually when I switch slots, all I have to do is reflash recovery.
Also note, If I am trying to boot at that point (rather than flash a ROM), I usually just flash the kernel and magisk and I'm good to go.
Thanks all! I flashed the patched boot.img again and it seems to be working OK
OK, this whole thing is confusing me now! I get TWRP installed then I have to re-flash my boot.img before I quit TWRP (a magisk patched version of Flash) or the phone keeps booting to TWRP. Thats fine, but when I've flashed the boot.img I loose TWRP!

Yes you do loose twrp after flashing the boot.img. the reason being that stock recovery resides in the boot.img. So when you flash it, bye..bye twrp! Why not just fastboot twrp, then once in twrp, flash the twrp installer zip, then flash your custom kernel(if used) then flash the magisk zip for root. :good:
Ok! So this is where I'm confused. The Flash Kernel is called boot.img? So I'm flashing it in twrp with the boot option?

No. Flash kernel is just the kernel, the boot.img is from the factory image. Flash the zip version of Flash kernel in twrp, then flash magisk.zip :good:
Ok. So here a shot of my confusion! The file I got from Flash is this one, flashkernel-taimen.v.2.30-boot.img. The three choices I'm being given by TWRP is boot, system or vendor?

Download the 14mb FlashKernel-Taimen-v2.30.zip instead and put it in your phone to flash from within TWRP, followed by the magisk zip

There is no solution for that. Xposed always fails SafetyNet.
Is Xposed worth having these days? Are people still actively developing useful mods?

I think it's worth it, for the following apps:
I've had so many problems with TWRP on this phone that I don't even flash it anymore. If I need to flash a zip file I just fastboot into TWRP and flash it that way. Kind of a pain in the ass but I don't flash many zip files anyway.

No problems with TWRP here. Maybe you are flashing to the wrong slot.

I keep hoping Xposed will go die in a fire. It causes more problems than it solves, to the point ROM developers will tell you not to bother reporting issues with it installed. Rovo knows his stuff, but his creation has caused more damage to custom ROM development than Cyanogenmod did in its last three years.
hi there,
i used crDroidAndroid-8.1-20180606-riva-v4.3 but there were color problems i didnt know 2 fix so i decided 2 flash a new rom resp. a newer version but no custom rom boots up.
when it tries 2 boot is freezes at the boot screen, then screen switches off and nothing happens. i can go 2 fastboot and recovery.
sometimes it boots up but after a few seconds it freezes 2.
i tried different roms and recoveries but nothing works.
i foolishly wiped internal storage once but then i flashed the stock rom again which boots up. then i unlocked the bootloader and flashed a custom recovery and a rom again but the same error is there (no booting up)
anyone got a solution for this problem? no unbricking suggestions plz
edit: im in the wrong thread i think. i wanted 2 post it in "Guides, News, & Discussion". cant delete it. sry for that
logs
so i managed 2 create logs while booting up.
1) https://pastebin.com/cgrX2DA1
2) https://pastebin.com/r7DmcN46
3) https://pastebin.com/0pwXyuys
4) https://pastebin.com/S41FG2SQ
1) is 1st part of the log while booting with no success to boot into the os.
2) is 2nd part of the log while booting with no success to boot into the os.
3) is 1st part of the log while booting with successful boot into the os.
4) is 2nd part of the log while booting with successful boot into the os.
i also tried 2 log "cat /proc/last_kmsg > /sdcard/last_kernel_message_log.txt"
and "dmesg > /sdcard/kernel_boot_log.txt" via terminal in linux but it only sais file or directory not found.
i hope sum1 can give me sum help now.
so i did this https://en.miui.com/thread-3921604-1-1.html but it doesnt help. as i expected.
any1? i can post more information if necessary. just say which and perhaps how ;D
cmon guys. i can impossibly b the only 1 who faces this problem.
i dont think its a hardware thing cause stock rom and android 7.1.2 (viper os) work. maybe a vendor problem? could flash another vendor img solve this problem? can sum1 send me his?
i got sum more logs after flashing rr 7.0:

Fastboot flash latest miui 10 stable using mi flash tool and use the rom after setting up. Then flash custom recovery and do a full wipe.
This works for most cases.

Which custom rom you want to use?

Crdroid is my choice because aex and rr are very early builds. I like pixel experience but the devs not updating it so crdroid or havoc os.
Like i said use Xiaomi flash tool and flash miui 10 stable via fastboot method(there are 3 options in the bottom select flash all instead of flash and lock to avoid unlocking the bootloader again), don't flash anything else, setup and use the phone, flash recovery wipe all and format, install rom, don't flash gapps yet, boot into rom and see if its fixed.
Use vendor based recovery, if using batik recovery you have to flash batik recovery again after format.
This is my solution.

i did it several times before but 2 b safe i did it again like that:
i flashed riva_global_images_V10.1.1.0.NCKMIFI_20181029.0000.00_7.1_global_f444c158ed.tgz using XIAOMI-TOOL-MiFlash-for-Linux-by-IceMan-master. im on linux mint 18.3. i have 4 options:
flash_all_lock.sh
flash_all_lock_crc.sh
flash_all_except_data_storage.sh
flash_all.sh
i chose flash_all.sh
i booted into the stock rom and set it up, enabled dev options and adb.
then i switched it off, went into bootloader, flashed twrp-3.2.3-0-riva.img via fastboot.
after that i entered twrp, flashed OrangeFox-R8.3-riva.zip and rebooted into recovery
i wiped everything except external sd and usb otg (i dont have these)
after a reboot intorecovery i formatted data then rebooted in recovery
i flahed crDroidAndroid-9.0-20181002-riva-v5.0.zip
then reboot into system
no success as i expected! wtf is wrong wtf. this cant b true!
but thank u very much for ur efforts! perhaps i would try 2 restore a vendor img from sum1 which rom does work. i know its a great demand but could u send me urs? ;D i dont know if there r sum personal info..
best regards
Don't give up there might be a solution.
Pray to God for some help.

Currently I am using Xiaomi.eu beta rom. You can check their website for all the features. Its smooth, stable and can update without needing to got the recovery:victory:
This should work for you because unlike other roms this is based on miui for riva. That means you will get updates till Xiaomi ditches support for riva.
I recommend you use this rom over the global rom until you fix the problem with your phone.
Some things missing:
Choice of region is limited( India is not available)
There is no custom kernel available for miui oreo as of now.
Magisk safetynet not passed
If you're going flash this rom you need to be on latest global beta fastboot rom and need a recovery that supports oreo base.
I use batik recovery base oreo.

dont u have 2 wait 2 weeks or so till bootloader is unlocked?
what exactly do u mean with won't boot up? bootloop? or stuck at boot logo?
after flashing a custom recovery, did u boot directly into the system or did u try 2 boot into recovery? sometimes the stock recovery overwrites the custom 1 when stock rom boots up
my problem is solved. i remembered that i made a full nandroid backup with twrp before i flashed a new rom and the problem appeared. so i restored everything i backed up with twrp (incl cust) and voila, rom booted up. and i can wipe system and data and flash every rom i wanna and it still boots up \o/
i really could have tried it earlier but i didnt think of this untill yesterday ;D
well, thx for ur efforts anyway buddy @NaAnBcEhEuL9A8K7

Hi guys, I rooted my redmi note 8 yesterday. Everything went well except two things: on boot the error message said that "there is an internal problem" and the phone reboots/shuts down itself.
Any thoughts?

You should explain the problem obviously if you want a help, if your phone still working you should flash twerp.img to be able to root it and solve any existing problem by flashing new rom

Hey thanks for answer.
Actually i did everything correctly, flashed latest twrp, tried several roms, oficial, unoficial etc., But still no result. After all these, ive flashed the stock rom which solved the problem but phone is no more rooted. So..

If you still want to root it again,after flasing new rom go to twero and then go to wipe then format,you should format your phone after rom flashing,try this and inform me
Yes yes! I want to root phone once again. So the steps are these:
1) booting into twrp with adb from pc.
2) from the twrp menu wiping and formating the data
3) instaling new rom
Is this true?
Thanks!
If you want to root you don't have to install another custom rom unless you don't like the stock rom. If you like your current stock rom, then flash twrp in fastboot and download the latest magisk stable zip and also diasble dm-verity zip. Using twrp first flash disable dm-verity zip and then magisk zip, wipe dalvik cache and reboot to system, hopefully you would have root permission.

Hey, I was able to flash magical using twrp but can't flash dm-verity. It gives me some error 1 with no description. I could flash magisk. What can the problem be? Thanks!

From your stock rom extract the boot.img and place it on your SD card. Flash the boot image using twrp or you can also flash in fastboot, then reboot. Now boot to twrp recovery and flash dm-verity first and then magisk zip. Worked for me I'm having root permission with stock rom.

i could grant the root permission on stock rom before you wrote this. thank you very much! but i still have a problem with a custom rom as it randomly turns off or reboots the device. strange

UPDATE: after another custom rom install failure, i got back to stock miui 11 with miflash tool. the problem is now that when i unlock the bootloader and try to flash magisk and disable-dm-verity, the system refuses to boot. the redmi note 8 logo is sticked on boot. i dont understand what i am doing incorrectly. if there are any suggestions im ready to try.

Is your bootloader unlocked right now or did you lock it while flashing using miflash tool.

the bootloader was unlocked. everything went kinda fine, until i flashed youtube vanced from magisk: when i did that, the system was unable to boot. i don't know what's happening. is there anything to do with kernel or something? really interesting what i am doing wrong.

I think it may be because of YouTube vanced module. If you remove the module you might be able to boot. In twrp in the advanced option select file manager and then select data/adb/magisk/ in that you will find the list of installed modules, select the one which is causing the problem and delete that folder and try to reboot.

I've already flashed the stock rom but this will help me next time! Thanks!
I'll stop trying for some days cause I'm really tired with tweaking so thanks and will get back!

Your device reboots randomly on custom rom because probably it was made for tianma display and you have hauxing display

Hey, thanks for the answer. i've just googled about it and you are right. checked the TP version and it says that i have huaxing display. in the Lineage OS thread the moderator wrote that the next update will fix that bug. hopefully ill be able to install custom rom. also if you know, are there any custom roms for huaxing display? thank you man!

i've tried Lineage OS too and it also has reboot issue. i've checked a thread here https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-5-pro/development/derp-kernel-clang-4-4-138-t3804996 that flashing a different kernel when you have flashed a custom rom can fix the problem. idk if its safe to do

that thread is for redmi note 5 pro..and flashing different kernel probably won't solve it because I know few guys flashed genom kernel but still ended up with reboot in huaxing display. Maybe waiting for fix is better.
