Problems Flashing ROMs/Phone to PC Issues - OnePlus 5T Questions & Answers

Hi guys,
I rooted my OP5T a while ago and after playing around with a few ROMs I decided that i wanted to unroot it. I was using a guide to unroot it and whilst cleaning out the dalvik/cache etc, i accidently deleted all the other ROMs i had saved on the phone. As i have no ROMs, and as i performed a factory reset previously, i have no OS installed on the phone.
I have tried downloading and moving stock ROMs and other ROMs on to the phone, but now my PC is having issues recognising the phone. Some times, it it recognised but it will not let me move files on to the internal SD. Other times, the computer does not even recognise the internal SD.
Does anyone have any ideas what i should do? Im no genius when it comes to rooting, maybe theres something im doing wrong?
Any ideas greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
JamesWebb97

Hi. I had the same problem. You should install the rom you want to use on a USB driver ( pen drive / USB stick ). Then plug it in to your phone. Then you need to go into recovery and select use otg storage and flash from the usb. I solved it like that: I flashed the official rom of oneplus and the stock recovery. And I had a problem with setting the device for (like) the first time ( like email and all this ) so you need to go into the stock recovery and delete everything like data cache and everything. Then reboot and it should work.
BTW if you have any problem just send me a message through xda app ( this app )
Hope I helped you?

No ADB/USB whatsoever. Unrecoverable?

Hey guys, I've got a really weird issue here. After performing a factory reset with Odin to get back to stock (latest update), I all of a sudden lost any SIM functionality and USB functionality while in Android. I cannot transfer files, I cannot use ADB, it only charges, and my SIM is undetectable rendering the phone just a wifi android device. It does this with TMobile official and the international ROM for the T889. I was attempting to install CM10.1, but apparently the recovery on the Root Sticky is too outdated and CM10 errors out on install, and ROM Manager is unable to download any ROMs or update CWM. Really, really kind of stuck here, and I don't even know what's causing this. I've factory reset about a million times now or tried backups/different ROMs. Oh also, apparently my internal SD card is gone now too.
Anyone ever had some kind of issue like this? Not being able to ADB at all when CWM and Odin work perfectly is driving me insaaaneee!
EDIT/TLDR:
Internal storage /storage/sdcard, usb connections inside android, and the SIM simply do not exist to the device, and CWM cannot format/mount sdcard. Oddly, apps can download and run w/o the extsdcard, but downloading things from chrome will crash it. Still no ideas of how to fix.

[Q] Trouble with installing Gummy ROM, phone not recognized

I'm hoping someone here can help me with the issues I've been having installing this ROM. At first I didn't root it right and after installing the OPPO drivers it seems it won't recognize my phone. I've pasted the ROM onto my SD card but it refuses to show up in recovery to be installed. I've tried pushing the ROM and the phone can't be recognized. I uninstalled the OPPO drivers, ran CCleaner, and restarted, then did a full wipe with TWDP but still no dice. And BTW since I have no idea wtf I'm doing, I did a full wipe and now apparently I wiped the entire OS. So now I have a phone with no OS, and it's impossible to install a ROM. What do?
That is a scary moment. I recommend downloading the Google ADB drivers and overwriting the current Oppo drivers on your computer. I had to do this while in fastboot mode. This may not be the best method but it is the method that worked for me. I'm on mobile right now so no links. If you are still in trouble later I'll try to get links/a better step by step but I can't make a guarantee I'll have time.

Try pasting Rom in internal storage if you tried sd card earlier. Strange that you can't find it in TWRP. A bit late now, but you should always back up before wipe.

[Q] Bricked Phone...Peculiar Situation

Hey guys,
First off, I've searched far and wide for any help with my problem but it is such a peculiar situation that I have yet to find someone with a similar situation. I expect if I want to ever use my M8 again, I'll need to send it to HTC and pay a few hundred bucks to fix it. But maybe someone here will have an idea that I've missed.
Shortly after getting my M8, I unlocked my device, rooted it and installed a few roms. Everything was fine save for one major thing: no matter which PC I used (and I used MANY - 3 different windows destops, a windows desktop at the office and my Macbook Pro) the device was never able to mount and make the storage accessible. I knew at that point something at some point had gone wrong. I've long preferred to use a wireless file transfer app to send stuff to and from my phone so I wouldn't have to break out all my cables so I figured it wouldn't be a big deal. I'd make it work.
A few days ago, I decided to try a different rom than what I'd been using for months (HD Revolution - great rom!) and downloaded everything required. I booted to TWRP, wiped the usual stuff and flashed my rom. When I rebooted, I was continually met with a crash as soon as the phone started and was never able to get into the OS. No big deal - this has happened before with other devices, so I didn't sweat it. I simply powered down the phone and tried to get back to recovery. Here's where the problem really kicked in : when attempting to boot to recovery, my phone will bring up the Hboot screen but instantly try to select the first option, thus not allowing me to scroll down to "Recovery". No matter what I do, it brings up the white Hboot screen, automatically selects the first option, gives me some error (I'm at work so I don't have the device in front of me) and tries to boot to the OS. That takes us back to the automatic crash.
Now, I know usually the solution would involve USB and ADB, but like I mentioned at the start of my sad tale, connecting my phone to PC's results either in nothing (Mac) or a "the device has failed" message in Windows. I've tried removing all the phone drivers, reinstalling and using a few toolkit methods - the phone is just never ever detected.
So, that's it. I'm pretty much resigned to sending my phone in and the HTC folks quoted me about $200. I do have a functional phone at the moment so it isn't the worst situation in the world, but if I could fix this I'd be able to using it as my main device again or sell it for a good chunk of change - I just bought it in June.
Sorry for the long read!
As far as the storage issue, never seen that happen before so I'm not sure. When you plug it in to the computer does the phone ask if you want to connect it as a storage device etc?
The bootloader is a very peculiar problem. It almost sounds like you have an img file that its trying to read as soon as you boot into boot loader.
Try to install HTC sync. And make sure the computer has an internet connection when you plug it in via usb.
Try to flash stock recovery fw buddy
Maybe thats problem RUU
Cek mike blg to find all stock recovery fw
After that install custom recovery again
This sounds a little familiar.
In my experience I've found some firmware versions and ROMs very choppy.
I once had a problem with storage too, couldn't send anything over to my phone.
Fortunately I could access recovery, so used ADB sideload and installed another ROM. And went to another firmware and never looked back.
The last 401.6 firmware gave me all sorts of issue.
If you can access fastboot I'd also recommend new firmware 401.7 is working flawlessly for me with ARHD 21.

I would try putting one of the bootable ruus on your SD card so when it goes to your hboot, it'll read the RUU and install it
Awesome, some interesting suggestions here. Would I be able to somehow update the firmware via an SD card without any input from a computer? I managed to get into Recovery last night somehow (maybe letting the battery totally drain and charging it for a while did something) but plugging in my phone when in recovery still won't mount the storage or be recognized by ADB. Would I somehow be able update my firmware from recovery without the need of ADB'ing from my desktop? I've been looking at ROM threads and stuff and noticed that almost every rom requires new firmware or WiFI/radios other stuff won't work....
I'm at work right now so I'll definitely research this in depth when I get home, but if you guys could guide me in the right direction, I'd really appreciate it and maybe buy ya' a beer.

Download a rom that can use the 2.xx firmware. Look around and you should be able to find the roms. There's still plenty out there. Here's a little suggestion, reflash TWRP (or other recovery) through fastboot than grab a SD card and place the rom into the SD card and install the rom using through the use of a SD card. Just remember to do a full wipe before that

[Q] Accidentally deleted a system font, need help to get my phone working again

So yesterday I was using the Font Installer app on my HTC One M8 (AT&T) and I was trying to delete a font I downloaded. But on accident, I deleted the Clockopia font and Robotto font (two system necessary fonts). So I thought it would be fine, but it wouldn't let me do anything on my phone so I reboooted it. It now will only start in recovery (TWRP) and bootloader. If I try to boot the system, it says I have no OS, and I get stuck on the boot screen. I have wiped the data, and tried everything I could think of. I can't find a way to fix this problem and the phone is not going to work unless I get something done. I am going to the store to buy a MicroSD card for the phone, in case that is a way to help. Please, any help would be appreciated! I am generally new to the rooting world, so this was a dumb mistake, but please help if you can. I have found threads similar to this but none helped because this phone is different so certain ways to fix this won't work. Again, please help if you can!
What ROM are you using? You can try dirty flashing that ROM again. If you're in ATT stock, just download the ruu and run that. It's going to wipe everything on your internal storage, so copy the things you want to a microsd card before you do
The problem is that I already wiped everything, but it says I have no OS anymore. Like I said, I am no pro with this stuff so I basically just have a phone sitting in recovery. I am currently trying to use ADB to load a file to the device but its a whole ROM (hoping that will help put the fonts back where they were) so I can flash it when it's on the phone. When I slide to start the adb sideload, it disconnects and won't pop up in the Device Monitor, but as soon as I stop the sideload I can see all of the files in my computer. So I'm not sure what I can do with this. Thank you for the reply, but I was on Android Revolution HD before I accidentally deleted the font. Now I'm trying to download it again!

Put the ROM onto your extSD, and flash it in recovery. Your phone will work again.
Hey guys thanks again for the help, I fixed it all with the flashing of a ROM again and I'm now posting this with my phone! You guys helped really quick, I appreciate it!

My first thread on XDA - Samsung Tab 3.7.0 lite (SM-T110) System restoring

Hello Everybody
I hope you can help me with my first Androidproblem.
I installed rootprivileg on my Tab by flashing Custom-Rom with Odin etc.
Everything was working fine after that. Super-SU was working and i was root and was able to change CPU-Settings and everything else. Now my problem. Since i am a Technerd and always want to learn more, i wanted to restore the system to default to have a clean device. I made a backup with Kies which worked fine (Windows 10). Then i went to the Settings menu on my tab and choose the reset option. Than the screen went black. Since then Android is only booting into CWM-Mode and the Tablet is not recognized anymore by Kies when i connect it via USB-Cable. It is recognized as a USB-Device by Windows but i cant restore the backup on the tablet.
When i press the powerbutton the tab always reboots in CWM-Recovery v. 6.0.4.8.
What can i do to solve the problem? Thank you very much for your help.
I really need it.

Read the last post of the CWM thread.

Could you please sent me a link to the CWM-Thread, so that i know with thread you mean? That would be very friendly.
I think i got the idea for solving the problem, but after reading for 8 hours on xda i feel like i am blind. So many different roms....so many ways to handle it. I am confused.
I would like to install the Una T111-Rom which also seems to work with the T110 Tab. But there is a big problem: Since i dont have access to my sd-card anymore i cant copy the rom in the backup-folder on the sd. I could take the sd-card out of the tab if i would find the adapter to the bigger format SD-Card, then i could put the card in my notebook and copy the file in the right directory. Maybe it would work then and i have a nice safe googlefree Tab.
Thank you very much for your kindness
Maybe using Adb is an option?:fingers-crossed::
I hope i have a solution now. I will try to install the Criskelo-Rom (although i am not a big fan of the dark colors in there) with Odin. I hope it works....because its starting to get intense....for a newbie like me.
Hello everybody
After having a constant bootloop in the CWM-Recovery i now managed to flash TWRP v.2.7.0.1 and it works. At least i boot into TWRP instead of CWM now. Its the TWRP-Version of SELinux and i cant access the kernels content, it says. What would be the next step? I can access my data on the (wiped) sd and main partition now but i still dont have the possibility to install the rom i would like (Criskelo or Stock NE4lite for T110) because i cant get it on the sdcard. I would really like to get back in the Androidbootup of my Tab...
Please help me out. I really need your experience with this. It took me 24 hours and a lot of reading, downloading etc to get to this point.
Thank you very much.
Very beautiful TWRP-Interface bye the way. Very impressive.
It says: Kernel does not have support for reading SELinux contents.
Hello guys
Keeping you up to date. I am smarter now...
I flashed the device with this custom-rom: T110UEUANE4. I transferred this file to my sdcard using ADB and then installed the Rom. Worked perfect.
Great Tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTGIAzofZCM
After rebooting i was hoping it would boot into Android, but it didnt. It booted into the TWRP and the screen flickered.
So i flashed again with this one: Philz Touch Advanced CWM recovery
Here i had the problem that ADB didnt work, so i flashed back the TWRP 2.7.0.1
I would like to know why i cant boot into Android after i installed the Custom-Rom for T110.
Any help and suggestions are deeply appreciated cause i am learning fast but i am still learning.
Bye the way: Now i understand how you can get addicted to flashing. But it would be nice to be able to boot in the system again...
Many thanks for your help.

You need to install stock recovery. Then reboot. The first reboot will boot into recovery, then you should be able to boot into rom.

Hello Everybody
I flashed my Tab successfully now with the custom-rom from mknrls. Many thanks for your work and your passion.:good:
Also i want to thank gr8nole for the keyword: Stock Recovery. Thanks for your files and your help.
The Tab is running well, except for the issue with the contacts - which is not such a big deal cause i use my Nokia N9 as a phone...not only as a phone... After flashing, it took me several days to "recover" myself from the loss of sleep.
I flashed the Tab 4 days ago.
My next Custom-Androidrom will probably be on my beloved N9.:good:
Maybe i will try to install UNA-OS on my Tab...i think i am becoming flash-addicted.
