So my OP3 got bricked and I used @Naman Bhalla guide to unbrick my phone using the second method which flashes an old OOS after unbrick. I was successful in unbricking my phone, however once the phone restarts after the unbrick tool it gets stuck in the OOS boot animation (The rotating O animation) and then it reboots and this continues.
I've tried,
1) Sideloading another Stock ROM (OOS 5.0.1.) via stock recovery: Just rebricks my phone
2) Flashing TWRP 3.1.0-0 and tried to install zip for 5.0.1 : TWRP does't recognize phone, (ERROR 7, This ROM is for OnePlus 3, This device is " ") and thus it doesn't flash.
3) Tried upgrading TWRP to 3.2.1. : could'nt do it - Lost recovery, phone just restarts to a black screen with white notification light.
4) Tried flashing OOS 4.5.1 (Nougat) via TWRP 3.1.: Does't boot up. Doesn't even go to the animation and restarts after OnePlus Logo.
Yes, I was stupid enough to not have done a nandroid backup. Desperately need help.

Gave this a shot. Not booting up again. Goes to blank screen with white notification light.
Update: I've even tried rooting phone and flashing custom rom: Doesn't even go to animation
I've also tried method 1, erased the system via fastboot and reflashed the official OOS 3.1.2. zip file via adb sideload. Still the same result on official zip.

If Method 2 doesn't work, Method 1 will definitely not work.
After flashing TWRP, are you able to boot to it (without flashing any ROM)? Flashing OOS or Open Beta will overwrite TWRP. So try this: wipe everything and flash TWRP, boot to TWRP and flash ROM and again TWRP, then flash Magisk and boot to system.
When you get white LED, hold power button for 7 to 10 seconds, it will switch off. Then press power button again and you will boot to the options menu to choose bootloader, recovery etc. You may not have to use Method 2 every time if this works for you.

Hey thanks for the help. Will give this a shot now. Can you tell me what method I should use to flash magisk?
Also, I am able to access TWRP but when flashing a rom via TWRP it gives me error 7 i.e. can't install this since because it is for OnePlus 3 this device is " ". Also, with method 2 I already have a stock rom installed, I've tried wiping system via fastboot and sideloading another ROM too, that doesn't work.

Magisk to be flashed through TWRP.
If you know how, remove this first line from the updater script and then flash it: getprop("ro.build.product") == "OnePlus3" || abort("This package is for "OnePlus3" devices; this is a "" + getprop("ro.build.product") + ""."); This is what is preventing TWRP from flashing the ROM. Removing this line will result in no checks for device type while flashing the ROM.

Hi, already did that, still is't flashing.
Lastly, I managed to lock my bootloader now somehow by running the 3.0.8 version of the MSMTool. Now I have no working OS, A locked bootloader and no way to flash TWRP. I should should throw my phone in the garbage now. Shouldnt I? :crying:

NEVER GIVE UP, atleast not so soon. Contact OnePlus and ask them for a remote session, they may be able to restore it.
Though you are not able to flash TWRP, you can boot TWRP by using the adb command "fastboot boot twrp.img" and then play with it. Place the TWRP within the adb folder while trying this. (Replace twrp.img with the name of your TWRP or rename your TWRP as twrp.img)
Either you have encryption issues or you have a hardware issue if you are not able to flash anything successfully.
This is the end of my knowledge.

Gives me the error, "Unlock device to use this command"
I am able to flash rom via MSMTool, it even dash charges and all. But I can't boot into the system. It gets stuck in OOS animation while booting. Been at it for 3 days. Can it really be a hardware issue if my bootloader and recovery both are working?
Lastly, do you have any way I could unlock the bootloader without system permissions?
Putting an end to this madness. after 4 days in front of my laptop. Had a remote session with a OnePlus tech support team. Discarding my phone unfortunately. Thinking of shifting to a Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro since I can't afford a OnePlus 5T anymore. Thanks to everyone who helped. This thread can be closed now.

I've got a rooted phone w/ an unlocked bootloader.
I've installed TWRP using ADB.
When I try to get into recovery (by using the physical buttons while booting) nothing happens. When I try to get into recovery via ADB, I get "no devices found"
What am I doing wrong?
Some background:
I flashed KK 4.4 using Flashtool.
Then I successfully installed and accessed TWRP. I tried and failed to install a custom ROM (AICP), but couldn't get it to sideload.
At that point, my device had no OS, so I re-flashed KK4.4, hoping that I could get the ADB sideload to work if I started from the beginning.
But now I'm back at the beginning, and I can't even get into recovery.
When I flash TWRP via fastboot, it successfully writes. But I can't boot into recovery.
Please help!
Disregard. I was able to access TWRP after I flashed the boot.img that came in the original platform tools.
It goes without saying that once I flash that boot.img, I'm unable to get into KK 4.4. I am, however, able to get back to TWRP, where hopefully I'll be able to flash a ROM.
Once again, however, I'm not able to flash AICP. It fails every single time.

You can try to pull boot img from aicp and flash it in two, then try to flash the rom, but not sure. You may have to flash LP first, just use a prf. Also, if you use Emma to update bootloader, (if you didn't already), then you can use real recovery, (twrp 3+), and it should work.

I just finished process myself, just to test, and works fine-
1. Download Emma
2. Download twrp3
3. Download Kingroot
4. Download Rashr
Plug phone into computer in flash mode after starting Emma, and you'll see option to flash newest fw. After flashing, restart and install Kingroot. After rooting, use Rashr to flash twrp3. Then power off, and hold power and volume down to enter recovery.

THANK YOU! I'm not sure what prf or Emma are, but I'll find out on my own.
Is there any way to do this that doesn't involve KingRoot? The whole "sends your info to a Chinese IP" aspect of KingRoot creeps me out.

two ways:
1) after you install the rom using EMMA connect the phone in fastboot mode and flash Advanced Kernel 18.1. it comes with its own twrp recovery. then boot to recovery and flash SuperSU zip.
2) after you install the rom using EMMA connect the phone in fastboot mode and flash TWRP recovery, then boot to recovery and flash SuperSU zip.

Is SuperSU zip secure? Do we know that it's not Chinese malware?
Can't get into recovery -z1c (amami)
I unlocked bootloader, have installed TWRP 3, then LineageOS through TWRP. But now i can't access recovery (twrp).
-Phone powers up
-pink light
-immediately i press volume up (volume down doesn't do anything)
-orange light shows for a second
-phone restarts normally
----------------------
So how can i access twrp recovery mode?

Haven't tried Lineage yet, but with CM, they had their own recovery which had to be overwritten after flash. Boot up, install Rashr, flash TWRP IMG with Rashr, then try again.
Also, real recovery is a good idea, if you don't have it yet. You need to flash stock with Sony Emma tool, then you have ta update, with real recovery capability.

Hello everyone,
This morning, I wanted to recover OxygenOS on my Oneplus3. I'm currently running Cyanogenmod 13.
I used the following guide: "[GUIDE] How to Unroot your OnePlus 3 / 3T and go back completely to stock" (Since I'm a newb, I can't post the link. But Google will get you there)
I booted into fastboot, issued the fastboot flash recovery recovery_op3.img and fastboot oem lock commands from my Linux termina, and rebooted in recovery mode.
In recovery mode, I then erased the cache and all that, selected the "Upgrade android from USB" and issued the adb sideload ota.zip command. This is where my problems began.
After running the command, I got the error "error: protocol fault (no status)". I tried to look this error up, but couldn't find useful information.
I started to panic a bit, fearing that my phone would be bricked. However, after booting back into fastboot mode, unlocking OEM, and rebooting, my phone would boot back into Cyanogenmod 13 (A clean install).
So now I don't have a bricked phone. However, I really would like to go back to OxygenOS, so my question is whether anyone knows how to solve my problem.
Summary:
Running Linux (Debian 8) on my PC;
Running Cyanogenmod13 on my Phone;
Want to recover OxygenOS, but adb sideload gave me "error: protocol fault (no status)";
Tried running the adb sideload command as root, however that did not work;
Can still use the Cyanogenmod13.
I've seen that error once before. I had to disconnect the phone, kill the ADB process, reconnect the phone and restart ADB to get it to work.
That worked for me. Hope that helps.

Hey, thanks for responding.
I forgot to mention that I also tried killing the adb process several times, using the adb kill-server command and by killing the process sending SIGKILL.
Another thing I tried was using another Debian machine, which is my laptop. Still, those things did not solve my issue.
Never relock your boot loader, most bricks are due to relocking.
Flash twrp, flash oxygen os ,boot, enable everything,if you want complete stock, flash stock recovery ,flash oxygen os boot to complete stock os.
Backup youre working rom..
First, you need unlocked bootloader.
1.Flash twrp 3.0.4.1 or twrp-3.1.0 x v.26 blu_spark. Reboot to recovery.
2.Clean flash (wipe data-dalvik-system-cache) Oxygen OS, since you come from a custom rom. Flash SuperSu or Magisk, if you want root. Reflash recovery. Reboot to recovery.
If youre phone does not boot in recovery, press Power till phone vibrates. Press vol. down & choose:
1. Select Bootloader. Flash recovery from PC. Safest way to flash recovery.
or
2.Select recovery. Reflash recovery. Reboot recovery.
After you are sure that you got a working recovery reboot to system.

Since I don't understand everything yet, I will spend this evening looking up everything in detail, before I start giving it another try. Do you perhaps know of a tutorial about this specific situation? I don't want to bother you by questioning everything you stated in your instructions. They seem clear enough to be able to be looked up on Google :laugh:

Thanks for responding.
By the steps after "if you want complete stock", do you mean that I should keep the bootloader unlocked, and then perform the same steps as in the tutorial that I used?
EDIT:
@ null0seven: I found these steps online as I was looking up some things you said (I don't have much time since I will celebrate eastern with my family today)
Rooted Users or users with ROMs other than OxygenOS having new bootloader (Official CM 13,CM 13 Based ROMs dated later than 04 June 2016,H2OS Marshmallow)
Step 1 :- Download the OxygenOS 3.0.2 full zip from the top of the post.
Step 2 :- Boot into TWRP.Wipe Dalvik,System,Data and Cache.After that,flash OxygenOS 3.0.2.
Step 3 :- [OPTIONAL] Flash SuperSU from here :- https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24459283995297946
Step 4 -> Reboot System.
Of course, this is about an old version of OxygenOS. But it looks the same as you said.
I think this, combined with your instructions, will make it a bit clearer. Still one question: What do you mean exactly by flashing?

I don't think I'd be monkeying around so much with my new phone if Xiaomi didn't make it so damn difficult to install TWRP recovery on their "anti-rollback" roms now. It's impossible to install TWRP using adb now because of the ""FAILED (remote: Anti-rollback check failed)" error and even installing TWRP Recovery through TWRP doesn't seem to work, or at least I can't figure out how to do it (it reboots to stock recovery). Bah. I think we need an updated guide or something.

You need to flash lazyflasher after you flash TWRP within TWRP. So that MIUI won't replace it with its stock recovery every time.

Okay, I finally figured out the problem. I was installing lazyflasher right after installing TWRP Recovery and got no errors, but every guide I've read has been telling me to press both "power" and "volume +" until I see the Mi Logo then release "power" while continuing to press "volume +" until the TWRP recovery screen shows up but every time I did that it would boot right into Android. But on my phone I have to release both buttons as soon as I see the Mi Logo and then it will boot into TWRP. So that was what was stumping me. Now it's all sorted and I just made my first Backup with TWRP so all is golden now

I have one final question which you might be able to answer: if I wanted to re-lock the bootloader and unroot my device back to factory defaults, I heard I can just flash the MIUI 9.6.3.0 rom over my existing install of MIUI 9.6.3.0. Where would I download the correct rom for that for my Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 (model #: M1803E7SH) for the GSM Unlocked Global version I have?

I can't install twrp, how do you install TWRP through the TWRP recovery itself ?
Hey Guys,
somehow, I seem to be too dumb to install TWRP to my new dumpling. I did the following:
- run the official updates (9.0.3 Pie)
- unlock the bootloader using adb
- successfully flash the latest TWRP recovery (twrp-3.2.3-1 dumpling from their HP)
So far, no problems at all. Then I booted directly into recovery, so it won't be overwritten again: I tried unplug + Power/Volume Down, command "fastboot reboot recovery" and selecting recovery from the menu. But everytime I end up with the beautiful stock recovery, I never even saw the TWRP interface.
Any suggestions ? Any help would be much appreciated!!
My only idea: The latest TWRP is from 08/2018, maybe its not compatible to Pie ?!

hi dude, to stay on TWRP you have to flash MAGISK, if not TWRP will always be overwritten by the StockRecovery!!

hi dude, sorry - now i got you
# after flashed TWRP unplug your device and reboot directly into the bootloader-mode (‘Volume Up’ + ‘Power’ button altogether) and navigate to 'Recovery' or
# fastboot boot 'recovery.img'
i recommend flashing twrp-3.2.3-x_blu_spark_v9.91_treble-op5_op5t.img : https://github.com/engstk/android_device_oneplus_cheeseburger/releases
SOLVED
I tried the 9.x recovery from this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5t/development/recovery-twrp-3-2-1-0-oreo-8-0-8-1-t3729673
works like a charm!
I thougth, the official TWRP site would be the best source, but well... lesson learnt. Anyway, thanks for trying to help, nicorvienne

Hey Guys,
somehow, I seem to be too dumb to install TWRP to my new dumpling. I did the following:
- run the official updates (9.0.3 Pie)
- unlock the bootloader using adb
- successfully flash the latest TWRP recovery (twrp-3.2.3-1 dumpling from their HP)
So far, no problems at all. Then I booted directly into recovery, so it won't be overwritten again: I tried unplug + Power/Volume Down, command "fastboot reboot recovery" and selecting recovery from the menu. But everytime I end up with the beautiful stock recovery, I never even saw the TWRP interface.
Any suggestions ? Any help would be much appreciated!!
My only idea: The latest TWRP is from 08/2018, maybe its not compatible to Pie ?!

try to flash an older version of twrp through "ADB minimal fast boot".
I use Twrp and am not using Magisk or rooted.
I never had a problem with root, I'm going through hell on my friend's cell phone, I install twrp everything ok, no error message, but when I restart both by command and manually to recovery mode, twrp is not installed, before anything, i'm not stupid, my whole life messed with root, rom editing etc, simply on redmi note 8 pro, when you install it via fastboot to twrp, it just won't go, and yes, on cmd / cell shows everything ok, that everything was installed correctly and without error, the problem is when it restarts, both in automatic mode using the fastboot boot twrp.img commands and when pressing the Power with the volume up, and yes, when installing it I did the fastboot flash recovery twrp.img and yes, the file is the correct one, and yes I already downloaded several types of twrp to my device and yes, my bootloader etc. everything is unlocked and I have already reinstalled the rom stock for the latest version and have already done wipe, nothing resolves this hellish problem of not installing twrp on my redmi note 8 pro friend....
Remembering, I've used several types of twrp here for the for the mod, flashing along with k vbmeta etc, nothing solves that

Can you tell me which Firmware Version ( MIUI and Android) are you using, and also which version of TWRP ?

I have the same problem. I have MIUI 12.0.5.0. QGGMIXM and I have tried TWRP 3.5.0_9-0 and TWRP 3.3.1-unofficial. I have flashed both via fastboot with vbmeta extracted from corresponding ROM.
After flashing, I launched
Code:
fastboot reboot recovery
so the device reboots but twrp is not showing, instead it reboots itself into system. At this point if I launch
Code:
adb reboot recovery
the stock recovery appears.
Moreover, I have successfully tried to flash TWRP 3.3.1-unofficial on MIUI 10.0.6.0 via the same procedure. This makes me think it has something to do with the latest MIUI. Anyone has an insight?
I have found this

No, for root and recovery only and stock miui you can follow this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/re...de-unlock-bootloader-flash-twrp-root-t3995919
If you're on Android 10, flash this recovery instead of the guide :
