I accidentally flashed a custom rom after i thought I'd unlocked my bootloader, the bootloader was not unlocked and now I'm in a error loop, Help? or advice? I'm very new to this stuff
If you can get to bootloader, from off hold power and up volume key until ASUS logo appears, you can try to use fastboot to install an image file, get it from the pre-rooted roms thread in original android developement.
Hopefully this will fix. If you want to try a stock rom from ASUS then you still need to go to this mode, go to recovery and, if youget a n android with error underneath, hold the same buttons as above. This will allow you to either flash using ADB or you can put the downloaded zip folder on your fat32 formatted sd card, named MOFD-SDUPDATE.zip, and do a recovery stock flash by picking the update file.
Good luck...
Still no success.
My problems started when I couldn't flash xposed framework onto my rooted zenfone 2 (ze551ml). I tried different versions for intel devices from one of the links i got here. Then i tried to do it via magisk installation. I was using twrp 2.8.7.0 to flash the roms. After attempting to install magisk v7, my device couldn't boot. Have tried installing stock rom from the asus website via abd sideload and by flashing it after renaming it mofd_sdupdate.zip. The processes seeem to work fine and "complete" or "finished" messages pop up. But when i try to reboot it stops at bootloader screen or just goes directly to twrp.
Can someone help.

1. Magisk on stock ROMs may require some modifications in order to work or booting correctly.
2. You may want to flash RAW firmware...

Thanks, I was able to flash the RAW firmware and now my phone works again. Had to install Intel soc drivers xfstk downloader and Asus flash tool. Quite a tideous process but worth it at the end.

I wiped the internal storage on my phone by mistake and now my phone has no OS or ROM to flash it back on. I tried to sideload with TWRP but the feature wouldn't start. I flashed the stock recovery and tried to sideload it there but I get an "error: protocol fault (no status)"... I tried to mount storage on TWRP but that feature didn't seem to work on it either. It's a good thing that I still have my OnePlus One to use, but I would appreciate your help!!

I had the same issue the first time I tried to add side load the stock rom, I tried it again and it worked. my suggestion is to try the side load again. Make sure your using the full rom zip.

I tried like a thousand times on both stock and TWRP to no avail. When I reflashed TWRP and tried to sideload one last time it told me that I needed ADB version 1.0.32 which is what I should have because I installed the "15 seconds ADB Installer v1.4.3" from the stickied guide here on the OP3 forums... Anyway, I got access to the TWRP folder and the internal storage by just being in the TWRP recovery, not sure if it was always like that, but I just dragged and dropped the ROM and other flashables onto the phone... lol Maybe I was freaking out too much to notice, but why would anyone sideload anything if you could just drag and drop stuff while in TWRP and just flash? Maybe reflashing TWRP fixed something or I was using an older beta OP3 version before, I re-downloaded everything.

I screwed up when I tried to update to 3.2.0 OOS. I were rooted so the installtion failed and I restored a corrupt backup with TWRP that resulted in a stuck boot logo.
I did this too fix this. boot into fastboot (if you still can) then make sure its connection properly. "fastboot devices". Then in your ADB folder place a TWRP.img and type "fastboot boot twrp.img" wait like 10 seconds, it will seem like it doesn't work but if you are a functional TWRP img it should boot up just fine. Select allowed modifications and then you can also access storage. There is a post on the oneplus forums where you can download signed full zips of the ROMS. download any of them. I will past in the post if I can find it later. Not home atm. Just copy the .zip onto the phone and then do a factory reset and flash the full rom and then reboot should work just fine. You don't need too flash TWRP just boot it if you still wanna keep stock recovery.

Bro don't worry.
All you gotta do is to download a stock image.
Boot into fastboot.
Then use a toolkit like this one.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/development/toolkit-oneplus-3-toolkit-unlock-t3398799
Then use his toolkit to download and boot in twrp.
Now copy paste a full signed zip onto the phone by connecting it to your PC .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/mirrors-official-oxygen-os-roms-ota-t3410870
Do a system and cache clean.
Flash the zip and make it boot before rooting it.
Done..!!

Hey all, just got my 128GB VZW Pixel XL, unlocked the BL via dePixel8 and so far I love the phone, but cannot figure out why TWRP won't even boot for me to obtain root. I've now tried fastboot boot twrp.img with both TWRP RC1 and Alpha 2 .img's on NOF27B and cannot get TWRP to boot at all - I get a bootloop of sorts with TWRP's main screen rapidly flashing on and off, which persists until I do a hard reboot. This is also the case when I tried it on the Android O Dev Preview. Anyone know why this is happening or have a fix?
Did you download the latest platform tools directly from Google and then try again? They are available as a separate download now without needing to download the SDK. Don't use the minimal ones that were floating around

I'm fully updated on that front. Fastboot itself works just fine, it's specifically TWRP that won't boot at all.
EDIT: Sorry, on second thought FlashFire requires root, so what I posted wouldn't work. I don't remember this sort of thing being reported in the TWRP threads, so I might also try starting with a new install to see if the same thing happens.

No idea but I'd it were me I'd start from scratch. Flash a factory image with fastboot so you are completely back to square 1. Go through initial setup and then enable a passcode in the settings. Then try TWRP again.

Anybody have any more ideas on this other than what is mentioned. I have the latest platform-tools installed and the latest adb. I've flashed the latest 8.0.0 factory image. I've got no PIN or password setup, but I've tried it with that as well. All I get every time I do "fastboot boot path/to/twrp.img" is the flash TWRP bootscreen, but it nevers loads up. If I go back to bootloader and choose recovery, I get the android no recovery installed screen. This is driving me nuts already!

Have you tried:
1. setting up pin
2. Putting TWRP.img in the platform-tools folder
3. opening command prompt
4. Fastboot boot TWRP.img

Having the same issues I've unlocked already but I can't get it to boot the twrp.img. I've set a PIN already, and updated sdk with no dice. It just flashes the twrp startup screen over and over. Found it I'm golden now.

Are you using this TWRP: twrp-3-1-pixel-bootable-mod.img
Hello everyone,
Since I'm facing difficulties connecting my Nexus 5X to my PC (believe me, I have tried nearly everything), I was wondering if it is possible to flash Magisk to my phone without the use of a PC. The bootloader is still unlocked because i've rooted my phone previously (when it still could connect to my PC). All the possibilities I ran into require either root or a PC.
I hope one of you guys knows a way how to handle this without losing all my data.
Thanks in advance!
Assuming you don't have a custom recovery installed either?? What's the "difficulty with trying to hook to a PC?
No, I don't have a custom recovery installed. There are more people facing this problem: https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x/help/unlock-bootloader-fastboot-detecting-t3236946/page4. Solution is not working for me for some reason.
To install magisk you need a custom recovery. And to install a custom recovery you need a pc.

I was afraid of that. Maybe i'll go with a factory reset then. Thanks tot the help anyways.

Not true, you just need a working adb connection with a computer. You can flash patched boot image with fastboot then

You're right. You can flash a boot image with fastboot. Is there a boot image that has magisk as party of it?
Well, I have installed Magisk Manager, and it gives me the option to patch a boot image-file. When I choose this option it askes me to select te original boot image-dump (.img or .img.tar). Since I'm no expert and I don't know where to find this and what this does, I'm afraid of losing my data or bricking my phone.

You would use the boot.img from the factory image that your rom is based on. Find your device below and download the 1 GB zip. Inside this zip is another zip you'll need to open to find the boot image (boot.img). Flashing boot images doesn't wipe internal storage, but it does remove root if you had it installed.
Factory images:
https://developers.google.com/android/images?hl=en
There's not really a collection of stock boot images besides what's included in the factory image.

My pixel 2 xl non rooted with unlocked bootloader.
So, Is it possible to flash latest OTA update directly through the phone via stock recovery?
As you aware that with the known and common pixel 2 xl issue which you can't get it connected to PC.
I'm stuck on October update and I'd be glad if someone could help me out on this matter.

If I'm wrong plzz tell me where at I'm wrong and how to gain root thanks for all the help
Update not got root
hi everybody i wanted to root a samsung a3 2018(idk what version it is because it is still my grandma's phone) and as i know there isn't any twrp version for that phone
I'm following some guides to root my pixel xl but am running to some issues.
I tried using twrp-3.3.1-0-marlin.img to load Magisk-v19.3.zip but it gives me errors mounting system and vendor.
I then tried using twrp-3.3.0-0-marlin.img to load Magisk-v19.3.zip and it appears to succeed. I reboot, but Magisk Manager never appears. When I load it manually, it tells me that Magisk 19.3 isn't installed.
I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. Is there some hidden step?
Thank you.

I've followed this along with every other guide I could find at least 10x each or more, and still haven't achieved root. Everything seems to install fine, but everytime I open Magisk Manager, it shows "Magisk is not installed". And that seems to be the only thing keeping me from getting root. There has to be a missing step or something... It's been about 5 years since I've rooted a device(HTC M8), but I don't remember ever having so much difficulty. I've wiped the phone more times than I can count, uninstalled/reinstalled Magisk(regular and Canary), tried to do this on both Android 8 and 9, tried to complete this process on both LinuxMint and Windows, etc. I'm completely out of ideas at this point.

That's definitely one that I haven't tried yet. I'm still on Android 9 for now. I downloaded the latest Platform tools just a few days ago, so that part should be up to date. It doesn't seem like there's much for Android 10 yet, so I'm waiting a bit before I switch.

This was my dilemma. I have no PC so I am using Osmosis's static fastboot magisk mod and it works excellent but because the sdk must be an updated version it does not know the command when you flash the patched boot.img the " --slots all " it says unrecognizabled command in termux and terminal emulator but everything else will flash it's just that new --slots all that gets it. Is there any way for me to get the boot.img on both slots without using that command? Can I just fastboot the boot then reboot bootloader and repeat? Would that get it on both slots?
Is it possible to install the boot.img in one slot or will that mess things up? Guide has patched boot on both...Or just boot twrp 3300 and flash a rom? I'm weary about getting too brave because I bricked a device recently that was A/B. I been around for many years and never bricked anything till recently. ?

Can I fastboot vendor and bootloader, or anything instead of the entire factory image if I want to roll back to August Pie from October 10? I'm going after DU and it's an August pie build..

To roll back you not only have to flash the entire image but you'll have to wipe your phone.
TWRP boot looping?
I'm trying to root a Pixel XL Android 10, purchased form Google. I'm stuck at the point of trying to boot the phone to the temporary TWRP. Using command "fastboot boot twrp.img" .
I get the "Sending, Booting, Finished OKAY" messages, but the phone then shows a never ending flash of the TWRP logo every few seconds, with no functionality.
The twrp.img I'm using is twrp-3.0.2-0-RC1-fastboot-marlin.img
Any suggestions?

I get the "Sending, Booting, Finished OKAY" messages, but the phone then shows a never ending flash of the TWRP logo every few seconds, with no functionality.
The twrp.img I'm using is twrp-3.0.2-0-RC1-fastboot-marlin.img
Any suggestions?

NEVER MIND: I was using wrong version of TWRP.
