Please dont reply harshly or bump me, I just got this account to ask for help here so i dont know all the rules and im not that tech savvy, anyways: So I had the newest oxygen os, then I rooted, installed twrp, unlocked bootloader, flashed Hydrogen Os all successfully. Then it became a hassle and I wanted to unroot and revert to 100% stock. So, I downloaded the stock firmware for Oxygen Os, Then I unrooted through Superuser, then went into recovery, wiped cache/dalvik/data, then flashed stock firmware. HERE'S WHERE THE PROBLEM STARTS, it first went into a bootloop, so I restarted it, then it booted successfully and i set it all up with a pin and fingerprint. Anyways, so once I got in, I wanted to relock the bootloader so i went into the settings, disabled the "oem unlock option", turned off my phone, went into fastboot, then typed "fastboot oem lock" and relocked the bootloader. THE REAL PROBLEM IS HERE: When I turned on my phone again and it booted, an all black screen came up that said "To start android please enter your password" so I entered the pin I set earlier, and it was wrong. No matter what i entered it said I was wrong. So, I shut off my phone and tried to go into recovery, and instead the OnePlus logo flashed then the phone turned off. So I went into fastboot and tried to wipe the data but it said partition erase is not allowed, then I tried to flash the stock and twrp and both times it said it failed too saying partition flashing is not allowed. So 1. I can't flash anything or wipe anything because its not allowed. 2. I cant get into android because it says my password is wrong. 3. I cant get into recovery because the Oneplus logo just flashes then phone turns off. PLEASE HELP ME THIS IS THE ONLY PHONE I HAVE!!!!
You should try Fastboot EDL. search Google. Good luck

Several people have had success reviving their OP3. Also, there is an option to contact OnePlus support and have a remote session with their tech support. They will send you an email with files to download and will walk you thru what you need to do for them to unbrick your device.

Try reflashing stock firmware with fastboot.

Update: I followed the Mega Unbrick Guide for a hard bricked Oneplus 3, and now instead of even starting android, this appears, and I cant get into recovery or flash anything because it isnt allowed....please help me
I think your error was to relock the bootloader because if it was still unlocked, you could still reflash the boot.img (but your relocked your bootloader)
Solving it.
Don't worry I shall help you.
This happened to me too.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/guide-mega-unbrick-guide-hard-bricked-t3405700
To get the drivers and adb along with twrp and root use this toolkit.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/development/toolkit-oneplus-3-toolkit-unlock-t3398799
Get the Oneplus drivers through this too.
It's not very complicated but ask me for any help.
Use the Method 2 in the Mega UnBrick Guide and download the stock image on to it.
You will lose data all of it.!
Make it boot.
Then tick OEM unlocking
Unlock bootloader through the toolkit.
flash twrp and root done..!!.
You messed up when you ticked off OEM unlocking and fastbooting it.
Nexus 5x h790 - Android 6.0.1
Some day he restarted and frozen in Google Logo. I just access the Bootloader Mode, recovery and Download mode don't run.
The problem is I can't into in Android settings, so I can't enter in developer options, OEM unlock is not allowed and USB debugging to. Because this I can't unlock my bootloader in Fastboot mode. I try use NRT but for solving my problem I need unlock my bootloader and my OEM is not activated.
Yesterday I read some topic that talking about let the device restart several times, for my surprise this worked and enter in the initiation process of Android, but is not everytime that works and is too longer to wait this miracle happens.
Please help me with this problem I don't know what I do now.
Sorry for my English I am from Brazil
Most likely you have a hardware problem.
You can try sideloading the FULL OTA using adb sideload and recovery, but you said you can't get into recovery. I am not sure if you can't get into recovery, ever, or just can't get in most of the time, but sometimes you can. If latter, try adb sideload of FULL OTA.
Bootloader is useless if you can't unlock it.
The last option is to use LGUP and the TOT file, but I think you mentioned not being able to get into download mode.
Keep in mind if you flash the TOT file, it doesn't come with a vendor partition, so it is likely you'll get some error during startup. What I would do is immediately go to developer options and enable OEM unlocking, then go to bootloader and unlock, then flash a full factory image that includes the vendor you need.
That's pretty much your options.
Hi there,
Proud owner of a new Pixel XL. Unlocked version. Tried rooting last night (i've rooted all devices i've owned and am not new to this). Followed the instructions to a "t". The device won't get past the white screen and dots leapfrogging each other. Now when going back to fastboot, device isn't recognised by ADB Fastboot etc...
Please help!!!!
My guide should be able to help you get back to the OS and then install root.
Keep in mind you may lose data if you don't remove the -w from the script mentioned in the guide.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-xl/how-to/info-how-restored-to-stock-soft-t3494478
Did you unlock bootloader?
Then immediately try rooting?
That is one cause for bouncing dots.
You should: flash factory image, then boot into device before any flashing. Setup device until you are at the home screen and OS settled. Use a pattern or pin security. That is needed to make recovery work properly. You need to decrypt at recovery boot. No ask for pin? Then power off and boot TWRP again.
Follow directions in TWRP and SuperSU threads to a Capital "T"...
Versions:
Latest "Q" firmware
Boot TWRP RC1 img, then flash zip installer
Use SuperSU 2.79 SR1.
You'll have no bootloop. I found first rooted boot to take just a few minutes.
Just in case: update SDK platform tools if you haven't cos that screws people up for days too.
Thanks mate. But i get to step 9 and nothing happens. My device is no longer recognised
thanks mate, but the problem is that now the device is simply not recognised by my computer. I can't flash anything
I should clarify.
SDK is 100% up to date.
I am trying on both Windows 10 and Mac.
Device drivers worked fine prior to trying to root.
I'm really worried that i might have just bricked a $1.4k(aud) device
I unlocked my bootloader and got a bootloop when I tried to fastboot to root. Would not recognize the device either. I redownloaded SU 3 as suggested in the third post and it worked. Good Luck.
I used the fastboot to root method and did not install TWRP.

Thanks, Mike01680. trying now
When i go into sideload i can see the device listed on adb devices!
Okay. Booted into recovery, found my firmware for NMF26O. Downloaded and ADB Sideloaded it can once again boot. thanks for all of your help!!!
Hello all,
I'm working on getting my bootloader unlocked. I bought what I thought was a ULM model off Amazon, but it appears to be a Sprint PM model that's been flashed with the ULM firmware. Sadly the EDL method doesn't seem to work on this phone (either the drivers aren't correct or some other issue is preventing me from getting past the Partition Manager step) so I was trying the old method Here. The issue I'm having is that the rootedboot image allows me to boot and Magisk comes installed, but any su commands never bring up a root prompt, including adb shell.
I also goofed and hit the "Install" from the magisk app and it appears to have made the bootloader angry, as the phone will no longer boot without my manually pushing the rooted image. I also cannot get LGUP to recognize the phone anymore (saying "Unknown model" so I can't flash it back to factory with the KDZ.
I still have access to Download Mode, fastboot, and system by pushing the rootedboot image.
Any help would be appreciated.
UPDATE:
I managed to get a root shell by re-patching the rootedboot image using the updated magisk manager application!
Bootloader is now unlocked, and I'm working on installing TWRP etc
Edit:
I'm still on the v35 abl at the moment, and that may explain why booting to the twrp recovery isn't working. Not sure yet
Use universal twrp ON any pie+ rom
So I appear to have a soft bricked phone. It is on stock firmware, although it has been unlocked previously in order to flash that over the Three custom firmware.
It randomly rebooted itself into a boot loop where it would get as far as the Razer logo and restart itself. I got into recovery and tried to factory reset it, at which point it claimed to have formatted /data but then complained it failed to mount /mnt/vendor/persist (no permission).
I can't see it in adb devices unless I put it in sideload mode - I presume I can't sideload anything anyway unless it is unlocked for flashing.
I can reboot to the bootloader and then see it in fastboot but I can't do very much there because the bootloader is not unlocked (so I can use Netflix, my banking app, etc), but I can't boot to the OS in order to unlock it or make sure adb debugging is on. The general instructions on Razer's website to do fastboot flashing unlock or unlock_critical don't seem to work as I think this needs the phone to be in 'download mode' which doesn't seem to be a thing since the Pie update. So if I try to reflash stock firmware it just complains that everything is locked.
Is there any way to get it into a flashable state without booting into the OS, or am I just screwed?
