Ok. I foolishly enabled encryption on my i711 and after putting in the password, the volumes unlock and the system starts. The problem is that if the screen goes off for any reason, the phone reboots. Tried all sorts of things to correct and decided I no longer wanted the phone encrypted. There is no way back. Ok, so I thought I could do a factory reset... No dice. The phone reboots and all is still encrypted and there.
Next I tried clockworkmod but couldn't do ANYTHING there because the encrypted volumes aren't mountable. I couldn't factory reset, install a new rom, etc.
Next I went to ODIN and tried to repartition. No luck there either. I flashed clockworkmod again for good measure and even tried Nand Erase All.
After this I booted into the phone and tried to repartition... Now I have a phone that displays the lovely CM10 boot screen but never gets passed that. I can still get into recovery.
Any thoughts on how to undo the encryption and reflash a rom?

I have some very bad news for you.... Encryption is a one way street. Once encrypted the only way back is to flash stock via fastboot.
I can't even start to explain how to use fastboot as I have never been in a situation where I have needed it.
recoveries lose all access on encrypted devices so this is the only way.
Here is some links to get you started... Please do research before you begin the process and make sure you've obtained the appropriate files. I will take no responsibility for bricking your device.

Im on ATT M8, I recently flashed over 3.28.xxx.6.....everything was fine, vanir was running great and I had no problems with recovery.....I wanted to flashed MaximusHD Sense rom, so I downloaded both the OTA manual package and the ROM......When I booted into recovery, i could not wipe anything as I kept getting red error messages within the recovery.....I cant remember exactly what it said. Ive seen this before and all I had to do was reflash a recovery. The thing I had done before was flash a different rom without wiping anything, then bootload boot into recovery where I was able to wipe everything and start over, but after flashing Maximus (aroma)....it went to like 5% I believe and automatically rebooted to where it sits now.....The only two screens that it remains still is the bootloader and the bootscreen right before boot animation, any help would be appreciated. I think Im going to redownload a recovery, rename it 0P6BIMG.zip and bootload flash the recovery since my windows 7 computer is not recognizing my device even after installing moborobo and htc sync manager......
also everytime I try to reboot into recovery, it automatically restarts the phone.....just a tidbit info I forgot to mention
I had the same issue. Grab the partition fixer here somewhere and flash that after you flash your recovery again in bootlloader. For some reason the internal storage gets messed up sometimes and causes this.
Damnit, you are right and I completely forgot...and I changed my dang baseband back to 401.5 and went straight to dees troy version of twrp
I have no idea how to root or anything like that, I bought this oneplus 3 and had a update a week later.. so when I did the software update it took me into teamwin recovery mode and now I don't know how to get back into my phone please help....
Did you buy the phone second hand or did you try to flash TWRP yourself? It shouldn't have TWRP installed by default.
Regardless, you can use TWRP to flash the latest update.
Given that you have TWRP, I'm assuming that you have an unlocked bootloader. Did you notice a warning pop up everytime you reboot your phone before? It should say something along the lines of "your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted". If not, you'll have to unlock it (it wipes your phone in the process).
If the bootloader is unlocked, you can simply download and flash the latest zip for OOS 4.0.3 in TWRP. This will update you phone and replace TWRP with the stock recovery (so you don't run into this problem again in the future when installing an OTA). If you don't intend to modify your phone in any way, then this is all you need to do, your phone should be functional.
There are plenty of threads with detailed guides on how to do all of this.
I'm also stuck on TWRP after stupidly downloading the latest OTA and I don't know what to do!
Phone won't boot normal, just goes off.
Situation:
- Bootloader, Fastboot and TWRP wil load.
- Device seen by windows
- Zip install in TWRP gets stuck at 'patching zip unconditiontally'
- Another zip flashes, but gets stuck at the end, no reboot option (manually but that's not the way)
Can someone please point me in the right direction? I don't care if I lose data, just want my phone back!

Saying i'm a dipsh-t I know, I know, I will do better in the future, for now, help a brother out please

Simple, check the OnePlus D/L sites for this one http://oxygenos.oneplus.net.s3.amazonaws.com/recovery_op3.img and flash it by TWRP or fastboot to RECOVERY. Boot once with the official Recovery and all ist fine again.
This is issue of using a faulty twrp so for that when ur phone us booting up go to fastboot and flash twrp 3.0.4-1 and everything will work

Similar Problem here:
just wanted to flash latest OOS 4.0.3, so I flashed back stock recovery with flashify and rebooted into recovery mode to flash the already downloaded OOS 4.0.3. zip. That's when it began to go poop! After rebooting it just went dark with no Chance to power it on again! No dice with power button, Volume up/down + power button, nothing! Not even the LED's are blinking when plugged in. So this one seems to be basically dead!
I got it once booting again after randomly pushing the buttons (after x minutes!?), but everytime I reboot the phone it just shuts off without beeing able to power it on again. At the Moment it's dead!
Any ideas what might happened? If I get it on again, should I immediately reset it to factory Settings?
I am kinda lost here! Any help/ideas would be much appreciated!
Flashify? Never used it and never trusted apps which flash stuff on a running system. Use fastboot and reflash the recovery partition. Link to recovery is in my former post.
fastboot flash recovery PATHTOIMGFILE
Thank you for your advice! Still a lot to learn! Got it up again, will try as you suggested!
It appeared that my stock recovery file was corrupted , but all is fine again! Thank you very much!

I may have been the person you traded with to get the OnePlus 3, but I took the phone back and after 5 hours I got it up and running.
The phone would boot to TWRP, but even after wiping the entire system and dragging a ROM zip to the internal storage, reinstalling did nothing. It just kept booting back to recovery.
The solution entailed the following.
Download stock recovery IMG. Flashed through TWRP. Rebooted recovery and now was back to stock recovery.
Download the official OxygenOS ROM zip from the OnePlus website and changed the name to update.zip
Next I downloaded Android studio for access to ADB. I had never used ADB before, but I knew this was needed to push a file to the phone.
Needless to say, ADB kept freezing my computer when I would type in the commands to side load.
I deleted Android studio and installed a minimal ADB/Fastboot I found online. I opened my command prompt, typed the command for sideloading, and immediately got my installation starting. It took about 10 minutes to fully install. When it was finished, I rebooted and had a fully functioning OnePlus 3

I rooted my galaxy note 10+ with Magisk the other day. everything was fine until i gave an app root access to uninstall another app that i had converted to a system app....as soon as it was uninstalled a message popped up saying it had to reboot and did so automatically only to get stuck in Bootloader.
I can access recovery mode and downloader mode, i have tried wipe/reset, wipe cache, flashing original firmware back on etc and it just ends up back at the bootloader. someone please give me some advice.
i tried using ADB but only some commands work and mostly all the useful ones say error or closed.
I unfortunately do not have a custom Recovery either as this is my first rhodeo for Rooting and in hind sight i should have done more research. I have attempted to flash TWRP Recovery onto my phone via Odin but it either does nothing or takes me to the same boot screen but with errors and locks me out of base recovery mode.
I have been at this for hours now losing my marbles!:crying:
CAN SOMEONE PLEASE GIVE SOME ADVICE/INSIGHT...I HAVE SPENT ALL NIGHT TRYING MULTIPLE THINGS AND GOOGLING TO NO AVAIL.

If anything, you'd probably have to do a full wipe and restore back to stock.

Could yo solve the problem?
Ok so I was sending mine back to Google my speaker didn't work in calls. So I decided to flash the factory image with the-w and was going to relock the bootloader. Right after I flashed I got stuck in a boot loop, I figured I could just wipe in recovery like my old pixels. It finally gave me your device is corrupt message won't boot, but will not give me the option to wipe. Not even in recovery it fails. Is there anything else I can try? What a deal.
Edit. Okay I finally figured it out I had to use the Android flashing tool I'm used to using adb and fastboot. I'm booting again
