So my phone has been lagging a whole lot using the stock rom and I have decided that I'll try a custom rom to see if that changes anything. So I came here and saw this forum:
"https://forum.xda-developers.com/xa1/development/half-gsi-oreo-8-1-t3902259"
I thought I'll try and so I unlocked my bootloader, only to have my phone be reset (not a problem, everything was backed up). It also boots with a warning "Device unlocked and can't be trusted".
Then I went on to download TWRP using this link in that post: "https://mega.nz/#!FQFXCYSY!DgxQRkaY1Eqq3B0fZLEQBNzUs0Zj80L6IzSHxdorQ3A" which is the TWRP 3.3.0.0 V2 IS FOR ALL USERS.
I didn't want to flash in the event it was the wrong recovery so I tried booting into it, fastboot boot recovery.img
It flashed, everything was ok and now the phone doesn't boot. It stayed in a boot loop. I went ahead and flashed recovery this time, no luck. Downloaded a recovery.img from another website and it didn't allow me to boot to android or recovery.
Is there a way to save my phone, I can't get another phone until August due to contract. It can still boot to fastboot and gets stuck when trying to boot to android. It being able to boot to fastboot makes me think theres a chance to flash a stock rom or any custom recovery and rom to get the phone working again. Any help? Thanks!

OK use the boot.img and recovery.img made by @janjan HERE. Under the heading ¨Downloads¨ see ¨Xperia XA1¨ and download the KERNEL + RECOVERY the boot.img and recovery.img are compatible with the G3121-G3112-G3125-G3116-G3123 devices on the applicable firmware.
Flash BOTH using fastboot. The boot.img is patched to allow TWRP to boot which it will never do using the stock boot.
If you wish to go back to stock then simply use FlashTool to flash the stock fotakernel.sin and boot.sin contained in the firmware for your device.
Does it works becouse I boot my g3116 from flashtool camand was
Fastboot boot boot.img and then also it's stuck into bootloader

Hi,
My phone is rooted and the DPI was customized. I tried to manually flash the OTA but the installation got stuck so I cannot boot into Android anymore. I tried those restore tutorials but when I try to flash using fastboot I get a "FAILED (remote: Permission denied). I tried to clear the cache in the recovery and then it got also stuck and now I can't access recovery.
This is what I can read in the bootloader
---------------------------
FASTBOOT MODE
PRODUCT_NAME - Z00A
VARIANT - ASUS_Z00A
HW_VERSION -
BOOTLOADER VERSION - unknown
IFWI - 0094.0177
SERIAL NUMBER - Xxxxx....
SIGNING - ?
SECURE_BOOT - ?
continue fastboot process

I just been successful in installing TWRP recovery using the toolkit.
Edit: I installed the latest CM 13 build and it can't boot to Android. It goes straight to TWRP recovery no matter how I turn on the phone. My bootloader still looks the same.
Edit: I tried flashing a prerooted .img and stock recovery and I can go back to recovery but I still can't boot into Android or factory reset or nothing.... I'm desperate!

You may need to flash boot.img and droidboot.img for the same version of rom you flashed, ie. if you flashed 139 then you must flash the recovery, boot and droidboot images for 139...
As you found the pre-root rom files, download the whole file and flash these image files too making sure you use the right commands or you will brick your phone...
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
fastboot flash boot boot.img
fastboot flash fastboot droidboot.img
fastboot flash system system.img
Just remember, flashing these partitions can, potentially, brick your phone. You do this at your own risk...
Happy flashing....

Thanks for your help. I did that earlier with the latest pre-rooted OTA and now it gets stuck on the splashscreen. I tried going to recovery (stock now) and doing a factory reset after flashing system.img and it still the splashscreen after I reboot. I know the 1st boot after flahing a ROM can be long, but now it's been an hour and I'm still on the splash screen...
The only other thing I can recommend is to flash a RAW rom image. As I have never needed to do this I can't say how this works but if you do a search you should find out the procedure...
This may relock your bootloader so just be aware....
I fumbled trying to flash a custom rom. I forgot to do the step where I unlock the bootloader. Now my phone is currently stuck on fastboot. If I choose the option to boot normally, my phone retarts and I am again in fastboot mode.
My goal here is to flash CM 13. Is this still possible? How can I get my phone to at least boot properly into recovery mode (it is rooted).
Fastboot flash stock recovery.
It worked. Thank you! I also went through all the steps again and have successfully installed a custom rom.
So, I was attempting to root my phone(CanvasA1- 4GB) today running stock android marshmallow(6.0.1) , I successfully unlocked the boot loader in fastboot using adb, after which I flashed TWRP recovery, Which was successful but then, When I rebooted into recovery, I saw my old stock google's recovery running , I tried 2-3 more times flashing the recovery in fastboot but the probem was still the same :crying:. Then I came to know that we have to flash a special type of boot img of some 17.5mb approx, When I attempted to flash this "boot" image, I received an error saying file size too large, Hence I couldn't flash it, I am still running the stock recovery, With my bootloader unlocked, I need to root my phone, Please help someone, Thanks in advance .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/cro...-master-tool-unlock-bootloader-t2997696/page1 use this tool and flash custom recovery simple
You can search for Android One Toolkit. Iwas encountering the same problem but this app solved my Problem.
Sorry dont have Link for the Same.
Same here. I unlocked the bootloader successfully and flashed TWRP recovery. But it shows system/default recovery only. Now stuck in bootloop.
Tried clearing cache/date etc. nothing worked. Don't know what to do.
Hi guys i flashed the 3.5.3 CM today but i decided to go back with 3.26 again, so i followed a guide that tells me to install stock recovery over twrp before i install the rom but after i fastboot flash the recovery i cannot go into the recovery anymore.
i tried to flashed the modified twrp and then boot to recovery but still wont open it.
the phone works and can go into fastboot still but it just wont access recovery
anyway to fix it? sorry if this has been discussed before. im on a mac for more info
TIA
1+3
Is your OS booting?
yea
Got the same problem here. Can boot into system and fastboot but if boot to recovery i get the oneplus logo and the bootloaderscreen and then i get a black screen where i should get my recovery. And if wanna Force shutdown my oneplus it freezes somehow. I tried everything to fix this with no result. Stock recovery doesnt work too.
Hi I just had the same problem, I have sent it back to Oneplus for repair. According to the ticket, I had a faulty motherboard, which has been replaced. If you can, do it. I only had to wait for a week before it was sent back.
Had the same problem last night. Following method nr 2 in thos thread solved it.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3405700
Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using XDA-Developers mobile app
using fastboot to wipe the recovery partition then fastboot flashing modified twrp twice worked for me, i think the oneplus recovery image thats doing the rounds doesn't want to play nice lol
If youre phone boots in to system, download Flashify from play, flash recovery.img (you need to extract .img file). Go to recovery to check if it works. If not try other recovery.
after flashing the community build i cant boot my device in fastboot mode, it wont start the recovery or boot the system sucessfully.

If your device is unlocked, flash the recovery.img from fastboot.
You can download TWRP for oneplus 3 from their site.
Rename the downloaded recovery to recovery.img.
And open fastboot in the path of the recovery image.
Use the command:
Code:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Hopefully this helps

managed to fix it the other day, by flashing the modded twrp.. somehow that one worked after that i flashed the 3.26 plus the 3.26 modem ones because if i didnt, my touch screen wont work...
For me, I flashed the twrp from fastboot.
But still the 1+ logo shows when I try to boot in to recovery for 5 sec and shuts down with 2 dots of lights in the navigation button area
The normal boot is working fine. Did flash the recovery using apps like TWRP Manager, Flashify etc. It will show successfulll. But when I try to boot in to recovery, same result.
Please help
Hey guys and gals,
Silly question.
For a few months now, I've had TWRP 3.1.0 RC2 installed and no matter what I do, I absolutely cannot reboot into recovery. If I choose reboot to recovery while the phone is running, it results in a ramdump and eventually boots to system. If I reboot into the bootloader and choose to boot into recovery mode from there, it just boots to system. It's incredibly annoying. Literally the only time I can get into recovery is when I connect my phone to a computer and fastboot boot into a temporary TWRP Img and install TWRP again. Once I boot into system, I can never boot into recovery again. This is extremely inconvenient on the go, like right now, because I want to flash V4A before I start playing music from my Bluetooth speaker. Guess I'll just listen to low quality music :'(
What am I doing wrong? This is stupid.

I had the same problem, then I got a twrp boot loop, ended up having to boot into slot b and reflash stock img through adb, beware...
I was JUST about to post this! Exact same problem to the tee (except using RC1)! Hopefully someone smarter can chime in lol

Anyone got some insight to this? Can't be that uncommon of a problem...
Try starting the process again.
Boot to bootloader
Fastboot boot 3.0.2 rc1
In twrp flash 3.1.0 r 2
Reboot recovery and check if it works

I never had TWRP stick unless I added another step to your instructions --boot completely into the rom once, go back into the bootloader, open temp TWRP and flash the TWRP zip again. If I didn't do this my recovery would always revert to stock but, strangely, even though I was running a custom rom the combination of the custom rom and stock recovery never bootlooped my phone and I was able to boot from the stock recovery to the custom rom with no problems. The only reason not being able to boot into TWRP was even an issue was that you can't flash any zips in recovery without it. Otherwise the phone ran so perfectly I didn't even realize at first that TWRP wasn't still the installed recovery.
Get the stock boot.img (this will remove root/kernel/twrp)
Boot into the bootloader
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot --set-active=a or b (switch to the inactive slot)
Fastboot reboot bootloader
Fastboot flash boot boot.img
Fastboot --set-active=a or b (reload previous slot)
Fastboot reboot bootloader
Fastboot BOOT twrp.img
Flash TWRP in twrp..
If you can do that I would be interested in your results.
Also pointing out flashing rooms and certain zips here in the forums WILL revert you back to a stock recovery. Just my last bit of helpful information, hope someone gets it figured out, flashing is already a chore for those of us who like to experiment.

I was able to boot into recovery after doing this. Got a bootloop booting into system though, but flashing the ROM (and TWRP) fixed it.
Hello,
Try booting to TWRP 3.0.2 RC1 then flash TWRP 3.0.2 RC1 + SR1-SU v2.82SR1 + SU Pixel Fix (from Chains beta thread) one right after the other in the same TWRP session then reboot. Should fix your issue, give you recovery+root without ram dump.
Cheers
Everytime you flash a rom you need to flash twrp before rebooting or you'll lose twrp recovery.
Unfortunately I've had to get my Pixel XL replaced due to a defect and received a Verizon edition XL running 7.1.1. This is what I get for buying it from Best Buy Therefore I cannot unlock the bootloader and this problem no longer applies to me.
I'll keep this thread open for a bit in case it's useful for anyone else. I'll just sit here in all of my Stock-ness.
I couldn't get this to work. Tried flashing stock boot.img, then booting off of the TWRP images but I keep getting TWRP boot loop. Any suggestions? Tried flashing the entire stock image as well and no dice...
