Have to reset phone everytime i flash something in the recovery

I was using my Oneplus 3 on LineageOS for the past few weeks and when I downloaded the latest nightly the phone asked me to go through the setup process again. After I finished setting it up all my apps were crashing and I had to reset the phone. At first, I thought it was a problem with Lineage and so I switched to Ressurection Remix. I installed the rom and set up the phone but as soon I went to flash dolby atmos and reboot I had to set up my phone again and all my apps and settings were gone. I thought it was a bug with lineage so I switched to VertexOS. Again i set up the phone and installed all my apps. I went to flash magisk and the same thing happens. All my apps and settings gone. I am using twrp 3.1.0-0 and this keeps happening whenever I flash something after setting up the rom. I tried only booting to twrp and rebooting the phone but that did nothing so I guess it happens only when I flash something. Has anyone encountered this problem and if so is there a fix? Any help would be appreciated.

Try the TWRPs from eng.stk and jcadduono. I think that the official TWRP is ok only for OOS.

OnePlus 3T Midnight Black Edition & Lineage OS

I have been running Lineage OS on my OP3TMBE since the April 20th edition.
I am using TWRP 3.1.1-2 and Magisk 13.3.
Up to the Lineage OS 14.1-20170721-NIGHTLY-oneplus3 update, things have been working fine with each and every update.
Once I installed the above update, I lost my home button but it was remedied by installing the Open Beta 11 Firmware/Modem software from OnePlus.
I tried to install the Lineage OS 14.1-20170728-NIGHTLY-oneplus3 update and all hell breaks loose.
Google services continually crashes.
Play Store starts and just sits at the refresh screen.
I can't get any application to run for more then a few seconds.
I have had to revert to the Lineage OS 14.1-20170721-NIGHTLY-oneplus3 image I have backed up in TWRP in order to get my phone running again.
Is there something I am missing to go forward with this new nightly ???
Thanks,
Pete...
Oneplus 3T lineage 17 Bluetooth issue
I have fresh install of lineage 17 and all has been great other than not being able to hear anything phone ringing through any of my Bluetooth devices and the phone does a short start to the tone but ends it after one second or so. This is boggling my mind as to what is the problem. I've reset the Bluetooth and cleared the cash but nothing has worked. Please help me ?

should I flash recent fastboot rom?

hi,
I need advice again practically on the old matter. so since I bought my device I had always had wifi dcs. Most days I need to restart my phone 1-2 a day. I tried many things but it just doesn't get fixed. so I want to try something new. in may / june 2018 I got that phone which was on miui 9, I flashed twrp and some aosp roms. never gone back to miui, I always had arb3. last month I switched to arb4 oreo and immediately to pie firmware. but still nothing changed. now for a long time I noticed, if I flash any aosp rom I get the message like "target device 9.5.x.x". so while flashing my device show my old miui 9 version as target, never bothered by this. but now I wonder, what if I flash a recent fastboot rom with miflash to completely reset my phone. then reinstall twrp and any aosp rom again. do you guys thing that might change anything? well besides the number on "target device". right now I have most recent beta global firmware, can I flash recent stable global fastboot rom? (not sure about that arb4 thing, does it count as rollback?).
thanks in advance
Well who is interested, I did what I wrote and stayed on miui 10 for now. I had 2 days in a row no wifi dc. I test some more and then return to aosp and test there.
It's always safe to flash any room which has same antirollback version (arb4 in your case)
You can flash 9.5.19 stable Oreo ROM to 10.3.1 android pie fastboot ROM without any problem..
4 days now and still no more wifi dc, should have did that way sooner. will try aosip pie next.

Do I need to downgrade pie firmwre if I were to use oreo android ?

My whyred RN5pro come with global rom miui 10 with android pie I think ?
I unlocked the bootloader and flash PE pie latest version, it required pie firmware, and I flash latest pie firmware from https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/firmware/whyred/
After usage for half year, I decided to use oreo rom, there's a few reason.
1. I thought always keep update will make it more stable and safe. But I was wrong, the more I update the PE rom, the more unstable it was. After usage a few days, it will freeze and need reboots, sometimes it slow on animation.
2. I need call recorder, but android pie restrict this function.
3. The latest build now come with wifi drop or something, sometimes my internet access is unavailable while my wifi was working fine.
After that I think a lot whether to use pie or oreo, and which custom rom suits my need ?
After reading and searching, and thinking a lot in these 3 days, I come up with a solution.
1. Because the pie keep get updating, it always got bug and some glitches stuff, and I don't have a lot of time and don't like to keep flashing new custom rom, I decided to use Oreo Custom rom final version instead.
2. After a lot of research I come upon RR, PE, havoc OS, liquid remix, lineageos, and decided on lineageos 15.1 final version as my custom rom.
3. Because I don't need a lot customisation, I think lineage os is the best for me, as I only need privacy guard, network traffic indicator, and stability.
So I changed to lineageos 15.1, here is what I do
1. wipe dalvick cache, data , internal storage
2. flash oreo latest firmware V10.3.1.0.OEIMIXM from xiaomi updater site
3. flash lineage-15.1-20180709-UNOFFICIAL-whyred.zip
4. flash magisk 19.3
5. flash opengapps pico
6. flash lazyflasher no verify opt ( ended up failed / error ) Because I read some user getting bootloop caused by encrypted phone or something, I don't know about this part, so I just flash lazyflasher as the instructions said for uncencrypted phone ( ended up failed / error ) ( I don't know if my phone encrypted or not, so I just flash it as additional file)
7. reboot, after getting in, it shows android encrypting, and reboot again, after a few minutes, I thought it stuck on boot loop, but finally it gets into the welcome screen. I tried reboot a few times to see if it stuck or not, but it was working fine. Tested the rom 24 hours by now, and everything seems to work fine.
What I want to ask is,
1. Does my step on changing from pie custom rom to oreo custom rom correct ?
2. lineage-15.1-20180709-UNOFFICIAL-whyred.zip Is this the final version of oreo lineageos 15.1 whyred custom rom ?
3. Sometimes I saw my sim network bar gone completely, but I can make call and check balance, and in the sim status, it show -100dbm and 99 asu. Is this normal ? Or is it because I flash wrong firmware or something ? Or is it caused by my area unstable tower network so the bar completely gone ?
4. Should I use pie or oreo firmware in this custom rom lineageos 15.1 android 8.1 ? Or it's irrelevant because the firmware is flashed by the lineageos custom rom ?
5. Do I need custom kernel ? And what's the best custom kernel for android oreo ?
Other than that, I am satisfied with everything it offers. Thanks for reading and replying.
1. Yes. I've never flashed lazyflasher though.
2. Yes.
3. If you can call, it's probably just very weak signal and the indicator goes off. Otherwise it's a bug in LOS, I doubt the firmware has anything to do with it (I'm on Oreo too).
4. Oreo.
5. No, but it wont hurt you if you try a couple - just make sure they work in Oreo firmware. I'm on KangarooX R4.4 and getting over 10 hours of SOT.

Question [HELP] POCO F3 EU OTA updates / even manually Updates don't work

Hey all
I recived the miui 12.5 enchanced [ALIOTHEEAGlobal_V12.5.3.0.RKHEUXM] (2.9 GB & 466 MB) Update a few days ago via ota. My rom is stock - no root or custom Recovery. The download and installing process work fine, but then the Phone need to restart. While restarting the Phone stuck at poco Logo. Only with a few reboots (or leave it alone for a long time) the Phone comes alive again. Then there is the Info miui update failed after reboot. I also tried to Update manually the Full and increment Rom over the three dots menue. No Chance. Even if i install my current rom version [ALIOTHEEAGlobal_V12.5.3.0.RKHEUXM] again - the same problem
I searched the whole Internet and couldn't find someone with the same problem.
Please help.. Thank yo all!
FYI: I cannot do a full reset / wipe with data loss, because i have so much banking apps and accounts. I need a full day of restoring my current status and i don't have the time at the moment.
No one?
Hmm... I don't know if it possible with locked BL but try boot from B partitions? Are they for cases like this one, aren't they?
I dont know this option. How will this work?
I backed up my phone as good as possible und tried to flash with "XiaoMitTool V2" my currend rom and the 12.5.6.0 and it always endet in "miui sideload failed". WTF is here going wrong .. While sideloading it stops at 4.99% on phone screen.
Have you tried with 12.5.6 via stock recovery? (full rom ofc, not OTA). It doesn't erase your data.
I also tried ToolV2 with my F3 and no luck too.
isnt 12.5.6 eea enchanced? 12.5.3 is older update in eu
I tried to update through stock recovery and MIAssistant but no success. Like @crysus said, it stops to 4,99 on phone screen, no error but it boots to the old ROM. Maybe because is a stable beta version.
Mine updade went all good without hassles. I updated it via stock recovery but first I use 3 dots menu in system updater app just to show where update file is. (full recovery fw used, not just OTA).
The fastboot version of 12.5.6_EEA has been available for a few days now, it can be Flash with miflash.
