are you Trying 3.5.2???

Having a similar issue. I'm on 3.5.2 unlocked bootloader, no root, stock recovery. Everytime I try to flash TWRP, it appears to succeed, but will never boot to TWRP. Boots fastboot and OOS just fine, but no recovery available. I then tried to flash stock recovery, but same issue appears. I then was able to use skipsoft toolkit to get stock recovery, but only by relocking then unlocking the bootloader. Everytime I tried to simply flash a recovery it appears to succeed, but will not boot to recovery. So skipsoft was able to fix the no recovery problem, but I am still unable to flash TWRP

Here is the issue. 3.5.2 has a different firmware than previous OOS versions. You will need a specific 3.5.2 modified TWRP. The link is here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3875375&d=1473889816
You can see that this is discussed on the oneplus forums here: https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/...ity-update-with-working-twrp-recovery.465353/
I ran into this same problem myself, and realized that this was the issue. You should be very careful because it could cause you some grief. Whatever you do don't lock your bootloader if you end up with a nonfunctional and non functional recovery.

I have the same issue i can flash all the recovery images but non of them worked i tried 1000 different methods and nothing works.. Getting a bit desperate is someone please able to help me got my new phone already broke it kinda..

Follow this guide and everything will be ok.

I know u fixed the problem but i think this is a general guide to fix your phone if you have this type of issue after flashing OOS 3.5.6 based roms!
i had the same issue yesterday with freedom os 1.7 (based on OOS 3.5.6) and OOS 3.5.6, here is how i fixed my phone:
- download http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=3875375&d=1473889816
-unzip it and put it on the desktop
-put your phone in fastboot (make sure you have unloked bootloader and installed all the drivers and adb on your pc)
-press shift and right mouse click on the desktop and hit open a new prompt window here
-write "fastboot boot twrp-3.0.2-19-oneplus3.img" and press enter, your phone should reboot in recovery (keep the prompt open)
-wipe dalvik/system/data/cache/internal storage go back and do format data
-reboot in bootloader(fastboot)
-write in the prompt "fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.0.2-19-oneplus3.img"
-unplug your phone and turn it off switching in fastboot with the volume buttons
-when it's powered off press power+volume down and chose recovery
-now you should boot and flash any rom in recovery (i suggest you to not try to flash any OOS 3.5.6 based roms)
i went back to OOS 3.2.6 but any other custom rom lshould be fine!

Recovery not working.

EDIT: Resolved by following Naman Bhalla's Unbrick Guide.
I'm on latest Freedom OS community build right now. I have this problem where my OP3 won't boot into recovery at all. Trying to do it just kills it and only a very long power button press is able to revive it.
I have tried flashing the recovery via fastboot but that also doesn't work. Is there a way out of it? I can't flash zips. Are there factory images I can flash via fastboot that can replace everything? I don't care about the data. Any help would be appreciated.

flash modified recovery via fastboot
Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using Tapatalk

I have tried Garak's TWRP and the other TWRP. It doesn't change anything. Are there factory images like Google provides which can be flashed using fastboot?

i have the same problem, flashed the previouse version of Oxygen OS. But now i can't get in to recovery.. when i flash it trough fastboot everything goes ok, but when i want to go into recovery the screen is blank and the device does nothing.

Maybe read the OP of FreedomOS rom.

I have read the OP of Freedom OS. I understand that obviously I overlooked something because of which I ended up where I am but I am looking for solutions here. I did not dirty flash the community build if that's what you mean.

You need the modified twrp version, the only way to recognize it, it has a mouse cursor in the middle of your screen.

Yea, I used exactly the same thing to get back my device working correctly again. I missed the crucial information that modified TWRP was required.

Assistance regarding a possible bricked op3

Hi guys, I searched around the forum before posting this so I apologize but I recently installed a new rom and possibly a wrong kernel with it. Afterwards, if I try to turn it on, it just shows the logo and then turns right off. I can't even go into recovery since it does the same. The only thing I can do is boot it into fastboot but I'm not sure where to go from here. I tried using a guide with no success.
Any words of wisdom?

reflash your recovery via fastboot, then boot into recovery and do a clean install
fastboot flash [recovery].img

I tried reflashing recovery but all it does is show the old rom logo that was used and then shuts down.

Hi,
Read carefully and try this guide:
forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/guide-mega-unbrick-guide-hard-bricked-t3405700

which rom did you flash? You need the correct twrp file for your bootloader.

That's the first place I tried. Anytime I hook-up my phone to the PC it shows up as OnePlus Android bootloader interface under Android phone and I can't seem to update the drivers..

Honor 7X Oreo Stock Recovery

Hi, I manually updated my honor 7x (BND AL10 INDIAN) to EMUI 8 following the other post in this forum and after that I went on to flash TWRP recovery again from another post "complete_twrp_ramdisk.img" so that I could take full Nand backups and what not. But Here's the problem, When I try to flash the stock recovery back "BND_RECOVERY_NOcheck" which I flashed during upgrading to EMUI 8, it says "size of image is large than target device"
I tried this using boot fastboot command "fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery.img" and also using the TWRP. It doesn't work either way. So I'm basically stuck with TWRP. The reason I want stock recovery is because
1. I can install OTA UPDATES on EMUI 8 (I actually got one)
2. I may want to just be on complete stock like locked bootloader, sock recovery etc...
Could any one help?? Maybe I need the right stock recovery file ?
BTW It's my first post ever so please go easy if I did any mistakes.

Could you share your twrp? Thanks!

"BND_RECOVERY_NOcheck" is nouget stock recovery.
Oreo update replaces all the partitions, including the recovery that you flashed in order to install the update.
The stock recovery can be extracted from "update.app" , the one inside the oreo "updateL22.zip"

Hi, I'm downloading that UPDATEL22.ZIP right now and Can I extract this with any unzip/unrar program? What will be the name of that recovery? is it going to be "recovery"? The thing is I've never extracted anything from a ROM so I have not idea.

you should already have the update.zip.
use same one you "manualy" installed.
winrar did not work for me but 7-zip did.
there is also rom extractor built into "multi-tool" and stand alone extractor around here some where.
I found it here
the name is just like the twrp you flashed and just like the partition that you flashed. (recovery_ramdisk.img)

Hi, Thanks for all your replies. After doing a bit of search, I managed to get it extracted on my android using zarchiver app and I copied the recovery_ramdisk.img from that BNDL22.ZIP and when I tried flashing it using the fastboot command "fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery.img" It went ok and It got installed but when I tried to boot into recovery, I got this screen "ERROR MODE" ATTENTION ETC.. I don't know where I'm going wrong?

I dont know.
The new way to boot to recovery was written in other thread as "hold both volume buttons & power button"
not sure if it was a problem with extraction or not, but attached is the recovery I extracted. do not have it installed. I dont even have oreo installed., I'm still pulling files together and reading the update-scripts and trying to convince myself if it is worth trying it.
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=262391
I have now jumped on board and did oreo conversion on L24, then flashed RR. I went and installed the oreo recovery, then back to this stock recovery. It worked fine for me.

Hey bro thefe are too many files there will it flash through fastboot or twrp and how to flash one by one pls help me

Hello all,
thanks for all the info in this thread.
I bricked my Honox 7x (BND-LC21) by trying to go Oreo.
The installation went halfway through, but now I can't complete (missing info howto flash bootloader / kernel) and I also can't go back as the partition layout has already changed to oreo style.
Steps done so far:
- unlocked boot loader
- installed twrp
- extract system image and recovery image from oreo update zip
getting the phone in fastboot mode i can successfully run
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery_ramdisk.img (i can also flash old recoveries this way, but none of them will successfully boot into recovery mode)
fastboot flash system system.img
either way, the system will not boot afterwards.
how do I manually flash bootloader / kernel on the oreo partition layout?
erecovery and hisuite won't recover my phone either...
Any hints appreciated

Can I flash just the stock recovery to my phone and if so is it the recover_ramdis.img, or do I need to flash them all. I'm on mostly stock bnd-l24. Unlocked bootloader TWRP and magisk for root. There's a new update and i wanted to flash stock recovery so I could update.

Redmi Note 8 Pro: Custom Recovery Won't Boot.

Hello!
This is my first time trying to install a custom recovery.
I tried installing TWRP with no success...
for some weird reason, it just won't boot into TWRP or anything else... not even OrangeFox.
Here is what i've done:
- Unlocked the bootloader using the official Xiaomi unlock tool (which took a whole week :/)
- Downloaded the official TWRP img from here: https://dl.twrp.me/begonia/twrp-3.6.0_9-0-begonia.img.html
- Flashed it using fastboot flash recovery twrp.img while the phone was in fastboot mode
The flash was successful according to the fastboot terminal, on the phone screen it was fine as well with no errors.
When trying to boot to recovery, the phone hangs on a black screen for a few seconds, and then restarts until i release the volume up button.
I have tried OrangeFox as well, and got the same result.
What you might ask:
- Was the phone rooted?
| No, it was not rooted.
- Any changes to the firmware?
| No, it was 100% stock, just with an unlocked bootloader.
- What region?
| Global.
- Have you tried older versions of TWRP?
| Yes, and i even tried OrangeFox.
- What is the MIUI / Android version?
| MIUI: 12.5.5.0 - Android: 11
- Did you boot back to MIUI after you exited fastboot?
| No, it turns out that MIUI will replace the recovery to stock if i boot back into it. so, no.
i tried powering it off and then accessing recovery using power button + volume up
- Have you tried multiple times?
| My headache says yes.
- HaVe yOu SeArcHed XdA aT alL???/??/?/
| Yes, i did. I found some people with the same issue, but these threads had no answers.
- Not enough information
| Tell me what you want to know please.
Thanks in advance!

just wondering, why didn’t it work with how I did it? It seems like it also installed a modified version of TWRP.

just wondering, why didn’t it work with how I did it? It seems like it also installed a modified version of TWRP.

Best one until now. Encryption not broken (It broke on almost other Twrp, your data will be encrypted and just can Sideload). You can see in Advanced some more things like Magisk Install (If you want to root), patch vbmeta, fstab files (for f2fs),...

I think because it's for Android 9. If it for A11, it will be 3.6.0_11 like that. If you want for more other stuff, join Telegram group. All new things update there.

Oh, so the modification were in place just to make it work on a current version of Android?
By the way, I’m planning on installing a custom rom as well.
I want pixel experience, it shouldn’t cause any problems, right?
(I don’t have an SD card, I want to do it from internal storage)

I eddited old post, read again.
And for PE+ and PPUI rom, these one are the most dangerous roms. But because you already in 12.5.x, your hardbrick chance will be 5%. Some reported that still have chance for hardbrick even follow guide on these roms.
You can follow their Flash guide on Telegram (Find rmn8p official or PE_begonia). And they have unbrick method incase bad things happen, better near PC while flash that.

You can use Salih-Sonar's TWRP if you want decryption.
Just search "begonia-oss" on google and download the "TWRP-MIUI 12.5" one.
Also if you plan on switching roms this recovery will not work (learned that the hard way)
To prevent stock rom replacement,delete "recovery-from-boot.p" inside /system or /vendor

Disable AVB 2.0.
Flash proper TWRP that is compatible with your MIUI/Android.
Then it should boot normally

Install it again, then use "fastboot reboot-recovery" to boot directly to twrp. then using the file manager find and delete /vendor/recovery-from-boot.p
