Oneplus 5T No OS, Not recognised by Windows or Linux. - OnePlus 5T Questions & Answers

There's no OS on the phone and I can't get it to be seen on Windows or Linux even with the necessary drivers installed. I have TWRP on the phone but I can't seem to get anything recognised by anything, no OTG USB adapters work neither. ADB Sideload doesn't seem to work neither. Would somebody be able to help or have any ideas?

If the phone turns on at all but isn't detected by the PC then that is always a driver issue. Make sure to install the correct adb, fastboot and MSM ones, here is a nice guide on how to do it.
MSM might be what you need if your device still powers on, here is a small guide to it and this is a bigger, more extensive one. I've used the 2nd one myself on my 8P and it worked like a charm.

The PC still fails to recognise the Phone, even after all the drivers have been installed and all applications have been installed and used too. The MsmDownloadTool fails to detect my phone too.

Then it's either fully dead or the drivers aren't installed properly. But since you said you have TWRP I'm guessing the phone does turn on ... in which case we're back to drivers.
Check your device manager for yellow exclamation marks and double check that all the drivers are installed. Other than that I really don't know

It's good to know that there's still hope for the phone, I'll try again tomorrow on another PC and let you know how it goes. Thank you for your time and help so far.

Another thing to try is a different USB port (my front left one refuses to do adb commands while the front right one is fine lol) or a different cable. Some say don't use a USB 3 port, but I've had it working even with a USB 3 hub. So try every port/cable I guess.
Good luck

The other PC hasn't worked either. I might eventually just replace the USB-C port at some point and try again but I put the phone away for now.
Thank you very much for the help and your time.

[Q] Epic Fully Bricked???

Hello Everyone,
Captivate owner/user here, but had a question regarding a buddy's Epic. I have looked all over the forums, but have not found anyone else who has encountered this problem, so I apologize if this is a repeat thread. I believe my friend was running BakedSnack v1.6 with the DK28 modem. He went ahead and tried flashing ViperRom Trinity, and got stuck at the Samsung screen. I'm not familiar with flashing on this device, so I dont know the correct methods. I did however try to Odin his phone, and have failed to get my pc/odin to recognize his phone. I've tried every driver file I could find and nothing works. He has access to CWM so I hope it's not fully bricked. I figured his pc would recognize it, having has the drivers previously installed, but nothing. Any feedback is greatly appreciated, thanks.
Try a different cable and a different USB port on the computer. These phones can be picky with the cables.
You are not bricked if you can get to CWM.

Originally, we kept trying on my Captivate's cable to no luck. My pc would not even beep or see it. Then we tried another micro usb cable, and this time my pc saw it, but couldnt identify it, due to drivers im assuming. That was as close as I got unfortunately...

Tried that driver already, still no luck. At first i was thinking my pc wasn't installing the driver correctly until he installed it on his computer and had no luck as well. I installed it multiple times and uninstalled it, still never recognized the phone.
might want to install the android sdk, i actually remember having issues as well on my win7 pc until i did that. then look for adb in C:\Program Files\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools or that relative to where you install it.

In order to Odin the phone you MUST be in Download Mode. Turn the phone off the press the 1 key while pressing the Power key.
Appreciate the replies everyone. I did have the phone in download mode when trying to Odin but it failed to show the COM message indicating its been recognized. Download & CWM work & boot up, but the computers don't recognize the device and every driver I've tried installing has had no effect.
Sent from my Captivate
If no com on the screen your drivers not installed correctly, try unplugging and plugin the cable back in. Try different pc with WinXP if u can cuz Win7 is a real pain unless u doing the drivers right after windows installation. Hope this helps.

The same thing happens with my Epic and new roms...
To solve it, I pull the battery, replace the battery and boot with the Samsung "three finger salute"...
Just hold power+camera+volume down and it will boot direct to recovery. Just reboot from recovery and it should work OK.

Fully Bricked Galaxy Nexus! HELP!

Okay so my friend bricked his galaxy nexus (Gave it to me because he said its bricked) of course i accepted it lol. But i tried to fix it i did everything i could from reading forums i swear i have worked forever looking for a fix. It is completely unresponsive no download mode. no ADB connection because when it plugs into a computer it shows up as OMAP 4440 or something like that. i have tried all kinds of different drivers and i have tried on multiple computers (Xp, Windows7, even a mac) he said he was flashing the sdcard or something and unplugged it by accident. So i could understand that being a issue since the phone only has a internal sd card. Anyone know how to get it back? i havent seen a Jtag yet for it and i have a Jig for my Galaxy Sii Skyrocket but it doesnt work on the nexus (FYI to anyone out there the jig works on my dads samsung windows phone) HELP!
You tried different drivers? You should just use the most current ones for the phone. Did you try the new toolkit mskip posted? Did you isntall the SDK?

Thanks for the response i didnt use mskips i dont think. i have tried the galaxy nexus toolkit 6.0 or whatever but i have tried all kinds of drivers including the google official galaxy nexus i515 or something like that. it shows up as omap 4440 in app manager and disconnects and connects constantly then says device didnt install properly. what do you mean by the sdk? i cant find any way to access my phone. i think i tried something with sdk but im not sure
Yes i read up i did do that GNex Toolkit v6.0 and it wouldnt find my phone (Because of the omap 4440 disconnect and reconnect thing i believe.
First off, on't use a toolkit.
Second, when you plug it in, go to device manager, right click the "OMAP 4460" and click install driver. Either install PDANet or find the driver online and your phone should be able to be used in fastboot.
Finally, if your (Or your friends) phone was "Fully Bricked" it wouldn't be recognized by the computer, it wouldn't turn on, it would literally not be able to do anything except sit there, the fact that the computer sees it means that it is "Soft Bricked" which is much less serious.

I can get mine into CWM, but whenever I'm flashing a ROM, it reboots itself.
Install PDANet and when it asks for your phone, go into Task Manager and force close the process. This will keep the driver/program installed without needing your phone and it should then be seen in recovery.
Not working still :/
Thanks for highjacking my post twinky lol. i have seen the answer to yours around... google a little more.

Please Help!
My phone goes into boot loader and download mode however every time I flash Stock it finishes successfully and goes to the same google screen its always stuck on. I'm kinda a n00b so if anyone could help me with this (try to have a lot of detail) I would be grateful. Thanks
It sounds like what I did to my Galaxy Note before I bought my Nexus. When unrooting I overwrote my bootloader with a missed character through ADB. I tried everything, naked drivers, ODIN, all it would come up with was OMAP on the PC. I ended up having to return it to AT&T. Ask him if he was trying to root it the old way through ADB.

samiaziz, make sure you're wiping everything before flashing a stock rom. It wouldn't hurt to wipe system, cache and dalvik and then restart recovery (in advanced menu) and wipe again before flashing the stock rom.
Ok, as long as it shows up, it's still working
OMAP440 is the processor, which means, that is is working, but the bootloader is corrupt, or missing. I'd say it's corrupt (Flash-error)
The best way I've found, check this website: http://www.mobiletechvideos.com and see if they have a JTAG solution... (My JTAG device will arrive in a few weeks )
Even if they don't, send it in, and they'll figure out a way to do that I think they do some special offer, if you send it in for testing purposes...
But, other than that, there's no way I can help you. The firmware is completely fu**ed...
Tried That
I have already tried getting into recovery but that dosnt work. it takes me to the google splash screen
2 words: fastboot, linux.
sent from my i9250
Instead of JTAG-ing it, you could always try this. The maker of the Riffbox JTAG has come out with a solution for unbricking by reflashing the OMAP processor.. Aptly named OMAPFlash.
I've used it with success several times, but also had it fail on me. It can't hurt though, if your phone is already bricked.
If it's coming up with OMAP4460 (even briefly) when the phone is plugged into your computer without a battery, you are able to run the program. You just need to install the drivers for it.

[Q] Nexus stuck in boot loop. how get to install drivers?

Hey guys i've been looking through alot of google and can't seem to come up with anything so i turn to you awesome people.
My friend got a Galaxy Nexus GSM and he bought it with a boot loop problem. The phone is rooted and bootloader unlocked. I know because i can go to CWM recovery and also theres the unlock sign on it. However I can't get my computer to recognize it what so ever not even mount the storage. I figure i need to get the drivers to install but i need it to be recognized in device manager to do it through a rootkit. I tried to install the ADB drivers but also got no luck. I then tried to get to ODIN for it to work but ODIN won't recognize it either. Is there any way to install the drivers so i can put on a ROM on this. I think the person he bought it from formatted everything and messed it up. Is there anyway i can install the drivers without getting it to recognize first? I tried it in windows 7 and in windows 8. ANY HELP IS GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!

First off thanks so much for the reply and help it is very aprreciated!
Secondly i did come across this sticky however like i stated the phone is in a boot loop which means i cant get past the google logo in order to set it in developer mode and set usb-debugging neither can my computer recognize the phone when i plug it in, using the original cable i've tried every port there is on my desktop and laptop and nothing comes up in device manager. The phone is completely wiped and no OS is on it. Is there any way i can get a ROM on the phone?! This is one idea i have but i don't know if it'll work, I was thinking of buying a another working nexus install the drivers with that one and then i can get the bootloop one to get recognized? and return the new one. Will that work?

You need to get adb to work with your device, which you can do in a custom recovery. You don't need to have USB debugging enabled, you would if you were booting into the OS, but not the recovery.
You can get drivers setup while in recovery or fastboot just as easy as if you were booted into the OS, so no you don't need another device.

again, read the thread i gave you. if you're still asking this question, read it again.
Isn't that for the nexus 4? And I did pay attention to section A but it told me how to install the drivers which is the same way as every other tutorial I've looked at. My device doesn't show up on my computer and I can't install their way. As for the fastboot driver installation idk what their talking about. I followed the instructions though and got no results. I didn't do the whole thing cause for part C I need the original rom for galaxy nexus and also I don't know if the platform tools zip is for my device so I haven't gone through with it just yet. I'm sorry it's not my phone so I don't want to mess it up even further. I've read about the part with it being in recovery mode with the volume up + power option but I'm at work and haven't tried that yet but I doubt that will work since the phone is clean. Can u please be a little more specific there's 99 pages that I have to go through for that sticky. If u can't it's ok I'll just have to go through it next week. Once again thanks for pointing me in the right direction and giving me some hope.

You reboot the device into bootloader/fastboot mode, then you connect the USB, and there's no sign at all that a USB device has been installed?
Remove all drivers, reboot, and start over. Get a tool for Windows that allows you to really dig on all of the installed drivers and remove all Nexus devices drivers permanently. Rant: Umm, Windows sucks bad. Thanks Linus!

Well, maybe you could try omapflash. If you can't get several PCs to see the device, then something's wrong with the USB port?

I did a little looking up about omapflash and from what i can see so far there needs to be drivers installed first. I may be wrong but i have to do some more research on it and i dont have a linux pc my laptop is down thanks to a power pin connector pin being pulled out. and i dont know if the device port is good or bad i can get a charge but that doesnt mean its fine. What if i get another device and install drivers via that and then try to get it to recognize? would that work?

To really make sure that the issue isn't on the host side but rather the USB port on the device? Yeah, that would rule it out.
Also, I just remembered: you're not using the USB ports of your PC case are you? Make sure you're using the motherboards' own USB ports.

Windows 8 64-bit...drivers install...stuck
even I am stuck on the same roadblock. have my GNex stuck on the google logo. can access recovery mode though (TWRP 2.5.0.0). Now i just upgraded my PC to Windows 8 64-bit and cant seem to be able to install drivers.
the problem is that almost all the methods require:
1. GNex to be connected with USB Debugging ON
2. install ADB Drivers
3. get into Fastboot or Recovery
4. install Bootloader Drivers
since i cant get past the Google logo on my GNex...i cant perform Steps 1 & 2.
and if i directly try to install the bootloader drivers the OS returns an error (yellow exclamation next to the installed driver)
Added pictures to help explain better.
Thnx in advance.

I am in big mess! Please help!!

I was doing some experiment with DriveDroid and now I am in big mess.
I think I messed up with drivedroid settings and I was not able to see my phone (oneplus 3 rooted LOS 15.1 ) on my computers.
I have tried different computers but all cant detect my phone.
I have tried drivedroid wizard, different usb systems, different usb settings and no luck.
I have tried uninstalling the drivedroid and still no luck.
The phone was going in charging mode only. Its was not going to MTP mode so I can see the phone internal storage in computer
I have tried to do factory reset also but no luck.
Now I mistakenly wiped data partition also and now the phone is with
No OS
No USB detection on phone while in TWRP
No OTG detection
No any ROM.zip file in phone memory.
When I am on TWRP and connect my phone in computer I am seeing same error message and cant see my phone interenal storage.
Now what to do? Any way to flash ROM ?
I am in big mess, and I dont want to spend money on new phone as of now
I hope someone will be my angle and suggest me something to recover and save me from this mess...

I am not able to follow this as phone is not even coming in USB mode. So its actually soft bricked because can go to twrp and fastboot mode and booting up without OS but USB is not able to detect on my computer.
now the service center guys saying I need to change the motherboard which I dont think is the issue, mother board is not going gone for sure as I can boot up in twrp and fastboot mode. its just may be the usb host controller gone.
Cant decide if I should go ahead with mother board replacement at cost of 10k INR ( phone cost was 28K INR) .

If you use the Method 2 of the Unbrick Guide, you don't need normal adb/usb mode recognition. Follow that guide scrupulously and step by step. Don't skip any and don't rush.

I even tried that but somehow it is not even recognized as QHUSB_BULK device.
believe me I have tried all things to revive the phone but its not hard brick in my opinion, it can boot into twrp but the when I connect the phone in computer it shows the error message I shown as attachment in my first post.
yes, I have tried 2 different computers and few usb cables.

Your phone need not be hardbricked to use the Guide. It will work even on a normal perfectly working phone. If your phone is not recognised while following the Guide, it only means one of two things: either it is a hardware fault or you are not following the Guide properly.

tried to follow the unbrick guide on windows 10 but phone is not seen as QSBULK device in device manager.
I am going to try on windows 7 as few post said that windows 7 would be better for unbricking than windows 10.
finger crossed, right now flashing windows 7 live iso on USB.
so finally I am declaring my op3 as hardware failure as one of my other phone (yureka) easily identified as 9008 mode in my computer but my op3 is not. so all drivers are installed correctly but somehow my op3's usb hub is failed.
i guess time to move on..
thank you everyone for spending time to help me. it really is supportive and encouraging...

Got 6T yesterday.... .. Yay!!
Couldnt find other phone competative in the price range.
Time to change the xda signature...
Although I bought 6T now and am kind of happy with that, but I am still missing my oneplus 3 and want to experiment on getting it revived.
By any chance someone can help me answering my doubts.. I would be greatful..
1. Is it ok to replace oneplus3's motherboard with oneplus 3t motherboard ? If by any chance i get any resell op3 or op3t in dirt cheap price I want to know if its ok to use 3T's motherboard.
2. Is there any way I can turn on the wifi from within TWRP and so I can connect to phone via adb over wifi/tcpip ??
Thank you all in advance.

Computer not recognizing phone

I'm having a weird issue with my Pixel 2 XL. I recently purchased Pixel 3 and used the adapter to transfer apps, etc from my Pixel 2 to the Pixel 3. It worked as intended.
However, after that happened, the Pixel 2 XL is not being recognized by my computer. I plug it in and it only charges and there's no notification to change usb mode. It also won't charge using the included charger that came with the phone.
My end goal is to unroot and relock bootloader so i can sell it but obviously I'm stuck. I've read it may be a USB 3.0 issue so I've ordered a 2.0 cable and it should be here in a couple days but looking for any suggestions. Below is what I've tried:
* Multiple computers and different cables
* USB debugging is on and default USB is set to file transfer.
* I've cleared media storage and external storage cache per Google product forums.

Your likely right. Getting a 2.0 USB A to USB C cable is probably the solution. Many have had this issue. Including myself. There's even been times when a cable that did work, didn't work the next day. Then a week latter, it will. Go figure! :fingers-crossed:

I appreciate the response as it makes me feel a little bit better about the situation and if it's a cable issue, I'll make sure to update the post.

Also, check your device manager on your pc to make sure the driver is correct :good:

This. I had a similar issue and ended up uninstalling the drivers in device manager, then plugging the phone back in so the drivers could be downloaded again. Worked like a charm.

So I got in the new USB 2.0 cable and computer still doesn't recognize the phone. I updated drivers and that didn't work either. I also uninstalled drivers but seeing as the computer isn't recognizing phone, it's not installing drivers when the phone is plugged back in.
The phone works except there's an update pending but it won't install, which I'm assuming it's do to the fact the bootloader is unlocked.
Is there anyway to install March security update using just twrp and downloading files to my phone and see if that'll work?

Bummer man! You've got a stubborn one, or a bad port. You can download the OTA from here....
https://developers.google.com/android/ota
Then flash it in twrp. However, remember to flash twrp again after the update is finished, then let the phone boot up, then go back to twrp and flash root and custom kernel if you use one :good:

I really appreciate the response. Did that and it finally allowed me to connect. Got it all back to stock and my computer is finally recognizing the phone.
The original charger is now also working. Thank you again!
