Hi iv been testing this for a while and iv gotta say ..... its amazing the vega can do something the xoom cannot .... fastboot boot. Witch for a rom dev saves a lot of time
Ok this is relatively safe but is dev only thing so use with a little cation :-D as always dont blame me for a brick

[GUIDE]
From recovery
1) extract the .zip from below and allow the fastboot binary to be executes
2) reboot to recovery
3) format boot partition in recovery
4) reboot (now your device will drop to fastboot)
5) it will do this every boot until l boot.img is restored
From NVflash
1) extract the .zip from below and allow the fastboot binary to be executes
2) boot into APX mode
2) format boot partition with nvflash ( ./nvflash --bl bootloader.bin --format_partition 7 -go )
3) (now your device will drop to fastboot)
4) it will do this every boot until l boot.img is restored
[OTHER INFO]
Seeing as the vega reports as a different vendor we have to specify this in the fastboot command some examples can be found below
./fastboot -i 0x955 -b 0x10000000 boot zImage ramdisk

There is a video of this now in the main post
What is the advantage of this fastboot for a developer?
I remember getting that prompt when I switched from USB Slave to USB Host on Paul's Modaco ROM. I was quite clueless (I opened a help thread both here and in Modaco) and only re-flashing the stock ROM helped me any.
Nice work!
Does this allow you to push e.g. kernel images from my pc to boot on-the-fly or does the images need to be on the device already?
Sorry if that seems like a dumb question
FastBoot means that the device boots off a ROM image on your PC, instead of a burnt ROM. This has no advantage to non-devs (other then possibly brick protection, but they are pretty unbrickable as is).
To be clear: This does not make it boot "faster" and it probably has no use for you. Move along
Just checking. This'll be really useful in testing all of my broken kernel builds
how exacly does this work. Ive tried building roms in the past for my defy but got fed up with bricking it trying to bring the defy back to life was a real pain in the ass.
I would like to have a go with the vega if this makes it simpler.
Does it mean i can boot an image that is on my pc whilst leaving the internal image the same?
and can i simply re boot and have every thing as it was befor?
thanks in advange for any help!
I've extracted the advent .exe file to see if it'd be possible to re-flash the full stock ROM without having to use Windows. I got successful in reaching Fastboot mode, and when I execute ./fastboot I see a command which says "flashall", which would flash "boot.img", recovery and system.img. Would that be enough to boot safely? I see as well the possibility to execute an "update" command. If I converted the adventupdate.exe to adventupdate.zip, would said command flash the contents (aka the ROM?).
I may be saying foolish things, but I am curious about this.
So it has become prudent to me that I update this info to the general public within the home of our One SV. Most of you may already be aware of the recent OTA Enhancement that the k2_cl has been receiving or already received. I have just learned after trying some modifications within my device that some commands were changed. I have not been able to figure out what all commands have been changed however one that I am aware of and the very one I constantly use as a safety hazard on my own device is booting vice flashing while in fastboot usb. Originally you all may have known the command to be fastboot boot recovery recovery.img (as an example). Its common for people to flash being the command: fastboot flash recovery recovery.img. As for me I ALWAYS BOOT before I flash to insure it's integrity while operating on my device. Thank of it as running within a virtual window to dumb this down for the less understanding individuals. Back on track, this command has been changed. fastboot boot boot boot.img (as an example) no longer works. They changed the command to: fastboot -c "lge.kcal=0|0|0|x" boot customrecovery.img. That code functions respectively no different than as we would use to type: fastboot boot recovery customrecovery.img. Why they made such changes I am not sure. So be cautious of these changes. I made this thread to all who may come to learn about other changes with other commands and if so then please come back here and shar this knowledge as it will be VERY USEFUL TO US ALL. Thanks.
EDIT:
"fastboot boot" command DOESN'T work with the recent 4.1.2 OTA enhancement so you need to SPECIFY a kernel commandline to use "fastboot boot" command.
A list of commands with a quick summary on them.
/boot
This is the boot partition of your Android device, as the name suggests. It includes the android kernel and the ramdisk. The device will not boot without this partition. Wiping this partition from recovery should only be done if absolutely required and once done, the device must NOT be rebooted before installing a new one, which can be done by installing a ROM that includes a /boot partition.
/system
As the name suggests, this partition contains the entire Android OS, other than the kernel and the ramdisk. This includes the Android GUI and all the system applications that come pre-installed on the device. Wiping this partition will remove Android from the device without rendering it unbootable, and you will still be able to put the phone into recovery or bootloader mode to install a new ROM.
/recovery
This is specially designed for backup. The recovery partition can be considered as an alternative boot partition, that lets the device boot into a recovery console for performing advanced recovery and maintenance operations on it.
/data
Again as the name suggest, it is called userdata partition. This partition contains the user’s data like your contacts, sms, settings and all android applications that you have installed. While you are doing factory reset on your device, this partition will wipe out, Then your device will be in the state, when you use for he first time, or the way it was after the last official or custom ROM installation.
/cache
I hope you have some idea about cache, as you are expert on internet browsing. This is the partition where Android stores frequently accessed data and app components. Wiping the cache doesn’t effect your personal data but simply gets rid of the existing data there, which gets automatically rebuilt as you continue using the device.
/misc
This partition contains miscellaneous system settings in form of on/off switches. These settings may include CID (Carrier or Region ID), USB configuration and certain hardware settings etc. This is an important partition and if it is corrupt or missing, several of the device’s features will will not function normally.

Actually, the command I gave is also correct (it's based on optional command) . But thanks for the input. The command has always been the command which I used. However, since that OTA I can not use it anymore.

OK, so I'm a bit confused here....What would be the proper command line to actually flash custom recovery....I keep getting an unknown error message using fast flash recovery custom recovery.img...
Rename the recovery.img to recovery.img.

I need to warranty a phone but I need to turn it back to stock. I am using an older version of TWRP, I am guessing here but do I just download the factory image and flash it and I am done? It seems like everything I get when searching is geared towards the Pixel XL and using ADB rather than TWRP.
Thanks in advance.
Beacuse I part time as an internet troll, I have to chastise you for not reading threw this forum, because well that's why it's there, but hey we all can't use our Brian's all the time, but yes download the factory image for your phone Marlin for Pixel XL and Sailfish for Pixel unzip the file, make sure you have lastest usb drivers installed and click the flash all.bat.

I'm not a good developer so I cannot answer you that question, but on Google official page, it is recommended to use fastboot or adb to flash factory images...

Because recovery and boot are sort of intermingled now. You would be writing over twrp at the same time you are trying to use it to flash.
Use the flashall bat file. If you want to save data edit out the -w from the bat file.

I am on linux let me just get that out of the way.
So I used adb to fastboot the factory image but nothing happens
the file is in downloads and in the fastboot file. So I type cd Downloads, cd fastboot, fastboot sailfish-nmf260 it all looks good and you can tell adm is working but nothing happens on the phone.
I am current only able to get the phone into fastboot mode I dont know what I messed up but I can no longer even boot into TWRP.
I must have succesfully removed the twrp recovery because no i get the no command screen. If I hold power and press up I can get into the stock android recovery. Is there a way to install the factory image still? Or is the process still the same and I need to adb fastboot? I might need to just do the abd fastboot on a windows computer at work tomorrow.

Download the factory image you want here. Unzip the entire contents to the same folder fastboot is located in. Then boot the phone to the bootloader, then plug it in to you computer. Then, if you're using Linux, double click the flash-all.sh file that got unzipped to your fastboot folder. If you're using a Windows computer, double click on the flash-all. bat file instead of the flash-all.sh file. Then sit back and wait. That's about all there is to it. One note. If you want to save your data, open the script you're going to use in a text editor and remove the -w toward the end of the script (remember to save your changes). If you want the phone wiped clean and like new again, just leave it as is.

On the phone nothing happens. It appears that all I am getting is a list of options but none of the options seem to be working either.
I might add that the fastboot folder I am using was downloaded back when I installed twrp is it possible my fastboot file doesnt have the correct files to get the job done?

Basically yes. But with linux you cant just double click. So in terminal I typed "cd Download, cd fastboot, fastboot flash-all.sh" that command will attempt to launch that file.
I feel like the issue is with adb on my laptop I tried making sure its updated but i got nothing so ill try to do it on a work computer when I get free time.
Its pretty crappy right now because I am without a phone but heck I pet the dog today during lunch instead of reading the news feed off my phone so I guess the dog is happy lol.

I don't think you can flash it with fastboot. In Windows, at the command prompt, you just type flash-all.bat and the batch file will run. It contains all the necessary fastboot commands. Perhaps that's where you're going wrong. Try just typing flash-all.sh. Leave the fastboot out.

Try this for sailfish (fix accordingly if marlin, username of course is common sense, if still confused, you shouldn't be using linux)
I build and use debian sid
Code:
cd /home/username/Downloads
tar xvf sailfish-opr3.170623.008-factory-bb8bb3a3.zip -C /home/username
cd /home/username/sailfish-opr3.170623.008
tar xvf image-sailfish-opr3.170623.008.zip
cd /home/username/sailfish-opr3.170623.008
./flash-all.sh
If you need the latest adb/fastboot name it something like google.sh
Code:
#!/bin/bash
wget https://dl.google.com/android/repository/platform-tools-latest-linux.zip
unzip \platform-tools-latest-linux.zip
cp platform-tools/adb /usr/bin/adb

Sorry I wish I could try this. I had access to a windows computer at work and I was able to get everything done. After doing it at work I have a feeling I wasnt placing the files in the correct folder together to get it to start the update. It can be hard doing this on something other than windows for a dummy like me because most of the tutorials for things like this seem to be windows oriented. Regardless its done. I couldnt lock the boot loader on the windows computer though oddly but no big deal because I can do it on my laptop.
Thanks for all the help guys.
Things are changing with the advent of project treble and seamless updates. OnePlus will no longer release ROMs flashable via stock recovery (with twrp is possible but not recommended). The updates will be done on the slot not used for example if you are using slot a the update will be installed on slot b and the slot b will be set as default. If you brick and you are in bootloop how you can restore the rom? You can't with Stock ROM you have, because the zip can be only installed via Update Engine, so what can you do? Flash a stock rom via fastboot. I have extracted all images from the stock zip and i have made a new zip with the Fastboot ROM with a flash-all.bat included. This will work only if your bootloader is unlocked. This will erase all your data and will wipe your internal storage.
HOW TO FLASH
Download the zip;
Unpack the zip in a folder;
Reboot the OnePlus 6 in fastboot mode (Power and volume-);
Connect the OnePlus 6 to PC;
Run flash-all.bat flasher you need;
Wait until the process end;
The phone will automatically reboot.
FLASHER ADVANCED GUIDE
flash-all-partitions-fastboot.bat : this .bat will flash all possible partitions through fastboot (Except persist) , there are some criticals partitions that can't be flashed through fastboot;
flash-only-persist.bat : this .bat will flash only persist partition in fastboot mode (This is good for people that have problems with sensor);
flash-all-partitions-recovery-criticals.bat : this .bat will boot the twrp and will flash criticals partitions, use this carefully;
flash-system-boot-vendor.bat : this .bat is the same of older flash-all.bat and so it will flash only vendor, system and boot;
flash-all-partitions.bat : this .bat will run flash-all-partitions-fastboot.bat , then flash-only-persist.bat and then flash-all-partitions-recovery-criticals.bat .
Now usually the one needed is only the first "flash-all-partitions-fastboot.bat" but if you are badly bricked i recommend to use flash-all-partitions.bat .

REMEMBER
"Invalid sparce file format at header magic" is not an error, you need to wait a bit when you see that string, just wait.
These ROMs can't be used to update or downgrade your phone but just to restore your phone, so don't use them to come back to oreo or to update from oreo to pie.
If you want to rebrand your phone from HydrogenOS to OxygenOS you can follow this guide: Rebrand Guide
If you want you can use also my tool to flash Factory Images, unlock bootloader, flash twrp or to understand if the device is recognized: https://toolaio.tk/

So how do we install the OTA update when we have twrp installed?..
Always through fastboot?...
will this erase internal storage?

No, with Update Engine. With project treble the updates are installed from an Android app called Update Engine in the slot that you are not using, when you reboot the device after the update, the slot will be changed and you will have the update. The stock recovery is there only to wipe your memory if needed and there is no longer the recovery partition but the recovery is included in the boot partition.

so it pretty much puts it back to factory settings. So even with us being rooted and having a custom recovery, will we be able to get OTA's or will we have to wipe our phones on every update?

I restored it via the unofficial twrp by flashing the stock zip in recovery, but it was a pain because the new modded version didn't support mtp and the original was extremely slow and didn't load with anything on the internal storage. It was a painful process with repeated failures and if I had this method, would've saved a lot of frustration. I will definitely try next time I brick, which I do a lot....

Maybe I'll just take one for the team and intentionally brick to try for sure

Maybe in a week or so because I have a cold at the moment. I could probably do a video on my PC with no audio.
So we can just take the OTA when it drops like stock users?..
And how about root?
After any update we flash root through twrp?..
Sory for so.many questions but im on OP3T now and im planning to upgrade to OP6...
This A/B think is totally new for me..
Trying to clear things out...

If you make an update you will lose root and twrp, but if you run magisk manager before reboot after the update you can keep the root.
I forget to say that the latest TWRP have the support for Update Engine
Zip updated

Did you:
1 have unlocked bootloader
2 tyoe fastboot devices and get response
did unlock and flash twrp, did a try to install a clear system, now system wont boot and twrp crash at start after some second
looks like a bug at twrp, cause no system on phone

Well you should be able to get to bootloader and fastboot devices
Have you tried that?

Sure that you have entered the correct path into cmd? If so and it still doesn't work, maybe follow the instructions of this post: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=76632484&postcount=82, at least type the shown commands into cmd. These are, what the bat file includes, but now "manually".
If it still doesn't work you maybe have to install another adb version (like shown in the linked post).
But before, try it once more with @mauronofrio method and make sure that
- your phone is in fastboot mode
- the zip is unzipped to one new folder, which only includes the unzipped files
- and that you entered the correct path via cmd (if you are on windows).
- and wait... some files flashing need a while
- while that, don´t touch the display of the op6 (even not, when it is shown lock.... unlock bootloader - just wait)
thx Flying Fox, you push me to right way
this is inside bat:
flash-all.bat
Code:
@echo off
title Mauronofrio flashall :P
for %%f in (""CurrentDIR.bat"") DO @SET currDir_=%%~df%%~pf
echo.
echo Current Directory = %currDir_%
SET ANDROID_PRODUCT_OUT=%currDir_%
pause
cant see commands here for fastboot
at this script is only setup for ANDROID_PRODUCT_OUT
will be nice, to update script and include this code too:

androidfilehost indicates its 2gb file...but downloadable file is 3.08gb...cant understand

thank you！ but one question to ask：just work on realme？
Hi @fire7ly those are some nice Windows and Unix shell scripts that you created! Congratulations!
I am always happy if I can give some inspiration to other talented programmers with my script
I didn't even know you were such a good programmer!
One question: in the file rescue.sh why do you call both commands below?
Bash:
./fastboot erase userdata
./fastboot -w
I thought fastboot -w erases both userdata and cache (and format if supported by partition type) ?
Another question: In Windows batch script is it possible to write one single if not exist; else statement rather than two separate if statements? Or it's not possible? (file FUM.bat)
Bash:
if exist .\tmp\files\boot.img ( echo boot.img is present )
if not exist .\tmp\files\boot.img (@echo [91m boot.img is not present[0m )
Which programming language do you prefer? Windows batch script or Unix shell script?
Thanks! Keep up the great work!

hey Sir !
I'm Happy to see Your reply, How Are You??
As you say in rescue.sh
I'm use
Bash:
./fastboot erase userdata
to erase old data from device to it will not conflict or it will fresh boot for device.
and from
Bash:
./fastboot -w
I`m Use to Wipe userdata + cache And Device Will Boot As New Device... In Short I'm use it to Avoid Any Looping Condition During Device Booting.
In FUM.bat I`m Use 2 condition To find if my assumed file is there or not like if anything missing it will try to pull that file from device again..
As you prefer if not exist; else here we need to specify any file name with location of that file like vbmeta.img or boot.img or recovery.img, I`m write it like this if not exist; else it will error coz it got confused where is that file which its need to find is present or not.
if exist it says file present move on to next if not exist it kick compiler or program to that Piece of code where we pull that file in pulling files section.. once done it will check again..
Also I like linux most of time but windows is more Gui Friendly and most of people use windows so im make my script on windows and rescue.sh made by my friend. I like bash More than Windows Thoo.
I will Try to implement it If it works Then it Will Some Line Short And more Understandable Thanks for your Suggestion & Support me
