Has anyway found a way to Root the OnePlus One without having to flash a custom recovery with the new 33R OTA?
(yes I didn't check the CM recovery)
*But after I updated to the 33R update I still had root access intact, despite gaining root by boot and not having unlocked the bootloader under 33R. The problem was I did a factory reset and obviously it reflashed the newer bootloader and I lost root access (yes stupid)
This can no longer be done 'fastboot boot twrpimgname.img' with the 33R update ;
Aren't One Plus all about give you the power so why did they go ahead and block boot custom recovery that worked before ??
This is the under 33R OTA =
C:\adb>adb reboot bootloader
C:\adb>fastboot boot openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.1-bacon.img
downloading 'openrecovery-twrp-2.7.1.1-bacon.img'...
OKAY [ 0.402s]
booting...
FAILED (remote: Device not unlocked cannot boot)
finished. total time: 0.404s
Seems the have patched being able to boot a custom recovery without unlocking the boot loader
Yes I realized the the 'Update CM recovery' option but not after I updated to 33R (my oneplus was rooted without having to unlock the boot loader)
I did do a Nandriod backup of course before the 33R OTA.
The nandriod backup is rooted without having to unlock the bootloader via this ' fastboot boot twrpimgname.img '
Is their no way yet to boot a custom recovery without unlocking the boot loader ? Does one have to wait for a update twrp recovery to boot not flash ?
The question is: WHY?
the locked bootloader is locked because it allows only booting a signed recovery, if you use a custom-unsigned-by-manufacturer recovery there is no sense in keeping the bootloader locked.....
OnePlus knows that 90% of the users are rooting and unlocking, so there is no sense to keep it unlocked.... in case of necessity, you can relock the bootloader !!!
Anyway, you wrote in the wrong section !!!

What area is the right one, my bad.
Also asking if their is a way around the 33R to boot custom recovery
Why though?? You don't need to boot to a custom recovery. Just unlock the bootloader, it doesn't void your warranty. You have absolutely nothing to lose by doing it, and absolutely nothing to gain by leaving it locked.

Just an innocent wipe... and he only wants root.
Yeah and the right way to get root is to unlock your bootloader, install TWRP, and flash SuperSU.
Back stuff up, unlock bootloader, restore stuff. It's stupid to try to 'hack' into the world's easiest phone to root.

Pls help. my phone just stuck on the fastboot or 1+ booting. can't flash the img because it's locked!!!
How can I flash recovery under locked bootloader with fastboot?

You can't. The bootloader has to be unlocked to change recoveries.
This is why you don't use toolkits, you do things without thinking and then are unable to get yourself out of sticky situations.
NEVER relock bootloader without custom recovery installed AND rooted OS running!
if you do, you're unable to change tamper bit to unlock bootloader again.
that's why i never relock my bootloader! just to be safe.

I’m currently using NRT 2.1.4 and i’ve tried rooting my device a few times now and it never installs SuperSU and I can’t boot into TWRP as it shows the android laying down w/ the red exclamation, which is odd since it does go into TWRP during the process of rooting...
But I do not have TWRP installed because of the NRT process
Steps I have taken:
Unlock Bootloader
Flash stock + Unroot (Latest version MMB29Q)
Root & Custom Recovery
When I do the root step, it boots into bootloader, goes in a temporary twrp, then launches normally and says to update SuperSU binaries and check busybox, but neither SuperSU or busybox get added into my app list
It also sometimes says ADB recovery device not found on some attempts..
Is there any way for me to root my Nexus 5?
I have repeatedly flashed the stock with the newest version and still haven’t been able to root.
I have tried relocking the bootloader and unlocking it, but upon unlocking it again, it says that it's already unlocked...?
(Bootloader shows LOCK STATE - unlocked when trying to relock bootloader)
I have been able to root my Nexus 7 2013, but can't seem to get my Nexus 5 to work..
How about flashing TWRP via fastboot, then use the volume/power button to immediately boot into TWRP, and then flash supersu?
The bootloader will not relock?

Yeah, I don't know why, when I try to OEM lock and unlock it says it's already unlocked, which is odd.
But I did the TWRP via fastboot and installed SuperSU that way, thanks.
Glad it worked for your phone.
Help me to unlock bootloader and root
Hello Guys, I want to unlock the bootloader on my N5. My phone is in Android Ver 6.0.2 with Feb patch(Build Number MMB29Q). Please help me in doing so. Also i would root my device, i would prefer TWRP. Please anybody...
Boot the phone into fastboot, connect the phone to your computer, and use fastboot commands to unlock the bootloader, flash TWRP, and flash supersu for root.
Unlocking the bootloader will wipe the phone.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...ide-nexus-5-how-to-unlock-bootloader-t2507905
I was installed with Twrp and had rooted my oneplus 3.
I unticked root access in supersu.
Booted to bootloader and typed on my pc in command prompt ,"Fastboot oem lock"
This gave a confirmation on my device,I confirmed locking.
And after that my device did not booted up.I managed to get in bootloader again as I was not even able to open the recovery and unlocked the bootloader once again by this my device booted up.
I flashed stock recovery and repeated the relocking process,this time I was able to open recovery also but no able to boot up.
I again unlocked the bootloader and installed twrp back turned my device up.
Then I unchecked oem unlocking under developer options.
Relocked the bootloader once again.
And now I am stuck at bootloader,not able to unlock it even this time as I turned off oem unlocking.
Now I can only open bootloader.
Please help!

OEM locking a bootloader on a phone that was rooted is a big mistake.
You'll need to flash stock recovery, then flash the stock ROM via adb sideload.
Can be done with this tool http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/development/toolkit-oneplus-3-toolkit-unlock-t3398799
Thanks for reply

I can't access it as I am installed with TWRP Recovery as it is also not starting.
So I updated my FRD-L04 to the Nougat Beta, and while I was following the instructions and Flashesd the Update. For some reason I lost TWRP and cant boot into recovery, my bootloader is unlocked.....however in developer options OEM Unlock is grey out and i cant enable it.... So when ever i try to run a command through fastboot it says is not allow.... and when i try ti re-lock the bootloader i get FAILED (remote: root type is risk)... I try to roll back package from Huawei website but that also fails..... Now i dont know what to do.
I am in the same boat. Did the new beta via twrp. My usb debug was greyed out but i was able to to get it to turn on for short moments.
I have now lost twrp and now the phone wont even boot the the Android 7 beta os!
I have fastboot but when i try to fastboot flash system or cust they both fail. My bootloader is still unlocked tho.
edit: I downloaded the beta flashable zip and the update that is seperate. I took out the boot recovery cust and system from them and was able to flash them via fastboot. The phone now boots back to the android 7.0 beta. Phew!!!!!
Now to attempt downgrade to 6.0 adn get twrp back
You should look for a downgrade package
Since you have lost TWRP, I think you will have to reinstall it and root your device again.

I tried thta multiple times, but when i flash recovery it says its not allow, again i think is because i can enable oem unlock on settings

Like I mention on my initial post I have already tried the downgrade package..but it does not work. I can't enable oem unlock since is grayed out ... my boot loader is unlock and I can't use the phone but NFC Bluetooth etc does not work.. I even tried to flash the downgrade package recovery and boot image through fast boot but it's not allow since I can't enable oem unlock...
I'll research a bit and see If I can find something
I unlock the bootloader to install twrp and magisk, it's possible to lock the bootloader again without problems or the phone don't boot?

Locking you bootloader while TWRP and Magisk are installed will give you a guaranteed brick. Use a Fastboot Rom to return to stock, then you can lock it
If you want to keep TWRP and root, do not lock the bootloader. As the user mentioned above, you'll brick your device.
if i flash stock rom, than is that ok to lock the bootloader ? and how to lock it ?

If you flash a full stock rom then yes. All you do is use the fastboot rom we talked about earlier, let the phone boot up (don't bother completing the setup process, just let the phone boot up), restart to bootloader, and use the following command from the command prompt on your pc:
Fastboot oem lock
It will give you a menu on your pone asking if you want to lock the bootloader. Tell it yes. It will then lock the bootloader, factory reset the phone, and then boot up normally with the bootloader locked. It's that easy.
ok thanks.one question. is that important to flash the stock rom using fastboot only ? or can i flash it using twrp ?

I did it through twrp, worked just fine. Make sure to wipe beforehand though, don't want to risk bricking your phone

Doing it with a Fastboot Rom will guarantee that things needing wiped will get wiped. When returning to full stock I will always recommend the Fastboot Rom just because of how it completely handles everything it does flawlessly. I imagine flashing a full rom in TWRP will work but I have never tried to return to stock this way
i did try stock using twrp and it was perfect
I have unlocked bootloader but in the end NOT installed TWRP or root (just wanted to test if i can live without it and still be able to install without wiping everything)
Now I just want to lock bootloader again for selling device.
Can I do so with simple fastboot command "fastboot oem lock" without bricking phone?

Use msm download tool to be sure. It will however wipe all.

You can, but if you are selling the phone I would still use a fastboot rom just to be sure everything is wiped and no data sensitive to you is being sold along with the phone.
Thanks a lot for the shared info here. This is just what I need and had been asking myself for quite some time now.??
So never lock bootloader with twrp and magisk installed.
