[Q] Factory Reset Won't Work - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I try to do a full factory reset (settings > backup and reset > full factory reset) and after following the steps suggested everywhere
(Wipe Cache partition, wipe data, wipe media) I come back to a phone that is exactly the same except not having my contacts, messages, or pictures. Apps are still there and fully functiong. Please help!

Is your bootloader unlocked? Do you have a custom recovery installed?

Phone completely stock. Nonrooted and CM recovery

If you really want to do a factory reset, unlock the bootloader, that automatically factory resets the phone.

So is my experience normal?

No it isn't, but I can't explain why the normal method for a factory reset wouldn't be working.

Okay. By rooting will I unlock the boot loader? Or are they different things

You CANT root before unlocking the bootloader...
PS: They are 2 completely different things, and there's no downsides to unlocking the bootloader (unless you own an Xperia ), and it VERY easy.
Put your phone in bootloader mode (Power off then Vol+ & Power on) then using fastboot execute the command:
fastboot oem unlock

They're very different things. Unlocking the bootloader must come first though. Unlocking the bootloader opens the device so you can flash to partitions that you normally wouldn't be able to (for example, flashing a custom recovery). Rooting gives you root access, this is somewhat like having administrator privileges in Windows. For complete and detailed instructions head over to my guide thread here:

[Q] Bootloop, fastboot works, recovery doesn't

Hey guys, currently stuck in a bootloop....I think it's a hardware problem so I'm currently waiting on an RMA.
I was rooted and unlocked...tried flashing everything via fastboot to stock but it keeps boot looping on the Google logo and I can't access recovery.
Any recommendations/things to try? If nothing works I'd at least like to reset the tamper flag before I RMA it.
Thanks!
Ed
did you flash stock recovery in fastboot?
what are the returns in command prompt when you flash the img files?

Yep, I followed someone's steps, tried the whole process a couple times and I couldn't get it working.
Not sure, I'm sorry I don't have access to my phone right now...I believe it ran everything without error but it won't go through to recovery. I'll try it again and post my results. Any recommendations for the time-being or is it tough to say?

Can you get into the bootloader and flash a stock image in fastboot?
yes try again from fastboot and let us know.
Could be memory failure which means RMA, and I think someone posted on the forum that google does not care if the tamper flag is not reset.

Tried that...and no dice. Do you think google will cover it despite the tamper flag being triggered? I relocked the bootloader but can't get in to reset the tamper flag (unless there's a way to do that without recovery)
Why can't you access stock recovery? Do you see the Android laying on his back after you try to boot to recovery? If so, hold Volume Up + Volume Down until it boots into stock recovery.
If that works for you, perform a factory reset + cache wipe from stock recovery after fastboot flashing factory images. Should clear up any boot loops so long as your memory isn't corrupted...
Edit: Yes you're going to want to do all that with an UNLOCKED boot loader...
Code:
fastboot OEM unlock

If you relocked the BL you cannot reset the tampered flag or flash a stock image, first you flash the image, reset the flag and then you lock the BL
BTW if you used the Bootunlocker.zip it both resets the flag and locks the bootloader.

Haha yea I understand that, I meant I can't get into recovery to reset the tamperflag. After messing with it for a while I gave up and figured I'd at least relock the bootloader in case they check for that.
Not sure why I can't get into recovery RoyJ that's why I'm here lol. I click 'recovery' and the bootloop continues.

Oneplus has no OS installed.

Hello all
I have a baaaaad situation going on!
I have been trying to delete me superuser in twrp, but something terrible happened....
1) When i boot my 1+ it just stays black.
2) When i boot into fastboot it just shows a linux penguin logo and noting else.
3) When i go to twrp i can do multiple things like adb sideload, and i can push a rom to my phone.
-> but everytime i do this and try to install it, it just fails and says i have no OS installed when i want to reboot.
I've contacted support from 1+ but nothing yet so far...
Anyone here who can help me? (i'm open for teamviewer and even want to pay the person who can fix my Oneplus)
Hoping one of you can help me!
Greetz
Michel
(I have a picture of the logo but i can't post i due to beiing a new member here )
You can't communicate with your phone through fastboot and ADB? Oh ****...
How did you manage to replace the bootloader with a Linux penguin? When you go into fast boot and type does fast boot devices does the pc recognize the phone?

The thing is, i was rooting my device and after i've done that my rootchecker told me the root was incomplete...
So smart as i was i started a complete unroot, to do it all over again...
In this process my device got stuck... so i booted in TWRP recovery to uninstall everything from the root over there..
Here i managed to delete my complete OS.... 8-|
After reading every tutorial and guide i figured out that on my phone my developper otions were NOT enabled...
So i contacted the oneplus support, who even remotely connected to my computer from Beijing to Belgium.. but never the less my problem was not solved and i was still stuck on the f*cking Linux logo...
So i started searching for a flashable ROM (in this case i found Pacman Nightly Signed) to flash on my phone through command on Windows.
After many hours and even more attempts i managed to go in adb en flash it by the sideload way.
So not through "adb push romname.zip /sdcard...." but by "adb sideload romname.zip /sdcard...."
And the pacman rom started to install and booted my phone to language selection...
PS: i cried :cyclops:
Glad to hear that you fixed your phone. I wouldn't contact oneplus support for things like this, chances are you'll get a reply back from xda faster as well as searching on your own to resolve the issue.

:crying:So basically I have the same issue, I tried to install Oxygen OS and managed to remove my Entire operating system and format my entire sdcard so I've managed to push a few possible ROMs to my device and they won't install and it won't let me install any mof them and now I've lost the charge on my device.
Please tell me theirs something I can do to fix this.:crying:

More info required. What recovery do you have installed? Exactly what error are you getting when flashing the ROMs? You probably just need to flash the right firmware first.

I'm using TWRP
When I did manage to push some files to the device and tried to install them it failed instantly. I tried Cyan Hacker V2 the new Oxygen os and cm-11 and one of my backups, but all of them had the same issue. I can only vaguely remember the command which I think said 'partitions updating' then under the completed tab at the top of the screen in Red text it said failed.
This isn't my main concern anymore the device has died and won't charge so I can't get it to boot into fast boot or Recovery all its done when connected to the charger is light up with a black screen, vibrate then turn off, it repetats that a couple of times then it goes off again and no life at all, if I leave it of the charger for bit and try plugging it in again I get the same flashing black screen but again no charge.

Yep, it's almost definitely a case of not having flashed the right firmware after coming from Oxygen. Leave it plugged in for eight hours, don't touch it in that time, then try to power it on again.

Okay I'll leave it through the day. After I get it to charge how will I get an OS onto it and how will I ensure that its got the right firmware? And if it all goes caput is this a valid reason for a renewed device from oneplus?

If you want to flash a Lollipop ROM the best way is to first perform a full wipe (system, data, cache, dalvik cache) in TWRP, then flash this firmware:
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B98G0KTJwnBFdVgxZ0x5RzNJSE0/edit?usp=docslist_api
Then flash this modem:
https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B98G0KTJwnBFU0Z1TUIyVE50WW8/edit?usp=docslist_api
Then go to the reboot menu and reboot back to recovery. Then flash whatever Lollipop ROM you want to use, and reboot your phone. If you still have no success after doing that then you'll need to try to flash the stock images with fastboot, I have a download and instructions in section 8 of my guide thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2839471
If that gets your phone booting then you can go ahead and try the above steps again to flash a Lollipop ROM.
No, this wouldn't be covered by warranty. Unlocking the bootloader and rooting this device doesn't void the warranty but they've stated that if you brick the phone while flashing (or the like) then it isn't covered. This is a case of user error, you didn't ensure that you had the correct firmware before flashing.

okay
thank you for all your help hopefully I'll be posting later with some good news
So I have gained access to the device in both TRWP and fastboot mode but I have encountered more problems,
Theirs is no OS, but their is a recovery the logical thing here would be boot it in fast boot and push files to the device and install those using the recovery easy right!!
no the boot loader is locked and so I can't flash anything I've downloaded about 2 or 3 tools kits to get it unlocked, when I use them the device reboots but wont load into fastboot, I can get it to with some tampering it doesn't have an exact method
any ideas guys?

Why did you lock your bootloader? You need to go here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/development/mod-reset-unlock-tamper-bit-t2820912
Flash that through TWRP and your bootloader will be unlocked again.
PS. You can't push files to the device in fastboot mode, only adb can push files and adb doesn't work in fastboot mode. Once you've unlocked your bootloader again you'll need to flash the stock images with fastboot. Download and instructions are in section 8 of my guide thread:

I have similar issues at the moment. I tried to flash over Oxygen OS and it kept failing. Upon factory wiping the current OS to put CM 12 Nightly, I accidentally deleted all of my data. Now 54,xxx MB is on my phone, meaning it wiped all internal memory, the system is only 20MB and data is 6MB. I tried to plug in my phone to fast boot mode, and my computer wouldn't read it. I did all I could to maybe get it to read, and not a single thing popped up. I do not believe my bootloader is locked, but there could be a possibility that it could. Any suggestions to get an OS pushed over through ADB or Fastboot??

Its a pretty easy fix your going to be able to avoid all of the unlocking boot loader issues I had.
To begin with when your try an turn the device on is the screen flashing black?

Forgot my unlock PIN

Hello, I have a
Nexus 5, bootloader unlocked on kitkat 4.4
I somehow forgot my new 4 digit unlock PIN i put right before I went to sleep.
I can't connect to my phone with the USB, doesn't show any files. Neither it has usb debbuging on.
I've entered PIN over 500 times but i still dont have "Forgot PIN/Password/Pascode" button.
I CAN'T , in no possible way wipe my data because the items i have there are crucial for me.
If there is nothing I can do then ill go hang myself.
Thanks
If your bootloader is unlocked you can flash a custom recovery, then pull your data from there using adb.
If your data is so crucial, maybe next time the best thing to do is keep backups and/or don't solely keep it on a mobile device.

USB Debugging is completely irrelevant. It is ONLY used for adb while in Android. NOT fastboot while in the bootloader or adb while in recovery.

In a custom recovery you have access to the entire /system and /data partitions once you simply mount them.
1. Boot into the bootloader
2. Flash a custom recovery using fastboot
3. Boot into recovery
From there on you can either use adb pull to retrieve files in your Internal Storage, pull app data if you know how, or remove the set lockscreen PIN/whatever itself.

You won't flash to "no recovery". There is a stock recovery (you can only really wipe data/cache from it hence the need for a custom one).
Technically you voided warranty when you unlocked the bootloader and triggered it's tamper flag, but it is easy to reset and relock after you finish doing whatever you want to do and reflash factory images.

Ok, thanks for helping me. I feel much calmer now
Ok, i've got into the recovery. How do i erase the lock pin?
Nevermind, used this link to solve the problem
http://www.androidfanclub.net/2014/03/reset-android-pattern-lock-password-without-erasing-data.html
I'm not certain of any conditions that you need to have fulfilled in the past but try this. On any computer go to https://www.google.com/android/devicemanager login using the Google account that is used for the device and you should be able to see your device. Click on "Lock" and you get:
New lock screen
Your current lock screen will be replaced with a password lock. Don't use your Google account password.
New Password
Confirm password
Recovery message (optional)
That gets sent to the N5 as the new lock screen and hopefully problem solved.

In TWRP you can set a password lock on the recovery screen. This should prevent anyone from accessing the factory reset option from the recovery menu.
As it relates to tracking, Google device manager can be used for that.

You can turn usb debugging off then password protect your settings apk, that will prevent anyone from turning usb debugging back on, this will prevent them flashing it because fastboot won't recognize the device.
I will warn you though. If you go through all of this to prevent anyone from flashing your phone and then your phone randomly softbricks, you'll have to flash the device to fix it, with all the things you're doing to prevent flashing, you wouldn't be able to connect to PC to fix the device. You'll get your own foot caught in your own trap. Be warned.

Relocked bootloader with oem unlocking off. No recovery no factory reset data encrypt

I relocked the bootloader on my HTC U11 with the oem unlocking off. When the phone rebooted it was encrypted and I cannot do a data format in fastboot. I have no recovery and cannot do a factory reset. I have tried to flash TRWP again but failed and tried flashing RUU again but failed. I have 13 attempts at a lock screen code. Any help please.

Thank you for your suggestions. I have tried that but it fails I think because the oem unlocking is off. My recovery is either corrupt of deleted so I can't do a factory reset. I've been in touch with HTC and for a fee they will try and re-flash the rom.
