Soft bricked OPO - Stuck in Fastboot mode - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi. I dropped by OPO recently and had to replace the screen + digitizer myself. After doing it, i decided to wipe my phone and re-install Android again. I did a factory reset, flashed a custom rom, gapps and a kernel and i am not able to boot into the OS. When I reboot the device or power it on, I always end up in the Fastboot mode. I am able to get into recovery, but no matter what I flash, whenever I hit reboot into system after flashing, the phone goes back to Fastboot mode.
When in Fastboot mode, I'm able to flash stock images of 44S , but any reboot doesn't take me to Android, it keeps pushing me back to Fashboot. Flashed multiple TWRP versions, tried restoring to 44S/38R through fastboot, but none of them work. Any restart takes the phone back to Fastboot. Any ideas on how this could be fixed?
Any help is much appreciated.

[Q] Stuck in bootloop, recover files

Hello.
Today my oneplus one was suddenly stuck in bootloop. This happened in the middle of the day when I rebooted my phone. My phone was running the latest update that came OTA (stock lollipop). Whenever I boot my phone it starts loading and suddenly a Chrome (browser) window appears for 1 second and tries to load a website. Afterwards my lock screen pop ups for 1 seconds and it starts to reboot. During the lockscreen I tried to unlock my phone as soon as possible, but it just reboots. (Any ideas about this weird problem?)
I CAN boot it in recovery mode by holding volume-down button and power button.
I CAN boot it in fastboot mode by holding volume-up button and power button.
Perhaps a factory reset will do the trick, but I don't have a backup of my files (because this happened so suddenly without me trying to flash/customize my phone). My first priority is recovering my files, because most solutions will end up in me losing every file. Unfortunately I've found little possibility to do this during the bootloop problem. I've tried to flash TWRP because it could make backups of my phone. I tried it through ADB/Fastboot, but it failed because my device is not unlocked (I can't go to settings and put my phone in developer mode and debugging mode). So I've read somewhere that unlocking my phone (bootloader?) through ADB will wipe my phone, which is exactly what I don't want.
Also I've tried this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/help/fix-brickloop-audio-fx-fc-efs-corrupt-t2879061
But It also failed because my device was not unlocked.
Did I miss some steps somewhere or did I read something wrong?
Hopefully anybody has an idea to either fix the bootloop without losing my data, or finding a way to recover my files before wiping the phone.
Thank you.

Unfortunately you might be stuck in a catch-22 situation here. In order to access the files you'd need to unlock the bootloader, but in doing so you'd lose those files. Without usb debugging already enabled I can't see a way out of this.
Decided to unlock the bootloader through ADB. (bye bye data)
After I've unlocked it, I've tried installing TWRP.
Some minor problems occured but I can finally boot into TWRP through volume-down button + power button.
I've decided to download the stock ROM i've found on the OPO forums.
Couldn't acces my phone through normal methods, so I had to use ADB to push the files into my phone.
Installing the file through TWRP, wiped cache/dalvik and installed super user before rebooting.
After rebooting my phone is stuck on the boot screen now. (This also happened before I installed TWRP on my phone)
I've also tried this method: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-return-opo-to-100-stock-t2826541
Also no succes. I'm stuck in the bootscreen where it says 'cyanogen'.
EDIT: Managed to fix it eventually through: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/help/fix-brickloop-audio-fx-fc-efs-corrupt-t2879061 (part 2) writing the command in TWRP.
Phone finally boots normally again.

Exactly what did you flash? Full filename please. No errors occurred?

Hopefully the stock cyanogen OS.
First I've tried to flash cyanogenmod 12 through TWRP (file is found here: https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/cm12s-yng1tas17l-installation-guide-review-change-log.304615/)
Afterwards I was still stuck in bootscreen, so I've looked for another solution.
Which made me find this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-return-opo-to-100-stock-t2826541
After flashing this file (probably the same thing) the problem still remained.
Eventually after multiple wipes/factory resets (which did not solve the problem) I've entered the command in TWRP and after reboot it finally worked again.
So I basically flashed my phone twice, once through TWRPS and the other through the batch file (perhaps ADB?).
Also no errors occured which stopped the flashing and commands. Did have to reinstall TWRP and reboot instantly in it by holding the volume down button multiple times. This doesnt happen anymore though.
Only had to install google apps for CM12 (gapps), for which I used TWRP in recovery mode.
Currently reinstalling most apps on my phone and no problems yet.

Recovery Flash not working

Hello, I bought a OnePlus one (came with CM11 - 4.4.4) and followed the standard steps to root it
1) unlock bootloader - successful, phone got factory reset, checked the status using fastboot
2) Flash custom recovery (TWRP) using fastboot - always "okay" message
3) The phone DOES NOT boot to recovery after this - it gets stuck at the 1+ logo, or remains stuck for a few seconds and goes to normal reboot. -I've tried using fastboot to reboot phone while holding down volume button
Please help! i've look this problem up and haven't found a solution.
I tried 2.7.0.0, and the latest 2.8.5.1, along with 2.8.6.0, along with trying to use the one plus tool kit. Using the toolkit, even flashing the stock recovery, then booting it didn't work.
after you flash recovery in fastboot, do not issue the fastboot reboot command. you need to manually power off the phone by keeping the power button pressed till it powers off

As the other posted mentioned you have to fastboot flash twrp (2.8.6.0) then power off phone and use volume down + power button combo to get to recovery. Its flashing but if you boot to OS it will be overwritten by CM recovery hence booting directly will alleviate that
Boot into os, enable dev options by tapping the build number a bunch of times in settings-about phone section, go back and go into settings-developer options, make sure "update cyanogen recovery" is unchecked. Flash recovery again, and like people have said, power off the phone and use volume down and power buttons together to boot into recovery.
Thanks for the quick replies guys. I have tried all the above s and none of them have worked
Should I try unlocking the bootloader again?
I recommend going to this guide and following it closely: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guides-bacon-timmaaas-how-to-guides-t2839471
As for which version of TWRP to use, I recommend this version: https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24391638059059048

Factory reset, now stuck at TWRP, can't access fastboot and rescue

Ive been running KangVIP with no problems, however I got some adware which refused to go away, so I attempted to factory reset via the phones menu. It then ended up stuck at the TWRP screen. This has happened before so next I tried to restore a previous backup...not successful. I can't access fastboot and rescue to flash the official recovery.
Anyone got any help? Is there a guide to flashing the stock rom or have I borked my phone?
You can not shut down the device and connect it via USB to a PC and boot while holding volume down button into fastboot mode?
Well then you have ruined your phone.
I'm OP, was unable to get into my usual account last night. I'm not sure how, but holding volume up, down and power seemed to kick start it back to life and I'm back running KangVIP. I don't think I'll be resetting it again for a very long time.

I'm not sure whether it was luck or not, but all I did was to go into TWRP and then chose the Mount option, unmounted everything, then went to Reboot and chose Bootloader - that got me back to fastboot where I was able to flash the stock recovery, do a factory reset and get my phone back.
i have similar problem one friend use kingroot change to tpwr. now i try restore frimware but fastboot on screen say unloked on red text but commands not alowed.
and android os not have R/W /system only can r/W on tpwr i try use file explorer remove king root but no boot
who to clean rom? for update.

Oneplus One stuck in recovery

Event 1 : My oneplus one got stuck within TWRP recovery, have tried flashing other custom ROMs but while rebooting to system it rebooted back to TWRP recovery every time. Tried to reboot the phone to bootloader mode, even that resulted to rebooting to TWRP.
Event 2 : After this I've replaced the TWRP recovery with stock recovery, then connected to my computer through adb sideload via the OTA update option in stock recovery menu. But since I do not have the OTA update file can not test either it will boot or not. Here I require the whole zip file not just the new update portion.
Now, is there anyway to get to twrp recovery again or boot the stock rom in the phone.
Any form of help is much appreciated...

I guess I know what caused the rebooting of twrp everytime.
It's because of the vol - button is getting pressed
automatically. Just open the back over and clean the vol button strips then reattach the back cover properly,your issue of twrp rebooting should be solved.
And you can flash the twrp using fastboot then flash any rom you want to.
The issue got figured out..thanks a lot sir..your effort is much appreciated..

Phone currently stuck in fast boot screen, any help?

Hi guys,
I need a bit of help in regards to my oneplus 7 pro 5g edition (GM1920) I previously attempted to root the phone as always and have accidentally wiped the system via twrp, i am now currently stuck in fastboot mode and it appears that the phone has now wiped the factory recovery as every time i attempt to go into it via the fastboot screen or reflash twrp, it shows the 1+ logo for a split second and reboots to fastboot, usually with previous devices reflashing twrp would have been enough but it seems that there is nothing i can do at the moment, any help or advice would be much appreciated.
Thank you
SOLVED: Turns out it was rather simple, the phone wasn't flashing to the correct partition and wouldn't let me change, but randomly after a few tries it finally let me change to the correct partition and everything now works like a charm again.

So if you are flashing TWRP through fastboot, it does the same and reboots to fastboot? Are you able to flash twrp successfully? If yes try power+volume down to go into twrp. Then change the slot
in fastboot use your vol buttons and scroll to RECOVERY and click power button after you flash TWRP
Hi guys,
Thank you for the suggestions but i manged to finally figure it out after hours of racking my brain, turns out it was a very simple solution, for some reason the phone was trying to flash to the wrong partition and wouldn't let me change partition, then randomly out of nowhere it did, so i was finally able to reinstall the stock rom and twrp and am now fully rooted with no issued at all.
Thanks again.
