[Q] How to revert back safely ? - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

There are people who have used fastboot method and hard bricked!
So which ways did you guys use to revert back ?
Flashing CM11s through Normal recovery wil work right !?
And whats new in Oxygen OS ? Firmware? Bootloader?
EDIT :-
FLASHED CM11S ZIP THROUGH TWRP AND THAT WORKS SUPER FINE, NO ISSUES!

Whoever hard-bricked while flashing the stock images was doing something wrong. The stock images are your best option for going back to stock.

No mobile data / Baseband Unknown [SOLVED]

Hi,
My mobile data no longer works. I've done a lot of research, tried every fix, to no avail. My WiFi works, it's only my mobile data.
Things I've tried:
Following this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/help/fix-brickloop-audio-fx-fc-efs-corrupt-t2879061
Completely reverting to stock
Flashing a stock, rooted 44S + radio files
Flashing ColorOS, and then flashing CM11S using this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/fix-people-corrupt-efs-mobile-data-t2836389
Sticking the SIM card in my Galaxy S3 to see if it works (spoiler: it does)
Restoring previous nandroid while data was working fine
Under ColorOS, I have a notification that says "The NV partition is invalid!". Just thought I'd mention that.
Stupid me didn't backup my EFS. No APNs, unknown IMEI, unknown baseband, etc.
I'm at a loss guys. I'd greatly appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Niko

You think it would be worth trying to get a new sim card from my carrier?
It isn't the SIM that's the problem, your EFS partition is corrupt.

If my EFS partition was corrupt, why does my Wifi work?
That's normal.

I FIXED IT! This is exactly what I did.
* Flash ColorOS from this post: https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/rom-official-4-3-coloros-v-2-0-0_beta.79203/
* Download and install OTA updates for ColorOS
* Flash back TWRP
* Flash 44S (Pre-Rooted)
* Boot up phone without SIM in (at this point I checked the settings and to my joy saw that baseband wasn't unknown
* Power down, insert SIM in, reboot

Hi, have the same issue. Did you flash the ColorOS thru a recovery or thru SDK Tools? and what recovery did you use to flash if you flashed with a recovery?

I flashed ColorOS in fastboot mode, so through SDK tools. I manually flashed every .img. In other words, I just followed the guide in the link I gave.

Sorry, bit of a noob here!
What is the EFS and how would I go about backing it up? I don't see any option for that in TWRP?

Could I ask you what 44S is? I get the feeling my issue with my phone might be the same as yours. You also did this for a Chinese OPO?

44S is short for XNPH44S, which is the latest build of CM11S (the stock firmware) for this phone.

Follow the instructions in section 8, just don't flash the userdata image and it won't touch your internal storage.

It should install the OTA without unlocking the bootloader, but if that's failing then unlocking the bootloader is the best option. Why don't you want to? There's no benefit to keeping it locked, and no detriment to unlocking it.
Transmitted via Bacon
Well...I just bought it yesterday... and I don't know if this is offical device or fake device...because the backside of the device...don't have the cyaanogen mod based logo....and it has some Chinese word behind the phone cover...so I'm not sure that is this a regular one plus one device or a china fake one plus one.

The Chinese OnePlus One isn't a fake, it's just the Chinese model.

so its all the same? root ,bootloader and all those hardware.
the only different thing are those word are write In Chinese?
The Chinese version is missing one LTE band, but that's the only hardware difference.
So..if I flash custom ROM or kernel...will it bootloop ? Cause of different hardware from the other one.
and can yoh tell me the use of bootloader? If unlocked in this device... and is it safe for me to flash custom stuff in this china 's OPO?

They're identical in hardware, apart from the one missing LTE band. They're completely compatible with each other, so you can flash anything as long as it's for the OnePlus One.
Transmitted via Bacon
Bro...first of all I wan to thank you for the friendly And helpful reply and so the hardware are same...just the LTE bandwidth are different right? so I can flash everything as long as it is compatible with OPO. But after unlock bootloader...can it be update using OTA? I wan to stay to stock as possible

That's right, and yes you'll still receive OTA updates with an unlocked bootloader, even with a custom recovery installed. Here's a few threads you might find useful:

Yes, as long as you're currently on the build that directly precedes the one that you're going to flash. They need to be flashed in order. For example, to go from 33R to 05Q it must be done in this order
33R > 38R > 44S > 05Q
You can't do this:
33R > 05Q

Yea...I know...now I'm on XNPH44S...and I wanted to updste to 05Q
Edit: I dowbloaded the zIP file from the oneplus forum...while I predd apply uodate...it say error with syslink.status 7...why is this happening?

For me, I will do this. Wipe /system and /cache and Dalvik/ART partition, then flash Calkulin's stock rooted ROM. Then you are on the latest ROM.

Sounds like you have a corrupt data partition. Is your bootloader unlocked?

Yes. Bootlooder is unlock. Any solution for me. I upgrade to 05Q also wont solve the problem

Yeah that was what I meant. Unfortunately I think you're going to need to wipe though because just installing the update doesn't fix the problem (corrupt data partition). I think you'll need to fully wipe your phone and start fresh. First you should copy any important photos, music, etc from your phone to your PC. Just connect your phone to your PC while you're in TWRP and you should be able to copy your media from the phone using Windows. Once you've done that, go to my guide thread and follow the instructions in section 8 to flash the stock images.
