Hello! My brother just came back from china with a opo running color OS. He'd like to install some custom ROM. I tried the bootloader unlocking method i found in these forum and eventually tried to install latest twrp but once i finished the whole procedure and try to boot in recovery i only get the stock color OS recovery.
I used the chromium method with the slimmed platform tool and adb universal drivers

This is complete stock V15 ROM for E030U, The ROM includes stock V15 boot.img.
The purpose of this ROM is to allow anyone with E030U to upgrade their current version to the latest official ROM.
Or to fix a damaged device.
This ROM will be needed in the future if BLU decides to upgrade to android 6, I have no way of knowing if they are going to or not, BLU may choose not to upgrade this phone to android 6.
You don't have to install this ROM, you can continue using custom ROM, and or your current version, I am just making this ROM available to those that want it.
Note if you already unlocked your bootloader and have twrp installed, skip down to Installing ROM for those that already unlocked bootloader, and have twrp installed.
To install this ROM you need to unlock your bootloader
First download this ROM and twrp recovery
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347843233
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24369303960685084
place V15_ROM_E030U.zip on your micro sdcard
For this method to work you need to have adb/fastboot setup and working, you will loose all data.
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot oem unlock
fastboot reboot
setup up phone again enable adb
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery E030U_TWRP_recovery.img
fastboot reboot
adb reboot recovery
factory reset
back then install ROM
reboot system
first boot will take a long time.to install root
adb reboot recovery
install UPDATE-SuperSU.zip
reboot system
Installing ROM for those that already unlocked bootloader, and have twrp installed.
If you have already unlocked your bootloader and have twrp recovery installed, you only have to flash V15_ROM_E030U.zip, reboot wait for phone to fully reboot.
to install root
adb reboot recovery
install UPDATE-SuperSU.zip
reboot system
Took 17 minutes to boot, I have a lot of apps installed, your boot time will be different than mine, might be shorter or longer depending on amount of apps you have installed.
Those that install this rom must give it time to full boot, don't panic, phone will fully boot. after fully boot, then reboot to recovery and root by installing UPDATE-SuperSU.zip.

No, Xposed doesn't work correctly on stock rom.

One question, I need to do all this for reinstall the ROM on the stock one?
I just have the Energy X Plus with the V15 stock formware installed and want to have an backup ROM for reinstall it in case of any emergency with the phone. Mine have BLU_E030U_V15_GENERIC on it.
Can this be done without all the bootloader unlcock and everything else?
No, you can't backup or restore with a locked bootloader.

Hello everyone, I'll tell you what happened
First I was in CM13.1, then I flashed to oxygen OS 3.1.4 custom
(When I flash the ROM, without warning me the recovery was updated to the version TWRP 3.0.3-2TugaPower, previously being in a version inferior to 2.8)
After logging in to the new recovery, I noticed that the recovery version was not on the TWRP page, so I decided to flash the most recent version of TWRP (twrp-3.1.1-0-bacon.img), flashe it through Android sdk (Fastboot), everything went well the pc recognized me the OPO in fastboot Mode and flashe the recovery without problems, the problem came when I try to enter the new recovery the OPO does not enter the recovery stays in the OnePlus Logo.
(Before updating the recovery I tried to restate the backup of my previous rom CM13.1 but when I was going to restart it it stays in the OnePlus logo, and when I go to recovery I fixed that in the section of "Mount" system is not checked , Active but still the same, and when I return to recovery is removed.)
I ask you if you can give me ideas to be able to have recovery again and revive my OPO plz.

I guess you didn't read the OP of Oxygen Os correctly,he clearly mentioned that this 'Tuga Power Recovery' is patched to work with Oxygen Os's firmware and one should not flash any other recovery.Now,what you can do is this,
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-ikULjZZlloNHpOdVBrTzQxZzQ/view?usp=drive_web
> Download This file, install it somewhere and run Revert-2-CM.exe. Make sure you have fastboot drivers installed or it wont work.Avoid using any Antivirus program while doing this as they might give false alarms.After this you'll be restored to TWRP then you can flash any rom you want.The reason due to which you weren't able to find 'TugaPower Recovery' on TWRP page is because this is an Unofficial Recovery.
Question
What does the program do with the OPO?
If you are familiar with fastboot commands, this method should work. Had my OnePlus in the same situation last night messing around with Efidroid. Phone was bootlooping. Efidroid boot menu as well as recovery mode were both inaccessible. I had tried several other things but none worked for me. *CAUTION: this method did ERASE my userdata.* I downloaded a fastboot-able stock full firmware zip, then manually reflashed device. My beloved OnePlus is no longer my daily driver but still my fave device to experiment with so I just used COS 13.1 file. After full reboot, I downloaded and flashed official TWRP. Device is fully functional again, but without OOS installed.

It'll change your firmware and alter your recovery to a functional TWRP.You'll lose Oxygen Os after doing this.Though you can use this anytime when not being able to flash TWRP.
What should i do
Thanks a lot thanks to the method you told me my OPO has recovery again really thanks, but I have a question, I still in the TugaPower recovery, should I flash the stock recovery or the newest version of TWRP?
Because I do not know if flashing again the TWRP will happen the same
I'm running the stock at&t ROM with Android 6. I've successfully unlocked the Bootloader, and have taken S Off (paid SunShine!)
When I boot into Recovery Mode I cannot install from SD without getting a Signature Error. When I attempt to flash TWRP via ADB/Fastboot the bootloader will freeze at prompting the Recovery Mode (only way to overcome is to reflash stock rom).
Any ideas? Was hoping to install LineageOS as I read at&t won't be issuing an OTA for HTC as they've discontinued offering the brand.
Set download mode. Then flash twrp with fastboot command. Fastboot flash recovery twrp.img Should workout just fine.
Nope. Read initial post. After flashing handset hangs when Recovery Mode is selected

Perhaps its the version of TWRP you are trying to install? Maybe you might have to try an older version since your on 6.0....?
Also, I have the same AT&T device (unlocked bootloader, but S-ON) and am curious about installing custom bootloader/ROM on this device.
Let us know if/when your able to solve it!
So, I downloaded the Windroid Toolkit at https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2499926 but now I can't get passed the HTC boot screen. I installed Lineage OS, did Wipe Dalvik Cache, then installed Gapps. But no desktop after install. HELP!
Im new to all this, i followed a lot of tutorials to get to the recovery mode properly, i unlocked my device, installed twrp but when i tried to install any custom rom it said that it needed a android 10 firmware, so i searched for that and i got one, i used adb sideload to flash it and it said i needed to reboot my device, i did it but now i can't get to recovery mode, my device is still unlocked but i don't know what to do, can someone help me to get back to stock miui?
my device is a Xiaomi Mi 9 Lite
before unlocking i was in miui 12.5.1 based on Android 11
Unlocking a device's bootloader doesn't affect Android OS itself, but a Factory Reset silently is applied in background.
TWRP removes the Stock Recovery, bootloader gets instructed to run TWRP Recovery instead of Stock Recovery when booting into recovery mode.
My recommendation: Re-flash phone's Stock ROM to get rid off of all modifications you applied so far. Because phone is based on a Qualcomm chipset you may use QPST Flash Tool to do so.
Hello Guys
I was on a custom Android 12 rom. For some odd reason, my phone rebooted. Now i cant get into TWRP Recovery.
I can fastboot, but TWRP is for Android 11, and my Rom is Android 12.
What can i do to either flash stock Rom via CMD, or what can i do to get into TWRP?
Note i cant boot into my rom either
is there any way i can get into TWRP with an Android 12 Custom Rom?
TWRP is a GUI based recovery, a menu presented to you once you boot device into recovery mode, where you can select some actions from, it isn't part of Android OS itself, it doesn't depend on Android OS's version, AFAIK.
Sounds to me like you need to flash back to stock rom then use the xiaomi flash tool to set everything back to stock and restart the root process.
At this point I would advise against rooting android 12 as it is brand new and the root process is very unstable. Therefore I recommend only stock until twrp and magisk catch up.

okay so i managed to get into TWRP via fastboot. I have the stock OOS 11..
please tell me if i have the process right
Boot into TWRP
swipe to factory reset
wipe data/cache/davlik
Hit install and flash Stock OOS11
Flash latest TWRP
if that is correct cool
But after flashing latest Twrp, i cant boot back into twrp recovery. I again have to boot via fastboot.
I have flashed the TWRP boot image, but still nothing
