I tried to get rid of root by going into the supersu app and clicking the uninstall option. It then rebooted, but it went into a bootloop. I already wiped multiple times but nothing happened.
Could it be because of xposed being installed?
Thanks.
Was stock recovery used to perform the factory reset?

No, I used TWRP to do it. v2.8.7.0 I think.
Try with stock recovery.

How would I uninstall TWRP recovery?
Flash the recovery.img file that is included with the stock rom. Fastboot flash recovery recovery.img.

Hmm, still boot loops. Am I forced to just reflash the fctory image?
Since it still bootloops, I recommend flashing back to a completely stock ROM to make sure the phone still functions properly.

Sorry for this, but could you also help me install nonsystemless root? systemless causes trouble with layers so it would be very nice if you could help.
Thanks
Which rom is on the phone? For stock LP, flash supersu from twrp. Many custom mm ROMs are prerooted.

Wait the nonsystemless root is gotten by just flashing it? I always thought it was the other way.
Thanks so so so much for your help!

I rooted my phone and used firewater to get S-OFF (a lifesaver), then unfortunately installed a TWRP recovery that has completely messed up the device. It wouldn't respond at all and I was lucky enough to flash CWM when I got it back to bootloader. Now, at least I do have a recovery to work from.
I can't do a factory reset (just goes back to recovery), can't sideload a new ROM, and tried to flash a new boot.img and system.img from here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2706233
None of these have worked and I'm at a loss in terms of what else I can do to get the phone working again. Any ideas????

Stock recovery, boot and hboot are in there. I would start with the boot, then recovery, and then factory reset.

Do you mean restoring a TWRP backup? It won't touch your recovery or your bootloader. Just make sure you wipe properly (system, data, cache, dalvik cache) before restoring.

Don't use a toolkit, they're nothing but trouble and inevitably cause problems. It's perfectly safe to flash the cm-12.0-YNG1TAS2I3 stock images and you'll find detailed instructions in my guide thread:

Or you can use my re-packaged factory images. It's all automated using a flash-all.bat similar to Nexus devices. Literally a one-click option (with the manual option available too)

I think @EddyOS's script does relock the bootloader, which you definitely don't want because once relocked sometimes it won't unlock again. He'll need to confirm that though. It definitely flashes the stock recovery but you can flash TWRP again.

I'm running 5.8.1 stock rom Franco Kernel. The app says it can, is this true?
Also is there a stock 5.1.8 boot.img file that has TWRP installed into it that can be flashed by Francos app.
Any info appreciated
What you need to do exactly?

The kennels can be flashed while system is running because it's a different partition and when it flashes, it keeps TWRP and magisk in tact.

I need to flash 5.1.8 boot.img, one that has TWRP in it.
I DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO A PC so adb and fastboot are out.
And I have stock recovery, can't flash from there ?
That's what's up. ?

You need custom recovery or fastboot, otherwise, impossible, as far as I know.

Have you asked Franco if this is possible? You can flash kernels while booted, so I don't see a reason you couldn't also flash recovery. The kernel, recovery, and magisk are all in the boot partition together.
However, I have no idea if the kernel flashers (EXKM can also do it) can flash a full boot.img properly.

Hi, just tried to do this by flashing the old zip trough TWRP, but i always end to boot in recovery, maybe i'm doing something wrong...?
I tried this today and happened the same, i guess you have to clean flash to downgrade.
Also a tip, if you got stuck in recovery and yet cannot decrypt (doesn't ask for password/pin in TWRP), boot to fastboot mode, use the command "fastboot boot <the img file name for twrp>" so that you can boot directly to the img file from your PC. This way it will ask for your password.

You might try flashing again when you get booted back to TWRP. That way, you can get 9.01 flashed to both slots if it's not already. No guarantees, but it's worth a try.

I tried this way too but keep getting booted back to TWRP. Even did a wipe of the caches, system and data (not internal storage).
Is there anything I can still try?

Keyboard continuously crash 'cause the new gesture system, that have longer animations and the recent app one loses the vibration feedback and it' s also a lot confusing.
Anyway you can read the same things in the ota's thread, unfortunately are widespread problems

Can you link me to the exact fastboot rom you flashed? Some said I have to use the downgrade zip from OnePlus to Oreo 5.1.1 then only upgrade to 9.0.1. The OP of the fastboot rom said the rom is not for downgrading.
Did you downgrade to Oreo first or directly flash the 9.0.1 fastboot rom?

I've wiped everything, then downgraded to Pie directly, but I was in a slightly different situation (only fastboot available).
Just to be sure flash the Oreo one and then upgrade to Pie.
With the whole A/B partition layout it should be easier to downgrade too right?
To go back to Stock from Resurrection using the all in one tool can I just flash the fastboot stock ROM without doing anything special? I tried to do it via the msm tool but got stuck. I did search for this answer but had no luck.

Yes it work with just flashing fastboot stock rom.
I have not done it but I am sure flashing stock rom via twrp followed by twrp zip (and magisk,if desired) should bring you back to stock. Just to be sure, flash twice to ensure you covered both a/b slots

If you have PC, you can install TWRP via fastboot easily. I've never used the fastboot rom before, so I don't know about it.
