hello,I want to flash LOS 14.1 for 6X.But my friend has adviced me to stay away from custom.ROMs for 6X as he bricked his 6X while flashing LOS.Also ,he wasmt able to restore the TWRP backup.Can anyone guide me correctly for installing LOS 14.1 on 6X?
Custom ROMs have some bugs, but this is a little bit exagerated If the steps mentioned in ROM OP are followed with caution, the risk to brick is almost unexisting. And overall, the fact of being unable to recover the TWRP backup is weird
Anyway, in LineageOS 14 thread you'll find a guide to flashing the ROM step by step, in first post obviously. Check that!

Just follow the steps. It's almost sure you won't brick your phone if the instructions are followed correctly.

You'll have to flash stock Cos13.1x(not cm13) from fastboot mode(not TWRP).

Unfortunately, I'm no magician.Please elaborate your problem specifically.
I was getting error 7 while flashing custom rom, but it was resolved. But now the phone goes to boot loop. I am using latest version of twrp
So I rebranded to bln-l22, installed Oreo and everything's good, but today I wanted to flash something but I discovered that for some reason I can't mount the /data and so I checked my file system and it was f2fs which is fine, so is there a fix for that ?
That's not an error man, it's because we don't have a fully working TWRP on Oreo yet. Actually there is only the TWRP that i assume you're using, the elemental rom TWRP by KingOfMezi.
At the moment, you have to flash supported files through fastboot. On an Oreo ROM/GSI, the architecture of our phone won't change, so the situation about TWRP is the same, but if I'm not wrong, at least GSIs can be rooted easily.

Yeah it works bro, as you'll know it only can't mount /data partition, but at least it allows to flash Magisk and ZIP/.img files.

Shashank you know more about this stuff than I do. Is the above guide safe because I don't want to put this out there if it puts peoples personal data at risk. I believe you can still encrypt the data but this stops it from being forced encrypted while installing the ROM? Not sure. Would like your feedback if possible. Thanks.
Guys please help,
After flashing pixel experience every time i loose my twrp and cant get it back. If I try something either it get stuck in boot loop or system gets destroyed. Please help me with the method so I can stick with twrp ever after installing pixel experience or any custom rom.

you should not try to relock the BL of the device, this will destroy the system, further add more details about this problem you are facing, where do you get this error, is your BL unlocked?

I wanted to root my phone using the xda tutorial, everything was going well until i flashed twrp. Minute 5:14 in the tutorial
Then as it is shown in the tutorial I went to recovery mode but nothing happened, it just goes into the oneplus logo and shows the bootloader advice and then goes back to the bootloader.
I used the latest version of everything and checked it was the right model.
How did you flash twrp without having twrp in the first place?
You can only "fastboot boot" it?
i did that, sorry if i'm not clear i've never rooted any phone before
we are going to need more info
what OS version are you on and model of phone (Global, 5G, Tmobo, or EU)
what version of twrp did you try to flash?
