[Q] One S Stuck in bootloop after installing Viper 3.0.0

Hi Guys,
Yesterday I installed Viper One S 3.0.0 on my Phone.
Installation went ok. Used TWRP by the way.
After the message of succesful installation i rebooted the Phone.
Now it's stuck in a bootloop. I can get into recovery, but there I cannot do anything. It doesn't seem to see the Internal storage, so restoring the backup I made of the stock ROM is also not possible.
Anyone an idea how to get this ROM to work, or how I can get back to the Stock firmware? I kinda need this Phone.
And does anyone know if the SD card is wiped? Or just not visible?
Any help would be much appriciated.:good::good::good:

Thanks for the update. I Will do that tonight.
Also got the tip from Bilal to flash the Boor.img via fastboot and then try if it boots.
Will get back to you!

Hi,
I had the same problem, i had installed the viper rom twice (second time without wiping) and then it worked. I also had the 'no ds card found' error. This fixed it for me:
1) Use the All-in-One-Kit and flash your recovery back to stock
2) Boot into the bootloader and choose to "clear storage" and afterwards to reset to factory defaults.
3) Go back to the all-in-one-kit and flash a CWM recovery version again.
4) Reboot into recovery (CWM). Your /sdcard should now be mounted and visible.

Thanks for the update. I have the Toolkit, but which button is for the Stock Recovery?

Ok so I'm a bit further. I Flashed an Original Recovery I found in the thread of the Toolkit. That didn't boot.
But afterwards I flashed the TWRP again. Now I see the SD card again.
Only problem now is to send a ROM to the SD card for installation.
ADB is not working properly on my WIndows 7 X64 machine.
Anybody any ideas on that??

TWRP has a mount option. Connect your device to your computer then press MOUNT from twrp. That should solve your problem.

You can reboot your phone in recovery, in TWRP select mount, wait a minute, and then Windows 8 should 'see' your device

Hi Guys,
Got everything working again.
USB connected to my WIN8 machine after all, and i was able to copy the Viper 3.1.0 rom to the SD.
After 2 times installation (1 with TWRP Wipe, and then 1 with Wipe from Aroma installer) it worked.
1st install worked until I rebooted. Then bootloop again.
2nd time wipe from Aroma and all is working fine now.
Everybody thank you for helping. Much appriciated.:good::good::good::good::good:

Nice going! goed gedaan!

Just 1 little thing I found. Maybe someone knows how to fix it.
Every now and then the Phone just reboots. Then it works fine for a while. Is this a known issue?
Besides that I'm loving this ROM. It's fast, customizable it just works great!! Respect to the Developer!!

Only adb sideload available

Hi,
Can someone help me. I just made trwp mode wipe de idol 3 5.5 6045K, after reboot it stuk on initial screen.
I enter on recovery mode and the only way the mobile is recognized do use "adb" commands is on "adb sideload". If I try to install from this mode like "adb sideload package.zip" it fails on signature authentication (with several packages). I try to use alcatel Mobile Upgrade Q 5.0.0 but also fails at 20% when it check the latest version with message " you mobile already have latest version".
Can some one help me to install a new rom?
THANKS !!
Regards.
MM

ok if you flashed twrp make sure it was the right version for your phone.
if you flash the 4.7 version of twrp on the 5.5 you will not load into recovery and vice versa.
if that isnt the issue please explain further.
i am a newbie to this rom stuff .
also you should be able to place the rom on the sd card and flash it using twrp.

Hi DallasCZ.
Thank you for your suggestions.
Yes. I wipe system and data.
This is 6045K dual sim, no support for sdcard. Both positions on slot are for sim cards.
My problem are since the device are on initial power up, when I select power and vol+ at same time device becomes on a basic menu and on that stage I´m not able to enter adb commands. The only choice is enter on "adb sideload" but it fail in signature verification.
Any Ideas to workaround this issue?
Regards.

Thank You for help
i have a basic twrp menu, to wipe, install (form sd or from internal memory), and adb sideload.
Since device is not recognized to upload anything on internal memory and SD card is not available on this version (6045k dual dim). The only chance is use adb sideload, but it fails to uplodad firmware on signature authentication.
There is any way to upload something to internal memory in this stage? There is any firmware available that pass on adb sideload signature authentication. There is any tool to "format" device any install the basic and from there use Alcatel Mobile upgrade?
Again, Thanks for help me.
Regards.
MM

Ok you might try a micro usb thumb drive or a otg cable or card reader to get the files you need.
Newegg sells a usb/micro usb thumb drive that might work.
Not 100% but twrp should treat the drive just like a sd card.
If not you will have to flash a rom using a pc with the proper drivers.
If not detected by pc you will need more help.
Good luck.

HELP with installing Cyanogenmod

Hello, I've been trying to install Cyanogenmod 12 but every time Rom Manager does nothing when I flash installation or with other options I can't go into recovery mode since it just reboots every time!
I have Sony Xperia T with Android 4.3 and I need newer version to install Pokemon Go!
I have tried many guides so pls don't post me links but just write me step by step what to do or tell me what I do wrong!
1. I have unlocked bootloader on my phone, my camera still works despite what the guide said. When I go into SERVICE in phone it says it's unlocked.
2. At this point I tried installing TWRP but to my finding I need to root my phone! Wtf there was nothing about this in the guides... But okay, I look in Internet and install KingRoot that automatically unlocks the root. Now I can install apps that require root.
3. I install Twrp, it ask me if I wanna install Bombox or something like that but I press no, I go into backup and whenever I try to do it, it does nothing. I restart the app and this time I try installation without any backup. I select the zip file of CM for my phone, select to wipe the data etc and start. But it does nothing and just freezes :/
4. I try Rom Manager, I install it try to do backup but it tells me to install something but later it says my device is unsupported?! I try installing just the Rom zip but again nothing...
Whenever I try to go into recovery mode through any apps it just restarts my phone!
Pls help I don't know what to do...

Have you installed TWRP with the TWRP manager?

I have TWRP Manager installed, I didn't install TWRP with this before since I thought it is the same thing?!
I just tried to install it, I selected my phone then the version to download and at the end when it tries to flash I get an error that flashing was unsuccessful and it's either because I have this installed or another error occurred. Then I have option to cancel or to reboot now but if I press it then it freezes and I can only close the app.
I have clean phone with no data, it's an old one so I'm not really scarred to lose anything just wanna get that CM12.

There are plenty of occurrences in TWRP where it will show that recovery was not successfully installed. Once TWRP Manager shows you that message, close the app and shut down your device and then try to boot to recovery using the correct button sequence. I believe for your device that the correct button sequence is as follows:
Power off your device.
Boot in*recovery mode*by pressing and holding Volume Up and Power*Button*at the same time.
Release all buttons when the Sony Xperia T screen flickers and in a few seconds the Recovery screen will appear.
Give this a try.

Well, I suspect that if TWRP Manager cannot install recovery on your device then you will have to download the correct TWRP from www.twrp.me and fastboot flash recovery on your device.

Just to make sure, you can still boot the device normally into 4.3 JellyBean, right?
Okay, have you ever used ADB or fastboot?
Have you installed a program on your PC like
Minimal ADB & Fastboot or 15 Second ADB installer or the Android SDK?
To verify that your ADB & fastboot is installed and working correctly follow these steps:
Boot your device normally.
Go to Developer Options and verify you have OEM Unlock enabled and USB Debugging enabled.
Connect the device to your PC with the USB cable.
Once connected to the PC you should see a pop-up message on the device asking for authorization. If so, check the box to "always allow".
Open the Device Manager on your PC and look to see if your device is recognized. (if you see a yellow triangle or question mark the correct drivers need to be installed)
So, if your device is recognized and the correct drivers are installed, open a command prompt window and type this:
adb devices
If your ADB is setup and working and your device is properly recognized the command prompt will return with a list of attached devices and the serial number of the device.
This is where we need to start that way we know the ADB and fastboot environment is setup and working correctly.
Also, I was looking around the XDA Xperia forums and there are some good guides on how to do this just in case you want to read up on the subject.

Thanks.
To unlock bootloader I was using some fastboot program which was in a guide and I had to go to cmd and just type fastboot.exe oem unlock boot 0xKEY or something like that and then I just installed app that rooted my phone and that's it. Nothing more. I didn't install any other things since I have problems with Internet :/

Give the first two links a look. You will be able to get it done. Take your time. If there is something you don't understand, go back and read, watch a video and ask questions. If this is your only device you don't want to make a mistake that you can't recover from. Before I ever got into rooting Android, custom recoveries or ADB and fastboot I did nothing but read thread after thread and research other developers work and other users experiences. Then, I went and bought a backup device just in case I made a mistake. Let me know if you need anything.

Quick question. Which recovery did you install? Philz or TWRP?
Good job on getting into recovery. First, I would take a backup. That way if anything goes wrong you can boot into recovery and restore your backup and have a working device again. After your backup, when you install a ROM+GAPPS you will need to perform a full wipe. This includes:
Dalvik Cache
System
Data
Cache
Do not select your internal storage unless you have your ROM + GAPPS saved on a micro SD Card or USB OTG drive. If you have your ROM+ GAPPS saved to your internal storage and you wipe it you will not have an OS to install. Just be careful when selecting partitions to wipe. Let me know if you need any help.

Hi and thanks for fast reply again,
I have successfully installed Cyanogenmode which Im grateful!
But I Have a problem, I have installed gapps but when i go into phone i can only see Cyanogenmode apps and none from google! I'm running gapps installation again, maybe it will help.
After everything is okay I can wipe whole system with internal storage right? I think it switched to TWRP after I have booted into cyanogenmode successfully.

I would dirty flash the ROM + GAPPS again without wiping anything and then boot normally and see if you have your Google Apps. Also, don't wipe your system unless you have another ROM ready to install. Also, don't wipe your internal storage and your system at the same time unless you have a ROM saved on a micro SD Card or USB OTG drive. The only time you should wipe the internal storage is when you are doing a completely clean installation and you want your device to be in a fully stock new state.

If you are having a lot of apps force closing I suggest finding a different ROM to install. Maybe a stock style ROM that has Gapps built in. Try several ROM's. You may find one you like better.

You got a option in recovery to enable mtp
If you select keep read only partition them you can only read you can't format or write anything.
When TWRP starts it shows this option Keep read only partition. Many of guys check this and swipe.so they have problems to flash and wipe anything.
Connect a mmc using card reader with PC.
Copy custom ROM
Select install
Select mmc
Select file
Wait for process done
Wipe dalvik,cache
Reboot phone.
Done

No OS installed message in twrp in ONE plus one

HI All,
Post this week, i tried to flash the lineage 15.1 in my One plus one using TWRP. Actually, I want this to be clean flash, so i wiped cache, system & Data except Internal storage. When I flashed the ROM, I got ERROR 7 and eventually it was failed. So i tried to reboot my mobile and in reboot screen I saw this message "NO OS IS INSTALLED ARE YOU SURE TO REBOOT"? and when i rebooted my device, its showing ONE PLUS logo and Android logo. Also, whenever i tried to connect my device to laptop, its not getting detected and it showing message" as malfunctioned. Above all, to the height of stupidity, I didnt take a backup before I flash this rom.
Please someone help me to resolve this issue.

TWRP version?
can you connect your phone to a desktop/laptop?
if possible , then just download the rom of your choice, copy it into your phone's internal storage. and flash it.

TWRP version is 3.0.2-0. And my device is not getting detected when i connect it to laptop. And OTG is not detected in TWRP.

you will need TWRp 3.2.1-0
no roms in your internal storage?
guess you will need to find a desktop/laptop which will recognise your OPO.

Try booting in your recovery. Normally your PC can detect the device as USB storage. Than copy the actual recovery (I think it's version 3.2.1) and the zip file of your rom to the device.
Then install the new recovery from within the recovery.
Reboot in to the new recovery. Install your rom and reboot.
Sorry for not giving links to the latest recovery. But in not at home. Hope I could help.

Driver issue? 15 second adb installer kicks ass when getting your system flash-ready.

lucky you.
take this as a lesson learnt.
always keep some roms/gaaps in your internal storage so that you can flash from twrp in case a similar incident happens in future. or make sure you have an OTG cable+USB thumbdrive which you can use if a PC is not available.
Use the official TWRP 3.2.1-0 and update when available.
Keep a nandroid copy
KEEP A COPY OF YOUR IMEI/MODEMS SOMEWHERE
