this is a temporary hack or a dirty fix. Tested on oreo roms.
Steps
1. Flash any oreo rom like RR, Bootleggers, ArrowOS etc on which you don't have this issue.
2. reboot to twrp. Take backup of vendor.
3. do a clean flash and flash any oreo ROM of your choice.
4. Restore TWRP backup that you took in step 2. vendor backup only.
5. Reboot
Points to remember
1. This is just a dirty trick. so expect some bugs or its also possible no bugs.
2. I have tried it on havoc oreo with RR vendor and have been using it for few days without any issue.
3. You can try it on pie roms as well. but los16 vendor is the only option right now. and it hasn't worked for me on the pie roms that i have tried.
4. if system doesn't boot then try some other vendor. Try to use los vendor on los based roms and so on.
5. once again, you can try on pie roms but its depends on the ROM as well, los16 vendor might not be compatible with it.
6. If you get this method working on some pie rom then let us know as well.
7. we can also make just vendor flashable zips from ROMs like RR, mokee, arrowos, etc and then flash that after oreo roms. but i can't make that zip. so waiting for someone to do this. i will try to make such zip when i have time but not sure if i will be able to do it. so just waiting for someone else to do this.?

Left Side Zip is of RR. The one on which 3 files are highlighted.
Right Side Zip is of Havoc on which i am not able to switch data to 2nd SIM.
Transfer these 3 files from RR zip to havoc zip and flash the havoc ROM.
thats it.
you can do this for other oreo ROM. No neet to flash the ROM and then take TWRP backup using this method.

First of all, sorry for not posting this to the development section, I am currently unable to do so, if a moderator could move this to the phone's topic/thread/forum, that'd be great.
I recently managed to port both the rom and TWRP for this device, these are my first ever manually done ports. So I do not know much about that.
Also, the rom also has SuperSU root access.
Installation:
- Get SP Flash Tools (I used version 5.1512.0)
- Download the Resurrection ROM - https://mega.nz/#!Qhsi2ATa!2w45GlSMZHIxNRD-ocrDcvyeEzVkcVKOqaI4n-eaa1o
- Download TWRP - https://mega.nz/#!BosSiaAJ!apwPAEuNkWq0A6qKtadVQAkkjzZm4ka6gA5MUDT6r1c
- Download Gapps (ARM 7.1 Micro/Nano/Other) - http://opengapps.org/
- Flash the recovery through SP Flash Tools
- Boot to recovery (Power+Volume UP while the device is turned off)
- Required - Wipe system, cache, data, dalvik cache
- Flash ROM and Gapps
- Reboot.
- Wait for it to boot
IMPORTANT
This rom and TWRP are NOT bugless. Here are the issues:
Rom:
- Camera is not working
- No audio, only with earphones/headphones
TWRP:
- In TWRP, in the reboot menu, all options to reboot to specific mode just shut down the device instead. So for example, if you click reboot to recovery, it just shuts the device off. You have to reboot to recovery manually instead with hardware buttons, and so on.
About the ROM:
I tried fixing the issues by replacing the appropriate lib files, but no luck. It either bootlooped afterwards, or nothing changed at all. Not sure what use will it be of this rom if main features are not working. But I decided to do this just for fun and to share it with you, I don't think I can fix these problems myself, plus I will get rid of this device soon anyway. In case anything goes wrong, I am not responsible for the damages that may occur. Make sure you get the stock rom and flash it if you want to go back to the original.
Special thanks

Hey Guys,
hopefully its okay to post my request here.
I am stuck rooting my OP7 Pro.
As you can see on below screenshots this where I try to start:
I have a GM1913 and I am on Oxygen OS 10.0.5.GM21BA:
I folowd this guide including the video tutorial: https://www.xda-developers.com/unlock-bootloader-root-oneplus-7-pro/
Unfortunately I am unable to gain root.
Either I am ending up in a boot loop or I am able to boot into android but root is still missing and Wireless LAN isnt working.
These are the TWRP Files I was working with:

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

The Files 3.3.1-0 to 3.3.1-4 aren´t working anyway. after flashing them, I am just back at the bootloader. Only the unofficial 76 Version is working to get into TWRP.
If I am able to get into twrp, I´ll do the following:
1) flashing original boot.img to Slot A and Slot B (from here: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=294300)
2) flashing the TWRP Zip File (only to the "active" Slot)
3) flashing Magisk 20.4 (also tried 20.1)
And then either I am stuck in a bootloop or in Android Wlan is missing and Magisk still not working.
Can please someone help me pointing at what I am doing wrong?
Wait a sec. If you have unlocked bootloader please boot to fastboot and do command: fastboot boot twrp_file_name.img on the latest TWRP that you can find: https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...nt/recovery-unofficial-twrp-recovery-t3931322
Latest version and files you need are:
TWRP 3.3.1-79 Unified Unofficial Q by mauronofrio
TWRP 3.3.1-79 Unified Unofficial Installer by mauronofrio
after you boot to this recovery go and install recovery installer zip and later flash also package with Magisk 20.4
Voilla you have root + latest TWRP
Well.... just WTF?
Just done it as described by @SkubiDoo and it works...
So was the issue using old TWRP Files?
Anyway - Thank you very much for your help!
Looks like mate better to stick with this mauronofrio version.
While trying to flash Lineage OS I'm encountering a ton of hurdles. The current guide I'm on: https://www.getdroidtips.com/resurrection-remix-google-pixel-4a/
Says I need to install some Resurrection Remix image? I think I may be missing something. The alternative is GrapheneOS which appears FAR FAR FAR FAR FAR simpler to flash onto a device. But I don't want my first step to be such a big one where I lose so much.
How to Install TWRP Recovery on Google Pixel 4a and Root it
On this page, we will guide you to install the TWRP Recovery on Google Pixel 4a (sunfish). This guide contains both the written instruct
www.getdroidtips.com
I'm following those instructions.
I am currently;
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrpname.img
I get an error. I wish I had written it down but it was essentially command failed.
For "twrpname.img" I substituted "twrp201017-test5.img" which is the twrp image I was pointed to elsewhere.
Help would be greatly appreciated.

Are you on Android 11 stock? TWRP will only work on a phone with Android 10. So you will have to downgrade before flashing TWRP.
Probably easier to check out the rom section in the Pixel 4a forum than to install TWRp.

I see a typo in that command, FYI. I don't know if that fixes your problem or not but it should probably be recovery, not recoery.
Did you download SDK Platform-Tools from here? https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools
When I downloaded, it was platform-tools_r31.0.1-windows.zip.
This guide might be helpful if you really want TWRP (and Android 10, not Android 11): https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/guide-unlocking-downgrading-to-a10-twrp-root.4233275/
If you just want Lineage 18 then maybe follow this one: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...-patch-for-pixel-4a-sunfish-20210308.4208931/
I don't think TWRP is really necessary.
So I have become member of the bricked-my-phone family. I have followed this tutorial https://www.getdroidtips.com/unbrick-oneplus-6/ and successfully unbricked it.
I have downloaded latest oxygen os (I tried two latest - one with android 11 and one with android 10), I have added the zip to the root directory and from system update I selected it, but in both cases I instantly get "System update installation failed" at 0%. It also says I am up do date from OTA (it it android 8.1 lol)
what should I do?
I want to install latest oxygenOS only for firmware, then I will be installing LineageOS again. I am afraid If I do it the other way around (LOS first than firmware) I will brick it again.

Download the latest OOS11 full version and install through Settings-- System Update -- Local Update.
Hope it helps.

That's exactly what I did and the result, you see on screenshot..
But later in the evening, I found the solution here https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/oneplus-6-system-update-installation-is-failed.1314311/:
The OP6 must be on 9.0.9 before upgrading to Android 10.
You are still on Oreo/Android 8.
There is a link for 9.0.9 on this website:

If you are able to boot to Fastboot as well as able to unlock bootloader than do unlock the bootloader and flash this msm file
[ROM][STOCK][FASTBOOT][OP6] Stock Fastboot ROMs for OnePlus 6
Things are changing with the advent of project treble and seamless updates. OnePlus will no longer release ROMs flashable via stock recovery (with twrp is possible but not recommended). The updates will be done on the slot not used for example...
forum.xda-developers.com
And after that reboot to recovery stock and factory reset. This will fix your issue than after lock the bootloader(if it's unlock after flashing the file) and update to latest rom (download the rom from oneplus updater app with advance setting "on")
Good day guys! I'm trying to flash Arrow OS 12.1 and CrDroid OS but both failed. It even not load. I'm trying figure out where i could be wrong. I'm on latest Official TWRP by Nebrassy.

I think your download it corrupted. Try redownloading the ROM.
Also remember to wipe Dalvik, Data, Cache and Metadata before flashing the ROM.

Dont forget to almost FORMAT data, encryption can also prevent flashing different rom.
And disable every and all passwords, patterns, fingerprints.
use ofox recovery with a12 support.
