Stuck in Fastboot (after trying to install omnirom) - OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers

Hey Guys,
I know there are some older threads but im getting a bit confused and a bit desperate. My op6 arrived a few days back and I decided to flash a custom rom today. Got twrp and magisk installed. Tried to flash omnirom and I also flashed twrp again (got confused at the time). Now my phone only boots into fastboot. If anyone could help I would greatly appreciated it, panicking ever so slightly about this. I was on Android oos 9.0 when i tried to flash omnirom 9.0.
I tried to fastboot boot into twrp via the cmd but its giving me an error of (Failed to load/authenticate boot image: load error)
Thanks in advance.

Did you have pie on both slots? And also, if you know there is threads regarding this, why don't you read the sulotions provided?

Hey thanks for the quick reply. I looked through some of the other threads and most of them seem to assume that the person does not have an unlocked bootloader and such. Atm im reading through this thread and trying to understand exactly what to do. https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/rom-stock-fastboot-roms-oneplus-6-t3796665/page61
Came from a oneplus 5 so not used to the whole slot system.
But yeah couldnt find a thread that fits my situation for android 9.0
Edited:
From what I understand it should be a pi setup on both if they are both populated.
Edit2:
So good news. Got the phone working again. Used an unbrick tool over on the oneplus forums. If anyone ever finds themselves in the same situation look for the Mega unbrick guide on the oneplus forums.

I'm having the same issue. After watching multiple videos, reading multiple XDA threads, I'm still confused as to what to do. Here is everything that I have done, and continue to have the same issue (reboots into bootloader)
1. Installed latest Oxygen OS via OTA.
2. OEM unlocked.
3. Installed TWRP (Blu Spark 3.2.3)
4. Wiped System, Caches and Data
5. Installed Lineage 16.0 on both slots via TWRP
6. Flashed TWRP.zip
Upon rebooting the phone, it boots straight into the bootloader. Am I doing something wrong or missing something?
Also coming from Nexus 6P and unfamiliar with the slot system...
Edit: 'Unbricked' device by using the method found in this thread...

Quick flashing question

Hi all,
about 6 months ago the motherboard on my OPO died so I sent the device to them and they replaced it without charging me. Before that happened, I had a twrp flashed and used the latest cyanogen rom.
When I received it back it was really hectic at work so I just set it up and continued to use it as is.
I don't remember if I rooted it or anything like that and for sure I did not install any recovery app.
I currently use Cyanogen 13.1.2 with android 6.0.1 and wish to upgrade to Lineage OS.
I am not sure what steps I should take now as I have all my data (pics, apps etc) and nothing is backed up.
Can someone please remind me what steps I should take in order to back everything up and then flash a recovery tool and the new lineage Rom?
Thanks!

This is the best thread on where to start from and what to do.As you said,you had Twrp flashed before you gave your device to SVC,there are good chances your bootloader is already unlocked.
Test by giving this command in fastboot mode-
fastboot oem device-info
For flashing lineage os,

Well now after I flashed TWRP, i cant access it. I use the power+vol down and it just shows me the OPO logo and then a dark screen.
Any advice?

No OS installed in TWRP

Hi guys
I was trying some of custom rom on my OP6 and I wanted to go back to Oxygen OS. So i did a clean installation with system wipe and i flashed the last full OTA update. But since i can't boot to system anymore, TWRP always displays that there is no OS installed despite the fact that I've tried several rom . Is this the first time it's done this to me how can I fix it?

The best suggestion I can give you is to flash stock oos with TWRP, reboot to stock recovery, without flashing anything else, wipe data from stock recovery and startup system.. if it is working you can flash back TWRP and magisk if you need it
Just be careful because at your point is easy to lose all of your stored data

If you wipe system, then flash oos ROM, TWRP will think there is no os. You can just ignore and boot.
Wiping system then flashing any time will make twrp display "no os installed" it does this because it hasn't created files for twrp to check if you have a ton installed. Flashing twrp then rebooting to twrp fixes it.
Reboot to stock recovery?

Hi, need a little bit of support, since I'm new to this as well. I was in a working OOS open beta 25/28, but then I think I flashed the wrong zip (OOS 9.0.9?), and I was not able to boot to system. It kept going to "bootloader unlocked" screen and custom recovery. Currently in TWRP blu_spark 3.3.1-x v. 9.109, and it's showing me no OS installed when I attempt to reboot. I haven't rebooted to system yet.
All the folders in my /sdcard is gibberish... if I try to push a file to it, it says "Required key not available." I did remove all security/passwords from my phone before doing any updates/backups.
I completed a wipe cache/dalvik/system via TWRP, and flashed the OOS OTA stable Android 10 zip downloaded directly from OnePlus Support. Considering this situation, do you still think it's safe for me to reboot to system? Then how do I get to stock recovery from there--is that by holding down the buttons?

No, your internal storage Is like trash cause the last rom you flashed has older security patch than oos10. Your device Is now encrypted and wont boot to system. I Guess you have to erase all via MSN tool or fastboot signed rom. Even if you wiped what mentioned above, your problem still be the data.
Fastboot method?

Thank you for replying. I'm relieved that you know of a couple methods to try.
Is using "Format Data" in TWRP an option for dealing with the encryption??
For the MSN tool, can I use this one? Tried looking around, but it's unclear. "[TOOL] MsmDownloadTool V4.0 International (Oxygen OS 5.1.5)" https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...wnloadtool-v4-0-international-t3798892/page10
I would be more comfortable with using fastboot, but am I at any risk of having lost fastboot, or can I just turn off my device from TWRP right now and hold down the buttons to get there? Afraid to move out of TWRP right now, in case I can't get back. I do have twrp-3.3.1-18-enchilada-Q-mauronofrio.img that I can run from fastboot if needed.
By "signed rom," do you mean I can simply flash one of the zips here from fastboot? "[OnePlus 6][ROM][OTA][Oxygen OS] Mirrors for official Oxygen OS ROMs and OTA updates" https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/oneplus-6-mirrors-official-oxygen-os-t3792244

I hardbricked my device about 10 times and i was able to recovery It even from a blank screen. Btw format data Will erase all your data but also the internal storage. About fastboot dont be afraid, go under twrp reboot section and reboot to bootloader. Then go under xda op6 guide section and search for mirrors for fastboot rom guide by Mauronofrio. He pushed my ass out the **** a lot of time.
P.s. Sorry but I dunno how to paste a link via xda app. Yes, ik! It's a vert newbie thing.

That's awesome, I'm starting to grasp how much of a genius Mauronofrio is, after so many people referencing his work.
In his guide, he says, "These ROMs can't be used to update or downgrade your phone but just to restore your phone, so don't use them to come back to oreo or to update from oreo to pie." This may be a dumb question, but how do I know which zip/OOS version to flash, when I don't have a functioning OS on my phone?

I talked with Mauronofrio in pm and he said me that you could solve your issue simply flash the ROM you want and format data after flash that one. Remember that your internal will be wiped but it would happen in any scenario we talked.
Magisk, boot img?

That worked! And starstruck that you were able to check that with him. I flashed Mauronofrio's fastboot ROM for 10.3.2 and it rebooted (WOW). I clicked through the Google setup pages and checked that my data and wifi worked.
I then went back into fastboot, booted M's twrp img, fomatted data, and then installed twrp-3.3.1-x_blu_spark_v9.109_op6.zip, rebooted into recovery.
Then I think I made a mistake, because I installed Magisk-v20.4.zip. It succeeded, but now I can't boot into system anymore. Is it too late to flash the 10.3.2 boot.img?

I ended up following the guide to Magisk Root without TWRP for OnePlus 6 Oxygen OS https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/patched-boot-image-magisk-16-7-beta-t3818853 since it was referenced by Mauronofrio's post for having issues getting his TWRP to work with latest Magisk.
Someone posted a patched boot.img for 10.3.2, so now I'm rooted without TWRP. Priorities. Now all I need is for special characters and emojis to work Will keep an eye on other threads.
I'm learning a lot, thanks so much for all your help. You pointed me in the right direction when I was not sure what the hell to do!

"System update installation failed" while trying to install Q dp3, what did I miss?

"System update installation failed" while trying to install Q dp3, what did I miss?
I am currently on oxygenOS 9.0.8, both slots completely stock. I have unlocked the bootloader and enabled USB debugging.
I am trying to install Q dp3, but everytime I select Q dp3 zip file and press ok, update manager immediately says "System update installation failed" with no specific error code or any leads.
I have tried:
-Redownloading the Q dp3 file from here (https://oxygenos.oneplus.net/OnePlus6Oxygen_22_OTA_003_all_1907120020_wipe_ae2a3b38959345b1.zip)
-Rebooting and trying again
-Relock and unlock the bootloader
-factory reset within the settings
The strange thing is, I can normally install oxygenos 9.0.8 full update file. So I suspected problem of the dp3 file. But redownloading didn't solve the problem.
Is there something I have missed out? Some settings I have to do? Specific conditions?
Searching haven't helped me much(I searched everywhere, but I think nobody has my problem).
If someone can help me, I will be grateful. Thanks!
Since your bootloader is unlocked anyway, you can flash Android Q DP3 zip using TWRP. Flash it on both slots. Haven't tried blu_spark, but mauronofrio's TWRP works with Q. Don't forget to format data.

Can I ask you one more question? What is the best and convenient way to go back to stock? I used nexus 4 and mi a1 before, and both devices just had to use
fastboot roms to go back to complete stock. Is it same with OP6? Or do I have to use MSM tool or other things?

I think it's down to your preference. I prefer the fastboot ROMs simply because I haven't tried MSM download tool yet. But yeah, both fastboot ROMs and MSM download tool are available for OP6.

However, I can't boot TWRP with fastboot boot twrp.img method. Before updating to Q, it worked. Now, cmd line shows FAILED (remote: 'unknown command').
I have tested with newer versions of Fastboot, but the results were the same. Anybody knows how to solve this problem?

Yep, it's a known issue with DP3 (or possibly earlier builds). Anyway, every time you flash a ROM, may it be stock or custom, you should always flash TWRP next. For now, you could try downgrading to Pie using fastboot ROMs.

No problem. Read more about A/B partitions. It's actually just as easy to mod our phone once you know how A/B partitions work.

General Oneplus 9 and / 9 Pro TWRP

Just a reminder for people who only read the oneplus 9 forum and not oneplus 9 pro one:
[RECOVERY] [11] [OFFICIAL] TeamWin Recovery Project
Introduction: Team Win Recovery Project or TWRP for short, is a custom recovery built with ease of use and customization in mind. We started from the ground up by taking AOSP recovery and loading it with the standard recovery options, then added...
forum.xda-developers.com
I tested it and flashed it on my oneplus 9 LE2110 and it works.
Again, as i always have to write to people.
Be careful, only do something you can undo.
Before you "Flash Current TWRP" do a full BACKUP!
Does said recovery perform full back-ups of partitions and restore features ?
Edit
I booted it up . Decrypts perfectly. Backed up modem just to see for myself. Rebooted back onto system . Booted twrp again and it found saved partition to restore. This makes life so much easier. Time to go get a full system backup !! Cool
Exactly. I'm super happy. Now the OnePlus 9 Is finally a good phone. Without TWRP it's just risky.
Im sure some bugs are still there but it looks very promising.

Hi there, I have a question:
When you have a new device, would the following work:
1. Unlock bootloader
In fastboot mode:
2.
Code:
fastboot boot c:\twrp.img
In TWRP
3. Install TWRP
4. Install Magisk
5. Reboot - then you have Root, TWRP?
6. Upgrades can than be done in TWRP by installing the files and than intalling again TWRP and afterwards Magisk?
Best
Axel
It appears you are asking. If I am incorrect, my apologies. With the 6t (also a a/b OP device)
The process I always used was
1) reboot to bootloader
2) boot twrp.img
3) install twro zip
4) reboot recovery
5) upon TWRP reboot, install magisk
6) profit.
Anytime I tried to go ahead and install Magisk in the same round as installing TWRP, it would install to the opposite slot making me have to do the whole process over again. Ymmv
XDA is Great, and, yet, at the same time: XDA is very challenging.
With so many able to contribute, and the lack of external editing capacity ( unlike SO ),
it's difficult to distill the information.
Okay, Great! There's a TWRP for the OnePlus 9 !
I used TWRP 3.5 and Magisk to root a Lenovo Tab M10, without any need for external input.
The Answer I'm looking for here is: Am I able to install / root / whatever my T-Mo OP 9 with TWRP ?
Does anyone have any definitive solutions ?
Thank You, in Advance, for any assistance !

Is your bootloader unlocked? If yes then you could boot to fastboot and fastboot boot twrp.img. You will have your answer then.

Sadly, No, boot-loader is locked. Never encountered this on both previous OP 6t's.
Hence my confusion. When I walked out of the t-Mo store with my 6t, I had No issues.
I used the wonderful mauronofios tool, to do it All with no troubles.
crash my 6t, forced to take a "9 5g" from t-Mo, and now I am regretting it.
Wondering what has changed, and by whom..? t-Mo change policies, or OnePlus ?
Actually, I've been a t-Mo customer for 16 Years ! First time I've ever had to "Ask Permission" to have my phone, or my SIM unlocked...

You should start a separate thread for all that. Kinda want to keep on topic to make it less confusing for everyone
Has anyone been able to mount a usb drive? ive tried everything and it just looks to not be functional.

Just installed it - thanks OP.
Does anyone know if I can jdirtyflash the global rom 11.2.7.7 over the EU rom which is currently on 11.2.7.7 in twrp?
I was originally on global (le2110) but flashed EU via update. Now I want to go back to global.

Need help...
I typed Fastboot boot twrp.img instead of fastboot flash boot twrp.img
And that was to boot_a
So then i tried fastboot flash boot_b twrp.img
It wont load the recovery now. Phone wont boot up unless i
fastboot boot patched11.2.7.7DA.img
I even try to install Magisk directly and it fails.
Can I get some help. Dont even wanna restart my phone.
Thank you
All Good Now..... I Figured It Out!
How to fix this
id avoid TWRP if on 11.2.8.8 already. it can boot from fastboot and even install itself as your recovery but it will not mount data. i tried the refresh sizes trick in backup and then the default_password for password to decrypt and nothing. pretty sure twrp mishaps are what bricked my phone last too . thankfully it still boots, just the recovry section is effected
ill try and flash the OTA zip tomorrow. sick of messing with it for now lol
Are we still avoiding twrp

TWRP Flashable Stock Rom

Does anyone know where I can find a stock Rom preferably android 10 that I can flash in TWRP? I have the fastboot roms but when flashing vbmeta there is no partition choice to flash it to but the partition exists on both a and b slots after a gdisk print command. And I have no clue on how I would flash the bin files in TWRP. Also the same problem exists for bootloader and a few others just like vbmeta. I need stock because I completely screwed my A11 stock after a faulty magisk install and didn't know I couldn't install customs from A11. I've been away for a little bit and instead of doing homework I acted as if everything was the same from 10 to 11 and well...here I am. No computer access so fastboot is out of the question. Am I screwed until I have computer access? Thanks again,
Rooster

Hi rooster, have a look at the link below. The rom is from trusted guys who have been doing moto stuff for years. Follow the instructions, and hopefully you have a good result.

OK brother I just flashed the Rom following all instructions minus erase userdata, which is a step I usually take but I don't have fastboot right now, and it's still booting up has been for 2-3 minutes but it finally vibrated when I started it up so I'm expecting good things. Thanks so much....and there she is she started lol perfect timing! You have helped me so much as this is my daily now that I've lost my OnePlus.
Edit
everything seems to be working fine except for my calls. They don't come through but they show as missed and when I try to dial out it goes to call but then goes straight to call ended. Everything else is working tho.
One more thing..is there a certain process to root? When I flashed the magisk zip it sent me into a boot loop.
