[Q] Stuck on boot up screen...HELP!

Hi everyone i'm new here and i would like your help.
I have an AT&T HTC ONE X and I just tried installing CM10 on my phone using TWRP recovery method. I followed every single step, did everything i read and saw in the youtube video. Unfortunately, when i clicked 'reboot system', my phone started to reboot but now i'm stuck on the boot screen "HTC quietly brilliant". What can i do?
PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

so you flashed boot.img in fastboot if u are on hboot 1.14, if you dont you will be stuck at boot screen.
you should also do a full wipe in twrp if you are coming from another rom.

Followed these steps but nothing!!!
3) Another scenario, if you struck in boot for every long and you panicked and you did factory reset. After you can access only twrp recovery then do not worry, do the following
"plug in phone to your computer and enter twrp, choose "mount". Get on your computer and download Rom of choice. Once downloaded, extract Rom and seperate the boot.img. rezip Rom. Transfer Rom onto phone.
fastboot boot.img, then flash the Rom through twrp. Then your golden" (Thanks to InflatedTitan) ( Do not understand fastboot , boot.img then read above)

Pixel 2 Magisk Bug won't take pin

Pixel 2 XL is soft bricked at the moment and I can't for the life of me think of what I need to do to recover it. I unlocked my bootloader and rooted when I switched to Pie, (I saw people we're already able to use Android pay on a rooted device again and I just couldn't help myself.) I installed twrp accidentally tried to flash TWRP not realizing I needed to temporary boot it and pushing the zip over erasing the recovery I proceeded to just fastboot it and carry on with the normal procedure with my phone. after getting Magisk installed I had my phone all set up until the next time I turned it on and back off again It said I forgot my PIN which I know I didn't I think this was because a glitch with smartlock I just setup so I go to my recovery and wipe the Dalvik cache, cache, Internal storage, and data and low and behold my phone bootloops never making past the final stage before it gets to the lockscreen. I go to Fastboot screen on my phone and my mac can't list my phone as a device in adb and now I am having issues getting back into recovery which I think might be because I am on the stock kernel my Fastboot screen on my phone says Product Name - Taimen, Variant - MSM USF:SAMSUNG(64gig) DDR:SAMSUNG, Bootloader version - TM220j, Baseband version - g899800253-1805232234, my Serial number, Serure boot - Yes, Device status - Unlocked, Vart console - Disabled, HW version - rev_10
I can't get it to stop bootlooping and just turn off.

Try flashing the stock boot.img with Fastboot. That might get you out of it. Since you did all the wiping I can't say for sure. However, when you were at the point where it wouldn't take your password, that's all that needed to be done. I ran into the same thing. It's a Magisk bug. Magisk gets flashed to the boot partition so flashing the factory boot.img will fix it. TWRP also gets flashed to the boot partition so if you flashed it too, flashing a factory boot image will get rid of that too. ADB won't see the phone while it's in fastboot mode. You need to use "fastboot devices". You can download a factory image if you don't have one and extract the boot.img from it. Put it in the folder your fastboot is in, and then open a command prompt (terminal? I'm not a MAC person) from that folder and type "fastboot flash boot boot.img" (without the quotes). Make sure you use download the factory image that's the same as what you currently have installed on the phone.

I stopped my endless bootloop! Now it says my device is corrupt and cannot be trusted and may not work properly when I tried to start it I couldn't get past the google screen. When I plug it into charge now it doesn't automatically going into a bootloop that can only be stoped by going into the fastboot mode or running out of battery, but the the charging symbol on the screen won't go away. I might have wiped system when I was in TWRP when I couldn't boot back after the first wipe. And I accidentally tried fastbooting Telstra img first. Anyway to get past this white Google screen? Also when I trey to go to recovery now it's the android laying on it's back with a red triangle and it says no command. Should I execute the flash-all script?

Downloaded the stock img files and ran the flash all .sh and now I am back in Android ready to mess something up again I could not thank you enough for your help I am so happy right now

Glad to hear you got it working again. As for the recovery screen that say no command, that't the way it works with the stock recovery. When you see that screen, press and hold power and volume up. That will get you into recovery. If you happen to try rooting again and get stuck in a bootloop or some such thing, just flash the stock boot image.. That should get you going again.

How to install TWRP after Magisk?

How to install TWRP after Magisk?
I have a OnePlus 6 running Oxygen OS 9.0 and I managed to install Magisk by obtaining the stock boot image and using the magisk manager app to patch it to include magisk, then I flashed the patched boot.img using fastboot and ADB.
The reason I did it this way is that every time I tried to boot with twrp.img in order to flash twrp.zip, I would run into a screen saying Qualcomm CrashDump Mode and TWRP wouldn't boot.
Now I want to install TWRP and I was wondering if there is any way of doing it by using Magisk, so I wouldn't have to boot twrp.img.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Same problem here. Already tried to boot every version of TWRP without success.

If you have magisk manager with working root.... Then YES you can.... Just download Official TWRP app from GPlay... Open it give root permissions and follow the onscreen instructions.... Thats it...and yes use the zip not the img file

But there's no button to flash, I open the app, select flash recovery, select device, but theres no button to flash it.
See screenshot

do you have fastboot and adb installed on your computer? I assume so as you have oem unlocked to flash magisk, correct?
Copy the TWRP file that ends with .img to your desktop
if so, open a command prompt (windows key +R and type cmd press enter)
type "cd desktop" without quotes and press enter
type fastboot boot "twrp.img" (whatever the file name actually is)
Congrats, you are now in TWRP. But wait, there's more! if you reboot to system or other wise leave TWRP at this point you will revert back to stock. to flash recovery onto your device permanently, install the TWRP.ZIP (The ZIP is IMPORTANT) as it changes the boot on the OP6 to have the TWRP image (oh, by the way, there is no recovery partition on OP6 like previous devices [Thanks A/B partition!])
Now you can reboot to your hearts content. remember if you update OOS, you will lose the custom recovery, so flash the TWRP.zip after every update!

Yes I have fastboot and ADB on my computer (Linux btw), and as I mentioned it the first post, I already tried that, except that instead of booting into TWRP after "fastboot boot twrp.img" I got to a screen saying Qualcomm CrashDump mode (see attached image (the image might not be exactly the same as mine, I found that on the internet because I don't have my computer to reproduce it now)).

super odd. maybe your boot image is corrupt? still doesn't explain why fastboot boot isn't working though... Try bluSpark's TWRP image. it's a solid build and I am not having issues with it.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/development/kernel-t3800965/page17
or you can also try swapping to the other partition by typing 'fastboot --set-active=_a' (or fastboot --set-active=_b) and booting to that recovery.
if that doesn't work for ya, try and restore stock via fastboot is my only suggestion:

I wonder if this problem has been solved? After having Root without TWRP since last year, I decided to flash TWRP now because I miss having a Nandroid backup. But just like op, right after I type in "fastboot boot TWRP.img", I end up with that Qualcomm crash dump error, resulting in a fastboot boot loop every time I restart the phone. My only recourse is to use the MSM flash tool that reflashes everything and returns the phone into factory stock. In the process wiping out all my data. I don't think there's anything corrupted
EDIT: the problem wasn't the procedure; it was the damned bootable TWRP .img files. I downloaded different TWRP.img versions, and they all failed to flash into temporary TWRP, except for this one that I found here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1CJoBQ5ZuAExv27XLWwLMFYfHoLEu5YFJ You can use this bootable .img to flash any TWRP version compatible with your device

Does it work for Android 10?

Hello I'm having magisk root access and official TWRP app but can't use it for NAndroid backup, how can I use the app for backup and fishing custom ROM?

flashed TWRP over boot slot B

I ended up flashing TWRP over my boot slot (B) and now I just boot into TWRP. I have already installed TWRP on boot slot (a). I can't remember which version of oxygenOS I have installed and couldn't find a way to confirm. How can I fix this? Also want to update to latest version of oxygenOS and android. No data on phone yet. phone still connects to computer, adb sideloader and fastboot commands still work work. Thanks

Are you saying you did fastboot flash boot of the TWRP img? You should be doing fastboot boot TWRP img, then flash the TWRP installer zip.
You can get the OS back up and running by flashing the correct boot.img via fastboot. Or use one of the fastboot stock ROMs.

But to recover his phone, the OP will need the original boot.img from his OS version.
OP has already messed up the boot partition.
That has to be fixed first.

Yes, I had to unbrick using msm. It worked. Was able to get phone rooted and stock recovery replaced with TWRP but it was a much bigger pain than I expected.

Glad you got it recovered.
There is an application called "Partitions Backup".
It allows you to back up all the phone partitions. The one you really want to backup from now on is the boot_a and boot_b.
Since you are rooted when you do an upgrade, grab the boot_a and boot_b before installing Magisk after the install.
This allows you to go back to stock. After you back them up, copy them to a computer.

hey guys. Not able to flash oos through twrp.

Doesn't TWRP back up everything including boot partitions?
Is there nothing that will take the entire internal storage and just make a 'bare metal' image of it for restoring.. the whole entire thing, byte for byte? If not, why doesn't this exist? It just seems so logical to me and would be so incredibly useful. Phone borked? No problem. Just re-image it form the archive you made. To me, that is what TWRP is all about, at least conceptually if not technically.

Tried to root, booting animation forever

Hello,
I tried to root my OP7P GM1913 (OxygenOS was up to date) following this tutorial.
I could unlock the bootloader (which wiped the phone).
I then downloaded the .img and .zip TWRP 3.3.1-4 but failed to boot on the downloaded image.
I first tried
Code:
fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-4-guacamole.img
and also
Code:
fastboot flash boot twrp-3.3.1-4-guacamole.img
multiple times but it never booted in TWRP, it either goes back to the fastboot menu or stucks on the "Fastboot Mode" splash screen.
When I try to start the phone normally, it stays in the booting animation (white dots moving around a red circle) forever.
What should I do ?
–––
Update: I was using latest TWRP images from the official website but they don't support android 10.
I found mauronofrio's image here and could boot into TWRP
So now, following guides, I installed the zip twrp-3.3.1-75-guacamole-unified-installer-mauronofrio.zip via TWRP. It overrode both partitions.
But my phone now won't boot to oxygen, it get stuck with the boot animation (white dots moving around a red circle forever).
What can I try ? Flash some "stock" img found on this forum ?

Using a more recent "unofficial" build TWRP build (such as the -75 build you mentioned) is the right thing to do if the phone is on Android 10 (which most folks are at this point). You need to flash Magisk right after flashing TWRP installer zip, otherwise no boot is a common result. States this in the dev's instructions: https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...nt/recovery-unofficial-twrp-recovery-t3931322
You can try reboot to recovery (hold power + vol down for several seconds - may need to do this twice, once to shut down, another time to boot to recovery). Then try to flash the Magisk zip.
If the phone still doesn't boot, you can restore a stock boot.img via fastboot: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-7-pro/how-to/rom-stock-fastboot-roms-oneplus-7-pro-t3931424
Restore the whole stock ROM if you need to, but just flashing the stock boot.img should be enough.

Flashing magisk did not work. It generated errors that it could not mount /data or something like that so I erased all data and started again with stock boot.img. I could then start the process again and it worked. Thank you !

to root your phone,,, i guess you could try this..
since you can already boot to twrp,,
1. try downloading and flashing a full 2gb rom.... first
2. then flash twrp zip again
3. reboot to recovery again
4. flash magisk.zip
5. reboot system

Nevermind post above me had it right
