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.

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?

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.

Have to re-root using the Magisk method. Put stock boot on phone, patch boot with Magisk, put modded boot back on computer, and flash in fastboot. AFAIK, there is no way to retain root. Every time you flash the latest monthly patch, it flashes a new stock boot. Therefore, no root.

There's a way with taking the ota through settings I found out how from a user on here which is:
Once received the ota , go to magisk first uninstall/restore images then download/install ota then DONT REBOOT, go back to magisk install magisk to inactive slot from the app then reboot and all should work with new ota update and have root still.
What is this update 4.3mb
Once again, my phone got bricked. I wanted to sideload, so I tried to get it into recovery, it wouldn't, so I tried a few times, and decided screw it. Now my phone bootloops. So, download the image and try flashing, it won't go into fastboot and fails. No matter what I do, I can't seem to save it. Can anyone help me with this? I'm trying a different computer in a sec, but, not sure if that will work either.
Edit: The different computer doesn't see it... FML

You missed the part where I did try flashing the image. I've done this a hundred times, so, I did it right.
Anyway, I got it. I didn't realize my work computer had a USB-C port, so, I grabbed one and tried flashing the image with that. Worked! Thank God... I guess sdk tools doesn't like a USB 1 to C cable, and my phone doesn't like going into recovery...

If you are rooted flash the boot.img of the factory image you are currently on to both slots:
Code:
fastboot flash boot --slot all boot.img
Then Do #4 'keep Data'

I am starting to feel more and more like a lot of the bootloop issues are being caused by OTAs swapping slots on install. Besides the --slot all patched boot, it might help to run the OTA twice to get it to install to both slots completely. Preferably though, quit using OTAs and work with -w removed flash-all installer (and even then possibly installing to both slots with an active slot swap in between and before rooting). The double install is common when installing custom ROMs, and the process for OTA sideloads is pretty similar.
Performance improvement, feels smooth and responsive. Glad i dont need to root this phone, ppl are having so many problems.

Worked exactly the same as the 10 and .C3 builds for me. Flash-all (minus -w) and patched boot in Magisk. No issues. It was not just security this month. See the functional patches in the bulletin.
https://source.android.com/security/bulletin/pixel/2019-10-01
is there new platform tools too?
Hey, guys. So I've been messing with my phone all day after a soft brick after having BlissROM since Feb. Long story short, something with the ROM update and it messed with my phone. I wiped EVERYTHING thinking it would solve the problem. I was able to use the All-In-One tool to save my phone through the bootloader (Thank goodness!). I finally got it to boot up to stock this morning. I've been trying all morning to gain root, but once I do, I lose WiFi and Network connections. So my question is:
What is the most current version of TWRP and Magisk that will allow me to be on stock and have root without any problems?
This is my setup.
OnePlus 7 Pro
Android version: Android 10
Build: Oxygen OS 10.0.3.GM21AA (now updated to 10.3.1)
Model: GM1917
Unlocked OEM
Unlocked Bootloader
This is the method I am using to push TWRP though the bootloader.
https://androidmtk.com/download-minimal-adb-and-fastboot-tool
These are the files that flash through adb/fastboot and lose Wifi and Network connectivity.
TWRP 3.3.1-79-guacamole-unified-Q: https://sourceforge.net/projects/ma...-guacamole-unified-Q-mauronofrio.img/download
Magisk v20.4: https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/releases/download/v20.4/Magisk-v20.4.zip
Since I don't have any connectivity at this point, I attempt to flash BlissROM with the following steps.
BlissROM version that last worked for me: https://downloads.blissroms.com/BlissRoms/Q/guacamole/Bliss-v12.6-guacamole-OFFICIAL-20200425.zip
STEPS
Boot into recovery
Backup your current ROM
Perform a factory reset
Flash Bliss Rom
Reboot recovery
Flash OpenGapps--NANO PACKAGE!!
*Flash magisk* optional
Reboot to system
Also, as I've previously stated, I have attempted to flash BlissROM through TWRP and with root (without WiFi and Data), but it hangs on the boot screen. When I go to TWRP and try to reflash the ROM, it gives me the error "cannot mount storage". I follow the instructions as stated in the original post, so I figured it has to be something with the TWRP or Magisk versions not being compatible. Since that does not work, I have since flashed stock and am currently on that without problems. Any links to the most current TWRP/Magisk/rooting methods are greatly appreciated. And if someone could help with getting BlissROM back on my phone afterwards, that would be great. Thanks!
Pretty sure you need to update to 10.3.2 to get it working right.

I just realized I could update past the first update. I figured it would update to the most recent version version after the flash back to stock, not that it would be incremental. Thank you so much for the heads up!
I have the most recent version of Magisk downloaded. What is the best for 10.3.2?

Got it. Does the same goes for TWRP? I read somewhere that the unofficial one might work better with Android Q (I'm assuming that's Android 10?)
I always use the unofficial version, works fine for me.

Got it. Okay, so it looks like I'll be giving BlissROM one last shot!
Before I flash TWRP and Magisk, I looked on the Oneplus website for the 10.3.2 update and it looks like the most current posted is 10.3.1. Should I update to 10.3.2 for the latest ROMS, or will 10.3.1 work fine? If so, where can I find it?
I used the oxygen updater app to download the update and sideloaded it.

So it looks like that didn't work. I got stuck on a bootloop again and had to revert back to stock.
I can't seem to find what the problem is. Here is what I am flashing:
TWRP 3.3.1-79-guacamole-unified-Q: https://sourceforge.net/projects/mau...o.img/download
Magisk v20.4: https://github.com/topjohnwu/Magisk/...gisk-v20.4.zip
This is the method I am using flash TWRP to the bootloader.
https://androidmtk.com/download-minimal-adb-and-fastboot-tool
When I flash both of those, I lose Wifi and Network on my stock ROM. I'm assuming one of them is also the reason why I can't flash BlissROM.
You don't need to flash magisk before you flash the ROM, just twrp. I do know when I bootlooped, it was because I missed a step, usually because I didnt wipe data.
Follow the flash instructions step by step or you will for sure bootloop. Read them over and over until you think you have a grasp of how to flash the ROM.
You can always get back into fastboot by holding power and both volume keys...then you can reflash twrp and start over. No need to go back to stock unless you want to or need to.
Just make sure you follow the instructions step by step. This device is a bit different to flash from the devices I have used before ...so it took me a few tries to get it done right.

I've been following the steps exactly as written. Take a look at step 5 on the TWRP thread. (https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...covery-unofficial-twrp-recovery-t3931322/amp/)
Install guide (Reccomended):
1. Install fastboot tools from google's sdk on your PC
2. Enter fastboot mode
3. Unlock your bootloader
4. Run "fastboot boot recoveryimgfilename.img" in command line (if you want to have it permanently you should flash the installer)
5. If you will flash the installer and you are stock you need also to flash magisk or your phone will not boot again
6. Enjoy it

Furthermore, this is also reiterated in the BlissROM thread. https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-7-pro/development/rom-blissroms-v11-9-t3957341/page138
Make sure you are rooted
Make sure you have a custom recovery installed
For Q-BETA- Make sure you are on Q firmware, is currently set to use OOS 10.3.0 Stable firmware- CLEAN INSTALL!!

I also noted that in that previous quote, having the original 10.0.3 I had installed shouldn't have cause any problems. I wiped data (factory reset) every time I flashed BlissROM, as it is the third step in the process.
The reason why I go back to stock using the all-in-one tool is because I don't have anything else to flash. The whole reason I even had a soft brick was because I tried to go back to stock after my BlissROM update and flashed a OTA from the oneplus site. I probably did that incorrectly, however. Idk how what sideload is or how it functions. So that all-in-one tool is my only safety net.
I have seen a few people still in need of the stock boot.img 11.2.2.2. for t-mobile Oneplus 9 (LE2117) So I have attached it for those in need!
Here is the stock boot.img for 11.2.3.3 Oneplus 9 T-Mobile

Alright so I've been sitting on this file for a few days. Willl I be able to flash this to my LE2117 on 11.2.2.2 and relock bootloader and be back to stock? Or will my system still be corrupt if I relock? G just wait for a non pro msm tool?

I'm not sure how you went about rooting it originally, but if you have only flashed boot.img and nothing else. Then yes that is how I would go about doing it on my phone, if I was wanting to go back to locked bootloader. I don't see any issue with doing that after you install the stock boot.img.

So I took magisk and downloaded the global OP and took boot.img from that magisk patched it and installed it then unlocked so I had the backup of THAT boot, not the Tmo one.

Yes That sucks but we all learn from are mistakes.. Fastboot Flash this stock boot.img and then either lock bootloader or if you want to have root? have magisk patch same stock boot.img and reinstall.
P.s. I also have been able to update over ota by just restoring stock boot.img in magisk.
Incase you wanted to keep rolling out with root. If you need help.i will try to make a step by step way I did it.

Went ahead and reflashed that boot.img. Worked fine. Now I can relock with no other steps at this point correct?
Correct.
Thank you my friend. This is most helpful. I was reluctant to root without a good way to return to stock for updates.

safetynet api error ？ How to do？
Magisk 22.1 has a safety net error. Download this app and it will show it passes. Also widevine is L1 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.freeandroidtools.safetynettest

Thank you! But I broke the system. Now that the update downloads more than half of the time, an error will occur. Do you have a backup of the system firmware or all system images？
This is maybe a stupid question but how do I flash this stock.img using Magisk?

I don't.. I would try factory reset or at least clear cache a few times consecutively. Sounds like there is a cache causing a issue with update.

Well you would fastboot the stock boot.img. but if you have never tampered with your original? And wanted root? you would have magisk patch the stock boot.img and then fastboot your.img. if you search how to root with boot.img you will find how to do it with the files above

I have tried to clear the cache and format, but the update is still halfway through the download and an error occurs

Thank you. Convert TMO to Global, EU, or other variant I flashed my phone to the international version based on this article, and then updated it to EU 11.2.3.3, everything worked normally

Would you be able to share which file did you use to convert to global? I just got my unlock bootloader token from oneplus right now.

In the top thread, you can download the global and European firmware Rom. you only need to replace your own modem file
I'm not sure why i have Magisk installed in a way that it cannot find the stock boot image, but that seems to be the case.
a quick search didn't turn up the stock boot image for my existing ROM version (IN2025_11_f.15)
I figure it may be easier to just update and lose root, then re-root with the new boot image, but I've had some issues doing what I thought would be easy, but turned into big issues, so before I start down this path, I wanted to ask what may be the best way to go from where I am...
(rooted with Magisk, but no stock boot.img, running build number IN2025_11_F.15, Baseband version Q_V1_P14)
...to getting onto the latest version my phone is offering (IN2025_11.F.62_2620_202301162204) and get Magisk fixed so that it then has a stock boot image, so I can update later by just uninstalling/restoring images, installing the update, then rebooting to the inactive slot, which worked fine for years.
Thanks in advance for any help/guidance doing so.

Does it work if you try to update without unrooting?

That happens if you flash a Magisk patched boot image instead of booting it and then using direct install.

No. I think the update isn't a full ROM. I believe read somewhere that works when the update is a full ROM
I'm just not sure how to 'start over' to get a stock image saved so Magisk will let me restore again, without having to wipe the phone.

White don't you ask in the 8/8 Pro (I'm assuming that's what you have) forums if someone can provide you with a stock boot image for your current OOS version?
Note that this is an 8T forum so you don't get people here providing you with a copy.
