Hi Everyone
I recently bought a One plus one with much difficulty.
Then I decided to root it
I did everything, unlocking bootloader, installing twrp and then super su.
After that I decide to install a rom while following all the procedures.
When the rom finished installing on twrp, I reboot the phone and it show's the madhi rom and ends up with the swirling colours thing.
I waited for more than 20 minutes and nothing happened.
Tried re flashing and yet the same result.
I then decided to wipe cache, dalvik cache and system and install another rom but the same thing. It installs successfully on twrp but when the system is booting it gets stuck. I have already tried other roms via adb sideload but still no luck.
I'm not sure if i call this soft bricked or something else
Unfortunately I was an idiot, forgetting to back up the stock rom.
I can't seem to find anyone else who has this problem. I have rooted my htc one m7 before (which also got hard bricked), so i have a little experience.
I would really appreciate the help.
Did you check the md5 of the downloaded ROMs before flashing? You might corrupt downloads.

Try pulling a logcat while booting and recovery log after flash

Hey, so I just bought a Moto G LTE and got very excited about the amount of dev going on here (coming from an LG Optimus F6 which has almost none). Right way I unlocked the bootloader and rooted. So far so good. Then I flashed TWRP recovery and everything seemed fine. I downloaded the ParanoidAndroid ROM and flashed it, and the phone got stuck in a bootloop (with the PA boot animation). I then went back into recovery, did a reset and flashed BlissPop. Same issue (bootloop is now in the BP boot animation).
So now I'm not sure what to do. I can still get into recovery. I selected factory reset through recovery, and on the top of the screen it says "Factory Reset Complete", but on the log it says "Updating partition details..." and just stays like that. Rebooting just takes me back to the bootloop (still with the BlissPop animation).
Anyone have a clue what could be wrong here? Is there a way to check if there's anything I messed up along the way?
Thanks in advance for any help!

Hello welcome, i think you will like this device.
First off, what exact version is it? the XT1039, XT1040?
Anyway. To flash a custom ROM you will need to:
Go to TWRP. Select Wipe and then Advanced wipe.
Then you check:
Dalvik Cache
Cache
Data
System
Internal Storage
Usually afrer come from Stock KK to any CM12 based or AOSP ROM from android 5.x you will need to wipe Internal Storage, something that factory Reset just wont do.
Then you will flash/install
Your Prefered ROM (Paranoid Android is great, BlissPop as well. I'm using Euphoria, another great ROM)
Flash the GAAPs (preferable the one who the dev of the ROM you have chosen say to)
And done. Reboot your device.

Hey, thanks so much for the reply!
I'm not sure which exact version it is, is there a way to check without having to boot the phone?
I did the advanced wipe, however now when I click reboot it says "No OS Installed! Are you sure you want to reboot?" Now that I wiped the internal storage how do I flash the ROM (it was saved there and is now deleted)?
Thanks again.

You must always put the OS flash zip on a MicroSD card.
How ever you can put the USB cable on the PC at TWRP and it should reconize your phone so you can make a file transfer
YOu have done a nanobackup on a micro SD of your KitKat?
If you can't put the rom on a microSD Card (but i really advise you to do) or your PC wont see your phone on TWRP to copy the ROM there...
There is ADB Push
http://www.themobimag.com/install-rom-using-adb/
Good idea to use a microSD, don't know why I didn't think of that. I re-flashed from the SD and now everything works! Thanks so much for your help, really appreciate it!

No problem m8, hope you enjoy the device
On an unrelated note: the one thing I love about my old phone is the stock music app. Is it possible to port it onto this one? I got the APK but when I try to install it it just says "Application not installed". Does this mean it's not possible to use it?

Sence 7.0 ROM not working on Desire 820 Dual Sim
I followed one post on Dev ROM on this forum.
I tried installing the Sence 7.0 ROM on HTC Desire 820 Dual Sim and it installed without any problems but at the end when it asks for Reboot, phone restarted and got stuck in Bootloop.
Could you please help me resolve this problem?
You help will be really appreciated.

This is not the HTC desire forum section, so i can't. Sorry
Hi!
A while back I had some issues with the phone, it was when I was supposed to boot it, it always took 2 tries. It always got stuck, then had to long press the lock key to hard reboot it, then it worked fine. This prevented me from doing a factory reset (in hope to fix (what I later found out was) a media rescan etc). Tried to root it, something happened and it wouldn't boot anymore. Yiti yata and the phone wouldn't boot. Finally I got it back to life with some guide on here and I used whatever 4.4.4 I downloaded.
The software wouldn't find any "normal" update phone updates, so I figured I would try Resurrection Remix 7.1.x (.2 I think it was). At first I got just that it failed with some 2.x twrp version. Updated to TWRP 3.1.x.x (3.1.1.0 if I guess). Now I got to know that it was a TZ error (ERROR 7) from TWRP. This happened to my "RR-N-v5.8.3-20170718-bacon-Official.zip" file. I managed to get around it by doing this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2522762. So I could get this installed, sort of I think. The problem now was that it would show the very first oneplus boot screen for around 20 ish seconds, before it would reboot in a boot loop.
So I tried to install some other CM Lineage Os nightly thing (they said install that and then RR), but that didn't work either. This post was the one I donwloaded from (install this first, then RR should work).
I tried doing this both on TWRP 2.8.6.0 and 3.1.1.0 since I saw some post about the modem not being right from versions newer than 2.8.6.0.
Looking around a bit more I saw in some post someone talking about firmware..? Does this matter anything, also how is this different from the recovery or ROM? (new to this stuff)
In short, last working version of Android I had on there was 4.4.4 (think I followed this post). Using a Mac currently and have no problem with flashing, entering fastboot or recovery.
My procedure when I tried to install RR was:
Install the TWRP 3.1.1.0 or 2.8.6.0 (since I did it several times).
Wipe everything (Have nothing of value on the phone) cache, system, internal storage, dalvik and data. Also did a factory reset (from TWRP) before if that matters.
Copied RR and Gapps 7.1 ARM (not arm64) over.
Installed RR, wiped cache/dalvik. (or linear/cm (post above^^) when I tried that)
Installed Gapps, wiped cache/dalvik.
Boot loop.
Also tried with/without emptying cache/dalvik also chose to install both zips at once.
So can anyone clue in how I can proceed to get RR 7.1 onto my OPO? Any help is very much appreciated
I'm sorry if this wasn't the best post. Have an immense headache at the moment

Calm down.
You're right about that firmware thing,that is the one causing issue when you're trying to flash RR 5.8.3 over KitKat.
This is because the firmware that kitkat comes with,is old and don't support newer android versions,that's because it is made for KitKat only.
Always use latest Twrp(https://dl.twrp.me/bacon/).
Make sure you don't edit any zip like what you did with the Rom zip earlier(devs don't post non-working zips),I'm sure you've a backup of your non-edited zip,if not,re-download the zip.
Now boot into latest twrp,wipe everything except internal storage.
Firmware: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BxysuRdzsJeWeW9JbTNwaUJKb1E/view?usp=drivesdk
Flash the above zip,then without wiping anything flash rom zip(unedited) then flash google apps package(opengapps.org)(optional).
Reboot.It should boot fine now.
Good luck!

Thank you so much! Got it working on 1st try with what you provided! Seems like the firmware thing was the bad guy in this scenario. A little interest, what specifically is the firmware in this case? Either way, rocking RR now and I'm really grateful

I'm glad you got it up and running.
Here are some FAQs:
What is a Firmware? What is Modem?
- Firmware is the whole package of proprietary partitions of your device, modem itself is a NON-HLOS file responsible for your device's communications over Wi-Fi, Mobile Networks and other such stuff.
So what is the difference between firmware and ROM then?
- Firmware is the responsible partition for IMEIs, the modemst partitions hold your IMEI, persist holds your Mac addresses etc.
ROM is only a combination​ of system.img and boot.img (kernel)
What to restore if I loose my IMEI?
- Both the modemst partitions (IMP: considering you took a backup of them before)
What is the default firmware? (default= firmware which comes with the latest CM/ LineageOS 14.1 weeklies)
- c6-00241
Thanks a lot, once again

I am not 100% sure, but I would say, boot into fastboot, flash something like TWRP recovery, then you will be able to access the device files from the recovery. Just reflashing the boot shouldn't mess up anything as far as I am concerned. After that (when you've grabbed all the files you want), flash the newest firmware the guy linked above and install your latest 7.0 ROM

Yes you do. You need that + some software. Check out some "install custom recovery oneplus one" guides, you should be able to find something. Are you on Mac or Windows?
Yes I'm on Windows 10.. I tried removing battery overnight as well .. its not boiling hot anymore but still stuck in bootloop.

Download the Samsung ADB driver or whatever it was called, then flash a new recovery for it. There are multiple guides for doing that. After that you should be able to transfer your files to your pc while being in recovery mode
All I have access to is twrp 3.4 and the all in one tool. Through flashing I screwed up along the way. Can't say where @ this point but just need to make my phone stock again to start over. I've flashed factory OOS 10.3.3, 10.3.4. each time wiping data and dalvik. Re installed twrp 3.4 and magisk 20.4. I've tried flashing aosp roms as well. Had resurection remix installed and wanted to try and go back to OOS and flash renovate ice magisk mod and never got it to boot into 10.3.3 OOS. All that happens is it goes to bootloader unlocked screen and then black with vibration and reboots into twrp. I even have a rr back up and a stock backup that won't take either. This is all being done using an otg. Not familiar with adb on the laptop. I'm familiar with root, unlocking bootloader, and flashing things but from the nexus era. Things are a bit different now and I've been extensively reading and it seems each rom has its own method of flashing. wish I wouldn't have stopped with modding from years ago. Any help is greatly appreciated as I don't currently have a working phone
Format data. Phone will boot then.
Worked perfect, thanks!! Does that have to be formatted after any ROM install including backups? I've looked through the guides and other threads and there isn't a how to step by step explanation of how to flash new Roms or restore backups
Hej everyone,
I flashed a custom rom from mi-globe a few months. It was working great. Then I had the not so incredible idea of updating with latest miui eu 12, because the weekly update from the update menu was not working. It kinda worked, but it got too buggy. So I wanted to come back to a xiaomiEU Stable Rom.
It is now that problems begin. When I flashed miui eu 12, I got recovery loop. Lost all my data trying to fix, but I was able to flash the stock rom via the amazing XiaomiADBFastbootTools in my GNU/Linux distro. It worked! But the main issue is can not flash the custom rom again. I download the custom rom in the internal storage, flash the twrp via fastboot, enter recovery, create full backup, wipe to factory reset and flash the custom rom. Everything seems successful, but then I get a recovery loop again and when I try to restore the backup, the data folder is filled with folders and files with random chars in the names. Apparently the data folder becomes read-only for some reason as well. Then I have to flash the stock rom and tried everything again. I have done it at least 5 times now. I have searched a lot for some solution and nothing works
I have tried the OrangeFox recovery and the mi-globe rom, same issue. I really want a custom rom , but I have no idea what to do anymore. If I could at least restore my backed up stock rom, it would help a lot.
Please help me out and sorry I posted in the wrong section.
