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.

ya, I fastboot flash boot the TWRP img following this video youtu.be/3oSycujvmP8?t=296
I guess I'll start flashing boot images until I land on the correct OS version, thanks

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.

in this case the best thing to do is just unbrick using MSM

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.

What's up everyone. So I unlocked the bootloader of my Verizon pixel OK. I then went to root it and after it rebooted once it seems to be stuck at the jumping dots screen. It's been like 5 minutes. Not sure what I should do.
Any suggestions?
From bootloader:
Using stock boot.img from your version's factory image from Google. (In a zip inside the main zip).
Fastboot flash boot_a boot.img
Fastboot flash boot_b boot.img
Fastboot reboot
Then after setting up your phone try rooting again. You have to boot once stock after unlocking bootloader initially.
If still no dice, use flash-all.bat or .sh to go fully stock, then boot and set device up then reboot to root as per normal directions for your firmware.
Rooting won't cause a second wipe. Just unlocking or flashing factory image.
Do NOT relock bootloader (potential brick).
Sent from my sailfish using XDA Labs
Got it!! Holy Crap brother thank you!!!
Just so I don't do that again, which root files should I be using? I read it may have been caused from using outdated files
Which method did you use to gain root? Fastboot boot boot-to-root.img caused me to bootloop. I restored the factory image, installed TWRP alpha2, then flashed SuperSU 2.78 SR5 from TWRP and all was fine.
yeah i tried the boot boot method. I guess I should try the twrp method. Just so I don't screw up again, do you remember where you got the files. Figure I'll use those if they worked for you.

Thanks! OK so i downloaded the twrp file I'm getting a failed error message. I've renamed the file twrp.img and am using this commmand to flash it fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
What am I doing wrong?
RC1 or Alpha2? RC1 kept giving me md5 mismatch errors. On the TWRP download page both Alpha2 files are also available.
I'm trying to flash alpha 2 and it keeps saying Failed remote partition recovery doesnt exist
Haven't seen that one before. When I tried the boot-to-root method I had to restore a factory image before I could try again.

Yeah I'm totally stumped. I did have to reflash the boot image and am back up and running. just can't seem to get twrp to flash!! I've followed the steps from multiple threads and just can't get it to work.
Any suggestions are welcome
Boot twrp Img, not flash. Then install the twrp zip if you want it to replace the stock recovery.
Which guide says flash..theres a new rc1 out but haven't checked it. You made 2 posts regarding inability to flash but did you Google for the answer?
I kept trying to flash it cause the threads and sites I saw kept using that command. I finally used fastboot boot twrp.img and it worked fine. Also many of the guides don't say you need to have the zip on your phone to flash.
No prob, I worked it out!! Thanks for everyone's responses!!!
I am using op6 with oxygenos 5.1.11 (for unrelated reasons I cannot use android pie yet, so I had to downgrade to android 8.1 until a certain bug is fixed in 9).
I am trying to flash twrp, with no avail: when I use "fastboot flash recovery <twrp.img>", I get "FAILED (remote: '(recovery_a) No such partition')", and when I try using "fastboot boot <twrp.img>", the phone boots into an unresponsive state with a black screen and a white notification led.
what am I doing wrong? I've tried both twrp-3.2.3-x_blu_spark_v9.91_op6.img and the official twrp-3.2.3-1-enchilada.img in place of <twrp.img>, no difference.
Is your bootloader unlocked? (fastboot oem unlock)

of course it is!
First of all you can't flash recovery in fastboot on OP6. You need to boot the image and flash the recovery.zip after that you will have recovery permanently.
BTW why don't you search and have a look at the guide?
This time I do it for you. If you exactly follow these steps you will get recovery working.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/oneplus-6-unlock-bootloader-flash-twrp-t3792643
Follow this video. Remember to use the twrp-3.2.1-0-enchilada.img and twrp-installer-enchilada-3.2.1-0.zip, not the newer files.

Like the others said above, it sounds like you are trying to flash the version of TWRP for Pie onto an Oreo install, you need to get the last stable version of TWRP for Oreo, which I believe is 3.2.1. You'll need both the '.img' and '.zip' files. Good luck!

if you read my original post, I have tried to boot to recovery already, which didn't work. what I was not aware of is that the recovery image is android version-dependent. an old twrp-3.2.3-x_blu_spark_v8.83_op6.img did the job.

Hello fellow A2 Lite owners!
I just got this device today and would LOVE to root 10.0.7.0, However it seems like the only way to go through this is by using a patched boot image which is not viable because none have showed up for 10.0.7.0 yet.
Will there be any other solutions for this? Thank you.

Obviously, It is my preferred way since I used it on a couple of devices including my Redmi Note 4 and Mi Pad.
My concern is not OTA but whether it would somehow break the ROM
Yes, I am aware of Mi Flash, Flashing stock ROMS, and other techniques but it's just that i don't have time for such long endeavors and would like to have a safe-ish way.
However I will try to get twrp running temporarily to install magisk.

I assume you tried "flashing twrp" command, if that's the case it will replace your boot.img to twrp.img that's why it appears the "system has been destroyed" error... Try the "boot twrp command" if you want to access twrp temporarily... Coz right now we cant do(flash full twrp recovery) that as far as I know....

I believe we can I have heard reports offains 3.3.3. Twrp can do it I haven't tryed yet.but I did have twrp with root running on the march update but I'm on pa now
I installed the Stable Android 10 on my GM1910 via TWRP, totally forgetting about maintaining root and TWRP.
So how do I bring back TWRP and root?
fastboot boot doesn't seem to work, I managed to pull the boot.img and patch it with Magisk from another device but flashing it through fastboot ends up in an endless bootanimation.
Could anyone help me? here's a link of the boot.img i pulled, it works if you flash it without magisk patching it.

(Almost) exactly the same here. I tired flashing a patched boot.img, it actually boots - but magisk manager gets stuck on the splash screen and some apps, including chrome, won't start. Trying to boot TWRP results in the phone getting stuck on the "fastboot mode" screen.
My only solution would be to downgrade, root, keep the upgrade this time. But because my ISP is doing some maintenance work I don't have wifi - and restoring my phone through mobile data does not seem to work correctly.
EDIT: In fastboot, neither bootloader version nor baseband version are show, product name is "msmnile". Has this always been that way?
EDIT 2, solution:
I extracted the boot.img from the device, and patched it using magisk on the same phone:

Run this command so you can flash the correct slot :
Code:
fastboot flash boot_X magisk_patched.img
replace X with the a or b from the command before.

Hi sorry to hear that you got this problem and hopefully it gets fixed. I have another question: does that mean using TWRP to completely clean the device then installing Android 10 via zip will remove TWRP and fastboot everything? Does that mean after installing, everything will be refreshed like a box opened phone?

Either one should work if the rom and the rooted boot image is on it (If you are rooting). That's why you should install using TWRP, if you look in the reboot menu it will show you the active slot.

I've read that Q/10 is different and you can't install TWRP like that anymore. Supposedly you need to use the MSM tool or the all-in-one tool but I've tried both of those and still can't boot to TWRP.

Hopefully there will be a solution. I had tried to update from Pie to Q10 while staying rooted and it didn't work. So I had to wipe the whole device and decided to wait for a smoother root method for my device. If you have any other ideas about rooting Q10 let me know. Thank you

I updated my phone to 10 last night, followed the same guide as I have for every other update but this time I lost root for some reason.
I still have TWRP recovery on there but it can't read internal storage so I can't flash Magisk.
I tried changing file system to ext 2 then back to 4 and then repairing it as I read elsewhere and this wiped the phone obviously but internal storage seemed to be working until I set the phone up again, downloaded Magisk, rebooted to recovery and I'm back where I started, internal storage showing as 0mb in TWRP.
Any ideas how to fix?
I am currently on OOS 10 OB2/31 and can't seem to find a way to install TWRP and Magisk. Found ways to install TWRP and Magisk via patched boot images on OOS 10 stable but not for OB2/31.... anyone know why it's not as simple as flashing TWRP via fastboot?
I also have a problem
'OOS10beta31' Root

Because OnePlus upgraded the bootloader in their OOS10 release. One of the changes was disabling the fastboot boot command that you usually needed to boot to TWRP. Without that command, you had to flash the TWRP img files onto the boot partition first in order to be able to boot TWRP.
There are many -- maybe a bit too many -- guides on how to install TWRP on OOS10. Here and here are some I found.
The gist of it is to boot to TWRP by running the fastboot flash boot twrp_file.img command, rebooting to recovery, then flashing the twrp zip file. And that's pretty much it.
PS In my case, I wasn't able to reboot to TWRP by using mauronofrio's twrp-3.3.1-14 version, and had to use his twrp-3.3.1-11 instead.

Thank you for your help, gonna try following those. Hopefully I don't f up and have to do a msm restore. But why would they disable that command?... Just to make everything complicated? Guess I will not stick to Oneplus next year.

Security? Deprecated or soon-to-be-deprecated command? Dunno really, lol.

To be fair, the only difference between this method and the old method is just one word and manually rebooting to recovery. You still have to flash the twrp.zip after flashing from bootloader file to install TWRP, so it's not too radically different.
