Hello I tried flashing Android 11 Beta GSI on my Moto G8 Plus but it would not boot as it always booted to twrp right after. Any help is appreciated ?
P.s: I also factory reset, flashed root again etc. But nothing worked.
EDIT: I figured out I think it has to do with not having the right vendor installed (as which I guess you needed Android 10 stock to have it)

I'm trying to install LOS 16.0 but it just won't work. I've tried using the TWRP 3.3.1-16 Q Unofficial by mauronofrio and it works that I can get into TWRP and can flash the rom and GApps, but then after that process once I try to boot into the OS it is just forever stuck in either fastboot or stuck on the bootloader unlocked warning screen. I did realize that I had to use fastboot flash boot twrp*.img because they disabled fastboot boot twrp*.img in the Android 10 update, but then am I supposed to reflash something on that boot partition now? The whole process is very confusing and the instructions from the LineageOS seem to not work at all. Is there anything I can do right now or is it just not possible to install this until TWRP, or OOS, or something I'm not knowledgeable enough to know about updates?
It's because you are using OOS 10.1 as a base (android 10) and you are trying to install Lineage OS 16 (android 9), so it's quite obvious why it isn't working. Try lineage OS 17 instead.

Lineage OS 17 won't work either. The developer intentionally used OOS 9 as base since fastboot boot command doesn't work yet on OOS 10. OP needs to downgrade to OOS 9 first, whichever of the two Lineage OS versions they wish to use.

I tried this. I downgraded to 9.0.9 and still the fastboot boot command is not working. Apparently this has something to do with the bootloader image itself not being downgraded?
I give up now, my temp phone I was using for holding backups for chat data just randomly wiped itself on havocOS and I've just lost years of chats and stuff and it's got me really down right now. They did fix the fastboot boot issue with today's 10.3.0 update but still nothing is working from any tutorial to get this thing to work on lineage, it just won't boot to it and twrp keeps having errors during flashing. This used to be so much easier on my older phones and I've installed this OS on about 5 phones now but OnePlus 6 just doesn't seem to work no matter what. I'm just going to go back to OOS and hope LineageOS 17.0 will get these issues ironed out by the time it releases. Severely disappointing and a waste of 3 days now but oh well
In my opinion, this is the easiest way to downgrade everything to OOS 9, including bootloader https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/op6-collection-unbrick-tools-t3914109
After that, just unlock the bootloader again like usual and follow the LOS16/17 page's install instructions and you should be good to go.
I tried to install Havoc 3.5 while i was on 10 Ob2, unlocked bootloader and installed patched twrp, then rom. Got stuck in fastboot mode. **** hell i messed everything, later i found fastboot recovery rom from xda, flashed it, thank god it saved me. For me, msm tool was not getting connected, got an error like sahara xyz something... Then after refering to multiple xda threads came to know that most of the present 10 custom roms are based on oos android 9. Then again i used downgrade package from community, reverted back to ob 25 oos (pie), then as usual installation process. So if you are interested in custom roms, downgrade to pie. And again i wanted to go back to complete stock from havoc but unfortunately msm was not responding and fastboot roms wont support upgradation (im not sure), i went to twrp and installed stable 9.0.9 to both partitions + twrp installer. Then 10 oos stable to both partitions + twrp. Then booted up and installed Ob2 again from system updater, lost twrp on that process, then locked bootloader, so mow completely stock ? lot of work for nothing ? oos is better for me.. infact i got used to that. maybe i should purchase another phone to continue the momentum of getting latest updates. crazy oos influence ?
Hey guys i have an issue,
i was running Pixel Experience 10 but on MIUI 10, i couldn't update the last one so i thought to get back to stock rom, update to miui 11 and then get back to my Pixel rom. I DID A F*CKING MISTAKE. I installed the Miui 11 Update through TWRP without restoring the stock miui 10 rom. It worked but i had lost my Pixel rom ( i have a backup), ok then i installed TWRP at the MIUI 11 because recovery mode got me at Xiaomi Recovery for some reason. Inside the TWRP i flashed Disabled forc Encryption, but it didnt flash the Magisk, i reboot to system and after 100 bootloops i tried to go back to recovery mode, it boot at TWRP but since then, the TOUCHSCREEN DOESN'T WORK.. I used xiaomi mi flash tool to return to stock rom, it did, locked the bootloader etc...the touchscreen still doesn't work though... I can connect a mouse with OTG Type-C and i can do anything you tell me in order to fix it.. i have already update to MIUI 11, unlock the bootloader, installed TWRP and have Root. Has anyone any idea or a solution to try?
Thanks everyone in advance.

did you find a solution, I have the same problem. Thanks
I flashed Pixel Experience 13 GSI with no faults but unfortunately as it's still in pre-release it has some issues and bluetooth didn't work for me so I tried to flash the Android 12 PE GSI again but now for some reason won't boot to recovery, if I flash the Android 13 version again it works fine and so does any Android 13 GSI but Android 12 GSI's will only boot to recovery, there are no error messages during fastboot flash, any suggestions are appreciated and I can provide any logs needed just let me know what is required.
Just to clarify I was already running the android 12 version of Pixel Experience before this
Re-flash Stock ROM.
Hi!
I recently made an update to Android 12 (OxygenOS 12.1) on my AC2003. So I tried to install TWRP on it with this Version: https://twrp.me/oneplus/oneplusnord.html and with this one https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ficial-twrp-for-oneplus-nord-testing.4142149/ . The last one was working fine when I had Android 11 still. I set up the ADB drivers as mentioned here: https://developer.android.com/studio/run/win-usb but when I either try to flash or boot any of the 2 images nothing happens :/ any idea what I'm doing wrong?
from what i've gathered, twrp is not working with 12 on oos yet. msm back to 11 and sacrifice. sorry.
Hi All,
I have a new-to-me Oneplus 7 Pro. I have been trying to get Lineage with MicroG running. Well it has been quite the adventure and I have it to the point where I have Lineage running fine, and go to reflash TWRP and have bricked the phone, which takes a bit of time to get back to the point of having Linage running again. Specifics:
Lineage version: lineage-19.1-20221219-microG-guacamole.zip
TWRP Versions: I have found that twrp-3.6.1_11-0-guacamole.img works since my phone is at Android 11.
My questions are:
Are TWRP versions tied to Android versions?
When I am trying to get the last version of TWRP installed I have tried 2 approaches:
fastboot flash recovery
fastboot flash boot
Neither worked, phone always ends up bricked. I have used:
TWRP-3.5.1-guacamole-Nebrassy-3.img
twrp-3.6.1_11-0-guacamole.img
twrp-3.6.2_11-0-guacamole.img
I also have tried to boot the images 1st using: fastboot boot twrp-3.6.1_11-0-guacamole.img
and that bricks things.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks
Ray

If you look at the official installation page for your phone, you will see that Lineage OS 20 and 19.1 are supported. So you should reinstall Lineage OS 18.1 again, and then follow the steps on this page. Don't bother reinstalling GAPPS until after you upgrade it.
If for whatever reason you don't want an Android version higher than 11, let me know.
I specifically don't want GAPPS or anything remotely Google related. I had tried OS 20 and found that I had a problem installing apps - probably user error, but I don't need the latest and greatest. I am currently at Android 11.
I will read through the instructions, although the number of tutorials I have gone through is craze.
Can you tell me what the relationship between TWRP and Android version is, and are you able to sus out what I did wrong with my efforts to get TWRP loaded over the lineage 19 version I was using?
Thanks
Ray

So I guess you don't want GAPPS, just MicroG. Definitely read through the instructions I gave you, as they are the official installation and upgrade instructions.
I would recommend installing Lineage OS 20, because it is the version that is being maintained right now.
I will attempt to guide you through the steps, but I need to know what your situation is right now: Is your bootloader unlocked? What OS do you have installed right now? What recovery are you using? etc.
I appreciate your help. Currently I am looking at a freshly updated phone with Android 11, and Oxygen 11.0.9.1.GM21AA.
The phone is a GM1917
Bootloader is unlocked and I am in developer mode. I have adb and fastboot loaded on my computer. I also have a working version of msm as I have bricked this thing 6 or 7 times...
Several times now, I have done the following:
Install TWRP
Install Lineage
Try and reflash TWRP <-- consistently fails at this point, gets stuck in a boot loop in the bootloader screen
Thanks

"Try and reflash TWRP" what do you mean, update the OS over TWRP?
I mean trying to re-install TWRP after installing Lineage

OK. Can you try following the installation instructions and skip the unlock bootloader step? Do so at your own risk, because the steps say you have to be on Android 12 first. If you do follow them, just make sure you follow them very carefully.

To my knowledge the guides that are provided on the TWRP site don't work for Android 12 and 13. From what I've heard, you have to root your phone and then install TWRP through Magisk.

The guides I linked to point to the official Lineage OS instructions, right?

Yeah, but I was just saying how they should probably reflash TWRP instead of how TWRP's site says to, which doesn't work

This build uses Lineage OS Recovery instead of TWRP.

I know, but TWRP can be installed with Android 13 custom roms according to the TWRP thread.
