IN2017/TMO flashing Global failure, stuck with CrashDump & Fastboot, no EDL/MSM, etc. - OnePlus 8 Questions & Answers

Hi guys,
I think I've tried it all at this point so I'm in need of some help.
I've got the T-Mobile IN2017 version of the OP8. I wanted to get rid of the T-Mobile junk and get access to the "regular" updates.
I started with this guide: [Guide] Convert to Global [WIP]
I got my unlock token today and gave 11.0.0-GLOBAL-OnePlus8Oxygen_15.O.30_OTA_0300_all_2010031624_c5e68b42b3325-FASTBOOT a shot. When it booted into Rescue Mode I assumed something had gone wrong so I told it to wipe everything and I figured I'd start over. I realized this was probably a good thing because I had neglected to backup anything.
I used instantnoodlet_15_O.16_201001 to reset. I couldn't get the volume up + volume down combination to work at all so used adb to reboot in edl. All went well.
I then re-unlocked the bootloader, flash booted into twrp-3.3.1-test10-instantnoodle-unified-mauronofrio.img and made some backups.
I installed the latest Magisk (changing .apk to .zip) within TWRP, and used adb shell to make a backup of my persist.img
I went back to 11.0.0-GLOBAL-OnePlus8Oxygen_15.O.30_OTA_0300_all_2010031624_c5e68b42b3325-FASTBOOT and ran the flash-all.bat but this time it failed and I've found myself bricked: CrashDump Mode.
I've only been able to switch betwen CrashDump Mode, off, and Fastboot. When I'm in Fastboot if I try to start or boot in recovery it just ends up back at CrashDump. If I do a hard power off and try holding volume up + down to get into edl I end up at Fastboot again as soon as I plug the usb in. The commands fastboot reboot edl, fastboot oem edl, and fastboot reboot-edl all give me errors. I can no longer flash boot into TWRP. I've tried flashing the 11.0.0 Global again but I get "Flashing is not allowed for critical partitions" and "partition not found" errors before I end up back at the CrashDump screen.
When in CrashDump it shows up in my device manager as Qualcomm HS-USB Diagnostics 900E (COM13). When I'm in fastboot it appears as OnePlus Android Bootloader Interace. I have uninstalled the drivers and reinstalled the drivers (OnePlus_USB_Drivers_Setup, QDLoader HS-USB Driver_64Bit, androidwinusb). I'm using the latest Platform Tools. I am in test mode and I have turned off driver signature.
I only have two USB 3.0 ports and I don't have access to another Windows PC. I have used three different USB cables, including the OnePlus original, in both ports. I have taken off my phone case to make sure nothing is interfering with me pushing volume up + down. My thumb hurts from pressing it so much. I've done this dozens of times now. No EDL.
I'm at a loss. Someone please help me!
Edit: I've tried using the All-In-One-Tool but it says reboot to EDL doesn't work because I'm in fastboot and trying to boot into the latest twrp still just sends me back to CrashDump.

Solved!
I came across this twrp guide: [TWRP][3.6.0-11-b7][instantnoodle]TWRP for OnePlus 8/8Pro ][OFFICIAL][BETA] and unlike the other I had used, this one didn't warn against flashing and only booting. I flashed the img for twrp-op8-3.6.0_11-infected-b4 to recovery_a and recovery_b and booted into recovery. At first it just said I was in fastboot, it didn't give me all the usual twrp options, and the only buttons were to reboot and to switch between fastboot and adb (which did nothing, it stayed in fastboot). I tried to reboot to edl and ended up back at the fastboot screen. From here I tried again to boot into recovery and this time I got all the usual twrp options. I rebooted into edl and was able to successfully unbrick with the 10.5.7 MSM. Flashed the global 10.5.7 MSM and I'm set. Updated to A11 and everything is groovy!

Cannot revive my phone

My note 6 pro suddenly started doing boot loop. I tried to revive it by flashing stock firmware but nothing seems to help. It has unlocked bootloader, with TWRP installed. This is what I tried:
Put phone in fastboot mode, I do see the fastboot image.
Computer recognizes the phone. 'fastboot devices' shows correct device.
Using MI Flash tool to flash 10.3.6 global fastboot image. It takes about 160 seconds to flash all the partitions. The phone will reboot at the the end of the flash. Flash tool doesn't say "successful" though. Its status is still "flashing".
No other errors. When the phone restarts, it is still stuck in the boot loop. Interesting thing is, if I press volume + button and power button, I see TWRP flash for a quick second on the screen then boot again. Looks like the recovery image wasn't flashed properly.
Looked at the logs. Nothing strange. Also tried to run 'flash-all.bat' in a command line (not sure if we are supposed to do that), but all the fastboot flash commands look OK.
Anything else I can do to revive this phone?

Phone Bricked - HELP!

A while ago i installed Lineage OS onto my OP7Pro without issue. I am now trying to go back to the stock OP OS.
I seem to have completely wiped the storage and now I just get "Qualcomm Crashdump Mode dm-verity device corrupted force dump kernal_restart".
I installed twrp on my PC and managed to boot the phone into twrp, I then pushed the twrp-installer.zip to the phone using adb, and then using the phone installed the zip, however when the phone reboots it just goes straight back to the Qualcomm Crashdump screen.
I have tried:
fastboot boot twrp.img (sucessfully boots phone into twrp)
adb sideload twrp-installer-3.5.2_9-0-guacamole.zip (adb confirmed sucessfull but then I can not find the file on the phone)
adb push twrp-installer-3.5.2_9-0-guacamole.zip /sdcard/ (when I go the install on twrp the file is there and I can install it)
But after reboot it's just straight back to Qualcomm Crashdump.
I tried msm and that didn't work, it would not detect the device.
Can anyone please help??
Try:
fastboot --set-active=other
Then fastboot boot TWRP.img
Install any ROM.zip or stockOOS.zip reboot to fastboot, boot TWRP and flash magisk.
If that doesn't work try again with msmtool, remember press both volume buttons for 5 seconds and connect USB cable(still pressing volume buttons) and your device should be detected

Bricked Oneplus 8T (device state - locked) data recovery

Hi All!
I am in a bit of an unfortunate situation, and am also not that knowledgeable with Android.
I want to recover data on my phone, I would be happy with just recovering the photos.
My Oneplus 8T currently gives me a Quallcom crash dump error when trying to boot. I am also able to go into Fastboot mode with the power button + volume up/down.
Just now, I tried booting the device to TWRP recovery. I first installed Google usb driver, then updated the driver of my Oneplus 8T in device manager. I installed a TWRP recovery image of a Oneplus 8T and put that file where I downloaded Google platform tools. I then ran 'fastboot devices' and saw my device. However, after running 'fastboot boot twrp.img', I received the error 'boot is not allowed in Lock state'.
I cannot remember if USB debugging is enabled or not. I would really appreciate it if anyone could help me out as online articles have been quite useless and also very confusing.
Try fastboot getvar all then do fastboot set_active to either a or b depending on which partion you are on you want to change it also pretty sure USB debugging doesn't matter in bootloader you can also try fastboot oem unlock to unlock bootloader to boot twrp unless you updated to oos twrp doesn't work yet
No no no no.
you have loaded dynamic system image = Super image with incorrect.
Go to this link https://onepluscommunityserver.com/list/Unbrick_Tools/OnePlus_8T/
And choose your union and version you want.
Download better driver https://onepluscommunityserver.com/list/Unbrick_Tools/Qualcomm drivers.7z
Now you can use the MSM download troll and get your phone back. Install driver and unzip MSM. Start MSM with admin. Select download mode in MSM. Now press power and vol - and vol + at the same time. Your PC will see a new device. Your phone screen is black. Start MSM and wait for it to finish. Google Translate.

With MSM he will get everything wiped on his device. This is not he is intending to do.

Run fastboot flash recovery twrp.img ... And then fastboot reboot recovery or choose recovery on your phone.
Sometimes holding volume up and power to do a soft reset boots back into system worth a try.

Stuck in fastboot

Hey everyone,
I tried flashing Paranoid Android Sapphire Alpha 3 on my OnePlus 8. I rolled back to OxygenOS 11, tried to flash the ROM through fastboot and got a partition error. After that I was stuck in Qualcomm CrashDump mode. Some hours later while trying to make the MSM tool work the phone somehow started again and updated to OxygenOS 12, but I had no network coverage, so I tried flashing the stock ROM to see if that could fix it. Now I'm stuck in fastboot mode with no way to get out.
I already tried several volume + power buttons combinations with no avail, tried to use fastboot reboot, fastboot reboot fastboot, but I'm still stuck in fastboot mode, also when trying to navigate through the fastboot menu with the volume keys, it seems like the volume up key is stuck and cycles through the options endlessly so I can't choose to power it off (I'm pretty sure that button wasn't stuck before, so it might have been something that came up with the faulty stock ROM flash).
Does anyone know what I can try? Thank you.
EDIT: It seems like I can power it off while not connected to the PC. But as soon as I plug it it goes to fastboot mode.

[HELP] OnePlus Nord booting only to fastboot mode.

I tried installing the pixel experience rom and after I flashed the aex recovery before side loading the ROM, it went into bootloop and ended up with the stock recovery and ROM. I tried to flash TWRP recovery and go a message that the the boot/recovery image is destroyed so I tried to flash the stock boot image back and since then I am not able to get it out of fastboot mode.
I tried everything, flashing the recovery again, both stock and TWRP and also tried using the flash-all to flash the stock ROM back but nothing seems to be working.
When using the flash-all, I get 'partitions not found' and 'flashing is not allowed in critical partitions' error.
I even tried msmtool but I am not able to get my phone into edl mode for the tool to detect it.
Tried holding the vol+/vol- and connecting the usb cable but to no vain, the tool does not seem to detect it.
I even tried using the all-in-one tool but my phone is not getting detected when it is turned off but it gets detected when it's in flashboot mode from where I cannot enter edl.
Let me know if there is anything I can do to fix it? Or if taking the phone to the official service center help?
Can you reboot from fastboot to edl by entering fastboot reboot-edl? Or similar, don't know exactly anymore
Alternatively see if this can help you getting into edl: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/guide-how-to-reboot-to-edl-from-fastboot.3394292/
