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.

I was attempting to restore my Boot.img and recovery.img (stock version B385) so I could update to the latest B388 package. This did not seem to work out well. I'm not sure if I fat fingered the wrong recovery file or what, but, I can't get to recovery. More importantly, I can't get to fastboot !
I have tried adb commands to reboot into fastboot and i've tried the volume - and plugging in USB cable while connected to PC.
Both of the above steps result in phone booting like normal. Phone seems 100% usable, I just can't do anything with it regarding recovery/bootloader.
Anyone have ideas? or am I stuck here?
thanks again
Well, I think I got lucky here. I have a feeling I did flash the wrong image into the recovery partition and it messed up fastboot too. but, regardless, I was able to turn phone off. Then I held power, vol -, vol+ for a while until I got the EMUI update screen. Then, after rebooting, I was able to issue adb reboot fastboot.
yay

With Huawei/Honor, we could easily mess up in seconds. wrong image flashing could lead to severe issue and sometime we may not be able to restore the same. Luckily you were able to get what you were looking for.
Hi everyone.
Well it's a well known issue of yuphoria to get stuck on bootloop and you can find many youtube video to fix it too. My yuphoria is now experiencing the same problem. It is stuck in bootloop. Thing that is different in my case is it bootloops on anything. Even if i connect it to a power source or a laptop, it start itself and get stuck in bootloop. I also noticed that it is not recognized by my laptop in adb command prompt so i cant even rely on traditional "boot in recovery method". I tried to put it manually on fastboot mode by pressing down the pwer key along with vol down key. It does reboot in fastboot mode but still is unrecognizable by adb fastboot commands. I flashed bootleggers rom that was based on oreo 8.1 and was my daily driver on this device. Worked quite well too. I also installed twrp recovery but it seems to be absent now as I cant enter in recovery mode in anyway. Please suggest some means to fix this device. Thanks in advance.
I recently applied the latest OxygenOS update, but it unrooted my phone. So, I attempted to re-root it, starting with step 3 from this guide. (Since the bootloader was still unlocked, I didn't think that I needed to unlock it again.) When I tried to use "fastboot boot" to load the TWRP image, it got stuck on the "Fastboot Mode" screen.
I can't do anything with it, now. If I hold down the power button, it doesn't shut off. ADB doesn't recognize the device anymore. What can I do? (BTW, I'm on Linux, and all of the unbricking tools I've seen look like they're Windows-only?)
It turned out I wasn't holding it down long enough. I had to hold power + volume up. Finally got TWRP installed by using the maunofrio files.
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?
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!
