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 ?
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)
Hello,
I'm using the OnePlus IN2013 on Oxygen OS 11.0.1.1.IN21BA.
My bootloader isn't even unlocked yet, but I want to do so, to install Magisk on my phone.
I've found the TWRP Thread in the Cross Development category, but it seems like twrp is not android 11 ready.
What should I do now? Is there any other recovery? Should I go back to android 10?
Do you think twrp is getting released for Android 11 soon?
You just have to be patient, TWRP will hopefully happen sooner rather than later for Andriod 11.
You can still root with magisk and a patched bootlooder.
Instructions are linked.

Yep, TWRP for A11 will eventually get here... stay cool ?
I'm on Stock OOS 11 with all the latest firmware installed and no more updates from oneplus.
So I tried to flash lineage os 18.1 on my Oneplus 6 (enchilada).
I followed every step, unlock bootloader, flash lineage recovery to boot and use lineage recovery to copy partitions and install lineage os
and open gapps.
But when I reboot finally I get stuck in the Lineage OS boot animation. Can't get past that even after 2+ hours. Tried to reflash many times
with the same procedure.
Finally I gave up and used MSM Download Tool to get back to stock OOS 10 and then updated again to the latest version of OOS from oneplus.
Now what should I do different, to install Lineage OS 18.1 in my oneplus 6(enchilada)?
SOLVED:
The latest nightly has a major bug hopefully the future release may fix it. Until then use 220104 nightly and don't update through OTA.
Wait until next build comes with the reverted commit.
Revert "adbconnection: don't spin if adbd isn't running." Breaks boot for many devices.
I tried so hard to root my phone before but it didn't work i found out that the issue is about the last update, the last update doesn't support twrp cuz of android 12. So i download the previous frimware (miui 12.5, android 11) and flashed and it worked. I rooted my phone using twrp. My question is : now i have a notification about the new update to miui 13 Android 12 if i update my phone will i lose root?!
Twrp not is compatible with Android 12, but You can root with magysk patching the boot img
