Heyo!
So.. I recently got the 930F and rooted successful with odin, but my question is now, how do I successfully flash a working TWRP without having all the issues ppl describe below the twrp thread for sgs7?
greetz
after flashing TWRP with odin, enter your new recovery.
Wipe everything, then flash the rest of the files. You won't be able to boot otherwise.
You must in Odin remove the hook at autoreboot.
And then manually switch off the mobile phone with "Home-Vol--Power", then start with "Home-Vol+-Power" and wait until the TWRP screen comes and then let go.

But I didnt flash TWRP yet, cuz I used the CF-Root method by Chainfire, just rooted with odin and got supersu installed, i cant even boot into a recovery? my phone just starts normally, doesnt samsung have a normal recovery?
can I just re-root with a method with TWRP included without worries or am I gonna brick my phone?

Why would you suggest a full wipe? Is it needed?
I did the same thing... used CF-Auto-Root to root my S7 and noticed that I didn't have TWRP. So I just downloaded TWRP Manager from the Play Store and used that to flash TWRP to Recovery. It worked perfectly as far as I can tell, no need to wipe anything.
Unless I've missed something?

The full wipe will disable data & sd encryption, so you will not face any problem while flashing roms & kernals, or creating twrp backup.

I don't know if I'm too late, but this is what I did and it was the easiest way to get TWRP.
Go to the Play Store and download 'TWRP Manager App', when on there hit 'Install TWRP', look for the SG7 type for TWRP and choose the latest datedTWRP (People tend to get Recovery is not seandroid enforcing error because they use an out-of-date recovery image).
It will say there was an error flashing recovery and give the option to Reboot or Reboot Later, but it actually has managed to get TWRP onto your phone so just reboot there and then.
Boom you have TWRP; remember the first thing to do is Format Data.
Good Luck

Format data when I first boot the phone after the twrp-installation-restart? or before flashing rom/kernel?

Format Data after TWRP Installation because our S7 phone has dm-verity and you will not be able to flash zips and ROMs properly. Formatting will get rid of that verity encryption.
Another reason why to format data after TWRP installation is because as this method does not fully get rid of stock recovery and is left dormant, so formatting the data will let TWRP read your Data.

Nope. That is not part of the Data partition so the format shouldn't affect - IMEI No. is part of the EFS partition.
If you do come with any problems though, quote me and I'm here to help. But believe I'm telling you what even I did and I'm running ROMS and shiz now.
Hi,
I have a VZW Quark that's been unlocked with Sunshine and rooted and running fine on custom ROM's for a year. Today I did a factory reset and complete wipe and reinstalled RR Rom and GApps etc. However, on reboot, it only goes back to recovery (TWRP 3.1.1-0). I faced this the last time as well and managed to find the fix by googling it but can't seem to get to it now. It was a quick fix and then it booted to system fine and I cannot remember it. Can anyone help! Thanks.

Someone else had this issue and they solved it by flashing the latest @bhb27 modded TWRP. You say you have TWRP 3.1.1, but is it from the TWRP website or from @bhb27? Flash this one below to make sure.
twrp-3.1.1-mod_2-quark.img
https://androidfilehost.com/?w=files&flid=39562
Once they flashed it, they were able to boot to system, then they booted back to TWRP (on purpose) -- and then upon subsequent reboots everything was fine.
See here:

@bhb27 Im face a problem, since I do a clean install build 08/23, when my phone restart, it always boot into TWRP, and I need to boot to bootloader and press START to start system normally.
Maybe Im doing something worng due the install process, (full wipe include internal storage, flash Crdroid, flash Gapps, reboot), I try to flash boot.img and new TWRP 3.1.1 recovery.img, but got a same results.
Please help, thanks a lot.

You may not be using the TWRP made by me, check TWRP thread and use the twrp-3.1.1-mod_2-quark.img version that is in the afh mirror folder if you are not using that... also try to update the ROM as 8/23 is one month old on updates...

That didn't work? Really strange tho
See this. This article only applies to users running TWRP recovery on a rooted device. Don't have TWRP or don't know what this means? You're probably fine.
If you've recently installed or updated TWRP recovery, you might have faced that you can't install anything with it, and that the start screen is immediately shown when updating your device via Oxygen Updater.
Why is this happening to me?
From what it seems, this issue is caused by TWRP versions 3.2.2-0 and 3.2.3-0 being incompatible with the storage encryption technology present on OnePlus devices.
Normally, you're asked to enter your PIN or unlock pattern before installing an update / flashing something yourself. However, these new TWRP versions don't prompt for it anymore. Therefore, accessing the storage space of your device is no longer possible.
This is really frustrating, as almost all of your updates / .zip files are stored there. But luckily, there is a solution:
How do I fix this issue?
First of all, if you don't have encryption turned on or are not facing this issue, do not proceed with the steps below since flashing a new version of TWRP can be risky.
Now for the the solution: it involves downgrading TWRP to an earlier version, in which installing updates still worked correctly.
The downgrade can be done either by using a computer with the fastboot command, or by using flashing apps such as the Official TWRP app or Flashify on your device itself.
These are the steps you'll need to do:
- Make sure to download TWRP version 3.2.1-1 for your specific device. This is the version which worked fine, and is still fairly recent.
- Flash the version of TWRP using your method of choice. For fastboot users, connect your device to your computer in Fastboot mode and type fastboot flash recovery twrp-3.2.1-1-<yourdevice>.img. When using any of the flashing apps, browse to the correct TWRP.img file and flash it.
- Reboot your device. You'll now be able to access the working version of TWRP
- Do not update your TWRP version until it has been confirmed that this issue has been resolved.
Thanks to Peter Aarnoutse for reporting this issue.

Thanks but I really don't understand this....first I don't know if encryption is on ? Don't think I have turned it off...2nd 3.2.2.0 worked fine for me before..I installed 5.1.9 and 5.1.11 with no problems.....it was when I tried to reinstall 5.1.11 and forgot to remove security features this happened now?
How old is this thread about TWRP 3.2.2.0 ?
It happened to me since the first time. what i do is wipe everything except internal, flash rom, flash twrp, reboot twrp, boot system, and then after set up, reboot recovery and flash magisk.
I dont know what is the problem ive never used a security feature.(maybe thats my problem)

Geez ...now when I go to reboot to recovery it gives me a warning " No OS installed, are you sure you want to reboot?? " what do I do now ??
After i wanted to install Android P, i got a bootloop. so i wanted to go to twrp but now my files are encrypted and twrp is not asking for a pin or pattern so i can't decrypt my internal storage files.
Now the biggest problem is that i just came back from a family weekend and i made a lot of pictures, witch i can't acces now, and i really want them back.
Now i can't install a new os or anything ...
Can someone please help me! i'm really despirate
(sorry for my bad english)
Try downgrading twrp , night get it to ask for pin
downgrading is never the answer. In fact, that will cause this problem to happen. Now i must ask, are you temp booting twrp or is twrp installed to phone.
I got this when I temp booted the mtp enabled twrp the other day, although it still asked for my passcode and said description was successful. When I rebooted the installed (official) twrp it all came back....

Now i am booting from temp twrp, before that i got the latest twrp installed
Bringing this back up... Did booting from temp twrp work? Ran into the same issue.
Temp boot and use the usb c to pull ur data from the device to a computer. After that you can wipe and start over. Unbricking guide available in the help section
Having the same issue. If I boot using fastboot TWRP I'm able to decrypt data. I did that and flashed stock OOS and the same TWRP version (BluSpark) that was used in the fastboot. But the folders are still encrypted. It's weird how a fastboot can decrypt it but a regular recovery boot can't. Is there any alternatives available?
I'm in the process of backing up my data before I officially bite the bullet.

Hi guys
I was trying some of custom rom on my OP6 and I wanted to go back to Oxygen OS. So i did a clean installation with system wipe and i flashed the last full OTA update. But since i can't boot to system anymore, TWRP always displays that there is no OS installed despite the fact that I've tried several rom . Is this the first time it's done this to me how can I fix it?

The best suggestion I can give you is to flash stock oos with TWRP, reboot to stock recovery, without flashing anything else, wipe data from stock recovery and startup system.. if it is working you can flash back TWRP and magisk if you need it
Just be careful because at your point is easy to lose all of your stored data

If you wipe system, then flash oos ROM, TWRP will think there is no os. You can just ignore and boot.
Wiping system then flashing any time will make twrp display "no os installed" it does this because it hasn't created files for twrp to check if you have a ton installed. Flashing twrp then rebooting to twrp fixes it.
Reboot to stock recovery?

Hi, need a little bit of support, since I'm new to this as well. I was in a working OOS open beta 25/28, but then I think I flashed the wrong zip (OOS 9.0.9?), and I was not able to boot to system. It kept going to "bootloader unlocked" screen and custom recovery. Currently in TWRP blu_spark 3.3.1-x v. 9.109, and it's showing me no OS installed when I attempt to reboot. I haven't rebooted to system yet.
All the folders in my /sdcard is gibberish... if I try to push a file to it, it says "Required key not available." I did remove all security/passwords from my phone before doing any updates/backups.
I completed a wipe cache/dalvik/system via TWRP, and flashed the OOS OTA stable Android 10 zip downloaded directly from OnePlus Support. Considering this situation, do you still think it's safe for me to reboot to system? Then how do I get to stock recovery from there--is that by holding down the buttons?

No, your internal storage Is like trash cause the last rom you flashed has older security patch than oos10. Your device Is now encrypted and wont boot to system. I Guess you have to erase all via MSN tool or fastboot signed rom. Even if you wiped what mentioned above, your problem still be the data.
Fastboot method?

Thank you for replying. I'm relieved that you know of a couple methods to try.
Is using "Format Data" in TWRP an option for dealing with the encryption??
For the MSN tool, can I use this one? Tried looking around, but it's unclear. "[TOOL] MsmDownloadTool V4.0 International (Oxygen OS 5.1.5)" https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...wnloadtool-v4-0-international-t3798892/page10
I would be more comfortable with using fastboot, but am I at any risk of having lost fastboot, or can I just turn off my device from TWRP right now and hold down the buttons to get there? Afraid to move out of TWRP right now, in case I can't get back. I do have twrp-3.3.1-18-enchilada-Q-mauronofrio.img that I can run from fastboot if needed.
By "signed rom," do you mean I can simply flash one of the zips here from fastboot? "[OnePlus 6][ROM][OTA][Oxygen OS] Mirrors for official Oxygen OS ROMs and OTA updates" https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/oneplus-6-mirrors-official-oxygen-os-t3792244

I hardbricked my device about 10 times and i was able to recovery It even from a blank screen. Btw format data Will erase all your data but also the internal storage. About fastboot dont be afraid, go under twrp reboot section and reboot to bootloader. Then go under xda op6 guide section and search for mirrors for fastboot rom guide by Mauronofrio. He pushed my ass out the **** a lot of time.
P.s. Sorry but I dunno how to paste a link via xda app. Yes, ik! It's a vert newbie thing.

Thank you for replying. I'm relieved that you know of a couple methods to try.
Is using "Format Data" in TWRP an option for dealing with the encryption??
For the MSN tool, can I use this one? Tried looking around, but it's unclear. "[TOOL] MsmDownloadTool V4.0 International (Oxygen OS 5.1.5)" https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...wnloadtool-v4-0-international-t3798892/page10
I would be more comfortable with using fastboot, but am I at any risk of having lost fastboot, or can I just turn off my device from TWRP right now and hold down the buttons to get there? Afraid to move out of TWRP right now, in case I can't get back. I do have twrp-3.3.1-18-enchilada-Q-mauronofrio.img that I can run from fastboot if needed.
By "signed rom," do you mean I can simply flash one of the zips here from fastboot? "[OnePlus 6][ROM][OTA][Oxygen OS] Mirrors for official Oxygen OS ROMs and OTA updates" https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/oneplus-6-mirrors-official-oxygen-os-t3792244
Thanks again.

That's awesome, I'm starting to grasp how much of a genius Mauronofrio is, after so many people referencing his work.
In his guide, he says, "These ROMs can't be used to update or downgrade your phone but just to restore your phone, so don't use them to come back to oreo or to update from oreo to pie." This may be a dumb question, but how do I know which zip/OOS version to flash, when I don't have a functioning OS on my phone?

I talked with Mauronofrio in pm and he said me that you could solve your issue simply flash the ROM you want and format data after flash that one. Remember that your internal will be wiped but it would happen in any scenario we talked.
Magisk, boot img?

That worked! And starstruck that you were able to check that with him. I flashed Mauronofrio's fastboot ROM for 10.3.2 and it rebooted (WOW). I clicked through the Google setup pages and checked that my data and wifi worked.
I then went back into fastboot, booted M's twrp img, fomatted data, and then installed twrp-3.3.1-x_blu_spark_v9.109_op6.zip, rebooted into recovery.
Then I think I made a mistake, because I installed Magisk-v20.4.zip. It succeeded, but now I can't boot into system anymore. Is it too late to flash the 10.3.2 boot.img?

No. Just flash stock boot image if magisk broke something.
Rooted

I ended up following the guide to Magisk Root without TWRP for OnePlus 6 Oxygen OS https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6/how-to/patched-boot-image-magisk-16-7-beta-t3818853 since it was referenced by Mauronofrio's post for having issues getting his TWRP to work with latest Magisk.
Someone posted a patched boot.img for 10.3.2, so now I'm rooted without TWRP. Priorities. Now all I need is for special characters and emojis to work Will keep an eye on other threads.
I'm learning a lot, thanks so much for all your help. You pointed me in the right direction when I was not sure what the hell to do!
