OnePlus one does not go into recovery after updating it

Hello everyone, I'll tell you what happened
First I was in CM13.1, then I flashed to oxygen OS 3.1.4 custom
(When I flash the ROM, without warning me the recovery was updated to the version TWRP 3.0.3-2TugaPower, previously being in a version inferior to 2.8)
After logging in to the new recovery, I noticed that the recovery version was not on the TWRP page, so I decided to flash the most recent version of TWRP (twrp-3.1.1-0-bacon.img), flashe it through Android sdk (Fastboot), everything went well the pc recognized me the OPO in fastboot Mode and flashe the recovery without problems, the problem came when I try to enter the new recovery the OPO does not enter the recovery stays in the OnePlus Logo.
(Before updating the recovery I tried to restate the backup of my previous rom CM13.1 but when I was going to restart it it stays in the OnePlus logo, and when I go to recovery I fixed that in the section of "Mount" system is not checked , Active but still the same, and when I return to recovery is removed.)
I ask you if you can give me ideas to be able to have recovery again and revive my OPO plz.

I guess you didn't read the OP of Oxygen Os correctly,he clearly mentioned that this 'Tuga Power Recovery' is patched to work with Oxygen Os's firmware and one should not flash any other recovery.Now,what you can do is this,
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B-ikULjZZlloNHpOdVBrTzQxZzQ/view?usp=drive_web
> Download This file, install it somewhere and run Revert-2-CM.exe. Make sure you have fastboot drivers installed or it wont work.Avoid using any Antivirus program while doing this as they might give false alarms.After this you'll be restored to TWRP then you can flash any rom you want.The reason due to which you weren't able to find 'TugaPower Recovery' on TWRP page is because this is an Unofficial Recovery.

Question
What does the program do with the OPO?

If you are familiar with fastboot commands, this method should work. Had my OnePlus in the same situation last night messing around with Efidroid. Phone was bootlooping. Efidroid boot menu as well as recovery mode were both inaccessible. I had tried several other things but none worked for me. *CAUTION: this method did ERASE my userdata.* I downloaded a fastboot-able stock full firmware zip, then manually reflashed device. My beloved OnePlus is no longer my daily driver but still my fave device to experiment with so I just used COS 13.1 file. After full reboot, I downloaded and flashed official TWRP. Device is fully functional again, but without OOS installed.

It'll change your firmware and alter your recovery to a functional TWRP.You'll lose Oxygen Os after doing this.Though you can use this anytime when not being able to flash TWRP.

What should i do
Thanks a lot thanks to the method you told me my OPO has recovery again really thanks, but I have a question, I still in the TugaPower recovery, should I flash the stock recovery or the newest version of TWRP?
Because I do not know if flashing again the TWRP will happen the same

Honor 6X infinite boot

Hi everybody,
I'm here to ask for help cause i have a problem with my honor 6X.
I was looking to implement carstream on it in order to have access to my youtube playlists. So i did the following :
- Find the Bootloader code for unlocking
- I unlocked the bootloader with the appropriate commands. After that i got the message that the phone was unlocked on boot
- After that i flashed TWRP in order to have a recovery custom. It worked well and i was having the TWRP menu when booting the phone with the volume up and power button
- Next, i tried to root the phone by adding magisk. Flash on TWRP did well but after the first boot i was asked by a message to insert the password to unlock phone crypting. I wasn't having this password so i tried to flash magisk again. After two flash the phone was booting correctly and i set it up. I installed Root checker and the phone was correctly rooted. The only problem was that i couldn't access to some parameters options like developer mode or unknown sources. The parameter app was closing when trying to access this options.
- As the problem looked to be from the OS i tried to implement a custom one (Pixel Experience) using the TWRP recovery i added before. After that everything started to go wrong. When i was in flash menu of TWRP i didn't know which partition to use in order to flash the system.img file. I choose the system partition to do it and operation was done. I boot the phone and after that but it stayed frozen on the boot image (honor on blue background).
- After a whole night waiting for the phone to boot i tried to boot on the TWRP recovery in order to add a new custom rom but i couldn't do it. Th e only recovery i have access is EMUI recovery. I tried to do a backup on the EMUI recovery but the phone still don't want to boot.
As th e situation looks critical i ask you for some help in order to avoid to make it worst. I currently have access to the recovery EMUI and i'm pretty sure to fastboot too even if i didn't try. First step know is to try to make the phone working again and maybe with some help try to implement carstream again.
Thank you for your help

OnePlus 6 suddendly stucks on boot animation

Hey folks,
I have a big problem.
My OnePlus 6 suddenly stopped responding today and then the power went out. When I restart I can no longer get out of boot animation. Although I thought I had a custom recovery this is also stock again and unfortunately I also no longer know for sure which Android version I last had.
So I downloaded the firmware here and wanted to flash it via fastboot.

I can switch to fastboot mode, but I read that I can't flash full OTA zips there. So I wanted to try it via adb, but the stock recovery does not seem to have this function.
Fortunately I do not often have problems, but that's why I'm stuck now.
If possible I don't want to lose any data.
I hope someone can help.
Thanks!

Hey, so TWRP works meanwhile officially on actual Android versions? Last time I tried only mods maybe works. Thx

Hey @vkass
haven't time to do it earlier.
The part with the TWRP works well but when I try to flash "OnePlus6Oxygen_22.J.52_OTA_052_all_2103022341_f3ff04643ea24e51.zip" after reboot the phone is only able to boot into Recovery (of cource default recovery).
Do I need to install Magisk?
Would have tried with the "Magisk-24.2.zip", but TWRP says it is invalid.
Thanks!
mcdy

Because you flashed an old android 10 zip.

Hey @vkass
thanks for your fast reply.I thought that's the last version becouse it is linked here: https://www.oneplus.com/at/support/softwareupgrade/details?code=PM1574156173727
Anyway I now downloaded the last version from Android Filehost: https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=7161016148664850007
But unfortunately, that just brings me back to my original problem.
I see now again the boot animation and since I unfortunately do not know any method with which I could see where there are problems, I only could wait for some time an hope.
Any other ideas?
Thanks!

Backup what you can with twrp, factory reset and reflash

Hey @vkass
I was afraid you were going to say that.
Because of WhatsApp, Googe Authenticator App and other banking apps it would have been great to get access again. But, since the system unfortunately does not provide any info at boot time, I do not know what else would be possible.
Somehow strange that there are no logs.
I would have also tried to reinstall Magisk and also uninstall it, but unfortunately without success. For whatever reason I come after the installation of TWRP via TWRP now even again only directly into the recovery (but no password query comes) and a boot of the system does not work at all.
Thanks!

strange behavior after updating TWRP

Dear Community,
I hope someone can help me with my problem.
My Oneplus 5 (cheeseburger) is running Android 11 (/e/ OS from e foundation, based on LineageOS for microG, rooted with Magisk). My recovery until yesterday was TWRP 3.6.2_9-0. The whole system ran great, no problems.
Then yesterday I updated TWRP to the latest version 3.7.0_12-0. To do this I booted into the recovery and flashed the .img file there, as I always did. But when I booted into recovery again right after that, my unlock pattern didn't work anymore. Then I booted into the OS; the unlock pattern worked, but I can no longer get into the system settings and Bluetooth won't turn on. However, the apps all seem to work normally.
I then flashed TWRP 3.6.2_9-0 in fastboot mode via adb. Now the unlock pattern in TWRP worked. I then flashed the /e/ OS rom again. But that did nothing, I still can not get into the system settings and Bluetooth does not work.
Now I have two questions:
1. how can it be that updating TWRP leads to such problems?
2. what did I do wrong?
Thanks a lot for your help!

Can no one really explain to me how this problem came about?
I have now installed Android 12 cleanly, TWRP is 3.7.0_12-0.
What do I do when a new TWRP update comes? I don't even dare to install it if it then shatters my operating system again.

TWRP can't decrypt + Fastboot loop

Unsure if this is the place since its also related to TWRP 3.7, any help is appreicated
Got stuck in a weird situation and wondering if anyone has ideas.
Current State:
Slot_A on OOS 11, can boot TWRP via Fastboot
Slot_B on OOS 12, can only boot into Fastboot
Originally on OOS 11, booted TWRP and made backups of all partitions (data, boot, system image, vendor image, etc.). Forgot to move this to computer so this is all still stored on device.
Proceeded with OOS 12 upgrade (into Slot B). Patched magisk, rebooted, then flashed TWRP 3.7 (FBEv1), direct installed magisk, rebooted. - Everything was functional, but decided to go back to OOS 11.
Thinking I could just use the TWRP backup made on OOS 11, I did the following:
Booted into 3.7 TWRP
Restored the backup for boot, system image, and vendor image
Set active slot to Slot A and reboot
It doesn't allow me to boot into the OS (Presumably because the data was re-encrypted for OOS 12?)
Set active-slot=b and reboot, but it's locked to fastboot.
I've attempted a few things, but I can't boot back into OOS. I would prefer to retrieve my TWRP backups first before doing an MSM reset.
When on Slot_A (older), I can only boot into TWRP 3.6.2 and 3.7. I'm guessing 3.6.2 can't decrypt since it's only configured for A11 and under, but not sure why 3.7 can't decrypt my data.
- It doesn't even ask for pin when TWRP launches; maybe it's reading the System for Slot_A and thinks i'm still on A11?
- running `twrp decrypt {pin}` doesn't seem to work. Unsure if there's something done to my lockscreen pin to be used as the encryption key/password?
When on Slot_A, attempting to boot into either the system or TWRP hangs.
Things I've tried:
Flashing A11 boot.img and magisk-patched boot.img to Slot_A -> Hangs on 1+ Spinning dots
Flashing A12 boot.img and magisk-patched boot.img to Slot_B -> Hangs on 1+ logo (Does show up on ADB though)
Booting Slot_B into TWRP 3.6.2 (Official, and Nebrassy unofficial for A12) and TWRP 3.7 -> Gets stuck on "Fastboot Mode" screen (fastboot cli still responds) or Hangs on snapdragon logo
Edit: Ended up using MSM. Needed device for work

I have a similiar problem to flash twrp to my phone ,
each time i try i get a fastboot loop too and i have to reset/unbrick it with the msm tool back to android 11
i use the OnePlus_7_Pro_Global_OxygenOS_11.0.5.1 package to unbrick the phone , i dont know how long and often i tried now to get twrp to work so that i can flash a custom fw ... i want root and a android 13 based cfw but i dont get it to work :/

I got it working with crdroid. heres some stuff
guacamole - Google Drive
drive.google.com
be carefull
¯\_(ツ)_/¯​
------------------------------------
I got stable and decrypted fs RW working on crdroid 9.1 firmware other than some weird bugs
i put it in the 2023-twrp

I have the exact same problem! Have you found a fix yet? This seems to happen when I try to install Android 13 based roms, and when I install a rom like Lineage OS, using their recovery, it works just fine.

No, and I don't know why, maybe i do something wrong or it is the Modell that make this trouble.
I thinking to sell my OP7PRO and buy another one ( and then I have the same problem with the new phone )
No no let the jokes aside, it must work, i mailed with OnePlus Support Germany but they only helped me to install A11 w/root and recovery, i thought ok now I can update to A13 so I loaded A13, unpacked the boot.img, Patched the boot.img
Installed A13 w/out errors, rebooted - Fastboot loop

RIP
Started ranting instead

TWRP for guacamole development seems to be fairly scarce, last working recovery I tried was when they started using fastboot boot to enter it. It was pretty hacky even then, currently it seems that nebrassy is the maintainer for twrp for guacamole.
Github: https://github.com/nebrassy Android 12 thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/recovery-12-official-teamwin-recovery-project.4269551/ Nebrassys Telegram has helpful info as well: https://t.me/NSSFB
last update I found was 2022:10:2 - https://www.pling.com/s/Phones/p/1835156
after a few days of torture I read a thread on here saying if you flashed twrp via magisk like you would if it was a magisk moule it would work normally. It worked on my device so I assume that its universal. I have filled my computer with guacamole related files Im uploading here before im forced to reinstall my os:
guacamole - Google Drive
drive.google.com
Just a fyi from what I have gathered from my experience you can get a stable twrp recovery with persistant / read write access and disabled encryption and basically use it with little error up until you try flashing a newer custom rom. My guess is when flashing a cfw the bootloader gets rewritten causing our boot image to become corrupted. Flashing twrp over / booting to twrp via fastboot or trying to install it via another custom recovery causes boot / recovery failures... meaning you cant really use it for flashing custom roms. I cant find the post with the install instructions I seen that helped me so here is what I think it was,

MSM flashing with windows is the only way to recover from the void.

lastly be mindful of a/b partition configuration or youll find yourself lost or bricked
Installation:
1. Obviously unlock the bootloader - OEM Unlock
2. Flash custom recovery (lineage/crdroid/etc)
3. (Personally I root here and again on the active slot so) flash magisk.zip
4. Reboot into installed ROM and install magisk android app and complete setup, reboot system
5. (another thing I like to do before flashing twrp) setup magisk enable all the basic options like prophide, deny list then set root userspace option to global.
6. Flash TWRP .zip (https://dl.twrp.me/guacamolev2/twrp-installer-3.7.0_12-0-guacamolev2.zip) via magisk
Alright! After all that you should be able to reboot into recovery via adb reboot recovery / fastboot or power menu and you find a working twrp recovery installed.
If you need help or want to **** around with the device you can @ me anytime and ill do my best to halp

You Confussing me a lot with your Posts before ...
i´m unsure what you mean exactly,
my bootloader is unlocked, with magisk i got a working root but after that i fail
what you mean with flash twrp with magisk ?
after unlocking the bootloader and get root, i tryd to flash twrp like before on other devices but that seems not working because i get then the fastboot loop
on another thread i found here on xda too, the guy wrote dont forget to activate the fastboot loop fix in the advanced options
but i not tried it yet again , so what should i do now ?
for now , i´m back on android11 , with stock oxygen os firmware
i have to do now the things like i did before again , unpack boot.img from the firmware that is installed on the device
patch it with magisk, flash it with "fastboot flash boot boot-patched.img" or is this step senseless ?
i mean you only wrote unlock bootloader and flash a cfw , but i don´t have a chance to flash a custom fw without a custom recovery ??
my recovery on my op7pro have no options for "install zip" or something else
addendum:
like i said you confused me a lot
addendum two:
or i do what i said before .. i sell my op7pro and buy me a one where i havent so much trouble installing twrp and root
i never had a phone before that made so much trouble in installing simple twrp ...
but i don´t found a phone yet that is compatible with kali and the pentest tools or wardriving tools like the oneplus , so i have a problem ,... i think i should drink now my selfmade blackberry liquor ( or blackberry booze ? ) and let the smartphone be a smartphone for now and power off my brain for a while

Yes, you need to patch your boot image via magisk and flash it with fastboot.
After you let magisk do its first time setup and then once it reboots you go to Magisk > Modules and flash the twrp recovery .zip file you got from twrp. link:https://twrp.me/oneplus/oneplus7pro.html just like you would if it was a magisk module.

the password for twrp decryption is your pin. Here are simpler instructions
https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/how-to-make-twrp-work-in-your-stock-a12.4522667/#post-87985325

****... I forgot a step.
after flashing twrp as a module in magisk you dont reboot, you go back to the main screen hit the install button and choose direct install

Now I understand it more, i had before rooted the phone successful with magisk, but then I made a wrong decision and booted into Fastboot and flashed TWRP in Fastboot Mode as I did it before with all my Smarties i had before, coz those way with Fastboot worked before all the time so I never thought that this is the error in the procedure
I give the twrp flashing with magisk a try.
Thx for the help

Thank @yassine2217 because I would never have done so either.... Still many bugs but twrp is twrp
