Hi, I have this super-weird issue - my OOS got update to v12 and since then weird things happened:
It started to suddenly and immediately turn off and I couldnt do a thing. I did hard reset and noticed that turning on Gooogle Assistant (or using the mic at all) caused these resets. So I didnt activte Assistant. Unfortunnately, this caused my mic not to work at all.
So i have given up and decided to revert to previous rom - v11. Unfortunately, that is everything but simple:
I have downloaded ROM for EU from here oneplus site and tried both OP local update tool and this weird app named my application2. Both dont seem to work and im not sure why, I checked like 5 different ROM versions and I am kind of stuck. OP Local prompts me that I cannot install lower version of package than currently installed and this other app throws me pop up with this message: "Verification failed". I tried to google it and checked here on forum and I cant find similar thread.
Could anyone help me out with this?
I just went through this. I downgraded from 12L to 11. For some reason some of the roms do not want to be used by the local upgrade app. I used a different one from the one I will direct you to and it said that I couldn't downgrade. I just had to find the right one. Go here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...a-oxygen-os-repo-of-oxygen-os-builds.3930585/
Under "signed flashable zips" in the op, click "click to show content". I don't know which one you need global/India or Europe. I specifically used the global/India OnePlus7ProOxygen_21.P.41_GLO_0410_2112101753.
Use the local upgrade tool app. Downgrading will completely wipe your phone. So, make backups of your backups. If you root your phone, make sure to freeze the System Update app to get rid of the annoying update notification. So happy to have root/twrp back.
Thanks, unfortunately I have rolled back to OOS 11 and it didnt solve a thing - i keep seeing this lightning symbol and phone turns off even on full battery, I cant make phone calls because any use of mic turns off the phone immediately and I have no clue what to do next with it.

I have a rooted S4 and just installed Dandvh's Google Play Edition v.20150919 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2539361) rom. I used TWRP to install, wiping everything but internal storage, then flashed the rom. Installed fine, no errors. Took the usual bit of extra time to boot the first time then up and running clean and stable. The issue is that the OTA Updater app doesn't work, severely limiting my ROM options. It didn't install as part of the rom install, though I'm not sure if it's normal to just get it off the play store. I get an error message about not being compatible with the ROM and can't access it (error message screen cap below). Just in case, I wiped the phone and flashed again just to be sure, same result. The OTA Updater is important as this is where you can change kernals, audioFX stuff, toggle advanced power menus, and quite a bit more. When I used this ROM during the first part of the year OTA Updater worked just fine but I switched off in July to try another ROM so maybe something with the ROM has changed? I tried searching for any comments in the thread to indicate either that something changed with OTA Updater or if anyone else had a similar problem, found nothing. Would appreciate if anyone might know why OTA Updater isn't working or how I might correct it. Thanks.
Edit #1: I haven't changed the model number to SGH-M919 (as seen in the screen cap) in build.prop yet as if I can't get this ROM to work right I'll need to flash something else.
Edit #2: I noted in the patch notes that the ROM was updated for OTA Updater 2.4.2 and I was running 2.5.3 so I uninstalled it and installed 2.4.2. No luck there either.

After searching around and not being 100% sure on how I should go about fixing this particular bootloop I decided to post a thread. Bootloader unlocked, phone unlocked, FRP unlocked, and TWRP installed. Can't seem to get the phone recognized when plugged in no matter where I'm at and hisuite recovery doesn't work, nor does the erecovery or whatever it's called. I had the phone running just fine with supersu but after installing my usual Xposed/Busybox and rebooting I got caught in a bootloop. (might have been caused by being on Oreo and having some problems with a version made for Nougat or something). I've seen there are various ways to exit the loop and at this point I'd be open to any but I do notice some posts saying they almost bricked their phone while doing so. Currently on my microSD I've got a hwota update I was going to try to use. I've got no backups in TWRP either because I'm irresponsible (my fault). What can I do to just wipe the phone, reinstall any version of android and get back to where I was at. I'm a little new to this as I've only ever rooted my tablet. Thanks for the help and all the info I've taken from this forum before and hopefully now. Forgot to mention I don't know my full device number only MHA-L29 in the US.
Ok Well after laying in bed and thinking about it I wound up running HWOTA8 from TWRP since I could access that. Seemed to just bring me back to eRecovery, and I factory reset my phone. I'll reinstall TWRP and flash supersu then make a backup and try again. Not sure what happened but I seemed to be in a pretty good spot since I could access TWRP even though my phone wouldn't show up on my computer while in fastboot/Recovery mode.
edit: oh I got a new problem now. I'm on testkeys firmware, camera, sim, and bluetooth work but I can't update from 7 back to 8. I'll do more testing around before bothering to unlock bootloader or install TWRP.
I've been trying to follow the guide in this thread but to no avail. I just get software install failed and then I have to start again.
Well another day of searching google and XDA trying to figure out guides and I don't think I'm any closer to a solution to getting off test-keys. Some seem to suggest that you need to go back to MM, some suggest running HWOTA, some suggest the three button recovery and others say that won't work at all. I'm not sure I've ever felt this confused haha. I'll keep at it but there has to be some way to get to a build that has the updater on it since that's all I seem to be lacking to get off test-keys. I can even search the settings for the updater but when you press it nothing happens. It's like they completely removed any sort of updating this build can do.

Model: MHA-L29
Build: NRD90M test-keys
EMUI version: 5.0.1
Android version: 7.0
I believe I was originally on some variant of MHA-L29C567 since I'm US based and its the dual sim version
I've tried using HWOTA a few times to either upgrade/update or rebrand and no matter what I choose when my phone restarts to install I just get software install failed. Usually I'll have to run through first time setup again. I've read that some people said this particular issue had to do with the update zips but mine seem to be named correctly so all I can think of doing is getting another firmware and trying again with that.
haha okay so I found out I was putting the update zips in the wrong folder. I fixed that and re ran HWOTA. update started/finished and my phone started booting and restarting a lot then went into erecovery. I'm downloading the update package right now and it's slow as hell but it's moving. And that failed leaving me to boot a few times and then get back to erecovery. I'll try getting into fastboot or recovery.
Edit: Well that seems to have resolved itself now. After having the erecovery fail I wiped/factory reset and booted the phone into oreo 8.0.0.321 with all the apps and updater. Thanks to everyone who dropped in and I'll be getting emails if someone replies that needs help too. I'm not very knowledgeable but I can give it a shot.
I’ve recently been trying to root my Samsung SM-J710FN. I managed to find a sequence of actions that consistently produces a rooted phone. I found TWRP 3.0.2 (I know that later versions exist, but this is the latest I could find for this model) and flashed it using Odin. I then use it to wipe the data partition (because, apparently, TWRP doesn’t work well with encryption). I use adb push to copy SuperSU 2.79 (downloaded from here) and no-verity-opt-encrypt-6.0 (in accordance with instructions in this thread, downloaded from here) to /data, then I install both of them using TWRP and reboot.
While the phone does appear rooted, it does end up having some serious problems. Here are some that I managed to find:
The camera doesn’t work. When I try to start the Camera app, it just crashes after a few moments.
The flashlight doesn’t work. When I try to turn it on using the button in the quick settings panel at the top, I get a message saying that the Camera app is using the flashlight (and the flashlight doesn’t turn on, obviously).
The phone does not automatically change orientation as I rotate it (in apps that are supposed to support it, such as Google Chrome), even though the appropriate settings are enabled.
The brightness controls do not affect the screen’s brightness in any way.
(I also can’t manage to re-encrypt the phone after rooting it, but that’s probably better left for a different thread.)
Has anyone else encountered similar problems? What can I do to solve them?
Have you tried to reflash stock ROM again?
I have. In fact, I did so many times before I figured out the exact steps to successfully root the phone (and then a number of times more while troubleshooting these issues). Everything works fine after restoring (unrooted) stock firmware, but stops working again after rooting.
I finally figured it out. Looks like I should have used a different SuperSU version. I repeated the process using SuperSU v2.82 SR5 and the problems stopped.
(I’m still trying to get the phone to be both rooted and encrypted, but that’s a separate story…)
EDIT: I gave up on SuperSU and used Magisk instead. It’s much easier and seems to work perfectly even with encryption!
Can you give me link to download a Android system and Magisk. Which one you used. I have the same problem :c
Here’s Magisk: https://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/magisk
As for “Android system”, do you mean stock firmware? In that case, I’m really sorry but I haven’t really kept a link to the place I downloaded it from Besides, you need stock firmware that matches your specific phone (based on the part of the world where you bought the phone, I think? I’m not quite sure), which may not be the same as mine.
I've already done it, I downloaded all the necessary files from sammobile.com
But thank you for your willingness to help

As I said before, unfortunately, I have not kept a link to the stock firmware. Further, judging by your other posts, you don’t seem to have a device of the same model as mine (I have SM-J710FN, you said you have SM-J710GN), which means my stock firmware isn’t going to be useful to you anyway.
Hello there.
I'm using tulip for few months now. One of first things that I've done, have been unlocking device, rooting it and put stock rom with root access on it. So far, so good. I did not encounter any serious glitches etc, but now I would like to finally upgrade miui to 11 (currently having 10.3).
And there's my problem. I would love to dodge making clean installation (wipe data etc) and I do not wish to risk to bootlooping my phone. I've read on some threads (older ones, but still) that you cannot simply install ota update in system, because due to changed recovery (I do have TWRP instead of fabric one) you will cause bootloop. I've tried alternative method of installing zip BY twrp, but program says, that it encounter a problem called "package expects build fingerprint (...) of tulip 0/PKQ1.180904.001/V10.3.2.0.PEKMIXM or PKQ1.180804.001/V11.0.2.0; this device has omni_tulip/tulip:8.1.0/OPM8.181105.002/1", and then sait, that in had error 7.
Is it simply wrong rom being installed and I have to choose something that is being named the same way and supports ota, or is there a way to go more swiftly through this process? If so and I should pick rom with ota - what to choose? I like deep level customisation, but compatibility with google store, being able to use store, payments and paid apps, instead of "opening them" by some lucky patchers kind of apps.
OR MAYBE I just need to change recovery from TWRP to something different - like PBRP f.e.? Just like this thread says - https://forum.xda-developers.com/re...how-to-setup-official-miui-breeaking-t3893703
Just a quick update - changing twrp to pbrp does not change anything in upgrade process - still get the same error, now just without telling me, which version do I have.
Also, what's interesting, apparently twrp said to me that I do have android 8.1, but "about phone" in system says, that its android 9 (9PKQ1.180904.001 to be exact).
That's werid, because everywhere I check, phone says "android 9" as a version of it.
Have you tried wiping system and installing?

Not yet. I've found method of flashing via PBRB with usage of downloaded file and one option check, but I'm not gonna try it, unless I do a backup of my apps. If that won't work, I'll perform a clean instalation and choose rom that supports ota.
well, I've tried to do this with the method, that I've described before, but this did not ended successfully. I'll look for rom with ota update possibility and then install it most likely. Apps had backup, so I lost almost nothing.
It worked. I had to download bigger patch (1.7 GB, instead of circa 700 MB, that I've tried before), I also had to use method described here -> https://c.mi.com/thread-1782169-1-1.html (pitch black recovery, instead of twrp + one tweak in options). Start after flash was very long (it took like 10 minutes or so), but it booted successfully in the end. Not sure which rom I do have after all, but as far as I remember it was so close to stock, as possible (with only few extra options and tweaks). So yea, it just works.
Hi Team,
On the latest OOS 10.3.2. Have done multiple resets, downgraded using msm tool to OOS 5.1.3 and then manually updating them. Factory reset done a couple of times.
Anyone can help?
Currently running Magisk 20.4, bootloader unlocked.
Same here
I even tried using msmtool and even installing custom rom still no luck in fixing this issue . Most irritating part about this is not able to use auto rotate .
Possible Fix
Hey! I made an account today to hopefully help youins. I was also struggling with this issue, and I couldn't find anyone with a working solution. After trying resets and full msm tool restores of different android versions (I tried the standard 5.1.5, 9.0.0, and 10.3.2), I figured out my issue and fixed it.
For me, I would do an msm to android 8 (5.1.5). This is the link on the main forum for " [TOOL] MsmDownloadTool V4.0 International (Oxygen OS 5.1.5)" by Fivegates. (I would link it, but I don't know if that's allowed or not.) After doing the reset, Everything worked! However, after letting the phone update to 9.0.9 by it's self with the update tool in settings, I would lose the ability to use wifi. After forcing the next update to 10.3.2, I would lose the gyro and Prox sensor again. I then tried the msm tool from a different site that went straight to 10.3.2 ... No dice. Same issue. So, I figured that the phone needed one of the updates between 5.1.5 and 9.0.9. I started trying some updates between, and here was my final process to get back up and running! (it took a while. haha)
FIX
1. MSM tool to 5.1.5 by following the MsmDownloadTool post from fivegates. (This will wipe all data and re-lock bootloader.)
2. After phone boots, run through set-up, but don't let phone update.
3. Download the full OTA for Oneplus 6, version 9.0.0. It can be found in an xda post, or elsewhere. Again, don't know if I can link anything.)
4. Put the zip on your Oneplus and use the updater in settings to preform an update from local storage. (You tap the top right corner menu and select local upgrade.)
5. Once updated to 9.0.0, let the phone do the next two updates. At the time of this guide, the first will be to 9.0.9 , and the second to 10.3.2.
6. After that, I had a working gyro and Prox sensor on 10.3.2. From there, I unlocked the bootloader, booted twrp, and carried on my rom installs like normal.
I hope this helps!

Thank you kind person. For more than two months I tried to return the phone to normal operation and all to no avail. So I came across your post and now my phone is full again. Thank you very much.
