Stuck in bootloader - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a Nexus 6p with android 8.1.0 and i was using the pixel 2 mod for nexus 6p, which i installed via TWRP flashing the zip file. I was trying more custom roms, but any worked, so i came back to the pixel 2 mod, but then, when i oppened Super SU, it stated something about the binaries. The solution i found was to install a SuperSU zip file via TWRP, which i did, but after installing it, my nexus wouldnt pass the boot animation, it wasnt acting like the infamous "Bootloop of death" the n6p and n5 has, it just didnt passed the boot animation, so i researched and saw that the solution was to delete de SuperSu file with the TWRP file manager, but whenever i deleted the file, wiped cache and booted again, it wont pass the bootanimation, and when i came back to twrp, SuperSU files were still there, and it seems i cannot erease them. What can I do? I tried restoring the phone with a back up i had, but nothing, flashing again the Pixel 2 mod for nexus 6p and anything.. what can i do?

@ernestomn98 just flash the boot.img of whatever ROM/Firmware you are on. You should use Magisk it's much easier to use and passes safety net so can use Google pay and such.

Hmmmmm is it really that easy? But where is that img? Because i installed it via zip file
Thank you for responding! Thank you for the suggestion of Magisk as well.

No problem and yes it's that easy. If the ROM zip is on your computer can just open it, copy the boot.img, then paste outside the folder. You can do that also with good file Xplorer on your phone but yours is not booting so no good. Transfer the boot.img to your phone. Boot into TWRP select install from zip . You will have to press the button to switch from zip to image file. Then select boot.img and flash it to boot section. Now your back to original and can flash Magisk zip. An easier method would be to just dirty flash the ROM your on but what fun is that. ??

TWRP (Boost) flash doesn't stick

Hi - I've read through almost every thread in this forum and, unless I am missing something - quite possible - I don't think that anybody has mentioned this problem.
I have a bootloader unlocked Boost Moto E4 and I can flash Squid's TWRP (I do get the "Image not signed or corrupt" message) and can boot from the bootloader after the flash into TWRP recovery. However, after I boot into the OS, the TWRP recovery gets overwritten with the stock recovery. Has anybody else bumped into this? Is there a step that I am missing somewhere to make TWRP permanent?
Thanks
D.
Hmm - okay, after a little bit more work, I've managed to make it stick. I am not entirely sure which part of the process made it successful - or if I am duplicating things - but I used Magisk to generate a new boot.img, flashed that .img through twrp, installed the magisk .zip and now twrp "sticks" as my recovery. Nice that it allows me to boot with my system as r/w.

Your problem is the stock rom flashing the stock recovery when you reboot. If you flash twrp then reboot recovery once before booting the os, it should change a file in /system recovery-from-boot.p to recovery-from-boot.p.bak which will stop the stock recovery flash. You can also mount /system in twrp and use the file manager to change it manually.

after flashing recovery you have to root your device to make it
sticky. if you skip this step custom recovery will replaced on next boot *bingo*

Not true. You don't have to root to make twrp stick. I did just state how to do this.

than do this flash over default recovery and do reboot. twrp recovery removed from recovery partition on next boot.
also do this flash twrp and do allow modifications. your device ain't gonna boot. if you didn't flash no verity thing.
rooting will make it permanent. it's the same case in both marshmallow and nougat too as OP states his problem in first post.
it will permanent by doing this
fastboot erase recovery (remove default recovery from recovery partition)
than install custom recovery. it will be there no matter if your device is rooted or not.
Thanks for the replies, everybody. There is some good info in them - I have managed to "make it stick" but I'll definitely keep the advice here in mind when I need to redo things (as I am sure that I will at some point).

Whatever you do don't run "fastbootboot erase" anything unless you know for sure what by you're doing or you can screw up your partitions. I have flashed twrp many times with only running "fastboot flash recovery...", then flashing one of numerous zips to disable dmverity and forced encryption. As long as you have the option in twrp under " mount" that says "mount system read only" not checked and you may need to reboot twrp afterwards, twrp should stick. Flashing Magisk directly after the stock rom should also solve your problem and disable dmverity.

Magisk on Oreo

I can't seem to install Magisk 16.0 via TWRP 3.2 on the Oreo update. It installs, but enters a bootloop. Why is that?
Also TWRP said cannot mount /data. How to fix this?
"Failed to mount '/data' (No such process)"
Also cannot format data this way
EDIT: Installed Magisk 16.4, no change. Also just realized that internal storage is inaccessible.
I upgraded and got in a bootloop. Then I remembered I had Nougat substratum themes active. Only way I got it booting is by factory resetting it.
As for installing magisk with root access, you can try the TWRPless method. I got it working on mine. All you need is the stock boot image and a computer to use adb.
Steps on installing magisk on Oreo:
1. Put the boot image somewhere you can easily find it for later use
2. Install the latest magisk manager apk on your phone
3. Enter magisk manager and install magisk (root) using the "patch boot image" method.
4. Send the patched boot image to your computer
5. Now reboot into bootloader
6. Now on your computer install the patched boot image using fastboot flash boot "patched boot image"
7. Reboot and profit!
Hope this helped you out. Good luck

For anyone who tries the above method and has their fingerprint sensor stop working as I did, use a root file manager to remove the following directory/file:
/data/system/users/0/fpdata
/data/system/users/0/settings_fingerprint.xml
and reboot.
Certain modules required me to delete those files again, and some others broke the fingerprint functionality until they were removed and I rebooted twice. I hope someone can find a complete workaround soon.

Already tried. Bootloop also, probably since magisk manager used v 16.0 instead 16.4.
I noticed that 16.4 actually signed the boot image using test keys, as opposed to the 16.0 which didn't.
I'm a bit frustrated here man
EDIT: I have substratum but I don't have any of the themes active, so the first one is a go. Installing magisk however...

So, now you're stuck in a bootloop?
Also, yes I used version 16.0 (you can never go wrong with a stable release)

Technically, I'm not now, since I flashed the original boot.img
But yes, if I installed magisk either via the patched boot.img or TWRP, I get a bootloop
Actually idk if bootloop or nah since I can't access logcat via adb, but it's on the bootlogo for like 5 mins (regular start time is 30-ish sec)

That was the first thing I tried, in fact. I have to use magisk 16.4 as well or else the fingerprint reader refuses to work no matter what. You haven't run into this issue at all? What's your setup if I might ask, and did you patch the boot image from the oreo update zip to install magisk?

I just watched a video tutorial to root it and keep stock recovery. Another thing to take note of is that I upgraded to Oreo using TWRP instead of stock recovery (yes, I didn't think it was possible on this phone).
Once I upgraded to Oreo, it reverted back to stock recovery. As you read above, I got stuck in a bootloop because I had substratum themes active, but I fixed it by using the stock recovery to factory reset it. (It's also nice to factory reset after a major OS upgrade so that you don't encounter any problems with old files)
If anyone's interested in a video, here's the one I watched:

So you did a factory reset and magisk is working properly? I can boot twrp without installing, but still no go using that method. Yes, I also used TWRP to install oreo, I didn't think it was possible either, but it finished flawlessly. Except the magisk thingy.
Can you mount /data in TWRP after oreo?

To answer your first question: yes, I did the basic setups, restored my apps and then installed magisk the way I explained above.
Secondly, did you try installing the latest TWRP? Because I didn't want to install TWRP until I have the stock recovery and TWRP with the latest Oreo kernels.
I saw this morning that shakalaca uploaded TWRP with the latest kernel, so I boot it through fastboot and saw that by default the following partitions were mounted: /recovery, /data, /cache. I tried /system to see if it works and it does.
I hope this answers your question and good luck!

Yes, actually I just did update via TWRP, it installs flawlessly. HOWEVER, it only applies to the Oreo ROM, not the N or M ROMs. N and M needs stock recovery (the boot.img contains recovery too)
I was able to reflash the update via twrp by modifying the update script a bit (spat out errors about the twrp recovery having a more recent build date than the update zip) Everything seems so far so good! I haven't had issues with my fingerprint yet.

Phone booting back to TWRP

Hi everyone,
I'm rooted. I flashed the Beta 3 rom and TWRP. Then, I rebooted into TWRP and flashed Magisk v18. Now, my phone spins on the boot animation screen for about a minute, then reboots into TWRP. Any ideas what I should do? I've tried wiping cache, but still the same issues.

Use this if you're on OOS 9.0.5/9.0.6/9.0.7, but if you are on a higher OOS then you need to grab your stock boot.img for 9.0.10 from here and 9.0.11 from here, and patch it yourself using the instructions below.
Connect your phone to your PC using the OnePlus Cable
Reboot to Bootloader using "adb reboot bootloader" on PC while your phone is in TWRP
Rename stock boot .img file to boot.img on PC
Use "fastboot boot boot.img" on PC while your phone is in Fastboot Mode / Bootloader
Follow this guide once you are done with the above steps to root your phone with Magisk and actually boot.
I am in the same situation.
1) Got the phone. Unlocked with out-of-the-box firmware. Put TWRP on it, Magisk. All worked like a dream.
2) Time passed, I tried to play Fortnite a bit, which kicked me out due to root. Had to use Magisk Canary. Still, NO issues, all superb!
3) New firmware. The December one. Kept postponing it, but after like 2 weeks, I was like, meh, why not. Big mistake.
From this point on, I cannot root no matter what I try. As soon as I flash Magisk, it will keep booting back to TWRP.
I have even tried to grab the Canary ZIP to flash. Nothing. Tried flashing back the full base update file from OnePlus, then root. Nothing.
It's like an endless loop.
To be fair, I only use root / magisk because I need call recording. Sadly, it's been killed in Android 9, but OnePlus has a hidden feature for this. Unfortunately you have to use either ADB on each boot, or use Magisk to enable it and save you time, hassle.
Anyone has any idea, shoot.
This is a 100% unbranded, OnePlus-store-bought 8GB/128GB 6T model.
Ps.: IF you ever get stuck in this loop - you can boot your phone by using the original "boot.img".
You can grab it here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/on...overy-unofficial-twrp-touch-recovery-t3861482
To boot it, simply:
1) Enter Bootloader where you can use fastboot (NOT TWRP!).
2) Use `fastboot boot boot.img`
3) Your phone now will boot up.

Hi there,
Just like you I have installed twrp-3.2.3-x_blu_spark_v9.86_op6 TWRP recovery on my phone to flash custom ROM (as recommneded by this ROMs list), however, it doesn't work. Like, no matter whether you I to flash unofficial or official custom ROM, it says that 'Something isn't right'. I think there's some problem within this recovery. Hoping for good.

Twrp but what he recommends hear overwrites my rom removing magisk. When I reflash magisk it's the same issue.
I'll look into sick installer.
Dont know the exact reason but custom kernal installation fixing it.
I fixed it by running the update through the local upgrade again. It fixed it after one local upgrade with standard magisk upgrade steps.

10.1 flashing a custom kernel then Magisk and I have no WiFi issues. It is some conflict with standard OnePlus 6t kernel.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6t/how-to/ultimateguide-t4004367
Take a look at this...
Payload dumper
You have to use payload dumper. Extract Payload dumper after You downloaded it in a folder. Download the lastest 6t Stock Android zip file 10.0.1, extract it and take out the payload.bin file,
put it in the input folder of payload dumper and start payload dumper. Wait some time. Now in the Output folder take out the boot.img and send it trough Your phone, install Magisk in Your phone. It is still uninstalled now and it will remain unistalled now. Tap on install where Magisk is uninstalled and still Red, again tap on install and choose patch a file, it will open Your Filemanager on Your phone, choose the destination of Your boot.img. and tap on Your boot.img file.
Now magisk will flash it. After that look in Your download folder, there You will find the file magisk_patched.img, save it on Your PC. Start Your phone in to the fastboot mode and flash in minimal-adb-or-fastboot the magisk_patched.img.
You have to write fastboot flash boot. Now drag and drop the magisk_patched.img in to the window, so it will look like this:
fastboot flash boot "C:\Users\(Your Username)\Downloads\magisk_patched.img"
Hit enter, just some seconds and it is done. Now write fastboot reboot and hit enter. The phone reboots and Wifi also appears and the sound is working. You have to do it again when the next update appears. Maybe Android Oxygen OS 10.0.2
I am wondering about the next updates from android 11 (R), 12 (S), 13 (T). If it will work the same till Fuchsia OS is coming out and we will say good bye to Android and maybe goodbye to custom ROMs.
But PC Games on the Phone would be a tasty thing because Fuchsia OS is supporting APKs and EXEs too.
Have Fun.

I ran through the standard upgrade process for root.
Uninstall Magisk and restore original images
update through settings > local upgrade with the full ota zip
install magisk to inactive slot. That keeps magisk installed and should let you reinstall the update.

After the update, i flashed the patched boot.img using fastboot command. Assuming no modules are conflicting you should have a rooted device. The one module that created a problem for me was OOS NATIVE CALL RECORDING. Disabling it solved any issue.

How did u root on 11.0.8.8?
Do I have to repeat the process of downloading stock ROM, using payload dumper to get boot.img, patching it on magisk and flashing on fastboot?

What if i just uninstall magisk(unroot), download and install the update, download only the boot.img then patch and get root?
I am trying to avoid downloading whole stock rom because of the boot.img when i can just download it alone.

We only need the boot.img(correct one) to proceed with root no need to download the entire stock rom.
Where are you guys getting 11.0.8.8IN11AA? Full zip?
Nothing on Oxygen updater for me yet.
Hey guys, so I've installed the new OTA, then went to magisk, installed magisk to inactive slot, rebooted and now the only thing happening is boot logo spinning....
what to expect? ofc, i didn't do a backup beforehand...

Things like this makes me so cautious and ask so many questions. Hope you didnt soft brick your device?
Okay it worked out somehow, i was looking for a stock boot.img, and was gonna flash that to try and save it, but had trouble with my pc recognizing my oneplus in fastboot mode, so i pressed both vol up/down and power at the same time to while being connected with usb cable, to try and get into fastboot, then screen went black but my PC got some pop ups for recognizing a device with unavailable drivers, then i just press vol up and power after a minute of it being black, phone rebooted and it loaded past the booting animation into android... weird stuff worked out, even after a dozen reboots with hardware keys, even letting it spin the animation for an hour...
I'm never updating again ahahhah
edit: if you do update, make sure you disable all your magisk/xposed addons and some native os call recording module... thats what i learned while googling yesterday, and its something i did not do, that could of have possibly contributed to my headaches
What i ended up doing that worked was;
. Flash stock 11.0.7.7 boot.img to slot A & B to unroot the phone.
. Reboot and install the ota update. I had no magisk modules to uninstall.
. After updating i downloaded the stock boot.img for 11.0.8.8 then patched and flashed to get rooted again.
Its a longer process but quite safer for me.
It's the same on each firmware, providing you have the full update available to you.
Use oxygen updater and grab the full update, download and install but don't Reboot.
Open Magisk send install after OTA.
Then reboot.
If you're unable to grab the full update then probably best to update then boot lineage recovery and sideload Magisk.zip using lineage recovery, then flash and you're done.
Could someone post boot img I can't find this 11.8.8 to download.
Thanks.

Same here please, cant find the 11.0.8.8.IN11AA anywhere.
If 8.8AA is in oxygen updater (full update)
Then make your own, using someone else's comes with inherent issues and risks.
It's good practice to make your own.
