When I try to flash TWRP (via "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img" then "fastboot boot twrp.img") I receive the following error:
Downloading 'boot.img'
OKAY [1.477s]
booting...
FAILED (remote: dtb not found)
finished. total time: 1.534s
I've tried manually booting it into recovery with power button and volume down but it just freezes on the oneplus logo where I have to turn off and on again.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
I found the solution.

that link just saved me!
I tried this recovery (I had the same problem as the OP) but although I can boot into twrp, I get stuck on the oneplus logo if I try a normal boot?

I managed to get it working by flashing CM after flashing the recovery.

Next time, correct command is the following:
Fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
You tried to flash the recovery image onto the kernel/boot partition, luckily it doesn't allow this, unless it's an actual kernel image fitting that partition. ?

Actually, fastboot boot twrp.img boots the TWRP image without flashing it.
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img flashes the TWRP image to the recovery partition.
Both are valid commands and have their uses.
fastboot flash boot twrp.img would be the command to try to flash the recovery image to the boot partition and shouldn't be used.

Are you sure you flashed the correct OOS3 bootloader compatible version of TWRP? Latest official 3.0.0-2 should be compatible.

The bootloader (also called fastboot) comes with the original ROM. In your case you're already on the newer bootloader since you flashed OOS3 which means you will have to flash recoverys and ROMs compatible with this newer bootloader.
This TWRP should be compatible
https://dl.twrp.me/oneplus2/twrp-3.0.2-1-oneplus2.img.html
Also you can't run ROMs not compatible with this newer bootloader (which means pretty much any ROM that's not using the official Cyanogenmod source tree for building). That is except for OOS3 or newest HOS of course since these are made for the newer bootloader.
However I would say the error message you get might be caused by bad cable, faulty driver setup, faulty fastboot tool version or in worst case damaged partition layout on phone. The last one can be fixed by the Qualcomm OOS2 factory restore solution.
Hi, i am having the same problem.
some background: I was on Oxygen OS 2.x.x, i wanted to upgrade to Exodus 6. I had the older version of TWRP. So I tryed to install the new twrp image within twrp. When i rebooted i couldnt boot into twrp, receiving the same error message as in OP title, when using fastboot.
Using the tool all in one toolkit I was able to flash stock recovery.
But I still cant flash Twrp.
I can still boot into system though.
Any advice? Thanks.
That explains why you're having problems. You're doing it the wrong way.
First you must upgrade the bootloader by either flashing the convert to Marshmallow zip file which also installs the correct TWRP for the new bootloader (easiest way). Or you could flash the latest official OOS3, then fastboot flash the latest TWRP and from there format system and flash the ROM that's using the newer bootloader.
Does that Link work with oneplus x also? Having same problem as Higgings when trying to install twrp and cyanogenmod.
thnx a lot for sharing
:good:

So guys basically, I wanted to give F2FS a shot, I downloaded the recoveries that the thread told me to, flashed either of them using the fastboot flash boot filename.img
With both of them, and even the latest official TWRP I get this:
sending 'boot' (8182 KB)... OKAY [ 1.056s]
writing 'boot'... OKAY [ 0.182s]
finished. total time: 1.238s
and on my Bootloader screen I get the message FASTBOOT STATUS OKAY
So, you'd think all went fine.
Rebooting into recovery reveals that I have the exact same recovery as before, I've tried like 10 times and the result is always the same one
Are you sure the one you flashed is different to the previous one? Which recovery do you have now and which do you want to flash?

I have TWRP 2.7.0.1 and I'm trying to flash either KT recovery or the latest TWRP 2.7.1.0, I'll try flashing CWM and then change back to one of those to see if I can manage to do that
fastboot boot filename.img worked and I managed to change my filesystems, I'll try creating the zip as the recovery keeps going reverting and 2.7.0.1 isn't able to read my partitions now, I'll update with the results and so far I just booted up and everything seems to be going well.
Edit: Ok, I DL'ed an official TWRP 2.7.1.0 zip and flashed it, my recovery updated successfully, however it isn't able to read my /cache or /data partitions, next, I replaced the recovery.img with the exact same img I used to convert to F2FS (the one provided here) and again booted into the functional recovery through fastboot boot filename.img, I flashed the new zip file and everything seemed to be fine, rebooting to recovery shows that the original TWRP 2.7.1.0 wasn't replaced as I'm unable to mount the data or cache partitions.
Also worth mentioning that using the TWRP manager from the playstore to try to flash .imgs does not work either
The fastboot method listed above is to flash a kernel not recovery, if your trying to flash a new recovery you run
fastboot flash recovery nameofrecovery.img

SOLVED:
Hi,
I just bricked my MX4 after trying to update system image from 4.5.6 to 4.5.7 using this guide:
Extract I version update.zip
use sdat2img to create system image
dd system image to system partition on live phone and reboot.
I used the same procedure successfully before, x-updating 4.5.4A ti I then updating to 4.5.6I.
After updating to 4.5.7, the phone goes into an infinite loop of Meizu splash screen, Flyme balloon, reboot.
I can enter fastboot and official recovery, but can't flash any partition from fastboot.
The bootloader is still locked.
Does anyone have any advice for unbricking?
Update:
The bootloop suddenly froze up for long enough for me to use adb to push an update.zip to the "sdcard" root. Have now flashed 4.2.8A from recovery and booted the phone.
As I had to clear all data I will unlock bootloader before trying anything else.
Try do flash 4.2.8.2 with uboot.img modded (to reunlock bootloader) and reboot fastboot and tell me

Hi,
I managed to push 4.2.8.2 to sdcard then do a normal recovery reflash.
Have now successfully unlocked using the .apk method.
Now I need to find out if I can use that unlocked bootloader to flash recent "I" firmwares, or if I can only flash the unfinished cyanogen (would like to wait 'til that's a bit more polished before using it.
Anyway. Happy to have my phone back!
Maybe that newest 4.5.7I need a new kernel so you'll need to update to 4.5.7A before flashing system.img or you can flash directly 4.5.7I but you'll need to use fastboot flash boot boot.img
If a rom/firmware needs a specific kernel it'll bootloop if you don't flash it
Can I flash 4.5.7 I now that I have unlocked bootloader and custom recovery? If I understand the unlock threads correctly, I think I will relock the bootloader, or even brick if I try to flash the complete update.zip. Can I flash system and boot partitions using fastboot?
Fully BRICKED.
Now I FULLY bricked it (no more recovery).
Had successfully upgraded to 4.5.7 "I" and was installing super su for full root, before disabling update, but had forgotten that I still had official 4.2.8 rom as update.zip on "sdcard" root.
rebooted to TWRP recovery for full su install and recovery found the update.zip and flashed it.
Result: Bootloop, No recovery, locked fastboot, no possibility to flash anything.
Aaargh!
Where do I find a 4.2.8 recovery.img for this phone?
Maybe there's a possibility doing a fastboot boot recovery.img ???

I used the WonderHowTo site incorrectly to flash a nexus 5 version of twrp unto my nexus 4.
My device at this point booted to a blank screen. It could still boot the boot loader at this point.
To "fix" this I found the correct version of twrp for my device and proceeded to flash that unto my device.
This has appeared to work since I can access twrp on my device but it is only thing I can access on the phone. When I attempt to boot to system through twrp I am sent back into twrp.
I have attempted to use the wugfresh root tool kit to unroot and return to stock using both soft bricked and phone is still working normally options with no success.
It can still boot to the boot loader currently.
I have logs from the toolkit if these can shed more light on my issue.
Is there anyway I can return my device to stock? Thanks for any response

Seems like you flashed TWRP to /boot. Easy fix is to download your ROM zip. Extract the boot.img and "fastboot flash boot boot.img". Then flash TWRP with "fastboot flash recovery twrp.img"
The locations and filenames of the files may vary. But hopefully you get the idea.

I flashed a boot image for mako_KTU84P and flashed recovery again with twrp but I'm still system booting into twrp.
My bootloader version is MAKOZ30f if that is any help
I probably flashed the incorrect boot image. Could you point me in the direction of reliable ROM zip's if that is the case.

Okay adb push a cyanogenmod zip from here and flash it in recovery. It should automatically install a working boot image. You should also flash the latest bootloader in the factory image with "fastboot flash bootloader bootloader.img" if you're using an outdated bootloader.
used the advice
I pushed the zip file using cmd and it appears to have been successful since I was given the summary of data transferred and how long it took once the process was finished.
I can't find the zip file in twrp to attempt to flash it.. Is there any reason the file name would change inside the device once it has been pushed?
Is there a way to flash the zip in question without pushing it unto the device?
Hello,
I've decided to install the Beta version of Oxygenos 3.0. Since my phone came from the OnePlus support, I've unlocked the oem, installed TWRP and flashed the Oxygen zip.
However, a day later I've spotted important touchscreen issues (I can't use the touchscreen sometimes).
To see if it is a software problem, I've decided to go to the recovery to reflash a backup. When I try to go to recovery mode, nothing Happen! (Just the oneplus logo ).
So, i've decided to reinstall TWRP by flashing it with fastboot.
"fastboot flash recovery recovery.img" -> OK
"fastboot boot recovery.img"
downloading 'boot.img' ...
OKAY [0.702s]
booting...

I've tried to install the stock recovery but I've the same error.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/general/firstaid-zip-revert-h2os-mm-beta-to-lp-t3306967 try this.
This happened to me too except I would not boot into the OS or recovery. I ended up going into fast boot and formatting the System, recovery and data partitions. Here is what I typed.
fastboot format system
fastboot format recovery
fastboot format data
I am not sure if you have to format the data but I did.
After that I flashed TWRP
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
Then I booted into recovery and was able to restore.

The recovery partition in Oreo is recovery_ramdisk, try flashing your TWRP (make sure it is Oreo supported) to recovery_ramdisk partition. Also your thread is in wrong forum. And before doing anything to your device, make sure you read instructions properly.
