I messed up my phone by updating TWRP, but I am not quite sure how. - OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Alright so I went to dirty flash a new ROM update but TWRP errored out so I was unable to. I went to update TWRP (I was 2 versions out of date) and it flashed without a problem. However now I can no longer boot into recovery or quickboot but my ROM loads just fine. What the hell is going on?

I actually did NOT correctly flash TWRP. I am still on the older version and still cannot boot into it

flash twrp from fastboot.
1) reboot into bootloader
2) open a terminal inside the folder where you downloaded the recovery .img file
3) type into terminal: fastboot flash recovery recoveryfilename.img
4) reboot into recovery holding power and vol -

I cannot boot into fastboot or the bootloader.

Fixed by flashing older version of TWRP with the app inside of android.

Lost recovery, cant boot, only fastboot

Guys... when i tried to flash oos 3.0 on my op2 through twrp, i first wiped the data to install new rom, then install oos 3.0, it failed. I then flashed the recovery i downloaded from the thread, then restart the recovery
I cant boot into the recovery.
System can't boot
Is it called "brick"?
So i tried to flash stock recovery in pc by command, but it says "remote: device is locked. cannot flash images". any solution to this problem?
I can boot into fastboot mode
You need to run the phone in Qualcomm mode on a PC and run the recovery tool to fix you bootloader.
I did the same and it was a royal ball ache trying to find out how to fix it
Don't do what rosswaa said
Why not?
What you should do is boot your phone into fastboot mode, connect it to your pc. Flash this modified TWRP recovery img to your phone https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24459283995297945. After that you have to flash this modified SuperSU (through the new recovery) https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24459283995297946.
The normal recovery doesn't work in OOS 3.0 (just like in HOS) and it's the SuperSU that gives you the soft brick. A dirty flash of the modified SuperSU should fix it.
I also had your problem and I did what rosswaa said which shouldn't be necessary (I lost all my data and backups).
I didn't lose anything, but I tried doing what you said and my bootloader was screwed so wouldn't take a flashed recovery or anything (yes the modified one)
Wish I hadnt been so excited and just flashed but all sorted now
Hmm okay, if it doesn't work with flashing the new recovery img then do what rosswaa said and after that follow this post https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/installation-instructions-faqs-oxygenos-3-0-0.439108/
Obviously try what green says first, if it works then happy days
first i am really glad that someone give some advices on me. But since i am a noob, how can i flash twrp in fastboot mode? using command? "fastboot flash recovery xxx.img"? thx

Nexus 6p rebooting in twrp recovery

Hi, I was stuck in nexus 6p bootloop, but after following instruction here I unlocked the bootloader, and flashed the twrp recovery and 6pEX4 zip file. But now my phone reboots everytime into recovery. It doesn't reboot into system even if I select reboot into system from the recovery.
My phone bootloader was successfully unlocked. I, however, by mistake typed
Code:
fastboot flash boot
instead of
Code:
fastboot flash recovery
before flashing twrp. Do I need to install stock rom again and repeat the same process?
You don't need to start again, just go and run the correct command in the bootloader and it will overwrite.
Run the below
Code:
fastboot flash recovery nameofrecoveryimage.img
Then boot into recovery and flash that kernel zip and you should be good to go.
As long as you can get into recovery things are easy, you could always just copy across a kernel zip or whole ROM zip and flash that

I was flashing TWRP
I couldn't boot into system after flashing..
This is what I did:
1. fastboot boot recovery.img
2. Swipe to allow modifications in twrp
3. Flash TWRP installer zip
4. Reboot into partition B
5. Reboot bootloader
6. fastboot boot recovery.img
7. Swipe to allow modifications in twrp
8. Flash TWRP installer zip
9. Then I rebooted into recovery to check if recovery boots and it did.
But afterwards couldn't boot back into system. It was again booting into recovery.
I booted into recovery using fastboot boot, that's why it might won't boot into system. Is there a command to boot into system after above procedure?

Kindly also suggest source of files you used, if you know another working method.
I have the same problem. Meanwhile, flash the stock fastboot images.
Why do you want to have TWRP installed? I am following these steps each month (fastboot ROM was always out sooner than my OTA) without any issues.
1. flash stock ROM via fastboot
2. fastboot boot twrp-3.1.1.img and don't allow system modifications or you won't be able to apply OTA
3. install magisk 15.1
4. reboot to system
If first boot takes more than 2-3 minutes, hold power off button until phones restarts, second start will take the usual time.
I also don't allow any modifications from TWRP, and just boot to TWRP when I need to. I do not install TWRP.
Sounds like you'll have to do a miflash of the rom, then try not installing TWRP and not allowing any modifications in TWRP to system. Just use TWRP to flash Magisk.

About to give up on flashing recovery to OOS 11.1.1.1

I tried "fastboot boot" almost all of KizuYuna's .imgs, tried fastboot boot the lineagerecovery.img. All I get is the fastboot logo and the phone just restarts into OOS... TWRP is same.
About to MSM downgrade to OOS 10 to get recovery working like I did before. Thought it would be better to flash a rom from OOS 11 to get better firmware compatibility but just wont work.
Simply go back to OS 10.3.5 using the MSM Download Tool. Upgrade via OTA to 11..1.1.1, fastboot flash boot magisk_patched-23000_11.1.1.1 from XDA 235Sanders15 post. (you are now rooted with Magisk. Via Magisk install TWRP-Installer-3.5.2_9-0 you are now unrooted but have TWRP installed. Using TWRP flash Magisk v23.0.You are now rooted on OS 11.1.1.1 with TWRP installed. Do not change the Kernel it will cause a Bootloop.

So you are saying MSM to 10 and then flash official 11.1.1.1 or fastboot flash boot magisk_patched-23000_11.1.1.1 (this is a full 11.1.11.1 OS flash? No need to use twrp from 10?)
Thanks
So I just went thru an Android 10 to 11.1.1.1 upgrade, and it was a bit frustrating. So I'll throw out what I learned along the way.
Note, I have a T-Mobile Variant, so sometimes you need different files/steps for T-Mo.
I flashed the full OTA via Settings > Update > Local Upgrade, which ended up boot-looping.
Via Fastboot, I did fastboot flash boot magisk_patched-23000_11.1.1.1.img; followed by fastboot reboot;
This was still boot-looping, so I shutdown the phone, and booted into recovery, which was now PBRP.
via PBRP, I flashed the full OTA again from my SDCard; then installed PBRP zip;
Reboot to System and got a Successful Boot. Yey.
Reboot to Recovery; Backup Boot.
Reboot to System
Install Magisk App; within Magisk > Install > select my Boot Backup to Patch (per Magisk instructions); I used a file manager to copy to my PC from my phone
Reboot to Fastboot; fastboot flash boot magisk_patched-23000_rJoA.img (the file Magisk created)
Reboot to System; Success!
I guess my morale of the story is, get a clean boot working, go from there. Patch your own boot, don't rely on someone else's.

So you had to go through all the trouble because you had a bootloop issue when OTA updating to 11? I already got to 11 but am trying to fastboot boot a recovery because I want to flash a custom ROM... When I fastboot boot TWRP.img or LOS Recovery .img it just shows fastboot logo and restarts the phone with no recovery shown..

All Custom ROM installations fail the same way.

I am trying to get a custon ROM to work on my Oneplus 8 Pro (instantnoodlep)
ROMs I tried installing:
Cherish OS 3.9.5
Nameless-AOSP_instantnoodlep-12.1-20220708-0935-Official
What I do:
1. Download recovery provided with the ROM
2. Reboot to bootloader and flash recovery
'fastboot flash recovery recovery.img'
'fastboot reboot recovery'
3. Select apply update/apply from ADB
4. Connect device to PC
5. Sideload rom.zip
'adb sideload rom.zip'
6 Do Factory reset/format data from recovery
7. Restart to system
What happens:
Phone goes to fastboot and stays there.
When I try
fastboot reboot system
or
fastboot reboot recovery
I also land in fastboot again.
The only way to get out of fastboot again is fastboot boot recovery.img, which boots into recovery. When I then reboot into system, my old OOS11 boots up.
Because this is independent of the Custon ROM, there might be another issue. But which one?
You made sure you have latest OOS11 on BOTH slots?

When you're booted in OOS 11 just do a local install of the same OOS version that you're on. That will install OOS to the other slot, meaning you'll have the same OOS version on both slots and "should" be able to flash a custom rom.

U don't need the command fastboot reboot recovery. U can just use the volume buttons to select recovery and press power button to boot to recovery

Another way to set your phone up for a custom rom can be found here. https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/instantnoodlep/install
Just make sure your booting from a good 00S11 install when you do this.
I had a heck of a time with this two days ago. OP pushed c33, A12 on my phone. It took forever to corrupt both a and b enough to get twrp recovery installed and working to install A11 again. I had to load the recovery on both slots, a and b and I used twrp install to install the OTA to slot a. Right now I have nothing on slot b other that twrp recovery.
