From Lineage OS to Oxygen OS - OnePlus 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi. I have OnePlus 2. I installed Lineage OS ROM using TWRP. However, 2 weeks ago my finger print scanner stopped working and I am unable to update any apps from the play store. I cleared cache also from the TWRP recovery.
I am unable to install latest version of Lineage OS either. Getting 'Error 7' when trying to flash the latest version of Lineage OS.
Now I want to remove TWRP and install Oxygen OS. How can I do that?
Thanks in advance.

Wipe everything except your internal storage and flash the stock firmware (full rom).The rom will replace twrp with stock recovery upon booting . @abhaykhanna

Replacing Cyanogen Recovery with TWRP using TWRP's App

Hello!
I have an S5 that was running CM 14.1. I had moved from 13.0 to 14.1 with out whipping everything, so things were not perfect.
I wanted to move to Lineage 14.1 with a clean install.
I booted in recovery (Cyanogenmod Recovery) and whipped as much as possible.
When trying to Apply Update with the Lineage OS 14.1 nightly .zip, I got the "failed to verify signature" error. I have redownloaded the rom a second time to make sure I did not have a corrupted .zip.
I ended up reinstalling CM 13 because that is what I had not to far and needed a working phone.
So my question is about the recovery and the error I got with the Lineage rom.
Do I get the error because the type of recovery I have or does the Lineage OS .zip is known for generating this error (since it's still all very new)?
If the recovery is the problem, can I use the Official TWRP App to switch from Cyanogenmod recovery to TWRP ?
I have already tried to replace the recovery in download mode but Heimdall 1.4 generated an error as well regarding the "PIT file" so the process got interrupted.
Thank you in advance for any input!
bump!
Surely someone can answer this simple question!
thanks!

Need some help - Strange OP6T storage issues after flash

Hello, I have a T-Mobile 6T which thanks to the XDA thread about bypassing T-mobile, is running the international firmware so I didn't have to kiss their butt trying to unlock the bootloader. Yesterday I decided to try the Resurrection Remix rom since it is unclear whether the Lineage 16 rom supports the in-display fingerprint reader, and I am too busy at work and too lazy to read the entire thread to see if it does.
I followed the instructions and updated my OxyOS to the latest .15 release via TWRP which I also updated to the latest version via OTG using a USB drive because I was unable to unencrypt using the older Blu-Spark TWRP version I had installed. After the OxyOS update (on both partitions) I flashed TWRP again, rebooted to recovery and installed Pico Gapps.
I found the Resurrection Remix rom to be very buggy and I hate the way the in-display biometric works (very slow and I don't like the paw print used as fingerprint placement). Anyway I started installing apps and after 4 apps installed, it says there is no space left in storage.
Nothing will update, and when I try to check storage with any file explorer it says "access denied" or just won't load. I've tried everything. Wiped the data and did factory reset, then flashed stock rom again and same issue. What am I doing wrong?
That looks like a messed up flash. And is pretty common. Considering that A/B is still new and everyone has his own method of flashing. So assuming you can make it back to latest Stock OOS (9.0.15 right now). If you dunno how to then simple reboot to recovery, flash OOS ZIP and then TWRP. Again Reboot to Recovery from within TWRP (Reboot -> Recovery) and again flash OOS ZIP and TWRP Installer. For TWRP I recommend you to grab the latest one (3.3.1-6 as of now). Once flashed, Format Data (Wipe -> Format Data -> YES) and Reboot. Wait for it to boot up. Now you should be on Stable Stock OOS with TWRP Installed.
Now Download ROM of your Choice (RR, LOS, Bootleggers, whatever). You will also need the latest TWRP Installer (same as above) and Gapps (Nano/ Stock Recommended) and Magisk if you want to Root. Reboot to Recovery, flash ROM ZIP and TWRP Installer ZIP. Wait for it to Finish. Reboot to Recovery. Once in TWRP, again flash ROM and TWRP Installer. Once done, again. Reboot to Recovery from Within TWRP. (Read above on how to). Now, flash Gapps. Magisk if you want to Root. Once done, again do a Format Data. Reboot and be patient for ROM to boot. And then tell me wether this works or Not. Good Luck.

[QUESTION] Not able to boot Custom ROM P8 Lite Alice (ALE-L21)

Hello together,
after 3 Days of reading and searching and testing solutions, I have to ask you if you can solve my problem.
I can't find the reason by myself, because I'm new with this topic. I want to install a Custom ROM on my Huawei P 8 Lite Alice from 2015, but everytime I flash any Custom ROM which should match, it ends in a bootloop (huawei logo, then logo custom rom, then huawei logo etc....).
My device:
Huawei P8 Lite ALE L21 from 2015 - Alice
Built number before start this "project": ALE-L21C432B634
Android 6
Emui 4.0.3
Bootloader unlocked with code generated by dc-unlocker
No Root
My prefered Custom ROM is Lineage OS 14.1 and I tried to flash it following the steps in this thread:
[url]https://forum.xda-developers.com/p8lite/development/rom-lineageos-14-1-p8-lite-t3824247[/URL]
1. step - Flash TWRP
First Problem was to install the TWRP 3.1.1 linked in this thread:
[url]https://forum.xda-developers.com/p8lite/orig-development/twrp-t3583180[/url][/URL]
To flash the TWRP image with adb caused no problem. When I boot into recovery, TWRP starts, but when I touch anything on the screen (like swipe to unlock) the System boots (With OS installed it boots the OS and without it stucks at huawei logo). Booting again into TWRP is no Problem.
I solved this problem with a TWRP image 3.1.0-1 from this forum:
[url]https://www.android-hilfe.de/forum/root-custom-roms-modding-fuer-huawei-p8-lite.2476/huawei-p8lite-neues-inoffizielles-twrp-3-1-0-1-von-surdu_petru-xda.826139.html[/URL]
The thread references on the same XDA thread mentioned above, but it is linked to another version of TWRP image. This Version 3.1.0-1 is working good.
2. step - flash EMUI 4.1
I flashed the EMUI Update B896 with TWRP. In the thread to the Lineage OS 14.1 mentioned above, it is described that you need this update. I used the linked .zip.
Steps:
1. Wipe Data, internal storage, system, Dalvik Cache, Cache (all except micro sd card).
2. Format Data
3. Reboot into TWRP
4. flash .zip from SD card
5. Wipe Davlik Cache and Cache
5. Reboot System
After that :
Android 6
Build number: ALE B896
EMUI: 4.1
The updated ROM works good.
3. Step - Flash Lineage OS 14.1
Steps:
1. Wipe Data, internal storage, system, Dalvik Cache, Cache (all except micro sd card).
2. Format Data
3. Reboot into TWRP
4. flash .zip from SD card
5. Wipe Davlik Cache and Cache
5. Reboot System
Result Boot Loop :victory:
Trouble shooting:
I tried to install different TWRP versions, but only the TWRP 3.1.0-1 works.
I useb adb sideload to flash the Lineage
I flashed the EMUI 4.03. I had before and than Lineage 14.1 (EMUI works, but Lineage doesn't)
I wiped dalvik cache and data, cache after flashing Lineage, to fix the bootloop
I flashed versions of Lineage OS 14.1 from different dates and different download websites
I flashed different Custom ROMS - all the same Problem except Lineage 13.0. Lineage 13.0 boots till it is ready to "preparing" apps and than boots again.
Now I don't know what do do and would be very thankful to get some new ideas to try or perhaps a solution
Thank you! :highfive:
The ROM needs Emui 4.1 B895/B896 update to be installed first
Then unlock bootloader, flash twrp then flash ROM
Thank you for your help. I'll try this. So I have to lock bootloader again first?
No. You flash the update with twrp

Maybe I described it not so good in my first post but I think I did it already exactly like that.
1. Unlock bootloader
2. Flash TWRP
3. Flash Emui 4.1 update B896 ( its working on my phone now)
4. Flash TWRP again
5. Flash Custom Rom ( evertime the result is a bootloop)
Or did I overlook anything?
Sorry I didn't read that part where you flashed emui 4.1
Lineage os 14.1 works for me.
Did you try Resurrection Remix OS

Thank you very much, that you tried to help me Im happy about all suggestions.
Yes I tried RR and Paranoid, but its the same Problem. I'm wondering that the EMUI Roms which are not officially from Huawei work and any custom rom does not. Maybe there is a Problem with the structure of my system but I dont know anything about this stuff and how to find out the reason for my Problem:laugh:
Maybe you know a command for adb or android terminal app to check if everything is ok?

Can't install any ROM.

Hi,
I used Lineage OS 17.1 Lavender on my Xiaomi Redmi Note 7. I used their recovery to install the ROM and open gapps. Recently I downloaded the Brave Browser and I wanted to enable rewards. I than googled, that Brave doesn't allow rewards on rooted phones. I decided to wipe the entire phone, since I don't use the root functionality and to re-flash Lineage OS 17.1. I factory reseted the phone and wiped everything, just like I did, when I installed Lineage for the first time. I clicked on "Yes" when prompted that the ISO couldn't be verified, and waited for the flash. After a while I was "greeted" with Updater process ended with Error 7. I did some research and found out that it is something to do with the updater file verification and that I should try and delete some lines. I did that, but the error persisted. I than decided to try another ROM. I used Pixel Experience since it was working on my device before. Unfortunatly I had no luck. Same error message. I than tried to flash TWRP with fastboot, which worked. Wiped my device, just like they say it in all the guides (Dalvik, Data, Cache) and tried to flash Lineage (still no luck), than PixelExperience (still no luck) and Magisk worked. After I flashed Magisk I tried Lineage and Pixel once again, but still the same error.
If you know, how to fix that error I will be so glad. Is it possible that my device is bricked and beyond recovery? Thank you in advance.
update your tvvrp
Which firmware do you have installed? Use stable to maximum compatibility, on some ROMs if you have latest you gonna get that error. Also, use the latest TWRP or Orange Fox.
As Tatoh said, this error occurs when you have old firmware flashed on your RN7, some roms require specific version but usually flashing latest stable will give you best compatibility, here you have xda links to latest xiaomi firmware files: https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-7/development/firmware-xiaomi-redmi-note-7-t3925871
