It´s boot to Stock recovery,Factory reset and wipe cache and reboot
the Phone boot into System

Ok, look please other part of question:
How to format data from erecovery, no this option
Sent from my SM-T815 using XDA-Developers Legacy app

I don't know if I understand correctly (I'm new to this stuff) but I got back to Emui 4.1.
I installed the Rom without root successfully but messed up the instructions to root and got stuck in some sort of bootloop.
Then Emui reinstalled a factory fresh B027 over wifi and upgraded to B029.
I think this happened with charge/data cable plugged into the PC and pressing the volume up button on reboot.
Apologies if that is not what you meant but it seems to be difficult to brick the phone

Have you solved viber WhatsApp notification?
And most problem: brightness drop in Browser and dialer?

I copy Whatsapp in System/App,give Permissions and no Problems.
Which Brightness Problem? I have not Problems with it.

Ok, for viber and WhatsApp same solution as on 4.1?
Try any browser in middle light conditions / system reduce brightness in browser and dialer more then any other app and more then is ok for use...

On all huawei nougat same problem

I'm having problems copying Apps on System/App folder. When I try copying the APK file, it says there is not enough space. I even tried in TWRP and it is says it can't copy it. I even tried mounting the system folder. Any ideas?

using, it is super fast but I have some problems:
-nova launcher unread notifications counter can not be switch on. It is switched on, but go off immediately
UPD.: solved by give nova and tesla unread every possible rights in phoneManager and apps..
-it seems to me that non huawei app (google, chrome, any...) have some delay on opening, like OS check them somehow?
- browser in middle light conditions / system reduce brightness in browser and dialer more then any other app and more then is ok for use...
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sho....php?t=3559949
If somebody not see this: on middle bright conditions open chrome, brightness drop. Tap navigation key recent apps, chrome is in foreground it is clear seen that brightnes rise. tap again chrome, brightness drop whet it on stays active... ugly. it was same in emui 4.1 but as solving by batery mode performance option use instead balanced
probably they have not made battery profiles for beta version and nothing can be done...
UPD.: solved by force stop, dissable boot, freeze Power Genius (com.Huawei.powergenie) in sd maid.
maybe imonitor (com.huawei.imonitor) is also battery app, if somebody knows??

What bugs that you faced after booting the Rom ? Is this version stable for daily use
And Thank you so much for posting this thread

@letschky WHAT is best procedure to roll back to b027?

I just got this phone about 8 days ago, and I have a few questions if anyone can answer, I already had the EMUI 5.0 installed on my phone (a reset of the phone triggered a download after signing up with the Huawei ID).
1) I noticed that after I installed the decrypted boot image some of the features disappeared, like the themes, and the changing of the pictures on the lock screen, and the icons seems to be all over the place.
2) I noticed some of the settings are missing, like before rooting and unlocking there was an option to save power by making the screen dark, now it seems that option is gone.
3) If after rooting could you re-lock the bootloader and still keep root?
Also lastly, does anyone here have the english version of HiVoice (HwVAssistant.apk) thats not deodexed? I wanted to try this out but the only version I see is the deodexed and I havent tried yet but I think it still wont work on a rooted phone since the rom isnt deodexed. The reason I am asking is my car is picking it up as Siri (I know its not) but if it works like siri it would be golden.

Welp I cant get my phone back, I was trying to get back to stock, and nothing is working stuck at the honor logo, even tried to go back to emui 5.0 following the directions here, but data keeps not staying mounted. And recovery over WLan wont work because it says failed to get package info. Anybody have any ideas?

[GUIDE] How to get CM 14.1 working.

Hi,
So I have created this thread just because I can see many people creating new threads as after flashing CM 14.1, their phone doesn't boot up. So for all those who are going to flash CM 14.1 or have already flashed it and can't get it working, this thread is for you.
What you will need:
1. Rooted OnePlus X (Obviously)
2. Custom Recovery (TWRP recommended)
3. Latest CM 14.1 build
4. Arsenic Kernel or BlackReactor Kernel
So this is how you get CM 14.1 working on your OPX (make sure your battery is above 80% just to be sure that nothing will go wrong considering battery's point of view)
Make sure you have backed up everything before performing the following steps as the process will wipe your data completely. (I would recommend to take a Titanium backup of all user apps and then taking a nandroid backup of system and data)
1. Download the required files and place them in your SD Card or internal storage
2. Reboot your device into recovery
3. Go to wipe, and swipe to factory reset (Note! This will completely wipe all the data from your device including app data and SMS! This won't wipe the contacts but just to be safe, have a backup of all your contacts)
4. Go to Wipe again, and go to Advanced wipe, select the following partitions - System, Cache, Dalvik cache. Swipe to wipe (Note! Make sure you have a backup of the System as this will wipe the Operating System from your phone!) Although this step isn't necessary, I like to do it.
5. Go to install, and direct to the location where you have saved the CM 14.1 zip file and the kernel. Select the files, and swipe to flash.
6. If you want anything else in your system, direct to that location, select the zip file, and swipe to flash. (Note! You need not flash the SuperSU zip file as CM offers Root access in developer options)
7. Reboot your system and wait for it to boot.
Viola! Your device is now running official CM 14.1 nightly.
Hope this helps! ?
Downloads:
1. Latest CyanogenMod nightly - found here https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=onyx
You can have any version of the nightly as long as it is CM 14.1
2. Arsenic Kernel R32 (or R31) - http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/development/kernel-arsenic-kernel-r2-t3422020
Open the above thread and follow the guide
OR
Black Reactor kernel v1.0 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/development/kernel-blackreactor-kernel-oneplus-x-t3460989
-Reserved-
Good Evening, @aamodjoshi23 THX a Lot. You are my Hero. Finally it works.
greetings
If you're facing some Error 7 while trying to flash cm 14.1, you can try updating the bootloader following this
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=69267239&postcount=2560
I used the Oxygen OS 3.13 full ROM as recommended, edited updater-script (following those instructions)
Immediately after flashing the OOS 3.13 rom, you don't have to reboot.
I immediately flashed twrp 3.0.3 original from https://dl.twrp.me/onyx/
I then rebooted into twrp 3.0.3 (using the reboot button in twrp, then bootloader)
Then I installed (in this order):
cm 14.1 (https://download.cyanogenmod.org/?device=onyx)
arsenic kernel (as recommended above)
opengapps
Not sure if this step is necessary, but I wanted to let twrp patch the rom to not overwrite twrp so I rebooted into twrp again (using reboot --> bootloader in twrp)
Then I used reboot --> system
First boot took a while, but now I have nougat!!
kenel zip every time
Do i need to flash the kenel zip every time I update the the cm 14.1 zip file?

Yes, as when you flash the CM 14.1 build, the kernel that is provided with the build is also flashed, and that is not supported. So you need to flash it every time you flash a CM 14.1 build, but if you want to flash any other build, something like CM 13.0, then you need not as the kernels provided in those are supported.

Hi,
I have a very specific problem. I rooted my Oneplus x few months back and everything was fine. I use to get update notifications and after downloading it use to update automatically. But since last 2 months i download the update files but it takes me to recovery and then i cant find the zip file to flash/install. (i also started using external sd card two months back, but not sure if it has to do anything with this). I tried searching a solution on web - tried checking 'system' under Mount tab, installed an app for auto update and some more but no use. I even connected my phone in recovery mode to laptop and copied the zip file to internal memory but while flashing it gave error.
Now i am not sure what the problem is. Do i need to update my recovery or something else. Pls help.

In October oneplus updated to 6.0.1 officially i.e OOS 3 it brings new bootloader to the device as you are using old recovery you can't flash new update..so you need to upgrade to latest bootloader by following thread available in general section or you can flash stock recovery and upgrade to latest OOS and flash whatever you want to flash..I recommend you to see how to upgrade bootloader in general section if you are planning to flash custom ROMs or if want to flash latest OOS then simply flash stock recovery and upgrade. onece you updated to OOS 3 after that you can flash new official twrp 3.0.3.0 from its official page.

I made a blunder. I read somewhere to upgrade TWRP to 3.0.3 and after doing that now i just can't access the recovery mode. When i try to boot in recovery mode the screen gets stuck with One+ logo. Then I even tried to Factory reset and the phone rebooted to the same screen stuck with logo. I longed pressed the power button and it got switched off and then again turned it on. It started and is working fine but I cant factory set it, nor cant I access recovery to flash anything.

This is because you flashed wrong recovery twrp 3.0.3 is for new bootloader and you are on old bootloader..that's why it all happened..so you just need to flash old recovery..then follow given link to upgrade bootloader and recovery.

I've got a good news and bad news for you.
The bad news is, no one has the older 2.8.x TWRP image files and there are no threads that have the download links for the older version of TWRP. So you're stuck and you have lost your recovery. You have lost everything... Having no recovery means you can't do a lot of things like factory reset, any wipe of a partition, you won't be able to update your system, you won't be able to flash zip files to enhance your experience and many more... I'm sorry my friend...
The good news is, I've got you covered. I had saved the older TWRP so that if anyone one day would need that recovery image, I would be able to help them.
Download the older TWRP from here : https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B2Ms-zaNd3SiTmpxX0UtYUV2R1k/view?usp=drivesdk
Flash it. You should get back your recovery.

By stuck on boot, I didn't know you meant that it showed only the OnePlus logo and not even powered by Android.
In that case, follow this guide to update your bootloader :

What would the proper sequence of steps be to flash this? I'm currently running Pixeldusts latest with April BL and TWRP rc1
Edit: nevermind I am an idiot
I may be wrong but I thought we weren't able to flash gapps on the pixel? Also, what build is this based on?
Error!
Just tried flashing. On April bootloader. Got an error message:
"Could not find the 'META/INF/com/google/android/update-binary' in the zip file"
Oh, well.
Oops - error was because I was trying to install from TWRP that was using fastboot! Once I flashed TWRP, installation was perfect!

i tried after writing the instruction but nothing works either. even i cannot even boot to the lockscreen properly. my bad
follow this method and it works but not working google backup setup, so you should install apps and backup settings manually
1. go to fastboot mode and boot twrp rc1
2. flash data, system, cache
3. install rom
4. reboot to system and unlock the lockscreen (it means swipe the lockscreen)
5. turn off your phone, go to fastboot mode and boot twrp rc1 again
6. flash twrp rc2 -> bootsigner
7. reboot to twrp
8. install beansgapps
9. reboot to system
i hope it helps

Working so far....
I'm on the April Bootloader, and this ROM is working like a charm so far. My steps:
1. Install TWRP, boot into Recovery
2. Wipe
3. Install PA ROM
4. Reboot into System, and then boot into Fastboot
5. Reinstall TWRP, boot into Recovery
6. Install Open GApps (Nano package)
7. Reboot into System
8. Boot into TWRP
9. Install SuperSU
10. Reboot into System
11. Used Titanium Backup to reinstall apps and data
With this method, everything seems to work. I guess if you are on May bootloader you will need to reflash the boot signer after each step involving flashing sometime from TWRP?

Does this have all the navbar and status bar mods?
And does setup wizard cloud backup work with the nano GApps? I tried full and it would only allow phone to phone back up.

Not sure which mods you're referring to. It has immersive mode, and Pie controls.

if you boot the phone after follows that instruction and flash nano gapps,
Hello screen - wifi setting - connect pixel<->other phone(mine was nexus5) - then the screen said you must use other way to restore back up - select cloud backup - email and password - restore backup
In that case you can restore your apps and backup settings from cloud backup cause i tried and works perfect.
i tried everything to restore cloud backup without connecting other phone but cannot found any ideas.

OnePlus 5 problem after update to 8.0 (Beta)

*** Sorry, my English isn't good ***
Hi, I have a problem with OP5, I decided to install OOS 8.0 (Beta), I had OOS on 7.1.1 (Root) (TWRP), I made full wipe in TWRP and installed OOS 4.5.14 (7.1.1), after that i get Stock Recovery and Iupgraded OOS to 8.0 (According to the OnePlus manual) -> Bootloop. I decided to go back to 7.1.1 -> Error, I uploaded TWRP and another attempt to download 7.1.1 -> The system got up but I can not do anything because I have an error "Udecrypting the device. (Write to do "Factory reset"), so again to TWRP -> Full Wipe and here is interesting, I get my error "Wrong argument", the phone does not see my built in memory (I write that I have 0mb), what can I do in this situation? Anyone know?
ERROR in TWRP: "Unable to mount storage"
Please help me.
Go to recovery -wipe-advanced wipe-data-repair or change file system- change file system. First select EXT2 and after that EXT4 and now you should be able to use your storage but you need to flash new TWRP (try this one https://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/dl/?id=27442)

Thank you for that link. I was having another issue - the TWRP downloaded from the official site didn't work on the latest Oreo beta build and didn't overwrite the stock recovery and couldn't mount /data. This one did.
yeah im having major issues with mine, im now stuck in a download mode i cant get out of !
The first question is, you want to go Oreo or return nougat? In the first case, go to the dedicated thread, download the black TWRP and format data (if you can't read anything) reboot to TWRP again now copy the Oreo firmware and install it from the same recovery, reboot to recovery again if you don't have the stock one automatically installed, just flash it via TWRP. So once you're in stock recovery format EVERYTHING, reboot to system, and after you've configured the initial setup of your device if you want reboot to bootloader and reinstall the black TWRP and flash magisk 14.56 for root.. I've done this for getting this Oreo rom works
Exactly happened with me too. I even accidentally deleted all the contents of my storage. Tried to sideload via adb but got unknown device error. This thread worked for me
https://thedroidguru.com/how-to-unbrick-oneplus-5-phone-with-official-tool/
ive just restored the latest nougat firmware/radios and jumped back onto an aosp build until op5 gets official Oreo build

After first boot /data mount is gone in TWRP

I've got a SM-G950F, and succesfully flashed TWRP on it.
Wiped /data, after that i flashed dm-verity and force encryption disabler, everything was ok until the first boot into the system.
It booted up, and immediately after that i turned off the phone and booted into TWRP, and for some reason it couldnt mount /data again.
The tutorial i have followed:
Thanks for the tutorial to: jesec
Part 1 - HOW-TO FLASH TWRP:
1. In your ROM, go to Settings -> About device. Tap 7 times on Build number to enable Developer options.
2. Go to Settings -> Developer options and enable OEM Unlock option.
3. Download and Install Samsung Mobile Phones Drivers.
- Option 1: Download and Install Smart Switch for PC.
- Option 2: Download and Install standalone driver package.
4. Download and extract Odin (Samsung's Flash Tool) to your computer.
5. Download a .tar image of TWRP.
6. Reboot your device to download mode.
- Hold [VOLUME DOWN] + [BIXBY] + [POWER] for approx. 15 seconds.
- Read the warning carefully.
- If you agree, press [VOLUME UP] to get into Download mode. If you don't agree, STOP.
7. Open Odin and place that TWRP tar file in the [AP] slot.
8. Connect your phone.
9. Hold [VOLUME UP] + [BIXBY] + [POWER] on your phone and then press start on Odin.
10. Wait for the phone to reboot. DO NOT release [VOLUME UP] + [BIXBY] + [POWER] or you may not reboot into TWRP.
Part 2 - HOW-TO INITIALIZE TWRP: (for new phones)
1. If you completed Part 1 successfully, you should be in TWRP now. At this point, you will reach the screen asking you if you want to allow system modifications.
2. Select "Keep /system RO". (Don't swipe right or you may not be able to boot into system if you failed to complete next steps. However, you can swipe right to allow modifications if you are confident that you can complete next steps.)
3. Go to "Wipe" menu of TWRP and you will find "Format Data". Press "Format Data" and type "yes" to continue.
4. Go to "Reboot" menu and Press "Recovery" to reboot TWRP.
5. Download the latest dm-verity and force encryption disabler zip on your computer.
6. Transfer the zip to your phone.
- Option 1: MTP: Connect your phone with computer and just copy the zip to internal storage. (similar to how you transfer files when in system.)
- Option 2: ADB: Connect your phone with computer and run command "adb push /path/to/zip /sdcard/".
- Option 3: External SD: Copy the zip to an external SD and then insert the card to your phone.
7. Go to "Install" menu of TWRP and flash the zip.
TWRP is initialized and fully functional at this stage. Now you can either reboot into system or root, flash custom ROMs via TWRP.
Part 3 - HOW-TO ROOT:
1. Download the flashable zip.
- Option 1: Magisk
- Option 2: SuperSU (untested)
2. Transfer the zip to your phone.
3. Go to "Install" menu of TWRP and flash the zip.
Part 3a - HOW-TO FLASH CUSTOM ROMS:
1. Download the flashable zip.
2. Transfer the zip to your phone.
3. Go to "Install" menu of TWRP and flash the zip.
Simple.

Before the 1st boot i even rooted the device, that remained after the first boot, but no /data mount.
After the 5th try, i gave up.
What could be the problem, or is this normal on this phone?
Are you using latest twrp version 3.2.3.2
I'm using 3.2.1.0
kristof889 said:

Use latest twrp 3.2.3.2 should have data mount and quota issues fixed.
You can flash the .Img file through twrp or flash the .img.tar file with Odin.
After flashing reboot straight into twrp and repeat part 2 of the guide you quoted.
I would be interested to know also if in download mode if you have a line in there saying rmm state?
Twrp for s8 exynos
https://dl.twrp.me/dreamlte/
Installed the 3.2.3.2 version, but nothing has changed. after the first boot into system, TWRP says cant mount /data..
I dont have anything like rmm state in download mode.

I am assuming you followed the instructions that you quoted in your first post.(mainly part 2) after flashing twrp
Did you format data in twrp - not wipe - this is needed to decrypt your phone.
Rebooted back into twrp.
Did you flash the no verity opt zip (version 6) - this will disable re encryption of your phone when booting back into system.
This should all be done before booting back into system otherwise your phone will re encrypt itself.

I formatted data, not just wiped it.
I have installed the no verity opt, the latest version.
Even after these, my phone reencrypted itself.

When do the errors occur ie: during backup,restore,flashing something.
When first starting twrp did you swipe to allow modifications or did you leave it as read only.
You mean, the data mount error?
If yes, immediately after the 2nd boot into TWRP, after the first boot into system. Before i do anything in twrp, i check the log (with the button on the lower right) and it creates a bunch of errors, all in contact with the data partition.
So i can even do a proper backup.
If i flash any zip, upon the next boot into system it says something like verify failed, cannot reboot your phone and it gives a button wich used to restore the phone from recovery, but now i cant even do that bcoz it cant mount /data and thus can restore the phone.

Still sounds like you device is still encrypted.
Doing a factory reset with twrp should work to restore your phone or at worst you can re-flash your firmware.
If you can in twrp FORMAT data again and flash the no verity zip use version 6 zip file
https://build.nethunter.com/android-tools/no-verity-opt-encrypt/
I would be curious to know in twrp in the mount menu what options are ticked as well.
After the fresh flash, it was not encrypted because i could access the internal storage, and data was mounted.
Now in TWRP system(read only), cache and dalvik is mounted, and internal storage says 0MB

What Android version are you on?
When you flashed twrp it should have asked you whether or not to ' swipe to allow modifications ' did you swipe to allow or not.
In the mount menu of twrp I have ticked/checked data,cache,SD card the option at the bottom to allow read only I have ticked - this does not stop me from doing backups but does stop me from restoring (data mount error ) so you can leave it unticked.
I would.like to know your steps for twrp installation (not the one you quoted in first post) as I screwed up when I first tried.
I attached the software information bellow.
I have not swiped to allow for system modifications
First steps were the followimg:
Install .tra with odin
Immediately reboot to twrp
No swipe for system modifications
Format data
Flash no dm verity v6
(Flash magisk)
Reboot to system

Ok basically you have missed a step as far as I can see
(When I did mine I did swipe to allow modifications )
After you have formated data you will need to reboot back into twrp ( use reboot menu in twrp )
Then flash the no verity zip and magisk
If using magisk I would try the latest version 18 it's working ok for me.
Then boot into system to see if everything ok
Then reboot into twrp and see if the data mount issue is fixed.

Thank you for your advice. I will try it in the following days and will post the result.
I fixed this by flashing Renovate ICE's ROM and selecting the TWRP included in the AROMA installer.
Can access storage on TWRP now with no issues.

But i want to use the stock rom.
Maybe if i flash Renovate rom and after that again the stock?

Why stock???
It pretty much is stock, just you have full control over the apps preinstalled and you can change colours of various UI elements.
It's just easier to flash a zip than it is to flash via ODIN, then flash TWRP and keep trying over and over to get this result when I know this rom works fine with CTSprofile.
You will only need to flash TWRP once and copy the rom to your phone.
The rest is magic (AROMA)
I haven't really had to mess with anything and have just installed and used the HSBC banking app as if it were an official phone. (ROOTED and custom ROM and Recovery)
One extra step you could take is to use Magisk hide and point it to the app you want to hide root from.

So on that rom i can use s health and all knox based apps like normal?
If yes, i will try it, it looks very nice

Custom ROM works perfectly, after a reboot, bootloops

The title says it all, i have been using a custom ROM (Havoc OS) and the LolZ kernel with magisk, it works perfectly but as soon as i restart the system. it bootloops and i have to keep restoring, re installing and so on until it finally works.
Does anyone have an idea of what might be going on?
device: Samsung Galaxy Note 3 SM-N9005 hlte
Even more info incase you need it:
Steps to create problem for me:
Install Havoc OS
Install LolZ kernel
Install Magisk
Boot and use
Restart
(problem comes)
Steps to fix (Before):
Install Havoc OS
Get rid of remainders of magisk for lolz kernel
Install LolZ kernel
Install Magisk
Restore Data partition
Reboot to System
Right now nothing is working, ill try another way and update this
also, i noticed that instead of storage being in
/storage/emulated/0
its now in
/sdcard
according to twrp
Ok this should be the actuall way excluding ALL ways:
1. Reboot to cause the issue lol
2. Go to recovery (twrp recommended)
3. repair the system partition and data partition.
4. Shut down then connect to cable.
5. Let it boot, if it dosent boot to kernel and goes to recovery, try reformatting, 6. restoring, dont touch what you dont want lost etc then start from step 3 (If it goes to charging anim, ignore this step)
6. Let the charge animation play
7. after the screen turns off / you know the charging animation played
8. Boot via power button
9. Works!
Now i really feel a tiny bit better when rebooting my phone XD
If it bootloops after step 8, try reformatting, wiping, repairing, restoring etc-
