6T stuck in "the bootloader is unlocked" screen - OnePlus 6T Questions & Answers

Hello,
I've installed a twrp recovery file on my oneplus 6t recently, and for some reason after trying to boot up the OS this frozen "bootloader is unlocked" screen appears. It won't go away! The screen turns black for a second after holding down the volume up+power button, but then goes back to the "bootloader is unlocked" screen again. Draining the battery doesn't help either.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

You probably have to MSMTool it but you could try activating your other partition.
Code:
fastboot --set-active=a
Or
Code:
fastboot --set-active=b
You didn't give much info on what happened exactly. We dig the technical details on here!

Is your phone the T-Mobile or International version?
If International, have a look at this thread and see if the issue you are facing is similar to mine. The solution posted by Mannan Qamar further down the thread is what solved the issue for me, and I've detailed the solution step by step in the latest post in that thread.

Thanks for replying!
For some reason after days of desperately trying to fix it, the 6t it suddenly booted into fastboot after being battery-drained. I am not experienced in rooting at all but I think this stuck "bootloader is unlocked" issue happened when I installed the twrp file via the "flash boot_a" instead of the "flash recovery".
FAILED (remote: '(recovery_a) No such partition')
comes up when using the normal "flash recovery".
So the flashing is the main problem I guess. Is there any other way to install twrp?

You need to boot TWRP first as there is no recovery partition to flash to (hence the error). From there, you can flash a TWRP installer as explained in the TWRP thread. If you're not knowledgeable or have doubts about the topic then I strongly recommend in reading thoroughly before taking any actions.
Alternatively, you can flash from within Magisk Manager when you get the boot image right as explained in my previous post here. That can be a bumpy ride though! You've been warned
Just note that, with Android 10 (if that is your goal), the safest option is having root without TWRP recovery. If you're sticking with Android Pie, just ignore these last two paragraphs.

I tried "fastboot boot twrp.img" before but then the next issue comes up...
Sending 'boot.img' (31136 KB) OKAY [ 0.667s]
Booting FAILED (remote: 'unknown command')

Are you on Android 10? Because in that case this is expected behaviour or in sweet dev terms: by design. OOS Android 10 Beta 1 doesn't allow TWRP for some reason. You can only get it by fastboot flashing a patched boot image or via a Magisk flash. You also need some luck because in both cases it can fail miserably. On top of that, you need some old keymaster to be able to access any files. It's all a true joyride for now, lol...

Wait, "fastboot boot twrp.img" gives you "Sending 'boot.img'"? That can't be. Enlighten us on version numbers first please.

Its interesting because I managed to get TWRP working the first time and if I remember correctly it was via the "flash boot_a" command. And yes it was through the Open Beta version of Android 10. I think this whole "bootloader is unlocked" problem was caused after rebooting from twrp.
How do you fastboot flash a patched boot image if flashing a normal boot image cause errors? I really appreciate you taking your time on this.

There could be many reasons; Android works in mysterious ways. The "bootloader is unlocked" screen shows the minute you.. well, unlock your bootloader (fastboot oem unlock)
The fact that it freezes is simply because it finds something to boot but it fails to do so, which could be either an OS or a recovery. I've been there as well but forcing a restart with power+volume buttons did fix it for me (different situation of course, it was months ago).
Trust me, experiencing these annoying situations is the best way to learn more about your device. Before you know it you'll be playing around with fastboot, adb, recoveries, ROMs, kernels and mods like a pro.

Booting OS doesn't work(-> "freeze screen"), recovery mode doesn't work(-> also freeze) and installing new recovery files won't work either because it's in the beta version of android 10. So my 6t is completely broken unless twrp releases an open beta android 10 version of their recovery file?

Great. What did you do this time? lol. I thought you had it working. Not to worry, you can always resort to the MSMtool (found here). But before you do, there's a few 'softer' methods you can try. I advise reading the first post of this thread.
One piece of advice: if at all possible, try avoiding locking the bootloader again. It serves no purpose and can only create more problems. I have to admit that I haven't used MSMtool myself (been quite lucky so far) but I'm guessing it locks the bootloader in its automated process. If there's a switch to prevent that, use it! If not, ah well...

Nah. It locks the Bootloader. Meaning if something went wrong you can't do anything. Happened to one guy here but I guess that was cause he erased persist. Another thing about MSM is that it only flashes One Slot.

That's why I referred to the 'softer' methods, sometimes just switching partition slots can solve all your problems.

OP2 stuck in bootloop on upgrading 3.0.2 .. even after trying tons of things

First of all i want to say thankyou to the xda community who help people like us and build rooting and other flashing softwares.
So, this is probably my first post on xda, first for sure when i'm stuck and asking for help
Background of the Problem:
I was on OS 2.1.2 rooted with twrp recovery. (was really happy with my phone)
MM 3.0.2 upgrade comes and i decide to upgrade my phone manually (since ota was disabled due to root)
All goes well in first try..(did a dirty flash) OP2 3.0.2 runs smoothly
However, i found out i had lost root and couldn't boot into recovery.
I ignored for a month when i decided it was too hard to go on without root now..
So i searched through a few forums, went into fastboot tried oem unlocking.. failed.. Stuck hard in the bootloop..
Searched for about 3hours and used the MSM tool to finally unlock bootloader.. but still stuck at bootloop and no luck with recovery.. I couldn't boot into my installed rom(3.0.2)
I flashed recovery from OOS 2.1.2 or 2.0.1 and booted into recovery and flashed 2.1.2 again..
So now, 2.1.2 runs fine on my phone
I have refered to these guides/files while trying to install 3.0.2 or trying to recover my phone

i have tried flashing grarak recovery and hybrid recovery (both of which i believe are modded recovery for OOS MM)
In cmd, fastboot flash command completes without any problem but the phone doesnt boot to recovery and both give an error while giving the fastboot boot command
" downloading boot.img

Please suggest me something so that i can boot into 3.0.2 without bootloop problem.. 3.0.2 runs really smooth..

Heyy.. Thanks a lot Jyoti_re! It worked out perfectly..
I have done till step 3.. The phone booted into 3.0.2
The sensors are not working. I will flash the presist.img as you said in step 4
However, i have encountered a problem. My OP2 is a 64 GB version. But now the internal storage shows 7gb free out of 9.66 GB.. Earlier it used to show 54GB instead of 9.66..
What should i do?
Thanks again
Yes u must have to flash persist.img via firstboot mode by typing [ fastboot flash persist ] for sensor correctly working.
Install es file explorar from play store and check which folder taking More space
don't forget to press thanks if I helped u.
Thanks a lot Jyoti! /
Yeah i got it.. Flashed the persist img.
i searched through the forums.. somehow my device got the 16gb version img.. i dont know how..
i had to flash userdata64G.img as well
Now it all works perfectly.. sensors are working.. data storage is back at 54gb..
Thanks a lot! I had been stuck on this bootloop since 3 days..
and i pressed the thanks button.. i will press it 100 times over if possible Thanks again! Cheers!
Just to confirm.. Can i flash supersu via recovery now to get root? i hope it wont lead me to bootloops.. If there is some specific supersu file to flash for OOS 3.0.2 please guide me to it.. Thanks!

When you are in fastboot mode..
Try giving the command
"fastboot continue"
or
"fastboot reboot-bootloader"
"fastboot continue"
(without quotes) if your system files are not corrupt, it will boot you into your rom.. and then enable oem unlocking from settings
Tried this commands and the system reboots and stucks on the screen powered by android.

A2017G Bootloader mode on 7.1.1?

EDIT: Fixed! Big thanks to @S0wL , @bkores , @tamahouse02 and @tron1 for the help. I made a guide to help other people with the same problem:
Guide to get TWRP again HERE
Okay, it seems to me that I messed up kinda badly. The phone is fully operational, but after I got to 7.0 the stock recovery replaced good ol' TWRP... which left me with an unlocked bootloader and an useless recovery. I have no root, and that's pretty much the only thing that matters to me. I downloaded @bkores 's Axon7Toolkit but there is NO way to get fastboot on the damned thing. After the program tries to get to bl mode (I assume adb reboot bootloader?) the ZTE logo flashes and the unlocked BL image appears, then the phone starts as normal.
Same thing with the leaked 7.1.1, no difference.
I tried EDL, recovery, that shady factory test mode thing, no one gives fastboot... Any ideas as to why I can't get there??+
I suspect it may be something related to the OEM unlocking option in the dev options, but it is set to ON and greyed out. so no idea
Try the menu on the boot screen.

Sounds like the issue is with the ROM like it is somehow blocking you from accessing bootloader mode. It's definitely not my toolkit.

Feel the same, 7.1.1 stock recovery is evil, it keep coming back after flash twrp. LOL
Here what I didi to get twrp on 7.1.1:
1. Use axon7tool -w recovery (twrp of couse)
2. Watch closely the cmd, when it said "Successful!","Reboot in 5 second" - unplug your phone
3. Use Volume Up + Power to get to recovery (twrp)
4. Mount > Mount System (dont check read only)
5. Flash something - I don't know - But I get the feeling that it stop stock recovery coming back - I personally flash Chinese Modem (because I have to ))
6. Reboot system
@bkores Yeah I'm pretty sure it's not your toolkit since I can't access it even with key comb, adb, option on the unl bl page...
@lafester Nope, tried many times. It just boots to normal whenever I select fastboot
@tamahouse02 Well I believe that should work, but I can't get axon7tool not to crash... I'll keep trying, maybe it's a driver or sth.

the thing is that I had to do the same when I did the stuff on android 6 and it worked after some time. I even wrote the procedure on another thread xd

Not same my axon7tool. I use this https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/development/axon7tool-flash-backup-boot-recovery-t3514254
Bootloader Mode is Disable/strip in G variant, and if this is how ZTE is headed to future updates it seems like U will have a Disable Bootloader Mode as well.
If you guy can rollback to MM , you can Unlock there using @bkores tool.

I was thinking about that, but does mifavor let you roll back from an SD update? I'll try later, but i doubt it.
Besides from that is there any way to flash stuff from the stock recovery? It tells me that ZIPs have to be signed only

Feel the same, 7.1.1 stock recovery is evil, it keep coming back after flash twrp. LOL
Here what I didi to get twrp on 7.1.1:
1. Use axon7tool -w recovery (twrp of couse)
2. Watch closely the cmd, when it said "Successful!","Reboot in 5 second" - unplug your phone
3. Use Volume Up + Power to get to recovery (twrp)
4. Mount > Mount System (dont check read only)
5. Flash something - I don't know - But I get the feeling that it stop stock recovery coming back - I personally flash Chinese Modem (because I have to ))
6. Reboot system

Official 3.0.4.1
@tamahouse02
The latest "official" TWRP is at TWRP site https://twrp.me/devices/zteaxon7.html , version 3.1.0-0.
Is there any problem using it instead of the previous "official" 3.0.4.1 ?
Edit: I also read on TWRP site:
"Note many devices will replace your custom recovery automatically during first boot. To prevent this, use Google to find the proper key combo to enter recovery. After typing fastboot reboot, hold the key combo and boot to TWRP. Once TWRP is booted, TWRP will patch the stock ROM to prevent the stock ROM from replacing TWRP. If you don't follow this step, you will have to repeat the install."
This is in sync with your information requiring to reboot immediately to TWRP (step 2 and 3).

I use 3.0.4.1 because I flash plenty things before without any issue, so I keep using it.
After write recovery by axon7tool, it's reboot automatically and override the recovery, that why I have to unplug to stop the reboot, and also flash all I can - fortunaeally​ it also stop recovery be overrided
@tamahouse02 sorry to ask, but is the a7tool of the link a fixed version? how does it differ from the one i have?
I've been in the same situation like you @Choose an username... Updated to nougat on G model and I had not bootloader. This is what I did :
1. Downloaded the tool from here https://forum.xda-developers.com/axon-7/development/tool-axon7toolkit-t3573108
2. Installed the driver using the install driver option that you can choose once you connect you phone to your computer
3. Use the tool to perform the unlock bootloader command again even though you have unlocked it before
4. Use the tool to install twrp, it will boot the phone in twrp
5. Flash Supersu before you boot the system first time after flashing twrp
5. Install whatever version of android want after
@S0wL Funny, I had to use Zadig to make it work. I'll try r n, thx

Bricked OnePlus 6T, MSMDownloadTool not fixing it

Hi guys, I have kinda big problem.
Yesterday I was messing around with my device just to understand how the a/b partitions work. Then I decided to install a custom rom but TWRP was throwing me errors at the end of the installation (cannot mount /system (access denied) or something like that). After this problem I thought the best solution was to erase every partition (yes, I'm an idiot) throught fastboot and then reflash the phone with msmdownloadtool. I did exactly that and when the unbrick tool finished the phone rebooted and got stuck on the boot screen (the big red circle and the two smaller ones around it). I don't know what to do, I tried almost every version of msmdownloadtool (even the h2os one), I tried unlocking the bootloader, but the phone rejects it and I'm still stuck in a bootloop.
Please help me, I'm running out of ideas and I don't want to have a 570€ paperweight.
Sorry if my english is bad, this is not my native language.

Try only MSMTool again. It is the ultimate solution for bricks.
If that doesn't help, then contact OnePlus and behave dumb. Just say your device stopped working

Lo siento por mi ingles. Tuve el mismo problema y lo resolví con comandos ADB. No recuerdo cómo. Estoy seguro de que tuve suerte ... Tal vez puedas intentarlo. Al menos, la PC debería leer el modo fastboot y comenzar a hacer algo.

I think I'll have to send it to OnePlus. But before that I would like to try to revive it. I can access fastboot, but the bootloader is locked, can I do something in fastboot or with the locked bootloader I'm out of luck?
Thanks.
Don't worry I understood you.
The problem is I can't access to adb because the stock recovery doesn't allow and I can't boot any custom recovery because my bootloader I locked.
Thanks.
I have the same issue with oneplus x, and I followed this method, https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/general/guide-mega-unbrick-guide-hard-bricked-t3272108
So try to get stock recovery mode on you phone, then try to flash stock rom. Later you can go for the TWRP and Magisk Installation for Root access.

The problem is the OnePlus 6T doesn't have an adb sideload option in the stock recovery so I can't sideload anything and the msmdownloadtool left me with the bootloader locked, so I can't flash anything in fastboot nor boot a custom recovery.
Thanks.

Try fastbooting the stock boot.img, follow the instructions below...
Reboot to Bootloader
Open up a command prompt in the folder with the boot.img
Enter the command
Code:
fastboot boot *insert boot.img name here*
Nothing, just wait for your phone to boot
1. Download full OTA to your pc and unzip https://androidfilehost.com/?fid=1395089523397891265
2. Edit flash-all-partitions.bat and put this line on the top "fastboot -w" and save
3. double click flash-all-partitions.bat
4. If step 3 still showing error. Edit flash-all-partitions.bat and add "fastboot set_active other" on the top and save then repeat step 3 again.

I tried entering in fastboot mode and writing "fastboot -w" but it says "FAILED (remote: 'Erase is not allowed in Lock State')". I think it's because the bootloader is locked, I don't know what can I do next.
Thanks.
Is there any way that I could wipe everything in EDL mode? Is the only thing I think it could fix the phone.
Please could you give me more suggestions. I don't know what to do, I flashed the phone with MSMDownloadTool at least ten times and still nothing, it only shows the boot animation and gets stuck there and fastboot doesn't accept any command because of the locked bootloader.
Thanks.

Which version of the MSM tool are you using?
Is the phone fully charged?
How long are you waiting for the phone to boot? When you say stuck do you just leave the phone alone?
After MSM the first boot is a long time.

I'm using the v4.0.58 one with OOS 9.0.11, yes the phone is at 75%.
I wait around an hour to see if it boots, but nothing.
When I said that my phone got stuck I meant that it got stuck in the boot animation and nothing else happens.
Yeah, I know, but I don't think it needs an hour to boot.
Thanks.

Dunno if this will work but after reflashing another time. Boot to stock recovery and factory reset. I dunno the exact procedure but I assume you boot to bootloader and from there boot to recovery and do a factory reset. I had something similar. I flashed OOS via TWRP after soft bricking my phone. And factory reset fixed it. Tho in my case it didn't even load the bootanimation. Just the Unlock Warning and reboot.

I tried that and it's still stuck on the boot animation, I think it's just a hardware problem because back then with my OnePlus 3T I did the same and it worked just fine. I contacted OnePlus and they accepted sending the phone to them. I'll see when they examine it what is their answer.
Thanks.
What I did to brick it was using this guide: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6t/how-to/rom-stock-fastboot-roms-oneplus-6t-t3862516
And inside the manual flash section there are a lot of fastboot commands.
What I did was using only the fastboot ones and replacing "flash" to "erase" to delete every partition. After that I flashed the phone using msmdownloadtool right away. My question is: Could this be the cause that my phone is in bootloop?
Thanks.

URGENT!! NO Recovery, No OS and stuck in bootloader is unlocked warning screen (OP6T)

Once I installed the stable version of android Q on my OP6T, I tried to install TWRP on it, however it said "FAILED! Unknown remote command". I then saw a thread saying that they have successfully installed TWRP on android Q on their oneplus6 using 'fastboot flash boot boot.img'. I instead typed 'fastboot flash boot twrp.img' and rebooted the phone. From there my phone is just stuck on the bootloader is unlocked warning screen. The device is unable to be detected by my PC as well. so anything through ADB is not possible. What do I do?
I tried pressing the vol up and power button to get it to fastboot mode, but it just turns off for a second and goes back to the bootloader is unlocked warning screen.
Please help me out
Thank you

First of all: breathe. You'll fix this. Don't worry. And if you really can't (rarely happens), OnePlus has your back.
Did you know you can press power + both volume buttons for about 10 seconds to force the device to go off? Try that, leave it for a couple of seconds and try booting again (normally), try that a few times and if unsuccessful, let us know if booting to fastboot works.
You can go nuclear instantly with MSMTool, that'll be your quickest and easiest way to salvation (if normal booting doesn't work). Don't use this tool just yet, we have another trick to try first (if fastboot works).

Of course it works, Android is awesome like that. Try:
Code:
fastboot --set-active=a
and reboot (fastboot reboot). If that doesn't work, try
Code:
fastboot --set-active=b
and reboot again. There's a good chance one of the partitions will still boot.

I am able to boot into partition B, it leads me to stock OOS Recovery
Flashing another patched boot image is another option. I used this one. Make sure to flash it to both partitions with these commands:
Code:
fastboot flash boot_a magisk_patched.img
fastboot flash boot_b magisk_patched.img
If that fails, you should indeed try a stock img. If you're on a T-Mobile (converted or not) device, go straight to MSMTool.

I know but if you don't get an OS to boot in, it doesn't have much use. Proceed with the boot image flashing in fastboot. You may need to switch partition to A again when regular reboot doesn't work after flashing.

It just won't work, would be my guess. There are patched images that include TWRP and it could be flashed via Magisk but in both situations the result is unpredictable: a working TWRP, TWRP without decryption or total brick. It's device gambling, lol

Found solution - please delete this post.
ROFL, you know if you read a few threads you could have avoided this.
Also, if you need your phone so urgently always, maybe you should just run stable and not run Betas which are always prone to problems.
Anyway, easy fix to get back to stable.

I actually don't remember excatly anymore but I somehow got in to fastboot and flashed stock boot.img and got it working. Tho I have still problem uninstalling the magisk module, because twrp don't wan't to decrypt my storage, and I tried to build magisk core only mode, but I couldn't do that and I believe that's my only chance to get root again to work. If some one could build me a magisk with only core mode enable I would appreciate it so much(flashable zip or just boot.img which is patched). But yeah, still trying to get everything working...:cyclops: (ps. I hope that my english is understandable XD)
hey guys, i just UNINSTALLED magisk from app within and it reboots to bootloop only at just bootloader unlocked yellow page only. But i not able to boot into either recovery or fastboot. Both are not working. What should i do now? Please help me fast.

Edit: Never mind, it finally worked after few tries, thanks.

I used my computer to boot twrp.img then flash twrp.zip
I still don't understand why so many people are using blue spark TWRP..... Nearly all posts in the last few days talking about issues related with twrp were with this one out with outdated versions of mauronaufrio's.
The TWRP to use is latest mauronaufrio's one there is a whole thread about it.
You don't 'flash' twrp in fastboot mode. You temporarily boot the phone with TWRP: 'fastboot boot twrp.img'
And THEN only you flash twrp installer from within this booted twrp.
