All apps think that I don't have enough space after going to stock rom - OnePlus 6T Questions & Answers

After flashing back oxygen os to both slots I can't download all my apps. Putting the phone to download google backup(like apps and such) it fails to install over 40 apps out of 170 and when trying to update apps, playstore says that the app which I'm trying to update needs SD card or other media device with sufficent space while i have over 90gb free. I have also tried to use the unbricking tool with no luck. WhatsApp doesn't want to restore either. I've also tried to download ota file with chrome and chrome says also that I don't have enough space.

Try fastboot
You should try flash again with fastboot-ROM

I had the same problem after make a oos reinstall with a .bat I download, I solved the problem copying all the internal memory to my pc and making a full wipe (internal memory included) and a reinstall via fastboot with the .bat
maybe copy and wipe the internal memory and reinstall the rom can solve the problem, if not I can upload the fastboot unbrick .bat I use to gdrive and you can try a reinstall it is oos pie 9.0.17 but you can always update to oos 10

So, I got it to working with msm-tool. It went back to oos 9.0.16 and then I upgraded to oos 10.3.5, resetted again, and got everything working. But now I think that I got the Indian version or something, because I have red cable club and oneplus cloud there, I live in Finland so obviously they aren't working here. Can I somehow get the international version of oos?

For anybody reading this in the future, this is actually caused by invalid decryption keys. It's possible to have Android boot but not successfully decrypt data. In this state the phone will boot but no applications will install and saving files won't work correctly.
Simply wiping data should fix the issue, but there's always the MSM tool for when things go really wrong.

use fastboot roms to refresh your device and remove data encryptions

International/global same thing. There are twrp flashable OOS that are global for 6t here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-6t/how-to/oneplus-6t-global-repo-oxygen-os-builds-t3865396
Next time you want to roll back to OOS from a custom rom:
Boot twrp
Flash OOS 10.3.5 global from that link
Flash twrp installer zip
Flash finalize zip
Format data (remember this wipes everything)
Reboot system.
You will not have this issue if you install that way.
Then if you want root boot twrp and flash magisk , reboot system.
Also if you ever have to use Msm tool again you can use the last Android 9/pie twrp by mauronofrio. The twrp he compiled just before Android 10/Q twrp started.. You can use that twrp and just flash OOS 10.3.5 global rom after you run Msm tool. That way updating won't take so long. That's what I did and had no issues. Just don't ever downgrade OOS via TWRP or you'll brick.

WiFI doesnt work Show 02:00:00:00:00:00 mac address.

Hello to everybody, the wifi phone of my OP5 woked very well. One day I flashed one ROM, I dont remember what and broked the wifi, now show the typical broken mac address, I saw all the post even fixing nexus wifi phone but didnt work. I lnow that I need to upgrade to Oreo, now Im in Nougat, but the problem is when I flash the oreo stock rom the phone get a bootloop, I tryied everything so I need to forget upgrade. How can resolve this problem. I updated no stock ROM oreo like aiscp but the wifi not repair. I dont know what do. I tried with QPST QXSM but nothing I can repair my phone. Any help?. I tried too modificating all the files about wifi, wifi.bin (I dont remember the names) and didnt worked
If you are using TWRP make sure to update to latest codeworks version and in the wipe section select format data. This is necessary when moving from Nougat to Oreo on the OP5 if you are using a custom recovery. That will erase everything on your phone except TWRP. Plug your phone into a computer and it will show up like a USB drive. Copy and paste the Oreo ROM zip for stock OOS onto your phone. If you want to be rooted also copy the latest Magisk zip. Flash OOS zip within TWRP. If you boot into the system after that you will be 100% stock including recovery. If you want to be rooted and keep TWRP flash Magisk zip as well before booting into system. Given your circumstance I would highly recommend going 100% stock and making sure everything is working right again. You can always install TWRP and root again later.
i remember how i flashed blu spark kernel for custom rom, when i was at stock oos and get this broken wifi. try to look at that

Hi!
Are you trying to install a full OTA zip (1GB+ in file size), or a partial OTA (more around 50 MB - 200 MB) over your current 5.1.2 ROM?
At this point I would suggest you flash a full OTA zip of OOS 5.1.4, either through TWRP or OnePlus' recovery. @Titokhan provides a list of mirrors where you can download full signed flashable zips. Make sure to compare the MD5 signature of your downloaded file with the reference signature inscribed on the download page -- this makes sure your download is not corrupted.

OnePlus enabled Treble on the OP5 around stable release 5.1.5, and release notes for 5.1.5 stressed that the device should be on 5.1.4 before applying the 5.1.5 upgrade. The release notes for 5.1.6 also stressed that the user first upgrade to 5.1.5 before applying the 5.1.6 system upgrade. Based on that information, I would highly suggest you make sure your device works correctly on 5.1.4 first, then 5.1.5, followed by 5.1.6, and only then you upgrade to a later release.

so i flashed version 5.1.3 and it did work but when i tried to flash to version 5.1.4 TWRP was stuck in "Patching system image unconditionally..." did i do something wrong?
After i flashed to 5.1.3 the devices worked normal as always
Here's what I would do:
1. Flash 5.1.3 -- don't re-root, don't flash TWRP.
2. At this point, if you try to boot to recovery, you should have OnePlus' recovery. That's cool, just leave it that way.
3. Boot to system. Allow the system to find newer upgrades, and apply them using the system updater as they come.
4. When you're all updated again to latest release, follow instructions to TWRP and root the device.

You can try to use a VPN(app) which connects to another country to force the update. Or flash it with the stock recovery by downloading the file, place it in .ota folder and update it.

Yes you can, that's what I suggested already
My experience with the 5.1.4 update - ERROR 7 & Treble error fix
Hi, I have 3 OnePlus 5's in my household and I have gotten them all to update to 5.1.4, then 5.1.5, then 5.1.6+ with this method.
(5.1.4 and then 5.1.5 is needed before flashing 5.1.6 or greater).
In my experience, no matter what caches I cleared or what recoveries I had used, 5.1.4 was not flashable on all three devices with the bootloader unlocked. If you have the patience and time, this method should 99.99% work for you if done correctly (leaving a 0.01% chance of failure just in case it does fail lol but that shouldn't happen.)
1.) Firstly, back up your device. I suggest doing this by making a full titanium backup, and copying all the files on the internal storage to a folder on your computer.
This may take a while to copy. In my experience, the fastest way to copy all the data off to the computer is to boot the device into TWRP recovery, plug a good USB C cable in to the device and to the PC's USB port, unlock the device in TWRP (put in the password/pattern to decrypt and mount the data partition [Ignorable if you dont set a password on the device]), and use the adb pull command to pull the files off the device. I found that ADB pull works much faster than an mtp file transfer in windows explorer.
Steps for ADB pull:
Ensure adb is installed on the computer with adb drivers. For Windows, open command prompt or powershell as admin. Type in adb devices and hit enter. If your OnePlus device comes up, then all is good. Use the command (without the square brackets):
[ adb pull /sdcard "XXX/." ]
Replace XXX with a directory on your computer (for example, you can do [ adb pull /sdcard "C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\Desktop\OnePlus/." ]
If anyone notices any issues with this command please let me know so I can update the post. I am writing this off memory, so there may be minor mistakes.
2.) After your device backs up and you're happy with the backup (i.e. everything you need backed-up is saved off of the phone onto the computer), It's time to relock the bootloader and restore the firmware on the phone.
I haven't tried a simple fastboot OEM relock command, so I cannot say whether that is sufficient enough.
What I did was follow this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/how-to/unbrick-tool-oneplus-5-t3648169
Download the Driver and the Oxygen version.
Once downloaded, extract the driver Driver_OnePlus5.zip file to its own folder. Extract the firmware to its own folder (cheeseburger_23_O.13_170803).
3.) Using the firmware restoring tool to relock the bootloader and restore the device to factory firmware condition.
Now:
Turn off your OnePlus 5 device.
Hold volume up key.
Plug USB cable in to the PC and the Type-C side to the device. Make sure only volume up is held whilst you do this.
Open device manager and check for missing drivers/driver issues. If the driver isn't detected, use device manager to browse for the extracted Driver_OnePlus5 folder you made earlier.
The LED light on the OnePlus 5 should be yellow if I can remember correctly.
Open msm download tool as an adminstrator (right click, run as administrator)
Click the start button on the top left of the msm download tool. (If nothing happens, make sure drivers are installed properly and that the device is in download mode [Repeat the above steps])
If successful, one of the "Device Type" should show your device connected {com device} and the download process and time row will update. Wait for the download progress to finish. The device will reboot on its own when completed. The status should turn green and say done/finished (If I remember correctly).
When your device reboots, do a quick setup. Don't bother putting your google account in or restoring anything if you plan on unlocking the bootloader later for TWRP or other reasons.
Unlocking the bootloader will wipe the phone. For now, just focus on the updates.
Connect the device to Wi-Fi. I found one of the devices I used this method on wouldn't connect to Wi-Fi (modem issue or something). Luckily, I had the 5.1.4 update already downloaded on the computer so I copied the update to the root folder on the device and used the local upgrade option in the OTA update options (in the phone system update settings). Updating the firmware fixed my Wi-Fi issue.
Basically, just do the OTA updates as you would normally. Start with 5.1.4, then you can do the 5.1.5. Do not jump to 5.1.7 because OnePlus only just added treble support in 5.14/5.15 releases so it is important do do those in order first. If you can, do 5.1.4, 5.1.5, 5.1.6 and then 5.1.7 in order. Just follow the updates that the OTA screen allows you to take.
Notes for the Pie update:
I haven't had issues installing Pie with the bootloader unlocked, so if you wish to stay on oreo for now and update later with an unlocked bootloader, that should be fine.
If your bootloader is locked, and you're on at least OOS 5.1.5, you should be able to flash the Pie OTA with the stock recovery without issues.
If you encounter issues installing Pie, and your bootloader is unlocked follow this:​
Unlocked bootloader - Pie Update - Removing compatibility.zip from firmware archive:​
Method 1: Pre-Removed compatibility.zip modified firmwares:
For STABLE:​Follow this link:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/how-to/official-oxygenos-4-5-2-7-1-1-ota-t3627003
Download " OxygenOS 9.0.0 Full Zip (modified, without compatibility.zip) ".
For BETA:​Follow this link:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/how-to/official-oxygenos-beta-1-android-oreo-t3710003
Download " OxygenOS Open Beta XX Full Zip (modified, without compatibility.zip) ".
You will need a Pie-compatible recovery. Download a compatible custom Recovery (TWRP) (Also available on https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/how-to/official-oxygenos-beta-1-android-oreo-t3710003 )
Flash a Pie-compatible TWRP and boot into it.
Copy the downloaded " OxygenOS Open Beta XX Full Zip (modified, without compatibility.zip) " to the device.
In TWRP, use: Wipe > Advanced wipe > Select dalvik-cache and cache > Swipe to wipe.
I would recommend taking a nandroid backup before proceeding, if you have any important data on the device.
Flash the downloaded " OxygenOS Open Beta XX Full Zip (modified, without compatibility.zip) ".
Wipe dalvik-cache and cache.
Enjoy Pie.
Method 2: Manual Method to remove compatibility.zip for unlocked bootloaders:
Download the FULL firmware OTA (from device settings, or from the OnePlus website).
Copy the firmware to the computer (If downloaded on the device, it will be in the ".ota" folder. Else, it is available on the OnePlus firmware downloads page.
Open the firmware archive with 7-Zip.
Delete Compatibility.zip from the archive.
Copy the now-modified firmware back to the device.
You will need a Pie-compatible recovery. Download a compatible custom Recovery (TWRP) (Also available on https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/how-to/official-oxygenos-beta-1-android-oreo-t3710003 )
Flash a Pie-compatible TWRP and boot into it.
In TWRP, use: Wipe > Advanced wipe > Select dalvik-cache and cache > Swipe to wipe.
I would recommend taking a nandroid backup before proceeding, if you have any important data on the device.
Flash your manually-modified OTA/firmware archive in TWRP.
Wipe dalvik-cache and cache.
Enjoy Pie.
DO NOT use winrar or any other non-recommended programs to remove compatibility.zip. I found that winrar causes treble errors or error 7.
4.) Re-unlocking the bootloader & Restoring your data.
Once you've installed 5.1.5 or greater, you can now safely go into developer settings and enable oem unlocking, and then reboot to the bootloader to unlock the bootloader (which will wipe/erase the phone data but keep the version to whatever you updated it to). You may then proceed to install TWRP, magisk if you plan on restoring with titaniumbackup, and restore all your sd card contents (or the sd card contents that you need) back from the computer backup the the device (I usually use ADB Push whilst booted in TWRP recovery because it copies quicker than MTP).
Updates should work from now on ( I was able to install android PIE Beta with the bootloader unlocked [See the Pie notes above]. Only had issues with the 5.14 / 5.15 updates with the bootloader unlocked ).
Hope this helps. If anyone has any more information, or questions about this method, do share. Like I said earlier, if done correctly, this method should definitely work for you guys.
Love you Guys:victory:
I did it and it worked first I flashed version 5.1.3 then version 5.1.4 and then I used the updater to upadate directly to version 9.0.0 and it worked :victory:
Thanks a lot and a happy new year

3) Install 5.1.3 and nothing else (You will lose TWRP, but don't worry abut that now)
4) OTA up to 5.1.7
5) If you don't get offered OTA to 9.0.1 use full zip from here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/how-to/official-oxygenos-4-5-2-7-1-1-ota-t3627003
6) Once on OOS 9.0.1 you can use Fastboot to flash latest Codeworkx TWRP: https://sourceforge.net/projects/cheeseburgerdumplings/files/16.0/cheeseburger/recovery/
If you want to install a custom ROM after that:
7) Wipe and Format
8) Install Pie ROM/Gapps etc

Thx for Help dude, but i have a problem.
I backed up my stuff and joined TWRP, after joining TWRP I went to WIPE> Format Data.
After that I passed the file from ROM 5.1.3 to the internal memory of the device and went to install and started the procedure, but doing so returned an error and I would like you to help me if it were possible.
The following message was displayed:
Updater process ended with ERROR: 7

ok, i will re-download the file and try the installation again.
I downloaded it again and tried the installation but again I got the same error when trying to install.
I am doing the download again but this time I will try to download without using download managers, in the previous attempts I used the Internet Download Manager (IDM) to do the downloads, do you recommend some download manager or browser?
I will also download via mobile data on the 4G network.

Okay, thanks, I'll try to download again and I'll come back with the result soon
I downloaded the file from ROM 5.1.3 on the phone and again it returned the same error, I will try one more time.
Please give me your opinion, is there any version of TWRP that is recommended for installation? is it not the version I'm using that might not be reading the file?
Anything else, do I need to install 5.1.3 exactly or can I get a version prior to it?
There's something wrong in the middle of it, but let's keep trying.

Are you on xXx No Limits 4.3 (Nougat - 4.5.14) or xXx No Limits 4.3 Magisk Rom?
If you are talking about the Magisk Rom then we need to know what OOS version you are on to be able to give you the right advise.

I downloaded the file from ROM 5.1.3 on the phone and again it returned the same error, I will try one more time.
Please give me your opinion, is there any version of TWRP that is recommended for installation? is it not the version I'm using that might not be reading the file?
Anything else, do I need to install 5.1.3 exactly or can I get a version prior to it?
There's something wrong in the middle of it, but let's keep trying.

Maybe you can try with this recovery: twrp-3.2.3-0-20181031-codeworkx-cheeseburger.img
And see if it works.
Otherwise I would recommend to download OxygenOS 5.1.4 and try to flash that.

I'm currently in version 4.3 Magisk, I think this can make it easier to find a possible output or end up making it more difficult.

4.3 xXx magisk means you're running a stock oxygenOS where xXx 4.3 mod is running. Do you remember which oxygenOS version it was? 5.1.4 5.1.7 or whatever?

It could make things easier. If your phone still boots into OOS, go into Setting and scroll to the very bottom and select About Phone. Look at what Oxygen OS you are running. What you need to do is get that version all the way up to 5.1.7. Once you are there, you can just flash 9.0.2.

This is the problem, I can not get out of the ROM No Limits to go to another ROM, I've tried some suggestions but still nothing worked, I'm counting on the patience of the members here of the forum to help me with this problem, but I believe that will soon be resolved and thank you all for the help.

Ok, so you're on a patched xXx rom not stock rom with xXx mod. Weird setup
Anyway, did 5.1.4 sucessfully flash without error 7?

I have not tried to install 5.1.4 yet, I was trying to 5.1.3 as it was suggested, I will download version 5.1.4 that is in this repository (https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/how-to/oneplus-5-mirrors-official-oxygen-os-t3628190), and I will try to make the installation clean, ie format all the data, move the ZIP into the internal memory and try to see if it works.
I will try to clarify about the patch in case I try to reinstall ROM No Limits I need to install the full version which is 12.0 and patch 4.3 is just an update patch for the latest version and I can also go back to version 12.0.
Version 5.1.4 I have not yet tested if I can install it without errors, I will do it soon and I will come back with the result.
I think 5.1.4 should do the trick. I would highly recommend you wipe everything including systems, internal and data. This will pretty much give you a blank phone. Connect the phone to your computer and copy over 5.1.4 to the internal storage through TWRP, it should be the only file you see in your sdcard. Flash it and you should be good.

Okay, I'll do the test and I'll come back soon with the result, I'll change the version of TWRP too, this may be the problem.
Bringing the result of a few more tests, I first changed the recovery version, I went to the twrp-3.2.3-0-20181031-codeworkx-cheeseburger.img as suggested and after that I formatted all the data and started to appear a new one Error that was Failed to mount '/ vendor' (Invalid argument), I tried to install the 5.1.3 ROM and also to 5.1.4, which it was indicating was installing but at the end of the installation again I returned the error Failed to mount '/ vendor '(Invalid argument).
After that I reinstalled ROM No Limits 12.0 v. 5.1.3.
Does anyone know how to solve this new error?

Xiaomi Mi 9T Wiped Of All Software And Data Via TWRP But Can't Flash Pixel Experience

I accidentally wiped everything on my device when following a not-so-informative youtube video, it was my own fault for not questioning their steps at all, and I was going to install an update to Pixel Experience as it wasn't letting me do it normally. I have TWRP installed and I can boot into either that or fastboot manually but it won't let me transfer files from my PC onto my Xiaomi Mi 9T via Sideload, Mount, Drag and Drop, MTP is enabled and no other means I can think of work. Everything on my phone is able to be replaced as it was all in the cloud but I need my phone at the moment and from the research I've done I believe this should be a straightforward fix however, since I can't get the software onto my phone I can't boot to it. It also won't let me transfer the firmware required and so I get ERROR: 7 and "This package requires baseband from atleast V12.0.2.0.QFJMIXM. Please upgrade firmware and retry!" My PC recognises the phone is connected and can view the files on it but every time I try to drag anything into it it looks like it's going to work and then it just stops.
If you have any other information you require to assist me I will try to be as helpful as possible however, I am quite new to this so using laymens terms would be preferable.
Did you read the instructions on the pixel experience topic? First you need to flash the firmware package for your device from here: https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/firmware/davinci/
Then flash the rom and format data. This should work.
I installed pixel experience this week and so far it is going well, I had to update from miui 11.0.1.0 android 9 to miui 12.0.3.0 so that ALL the system will be updated to android 10, and then I proceeded to install the pixel experience via twrp. Try to install Miui 11.0.1.0 and configure it, then from the system settings you look for the latest update, make sure the system has been updated to Android 10 before installing pixel experience. Try to use xiaomi flash tool to make a clear install

I have that downloaded and I tried putting it onto my phones internal storage and sideloading it but I couldn't get it to work.

After "Format Data", you need to reboot your phone in TWRP to fix that.

Downgrade/Rollback OOS

Background
I've been doing some testing of installing OTAs (incremental and full) using a test version of TWRP. But, since I keep my phone on the latest version, I needed to firstly rollback to an earlier version so that i could then test upgrading.
Since the only ways I knew of doing this successfully was to use the MSM Tool or the rollback files that were made available during the initial testing of OOS 12, I chose the rollback file.
I then needed to upgrade the phone to get to the correct version for the incremental OTA I wanted to install by updating using a full zip file. Only then could I test installing the incremental OTA.
What didn't work
The above process is rather long and messy (multiple updates to get to the starting point).
I tried installing the full version of my starting point using Local install, but the phone wouldn't boot properly, nor could I swap slots and revert back to the previous version. I ended up having to use the MSM Tool to get my phone working again.
I also tried flashing the full starting point version in TWRP and then tried to format data (which is what the OOS downgrade zip does) but TWRP had errors doing the format. I then tried to format data in fastboot using fastboot -w, but that also failed and I had to use MSM again.
What worked
Since the OOS downgrade zip ends up formatting the phone in the OOS recovery I decided to try that.
So, starting from the current latest version on OOS (F.63) I used TWRP to install the full F.62 zip and then rebooted to recovery.
The phone comes up in the OOS recovery and I selected Format.
Success!
After the format the phone rebooted and came up on a clean install of F.62.
Conclusions
It seems that you can roll back easily to any version you want, provided to can install the target version and boot into recovery.
Note that you should also be able to this process using Orange Fox.
I haven't tried doing this using the OOS Local install, nor have I tried reverting back to an OOS 11 or 12 version. And I don't plan to test these because I've got no need to downgrade to OOS 11 or 12.
Would there be any significant difference if formatting FIRST, and than flashing OOS and than perhaps flashing TWRP rebooting into TWRP and than an additional format if possible?
If it doesn't format the second time maybe it will still boot?
I have no idea. I wrote what did and didn't work for me. Feel free to try something different and share your experience.
