I cannot flash a rom! - OnePlus 8 Pro Questions & Answers

Thank you for reading me, I am desperate, I cannot flash the oxygen os official rom by anyway.
First of all, the situation:
I have the bootloader unlocked, fastboot installed and the drivers running fine (at least that's what I think, when I type "fastboot devices" I get mine back) and I also have TWRP installed and working.
Attempts with fastboot​I have tried with the fastboot image provided by mauronofrio, executing the flash-all script, it said that it was successful but it boots again in the Fastboot Mode.
I have tried flashing it manually but there are some problems while flashing some of the files
Attempt with ADB​ADB Sideload does not work neither
Attempt with twrp​I am not able to send the rom file from my pc by any means...
I have a clue but I don't find the solution...​Something similar has happened to me before, and If I am not wrong I solved it by writing the side a and b, like when installing TWRP (I am not sure 100% by if it rings a bell to someone...)
Thank you for your help

Does anybody have an idea??

Firmware & OTA links!

Your mileage may vary. Please be careful while flashing, and remember chance is always involved when flashing.
I'm not responsible for your mistakes. Take your own precautions; I'm NOT an expert.
Official firmware images can be found here:
Note: As always, ensure you're grabbing the correct image for your device!
https://developer.razer.com/razer-phone-dev-tools/factory-images/
Downloads found here contain a nifty 'flash all.bat' that does all the work for you, so long as you've got your bootloader unlocked & drivers are already working and the likes. I copied my minimal adb directory directly to where the image unzipped to, and opened cmd there.
Pie OTA image:
(it used to be that the Razer site didn't have a pie image. As of 3/21/19 that was fixed.)
Hope this helps!
I had a brick and a bootloop earlier, too. I ended up using the flash-all tool to restore stock Oreo to my device then upgrade to Pie from there. Now to just wait on an extracted boot image

Tried going custom on my OnePlus 8 Pro and now I'm dead in the water

Hello there! I've loved using twrp on several of my devices over the years and tried today on my OP 8P and each version that I have tried lands me with the Qualcomm CrashDummp Mode.
I'm guessing I haven't found the right version. I have been on the latest update from OnePlus. An update today made everything weird, so I decided to go with a custom ROM thru twrp. Now I'm here!
So far I've unlocked my bootloader and tried flashing to both of my partitions.
I've tried:
twrp-3.4.0-2-instantnoodle-unified-mauronofrio
twrp-3.3.1-0-instantnoodle-unified-mauronofrio
340 Oneplus 8 pro mauronofrio
Anything else I can try flashing?

You obviously don't read. It says next to the twrp download that its NOT compatible with Android 11
You gotta read for every ROM installations and every mods
Hi if u want to flash a custom ROM first check what type of ROM u are flashing, whether its Android 11 or 10. If u are flashing Android 10 custom ROM, when ur Oneplus 8 Pro is running Android 10, u can do it by unlocking bootloader and flashing TWRP recovery.
If u have updated ur OnePlus 8 Pro to Android 11, then u cannot flash TWRP as its incompatible. U have to unlock bootloader, install recovery image given in the ROM download page and flash the ROM via abd sideload in the recovery menu.
If ur OnePlus 8 Pro is bricked here is the unbrick tool. Download the ROM and flash it via MSM download tool by going to EDL mode.

Make sure u have the right drivers installed in ur PC.
For going to EDL mode refer this video
Then next thing: Post ur doubts or questions next time in Q&A section. Research well before u start flashing my friend. It ll be easier and smooth.
Take care.
Yep @paarry I was mislead by an article I read that has instructions for twrp be installed on a OP 8P a few months ago. I later realized that I never found anywhere else that said it was possible no matter where I searched, certainly not their official site.
Well, I fixed my problem by ceasing to try any more twrp versions and pivoting to @CarbonROM and so far it's been good.

11.0.8.8 Rooting Issue

I am on the latest 11.0.8.8 EU version. I had patched the boot.img using magisk 23 app, but when i try to flash the patched boot.img using adb fastboot, keep getting "com.android.phone" crashes. Need to flash stock boot.img to get the sim cards working. Any suggestion to get root ?
Remove oos native call recorder module if you have it, if not just remove all modules.

Have you been on my guide mate?? It's all laid out for you..
Don't flash anything, you want to boot first as this is not permanent.
Stable 23 is the correct version..

I am on the stable 23 version. Disabling the native OOS call recording module solved the issue. @gsser Thanks mate.

Ah yes, always disable Magisk modules prior to upgrading firmware.
As they may not be compatible, this is also in the guide.
Glad you're up and running mate
Nice one

Thank you so much!!!! So now in order to root it i should unlock the bootloader, and then patch the IMG i downloaded with the magisk manager app, connect the phone to the PC with USB debugging on, reboot in fastboot mode, and type on the windows command thing this ( the commands in the image attached ):

Yep I've got guides for unlocking the bootloader and rooting in the guides sections.
Both called as such accordingly.
Tbh there are a few guides all should be fine.
Just read through the root guide.
Unlocking the bootloader it's easy.
Code: fastboot OEM unlock
Agree on phone.
Rooting:
Obtain patched image
Fastboot boot Magisk patched
Don't flash it, just wait for boot then open Magisk and click install / direct install.
Again this is all in the guides.

As far as i know there are downgrade packages but they will wipe your data.
I would simply use MSM tool tbh.
I use oxygen updater,are safe? I fear brick or any problem..

if you fear a brick or any problem use MSM tool but you need to backup your phone first beacause it gets wiped.
Like i said if you use a downgrade package your phone will be wiped too. So the safest method is the MSM tool.

Stuck in Fastboot after patched boot.img

Hello everyone, I've been rooting phones for many years and this is my first post asking for help.
The phone was on Android 12 and rooted. I think it was C.16
I tried to do a local update with oxygen updater and then use magisk to install to inactive slot. It updated and booted up however I lost root.
I flashed a patched boot image and now the phone is stuck in fastboot.
My computer recognizes fastboot and I can flash etc. however ADB does not work and the device is not recognized.
I had a spare phone that I tried to replicate the process with and it updated locally, I patched the boot image from magisk and now it is on Android 12 and fully rooted. IN2025_11_C.21
The problem phone currently says the boot image is corrupted but I am able to get it back into fastboot.
I flashed C .11, C.16 and C .21 boot.img.
I used the spare phone to create a patched boot.img and tried flashing with that.
I have tried other patched boot.imgs with various versions from the forum.
I flashed both A and B slots with stock boot.img
When I set to slot B it boots up to a strange state but it blinks a lot and then restarts after a minute or two. I was able to look at the version number and it shows C21 regardless of boot.img. See attached image. I don’t have a keyboard or any other navigation bar. Only icons. No screen lock code at boot.
I'm wondering if maybe it did a system OTA update that I missed and the phone is not on the version I suspected for example C.33 and I don't believe there is a zip file to extract a boot.img from.
If the device is in Fastboot I should be able to reboot if I find the correct boot.img, correct?
If I can update the other phone to C.33 is there a way to extract the boot.img from the device without the full OTA file?
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
There is a c.33 zip for IN2023 which is the EU version.
At least its worth a try.

It is really hard to find a boot image for a rom you think you have installed. Your best bet is MSM back to stock and start over.
