[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jenna.lenna:
I tried to include all info on my setup to see if it helps. I only have the audiofx error and my phone was 100% stock, not rooted, locked bootloader, no custom recovery only what came with the phone and I did not touch nor edit any system files nor themes. Under fastboot mode I get < waiting for device > after putting in the cmd prompts to start.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rbrandser:
That sounds like a problem with the fastboot drivers on your computer, try to install other drivers.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jenna.lenna:
I was just typing fastboot from the adb folder I have. I ran adb_setup.exe file (v.1.4) that I found on this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2588979 and installed it system wide initially. Is there a different one I should have ran instead?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Negan:
What team viewer is, is s program you can install and you give someone a temporary password. This allows them to connect to your PC and control it remotely. Its a great program and app. I use team viewer off my phone often and have actually compiled ROMs on my PC via my phone. Its a handy thing to have when people need help
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Negan:
That should work. You're certain you're in fastboot mode not stock recovery?

Ok go open up a cmd window and type "fastboot devices" and tell me what the output is please
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jenna.lenna:
The phone displays Fastboot Mode with the little icon. When i typed the cmd fastboot devices, no output was received.

Would you want to do the team viewer?

EDIT: Ok definitely a driver issue. I updated the fastboot driver. Went to the cmd fastboot devices and now it returned my device in fastboot :). So to be sure everything goes smoothly, under my adb folder in root I placed the persist and reserve4 files. Am I ready to put in the commands to start erasing and flashing them on?
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Negan:
Yeah give me a bit here. I got home and my wife surprised me by telling me we're going to go look at a puppy! So I'll be a little bit longer now. In the meantime download and install team viewer (for personal use) and send me a pm and I'll give you my hangouts info. Easier to speak there
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Negan:
I just saw your edit. Yes you are ready to flash the persist and reserve4 images.

You can attempt it by following my instructions or you can wait and I can team viewer it if you don't feel comfortable. But it's very simple if you take your time and do it step by step
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jesssiko:
Can you link me another CM file? I dont know why mine is broken.

I am so close and somewhat panicked without my phone :(

Does the team viewer work on a Mac as well? I am guessing so.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jenna.lenna:
I will do that and get ready. Fastboot erase persist failed device not unlocked cannot flash or erase. I didn't think my locked bootloader would be a problem I suppose I'll have to wipe the entire phone anyway? Maybe I'm missing something.. :crying:
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Negan:
Yeah we're gonna have to wipe it I believe. Sucks but I guess its collateral damage. But we'll get the phone working again don't worry

Unknown partition 'presist.img'

I was finally able to get it to cross boot loop to CM boot animation finally.. Erased the persist and reserve4 but tried flashing those gives Unknown error [{"Unknown partition 'presist.img'"} {error: cannot determine image filename for persist.img}]

Same error with the reserve4.. Any help..

Just flashing the stock worked for bypassing the boot loop..

Now audio FX in the way.. WHat am I missing..

---------------------------------------------------------

[[[What i had are detailed bellow>

Used multirom with CM11s internal and mahdi 2nd rom. As none had khex patched karnel I had to swap roms from recovery to boot into.. So last night after CM11s kinda froze and wasn't waking up I did a reboot and after that my phone wasnt booting again from multirom.. Uninstalled it and same issue doing again n again.. then I flashed 33R with manually and also tried with toolkit. No luck with boot loop.. I'm able to access fastboot and recovery.. Tried flashing different rom but still no luck.. But flashing 30O somehow I was see the startup screen and now I have AudioFX issue..]]]

One more thing.. Should we ditch TWRP for now?? Still on dark about what really triggered this issue..

Coz its really frustrating to get this type problems..

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Negan:
I switched from using twrp to philz. Haven't seen any Philz users post here yet
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Negan:
No idea what you're saying
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tdamocles:
Fix his problem by not using twrp. He's got two options left to use, philz or stock cwm.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Negan:
Well as I've stated many times, I suspect twrp might be part of the issue. However I have no proof or anything pointing to it other than all but one user using it. In the end it may be coincidence. One user was stock unrooted so the cause is still unknown
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tdamocles:
I had 2 episodes of missing imei with no bluetooth /Wi-Fi with twrp and none since switching to philz(a good month or so). Be proactive if you don't want troubles. I have twrp on 2 other different devices, just not this one. Just too scary.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antmanfersil:
To the hero of the day:

I had this for two days.

After download and manual flashing the 38r update, problems started to occur. First was a bootloop error similiar to this, but because of the lock screen. I figured it was because of the lock screen theme i flashed before. I reverted it to stock and the error disappeared, but had no wifi, 3g, sim and the worst: sdcard was deleting my files randomly. The recovery also gone after 2 or 3 reboots. I re-flashed 33r, and then this audiofx thing.

I tried everything, factory reset, color os fix, miui, flash color os vol+ to replace audio fx and nothing. Until i found this.

I will share this on the portuguese oneplus fan page, so more people can reach it.

Really, REALLY thank you, i was getting desperate! You know, the minimum wage here in Portugal is around 450 euros (+/- 600 dollars), the oneplus is 300 euros (380 dollars), so you can imagine my frustration. Altough i earn more than that, you can imagine that here, 300 euros is a lot more money than in other countries, because of the cost of money, sort of speak.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Negan:
Good to hear I was able to help you. You completely lost me with the whole minimum wage stuff but that's OK!
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DARKCHYLDX101:
Some reason anything I flash it reboots repeatedly. Tried Color os fix. Partially works. No boot loop also no WiFi. But at least I have a working phone. Still have the same issue if I flash anything afterwards. Going to give this a try tommorow. Sounds like this maybe the answer.

I might have to keep color os. It has a nice camera..lol.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antmanfersil:
LOL!

I was just saying that the price of the onpelus is about 75% of the miminum montlhy wage here, so you get my frustration.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DARKCHYLDX101:
That's crazy. I guess I'm crossing Portugal off the list of places I want to move to. I wouldn't mind visiting though.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] antmanfersil:
Do visit. It's a very VERY beatifull country with paradise-like beaches, in Algarve, 40º in the shadow, and hot sea water in the summer. If you have money it's an excelente place to visit, because for you, it is cheap. That's why most of Algarve's senior residents are retired folks from England and Germany. For them is cheap, not for us, though...

---------- Post added at 05:42 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:37 AM ----------

BTW, anyone else notices that after this fix, the lock on the network is a little bit slower ? Both recognizing the sim at startup and turning on the 3g /lte? Not sure if it is just my imagination. Nothing serious, just a few seconds delay, that's it.

Still better than a 300 bucks brick.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Negan:
Thanks for the travel agent sales pitch! Let's stay on topic here! Most of my threads I at times enjoy some o.t. discussions. But due to the severity of this issue for people I'd like us to stay focused on the fix in this thread. Makes it easier to find stuff for people!

I have another problem which is i dont have 2g reception.This mobile definitely supports 2g and in my area i definitely have full 2g reception..My imei is okay ,no problem with wifi nor bluetooth .Its Chinese version not the international one.İ bought it CM11s installed :Somehow my one is banned 2g reception. I installed many roms,modems ,tried other sim cards from other operators but no success. I played with qpst on system and umts settings and unlock 2g reception then data and 3g were gone.I flashed nonandroid backup and got back to start ,no 2g again. Yes i know it seems that you are doing different thing.But you say persist and reserve images contains modem settings and other stuff , is it possible to solve my problem?What do you think?

I'm relatively new to this so my issue is that after having the constant reboot issue i tried to do a factory reset. It boots to the select language, freeze and reboots constantly. As such i can't get passed the 'TYPE THE FOLLOWING COMMANDS IN YOUR CMD WINDOW:

Any advice/tips to get passed this point and get the device back to normal?

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dgjenkins:
The commands are all done in a command window on your pc, not on the phone. The phone needs to be in fastboot, plugged into the pc. To put the phone in fastboot, power it off and then hold the volume down button and press the power button until you see the fastboot symbol.

Edit: actually it's volume up + power. Sorry, not trying to make this harder on you than it already is... you might want to read through this thread as well to get some basics, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2839471

If you don't already have adb on your computer, you'll need it. There are lots of guides on it if you search.

[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DARKCHYLDX101:
Alot of builds built between 10/06 and 10/10 from various roms have been doing this to devices. I believe it originated from CyanogenMod since most Roms feed off their sources. Just a guess. Been in git reading all the commits and putting the pieces together. I built Nameless on 10/07 flashed it and my device was bricklooping for a few days until I found this thread. Of course the instructions was working until I got to the last step. It wouldn't flash the zip. Something about it being too large. So I combined the Color OS fix with flashing the persist and reserve images and was gtg again.
