So notoriously difficult means it wont be possible anytime soon or just never?

I did find on the oneplus forums a osx toolkit but this dates back to the oneplus one.

(google: root oneplus on mac osx)

So I'm not sure this will work seeing that the last post in that thread is from january.

I just realised I have parallels on my mac so I could boot windows in there.

This should solve my problems or not really?

I had to rename the twrp-2.8.7.0-onyx_f2fs_r4.img file to recovery.img to make it work for me...

I was using the first version of this recovery at the time but maybe it might help you.

I have flashed subsequent versions since then using Flashify, no problem.
[OnePlus X General] joho5:
When you unlocked your bootloader, did you have Chinese text confirming? Or in English?
[OnePlus X General] topp10:
I can't honestly remember. Must have been English though, I would've remembered if it was Chinese!
[OnePlus X General] ekephant:
Hi everyone. Just wanted to chime in. This is my first time posting, and I'm fairly new to rooting/flashing. I have since successfully rooted and installed CM12 on my HTC One M7, so I do have some prior experience. I read all of the threads involving rooting the OPX, and want to share my story as well:

Anyway, I received my OPX about a week ago and decided to try rooting it last night. It came with OxygenOS 2.1.2 and I have not had been prompted to OTA update since I received it. I have the US version (E1005), and when I unlocked the bootloader, I was prompted by a screen that I believe was in Chinese. I selected the first option and it seemed to work, as it then proceeded to prompt me with the Welcome and Setup screen as if it was the first time I turned on the phone. I then re-enabled developer mode in order to re-enable USB debugging, and proceeded to attempt flashing TWRP. The "fastboot flash recovery xxx.img" command worked; however, as with many others, I received a dtb error after the "fastboot boot xxx.img" command. I tried 3 different versions of TWRP (twrp-2.8.7.0-onyx, twrp-2.8.7.0-onyx_f2fs_r2, and twrp-2.8.7.0-onyx_f2fs_r4) , and all had the same result. Booting to recovery from the advanced reboot menu takes me to the stock recovery. Consistent with others using the E1005 model, when using command "fastboot oem device-info", it shows "tampered: false" and "unlocked: true".

I'm reluctant to root using Kingo Root because I want to be able to flash Xposed as well. Hopefully this was insightful. Please let me know if there's any other info I can provide to help get TWRP working on all E1005 devices.

[OnePlus X General] No-New-Phone:
I don't have a mac, but if you could install adb and fastboot, you should be able to do anything you need for rooting the phone.

https://youtu.be/qhYnHsmuJfo

There's a way to do that, but there's many more guides. Just check the adb version you're using, as lollipop needs an actual version.
[OnePlus X General] supersonictt:
Hello all,

I successfully unlocked the bootloader using the guide, and I was able to flash twrp.

Now I noticed that in the command:

fastboot oem devide-info

unlocked:false

I don't know what exactly happened, but how can I re unlock it?!! I am not able to flash twrp_r4 by eng.stk recovery.

Do I need to flash the stock recovery, lock the bootloader and unlock it again?
[OnePlus X General] the Doctor:
[MENTION=3545090]supersonictt[/MENTION], this seems to be an issue with particular devices. Take a look at the thread I linked in post #153 above.
[OnePlus X General] supersonictt:
Thanks for the reply :)

Anyways my phone is E1003, and I was able to unlock it, flashed twrp by eng.stk, installed OTA patches, and even updated twrp_r2 to twrp_r4 using flashify.

Earlier today I was using twrp and when I entered it, it showed me something about either Read Only or Allow modifications, I choose Allow modifications (I don't know if it is the issue)

Then after updating to 2.1.3 using OTA patches, I reverted back 2.1.2 using the nandroid I backed up. Then I decided to flash 2.1.3 Full ROM, so I did a clean wipe, and after installing the ROM and rebooting, just after "Finishing boot", a message abot "Encryption Unsuccessful" appeared, and the only thing I could do is to reboot into recovery and restore the 2.1.2. The same is happening with 2.1.2 Full ROM which didn't happen before!

My data and cache partitions are formatted to f2fs.

I am really confused now!

Any clues?!

-----EDIT-----

Ok, I formatted Data and Cache to ext4, now I was able to install 2.1.2 Full ROM.

Now the only issue, how can I re unlock the bootloader?

Thanks guys :)
[OnePlus X General] A_youu:
I noticed same thing when I do fastboot oem device-info. It reads Device unlocked: False. So, I went in Settings >> Developer Options >> and noticed that my OEM unlocking was off. If I turn it back "On" and go back in fastboot and try fastboot oem device-info (now it reads Device unlocked: true).

So, may be you need to check under Developer options.

Thanks
[OnePlus X General] supersonictt:
Thank you for replying :)

Well, I read about this thing a few days ago in OnePlus forum so I kept it in mind.

No matter what my OEM unlocking option is in Developer options, it always reads false!

Confusing!!

---------- Post added at 12:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:06 AM ----------

Ok, solved :)

I used rashr to flash stock recovery, then booted to bootloader and:

fastboot oem unlock

and it went through the whole process again :)

Thanks for everyone tried to help

Hi, I wonder if anyone can help me with this but here I go:

I rooted my oneplus x following this guide, without flashing twrp, just booting it, I made a backup with twrp, but later I did a factory reset and it looks like my backup is gone, now a Ota it's available and I can't go back.

Is there any way to flash stock again?

Thank you in advance and sorry for my English

Phone doesnt start

Hey guys, I have a big problem and hope, that you can help me. I rooted my Phone with Kingroot, I wanted to use Titanium Backup. After that, I read that this app isn´t so good, so I pressed the Buttom to deinstall the app and unroot it.

After that, my Phone rebooted, but it doenst start. I see the Bootanimation all the time.

I tried to format and wipe everythink, but it doenst work. I tried to install a new recovery, but I doenst work either, cause I unrotted it before. I tried to root it again, even that doenst work, because I need to turn on "oem unlock" in the developer options.

I am really sad, I cant do anything right now.

Can anyone help me please?

I that about flashing the Stock Rom, I heard that this is possible, even without unlock the Bootloader, but I think that will not work. It is possible, that the app delete some importent folders?
[OnePlus X General] CamoGeko:
It's possible to flash stock rom, just do that but make sure you wipe all partitions in recovery. Data, system, cache etc

:/

3 Commands to install adb on mac osx(El capitan). No ADB/Fastboot drivers required.

ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
brew install android-platform-tools
adb devices

It can't get any simpler!
[OnePlus X General] elflois:
So the steps would be, boot twrp(without flashing) and install the zip you mentioned, or should I have to wipe any partitions, factory reset or something.

I´m quite new in this matter and I wouldn't like to mess up with the phone :) thank you in advance
[OnePlus X General] No-New-Phone:
A factory reset is not necessary, but I'd recommend a wipe of cache and dalvik /art.

Then make a backup of system.

Then you can install su and other mods, like xposed for example.

Thank you OP

[IMG="Root Checker"]http://fs5.directupload.net/images/151209/qlhg2gaw.png[/IMG]
[OnePlus X General] No-New-Phone:
This depends on your bootloader. If it's unlocked, then you don't have any problems at all, as rooting by itself doesn't result in a factory reset.

If it's locked, you should backup your data using adb, then unlock the bootloader, then restore the data. This should do the trick.

---------- Post added at 10:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:58 PM ----------

Btw, look at

for the adb backup guide. It works well.
[OnePlus X General] charliebigpot:
Duuude, make time to read all instructions before you start, lots of it is just to make the process smoother. Also, you'll learn some useful stuff if you follow the instructions instead of just rooting with kingsroot.
[OnePlus X General] the Doctor:
Rooting doesn't cause you to lose data. Unlocking your bootloader causes you to lose data because it forces a factory reset. If you have any desire to do any serious flashing in the future, unlock the bootloader and get it over with. Then you can flash TWRP, set up the phone, and do backups so you don't have to lose your data in the future.

hanging in fastboot!

Ok so i followed this guide and it worked originally. I then flashed the OTA updates which unrooted and put me back on stock recovery. Now i'm trying to reflash twrp through fastboot. everything looks fine on my pc i get the following:

fastboot boot recovery.img

downloading 'boot.img'...

OKAY [ 0.578s]

booting...

OKAY [ 0.015s]

finished. total time: 0.592s

But the phone just hangs in fastboot mode.. you try the command again and it says <waiting for device>. the same happens when trying to flash twrp too..

OEM is still unlocked. am i missing something?

using ubuntu to do this if that makes a difference..
[OnePlus X General] No-New-Phone:
I made the same experience. Reboot the phone, reboot Ubuntu, connect the phone and try it again. Make sure that adb sees the phone, and that fastboot devices shows the phone as well. I have no clue why, but at the second try it worked for me.
[OnePlus X General] pookiethebear:
nope, despite showing in adb and fastboot, still doing the same :(

Hello please help me

I have you the HTC One M7 802W Dual Sim in Greece,

Now I have a really big problem I tried to use a keyboard motive on my phone (lollipop 5.0.2) without knowing that I could not uninstall it later, as in lollipop 5.0.2 it cannot be uninstalled for safety reasons. So as I did not want to have the motive anymore I did a recovery on the mobile’s data to an older back up that I had saved. The recovery was completed normally, but while the mobile restarts normally it does not operate properly. It can only open on the first screen stage with the logo of China Unicom (w) after a while this screen page closes by itself and the phone opens again at recovery mode all by itself. I have tried to make a factory reset on the mobile many times,I have tried to instal ather rom's (maximus 3.0) and athers, and every single time it says that the operation was completed successfully, but when the phone restarts I still have the same problem.

(It can only open on the first screen stage with the logo of China Unicom (w) after a while this screen page closes by itself and the phone opens again at recovery mode all by itself.) .

Please help me if you can? I live in Greece and the distance from China is really big,for send it back. Do you have any idea or maybe even a guide on how to solve this problem?

Just install Xposed Framework from

http://xdaforums.com/xposed/unofficial-xposed-samsung-lollipop-t3180960

and after flashing the xposed build you must install the "Force 3 dots menu" modul by using the xposed installer app.

Afterwards you have access again to the firefox configuration menu and curiously enough the menubutton also works inside these and some other apps like lecture notes.;)

[HTC One A9] hayame:
I was wondering if it would be possible to disable on-screen buttons and have the fingerprint sensor used (and remapped) for home and multitask (double tap/long hold gesture), whether it be by kernel or custom rom.

On-screen buttons is probably the only thing that kept me from upgrading to m8/m9 and other phones like nexus 5 from my m7 and I would like to know if it would be possible.
[HTC One A9] jokies:
The fingerprint sensor can double as home in settings without any modification.

But if you'll need back and multitask, I doubt this single button can do so much.

Would you like to try LMT launcher? You may be able to disable on screen button by simple tweak and use LMT swipe PIE and gesture instead.
[HTC One A9] Cj719:
I have on screen buttons to hide and I use LMT
[HTC One A9] hayame:
I figured that since most apps have a back button (within the app itself) that the fingerprint sensor could be mapped for both short and long pressed, a short press for home and a long press/hold for multitasking/appswitch (or even double tap for multitasking/appswitch like I have on my m7 home button).

I have tried LMT/PIE gestures on the nexus 5 and it felt too bothersome in my opinion, though I also think that on the a9 it will be a little bit more tolerable if I have to use it for back/multitasking

Does LMT interfere wirh the original and intended functions of the fingerprint sensor at all?
