[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] easyrider77:
I'm currently looking at getting either a oneplus one, or a oneplus 3 (not the T variant, just the normal 3) phone (I lean towards the oneplus 3 for it's specs) but have some concerns.

I've been doing a lot of research as far as issues and/or problems that might arise, and am concerned about some oneplus 3 issues I've seen in videos on YouTube and wondered if they still exists have since been fixed and addressed so I will ask here and see what answers I get.

With the oneplus one I didn't seem to come across any major issues, aside from the sim not recognizing, and I am guessing most of that was not in the US but moreso in overseas areas

I did a look at the oneplus one vs the oneplus 3 and saw the oneplus 3 is near twice the speed of that of the oneplus one, plus it has a fingerprint reader, 2gb more of ram and usb-c, and a better camera.

So that got me wanting to get the oneplus 3 instead, but.......if the oneplus 3 has some issues I'd rather not buy into a phone that has issues, as its not covered under any kinda of warranty since one+ has since dropped any support for it.

I have seen the following:

-Screen blank/black out at random times

-Bluetooth issues

-Some videos showing that they have lockups and freezes not being able to pull down notifications, move screens, etc. but can enable and disable flashlight mode just fine.

-silence slider on the opposite side of the power button not working correctly or putting into silent mode and not coming out of silent mode

-Random reboots, more-so than normal.

-something about calling issues, and that rebooting or clearing cache was a possible fix.

I ask here because most of the videos I seem to get hits on are in like june or july of 2016, and it's now nov. of 2017, so that is over a year later, but I just wanted to ask and see what has or has not been addressed and/or fixed so as I make a good purchase and am not stuck with a problem child.

I imagine some if no most of these were/are addressed with an os update and are fixed in the newer os roms, but this is just an assumption on my part.

So I'm curious, has any of this been addressed and/or fixed?

I'd rather buy a phone that was not at specs like the oneplus 3 (IE: oneplus one), and have a phone that works, rather than deal with headaches and have the higher specs, especially as I said there is no warranty and support has been dropped for this phone.

[MENTION=2189617]easyrider77[/MENTION] I'm using OP3 from the start and haven't experienced any of those problems, especially on the stock stable ROM. Some of those problems are possible if you experiment too much and flash random stuff without reading. Besides that, this is a good working and stable phone.

Please help. I'm updating from open beta 24 to the latest one. (yeah I'm late but that's not the issue).

Hello, using stock rom, just updated to Oreo. The quick settings behavior seems to have changed in the meantime or I am imagining things? On a marshmallow device I can still see the down arrow underneath wifi/bt/etc icons that present some more quick settings. That no longer shows on my op3. Is there a way to get it back? Thanks

installing Miui

So I just got my OP3 after having spent the last 2 years with Apple.

I just got the oreo update but I want to try out Miui. So my question is, since most stable builds are based on android marshmallow, if I root and install TWRP, will I be able to directly flash the rom or do I need to downgrade to mm first?

sorry for the noob question and thanks for your help!
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] JohnsNotHome:
Just unlock the boot loader, and then flash twrp. Get the ROM you wanna try and then flash it. It's that simple. Don't forget to make a back up just in case.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Anghirrim:
So whatever MM/N/O rom will work just fine, even if firmware/modem are the one from OOS 5? No compatibility issues?

I'm already on rooted stock OOS 5 Stable with blu_spark twrp 8.54.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] TNSMANI:
No, it will depend on the ROM you flash. If it has firmware built-in, then there may not be an issue. Otherwise, you will have to flash compatible firmware.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Anghirrim:
Ok thanks. At worst, it will just not boot right?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] TNSMANI:
No guarantees like that.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Anghirrim:
Anything I can't solve by flashing a nandroid backup or a stock OOS rom zip?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] TNSMANI:
Shouldn't be an issue. Worse comes to worst, you have the unbrick tool. The OP3 is practically unbrickable.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Anghirrim:
Which unbrick tool by the way? Because there are several toolboxes and other qualcomm threads... Thanks
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] cancerouschris:
Hi, guys.

I recently updated my OP3 to Android Oreo and have found that, when in silent mode, any media I'm playing lowers in volume for a couple seconds when I receive a notification. It happens in all apps (YouTube, Black Player, Audible, etc) and only started happening since the latest update.

It's really annoying!

Does anyone have any ideas as to how to fix it?

Thanks! :svetius:

Chris.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Anghirrim:
I've read that do not disturb mode do the trick.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] cancerouschris:
That seems to have worked. Thanks! No idea why it's not been implemented like in 7.0.

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] TNSMANI:
If restarting, clearing cache and Dalvic cache etc don't solve the issue, clean flash the ROM.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] easyrider77:
Just bought a oneplus 3 tonight. Am lookign forward to upgrading from my nexus 5x. Not that the 5x is a problem as it still works, just dated is all, and will provide a very nice backup if anything happens.

I've seem rooting process which seem pretty straight forward and a lot like the nexus devices in root process, oem unlock, flash recovery twrp.img, install rom+gapps, reboot etc..etc...

At some rare times I found myself for whatever reason having to go back to complete stock, ie: stock firmware and such, not rooted. So I have the stock firmware os file already, and have watched a few video on how to go back to stock. Is it as easy as flashing the stock file in twrp, and that's it, like the videos are showing?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Anghirrim:
Hi,

First, is the bootloader unlocked and do you have TWRP installed?

Then, which version of stock OOS do yoy want to flash?

And is your phone encrypted?

To go back 100% stock, yes you can flash the stock zip. It's as simple as this. And appart from unlocking your bootliader and flashing twrp, you will never need fastboot.

But there are side advices about dl-verity flag and force encryption depending on the OOS version you are on actually and which version you wanna flash.

PS: I was in the same boat last week. Freshly coming to OP3 after my OP One died. And the OP One behaves like nexus phones.

I've seen some say magisk does not work on the op3, but it seems to be a mix of things, but mostly people are using superSU.

So does magisk work for root on the op3, or will I need to use superSU?
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] TNSMANI:
Magisk does work on the OP3. I had it for sometime then switched back to SuperSU since I had no use for Magisk's additional functionalities.

stuck on bootloader

i successfully installed twrp and unlocked the device, then made a back up. after that i flashed superSU and wiped dalvik and cache. but i forgot to go in and disable dm_verity. of course, i got stuck on the android startup screen. i though i could go back and erase, and flash the back up, but something happened. i must have accidently erased the user data or something, but now im stuck on fastboot mode. if i press the power button it goes to the fastboot mode. if i press volume up + power goes to the same mode and exactly the same with volume down + power. ive tried reflashing and wiping from the one in all tool and the toolkit by Neisor, relocking/ unlocking bootloader and just about anything i can think of. i finally understood that im missing a path. no matter what i try, it says im missing some type of path. just for ****s and giggles i tried installing a stock rom of oxygen on command and this is what i received:

[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Anghirrim:
Did you try to fastboot flash the stock recovery or one of the latest TWRP, then boot it?

Go for the basics first before messing up with whatever all in one tool you found.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Cjeske69:
Yes. I tried flashing the stock recovery. it says the flash is successful, brings up the android startup logo, then shuts off. no matter what i try to flash, or push, it eventually says: " the system cannot find the path specified"
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Anghirrim:
Try to "fastboot boot" the recovery.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Cjeske69:
Says device not found. I tried installing any and all drivers, I even tried to install the quallcom driver and restarted my desktop. But its not recognizing my op3. No matter what, it always reverts back to the bootloader.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Anghirrim:
How did you manage to flash the recovery before if your fastboot does not find your device?

If it really does not work, go to the unbrick thread. They'll help you.

Hello all,

I'm searching for a method to hide my (SU) root on my stock Oreo Oneplus 3. I do understand that Magisk is the only way to do so. Is this correct? Also, do I lose my data when I move to Magisk?

Many thanks for reading my message!
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] dugi9991:
Yes, Magisk does if system-less. You won't lose data.

You are using stock with superSU? There are some posts/threads related to swapping from one to another.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] easyrider77:
To my understanding, and the way I've done it on a couple of phones is in simple terms, unroot, then flash magisk.

A bit more in depth:

(the obvious) download magisk.zip latest, 14.0 is stable, and I'd suggest that as apposed to 14.1, 14.2 etc....as those are all beta, but I've heard they work fine. I just choose to use stable. Also download magisk manager apk, you'll need that as well. Copy both those files to your internal of the phone.

-Go into the superSU app, and scroll down you should see a full unroot. Check that

Its been awhile since I've used superSU, so I'm not sure, but I think it then asks to reboot if I recall correctly.

-Once done, reboot to system. You should then notice no root access, or superSU anymore.

-Now reboot to twrp

-go to install

-select the zip file you downloaded

-slide the bar at the bottom to accept the flash

-for safe measure, clear dalvik and caches

-reboot system

(NOTE: don't open magisk yet, you need to install the newer magisk manager apk file)

-Install magisk manager apk

-Now open magisk and you should be rooted.

Simple and painless.

On a side note, no you won't wipe or lose data, the only way you do that is if you unlock/lock the bootloader, and use wipe in twrp. Aside from that you should not lose any data.

Hi. Im asking here to try and get a response in the best place

Ive recently bought a Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo and tried to update the firmware to a recent release from SamMobile with Odin - ive done this only a few times before , so im only slightly familiar with the process

The firmware was the Austria 6.0.1 firmware - which didnt work , but then i tried the UK EE 6.0.1 firmware - and that didnt work either

For the Austria firmware , it was seeming to work , updating with Odin fine , then at the very last moment (during the last few sections of data to update) it stopped and said "FAIL" with a red square near the top of the Odin window , and it said that a thread of data did not update

For the UK EE firmware , it failed almost immediately with the "FAIL" red square again , and it said that a thread of data did not update

Now on my phone , theres a blue screen , with a white tringle and exclamation mark on it , saying i need to use Smart Switch to do an "Emergency Recovery" there - but that didnt work either

Any ideas how to help?

Thanks

An Update To The Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo Problem - Problem fixed

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

After trying to update the firmware with a more recent release of Android 6.0.1 (to try and get the latest that's possible) , ive found that the Austria 6.0.1 release and the UK EE 6.0.1 release for my phone , cant be used

Ive managed successfully to flash the UK BTU 6.0.1 release (unbranded version)

This could mean that on Samsung phones , you must stick to the exact region or exact firmware release for your phone's region and even service provider - may be down-dating or updating the release version , but always with the same region and service provider.

This might be new to Samsung , as in the past , it was possible to switch between different countries for their release of firmware - which could be a new limit Samsung have decided to put on their phones , on the ability to change your phone's region

Glad to hear that (the edit, I mean). No one to my knowledge has reported any issue on flashing that zip. Your issue could not have been caused by it. Check which TWRP you are running.

I've always used Cerberus but due to the system permission changes in android 8.0 I would like to install it as a system app.

If I understood correctly the only way to do it is by having root, so I found out that Magisk seems the best way to alter less the phone.

I don't want\need TWRP or other recoveries so I found this guide which says:

Is it a safe process? I would like to tamper the phone as less as possibile.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] TNSMANI:
Did you read fully what you linked? Or atleast watched the video in the link fully?

You either have not done so or you have completely missed the main points. You need TWRP and root as per the link. Read it again.
[OnePlus 3 Questions & Answers] Maxiride:
Oh fml, I'm sorry.

So if I understand correctly I can follow the steps mentioned here but instead of flashing supersu I should flash magisk?

Thanks for the noob proof patience XD

Edit:

On the TWRP installation page there is a Root way to install TWRP, but if ones first needs TWRP itself to root the phone what's the point of offering such installation method? I think I'm missing something more.

Furthermore the OP3 recovery has an "install from internal storage" menu entry so am I wrong in thinking that I don't need TWRP to flash stuff?

OP3 rooted mess

Hey guys, I recently purchased a OP3 on ebay. I noticed they had messed around with custom roms and the bootloader. Wanted to return it to stock but I cant seem to do that. Ive followed most guides on here but everything leaves me either at a bootloop or without a recovery. I have only been able to succesfully flash TWRP recovery and stock recovery once. However after flashing stock recovery and sideloading stock OS, I wasnt able to boot back into stock recovery nor into the OS. Only way I can get a recovery is if I flash TWRP. Also, any OS crashes. I have tried Lineage, SUltans, a ton of different version of the stock OS. Not sure what to do at this point. I also noticed that the phone was running Android 6 when I first got it. I heard stock recovery for MM is different from other recoveries. Thanks in advance guys

I have a oneplus 3, so I decided to leave my question here, so it kinda pertains, but kinda not to oneplus 3.

That being said I'm somewhat a veteran of rooting and such, and not new to the process, but I have not used a nandroid in a very long time until lately, so my question is about a nandroid, just to learn a bit.

1: Restoring a nandroid, do you need to wipe stuff or can you just directly restore the backup and it will do all the wipe/format in that process. I am always doing a clean fresh install, so I'm very used to wiping data and such, but not sure on nandroids.

2: Can you hop back and forth with nandroids and android versions and be ok without any issues?......ie: in this scenario (this is just a scenario not a real thing for the sake of asking and answering to keep things simple) we'll use android 6 (marshmallow), and android 8 (oreo). If I say upgraded to oreo, then had issues for some reason, decided to go back to my nandroid of marshmallow, will there be issues......or vice versa from marshmallow up to oreo? In the scenario you can pick any android versions you want, I just chose those two.
