If you go to TWRP'S advanced wipe option (TWRP -> wipe -> advanced wipe) and check system, data, cache, dalvik/ART cache (basically all but internal storage) fallowed by flashing OOS it should boot in less than 10 minutes.

Flashing OOS without Magisk/SuperSU/custom kernel will replace TWRP with the stock recovery, thats normal but I don't see a reason why you shouldn't flash OOS & Magisk after you did an advanced wipe...

(You won't lose your data unless you wipe internal storage, TWRP's data refers to App data, not your pictures, music, etc.)

Edit:

If you get errors in TWRP while flashing older OOS you probably need to switch to an older version of TWRP too
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Ex1eXoR:
I know this will help, but im looking for a solution without data wipe, thats why im here, its out of my knowledge. I know what data is and dont want to lose my apps/settings, etc. I also know about app restoring procedure from a google drive(or how it called) backup, but it restores only apps from market:(
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Sam Nakamura:
You can still check if any module of magisk is left by using Magisk manager for recovery from here:

https://xdaforums.com/apps/magisk/module-tool-magisk-manager-recovery-mode-t3693165

This way you can manually delete individual modules you previously installed (that's the goto solution when magisk modules create issues), as Magisk uninstaller gave you errors there're likely leftovers from your Magisk installation (I assume errors where due to an outdated TWRP version?), you might need to flash magisk again to make sure magisk manager for recovery works and to properly delete the magisk installation, it's important to successfully flash the magisk uninstaller to ensure it was completely removed, to make your system boot again...

Also important and interesting information is provided here, this could offer an alternative solution:

If uninstaller finally worked dirty flash ROM you're using and wipe cache/dalvik, if it still won't boot I'd try to delete system in TWRP advanced wipe and dirty flash again, if that's still not working I'm out of ideas but you can / should use the Magisk general support thread, there're some very knowledgeable people, maybe some of them have another idea or different perspective...

[Oneplu 3t] md5 checksum failed:system and recovery failed

My Oneplus 3T(with android 8.0.0) suddenly turn off and it wouldn't boot or other option, i didn't ever rooted, it was new and updated. I tried to go to recovery, tried a hard boot hold the power button for 30s, connected to pc, and giving a charge... it just stayed dead... so i did a find the OnePlus3 Unbrick Tool, did find the phone on the tool and i run... after that it boot in a cycle where appear the 1+ logo and them the md5 checksum with the system and recovery failed[IMG="md5 failed"]https://gyazo.com/439ca1324560a161f6d0db9d2f795c2d[/IMG]

it does that loop, and now i can enter fastboot but can do nothing than going to that cycle and power off

[IMG="device manager"]https://gyazo.com/b8692fad7484bb0066313df14183caad[/IMG]

and using the tool again, goes to a error saying "Sahara Communication Failed£ Please try again after power off phone" and already tried what it said..

please help me, what can i do to boot my devide?

PS: I dont know how to put images on the thread...
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Sam Nakamura:
Sahara communication is a certain protocol the MSM-download-tool uses, it's no longer valid for Oreo (from what I read and understand) and you should try the latest one publicly available, I think it's this here:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1VOPGeruxxz5HwB4f9tfuHWS_gfQ92dbH/view?usp=drivesdk (but you can just check the unbrick thread to verify, a user luckily posted an updated version)

I'm always sceptical when people report sudden bricks without typical modifications like root, custom ROM or kernel, it's usually a hardware issue not a software issue in such cases, the unbrick tool of course cannot fix hardware but it's still worth a try...

Good luck!

[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] smo69:
Can anyone point me in the right direction to update stock OOS w/out bricking my phone like I did months ago? Apparently, the phone has be decrypted via removing the pattern/pin locks prior to upgrading with root and custom recovery, so I just want to make sure I'm doing it right again this time.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] BillGoss:
Stock OOS enforces encryption. So starting with a decrypted phone is not optimal if your going to end up with stock OOS. If your phone isn't encrypted, rebooting on stock OOS will re-encrypt it.

But the answer to your question will depend on what you currenlty have installed (version, root?, format of data partition, encryption) and where you want to end up (version, root?, encryption)

How does one check if the phone is encrypted or not? I've been using my 3t (rooted with Magisk, TWRP recovery) for a year on the old Nougat (4.16 I think) and am considering bringing it current. Trying to make sure I get my ducks in a row first. I'm rusty on this stuff!
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] smo69:
Thanks for the response. According to my settings, it says my phone is encrypted. I'm currently running stock OOS 4.5.1 (Nougat), Magisk Root, System Partition is ext4, Userdata Partition is f2fs. I'm just looking to update to Oreo based OOS w/ Magisk root.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] BillGoss:
Then I suggest you:

-install the latest version of TWRP from https://dl.twrp.me/oneplus3 (it's unified for 3 and 3T) or the Blu Spark v8.61 TWRP from https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-3/oneplus-3--3t-cross-device-development/kernel-t3404970/post67463496

-take a backup of your current setup

-flash the full image of OOS 5.0.1 from https://downloads.oneplus.com/oneplus-3t/oneplus_3t_oxygenos_5.0.1/

-and flash Magisk 16.0 (or 16.4 of that's what you are using) straight after the previous step.

And you're done.

"It will tell you in Settings>Security if your phone is encrypted or not."

Ah, thanks. There it says "Encryption" and under that "Encrypt Phone". I'm afraid to tap that! Does this mean the phone is currently in encrypted, and tapping will encrypt it, or that the phone is currently set to encrypt?

If it is encrypted, under "Encrypt phone" it will say "Encrypted".

---------- Post added at 10:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:56 AM ----------

On the contrary, the phone comes from the factory encrypted by default. So unless you took measures to unencrypt/decrypt it, the phone is encrypted.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Frankenscript:
Thanks.

I went into the "Encrypt Phone" option (figuring it was safe to tap, that there would be warnings before something irreversible happened [emoji3] ) and there was the description that it's possible to encrypt the phone with a button to start it at the bottom, after the warning text about having enough battery to do it etc.

So my phone appears to be not encrypted. I did buy it used a year ago, so either the original owner decrypted it or I did and just forgot about it.

Bootloop animation on completely noob stock 1+3T, need userdata intact!

OnePlus 3T

I'm not skilled at programming, so don't assume I understand even the basics

This is my girlfriend's phone. Reportedly she was just browsing Instagram when it froze, then crashed. Has been stuck in a bootloop ever since.

She's unskilled as well, so no developer's options were enabled prior to the incident. No roots, no TRWP, no way I found to give it adb commands, except for trying adb sideload and it failed, as I will explain succinctly:

1st thing tried was rebooting --->bootloop

Clearing cache through recovery mode ---> gets into recovery mode fine, but the wiping bar got stuck for hours, so I finally decided to turn it off manually

Clearing system data in recovery mode ---> same results

*Won't try factory reset just now because we want to retrieve all the photos and videos if still possible because she needs it for a school project*

Posted my problem in the 1+ reddit, so someone suggested trying safe mode

Tried safe mode (I'm sure I'm pressing the right keys because I got it right in my One+5) ---> no vibration before the animation, bootloop

Same person suggested trying to sideload the original latest ROM (I suppose this is already on the phone since it was fully updated beforehand, still tried it anyway)

I got my adb+fastboot stuff on my own, so maybe I made some mistakes there, maybe not

Then downloaded the official latest ROM [filename:eek:nePlus3TOxygen_28_OTA_062_all_1712272248_d28093577f324959 ; can you confirm?]

Tried sideloading on my own, with the original name and with several renames and the result was always the *cannot read <filename.zip>* error

Followed by hours of troubleshooting, to no avail.

I also read about adb keys from old random forum posts, is there any way my fully functional stock OnePlus5 (with USB debugging enabled) might be used to solve this conundrum?

Last but not least --- odd little additional bugs I get:

In bootloader mode:

RESTART BOOTLOADER - works fine

POWER OFF - works fine

RECOVERY MODE - works fine

START - bootloop

In recovery mode:

Reboot to fastboot, your phone will reboot, confirm - absolute freeze

Reboot to recovery " " " - absolute freeze, same result

Exit->reboot->reboot now - absolute freeze

Exit->Pwr off->*confirm* - absolute freeze

I welcome any insight and a step-by-step would be much appreciated.

If this is not the correct place to discuss this please indicate me somewhere better!

Kind regards,

Tom
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] BillGoss:
Firstly, the file you downloaded is the correct one.

If I remember correctly, a factory reset gives you the option to wipe the internal storage or not. If you don't wipe the internal storage you'll keep photos and files stored on it. So I would try this.

[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] redpoint73:
You/your GF don't need any special skills to know that: if data is important to you,

back it up

. Waiting for a disaster to happen, and trying to recover data after the fact, is not a good strategy, and usually going to fail (especially on an unrooted device).

You aren't going to be able to retrieve data from a stock device, if it doesn't boot. Further, the phone is encrypted by default. It's designed to make it hard to pull the data from it. And even if you did, you would never be able to decrypt it.

adb won't work, if debugging was never activated in Developer Options. Sideload isn't going to work either, for the same reason.

Your best bet is to do as BillGoss said above. Try to see if you can wipe cache/Dalvik, and see if that helps the phone boot.

Doesn't your GF have a Google account set up with the phone? Wouldn't photos be there? Not trying to be harsh, just genuinely confused. Best wishes for finding them somewhere off the phone because it sounds pretty hopeless for the on board storage.

I updated to oxygen OS 5.0.1 and I did this by using official twrp 3.2.1-0 and flashed the new version over my old nougat oxygen is. Now I loaded the indian version 5.0.2 and would like to flash this one because I read there were several bug fixes included in this version.

The problem is, I found several people saying the official version of TWRP isn't compatible with the Oreo version of oxygen OS. Well, I was able to install the new oxygen OS version, I booted into the twrp recovery afterwards and I could read the files/contents of the phone. It seems to work, but is it really safe to use it...?

I really would appreciate if someone could point me in the right direction!
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] BillGoss:
The one clear bug of the official TWRP is that it won't format the data partition from ext4 to f2fs.

Some people also have issues with decrypting the data partition but, to me, it's not at all clear when/why this happens as it may depend on having changed partition format, or decrypting and re-encrypting, or setting an on-boot password using custom ROMs.

In my case, I've never decrypted my phone, so I'm running encrypted f2fs, and I set my on-boot password using OOS.

I've never had any issues whatsoever with the official TWRP. I've flashed custom ROMs, stock OOS, Magisk, custom kernels and never had an issue.

Hi all, I have question regarding upgrading my OP3T from 5.0.1 to 5.0.3.

My OP3T is rooted using magisk and I have TWRP installed.

The system updates says -

"Root is detected, system will begin dowloading the full package. Your device will be un-rooted once the upgrade is completed."

Now my questions are

1. How to install the upgrade (5.0.3) without unrooting it ?

2. As it says it'll un-root my device, does it also mean it'll wipe my data as well ?

EDIT - I read about Dirty flashing the version I want but I can't find 5.0.3 image on Oneplus website.
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Uumas:
If I remember correctly (and nothing has changed since I last used OOS):

1. Flash Magisk again right after it finishes flashing the update

2. No, your data is safe.

[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Sam Nakamura:
The updater downloads the full image, check /sdcard/.ota, it's a hidden folder, you might need something like mixplorer for it to see...

Copy the full image to download folder and flash it via TWRP, make sure to flash magisk right after it (or a custom kernel) to avoid issues (dm-verity), your data is fine with this procedure but a TWRP backup never harms, especially before updating...

My guess is something to do with V4A. Could you uninstall it temporarily and see if it makes a difference?

Also, when the alarm is ringing quietly, try using the volume up button (which brings up the volume slider) and see if the phone shows a low volume selected. This will tell if "something set the alarm volume to be low" or if the problem is "the clock is ringing the alarm loudly, but something downstream is muting it."

Hi Everyone,

While not entirely a noob i like to think i generally know my way around things i thought i'd ask a question here as it could potentially save me some time rather than just testing it.

I have the oneplus 3t, using candyrom, Oreo 8.1 (including kernel) and twrp 3.2.1.0, latest fw and i was wondering weather it is still the case that if i attempted to restore a twrp backup of my rom without removing fingerprint/pin for the lockscreen (before the initial backup) that the phone would mess about and present me with encrypting itself with an unknown password?

Thanks in advance
[OnePlus 3T Questions & Answers] Sam Nakamura:
Encryption is not the same as lockscreen password / pin, the pin/password is just one factor of what makes "encryption", in Android the device is actually always encrypted, even when you didn't set up a boot password, that's forced encryption... Well unless you manipulate stock kernel (or use a custom kernel with optional encryption) and format data, then you can get rid of encryption but I wouldn't recommend it.

Another thing is the lockscreen pattern / password, TWRP simply forgets it after restoring a backup with active lockscreen and locks the user out but this can be solved easily...

I use a flashable zip (from a thread I just couldn't find yet) but you also can manually delete the lockscreen files from /data/system check for lockscreen.db and similar stuff...
