I don't think even the unbrick tool would revert the vendor partition since it was created in an unused partition.

Like you said though, it doesn't really matter because older OOS ROMs would just use the system/vendor partition like before.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] shadowstep:
Oh, it was? So it was just unformatted space before? Because if that's the case, then you're right, it won't nuke it. If, however, an existing formatted partition was utilized and converted to the vendor partition, then it might, because the tool restores the stock Nougat partition layout as far as I know. Either way, doesn't matter really, yes. :)

Cheers, thanks. Ended up using a 5.13 and then walking my way back up to current releases. I think it was the Treble update that was causing the error 7.

I'm on Pie latest OB and was just trying to flash back a stock recovery and realized that:

1/ OP website mentions two different recovery (with different md5) but they point to the same file. The OB one is incorrect. The Stable one is the 8.1 mentionned here

2/ That one, 8.1, does not start here, it just shows a black screen. Or is anyone able to fastboot boot recovery.img ? Treble incompatibility?

3/ On the other side, 7.1.1 referenced here (but not anymore on their website), does work :D

A bit messy from OP...

5.1.7 isn't the latest version, 9.0.3 is - hence the update notification.

I used Bluspark 9.85 on Oreo, and Bluspark 9.91 on Pie.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] radx:
I'm trying to upgrade my op5t to the latest release with android pie. OnePlus5TOxygen_43_OTA_046_all_1901182151_3ac9c.zip.

My current recovery is twrp-3.1.1-x_blu_spark_v8.55-op5_op5t.img which gave me errors when I tried to flash the above file.

So I downloaded twrp-3.2.3-0-20181227-codeworkx-nocompatcheck-dumpling.img but when I try to load recovery after flashing it through the bootloader it gives me a black screen and never gets pass that.

I also tried twrp-3.2.3-0-20181215-codeworkx-dumpling.img but that gives me a black screen as well.

Any help on how to flash the latest release and what recovery to use that actually loads up without hanging? Thanks guys! :)

Edit: I know that bluspark is available as a kernel these days. But I prefer to stay with stock kernel. Just want a custom recovery that works.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] tcat007:
What room version are you on? I you checking the box to install to recovery partition?

Try Bluspark 9.85. I think you need to be on 5.17 before updating to pie.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] radx:
I'm currently on 5.17. Where do I find the box to install recovery partitions? That's news to me. Thanks :)
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] tcat007:
I thought said you were using an older TWRP, so I assumed you could install image file with TWRP. If not, you probably need a computer and use fastboot, that's how I did it first time. Once on TWRP you can install pretty much anything.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] konman21:
I see ver9. 91 bluspark listed as this?

twrp-3.2.3-x_blu_spark_v9.91_treble

Is this the correct one
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] tcat007:
You can use that if on pie. You need 9.85 on Oreo, and you need to remove compatability zip from ROM (can use MixPlorer, or find the rom with that zip removed).
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] radx:
Sorry if i'm not clear. I'm currently on 5.17 and I've got TWRP installed already. Now I'm trying to upgrade to 046_all_1901182151. That is I'm trying to upgrade from Android 8.x to Android 9.x. But when I try to flash the pie image my current TWRP gives me weird errors. So I googled and noticed I needed a newer TWRP in order to flash the new pie image. This is where I got stuck. I cant install the new TWRP because when I do I end up with a black screen, unable to get inside the recovery.

Any suggestion on how to get it installed?

Thanks :)
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] tcat007:
Not sure what to suggest other than try BS 9.85. Flash image in recovery (once you pick image you get a window to select which partition, check "recovery"). Once flashed, hit back and reboot back to recovery first. See if new recovery appears. It good, install ROM with compatability zip removed.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] radx:
Thanks for your suggestions. I tried BS 9.85. I rebooted and entered recovery. It got installed fine.

Then I tried to flash the zip with pie. It failed and said:

[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] tcat007:
Usually that means you have the wrong zip for your device, but looks like you have the correct 5t zip. Try clicking on your zip to make sure it opens, and compatability zip is gone. Try again, clear cache first then flash. Do you have an old magisk installed?
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] radx:
Thanks again my man for your efforts. :)

Magisk is installed. My version is v6.1.0 (165). Not sure if that is old though. But I haven't updated it in a long time so perhaps.

Other than that, yes the zip is fine. I tested it for errors on my PC. I downloaded it directly from Oneplus. So Maybe Magisk is the culprit here?
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] tcat007:
That looks like magisk manager. What version of magisk does that say you have. If latest should say 18.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] radx:
Ah, yes, it says 18 like in your screenshot.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] tcat007:
Sounds like you have what I have. Only last thought is to clear cache, data, system, vendor, in TWRP, then flash ROM. Make sure you back up data. This won't delete internal (don't check that box). Flash back into TWRP before to system. Then flash magisk 18. See what happens.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] radx:
I managed to get it sorted. What I did to make it work:

1. Dirty Flash version 5.17 over the current modified and rooted 5.17. For some reason system image wasn't restored to default here. My root and erased youtube APK was still missing from system partition But it helped me get the stock recovery back installed..

2. Flash the official OTA Pie release.

3. OTA succeeded to install when flashing with stock recovery

So here we are. Finally onboard with pie. :)

[MENTION=4158306]tcat007[/MENTION] despite OnePlus writing "adding support for project Treble" in 5.1.6/7 changelog Treble support was already present in 5.1.5 (see ro.treble.enabled in build.prop)
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Spannaa:
In fact, treble preparation started with 5.1.4 and then the actual partition change from the unused sdf6 partition to vendor for treble happened in 5.1.5.

If users on 5.1.3 or earlier flash 5.1.4 and then 5.1.5, they should be able to update to any OOS pie stable rom (9.0.x) without issues, but they'll need to upgrade to a treble enabled version of TWRP too.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Some_Random_Username:
Exactly. That's why no incremental package for 5.1.4 was offered by OTA system.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] rchtk:
That's not what I was talking about, I'm talking about standalone recovery images.

And, while the recovery is included in the ROM, TWRP will remove the recovery copy mechanism when it reboots (as long as verity is disabled).

[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Adam3Sixty:
Right guys, need a quick bit of help:

Right now I'm on OxygenOS 5.1.7 and I'm thinking about updating to the newest Pie ROM.

I've seen on my phone it's up to 9.0.3 now, so, can I go to that one, by flashing the full rom download, or do i need to start with lower versions then work up to 9.0.3?

I'm not a noob, I know about updating, I just wanted to ask that little bit of advice.

Thanx in advance.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] tcat007:
I believe you can flash it directly, but you need to be on a previous TWRP (like Bluspark 9.85), and remove compatability zip from ROM. Then you can flash any future full ROMs with TWRP 9.91.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Adam3Sixty:
Right now I am on TWRP Official 3.2.1-2, and I have seen there is an update to Official 3.2.3-1, but I am not aware of Bluspark or the other numbers u r refering to.

Everything works fine for me on this version of TWRP up to now.

Also, what is compatibility zip from ROM? Is that a check box when flashing?

I haven't updated since the last stable OOS was released, lol.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] tcat007:
You need to read some the posts in the oos thread,

https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-5t/how-to/official-oxygenos-4-7-2-7-1-1-ota-t3709265/post74612834

If you open the 9.0.3 zip, there's a compatability zip inside that needs to be removed if you're in oreo using TWRP. There are zips around with it removed, or you can use MixPlorer to remove it yourself. The Bluspark zips are in that thread (and I think in the OP of the link above).
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Adam3Sixty:
So basically, remove the zip file, flash everything, then use a non official twrp afterwards?
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] tcat007:
Once you're on Pie, you can flash Bluspark 9.91 TWRP (without removing that zip). I don't think I've ever used "official" TWRP.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] benny3:
Just install Blusparks 9.xx recovery and you're good to flash Pie

More info please.

Is your phone encrypted or pin only.

Has your phone one successful boot after dirty flash from Oreo to Pie?

Flash twrp via USB and adb tools (Windows cmd):

After connect your phone with working drivers type from the adb tools folder..

fastboot.exe flash recovery twrp-3.3.1-x_blu_spark_v9.101_treble-op5_op5t. img

Then try to boot into recovery with power on + Volume down

I prefer a clean flash for you with pie! Or try to fix and wait for a clean flash with Android 10 next month!

[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] archz2:
My phone is currently booting in fastboot. Even choosing the option of "start" in fastboot, makes my phone boot in fastboot only. Upon flashing latest TWRP blusparks, then booting into recovery, password is not being accepted by TWRP, neither my original password (i.e. the 4 pin digit that I used to unlock my phone after the first boot) , nor the "default_password" . To the best of my knowledge, the ADB command for copying data can be only run through in TWRP. I cannot make use of TWRP due to password issue.
[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] n0j0e:
Ok, then your phone is encrypted and messed up with the OxygenOS Pie flash.

Have no hint now anymore. I prefer a clean flash with a 5T Unbrick Tool. Or use these fastboot commands with format system & userdata:

[OnePlus 5T  Guides, News, & Discussion] archz2:
I learnt my lesson the hard way. No way so far to deal with random encryption that pops up by TWRP. I contacted Naman Bhalla who posted modified unbricking tools for OnePlus 2 and 3. He couldn't figure out a way to modify the ops files that are shipped inside the unbricking tools.

Never touch any key or gatekeeper file to remove encryption. Those days of messing with such files are long, long gone.

It's like opening a crypto ransomware that encrypts your phone. No turning back. No ransom. Total Wipeout is inevitable. Not even OnePlus officials will help you. I contacted the customer care, they delivered the bad news.

Then I decided to say final goodbye to my data.

Data is gone, I unbricked my phone, flashed Stock Oxygen OS 9.0.10.

All these 6-7 years of using android phones, I've ALWAYS removed the 4 digit pin BEFORE flashing any zip file. This time was different. The damn touchscreen wasn't responding! My biggest mistake was removing those .key files which are so far known to remove encryption after one gets rid of them..

OnePlus 5t screen blinking/flashing and freezing problem

Hi All,

I am having a strange problem with my OnePlus 5t.

I have used msm flashing tool to flash oxygen os (4.7.4) and after that if I perform an OTA update to 5.1.4 (treble) which creates a vendor partition, phone stands mis behaving (blink, freeze, screen flash like old CRT TV when it has no signal and millions of dots of different colour)

Everything works fine if I use the below link to download one by one all the full updates and perform an update via local storage. https://xdaforums.com/on...s-5t-mirrors-official-oxygen-os-t3708099/amp/

don't know what is the real problem but I am flashing/reflashing all the things which I find in XDA including customer rom, different msm flash etc but problem comes back.

It has been almost 6 months since I am reflashing the stock oos using msm when ever the problem comes back.

I need some advanced help.
