After a lot of hassle I've managed to get the update installed. I've started from a formatted phone. No encryption.

Installed update, installed no verity, reflashed twrp.

I've found that flashing Magisk or superSU causes a bootloop.

Running non rooted works for me.

Lol. What a **** company
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] reneftw:
Well, I guess if we are rooted, we need to format anyway. Nice.

I guess I'll stick to 4.5.14 for now, maybe an easier method appears so we don't have to format.

Hi Guys,

I did a dirty flash over OpenBeta2 and rooted with Magisk 14.6.

I used Method 2 (bluspark TWRP) from OP and it worked flawlessly.

Rom is great so far...

Merry Christmas

greetings rage
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Amos91:
My phone is unlocked and running 4.5.15, only difference with Magisk.

I uninstalled magisk, all okay. Flashed the new zip file in the latest TWRP, flashed noverity just in case and wiped the cache. Now stuck on never ending boot animation. How is that even possible???
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] rb3:
Setting menu looks the same. Quick settings have minor changes to icons and now have 6 across on initial panel.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] reneftw:
Did you wiped system and data? If yes, did you loose anything?

Hello, how can i change the vpn?

Thx
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] fabrquila:
Data loss? Any bug? I'm fully stock on OB2, didn't even unlock the bootloader. I was planning to go back to the OTA path as OnePlus recommended but if this works, that'll be cool.

Download Opera VPN from play store, connect to Canada or Germany, check for updates, as soon as its mentions new update available disconnect VPN and download then through regular connection (works faster than through vpn)
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] BenSow:
Is it compulsory to wipe everything (even data) from N to O? Is that true for OTA updates? That sounds abit far fetched imo
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] drummer_michi:
same problem here. did a normal ota update in the settings, then my phone was stuck on the boot logo.

flashed blu_spark twrp afterwards and saw, that my internal storage looks like that.

can i restore my data (photos, etc) somehow? or do i have to do a factory reset?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] gonsa:
are you using the latest magisk for oreo?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Amos91:
I had to wipe data and reinstalled the full zip. Now working but lost everything.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] drummer_michi:
thanks for the quick answer

so there is now way around a wipe? :(

This it's the the weirdest update ever on Android.

I always clean flash. I even format the phone. Reboot to recovery, reboot to rebovery.. I try with no root. Phone starts but ANdroid phone FC, forever. Now phone it's try to start. White points spinnning, spinning... Maybe it's a bad zip ?!?...

great, internal storage encrypted after following your guide.

how to get my data back/decrypt internal storage????

^^^ is it possible or is my data gone???

:mad::mad::mad::mad:
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] GjorgiDxc:
restore from the backup you made previous to wiping your phone clean
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Toppy02:
Tried Method 2.. Everything wrks fine. phone booted successfully.

Heard that face lock gonna come in next update.. Waiting for that.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] actupsp:
for all who have recovery bootloop after install, you need to format userdata before install the rom
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] kaaseter:
That's actually a great idea! I will try that.

Thanks for your help. :good:
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] MadCow809:
So let me just get this straight...

This is the current status of my OnePlus 5:

Oxygen OS 4.5.15

Rooted with Magisk v14.0

Official TWRP 3.1.1.1

Phone is encrypted (Confirmed under the security settings page)

PIN and Fingerprint have both been removed.
​

Now if I flash this stable Oreo build, will I lose my app settings and all the data (music, photos etc)? The title says no data loss, but a lot of ppl here are reporting boot loops and data loss.

Please can someone confirm on this.:confused: Thanks
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Toppy02:
If you are encrypted, then you have to wipe internal storage to make your phone to boot.

Else flash no verity file to make your phone to boot.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Feedmeeeee:
I saw just a few people achieve last stable update its weird. Did anyone tried to update from ob2 to stable 5 .0 with twrp via local upgrade without losing data ?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Toppy02:
For encrypted users, only way to make the phone to boot is by wiping out internal storage.

For decrypted users, just flash no verity file after flashing rom zip. So data loss.

For you, follow method 2 and at last wipe internal storage.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] thiagoserrao:
Well, i downloaded 4 times, not working at all. i lost all my data, and can't install the new update... sad
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] vortex-5:
Yeah I wiped internal storage (format /data including /media) and I keep getting nothing on bootup of OOS5 phone encryption failed (I flashed no verity)

Apparently no verity doesn't do anything.

I assume the process is still

transfer no-verity (in this case the new one)

flash /system

format /data (including /media)

flash no-verity

flash magisk

reboot....

(getting that error on reboot)
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] MadCow809:
Thanks for clearing that up.

So it seems that this title is completely misleading, definitely not a "no data loss" update. :(

Alternatively, is it possible for me to decrypt the phone and then do the Oreo update without losing the data? Thanks.

Are there any other options to get around this storage format procedure? :confused:
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mohd Haikal:
I have tried this method to upgrading my OP5 from Nougat to Oreo... And its succesfully working and great. But here's the things that i still dont get it.

I can't root my OP5 Oreo based because when i trying to flash Magisk + No verity , when i reboot my device and nothing happen, just black screen and little blue led. Im trying with decrpyt / encrypt and the result was still the same. so sad.

second method i trying to root my oreo using Supersu zip files , everything was going great from bootup until homescreen but when im trying to use apps with root permission , sadly root not detected , triple check it with others apps like Root Checker, Cpu Z and flash it several times and the result is still the same which is no root detected.

And i was using spark blue twrp recovery and need to flash again when you exit recovery mode because seems like in Oreo updates stock recovery will not permanent. you may need to flash it again .

Any idea how to root ???
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] deano321:
Don't know how to progress

I have the OnePlus 5 and I want to update to Android 8 but when I download and restart it restarts into TWRP Recovery.

It is rooted with magisk and I don't know what to do once TWRP opens.

I don't think I have the "BluSpark" Recovery everyone is talking about, do I need it?

And will everything on the device be deleted? Like photos, apps or similar?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] vortex-5:
actually question does OOS5 support F2FS on the data partition? that's how my phone came shipped.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] thiagoserrao:

Can you help me ?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] vortex-5:

Hmmm.... I might have to just reset to Oxygen OS 4.5.15 and not restore it from backup very dissapointing.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] torsergey:

Except one thing ... update will remove everything from home screen (desktop).

Please can someone enlighten us with a method of updating rooted and encrypted OnePlus 5 to Oreo without the need to wipe the storage?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] FloyderE:
I followed every step but it ended up with a bootloop, I flashed TWRP back again and saw that all my folders are named with a string of random characters. How do I decrypt my data? I had previously disabled system security!

There's a command line/adb command/ fastboot command to decrypt everything using the previous password?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] nvidia70:

[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] foomanjackel:
worked for me as well. ecrypted, latest blu_spark twrp vers 3.2.1, and magisk 14.6:

first i booted to twrp and flashed latest blu_spark twrp, version 3.2.1.

booted back to twrp, wiped cache & dalvik and flashed the stable oreo build.

when it completed i again flashed the latest twrp and rebooted to it.

finally i flashed the latest magisk version 14.6, wiped cache & dalvik once more and rebooted the phone.

so far, so good

also, i did not erase pattern or fingerprints before procedure and they are still functioning. did not lose any data either.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] elbuenzurdo:
Pray for me & my data, gonna dirty flash (flash cache/dalvik only) over OB2 with latest blu_spark TWRP. I will let you guys know got it goes.

Edit: it worked in the following order -

1. Dalvik/cache wipe in blu_spark TWRP.

2. Flashed full Rom.

3. Flashed Magisk 14.5.

4. Wipe dalvik and cache again.

5. Reboot.

I had some random reboots the first hour of usage, but solved the issue by going into TWRP again and wiping dalvik and cache.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] freakyman23:
I have had the same issue as many other have been experiencing.

After flashing the phone did not get Further then the circling dots, my TWRP did not ask for a password and did not show any data (and a bunch of mounting errors).

I had to whipe the whole phone, reflash en re-enable encryption on my phone. Everything is working again, but lost all my data.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] vortex-5:
I did a restore now with the official unbrick tool and I noticed that wifi is still broken so I'm completely at a loss.

I also just tried flashing 8.0 after booting in the official unmodded firmware and nothing it was stuck at the dots for 10min.

I'm ok with having to go back to my old backup but the wifi is still broken and I don't have a solution to this very important fundemental problem.

Additionally if I format data I'm in the welcome screen as expected but the wifi still doesn't connect even though I can see my wifi hotspots.

Do I have to RMA at this point? Does anyone here know what might be causing the wifi break another user also has this issue.

Help!

Thx for the rooting guide, your hint to the BluSpark TWRP saved me.. I could install that, in opposite to the 3.2.1 it did recognize the encryption and installed Magisk.

Great work.

This Oreo update is really good, device seems much more fluid and snappier than before, also if u turn the open gl mode to skia in developer options device seems to be more faster while navigating around, for audio mod I use James DSP magisk module since v4a is not officially available for oreo, it's pretty amazing imo
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] ibrokemypie:
no matter how I flash I always get stuck at the boot animation

I have tried doing a full format, then flashing the stable nougat, the doing a local upgrade to oreo and even that doesnt work, no modifications, no magisk nothing, just the stock mechanism. What am I doing wrong?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] foomanjackel:
No problem with WiFi or any other issues so far.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] saggiboy231:
i also faced the same issue.

I wipe the device clean, and just put the stock rom that i want to flash.

Then flash the stock recovery, install the rom, if it does no open internal storage, install it via adb sideload.

After that u setup the device, then flash twrp.

Worked for me

I got same issue OP5 went bootloop after upgrading to Oreo. All of my files from internal storage also encrypted unable to decrypt both stock recovery and twrp 3.2.1.0. What I did is to download the previous ROM which is 4.5.15 then I used ADB sideload from TWRP then clear dalvik and cache. Now device able to boot back to 4.5.15 with internal storage recovered. HTH
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] GroovyGeek:
This step should be split in two and the need to reflash recovery should be highlighted in red. I overlooked this part and now my phone is in a boot loop. I am from a PC at the moment and will have to try to reflash the recovery throug adb. At the moment my sdcard is completely scrambled up, hope that I don’t loose everything. Yes, it is my responsibility to read carefully but putting multiple critical steps in a single instruction is just bad practice.

[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] WhoDunnit:
Just to be clear: did you use the official twrp 3.2.1.0, or the blu_spark version? Booting with official 3.2.1.0 does not even show my scrambled files, I can only see them with blu_spark.

I am stuck in boot animation after installing an OTA upgrade (unlocked bootloader, no root, stock recovery, was on previous stock ROM, 4.5.14 I guess). I have tried adb sideloading the same update (OTA_027), but it did not change anything, still stuck in the boot animation. I have also tried adb sideloading the previous version 4.5.14 (OTA_019), but this fails at about 46%.

unfortunately I was so dumb as not to backup my data (I did not expect an OTA on stock to cause this), so I'm still looking for solutions which might let me salvage anything..
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] WhoDunnit:
OK, thank you. When selecting the ADB Sideload feature in TWRP, did it complain (in red) about "Could not mount /data and unable to find crypto footer? Failed to mount /data"?

How long is a first boot time after flashing this update?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] exis_tenz:
Maybe a stupid idea, but I am a bit noobish in this. Running stock 4.5.15, rooted, K2 TWRP and Magisk.

Is it not an option to just flash stock recovery (via ADB or Root Toolcase), then remove/deinstall Magisk and use the OTA update? After that flash Blue Spark via ADB, reflash Magisk and be good to go?

Unfortunately this is my daily driver company phone so I haven't the time to experiment with it at the moment.

Was on rooted 4.5.15. Tried to install Oreo using the instructions in the thread. Always ended up with bootloop

Reverted back to 4.5.15 erasing all partitions. No root. Storage is encrypted. Used canada VPN to download OTA. Even the OTA is causing bootloop.

How are people even installing this update. Is there something wrong with the released ROM or is it something to do with our partiotions

EDIT: went to recovery and erased storage(factory reset). Now it boots in Oreo, but all my data is lost.

Managed to recover my data!

Thank you [MENTION=2143201]combathero[/MENTION] you just saved my day!

Just like many others, my device was broken after installing the update from 4.5.15 to 5.0 thorugh the OP5 updater.

Stuck in the boot logo all night long.

Trying to reinstall 5.0 through adb sideload OnePlus5Oxygen_23_OTA_027_all_1712231851_8d16de8.zip from stock recovery did not resolve the situation.

Trying to reinstall 4.5.15 through adb sideload OnePlus5Oxygen_23_OTA_020_all_1712052226_98fd584ab032fe.zip from stock recovery failed.

Booting into TWRP through fastboot boot twrp-3.2.1-0-cheeseburger.img I could not even see my files: /sdcard was empty.

Booting into TWRP through fastboot boot twrp-3.2.1-x_blu_spark_v8.61-op5_op5t.img I could see my files in /sdcard, but they were scrambled, since TWRP did not ask for a unlock code.

I successfully managed to recover my data in the following way. $$ denotes a command entered in a terminal.

1. Boot into TWRP through

$$ fastboot boot twrp-3.2.1-0-cheeseburger.img

2. Select adb sideload; for me this complained (in red) about not being able to mount /data because of missing decryption keys.

3.

$$ adb sideload OnePlus5Oxygen_23_OTA_020_all_1712052226_98fd584ab032fe.zip

and tick wipe cache and dalvik-cache This will manage to update the system partition, but will fail when trying to do something with the data partition.

4. Reboot into fastboot

5. Boot into TWRP through

$$ fastboot boot twrp-3.2.1-x_blu_spark_v8.61-op5_op5t.img

Now I was asked for a unlock pattern! /data was successfully mounted and decrypted!

I'm now backing up and copying anything that's on my device, so no clue what will happen if I restart my phone or if it will even work. At this point I do not really care, because I have my data back.

[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] MadCow809:
DId anyone (rooted user) manage to flash this Oreo build without the need to format or wipe the storage partition?

From what I can see here on this thread, it's pretty much certain that rooted & twrp users are screwed. It's pretty obvious that every rooted user is getting boot loops/some form of data loss.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] qot:
Is it called "Reset system setting"/"System data & cache reset" in stock recovery? If yes, I have tried this now and got the same boot animation loop once again.

Also, for some reason, the adb sideload always finishes at 94% and says "Total xfer: 2.00x", although on the phone it says "Install success". I wonder if this is really ok?

(I am using adb sideload OnePlus5Oxygen_23_OTA_027_all_1712231851_8d16de8.zip)

I have also tried using TWRP, it says "Could not mount /data and unable to find crypto footer", "Failed to mount '/data' (Invalid argument)" in the log.

I've formatted system partition in TWRP and tried doing adb sideload from there. This way it finishes at 47% and says "Total xfer: 1.00x", and "ADB Sideload Complete/Successful" in TWRP itself. The result is still the same though, boot animation loop..
