Unbelievable, what a cluster f *** this turned out to be for everyone. Obviously the only way to be on the right path is to do it the official OnePlus way, by flashing stock recovery and updating with it.. But yes, I think upgrading to a new big android version is for sure a good reason to start fresh. So nandroid, TB and backup of all internal files on the way :)... Clean flash and happiness with all new Oreo OOS. And since xposed shouldn't take that much longer, all seems even better :good:
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] sansanc:
I followed this method plus wiped internal storage to install fresh, backed everything to computer too, and it doesn't boot. Just sticks to oneplus logo. I think i was encrypted because TWRP asked for pattern.

No method for encrypted phones? This update seems like a clusterf*ck indeed.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] MadCow809:
It would be nice if we can get a proper detailed tutorial for rooted & encrypted Nougat OOS users with pre-Oreo compatible TWRP installed.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] sansanc:
I second this.

Also tried skipping the no_verity file, not it just loops in the animation.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Feedmeeeee:
Yes its happening on ob2 too
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] sansanc:
What on the system file manager, can you boot?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tuqano:
I guys, i keep loosing the recovery every time i reboot? Why?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] kalaris:
Okay good! I mean not so good but thank heavens I'm not the only one :)
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Amos91:
I had that... Ended up flashing recovery though the Flashify app. It's now working correctly with bluspark twrp.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tuqano:
But you need root access to use this app, and actually magisk and supersu give me bootloop :crying:

EDIT:

You have to remove any pin or fingerprint before flash magisk
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] sansanc:
I flashed full ROM on TWRP, everything wiped, but now i have boot loops. Went to recovery, but the ROM installed original recovery, sideloaded the ROM agaim, still boot loops. My device was rooted and encrypted. Any ideas? Also, why does TWRP asked for pattern when i wiped everything?

EDIT: Formatted everything on TWRP, looks like it decrypted everything, so i did method 2 in full, boot is stuck on oneplus logo (not boot animation). Any ideas? Should i try to install without root, and not re-installing TWRP after ROM install? Just installing the no-verity file?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Amos91:
Have you wiped the data partition?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] sansanc:
Talking to me or toqano? Please quote the user your talking too, otherwise this get even more confusing haha :)
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tuqano:
He was talking to you :), btw after all second method steps, go to wipe-format data to boot correctly
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] sansanc:
Humm, but won't that erase everything? Even the system itself?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] vortex-5:
Does anyone know if the new OOS5 Supports F2FS on the /data partition I'm starting to feel like that answer is a NO which will explain why users that can boot correctly with dm-verity installed correctly will be greeted after boot with an "Encryption Unsuccessful"

After formatting /data back to ext4 it seems to be working.

Now if anyone else is running F2FS try this first and we can confirm the stock rom no longer supports F2FS on /data (This was fine on Nougat)
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] sansanc:
I tried FORMATING and just wipping data and internal storage, still stuck on logo.

EDIT: Now it boots, i just installed the ROM and blu spark TWRP recovery, i did NOT install supersu and the no-verity file. Maybe the stuck logo was caused by supersu? I was using the file SR5-SuperSU-v2.82-SR5-20171001224502.zip and no_verity_mod_For_OOS_Oreo_by_HatriGt.zip.

Have to check if the phone is encrypted or not. I want it encrypted BTW: But also rooted, i'll check soon if i can root it without problems.

EDIT2: I confirm that installing supersu from the file (last version) SR5-SuperSU-v2.82-SR5-20171001224502.zip is making by phone being stuck on Oneplus logo. I waited some minutes, nothing happened. So, maybe time for moving to Magisk....

EDIT3: Magisk is working fine.

There is a small problem on method 2, flashing TWRP right after flashing the ROM doesn't avoid ROM erasing TWRP and installing original recovery. So, went to fastboot and installed blu spark TWRP from there.

Hello man, I had a frustrated attempt to install Oreo on my phone.

I am now using version 4.5.10 with root, twrp (3.1.1) and encrypted.

Can I use the reasoning method 3, use the recovery stock and give flash in rom? If I am wrong, can you tell me the easiest way to do this?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] fjsferreira:
Quick settings tiles are now white on the stock theme but all custom tiles added from other apps are still blue. Lol, what a joke. That is terrible.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] sansanc:
Backup first! With Titanium and also TWRP. Then copy all of your internal storage to computer. Wipe everything and even format on TWRP, then procede with method 2. Don't install the latest version of supersu, see my post above. Magisk works good. Use or not the no-verity file if you want or not encryption.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] lvints:
I've already copied the files to the PC.

In my attempt with TWRP 3.2.1 of blue spark I made all the wipes, however I could not see my files anymore. Why do you think this happened?

I do not have much experience with the OP, sorry if the question is very noob.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Feedmeeeee:
Didnt u remove your pattern/fingerprint/pin
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] gianton:
Flashed over ob2 with stock recovery, working great.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] fnetf:
[MENTION=5284972]HatRiGt[/MENTION]

My Configuration Nougat 4.5.15, Root Supersu 2.82, "decrypted"!

Did Method 2 works for me without Data Loss?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] lvints:
I remember deleting fingerprint and pattern.

How did you install Oreo?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] HatRiGt:
First open supersu app and remove it completely.

Remove any pattern / fingerprints.

Then follow method 2. But Don't flash magisk or supersu.

Flash rom and twrp.

Then reboot to twrp and flash No-verity file and reboot to system. Check whether it boots.

Then after first boot, flash latest magisk on twrp.

For safer side take backup of ur files to pc. Bcos most of the ppl say that our internal storage needs to be wiped if we come from Nougat to oreo.

Kindly try this and report me.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] fjsferreira:
Can anyone confirm that on stock theme, quick settings added by 3rd party apps are blue accented while stock tiles are white? That's awful :(
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] swordfish123:
I am on Oreo. After endless bootloops finally managed to get Oreo using stock recovery.

My current status is Oreo, unrooted, encrypted, stock recovery.

Can someone advice how to obtain root. Does flashing twrp and magisk cause any bootloops.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] sansanc:
If you wiped everything, then of course no files will show on TWRP. That's what is supposed to happen :)

Format (not wipe) the phone, then follow method 2, copy ROM file to phone, etc. Do not use latest supersu, it will be stuck on boot logo. So, do everything on method 2 but install latest magisk. If you want encryption, then do NOT install no-verity, if you want decrypted, then install it. I prefer encrypted, so if someone steal my phone, they can't access my files.

---------- Post added at 01:50 ---------- Previous post was at 01:44 ----------

Hat, you could put a warning on your first post, so people get warned and save a lot of frustation just like i felt.. Because latest version of supersu will soft brick. Magisk works good.

No, they work fine. Install blu spark TWRP and latest magisk. Install TWRP from fastboot, then install magisk from TWRP.

My working files:

twrp-3.2.1-x_blu_spark_v8.61-op5_op5t.img

Magisk-v14.6(1468).zip

Supersu will soft brick.

First world problem. You should be happy that you didn't lost any files like some people did.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] theBIGone:
For me Magisk 14, 14.6 and 15 caused a bootloop. Only 14.5 seems to work in my case. My phone is encrypted.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Lvsitano:
I did a backup with TWRP, but the backup inside internal memory is encrypted, and no TWRP versions ever asks for encryption key. I have tried several guides and so far, I was not able to retrieve my data. I tried to sideload latest Nougat zip but it gives an E1001 error, and does not apply.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] -fluffy-:
now i have flashed this

an all works fine

an i restored my data after flashing the rom

that also works fine

for faceunlock

well i will say it works 50%

wen i double tap an screen come on it will find my face but i have to swipe up to unlock the screen

I am on OOS5.0 encrypted. How can I root it with Magisk?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] nono77240:
Hi to all,

In case you want to root or install an other kernel, here is what I've done.

I installed first OOS 5.0 stable.

I used it this way for a day.

After, I flashed latest blu TWRP .

Booted into recovery, flash latest blu kernel and magisk 15.

Everything is working fine.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Klawzy:
Can someone send me magisk 14.5 zip, because I can't find any download links. 14.6 cause endless loading on Boot animation. Currently unrooted on OOS Oreo. Also when ever I launch OSS Oreo twrp recovery reverts back to stock recovery. Thanks in advance.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Queky:
are you sure root is failing?

after flashing just the full rom zip via twrp, you have to leave it boot for the first time. then you have to enter again recovery and flash root zip.

haven't tried it, but had that problem (bootloop) when i did a clean install of 4.5.15

hope it helps
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] r4f4marques:
I messed up for not reading the instructions and forgetting to disable security measures.

Lost everything and afterwards was having trouble installing Oreo.

What i did to get everything working is:

- Installed TWRP from Blu_Spark.

- Installed OOS Oreo Beta 2.

- Installed OOS 5.0 Update.

- Installed Magisk Beta.

Maybe it will help someone else.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] lvints:
No need wipe ir format data?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] r4f4marques:
Yep, after i messed up for not disabling security measures (PIN and fingerprint scanner) i had to do a full wipe.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] lvints:
For disable them just delete on settings, right?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] r4f4marques:
I imagine this would suffice. But since i messed up before doing it as advised i cannot say for sure this would be enought to rid you of pottential problems.

It seems a lot of people have been having issues with this update.

I just posted in hope of helping someone who messed up the installation like i did and is stuck in a boot loop.

Black screen, blue led after update -> try this solution

Hi to All,

when you have a black screen with a only a blue led after you tried to update and you only see encrypted files in twrp,

then adb sideload you latest installed image (http://downloads.oneplus.net/devices/oneplus-5/), wipe cache and dalvik-cache an the try to boot up. For me, this works fine, all my data is back! :D

(You have to reinstall twrp and root after you flashed the image...)

Big thanks :good: to [MENTION=2143201]combathero[/MENTION] and [MENTION=602672]WhoDunnit[/MENTION]!

Hello

I'm french noob user

My op5 :

Twrp blu_spark 8.61

OOS 4.5.15

Rooted Su V2.82 SR5

Encrypted partition

How can I upgrade to oreo without any problems ? :confused:
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] sansanc:
Try blu spark TWRP, if my device is encrypted, blu spark will surely ask for pattern.

If you format, it will delete everything, even encryption. Backup to pc.

Follow my post before to see how i got rid of boot problems.

Let it boot for one time before installing root.

---------- Post added at 18:37 ---------- Previous post was at 18:30 ----------

See my post, better install fresh... Backup first, always important.

https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=74971464&postcount=276

Also, let it boot one time before installing root magisk.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Alf 15:
Thank you ;)
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] MadCow809:
You can't. Doesn't matter which method you try, you will end up wiping out your internal storage and lose the encryption status. The whole tutorial was very misleading and now we have a ton of users reporting soft brick/boot loop/data loss issue.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] canabals:
Hi there,

I am seemingly stuck, and I think it will require a wipe, but I figured I would check first to see if anyone has any ideas.

Status of phone before update:

Unlocked bootloader

Everything else stock (OS, no root, stock recovery etc.)

Update downloaded the OTA on its own (I am in Canada), and chose update and reboot without thinking (every other OTA worked fine, but I guess minor updates had no issues).

The phone is now stuck in a boot loop. edit: red circle with white circles going around it

Tried TWRP, it seems everything is encrypted.

ADB sideload does not work, so I cannot do that. "cannot read" error.

Thanks
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] sansanc:
Install blue spark TWRP if you haven't done so yet. Do a backup there. Copy everything to pc. Do a clean install.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] canabals:
Unfortunately it is encrypted. I found a workaround using the method here to get it unencrypted at least: https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-5/how-to/guide-restore-data-stuck-bootloop-n-o-t3724515

Seems I will be doing it as you mentioned, thanks.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] swap102010:
I agree with [MENTION=2527351]MadCow809[/MENTION]. Tutorials are misleading. If you are experiencing boot-loop then you can reboot in recovery again and try to mount System and Cache partition. It may work. This is issue with un-locked boot-loader and root users. Did Oneplus mention somewhere that they are supporting un-locked boot-loader devices in Oreo update?

But better to do clean install by wiping all partitions. Of course take backup of data first.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] Mediatech1:
Hi [MENTION=1830792]Hatr[/MENTION]igit just a point of note. I have a OP5, 4.5.15 OS and in Recovery there is no "Wipe Cache" per se only "Wipe data and cache", so w respect to Method 1, I don't see how that is applicable unless it is for the 5T.

(don't care losing data)

[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] lvints:
For this method I need to remove root (magisk), put stock recovery, and relock bootloader?
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] MadCow809:
Step 1: Remove all fingerprint & pin from the device

Step 2: Reboot the device to bootloader

Step 3: Using a PC/Laptop, flash Blu_Spark TWRP via ADB command

Step 4: Reboot device to TWRP

Step 5: Delete dalvik, cache, system & internal partition

Step 6: Format device

Step 7: Copy Oreo Rom onto your device

Step 8: Flash Oreo under TWRP

Step 9: Flash no_verity_mod file

Step 10: Reboot into Oreo Oxygen OS

Step 11: Flash Magisk Beta for root
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] 3DSammy:
I'd like to suggest a few minor modifications to your steps:

======================================================

These instructions are exclusively for Oneplus 5 phones that are rooted, using a stock OOS Nougat (4.5.x) ROM with data encrypted. WARNING these steps will reformat ALL your user data so make backups and copy those backups to OTG storage or a PC/Laptop! The phone's internal storage (/sdcard and /data) will be erased during the update process!

Step 0: Backup your apps and their data with Titanium Backup then copy the /sdcard/TitaniumBackup folder to a PC/Laptop or OTG storage

Step 1: Remove all fingerprint & pin from the device (!! IMPORTANT !!)

Step 2: Reboot the device to the bootloader

Step 3: Using a PC/Laptop, flash Blu_Spark TWRP via ADB command

Step 4: Reboot device to TWRP (now the Blu_Stark version)

Step 5: Take a nandroid backup and copy it to a PC/Laptop or OTG storage

Step 6: In TWRP delete dalvik, cache, system & internal partition

Step 7: Format device

Step 8: Copy Oreo Rom and the no_verity_mod files onto your device

Step 9: Flash Oreo under TWRP

Step 10: Flash no_verity_mod file

Step 11: Reboot into Oreo Oxygen OS

Step 12: Using a PC/Laptop, flash Blu_Spark TWRP (again) via ADB command then boot into TWRP recovery

Step 13: Flash Magisk Beta (v14.6 or v15) for root. Do not root with SuperSU at this time.

Step 14: Boot into system and begin recovering your user data/apps from the PC/Laptop backups

NOTE: I have NOT personally tested the steps above but it's the plan I'm trying to verify from the abysmal posts of other stock, rooted, encrypted XDA users.

My own question is, with the flashing of no_verity_mod, do you end up with decrypted user data? If the answer is yes can you re-encrypt through the OOS settings or any some other way?

Now I can't get my op5 device rooted.

I did try all the magisk beta builds 14.6 15.0 give infinite bootloop and the 15.1 beta just gives me a blackscreen.

4. Flash Magisk 14.5: https://androidfilehost.com/?w=file...f03259a46a4243e3a3ca91c411d73d5a1006c0a8f2e3c

5. Clear Dalvik Cache + Cache

6. Flash no-verity (first post attachment)

7. Clear Dalvik Cache + Cache

8. Reboot and let it load for about 5 mins.

Note: if after step 8 it loads for 2 mins then reboots in recovery, just flash Magisk Uninstaller and wait for a good Magisk

Gentlemen, try letting it boot one time after installing the ROM, before installing magisk. Here, i did a clean install (wipe and format), then after booting one time, i installed magisk 14.6. Working fine now.
[OnePlus 5 Guides, News, & Discussion] dalukas:
My op5 is encrypted atm. When doing that clean install,

Do I need to

1. wipe cache, dalvik and system in twrp

2. Flash the rom in twrp and leave my internal storage as is (Encrypted?)

3. Boot the first time

4. re-flash TWRP and reboot to it and then flash the magisk you are mentioning?

Will my ROM boot as my internal is encrypted or will I need to format my internal as well?

If so can I just format my internal from in TWRP because 1 month ago when I tried to format my internal it soft-bricked my internal storage aka I couldn't copy anything to it and had to reformat it with stock recovery.
