I spoke too soon. Rooted and such but cannot boot into any TWRP, ??

I'm rooted and running fine. So I go to reboot into recovery via advanced reboot option / recovery and get into and get into the stock recovery with the language choice.

Choose English and get an option to wipe data and cache, or advanced.

Rebooting to fastboot gets me there. I scroll to Recovery selecting it and loop back to the same place.

I have to choose start from boot loader to get out.

I have no accessable TWRP recovery. I have both the enchilada and bluespark on the root.

Talk to me?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] 39FarmallM:
I just did the same thing. You have to plug your phone up to your computer and use ADB and Fastboot. Flash TWRP.

Update to latest version first (Android 9.0.2)

I can verify that the following will then work for you.

fastboot boot

twrp-3.2.3-x_blu_spark_v9.86_op6.img

Then flash (dont reboot yet)

twrp-3.2.3-x_blu_spark_v9.86_op6.zip

Then flash

Magisk-v17.1.zip

Boot and ensure you have Magisk the app and you're all done.

To be safe, I created a Nandroid backup of all stock partitions first (making sure to remove security

Note* I wasn't able to find the blu spark img on the phone anywhere after fastbooting into TWRP. So what I did was install an app called Air Droid which let me upload the files into my phone. Then I just navigated to them once inside TWRP.

Mercy! [IMG="THANK YOU! THANKS."]http://alcphoto.net/gifs/worthy.gif[/IMG]

To Both of you guys!!

I in his follow these instructions "Exactly" he lists older versions of TWRP and there may be my issues. I was following another guide using the newer versions at the top of the list. (as per instructed elswhere). I was doing as he says, even the red cable, but different files.

Are there any cache contents I need to wipe?

Thanks Again.

If TWRP.zip failed to take place of default recovery, you have to allow system modification when you're asked by TWRP.img then install TWRP.zip.

If TWRP.img doesn't have system permission, it won't be allowed to edit anything on system partition hence failed to install anything on the system permanently. Always read TWRP output to check for error. Don't boot to system until you have install everything.

1. Boot to TWRP.img

2. Allow system permission (swipe to allow)

3. Use TWRP to install TWRP.zip (it must be on your phone storage) as the default recovery (if you want to)

4. Reboot to recovery (you'll see if TWRP installation succeeded)

5. Install MAGISK.zip (must be on your phone storage)

6. Reboot to system

You're are now rooted and have a permanent TWRP. At least until you don't flash a new full OTA that will erase TWRP and Magisk.

Magisk.zip install Magisk manager.apk on the system.

I hope I'm clear.

Thanks for this! So the latest standard TWRP 3.2.3.-1 still will not work? I am wondering if Bluspark would not add another layer of complexity and potential issues (as it seems in many user postings)
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] fred_gaou:
The only complexity is that people seems to fail to find last blu_spark TWRP.img and TWRP.zip. The installation steps would be the same with official TWRP but you won't be guaranteed it works since nobody have given full feedback about it.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] ins2d:
Hi everyone! I think I need a little bit of help here. Following the OP instructions, kinda stuck at fastbooting into TWRP / BLUE.

What I did:

- On a complete stock phone with 5.1.8 performed a Local Update with incremental zip to 5.1.11;

...

- When I try to fastboot into TWRP (latest enchilada, also tried blue_spark) - device wouldn't load the touch recovery interface, instead after 1+ Fast Boot logo, I get a black screen (shut off) and a light blue LED. All I can do from there is to shut the phone off completely by long pressing the POWER button.

Feels like missing something simple. Followed instructions carefully. Any ideas guys? :eek:

i wanted to lock my bootloader and make phone like untampered in on 9.0.2
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] CoffeeMachineSwitch:
Hi, did you use TWRP or BLUE?

sounds like an issue with Magisk - did you flash that before rebooting?
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] ins2d:
TWRP at first attempt and BLUE right after...

Didn't even go that far, the temporary boot image wouldn't load. Instead, device locks with screen off and light blue LED on, right after this step: youtu.be/Es80k627kTc?t=240 (just to reference the event/time quickly, actually followed the instructions from this thread, not from the video). I could get the same output from the terminal "...finished loading..." and all, but after 1+ Fastboot Mode screen it won't load into temporary TWRP/BLUE.

My speculations so far:

1) Need specific versions of TWRP/BLUE_SPARK for 5.1.11 Oreo?

2) Win10 / TinyWall / drivers messing things up?

Thank you for helping!

If you still be able to boot into the bootloader mode, you may download the stock rom from here 9.0.2-PIE-OnePlus6Oxygen_22_OTA_027_all_1810260000_d46787d2c9-FASTBOOT.zip and run the batch command "flash-all.bat", then it will restore your OP6 to stock condition.

The warning is normal as you've unlocked your bootloader.

If the official TWRP is working for you, that's it. No need to flash the blu_spark TWRP.

I think it's softbricked

Okay so my phone was working without a lockscreen. Then I added fingerprint and needed a pin and rebooted my phone (don't recall why now and am kicking myself) and it went into bootloop as soon as the walllpaper showed up. I was able to get back into TWRP and attempted to restore a previously saved version made without any passwords and that's where this went to hell. The restore processed "successfully" and rebooted the phone but once that happened it sent me back to TWRP, with errors. I then followed instructions about deleting the locksetting.db-wal, gatekeeper.passkword.key, and gatekeeperpattern.key and now all the information on my phone is wonky. There are no file names that I can use, now just a bunch of letters, for everything that was on the internal storage.

I opened a command prompt on the computer to makes sure I can see the phone using "adb devices" so is there a way to push a zip ROM to the phone and have TWRP install it? I realize my backups are gone (with all the weird code) but I hate to think it's bricked now and I can't push anything over to it. I was thinking since I lost everything so hard, maybe would just best to start fresh with a developer ROM. Please let me know if I can push something and if so how. I had a LG V10 with lollipop OS before all of this, so I apologize for my ignorance the new partitioning is confusing me. The solution for these issues back then would be restore a previously saved ROM and it was like using Windows restore feature to fix it.

I tried clicking on Slot A and B and the file names are still wonky no matter what I click when I checked using TWRP file manager. I think I got these errors when I deleted those files all the data must have been encrypted and somehow now it's all gone and messed up now so that's why I can't boot into anything. Although I feel uneasy not having a screen lock on my phone but I won't do it because this problem is insane. :confused:

Any help is appreciated on either how to check if I can get my stuff back or just push something over instead to then have TWRP install.

:fingers-crossed:
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] :
If you have access to TWRP, you have the ability to use the sideload function to sideload OOS.

If you don't mind losing everything, I'd just format the filesystem and start fresh.

If you don't have access to TWRP, try flashing TWRP.img via the boot loader.

If this doesn't work, try MSM tools.
[OnePlus 6 Guides, News, & Discussion] webfrm:
From Scratch

Thanks yeah sideload didn't work but was able to get into fastboot somehow and was able to push the TWRP image on it again. Once there I did an ADB push of an OTA zip file, although I thought it crashed, and somehow got it to come up factory default. So once again I followed this posts instructions and now have TWRP installed and Magik. My goal would be to try and do that TWRP restore (I had transferred it over to the PC due to the lack of sdcard on this phone) so I don't have to install everything. However I think that might not work right so I guess I am just stuck trying to install everything again one at a time. But at least I am up and running.

Fastboot twrp IMG

Flash twrp zip

Reboot to twrp

Flash ob10

Flash twrp

Reboot to twrp

Flash magisk

Done

If you don't feel like you need twrp:

Update from OS,when it asks to reboot DON'T !

Start magisk app

Select install

Install

Install to inactive slot (after OTA)

Reboot

Since Pie, I only used blu_spark TWRP and have no issues since plus the blu_spark kernel.
