I successfully installed the driver and have attempted both msmdownloadtool v4.0 factory and the mcl versions but I am presented with the same error message on both, "images do not match". Does anyone have a good idea as to how to fix this?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] GraveDigger176:
Have you a t-mobile OnePlus 6t or the international version, when you have the international version use MSN exe without "factory and mcl"

I have the tmobile version. I was able to figure it out, the files were in the wrong directory.

Did someone try to flash it on China variant A6010?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] mj084:
No one?;)
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] :
It is part of package, not individual image.

U can get image from fastboot package, but it not recommended to flash persist.

Flash msmtool to return complete stock.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] mj084:
Ok just for clarification: when I use MSMTool, persist.img would be flashed too?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] justwondering:
Help and advice please.

Okay, I've got a oneplus 6t (uk model) on beta 3, oneplus support told me If I wanted to go back to stable (new version just released today 9.0.12) then I could simply download the latest rom and it would happily update my beta 3 to the latest stable rom.....as the 9.0.12 stable is newer than my current beta install.

They said, Just download to my phone, goto updates, local, point it at the update file, install etc

But other people are saying I need to use msmdownloadtools.

So who is correct?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Caltinpla:
As far as I know, if you're stock with locked bootloader you can go from stable to OB rom without issues but not the other way around. But if you're rooted or bootloader unlocked then you can flash back and forth between them.

If you trust the OP support then try and let us know how it goes.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] worshipfulone:
I'm in the same boat (only I'm on Beta 4). Let us know what you decide/do. #crossesfingers
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] mlock420:
Yeah same because as of now no access to a PC...wish we could local upgrade everything like this lol
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] Caltinpla:
Local upgrade wouldn't let you update to .12 because OB 4 is a newer version.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] zymphad:
Is there a guide on how to use this tool to get rid of the integrity message for rooted devices?
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ZeroKool76:
There is a perfect example of OP trying to F#$k you. Absolutely nothing wrong with updating through twrp, but they want to try and scare people with that BS. OP treating us like we are idiots is why this will be the last OP device I own.. OB4 and .12 have the same security patch, so that local upgrade warning is BS. And wtf kind of company releases newer builds with older security patches. Oh yeah, OP again. #F#$kOP

The warning you get from any rooted device whether it be this or Pixel, can't guarantee integrity blah blah. Thought could use this to get rid of that boot message. The dm-verity enforcing did not work.

Hey guys... is there an easy way to package any particular OOS image with the MSM Tool so that I can completely wipe my 6t fresh with the new 9.0.12 image? Or any other images down the road for that matter...
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] :
Not til we get a new msm tool with that OOS version. They're encrypted ops files so we can't edit them
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] zdrucker:
Ah... so who actually compiles the MSM Tool with the new image? Is that not something that we can do? I wish that there was a tool like Samsung's Odin that would allow us to take an image and restore.

Every time I download the msm tool from every mirror the file won't open or extract. Does anyone have the tool for 9.0.11 zipped in a non corrupt file?

Have you enable the developer menu, enable usb debugging and give permission first time with adb and.fastboot in windows?

NO !

twrp.img needs to boot. In Fastboot you type

Fastboot boot (name of the recovery).img.

Phone boots on twrp. Now you flash twrp.zip. Reboot to recovery to see if is ok.

Use 3.2.3.1 from official site. Or 3.2.3-28.

My phone is stuck on the boot animation and the tool can't fix it, it goes throught the process flawlessly but when it reboots it happens again, just the boot animation. The worst part is that my phone has the bootloader locked, so I can't do too much.

What can I do?

Can anyone help me out here?

I tried to update from OOS OB4 to OB5 in twrp but it resulted in bootloop. I tried to wipe out system and cache and flash the zip(not the beta), I tried to reboot to system but it showed no OS installed. I tried to reboot to TWRP but it couldn't decrypt my data, I even tried using command line to decrypt but nothing worked. I tried wiping out cache and data(not internal storage) and rebooted but this time phone booted to fastboot and would not go back to recovery. I even tried booting twrp with adb fastboot but it kept showing me error "FAILED (remote: Failed to load/authenticate boot image: Load Error)". I tried switching slots and rebooting/fastbooting but nothing worked. The phone is stuck in bootloader. I tried the MSM tool, I installed the Qualcomm drivers but my device didn't show up as Qualcomm or anything, it shows up under 'Kedacom USB Device > Android Bootloader Interface'. How am I supposed to fix this?

EDIT/UPDATE: MSM tool seems wonderful but my device wouldn't detect. Anyway, I tried this Fastboot ROM guide and flashed ROM via fastboot and voila, my phone booted up! Hope this helps someone with similar issues.

I had bricked my phone yesterday and was on 9.0.12. I booted into slot B hoping to have something after messing up. All I had was fastboot. I used this tool and took it back to 9.0.11

I had called OP (one plus) to see if this was safe and they sent links to these files password protected and wanted to do a remote session. Once I seen the files were the same I went for it. I used the bottom 1 of the 3 exe. in the file and all went smooth. Good luck

Another brick

Hi guys. Will be glad if somebody can help me. Few days ago I've unlocked the bootloader and rooted my OP6T International, then decided to unroot it and locked the bootloader, so I was running on a stock 9.0.12 with unroot/locked boot. Yesterday when I tried to unlock the system by fingerprint phone got stuck and switched off.

I tried the MSM Download tool 4.0.58 OOSv9.0.11, it recognizes the phone (everything goes well like in the instruction) but I always get some errors after clicking 'Start' button:

- sometimes it can be FirehoseReadData Failed, Errno: 258

- sometimes it gets stuck on the 11 second (always 11) on Param processing

I tried different USB ports ports on my laptop, also tried previous version of MSM Download Toold - but result is the same, nothing helps. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] amt911:
I ran the program and all went fine, but when it rebooted the phone got stuck on the boot animation (the red spinning circle thing) and I can't do anything because the program locked the bootloader.

Can someone help me please?

Thanks.
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] ZeroKool76:
I'm sorry to hear that. Still haven't heard a valid reason why people use this, over the FASTBOOT roms. If I were you, I would DL the AIO tool and re unlock your BL. Then just grab whatever version of OOS you want, in FASTBOOT format. I have thoroughly screwed up my device every which way from Sunday, and I have yet to come across a scenario that required this tool. The FASTBOOT ROMs have always been the way to go for me, and they're updated a lot more often
[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] amt911:
I wish I could do that, but the OEM Unlock Setting in Developer Options is turned off since the tool wipes all the data from the phone, so I don't know what to do.

[OnePlus 6T  Guides, News, & Discussion] null0seven:
Sorry.

This is for op6, so i removed download links.

You can use it to revive your op6, if you can boot in fastboot and have done the stuff with drivers (qualcomm)

Guide how to revive your op6:

First of all, you need to access to fastboot mode, if you can't , contact Oneplus support, then have a windows computer and download these file and drivers qualcomm and extract in one folder.

After you have all the file ready, plug in the phone to the computer, go in device manager and under port (COM) disinstall qualcomm one (oneplus 6) and then unplug.

Now you have to go in Windows test mode to not let him install default drivers, so:

windows key (on keyboard) + X, windows powershell (or normal prompt) administrator and write and enter: bcdedit /set testsigning on ( you will repeat the same process with "off" to stop the test mode after you will finish to do all the things).

Reboot the system and you could see in bottom right corner the test mode, now you are ready to install properly drivers.

Power off the phone, then hold for 5 seconds vol up and plug the usb to computer. Now you have to see US8_BULK as new device connected and you can also see in device manager; if you can't notice it, repeat the process until you see it (power on, power off, hold...) there is a full youtube guide for op5 and it's the same process (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PpLvmID1wdI)

Right click con US8_BULK in device manager and update drivers by system files (go to the folder's drivers you had extracted before).

Now you should see qualcomm drivers under port (COM).

You are ready to let the tool to do all the stuff, so let plugged the phone, always powered off, right click on msmdownloadtool and execute as administrator.

You should see your device and click start to begin the process; if it gives you some error (like sahara or something else), unplug, power on, power off and the plug it again, now it should be fine.

And that's it, the tool will do all the work and, at the end, you will have like a brand new phone ready to a new setup.
