I don't frequently download all available kernels and check the zip file contents just for funsies.

Unless a custom kernel adds a specific feature you need that's lacking in the kernel bundled with the ROM or the stock kernel if you're running stock, I wouldn't bother using one.

In the last 10 years, I haven't seen significant performance increases by flashing a modified kernel. I have seen kernels that fix issues or add features, and those are possibly worthwhile. Otherwise, the power saving claims that almost every kernel makes have been nearly immeasurable.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] jamescable:
Not true. Varun(who complies RR for 8 pro) uses a VERY basic kernel with 0 features. If you use the stock RR 8 pro kernel, you will have wakelocks, battery issues and can't use color management.

How to riturn stock recovery with not delete all data
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] RandomPooka:
JFC, that's a kernel that fixes issues with a bundled kernel. Did you not even read what I wrote?

I don't know what axe you have to grind, or why. But go away and grind it somewhere else instead of looking even more like a fool than you already do. At least pay attention to the post you're trying to correct before you correct it with the exact qualifiers that were given in it in the first place.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Burt Squirtz:
Sorry, James is right.

For example - there's radioactive kernel, in my opinion simply the best kernel for the OnePlus 8 pro. This kernel not only makes the phone feel snappier/smoother (with better touch response), but it has incredible battery life; much better than stock. And, it's built with Proton Clang 12, including poly optimizations. You really notice the performance difference. It's blatant and undeniable.

there's also neutrino kernel - which is the smoothest kernel I've ever seen. Stock kernel blows .

Being able to turn on KCAL color management is. I love rich, punchy colors, and you can't achieve that with stock either...
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] RandomPooka:
I'm not saying he's wrong about the kernel he mentioned that clearly fixes known existing problems like wakelocks or adds features (kcal, for example).

I'm saying both of you have clearly ignored the fact that I specifically said those are the only reasons I would bother installing or recommending someone install a custom kernel.

Hello there! Firstly I'd like to say thank you for all your hard work, it is greatly appreciated by myself and the community.

I was curious if you are working on TWRP 3.5.1 for our devices, and if there is anything I can do to also help, I would love to do so. Thank you, you are the best!!!!!

i fastboot boot twrp...flashed copy partitions zip...clicked reboot..back into android and then adb reboot recovery and it went to one plus recovery. what i do wrong?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] philidor:
Fastboot boot don't flash recovery only boot to recovery. If you want make TWRP your recovery you have to fastboot flash TWRP.

For NOW TWRP don't work on Android 11
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] jamescable:
Actually, the first posts says you can fastboot flash recovery_a and recovery_b. You have to flash it to both slots. But this is for android 10 only. Android 11 is not supported at all
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] philidor:
"Fastboot boot TWRP" boot from TWRP recovery so is normal to have OnePlus standard recovery at reboot

@Rootmaster906 if you want to change permanently from original oneplus recovery to TWRP recovery you have to use "fastboot flash TWRP" on both slots.

And TWRP don't work on Android 11
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] mattie_49:
No matter a10 or test versions for a11 you don't ever want to flash twrp to this device . Only boot through fastboot. Period. Restore doesn't work on A10 so what would be the point anyway ? Kernels through kernel manager/ flasher. Rom fastboot flashes or fastboot updates . And root is with magisk manager patching boot image.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] jamescable:
You're an idiot. @mauronofrio has stated MULTIPLE times that for android 10, it is safe to flash twrp to both slots. I and many other users have done it with no issues. Just because you have an issues, does not mean something is wrong with flashing twrp to 8/8pro
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Rootmaster906:
What's the purpose of flashing copy partitions zip then? I assume it is for flashing stock roms to both slots. Plz confirm this for everyone else. Thanks
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] jamescable:
Not sure what you mean by copy partitions? Do you mean slot a and slot b?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] mattie_49:
Seems you might be the idiot ..read the op and what would be the purpose of this anyway? Let's hear your response. To get rid of stock fastbootd? Just to have there
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] jamescable:
Features:

- TWRP boots;

- Fastboot boot is working;

- Decryption is working.

- Vibration is working.

- System, Vendor and Product partitions mount is working but you can't modify them.

- You can flash magisk and others kernels.

- You can flash ROMs.

- Format Data works.

NOT WORKING:

- ANDROID 11 support

- Backup Restore

- Fastbootd

- System and vendor image flash

Install guide (Reccomended):

Acutally seems oneplus (or directly android 10) re-introduced the recovery partition so you should only flash it in recovery partition or you can try to boot it from fastboot.

To flash:

Code:

fastboot flash recovery_a twrpname.img

fastboot flash recovery_b twrpname.img

If this TWRP is used unencrypted, will it work with A11?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Lossyx:
It seems like it's the case for 7/Pro.

It's not possible to remove decryption on this device, unless you mess with the partitions first.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
If indeed there is a way to flash any TWRP and decryption doesn't work, then it may be possible to push to /temp and then flash from there.

However wiping will still need to be done via a functional recovery, ie: stock

Tbh, as things stand, there is very little you need TWRP for at the moment besides convenience to flash images / zip's, or a full back up.

But as decryption isn't working yet, the aforementioned procedure's can't be performed.

It's best to either roll back to 10

Or

Wait for the Devs to do their magic.

mauronofrio is not working in TWRP at all. So donating is a waste of money. He is already said he is too busy to continue. It IS being worked on by LossyX and I have tested the latest build and sent him logcats. So has others who are working and testing it.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] holofractal:
Interesting. Looking forward to it. I've been holding off on flashing ROMs until it works, just for ease of use and so I'm not tied to a PC to flash stuff. Really excited to have it when it's done! I believe in you all haha! I stand by my donation offer :)
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] sakun-ice:
Can we say that there will be no twrp in Android 11? It's been going on for months and Android 12 is close to being released, so the twrp output for an older version of Android wouldn't do much good.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dominicstg2:
any idea if this will ever come to 8t?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Lossyx:
A11 needs to be supported first, in order to support A12. And OnePlus will probably take their time on OOS12 as well.

whoever said A11 isnt supported, im taking it they mean a11 for OnePlus only right? b/c i am using TWRP with my galaxy s10 and s21 BOTH on android 11. And was simple to install. Used the bootloader unlocking methods from the forum, and once unlocked was able to do a simple Odin flash to get the recovery installed. From there it perfectly decrypts, and in fact YOU HAVE TO activate a screen lock pin, as a pre-requisite to being able to use TWRP for the galaxy snapdragon phones. Just sharing this because i have 2 Oneplus 8t as well on android 11. Is there any similarities between the partition structure of Oneplus 8t and Galaxy s20 considering they both were launched with android 10, and yet i have TWRP with android 11 on the galaxy devices? I understand that they are completely dif devices, but with both phones using Snapdragon 865 chips, i thought that was the main thing that determined the file structure, or am i completely off target? i can share my Galaxy TWRP if anyone thinks it can aid development of TWRP for the OnePLus 8/Pro/T..
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] gaww:
There are less Samsung premium phones and many more devices for each one compared to OnePlus phones, so they get more development for each one.

Worked great.

Lineage MicroG for Instandnoodlep (8 PRO)

Now I wanted to install TWRP.

Didn't find an official build and ended up here.

Have seen that is not officially released and it is not recommended to flash the recovery with TWRP.

Only BOOT

Followed the guide.

Command = fastboot boot twrp.img

Worked only when booting the device runs into an error (same as when flashing TWRP)

Error on screen = Qualcomm Crashdump mode

That's all it says

I can't do anything except turn off the device.

Root OnePlus 8/OnePlus 8 Pro using Magisk (without TWRP) & Install OTA Updates after Rooting

The instructions will work on any OnePlus 8/8 Pro running Android 11 (OxygenOS 11) and Android 10 (OxygenOS 10).

For those who do not know – it is possible to install Magisk and root your phone without installing TWRP at all. This could be done using what we call the “Magisk Patched Boot method“. This alternate rooting process involves patching the stock boot image file in Magisk Manager and then flashing the resultant patched boot image to the phone via Fastboot............

This is a comprehensive all-in-one guide through which you’ll learn how to unlock the bootloader, install TWRP recovery, and simultaneously root OnePlus 8/OnePlus 8 Pro using Magisk.

www.thecustomdroid.com

Important Update: TWRP does not support Android 11 (OxygenOS 11). So, if your OnePlus 8/8 Pro is running A11, please do not attempt to install TWRP. It will end up the phone in Qualcomm’s Crash Dump mode. To fix it, you will need to extract and flash the stock recovery image.

In the meantime, you could easily root your phone without TWRP by following this tutorial.

--------------

I see the thread here is from 2020.

Can someone briefly tell me if TWRP will ever be able to run on Android 11 or is there a knockout criterion that makes implementation impossible.

I bought the phone new. Had previously a XIAOMI MI8 in use.

Lineage MicroG version 18.1

On the MI8 TWRP works fine.

I hope there will also be a solution for the One 8 PRO.

So if you have a link for a tutorial I am grateful.

instantnoodlep

18.1 have installed this version.

You can also send me a PN

So far, alternative ways have not worked. Most of the instructions I found were related to Android 10 or LineageOS 17.1.

With LineageOS 18.1 TWRP does not work.

Thus, I have also not found a way to gain ROOT rights.

The problem I have that after the Magisk patch the boot process did not work.

lineage-18.1-20210508-microG-instantnoodlep-recovery.img

I tried to patch this file because I have no STOCK ROM.

Only this is a recovery and not a boot file

I'm probably making some kind of beginner's mistake because I just don't have enough knowledge.

Is there actually an alternative to TWRP

I am interested in a FULL BACKUP of the entire phone

So if my phone becomes defective that I buy 1:1 the same model and can perform a FULL RESTORE.

Like with TWRP

Titantium Backup is great but for a 1:1 IMAGE backup TWRP was the best solution for me until now.

Thank you

Decryption mainly.. But also mounting partitions AFAIK.

They'll crack it but in all honesty I'll probably have a new phone soon.
