I see, thanks for that info. Do you know if that would happen to mean it is safe to actually flash it on a OP8/OP8P as apposed to just boot into it?

I totally agree that TWRP is more of a convenience than anything. I have always placed a high value on its streamlined simplicity, as well as the amount of work that has been, and continues to be, put into the project. As far as I'm concerned, TWRP will always be a household name, but I digress.

Whether its been as titled official or unofficial, it's still clear to me that it makes perfect sense to use it. It may not be an airtight seamless experience, but that's to be expected when using anything other than stock. From what I've read, people haven't had too many problems with it, which is encouraging.

Wait but [MENTION=912474]Dees_Troy[/MENTION] said TWRP isn't currently supported on devices that ship with Android 10.

What is this black magic?

Any idea when the decryption part will start working ?

I upgraded to 10.5.7 GLOBAal and a magisk module is causing a boot loop. I tried to patch a a new boot.img but it's not working .

Would love to be able to flash magisk through twrp . Right now I need /data decrypted. Any idea ?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Burt Squirtz:
Lol. Good one. there's nothing wrong with the Chinese TWRP. Some people are butthurt because they got a version that could decrypt within 2 days of the device getting released.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] musicman5844:
Actually it's a against xda rules and regulations and a violation of the use of teamwin recovery .I've metion this more than once we have and will continue to put a stop to outside use are sharing of the Chinese twrp and we now have our own twrp by the dev who has always provided us with twrp since op6 mi9 and more .give him time and he will make it great as he always has .
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Burt Squirtz:
Sort of like op7t pro? ?

8 months in and there's still no fully functioning TWRP. and once again there's a fully functioning Chinese one available for that device.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] musicman5844:
Lol wouldn't know I don't have 7t I have op7pro lol twrp and twrp installer works flawless
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] cultofluna:
No need an installer here, this was on the 6/7pro...

Just flash the img to recovery partition to have a permanently twrp

( OP8pro has a separate recovery partition unlike the 6/7pro that contains recovery in boot)
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Batfink33:
They wouldn't want it to be reverse engineered to see how it works, hence they wouldn't give it to the dev.

How flash magisk when decryting not working, with OTG ?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] cultofluna:
Yes
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Lossyx:
Bigbiff got decryption and mounting work weeks ago, before this Chinese TWRP was released.

As you said, 7T Pro has been out for many months now, and now coincidentally they released a TWRP for it just after bigbiff made his changes public.

You do realize he does not specifically build for each device, it's the maintainer that does. Which is exactly what this sounds like, that the Chinese guys just cherry picked his commits and worked on that.

Lastly, no one is butthurt 'that they got it working first', it's about violating licenses and most importantly, about the concept of open source.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
Tbh pal, there's a wrong way and a right way.

If we get twrp working here it's going to look exactly the same in code as the Chinese version.. don't see how it's different.

They're just being dicks in all honesty.

China isn't exactly in a good place in the world's eyes right now, they certainly aren't in mine, so I just don't get the logic from this dev.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Nekromantik:
If Bigbiff got decryption working and his commits are public then why does it not work on this TWRP?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Batfink33:
Yeah, the Chinese Dev is being di**. [emoji1745]
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Nekromantik:
So all of BigBiffs merged commits are already in this TWRP build.

So he did not get it working yet on OP8 series it seems. More work is needed.

OnePlus 8 Can't mount /system to read write

I've tried multiple methods of mounting the /system directory as read write but, all efforts have failed. I am still learning how to use and operate rooted devices so my knowledge is not that great with how to do these things. I've followed many tutorials but I always return some error when using the command "mount -o w,remount /system" usually I'll get an error that reads "mount: '/system' not in /proc/mounts". I have not flashed TWRP only booted with it.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] jamescable:
The irony is that you had time enough to poke fun at me, but the Dev has no time to let people know of progress? Communication with people stops all complaints and issues. ROM devs, and kernel devs communicate with their fan base. That's all I'm saying.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Jacob O Link:

[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] mauronofrio:
My TWRP is able to decrypt without problems on android 10, but android 11 as a new keymaster so it's not possible to decrypt it for now.

Try switching slot and booting, happened with me once. If it boots then you can flash the same update from that slot to reformat the current unbootbale slot into a bootable one. If not then I guess you'll have to try the unbrick tool (I forgot the name)

[Thread Cleaned]

Hello beautiful people around the world!

I have removed a few posts related to another recovery for two reasons:

Recovery's source must be available on XDA (GPL compliance)

It's not nice to discuss another recovery in a recovery thread

We really dig a respectful attitude as outlined in our Forum Rules. Thank you all for your undivided attention and have an amazing day!

I had to MSM twice. The first time I set everything up as everything was wiped and I had backups in a plugin drive, I restored a recent data backup. After that, it would not boot - always went to TWRP.

I had recently restored that data with no issues. On the second round, from the same point - tried again. No boot again.

For some reason, I tried an older data backup, and to my surprise - it worked ?

Every ROM thread says how.

fastboot -w
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] TheUndertaker21:
Without losing my data..
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Lossyx:
Wipe what?

If you are switching rom you need to fastboot -w.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] TheUndertaker21:
You know twrp you can wipe data, system and then factory reset without losing your data.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] knpk13:
I believe OOS and custom ROMs use different types of encryption (I don't fully understand why myself) so you need to fastboot -w , can't preserve data
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] TheUndertaker21:
Yeha I'll think about that if I want to move to another rom.. Hope this twrp is fixed soon.

Weird for a phone that's fully open and still struggle to get twrp running.

Hopefully I'm not back to note before that happens.

You can thank Google and their restructuring of Android do all these problems. It may get worse, as some developers say that Google may make it impossible to make and use any other ROM.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Lossyx:
I'm not sure what you are after?

If you want to switch roms you need to wipe data in Twrp anyways.

If you want to dirty flash, just flash it.

It was early this year - a link on XDA to one of the respected websites like Android police. It was very technical and i did not follow much of it, but it explained how it would come down. I think he also pointed at Qualcomm.

I was wrong to blame only Google now - is also the chip and OnePlus. I have a Samsung and ODIN and TWRP work ok on Android 11. It has the exynos chip.

I would have stayed there if it had the current frequencies for NA, so that's why I'm here.

So if that's the case, does that mean is no point in making backups with TWRP on Android 10 devices, which is the main reason for my installing the custom recovery? I guess it is still useful for flashing zip files.

[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] str8str:
Need more info dude
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Josh McGrath:
Switch from B to A slot and it'll boot up but it's temporary cause as soon as another ota comes you'll been in bootloop again.

Options are:

1. MSM back to stock and try again (I just flashed that same twrp and no issues, don't mount system or anything else like that, that's what looped me, I think

2. Try flashing stock recovery. I don't know where to get that though.

I personally just said screw it and MSM back to stock
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] cityneversleepz:
Sure, I have the one plus 8 IN2010. I am on stock didn't change the rom. All I did before flashing twrp was unlock bootloader and root with magisk. Then I used the fastboot commands to flash the twrp in the OP, but I first flashed the 3.4.0.1 using both the fastboot commands, both the a and the b. Then booted into twrp with the fastboot boot twrp.img command. I formatted data with advanced wipe YES. and rebooted recovery. Maybe that's how I messed up. Coming from v30 we did that so I thought it was okay. Then I tried to reboot into system. It just came back to TWRP. I saw the 3.4.0.2 and realized I missed that by downloading the older version, so I repeated the process with the newest version. Same problem and this time did not format data but maybe the damage was already done. Then I saw in this thread someone said to re-flash the stock boot.img so I tried that too and still no luck. That is where I am at right now. I still have my v30 so I moved my sim over there for the time being. I sure would like to get some friendly help. If I have to follow the unbrick steps, then I can do that too. I am on the latest firmware ending in I think 12. I saw unbrick had up to the firmware ending in 11 so I am not sure if that will work. I was going to read more in the afternoon. Thank you for answering so quickly.

---------- Post added at 04:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:19 AM ----------

I didn't see your reply a few minutes ago, thanks for the advice. What is MSM back to stock? Is that the unbrick method?

edit: tried to flash stock recovery which I got from payload dumper. that brought back the option to go to recovery but could not boot into it. Also tried the B slot and nothing. I get a "can't mount storage message in TWRP. I'm back on the 3.4.0.2 twrp and still have fastboot though. Just let me know what MSM is and I'll do that later today. edit: Okay I see it now. MSM tool for oneplus 8. I will do that later today. Thanks for coming to my aid. I'll be around this phones threads once I get straightened out.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Josh McGrath:
So come to think about it, I did that exact same thing and bootlooped immediately after formatting data too. I'm glad you pointed that out!

You should be good to go after MSM back to stock if you don't format data again.

Also, the OnePlus camera is nowhere near as good as the LG was. I came from the v30 to the OnePlus side for rooting only myself.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Imprezzion:
MSM tool saved my ass many times so far lol. I soft bricked multiple partitions even to the point fastboot flash would error out of half of them with flashing critical isn't allowed even with fastboot flashing unlock_critical enabled lol.

Now it works fine, I'm on DP4 android 11 with my own rooted kernel (stock one from payload patched with latest magisk canary) and it works fine.

Only thing I did find was making a data backup with TWRP also failed from my old botched Android 10 ROM.

Is it normal for this TWRP version to not be able to nAndroid data even if it is decrypted?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] cityneversleepz:
Got back to stock with the MSM tool. The hardest part was getting into EDL. I never got the button combo to work for me. I used the option in TWRP but I was confused about the order of when to connect the cable. The instructions didn't make sense to me, but finally figured it out. Not going to try TWRP until I get some sleep first just in case! Thanks again.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Josh McGrath:

No prob just dont use that option that bootlooped us and you'll be fine to flash it

Good luck. I almost went back to my 20.5.13 AA after not being able to boot. However, without doing anything but getting it ready - I turned it on and it booted. For some reason without touching any earlier OS, it had wiped. I had a oneplus switch backup that helped.

I miss the setup I had, and may yet go back there.
