After many days and at least 30 hours I have successfully reinstalled OOS on my phone and it is working!!!!! Like others have said I did all the right things but changing to a USB 3 port finally worked. I can't explain it except I feel like I am an expert on trying EDL and MSMDownload now. But I don't know if it will work again but I hope I don't have to try.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] flimo:
Yes Succesfully. But before, I Flash To HydrogenOS https://mega.nz/file/O8UySbgR#cXGlHkdA_7CYEhKIrek9zzAEwJ7Vx1D5BZdemnPlvGE

( It's a chiana version with just english langage ) and after upgrade to Oxygene. This version restore my phone and my recovery.All it's OK.

For install OxygenOS just download from Onelpus . Copie the file with USB cable to the phone racine. ( Option share transfert in developer menu need be actived before ).

After the OxygeneOS upgrade and phone rebooted ( EU K05BA for me ) I just do a complete reset.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] enderguzel:
which version of hydrogenos did you flash?
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] prathamgupta:
Every time I run the MSM tool I don't see any COM port. I have tried multiple versions 11.0, 11.0.4.5, 11.0.7.9. None show it.

I have a OnePlus 8t Indian version running on Pixel Experience Plus.

Can I use this to convert my current T-Mobile OP8T to International Version OP8T? If so, do I need to unlock my bootloader?
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] ecwolf:
Thanks, my oneplus 8T was bricked, and this is the only msm tool that worked.

My phone has a global build, so I had to install Hydrogen OS, download the latest Oxygen OS, and update it locally.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] jonbelyo:
Thanks, this MSM for H2OS worked for me as well. I'm now booting

Had to pay $5 to download from mega as it exceeded the size limit and didn't want to wait 5 more hours before getting it. Would be great if someone could host it somewhere else.

My phone is KB2000 flashed with OOS11. Since the latest OTA update, it crashed three times in around 2 months, and the third time yesterday it wouldn't boot anymore. Tried to use MSM for OOS International and it went through but it didn't solve the issue.

Right now, i'm downloading the latest release from OxygenOS from OnePlus site but i'm afraid i'll get the same issues. I'll let you guys know.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] jonbelyo:
Well it was working before but it keeps crashing now even without having installed OxygenOS yet. Seems like a hardware issue for me. Good luck.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] BillGoss:
FYI, after unbricking my phone (KB2000) with the KB05AA MSM tool (11.0.7.9), I noticed that I had a notification that an update was available to 11.0.8.13 (lastest one at this point in time).

The link for the update (found in logcat after the update is downloaded) is: https://android.googleapis.com/packages/ota-api/package/f45d0124ea2ff3271bfb038eae7369d47cfa5b46.zip

I have a KB2007 from TMO, I bought it sim unlocked. The bootloader is locked. If I use the international MSM tool to flash the global firmware will it cause any issues? also I have no root and not interested in rooting my phone, although I will if I have to as long as if needed I can unroot and go back to stock. I'm just trying to find a way to dump the tmobile firmware and starting updating with the firmware from the official oneplus site. Also if I mess stuff up will the Tmobile unbrick MSM tool save me?

Any help/ lessons are greatly appreciated.

See the first page of the topic header.

If you have a new phone, then as mentioned above, only Hydrogen MSM will do.

There are links to it in the topic header, but I also duplicate it on the google drive. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-MwwMBiszDvAoCoqH1P5aZRaLvDFL_66/view?usp=sharing

After installing Hydrogen, update via local update to the version of Oxygen OS you need, according to the instructions on xda.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] Jan20202:
Thanks a lot! i've seen the post but didn't really pay attention to it.

Edit: Worked! :)
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] Jan20202:

[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] /life:
In short:

Download the firmware you need https://xdaforums.com/t/oneplus-8t-rom-ota-oxygen-os-repo-of-oxygen-os-builds.4193183/

Next, go to Phone Settings -> System -> System Update -> select the local update of the firmware that you downloaded.

After upgrading to Oxygen OS, I also recommend making wipe data in recovery.

My 8T is ddr5 also and I've had no issues using the MSM tool (and I've used it a fair bit!)
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] SamuelLeVentilateur:
Hi there !

Today I tried to install PixelExperience on my KB2004 but after some issues I got stuck in a bootloop and can't seem to get out. I'm trying to get MSM to work but I can't get past the "Waiting for device" step...

It shows as "Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM3)" but doesn't get recognized by MSM.

I tried :

- Holding vol up/down for 30s, then plug (using the official USB C to C from Oneplus)

- Using adb reboot edl (from recovery)

In MSM I have a line with COM 3 "Waiting for device" but can't get past it...

I tried everything several times without success.

Could someone help me please ?
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] lendawg:
Every time I turn phone off and hold volume up and down and plug it in to start the tool my phone just reboots. What am I doing wrong?
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] BillGoss:
Are you also holding the power button down? Because that will cause it to reboot.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] lendawg:
No
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] BillGoss:
Have you tried holding the volume buttons down and then connecting to the PC, even though the phone has booted?
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] lendawg:
Yes the first time I kept them held down and it just booted normally so after that I was letting go after I felt the phone vibrate.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] BillGoss:
I believe that you'll only get a connection to the MSM tool if the volume buttons are being held down.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] lendawg:
Yes I hold the buttons down, connect the power cable while I'm holding them down that's what I'm doing.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] radialblur:
To anyone getting "Automatic Detection of DDR failed" what fixed it for me was to use the supplied OnePlus USB-C to USB-C cable, as soon as I changed to it MSM worked perfectly on my 8T.

Also the dd command given doesn't work, you'll need to do:

dd if=/dev/block/bootdevice/by-name/persist of=/sdcard/persist.img

Hope that helps.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] ddaharu:
So you're all rooted with lpddr5 and no issues I'm glad. I should be getting mine soon and this is good to know.

And well basically i could do everything like normal, right?
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] BillGoss:
"Like normal" - yes, normal for an 8T. But an 8T is quite different from the simple partition structure older phones have. So, not like "normal" old phones.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] pratyush28:
Even mine is a ddr5 variant and it is manufactured after 03/21 yet I could use the normal unbrick tool so there's nothing to worry go for it.

Waiting for device​

[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] zzjea:
I tried about 20 times or more before success. Must have right drivers installed. If Windows 10, restart without signed drivers enabled. Try different USB ports on your PC. I was persistent because I had a new $750 device I had inadvertently bricked.

Unfortunately, my phone isn't bootlooping; it's booting straight to the QUALCOMM CrashDump Mode screen.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] zzjea:
That's where I was also. I am now fully restored and have the latest OOS 11.0.10.10 KB05AA. Keep trying. Because of the issues with this and the fact that OOS 11 is really great, I will stay with the OTA updates until they stop supporting it.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] BillGoss:
I suggested you have a look at that post because of the failed DDR detection, not because of bootloop.

To get out of CrashDump hold power+vol up. Then straight after hold power+vol up+vol dn which should get you into bootloader/fastboot.

You can then turn the phone off, hold vol up+vol dn and connect to PC running MSM.

If you wait too long after getting out of CrashDump the phone will reboot - back to CrashDump.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] cheshyre:
Oh, thank you!

I was finally able to get back into fastboot, and from there managed to fastboot boot twrp.img

I'm back where I was 4 days ago (I need more time & spoons to deal with this), so maybe I can still pull out of this without having to completely start over from stock

So i'm coming from a pixel 3. Just received the ota for my 8t, took the OTA, and reinstalled magisk to the inactive slot. Did not go so well for me. (ota update was KB05AA). Is there a way to get me booted again using this tool without wiping data?

Thanks in advance.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] NotATreoFan:
MSM will full wipe the device. If there is a bootable TWRP or stock recovery with ADB enabled, you can run a command to change the active slot, and then you should boot up on the old OS build.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] -Michael_:
Thank you. Oddly enough i fastboot booted the previous magisk_patched image and am booted backup now.. getting off the qualcomm kernel crash dump screen was ... interesting.

I've managed to back up everything, going to try and just flash the original magisk patched image and see what happens. maybe "fastboot --set-active=a or b" ..

Im still a bit confused as to what the right way is to take an OTA on this phone at this point.

---------- Post added at 10:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:02 AM ----------

fastboot flashed my original magisk patched kernel. seems fine on slot b, however manager reports its not installed. which is weird. but hey i'll take it at this point.

And it rebooted into OOS. Bros, the happiness felt like a cool shower in the hottest summer day....
