[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] Stratoast:
Hey Bill, I would like to ask would this method still works if USB debugging is disabled? (I suspect it is as when I do ./adb devices it no longer detects my 8T)

I'd like to kindly ask for your opinion on how I should go about fixing the boot loop.

I have a Oneplus 8T (KB2003) which is EU ver is not mistaken. I tried rooting it today with the TWRP + Magisk method.

I am using a Mac (do have access Windows PC) user Homebrew to install android platform tools and started:

Enable USB debugging

Toggle on OEM Unlock

Unlocked bootloader

Flashed TWRP recovery

Terminal showed it was done and my device began to boot into like a new phone state where you go through all the setup.

The guide I followed said the next step was do to ./fastboot reboot I was not sure if I had to do this after I completed my phone setup or not.

I tried to do so, but terminal didn't seem to detect my device so I unplugged and replugged the cable (which I think might have caused the boot loop?)

From then my 8T started bootlooping showing me the OnePlus logo and occasionally I would get to a menu with:

Language Selector: English, Chinese etc

Power off, Reboot, Format data.

After selecting the language I would get "system error, after select language, please select Online update(keep data) to recovery system, thanks!"

it didn't matter what I chose it would still boot loop after the selection. Plus I did select format data which might have removed the TWRP flash?

currently I can still access Fastboot mode but I'm not sure if I can flash anything as terminal doesn't detect my 8T.

Sorry for the long reply. Really would like some help as I am essentially locked out of all my financial apps and important services the moment. (Yes, I am dumb)

Tried to use the tool but I'm stuck in the Sahara Error.

Tried the tip in the #1 post and many other approachs but nothing works. The device is detected, has the Qualcom driver and tried in 2 ports/cables but no success. Any other way to make it work?

I just want to go back to OOS(A13) from Pixel Experience(A13)
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] Rootk1t:
Instruction post you refer to is obsolete as it dates back to 2015.

It points to SuperSU and unknown TWRP version for unknown smartphone model.

It will not work for 8T, so it's not surprising you ran into problems if you followed this guide.

I suggest reading the proper unlocking guides.

Console commands for procedure shoulnd be the same on Win and Mac.

For mac you run them starting with ./

Hi, i tri to downgrade mi oneplus 8t ( KB2003 ) with the local install but when I restarted, it didn't want to turn on my cell phone anymore, it won't let me enter the bootloader, it doesn't load either, what happened? Is there a way to revive my 8T?
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] Rootk1t:
Restore via MSM tool, see 1st post.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] gustavo.flz:
Thanks for answer me.

[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] Rootk1t:
You can. It usually works good on KB2000.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] datonedude:
Does this exist for KB2003 by any chance? I cannot seem to find it on the communityservers and have tried the regular MSM tool for fastboot access, but it doesn't recognize my connected oneplus 8t
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] BillGoss:
Use KB05BA
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] datonedude:
Hello, I have flashed a recovery to the wrong slot (A/B issue) and all my partitions (except for a running recovery) are gone. Does anyone know how to restore them? I have tried the MSM tool on my desktop and laptop already and it doesn't seem to recognize my device. Any pointers to anywhere would be much appreciated. Sending much love from Germany to my fellow OP-enthusiasts.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] datonedude:
Thanks!
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] BillGoss:
I have found that it's not unusual to need to reinstall the Qualcomm driver for the MSM tool when things go wrong. Check Device Manager to see if it shows up under "Ports (COM & LPT)" and update the driver.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] datonedude:
I've done that, I will try doing it again though. Thx for sharing your experiences!

[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] Flounderist:
Hi! I think I am in the same situation as yours as I am dealing with an OP 8T that doesn't react to any button combo, it charges fine but no edl at all even shorting the pins or using an hydra v2 cable. Did you sorted somehow?
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] dlb4all:
I mean i didnt even have charging . it was just an expensive shinny break . i also made an edl cable but no dice . since i was desperate i took it to some guy that just repair phones in my town . i was sure he couldnt fix it but 2 hours and 10$ later my phone was working again . he never told me what he did !!
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] Flounderist:
Fantastic! We still have hope then :D

Edit: could you be able to find what method/tool that guy followed to fix it?
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] dlb4all:
yeah its fixable but the guy didnt tell me how :) said its a secret , im still fairly certain its some method that involves edl and test point tho .

just take it to a capable repair shop if you ask me

I have kb2003 and i used eu version everthing done correctly download successful but my phone is stuck at oneplus logo boot loop.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] Rootk1t:
Restore it with MSM or try to change slots if the problem occured after update.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] croltor:
hey bro,

its 2023 and its not working for me.

I already tried it several times and all it does is, reboots to black screen and when I press and hold the power button it shows 'power off' and 'restart' optrions.

is there any other way to fix this.

what happened was, when the device was fully functional. I just restarted the phone and it stuck in bootloop.

NOTE THAT THE DEVICE WAS IN STOCK ROM WITH BOOTLOADER LOCKED, SO WASNT ABLE TO DO FLASHING

Let me know if you know any other way

thanks!!
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] croltor:
i hope oneplus solves this issue of boot looping, its so frustrating
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] Ziad Max:
Greetings,

Weird Story: My phone was dropped in sea (salt water) then it shuts down.

Screen not showing anything, but the phone vibrates when using button sequences.

after some testing, I managed to flashed it with MSM download tool and connected it to a display through type c and it was working, the display showed the welcome screen you get when you start a new phone.

Today morning, the display actually worked, but the device does not boot to rom or recovery. Just Fastboot and Crashdump mode.

My device was manufactured in April, I flashed all the versions including the Chinese one, and it keeps leading me to the crash dump mode.

Anything I am missing?
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] Some_Random_Username:
I'm afraid that the salted water might have permanently damaged your phone, you'll likely need a motherboard replacement.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] Ziad Max:
Even if the device actually booted to the Android welcome screen?

I do believe that it would work though.

Note that the phone is actually water resistant, even if it is not certified
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] Some_Random_Username:
The fact that your device turned off by itself after having been in salted water makes me strongly believe it has been damaged. I think it's not the first time I see such a situation where a device dies, can be flashed by MSM yet dies again due to hardware defect.

I'm pretty sure that a service centre opening your device would notice water indicators have been triggered.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] Ziad Max:
Thanks alot, I don't know why I feeling hopful about it xD

I am from Egypt, and we don't have service centers, OnePlus is not officially available in Egypt.

So I will be going to a good repair shop and see if there is hope.

Want to ask, does it differ if device manager recognized it as 900E instead of 9008 ?
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] Some_Random_Username:
I think 900E is diagnostics mode, but MSM tool requires to be in 9008 mode for flash to be performed.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] Ziad Max:
It flashed on 900E here :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

and ended with download succeeded
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] Some_Random_Username:
Flashing being successful with 900E is news to me, but hey that's good to know I guess :ROFLMAO:
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] Ziad Max:
I changed the display, and the device booted by itself and did not even show the Crushdump mode once. I guess the phone detected the display failure as a diagnostics mode
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] Sucedaneo:
Weird question, coming from a custom ROM I see what MSM does and how it works, but I don't see anything related with the kernel. If I have a custom Kernel, MSM also revert my phone to the stock kernel? Should I do something special?
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] BillGoss:
MSM restores your phone COMPLETELY to stock OOS and will wipe all your data and relock the bootloader.

It's not a rom, it's a tool that does low-level (not via bootloader) flashing of partitions.
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] djrion:

[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] -Juff-:
Hey folks! Many years have passed since I had been active here, long gone are the days of rooting and custom ROMs. :'-) However, I think my OnePlus 8 Pro is broken (which is pretty annoying because I just did a Factory Reset from within the settings when the phone was still running 1 1/2 years ago and now getting back, I can't do the setup anymore...). My first problem that I'm encountering is that I can't fix the driver's exclamation mark in the device manager. I tired many manual drivers and also the automatic driver download+install, but this won't go away. I'm guessing the whole MsmDownloadTool won't work without the right driver, right? Any ideas? Is this a Windows 11 problem? Or could this be caused by USB C ports? Sorry if this is just a stupid mistake, but I couldn't find any solution to this yet. Thanks!

Edit: Just saw that I posted this in the OP8T thread... Whoops! Thought I'd leave the question though because the driver problem probably isn't specific to the 8T.

Can someone help me with this issue?? I tried to change my OnePlus 8T Chinese KB2000 from Color OS 13 that it came with to Oxygen OS 13, I used Fastboot Enhance method, and everything seemed to be progressing pretty well until It finished and the phone could no longer boot up, also it doesnt show that its charging when plugging it into the charger (despite of it having over 80% while doing the flashing process), it doesnt get detected anymore in PC, pressing button combinations volume up+down, volume up/down with power button, what can I do to solve this issue??
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] BillGoss:
I would use the MSM Tool in the first post to get phone on the latest available version (personally I prefer the EU version to the NA version even though I live in Australia). And then do a local update to the latest version (get the update from https://xdaforums.com/t/oneplus-8t-rom-ota-oxygen-os-repo-of-oxygen-os-builds.4193183/).

Hello there, i think i need a little bit of help there, short story, my 8T was never rooted, i had android 10 like 3 weeks ago, and i decided to update it, finally, after update, yesterday, i went to sleep, with 80% battery, i did not put the phone to charge, in the morning, completly dead, charging is doing nothing, connecting to the pc is doing nothing, installed the drivers, watched all of the device list, i manage to open the phone and disconnect every cable (thinking maybe something got shorted) still a big no, battery does have 8.5V, at this point, i don't really know what should i do, i also tried to unplug the battery, plug it back, press volume up and down and connecting to pc, to start the firehorse mode, still nothing, i never saw a qualcom bricked like this one. What should i try?
[OnePlus 8T Guides, News, & Discussion] Rootk1t:
1. 8T shipped with Android 11 from factory.

2. Battery has two cells for 2250mah each and is rated at 3.85 volts and usually charges up to 4.2-4.4V so it can't be 8.5V.

I bought a KB2000 hw that came with Indian software. I'm unable to use the tool with EU version. I'm going to try to downgrade using the Indian tool and then simply update with EU software. Anyone else got any luck with this situation ?

While using the EU tool i get Unsupported target H2 . Probably because it detects the phone hw is KB2000

LE : Seems using the Indian tool allowed me to flash the older Indian firmware. I'll try using local upgrade to move to EU firmware.

LE2 : Currently doing a local upgrade with the latest full EU firmware. Seems i achieved my purpose.

LE3 : The reason i wanted to switch to EU firmware was to get rid of cloud storage and red cable club apps and menu integration as they are India specific apps.

It would seem that the only hold up at this time is determining a method of changing a bit that is read that determines wether or not the customization menu shows the theme drop-down or not.
