Tried it and also didn't work. It was not possible to flash the stock firmware. As a result, I flashed it through an internal update in the phone settings.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] gregsoir:
what is the safest way to go back to stock recovery? should I just flash stock OOS .zip from the latest beta TWRP? don't want to get stuck on bootloop.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Mchlbenner51:
I believe you can flash it through twrp but I would fastboot it on PC.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] gregsoir:
will fastboot flash erase all the data?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Mchlbenner51:
Are just flashing the stock recovery if so no data whipes for that.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] gregsoir:
does anybody have 10.0.8.8 IN11BA stock recovery .img file and could upload it?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
If you're on 8.8 OOS you can pull it yourself using payload dumper. It's good practice to be able to obtain it yourself.

My root guide in guides and discussion can show you exactly how...

Then just flash it in fastboot.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] enjoy_life:
Yesterday tried to restore my OOS backup after tinkering with a custom ROM. There were no errors when I took the backup. Data restored fine without errors too, but the system didn't boot afterwards, it was boot looping. I did a wipe - factory reset before restoring. Lost about two hours trying to restore the backup so that it would boot and all was in vain. So I had to MSM eventually 🙂 I used beta 7 for backing up and restoring.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dyval:
Just curious. Did you follow the instructions on the 2nd post?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] enjoy_life:
Of course. I removed the pin so that the system was unencrypted before backing it up. Then I did a factory reset before restoring.

I have a backup phone (Samsung A5 2017), which also has a TWRP installed. I backed up that phone and restored it over a dozen of times, so I'm kinda familiar with the process.

In this case I could eventually still install a custom ROM on a clean system and it would boot and work fine. However, the restored OOS backup never boots.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] BillGoss:
The process as explained in post #2, when switching ROMs, is to do a format of /data, not a factory reset.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] enjoy_life:
I did a format too (where it says type "yes" to continue). As I said, I tried to restore the backup over two hours multiple times, on a clean/wiped/completely formatted system. It does restore the backup without errors, but it never boots. I could still install a custom ROM though and it booted just fine.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] mirdaVG:
Same problem here, but with custom ROM.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] BillGoss:
When you backed up OOS, what partitions did you backup, other than data?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] enjoy_life:
I backed up all partitions, except "persist" and "super partition". When restoring, I tried to restore all of them and also restored "data" only. It didn't make any difference.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
Historically was a format required?

I mean it's going to nuke the device anyway?

I'll be honest I never bothered with Nand back ups but to me it sort of defeats the object if you need to wipe prior to a restore?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] BillGoss:
On my 8T, I backup data, boot, dtbo, and super. And then restore all non-data ones back to the same slot that they were on originally.

I don't back up any other partitions.

By backing up super you essentially back up system, system_ext, odm, product, and vendor. I assume it's the same on the 8/Pro.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] enjoy_life:
Alright, I wasn't aware I should have backed up 'super' as well. Anyway, it took too much time for me to get everything back on track yesterday, so I won't be doing further experiments for the time being.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] cityneversleepz:
In wipe, advanced wipe, I don't see an option for system wipe. Is that intentional or am I settng up wrong?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Lossyx:
Intentional.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] cityneversleepz:
Thanks for reply. I see some members flashing custom roms; are they doing that without wiping the system partition first?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Lossyx:
Yes. The old days where wiping system is necessary is no more because the partitions inside super partition will automatically be destroyed and recreated when flashing.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] cityneversleepz:
Well it finally all makes sense now! Thanks so much.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] thattechguy_69:
I am trying to flash GAPPS stock because I wanna replace LineageOS apps but I can't change System Partition on wipe even though I checked it. I need help.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] jamescable:
What do you mean change system partitions? Flashing gapps is just flash and reboot, you don't need to mess with anything to flash them
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] thattechguy_69:
Sorry let me rephrase that, I am trying to flash gApps stock to replace lineage os stock apps on TWRP but Everytime I do it gives me error 70, and I did some research and it says that I have to resize system and my problem is that system does not show up in WIPE and when I go to mount, my system is checked but I cannot check system_ext. How can I fix this?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] jamescable:
Ah, then your gapps package is too big, not enough storage in system for it. Flash either opengapps pico or mindthegapps by lineage
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] thattechguy_69:
I know this works but my point was to flash GAPPS Stock to replace LineageOS System apps. So I need to resize system on wipe, but system does not show up on wipe, only dalvik cache, vendor and etc, and I checked system on mount and I see another one called system_ext which I cannot check. Thanks for helping tho.

My Wipe looks like this but in English: No system at all
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Tilde88:
Not trying to be rude, but you need to rethink what you are doing, and understand that you have already been given the correct information.

So take a step back. Think about partitions. Do you know how they are structured and are formed? They file you are trying to fit has to go IN the system partition, which contains the OS and all the other things the device uses to actually run what you see on the screen (everything). It (the system partition) has a limited size, as it is pre-made. It also cannot be re-sized, as that would change the signature, and this is SAR (system-as-root, as will all A11+ devices). you cannot modify the system partition, as you will BREAK the system partition.

Then, and again apologies for this, you said something quite bad... You asked about formatting the system partition, so you can fit your file. The problem is, if you delete the system partition, you can't boot. No, you cannot just re-flash system, and, even if you could, it would replace the partition you wrote for gapps, as this all works a one IMAGE, not a file-based system you might be thinking of.

So stop wasting your time, it will not work. You MUST choose a smaller package. Listen when people say something, we are not just trying to shrug you off, but 95% of the people do the same ****, and we don't want to repeat after years and years of not only learning and knowing the stuff, but even from telling people and expecting them to listen/learn.

So, no, you can't do it.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] thattechguy_69:
oh sorry for wasting your time. sorry about that.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] jac0b:
Every time I try to flash an OTA on 8 Pro I get an error. I believe it's error: 1
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] gaww:
How do you flash - settings or oxygen update?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] jac0b:
In TWRP, I downloaded the file via oxygen update. If I use the local upgrade it wipe my data.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] gaww:
Local upgrade should not wipe data unless you are coming from beta to stable.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] jac0b:
I am coming from beta to stable.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] gaww:
Yeah - that always wipes everything.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] jackreaper:
As i was unable to use payment app like Gpay,bank apps etc I unrooted removed twrp and locked bootloader ....Is there any way I could flash stable TWRP thjough fastboot and then root ....and I am not facing any issues on OOS 11.0.9.9 update as some customers of OP 8 are facing with payment apps.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dlads:
I have Evo X installed and twrp and my gpay works fine.

Depending on the OS you have installed I'd say make a post in there and go from there.

If it's OOS then try the universal Magisk hide fix and that should do it. Not had to do this myself as it was included in Evo X.

Then once working you can install TWRP.

In that order.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] jackreaper:
thank you for your time.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] jac0b:
I used the Keep Data app from the below thread. I was able to switch from beta to stable and no data was wiped.

I assume it won't work on the 8T, correct?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Mchlbenner51:

The file name shows b8, but TWRP reports 3.52_11-0 after flashing, instead of 3.52_11-b8 as I expected. Is this intentional, a mistake in the reported version number, or was the wrong version uploaded?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dyval:
I guess just incorrect filename. Should be fine.

[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Sneakdovi:
Hi, thank for your work.

I was wondering whether it is possible to backup OOS11 with 11.0.9.9 (with all settings and apps) and try a different ROM (like EvolutionX) and go back to OOS11 again in case something doesn't work.

Can u answer this?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] dyval:
Bro have you tried using the latest TWRP update? Thanks
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Kris Chen:
Does it mean that we can uninstall it from magisk manager and return stock recovery ?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Lycidias:
No but you could take a backup of your stock recovery and replace the twrp image inside the zip. Then flash again.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Sneakdovi:
Has anyone managed to perform a restore with this TWRP with no issues?
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] jamescable:
Yes, I tried to flash latest aicp over aicp, no success. I'm on slot b, rebooted to twrp, flashed latest and hit with the usual twrp device loop immediately after swiping the flash button
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] musicman5844:
Device op8pro, I've tried every twrp in your list on filehost, not one of them will flash a rom , I can flash a img file like los recovery.img but no roms even twrp beta 7 magisk and magisk twrp beta 8 will not flash a rom when you slide the slider a bunch of red warning writing about 4 lines worth then just brings back up main screen.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Kris Chen:
Well, this twrp is unmature actually. What issue I had:

1).formatting data and reboot into twrp. data partition cannot be mounted;

2).Cannot flash the rom package by payload.bin within ROM.zip file;

I just can redo all installation process to recover my ROM.

Aicp twrp logs from twrp - Google Drive

drive.google.com
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] d3viou5:
You can't flash a zip with payload.bin in it, you have to extract it using a payload dumper. Even then, unless you create your own installation script TWRP won't know what to do with the extracted contents anyway.

Most current A11 ROMs aren't packages to be flashed with this version of TWRP or any other version of TWRP.

Edit: At least for the 8pro....
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] jamescable:
Not technically true. RR on a10 is built with payload and it flashes fine in the A10 twrp. All ROMs are payload now and they flash fine on other devices and android 10
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] d3viou5:
I stand corrected, though I have yet to see a A11 rom in the OP8Pro forum that can be flashed with this, which is the main reason I've held off, though I have tried backup and restore on this version of TWRP.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] musicman5844:
This is not mounting system product data and so on on any Rom basically it doesn't work at all unless you use it from stock to custom if your already on custom it will not mount the proper partitions to flash tried to update aicp to our latest build it will not work will not work on havoc will work on pixel experience
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] chrcol:
Hi, the android filehost says TWRP is only for standard one plus 8 not the one plus 8 pro, where are the one plus 8 pro twrp files? thanks.

Also is the latest twrp working on android 10 or is it android 11 only?

Hello, I recently got the oneplus IN2015. After rooting it I tried to flash latest twrp via Magisk. It's a no go. So I'm wondering if it's a magisk issue or something else. Can someone point me in the right direction? *Edit - the issue was my end. I was able to flash via Magisk
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] FreshlyBaked 420:
That's for OOS10 yes
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] osm0sis:
Looks like you tried to use Magisk's "Select and Patch a File" feature on a TWRP img/zip. You can't flash TWRP like that...

To flash TWRP via Magisk you need to use the TWRP Installer zip and flash it like a Module using "Install from storage" in the Modules page.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] scorpio76r:
You are correct. That is what I recently discovered after posting. Thanks for getting back. It's always cool to hear from you.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Philz69:
I have not tried every single version, but beta 7 and beta 8 do not allow me to flash a ROM.

It instantly fails no matter what rom i'm trying to flash.

( I was on A11 and am trying to flash A11 roms ).

Is this a known issue?

Side note:

I can flash Lineage using their recovery without any issues.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] RodiNet7601:
Every ROM as is specific way to be flashed into the phone (thats why instructions are there for), not directly trough recovery. That I know, only Pixel Experience A11 installs direct from recovery. Others trough sideload or specific recovery/ROM installer.
[OnePlus 8 / 8 Pro & 8T Cross Device Development] Philz69:
That is actually false.

LineageOS, EvoX and AOSP extended all mention using TWRP in their instructions.

It instantly fails both through sideloading ( as instructed by their respective guides ) and through flashing from storage ( Explicitely supported by AOSP Extended ).

To be clear I have tested both scenarios for those three roms.

Yeah, but those ROMs aren't built with a Meta-inf. Fastboot only is just a zip with the .img files. Roms with a meta folder are flashable in twrp.
