If you just fastboot boot orangefox you can decrypt your Android 12 custom ROM and flash the OOS firmware. That should work.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] parag0n1986:
Back on OOS12 FW again. I am just waiting for my phone to finish restoring and I'll test the splash screen theming. I did notice though, that when the screen locks while in OF, all touchscreen ability is gone. I can't swipe to unlock or anything. just have to hard reboot. That's without changing anything in settings at all splash still not staying themed either. Recovery log attached https://1drv.ms/u/s!AmBrhbf7jsVMg-RZUJCufnbmbMvuFQ
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Aelliaria:
I have bricked my phone completely after flashing this 😂 phone boots only In to fastboot mode but in fastboot mode doesn't recognize any fastboot command, and until now I even get errors using MSM tool haha so I have something to do this weekend 😜
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] parag0n1986:
You need to unlock bootloader before you can flash anything
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Wishmasterflo:
Ohh OK thats intressting. Hmmm.....I wonder why. I will test that out on my side next week.

Anytime my friend! Here's the screen shot of it sends
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] MirageSteezyBoi:
The Swipe to unlock and power menu are not touch responsive.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] parag0n1986:
Same here. I mentioned it earlier as well. I think he's working on it
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Wishmasterflo:
Yes I will check on that.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Wishmasterflo:
Yes Swipe to unlock is not working by some reason on the Oneplus 8t (I assume it is working on the 9r) ??

but Power meny is working correctly for me, only swipe to unlock does not work.

Have to check that. I guess I know what is causing that, have just to check how to get it fixed on the Oneplus 8t.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Aelliaria:
Phone is alive again, i'm now on OOS12 C21, and installed orange fox and all works well.

Now i'm waiting for Cdroid to switch to OOS12 firmware or Nameless with a normal installation procedure haha
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] parag0n1986:
Nameless is on OOS12 firmware, so your should be able to just flash if you're already on OOS12 firmware
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Aelliaria:
Yeah therfore i said; a normal installation procedure ;)
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] parag0n1986:
I see. Sorry for the misunderstanding. lol! Glad you got your phone working again though!
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Klusio19:
Btw this ROM (Nameless AOSP) is so freaking smooth and amazing. Just flashed it few days ago. I recommend it hard to anyone else wondering what ROM to try out!
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] parag0n1986:
Agreed. Using EvolutionX ATM, but Nameless is amazing as well
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Wishmasterflo:
I use Project Zephyrus now which is really great as well.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] parag0n1986:
Most definitely a solid ROM as well! Great battery life when I was using it
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Klusio19:
Have you used another custom ROM based on Android 12 also? And if yes, can you compare in one-two words, which was in our opinion the best? I'm on Nameless AOSP now.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Klusio19:
Have you used another custom ROM based on Android 12 also? And if yes, can you compare in one-two words, which was in our opinion the best? I'm on Nameless AOSP now.

(Same question as below, just want to know many opinions :D )
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] parag0n1986:
AFAIK only EvolutionX and nameless are using OOS 12 blobs, so out of the two, I have been going with evolution X just because there's a little more customization, it depends on what you're looking for. Nameless is very great as well though. For OOS 11 firmware Android 12 base, I was using nameless the most. I've tried pretty much everyone ROM out there for this phone though lol! Out of all of them, project zephyrus, nameless, derpfest (dead now) and evolution X are my favorites. I would have to say in my experience project zephyrus had the best battery life out of all of them though on the oos 11 firmware
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Klusio19:
Thank you for your extensive opinion! I actually forget about the firmware itself, pretty interesting only (most likely) 2 ROMs use OOS12 firmware. Happy flashing in future 😁
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Senioshuh:
Hello everyone, I'm new to this business, could you tell me how to flash in two slots?)
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Wishmasterflo:
Hello!

You mean to get OOS on both slots or?

Which OOS are you on now, OOS11 or OOS12 and what are your plans?`

Do you want to stay on OOS, or flash any custom ROM?
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Drymarchon:
I'm having the same issues with the touchscreen, it seems its happening while in the recovery in general.

edit - realized i probably should have specified, I'm using an 8t.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Wishmasterflo:
Yes some things like unlocking etc are not working right now on 8t, but most of the touch things should work, at least for me.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] parag0n1986:
Everything else works. I just turned up the time for it to lock itself to max so it doesn't happen while I use it lol
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] parag0n1986:
No problem! Yeah as far as I know only two right now use OOS 12 blobs. I heard zephyrus is going to soon. I'm sure the rest will follow eventually.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] dahawthorne:
@Wishmasterflo

I was keen to get OF working (as well as my Oneplus 8T camera) so I flashed OxygenOS C.21 Android 12.1. OF works great, and remains as permanent recovery between reboots. Excellent - thank you.

This morning I spotted a "new" version of OF, but confusingly it was identical in name and byte count to the previous OF v3 which I downloaded on 29th July. I thought perhaps the new version might have fixed the swipe-to-unlock, but I'm afraid it hasn't.

Still, no doubt you'll be working on it, and it's not a big deal. ADB can release it without any trouble.

Thanks for getting OF on to my 8T - much appreciated.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Wishmasterflo:
Hello!

Yes, I had rebuilt and re-uploaded the V3 since I recognized that I had missed to include some new TWRP 12.1 change to Orangefox.

The swipe to unlock issue seems to be something else than I thought, so I have to check if I can find out what is causing this since it works on the Android 11 Version of OrangeFox.

Would be good to know if that issue is only happening on the Oneplus 8t or on the 9r as well.

EDIT: I played around with that issue a bit more. So whats happening seems to be that the whole Orangefox is just freezing and not reacting to any input or anything as soon as the screen lock kicks in.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Senioshuh:
Hi!

Now I use oos 12 and I want to flash custom ROM)
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Wishmasterflo:
Which custom ROM you want to flash?

You have to check if the ROM you want to flash is based on OOS11 or on OOS12 and have that OOS on both slots before flashing the custom ROM.

So the best thing is to check out the custom ROM installation instructions to check which OOS you need and how to get that flashed as that could especially with ROMs based on OOS12 now depend a bit from ROM to ROM.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] mattwheat:
hello ive just unlocked my bootloader im on 8T kb2007 tmobile version im new to all this flash to both rom slots and do you have oos 11 or 12 installed in both rom slots, etc, etc. how do i determine what i have in both rom slots and i would love to install this OF recovery what are the proper fastboot commands to do that? im just not familiar with flashing seperate rom slots ive been a google nexus and pixel nerd from the nexus 4, nexus 6, 6p, google pixel xl to the pixel 4 xl so all ive know for the past 8 years is google nexus or pixel thanks for the help in advanced
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Wishmasterflo:
What are you running on your phone now, OOS11 or OOS12 and do you want to flash a custom ROM or what are your plans?

Then it depends on what custom ROM you want to flash. Some are still using OOS11 as base Firmware and some already OOS12 as Firmware.

Then you need to flash the latest OOS via local update twice to get it installed on both slots.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] mattwheat:
im on the latest stock android 12 tmobile sim unlocked and bootloader unlocked kb2007 i basically want a custom recovery so that if anything goes wrong with my software i have backup that can be restored i may possibly flash a rom or two one day
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] mattwheat:
Let me ask this. Is it as easy as just temporarily booting into TWRP or Orange Fox the flashing the Magisk.zip file in the customer recovery to get root?
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] parag0n1986:
Yes. You can fastboot boot the newest TWRP that decrypts a12 data and flash it more than likely
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] mattwheat:
LMAO. More than likely? LMAO. Thanks
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] parag0n1986:
The more than likely is assuming that if you boot it it boots... If it does you're good to go. If it doesn't boot no harm done just reboot to system and you're good nothing was flashed
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] mattwheat:
I guess what I was asking was,.....

If I fastboot boot O.F. or TWRP. Then once in recovery can I just flash the magisk zip and be rooted?
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Wishmasterflo:
Yes
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] mattwheat:
Thank you so much for the simplicity of your answer. That's all I needed.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] parag0n1986:
Yes
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Wishmasterflo:
Hi all! :)

I have uploaded a new OrangeFox Version V4 for Android 12 (based on OOS12 c21).

fox12.1 V4

- Updated with latest fox_12.1 changes

The download link is updated in the OP.

One issue right now is that as soon as the device screen turns off or it enters the lockscreen after inactivity time in Orangefox it seems that the whole recovery is freezing!

So perhaps a good idea to increase the timout for the lockscreen in Orangefox.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Okazakee:
Adb sideload is hanging in starting state :(
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Wishmasterflo:
Oh yes I see. Strange. Not sure right now what is causing that.

I took a look at this log now:

Starting ADB sideload feature...

I:Cannot find file /sys/class/android_usb/android0/idVendor

I:Cannot find file /sys/class/android_usb/android0/idProduct

Not sure why these are missing now since it worked before.

I will check on that later today.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] parag0n1986:
Does data back up and restore work? Anyone tested on custom ROM? I will gladly do so. Just curious if Data works or not before I even try lol
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Wishmasterflo:
I have not tried data Backup/restore yet.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] pandimohan:
Please give support for OnePlus 8, will this work on OnePlus 8 ?
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Wishmasterflo:
No only for Oneplus 8t and 9r right now!
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Wishmasterflo:
Are you on OOS12 as Base?

I wonder if it is something with the OOS12 Firmware which has broken ADB sideload now since I just tried with the V3 of Orangefox and got the same issue, and it weas working before when I was on OOS11 Firmware.

I updated my phone to OOS12 Firmware yesterday due to new ROM Update which is based now on OOS12.

Have to check further how to get this solved now.

EDIT: OK I guess I found the issue. Need to update some files in the device tree to work with OOS12 base.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] dahawthorne:
I have a Fox backup timed at 07:28 on 2nd August, and I'm pretty sure that this was my final backup of crDroid 12 before I switched to OOS 12 C.21. I looks fine, the backup ran perfectly across all partitions, but I have not tried a restore (yet...). So I can half answer your question with "yes"... :)

(Just FYI, I switched only because crDroid uses a single camera and I wanted all of them, and the hardware do-not-disturb switch didn't work. Stock OOS 12 C.33 has returned all of these, though I'm still seeing bugs - clearing recents doesn't always work, and I have to re-deny notification permissions for a few apps after reboot.)

Edit: I've just temporarily booted OrangeFox v4 and again the backup has run perfectly, though this is on stock OOS C.31. Thanks again, Wishmasterflo.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Okazakee:

Still cannot set splashscreen in any way :(
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Wishmasterflo:
No exactly that is not working. I have not even tried to fix that.

Was trying to get some other stuff fixed, and there seems still some issues with USB OTG now and I am also trying to get decryption on Android 13 working etc.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Frenzied Death:
What to do if my recovery froze, because of the inactivity (I kinda forgot about it)?

Edit: found the solution, no help needed (fixed by doing "adb reboot bootloader")
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Wishmasterflo:
adb is still working so you can just connect the phone to a Computer and do a adb reboot bootloader or adb reboot recovery.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Frenzied Death:
It's failing to make a backup no matter if on USB OTG or Internal Storage

The failing part of the backup (attached the full log if that isn't it):

I:Error adding file '/data/nandswap/8DjtiBAAAAwlQ8J9WMm1hS1p0iDj14j2' to '/usbstorage/Fox/BACKUPS/3ea32533/2022-01-01--00-43-07/data.f2fs.win002'

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1GFaFOHNEamv68jfc-bzWfdoSkWPqXSw7/view?usp=sharing

I looked up and this could be a solution (but it was for TWRP and for MIUI):

typing in terminal "rm /data/extm -Rf"
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Frenzied Death:
It seems that it cannot mount storage maybe because I don't have the latest firmware, but the problem is that the oxygen updater doesn't let me install the latest firmware, because it fails. So should I flash the android 11 version of orangefox even though I technically have android 12 and it will let me format data, and remove encryption?
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Wishmasterflo:
Which ROM are you on now, and is that using OOS11 or OOS12 as base Firmware?
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Frenzied Death:
In the oxygen updater: Android 12, OxygenOS version: KB2003_11_C.20

but in the updater it says: OxygenOS 12.1 | Android 12 | KB2003_11_C.20
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Wishmasterflo:
OK got it. But c20 is not the latest one. The latest one now is C33.

No, so for your OOS12 which have have installed you need to use the fox_12.1 Version, otherwise it can not decrypt data in recovery.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Frenzied Death:
The C33 when I try to install it, it's saying verification failed and when I try to force it through System Update app, the update fails. So I should do it through fastboot somehow?

As for the orangefox I have the fox_12.1 , but it still says unable to mount storage. Sending the log file, but it doesn't seem to be useful.

Hello. congratulations for this great job. I've had a oneplus for a long time and it's driving me crazy. I downgraded from A12 to A11. I have unlocked the bootloader, I have rooted, all this to be able to install a photo and video recovery application, and it does not work because apparently the device memory is encrypted. with this twrp on a11 it could be decrypted. is it complex? i am used to xiaomi and oneplus is torture for me. Thank you
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Wishmasterflo:
Hello!

Yes with Orangefox for Android 11 and lower you are able to decrypt data if you are on Android 11.

Then you can Backup your data with it.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Wishmasterflo:
Regarding the verification failed. Take a look here and try to change that parameter in the file.

Ohh yes USB MTP is broken in this OrangeFox build now. I am trying to fix this today or tomorrow!

Regarding Backup, take a look at this Post from the TWRP thread.

I assume that most of that also applies for Orangefox as it is based on TWRP.

Do you get much sleep...? :)

I've temporarily booted v6 and, following @BillGoss instructions (switch on airplane mode) taken a complete 18GB backup (probably far too much, but I've still got well over 100GB to play with). It went through absolutely fine.

OOS12.1 C.33, Magisk 25.2.

Thank you for this excellent recovery.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Klusio19:
Currently on Project Zephyrus 12.8.0 (based on OOS12 firmware, C.33 firmware itself on the device), rooted with Magisk 25.2 with some modules, flashed latest Fox v6 build, successfully backed up Data, Boot, DTBO, Super. Took 27GB, 0 problems at all. Gonna swap to some another OOS12 based custom ROM, and then I'll try to restore this backup, will report later how it went :D

And you use the Orangefox 12.1 Version?

That is able to decrypt data on Android 12 and Android 13

So not sure what happened when it is not working for you anymore now.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Hateware:
Hi, can you explain the exact procedure to flash?

I'm not new in flashing ROMs but I only can get working Zephyrus based on OOS11, the GitHub beta version, Sourceforce version (based on OOS12) doesn't want to know to boot.
[OnePlus 8T ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries, & Other Deve] Wishmasterflo:
Are you on OOS12 FW on both slots when doing this?

Then it should just work to boot Orangefox 12.1 and flash or adb sideload the ROM.
