[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] Dorakkaru:
Ah right, I guess I forgot to mention, entering fastbootd has the same result as entering recovery mode

"SMT Download Failed" screen, unlocked warning screen, then the screen goes black and doesn't reacts anymore until I turn the phone off

Edit: I was currently still flashing the OrangeFox Recovery since that worked fine before, I flashed the stock recovery and now can enter stock Recovery and Fastbootd, do I just flash all partitions from the Global rom through Fastbootd?

Edit2: I tried flashing the Global rom (OnePlus_8T_OxygenOS_15.O.25_Global_Fastboot_ROM) using the flash_all.bat in the zip but at some points I got a "Invalid sparse header magic", process still finished but I am still getting "SMT Download Failed" I am going to try get another rom

Edit3: I managed to use SMT Download Mode in MSMTool by disabling the "In Auto Line" option, it executed the Provisioning, and stopped right after with a "TID should not be 0" error, right after wiping ALL partitions, it only went into EDL mode, it took me some time, but I managed to write the partitions manually using the EDL program, tried writing the whole T-Mobile rom again (still using the EDL program) literally from scratch and returned to the same situation in my first post, I took the liberties of wiping it AGAIN and this time flashing the EU rom (i discovered that Param.bin is the file that holds the prjModel so I kept that single file from the T-Mobile rom), since the first MSM tool supposedly turns it into a EU unit, and still the same, "SMT Download Failed" error

When OrangeFox Recovery was functioning you could have tried to flash stock OOS zip via it or any custom ROM.
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] Dorakkaru:
I didn't want to wipe my device at that moment, I know it was a huge mistake and it would have been better to have a functioning but wiped device than a completely bricked one, but what was done was done

I have learned a lot of things on my way here, and discovered several steps on my way that could have gone better, but I didn't had the knowledge at the time

Even after switching the slot, I could have just flashed some stuff to the other slot enough to enter Fastboot again, and use the command to switch Active Partition Slots from Fastboot back into the working one
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] Rootk1t:
Dorakkaru​

Did you manage to revive your device?
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] Dorakkaru:
Actually yes, it turns out the param.bin from the ROMs are blank except for some strings (including the prjmodel ID), it seems that SMT flashing status is stored there as well as the Target ID MSMTool is looking for

I used the EDL Python program to flash the param.bin found in this thread and my phone finally got recognized by MSMTool, I managed to flash the original T-Mobile ROM through MSMTool and it booted!

From there I just used the same tools I used previously to turn it into an EU device to be able to unlock it easily, rooted it correctly this time and its working perfectly thanks to the backups of the modemst and persist I had

So as a suggestion, on top of keeping a backup of persist, modemst1 and modemst2, people should also advice to make a param.bin backup
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] BillGoss:
Modemst1 and modemst2 are both empty on the 8T. You can check this by taking the md5sum of them which will be b2d1236c286a3c0704224fe4105eca49

You can also create an empty file (mt2048) with the same size as these partitions using cat /dev/zero | dd of=mt2048 bs=1k count=2048 which will have the same md5sum of the modemst* ones.

I wonder whether mdm1m9kefs* might not be better partitions to back up.
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] Dorakkaru:
I didn't know they were always empty, I thought my dumps were bad, thankfully just before provisioning the flash chip it occurred to me to make a backup of the mdm1m9kefs* partitions

and just flashed the mdm1m9kefs1 and 2 (3 and 4 were empty), to their original partitions and modemst1 and 2 after being able to boot it again and recovered my IMEI
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] Rootk1t:
Is it firmware dependent? I mean, are the empty on all OOSes (11,12,13) or in a particular one?

I remember earlier all instructions advised to make backups of the Modemst1 and modemst2 partitions and keep in a safe place.
[OnePlus 8T Questions & Answers] BillGoss:
Here's what I found out (applicable to all versions) and what I now do:

What partitions need to be backed up in case you need to restore your IMEI id?

It used to be that the the EFS partitions were what you needed. But running the TWRP EFS backup on the 8T is useless.

The following table (CSV format) shows the partitions TWRP backs up, whether they are empty, and if they are updated as part of a full OTA (in which case they can't contain the IMEI id):

twrp group,partition,twrp name,OP name,empty?,in ota

EFS,sdf2,efs1,modemst1,y,n

EFS,sdf3,efs2,modemst2,y,n

EFS,sdf5,efsc,fsc,y,n

EFS,sdf4,efsg,fsg,y,n

modem,modem_a,modem,modem_a,n,y

modem,bluetooth_a,bluetooth,bluetooth_a,n,y

modem,dsp_a,dsp,dsp_a,n,y

So I've decided to backup the following:

sda2,persist

sda13,persist_bkp

sda6,param

sdf7,mdm1m9kefs1

sdf8,mdm1m9kefs2

Note, these are neither empty nor updated by an OTA. However, they do change over time.

Of these, only sda2,persist contains an IMEI id ("grep -a imei" finds it).

4. Do the Calibration by rest your Index / Thum on screenphone and press Next untill end (It will give ERRORS - IGNORE THE ERRORS)

5. Setting > Apps > System Apps > FingerprintUI , clear all Cache + data

6. Doing the same as "4"

7. Try again with your Fingerprint scan.

8. Try a few time !

9. DONE!!

-----------------------------

2. Khóa bootloader của bạn:

khóa nhấp nháy fastboot

3. Mở Bàn phím số điện thoại: *#9959#

[Red Magic 8 pro] GoneIQ:
Hi man.

Thanks for the detailed post. Unfortunately it didn't work on my device. I followed the whole thing

it goes back to either saying "loss of Calibration data" (and the lockscreen works)

or the famous "screen lock was already changed" and no screen lock or fingerprint working.
[Red Magic 8 pro] ZG_DEV:
Sad thing that it didn't work with you
[Red Magic 8 pro] kh.v:
Make sure you lock your bl after all these steps
[Red Magic 8 pro] GoneIQ:
I did and it's the same result.

I can set a screen lock now but no fingerprint or face unlcok.
[Red Magic 8 pro] kh.v:
It strange , because when you have passcode and it should work for the fingerprint also !!

Try all steps again !

But for this time, remove all passcode, and unlock your bootloader, then do the rest

Or

Try to re-calibrate your fingerprint , can find it online !

Hope this help you out

[Google Pixel 3 Questions & Answers] endermaster139:
I've got a bit of an interesting issue with trying to root my pixel 3. After flashing a boot.img patched with magisk (see attached, if it helps), my phone boots up properly but then Pixel Launcher starts repeatedly crashing and soon causes the phone to reboot into the "Cannot load Android System. Your data may be corrupt" mode. However, everything gets fixed by flashing the stock boot.img again.

I got logcats of both the crashing system and the okay stock system -- see https://gist.github.com/ralismark/953be463a6e1825871fd34fc5236a748. It seems to be from a bunch of Permission Denial exceptions causing the pixel launcher to crash, eventually triggering rescue party with FACTORY_RESET. I have no idea why this is the case though.

Other notes:

I've already got a bunch of data on the phone, I'm not installing from a clean factory reset

I had previously rooted my phone via magisk on android 11, but ended up upgrading via Android's own system updater. Maybe there's some remnants of magisk still around messing with things?

I had also done a TWRP backup + restore (since I was testing some stuff with a clean install). I noticed this interfered with some apps (e.g. I had to log back into whatsapp), not really sure if related though.

Versions:

OS: stock factory image -- 12.0.0 (SP1A.210812.016.C2, Jun 2022) from https://developers.google.com/android/images#blueline.

Magisk app used to patch boot.img: 26.1 (26100)
