OPX Bricked, can't flash new recovery. - OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I just bricked my OPX and I can't flash a new recovery because of "remote: dtb not found".
It won't boot normally either so there's nothing I can do.
Btw, I have unlocked my bootloader and fastboot is working.
Would appreciate advice!

Refer to this guide http://http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/general/guide-mega-unbrick-guide-hard-bricked-t3272108

Can't boot to recovery even after bootloader is unlocked

Bootloader is unlocked but after flashing the recovery with a custom one, the recovery doesn't boot. I tried flashing different recoveries but none of them boot up. However, everything else works, I can boot to fastboot mode and system as well. What might be the problem?

Cant update TWRP to 3.0.0 (Castor_windy version)

Hi Guys,
I've got a SGP511 WiFi only (castor_windy), with root access and an unlocked bootloader. but to install AOSP 7.1 I need to update my version of TWRP to 3.0.0.
I installed TWRP via TabZ2-lockeddualrecovery2.8.26 batch file and can access recovery but every time i select install look at my SD card and change to images and select the castor_winsy 3.0.0 image i dont get an option to install to recovery i only get kernel how do i resolve this ?
I have re flashed FW (KitKat) via flashtool loads of times
rooted
installed TabZ2-lockeddualrecovery2.8.26 batch file
and every time i get the same option.... cant flash to recovery or boot only kernel
i have attached a screenshot so that nobody thinks i am going mad
can you please help me thanks :fingers-crossed:
It's been a while since I used TWRP 2.8.XX...so no idea what's the issue there but I'd just flash TWRP recovery via fastboot. Worked for me without any problems :good:

Hi ... Is that using the ADB fastboot recovery TWRP.img?
I am on KitKat just wondering if that's why it won't work have you got to be on 6.01 ?
Well, actually it shouldn't matter on which Android version you are, but to have the latest boot.img and radio.img installed I'd flash the latest stock ROM available here on XDA which means by the way having TWRP 3.0.2.0 as well and after that you might be ready for AOSP 7.1
Just have look at kulvertti's thread in the "General" subforum. Since you have already intalled a custom recovery there shouldn't be any problems.

Hi @rcstar6696,
i had no problem flashing the boot.img that part was ok but when i went to flash the recovery it never seemed to work for me, in the terminal window in the SDK programme tools folder which is the same folder as the image i downloaded from your thread is in (Twrp-3.0.0-0-castor-windy.img and twrp_castor_windy.img) it said something about sizes but said it went ok tried to boot into recovery and it never worked
in the terminal window whilst my SGP511 was in fastboot mode i typed fastboot recovery Twrp-3.0.0-0-castor-windy.img is this is correct script or have i got this wrong ?
i am currently on Kitkat does this matter

One Plus X soft (?) bricked

Hi guys,
Before you say again a topic on a non bricked One Plus X, I would like to let you know that I've checked and try almost all of the tutorial I've seen on xda and one plus forum.
I was on CM14.1 with this ROM : https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-14-onyx-t3452150
Unfortunately, I made the 25-12-2016 update and it totally broke up the phone..
I download the OnePlus X OxygenOS 3.1.4 on the One Plus website. So I flash it on the stock recovery, it tells me "Install success" then I reboot and it stays on the bootlogo.
For information, I can't access the oem unlock menu if needed, but when I ask the oem device info it says unlocked. The phone is detected by the computer sometimes with unknown device and sometimes correctly with the qualcomm drivers..
I have a back up made from TWRP, I can access the device by the fastboot mode, it seems that all the operations written here worked but it doesn't install or even boot on TWRP..
Thanks for your help guys.

I'm not even using TWRP, since I can't boot on it.. But I tried to flash the twrp-3.0.2-2 from blue spark v41, after the installation via Flashboot, it doesn't boot up on the recovery..
So after flashing TWRP you use fastboot boot recovery.img and nothing happens?

If you did not unlocked bootloader properly then also you might face the problem...
to unlock bootloader: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/general/discussion-how-to-root-oneplus-x-t3242830
make sure you follow all the step. (If you didn't followed these steps then lock bootloader {fastboot oem lock} and unlock using this mathod, worked for me.)

So I don't have any idea on how make android back on my phone.
I just have access to Fastboot mode. No recovery, nothing else..

You should send it to RMA

Start by seeing if you can fastboot flash stock recovery from any 2.X.X OOS. Then fastboot flash twrp 3.0.2. If your on new bootloader meaning latest ROMs or OOS3 then you need to boot into 3.0.2 and from there you can flash IMG of twrp 3.0.3. Make sure you boot right back into recovery after flashing any twrp or it won't stick. This worked for me when I lost my recovery twice but always remember at your own risk. Not responsible if you make your phone into a paper weight.
Fix It!

Oneplus X stuck on boot logo after corrupt ROM install

I was flashing paranoid android 6.0.2 for my device. I downloaded the zip(from the official paranoid android website) and checked the md5 checksum, which did not match. However, like a total idiot, I flashed it nonetheless. On booting, the phone gets stuck on the boot logo. I tried booting into recovery(TWRP) and performing a factory reset to no avail. I redownloaded the flashable zip for Paranoid, successfully verified the md5 checksum and flashed it again, no avail. Restore a full backup from within TWRP, no avail. My phone still gets stuck on the bootlogo. I have looked all over every forum without any results. Please help me out? I would like to get it back to functional state and flash the rom again. As mentioned, I have access to my custom recovery and can connect to my device via fastboot. I am willing to give any other information you may need.
Thanks!

Yeah thats d problem, PA roms are only compatible with old lollipop bootloader, u said u were in oos3 which means u hv updated to ur bootloader to marshmallow.

Flash any 2.X.X ROM. One way is to fastboot flash old stock recovery and flash safest way I think. The other is to flash with twrp make sure after flashing the ROM to flash old twrp IMG after. Make sure you boot right back into twrp.

Assuming you're on OOS3 with TWRP for new bootloader,
- Boot into recovery
- Wipe everything except SD Card
- Flash OOS2 zip
- Boot into it
- Goto settings, unlock dev options, enable advanced reboot
- Then reboot to bootloader
- Flash twrp for old bootloader via fastboot, use this one https://dl.twrp.me/onyx/twrp-3.0.2-0-onyx.img
Done
-Now u hv sucessfully downgraded ur bootloader,flash PA or any supported roms
Used mega unbrick tool because I was unable to unlock bootloader and now I'm stuck at 1+ logo (powered by android disappears quickly), did you solve it?
edit: nevermind, adb sideload with stock OOS fixed it.
