Recovery TWRP has been lost - OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
Firstly, excuse my english...
I'm in OOS in version 2.1.3 (yea, old) with custom recovery and root. I have followed this guide : http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/general/discussion-how-to-root-oneplus-x-t3242830
I have recently decided to upgrade in OOS 3.x and suprised...... Impossible to boot on TWRP.

How my unlock has been lost ? My phone is yet rooted. SuperSu works correctly.
Can you tell me how it is possible to lost twrp ? I have never upgrade since my unlock.
And now, my only solution is to do a 'fastboot oem unlock' and lost my data ?
Thank you

Not sure whats going on there but easy way is to fastboot flash old stock recovery. Then install 3.1.3 with no problems. Rename file and delete .tar .

Your device bootloader is locked.
Why do you want to flash old TWRP.
To install OOS 3.1.3, you should better flash old OOS stock recovery.
But not sure it wil work.
Now, when you try to reboot recovery, on what recovery are you?
Always TWRP? None?
You should flash Oxygen one, so you can try to flash OOS 2.2.3 full rom zip to start.

Thanks for answers.
The issue is exactly that:
"Now, when you try to reboot recovery, on what recovery are you?"
I boot on stock recovery... oxygen recovery instead of twrp. Why?? How??
However I had flash my recovery with twrp last months ago and root my phone.
My problem is I do not want to lost my data... Indeed I can unlock again bootloader but all data will be lost.

How could you flash TWRP if your bootloader is locked? :-S
I don't think you ever get re-locked upon any update..
And yes, you probably have to unlock boot and lose all your user data.. Unless you don't have a backup handy of course :I

You can flash oos 3.1.1 through stock recovery no matter if your bootloader locked or unlocked.
Just download the full rom zip of oos 3.1.1 and place this zip in internal storage and flash with stock recovery. After installing oos3.1.1 you can backup your data and after that you have to go to the developer settings and allow the OEM Unlocking and now you can follow same procedure to unlock bootloader.

Attempted to root Nexus 9, Now boot looping

Hi,
I followed this article -> phandroid DOT com/2014/11/05/how-to-root-nexus-9/ (Sorry, new account, can't link) to the letter, and everything seemed to go well, until the last step where I ran "fastboot reboot" which returned "error: device not found" I thought nothing of this as there was a reboot option on the devices screen, so I rebooted, I get the google logo, followed by the four orbs, then it says "Optimising app x of 99" once this is done, its back to the orbs again and it just repeats.
I tried restoring to factory defaults from the recovery menu, that did nothing, then sometime after I noticed I actually cant turn the device off any more, if I hold the power button it turns off, but reboots instantly. I tried going through the steps again, but no luck, the only change was that I didn't have the error at the end, and the first Optimising dialogue said 104 apps, not 99, but all the rest afterwards have said 99.
I'm not sure what do do from here, any advice?
Here's my cmd output:

Try returning to stock and trying again. See method 2 of this, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=58956577

That root method is for the old 5.0 Android; it doesn't work anymore with 5.1.1. Go back to stock using jd1639's link, then run Chainfire's Auto-root and you should be good to go. Link is here: https://download.chainfire.eu/595/CF-Root/CF-Auto-Root/CF-Auto-Root-flounder-volantis-nexus9.zip. There's supposedly an update coming in the next week or so to fix the stagefright vulnerability, make sure you do NOT take it in case it does weird things that could cause you to lose root.
(I know it says Volantis and not flounder but the Nexus 9 is known by both names, just to keep things confusing)
Thanks guys, root is now all working
Had a strange way of getting there though, I went back to stock, then tried the auto root as mentioned, but I had the same problem again, so I re-flashed just the boot.img file from stock, powered up, and lo and behold, root working fine

Your better off doing the bootloader unlock, then flashing TWRP recovery, then flashing supersu. IMO using autoroot methods make no sense. You now have no recovery and if anything goes wrong you have to flash all of the factory images again. And what if you want to use a custom rom? I would highly recommend getting TWRP at http://twrp.me and flashing it. Then you can actually make full backups in case of disaster. Good luck!

Hey, to unlock bootloader you enable developer settings in android, check the "enable oem unlock" switch, boot the device into fastboot mode "adb reboot fastboot" and issue "fastboot oem unlock". This is assuming you have adb and fastboot in your path/working folder. Then, download the lastest twrp - flounder-2.8.7.0.img - and "fastboot flash recovery flounder-2.8.7.0.img". The flounder version of twrp works for both LTE and WIFI variants. If you need any more assistance just let me know.

You really need to read my friend. Twrp V41 is for OOS3. It even is written in the file name. And also many posts on Blu spark thread . So what you need to do now is download Rashr from playstore and flash OOS2 recovery. Or probably fastboot but it MUST be Oxygen OS lollipop recovery. Once this is completed you can flash MM update with this stock recovery. Once OOS3 is booted you may flash TWRP V41.

Thanks happened.
@Exodusche : I think you may have misunderstood something ; the filename of TWRP 3.0.2-2 is "twrp-3.0.2-2_blu_spark.v41-onyx_by-engstk.img", and thus nothing is said (as always) about the ROM installed on the phone. And this is for a good reason : Recovery is INDEPENDANT of the ROM installed (at the contrary of Kernel).
PS : I also encountered the same problem than Iilya123 when I tried installing TWRP 3.0.2-2 from Engstk. I had to reinstall from the TWRP app installed in my Temasek ROM the right proposed version, and from this new installed recovery, I flashed back the twrp-3.0.2-1_blu_spark...

This recovery is designed to work with the new bootloader that is updated when you install OOS3. Unless you did that first, the phone doesn't understand how to boot this version of TWRP.
This guy had a good guide for flashing custom Roms when your on 3.0.1 or 3.1.1 community builds.

Downgrading OnePlus X from 3.1.3 to 2.2.2

Hi,
After upgrading the device to 3.1.3 the device is draining very fast and I didn't like the new changes.
Can anyone please share steps to downgrade the device to 2.2.2 OS?
I think it's easy, but somebody pls CMIIW, just flash the official TWRP via fastboot (prior to v41), reboot to TWRP, wipe cache, data, system, dalvik, and flash the OOS 2.2.2 zip file.

I'm not familiar with few acronyms(CMIIW, TWRP). Could you please elaborate with steps?
Any reference link would also help.
No need to twrp.
Just reboot to recovery, wipe all tehn flash full 2.2.3 full rom zip.
you'll loose your settings and apps installed of course
NB : I think you should wait that 3.1.3 stabilize itself. What don't you like in OOS 3? All tastes exist, I know, but I can't see the point here....

ok, I will try this step. If I go to recovery and do I need to download the rom or is it already there?
OOS 3 is buggy and draining out the battery of my device. Also, its making the device very slow.

No, you have to download it and put it in your device.
With a well parametred OOS 3 , my device never flyed so quickly.
You should start by going to apps, menus then reset apps parameters (there is a menu for that).
You can go to storage, click on internal storage and wipe cache data.
Reboot.
If still the same, instead of going backward, reflash full rom 3.1.3 zip
the best way to do it is flash bluSpark's TWRP, and then flash OOS 2.2.2

You should add that an unlocked bootloader is mandatory for that.
Be carefull, a lot of people (mainly the one that rooted via Kingroot) wiped theirs devices, going that way, without knowing it.

1.) Make sure driver signature enforcement is disabled.
2) Download this :- http://www.mediafire.com/download/4aqwyi3g1d6wc67/Qualcomm 1.00.11.rar
Keep phone disconnected from PC.
Open the folder "qc" and install the Test Certificate in the following Stores: Trusted Root, Trusted Publisher, Third-Party Root and Personal
Run the Qualcomm setup wizard (also located in the qc folder)
When completed, restart your PC again with Driver Signature Disabled. (Optional but preferred)
4) press vol up button for 10s and plug it in pc keeping pressed
The driver should now automatically install. If not, go to device manager and right click "Unknown Device" and click "Update Driver" Search up the QC folder and press ok. The driver should now install.
5) now flash it with msmtool u can downloa th 47mb one in comments

That is because the kernel and boot loader used for 14.1 is different you need to update the kernel.
Follow Mega unbrick guide carefully to unbrick the phone.

I had same issue you need to flash different TWRP. If your on 2.X.X TWRP 3.0.2 . If you have updated to 3.X.X then 3.0.3. If you have issues with 3.0.3 you can try twrp 3.0.2-0 or bluesparks 3.0.2-1 V41.
just flash the arsenic-kernel everything will be fine.. https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/development/kernel-arsenic-kernel-r2-t3422020
The problem is not the kernel but the bootloader so how to change/update recovery?

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.)

I used to have this problem. You need to flash the new bootloader, sometimes updates and whatnot doesn't flash it for you. If the zip doesn't work you can try finding the fastboot partition image and flashing to aboot (instead of fastboot flash recovery recovery.img when flashing a twrp build for example, it would be fastboot flash aboot emmc_appsboot.mbn). There was a post on the oneplus forums where the files could be found, just google dtb not found error.

Bricked my Mate 10 lite (RNE-L21) with wrong twrp

I am new here and this was my first time actually trying any of this. I have my bootloader code, if that helps.
Phone turns on to erecovery mode if powered on normally. Running erecovery downloaded and installed RNE-L21 8.0.0.355(C185). It then asked me to Factory reset, after which it booted back in to erecovery. I can put phone in FASTBOOT&RESCUE MODE by plugging it in to PC and holding power + vol. down.

I wanted to downgrade from Oreo to Nougat.
To unlock bootloader, I used Potatonv:

I installed the TWRP in this post:
TWRP For Mate 10 lite 8.0 Oreo Version For RNE-L21C185
Here is twrp for HUAWEI MATE 10 LITE. Who want? Comment Here. :p
forum.xda-developers.com
I booted in to TWRP with
-code
adb reboot recovery
I made a backup using TWRP but I lost it and couldn't make another one because of some error in TWRP.
I then installed magisk .zip file through TWRP.
The phone would boot in TWRP no matter which option I chose in the Reboot menu of TWRP. Being really impatient, I decided to flash another version of TWRP on recovery partition, with SD card, through TWRP itself. I got this 2nd TWRP from:
How to Install TWRP Recovery and Root Huawei Mate 10 Lite
In this article, we will guide you on how to root Huawei Mate 10 Lite and Install TWRP Recovery.
clickitornot.com
The new TWRP doesn't work and phone does not show bootloader unlocked warning anymore. Upon rebooting after new TWRP, phone showed this error first few times.
I'm not really sure what to do but I figured I'd run some commands that might help someone figure out what I should do.

You can downgrade to Nougat using two methods :
1. Via HiSuite
2. Using HuRupdater tool & TWRP. Unfortunately, this method needs Firmware Finder and Huawei servers are offline. So via HiSuite only.
Don't try downgrade to the lower android version via dload method flashing service ROM (aka full stock firmware), it may brick your phone.

Just realized I had to flash twrp on recovery_ramdisk and not on recovery. It works like a charm
