Hi,
I was trying to restore oxygenos on my opx.
I connected through adb and tried flashinf a recovery. The flash was unsuccessfull and I was left with my custom CM recovery(which cannot install roms due to some error). Now i tried flashing new recovery again but OEM is locked. The command for unlocking just reboots my device from fastboot mode to recovery mode.
Also, I no longer find my device using adb devices command.
Please help

Not enought infos to help you.
The most direct way is to perform the Mega Unbrick Guide.

Hi. I have had the OnePlus X for a very long time, and I have recently bricked .
Ok, here it goes :fingers-crossed:. I had a OnePlus X running CM13 with TWRP but a locked bootloader. I decided to try cyanogenmod recovery but soon realized it was terrible.
I was unable to flash img. files and the UI was unappealing to me. However at that point I was able to reboot into my ROM (CM13) with no issues. Knowing this, I thought that the only way I could get TWRP back was through a fastboot command (fastboot flash recovery recovery.img).
For me to execute that command, I needed to unlock my bootloader first, so I took all the necessary steps in the developer options settings menu. I then booted into fastboot mode and executed this command: fastboot oem unlock. This was my big mistake, as I read up after that you should not unlock bootloader on a custom recovery.
After executing this command, it booted me into recovery. I tried many times without success to wipe data and flash a rom zip via external sd card but they never worked. To make things worse, I was unable to boot up the device. Whenever I tried to power on the device, it booted straight into recovery. I am able to boot into fasboot and recovery, but that is pretty much it. Can someone please help me? I am willing to donate.
If you were able to flash the Cyanogen recovery with a locked bootloader you should be able to flash the official OPX recovery as well. You can download that from this link: https://s3.amazonaws.com/oxygenos.oneplus.net/OPX_recovery.img
Then you should be able to unlock the bootloader!
Or if @Tanner1294's doesn't help, flashing stock rom via fastboot will surely help..
PS: Don't ever flash anything on a locked bootloader.
Hi there,
I would really appreciate any help at all. My device is stuck in bootloop but its adb and fastboot work properly. USB debugging is off and bootloader is locked.
What I have already tried:
1 - to flash any rom through fastboot: impossible, bootloader is locked
2 - to adb sideload an older rom OTA: no rom will be accepted, since NBD90W is the last one and you can't downgrade this way
3 - to adb sideload current rom OTA: works just fine, only thing I could do so far, but the phone remains in bootloop
4 - install a custom recovery through fastboot image.img: impossible, bootloader is locked

You're better off looking in the device-specific forum.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x
Unfortunately, I don't see a way to fix your problem that doesn't involve erasing your user data. You may have better luck in the subforum.
I don't care about my data. I'm giving up this phone after the last thing I've tried: I have successfully installed marshmallow (finally) through LGUP, and after I reboot it... stuck in bootloop! I don't know what this device problem is, but believe its a tiny hardware problem that will allow it to flash roms through various methods, while keep it stuck in bootloop. Does this make any sense at all?
Unlock the bootloader and flash a factory image.
Do a factory reset then flash latest stock rom
Hi,
I screwed up my phone and hard bricked it, so I used the MSMDownload Tool to make it run normally again, but...
It allowed me to recover my phone, but I cannot access recovery. I also tried to update the phone, but it would hang on the oneplus logo. I also cannot unlock my bootloader, as after it completes (and says it completed successfully on my computer) it again hangs on the oneplus logo.
Could anybody help me out here with how to fix this problem? Thanks in advance!
Hello .
My condolences first. I've been there before.
Anyway can you get your device bootloader unlocked in settings then fastboot and do ya fastboot Cody terminal stuff?
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
DON'T FORGET THIS WILL WIPE WIPE INTERNAL STORAGE.
Yay! Once you done that stay in fastboot and push twrp from there. Flash latest naturally.
Code:
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot boot recovery twrp.img
That should jump into your TWRP then flash a rom if you want . But that should do it .
Hope I helped give us a thanks if I did
Hi all,
I appear to have done something wrong when flashing my device with boombox and flashing twrp. I seem not to be able to access recovery so I can update my boombox rom. I have tried button combinations, I have tried fastboot boot twrp.img in bootloader which just reboots my system, I have tried booting directly from home screen using adb which registers an error and I have tried re-flashing but unfortunately I cannot access recovery.
Any way I can get into recovery without erasing my data?

If you're rooted, give the reboot recovery app you installed after bootloader unlock root privileges.
If not then use the exact same PC ADB commands to boot to TWRP like during bootloader unlock.
I'm confused why you mention flashing TWRP after Boombox. Surely you didn't do that. You already had TWRP.
I am rooted, Recovery reboot just reboots the phone, I have tried to get into twrp by reinstalling but again does the same things just reboots the system after the corruption warning screen. I've also tried to install from the bootloader with the fastboot boot twrp.img command but it simply says waiting for device.
Sorry turns out I was flashing the wrong file from another tutorial, I was flashing 3.1.1 instead of 3.2.1

Then you didn't follow my bootloader unlock and root guide. I never mention that other TWRP, much less link to it.
You're going to have to load into Download mode and use fastboot commands, but you say you couldn't get past flashing TWRP.
Uninstall the LG Mobile Driver if you have them, then reinstall.
1st, reboot into OS, then open up Device Manager and change view to Show hidden devices. You should see a new category named 'ADB Interface' and underneath that 'Fastboot Interface (Google USB ID)'.
If not, you will also see 'ADB Device' for Other Devices category:
right click that to update driver software ---> Browse my computer for driver software ---> Let me pick from a list... ---> Show all Devices ---> Have Disk ---> Browse ---> C:\Program Files (x86)\LG Electronics\LG Mobile Driver ---> 'lgandbus' ---> 'LGE ADB Mobile Interface'
Download adb/fastboot software, download Joan TWRP 3.2.1 img file and place it in adb/fastboot folder, then send your phone into Download mode:
Open up cmd and type the following after changing directory to Adb/fastboot folder: fastboot devices (see if your device is there), fastboot flash recovery TWRP.img or (whatever file is named).img, then fastboot boot TWRP.img or (whatever file is named).img
I had previously rooted and used several roms but recently i went back to developer rom and now when i try to flash twrp via command prompt it shows WRITE TO DEVICE FAILED (INVALID ARGUMENT)! I put all the files properly retried it 100s of times but it just doesn't flash. I flashed twrp last time by this very process!
Using isb 3.0 and 2.0 didnot solve the problem
Please provide a solution!
maybe the bootloader got locked check otherwise erase and flash the whole rom using fastboot mi flash tool

Try booting in recovery again via Fastboot.
- Install Minimal ADB & Fastboot setup (search on Google or XDA)
- Go in Fastboot mode of phone and connect it to PC
- Open command prompt and go to the folder location where minimal ADB is installed
- Type:
fastboot devices
- You should see your device listed with some Alpha-numeric code
- Copy TWRP by Vashishth or official TWRP .img file in the Minimal ADB installation folder
- type:
fastboot boot your-recovery-file-name.img
If your bootloader is not locked, you should be able to see phone rebooted in TWRP else you might need to unlock bootloader again.
Also if in TWRP Install commands are not working, try "Format Data" it is different from Wiping Data partition, Format Data will clear all of your internal storage including photos and videos and files.
After that you can download ROM or your PC and try installing it by sideloading it via adb command.
Good luck!

Than it seems like yoir bootloader is locked.
Try using Xiaomi's Unlock Tool again, beware, it will wipe all of yoir internal storage as well.

How do I boot into EDL mode & how to check anti-roll back is on?, anyway to disable it?. I updated my phone to 10.2.3 couple of days back from then on, the network speed is horrible. Although I unlocked my bootloader as soon as I got my phone(I am an early adopter), I never flashed TWRP. Now when I try to flash TWRP to move to a custom ROM, I'm always getting same error as OP. All the drivers are installed, I can see my device in fastboot devices but it just refuses to flash TWRP. I can see bootloader status is unlocked!!.

AMD Ryzen has an issue with Poco F1. Try Intel PC.
Also is your TWRP in the same folder as your adb tools/are you typing the correct path?
