Hard brick for OPT happens when you change critical partitions. It will follow improper firmware flash or accidental erase of certain partitions. The phone won't show any response when hardbricked.
The solution for OPT is similar to OPO - you just need a Qualcomm driver and a recover package. The only full recovery package available is very big and it restore the phone to Hyrdogen OS, with everything wiped. So it would not be very attractive.
Fortunately, thanks to this post from Chinese supporting forum, a minimal version of restore package is provided. It does not wipe user data and guarantee a recovery entry. you would normally be freed using this package. if not, please use the full package in the end of the post
Download link for driver
Download link for Recovery tool
uncompress the files to a local folder.
First step, turn off drive signature enforcement in windows 8/8.1/10. Tutorial Here
Second step, hold the power key for 20 seconds to force turn off power. connect OPT to usb, hold volume+ and power until your PC finds a new hardware (if it doesn't work, try hold volume+ and volume- together)
Third step, go to device manager in your PC, find the new "QUALCOMM-HS USB Diagnostics 9006" device. Update its driver in property page using the Qualcomm driver provided (for 32bit windows, select x86 folder; for 64bit windows, select x64 folder).
Fourth step, when the driver is installed properly, run MSM8994DownloadTool.exe in the recover tools folder, using admin privileges . Clear start in top left corner and wait for it to finish.
Now your OPT should be able to enter TWRP recovery. It still won't boot but you can manually flash anything again (like the full Oxygen OS package).
The procedure is tested by me twice. Enjoy!
p.s: sorry the recovery image in the A2001_save_brick_mini.rar is Chinese. Please download this file, change the name to recovery.img and substitute the file in the recovery tool before flashing.
UPDATE：full Oxygen OS 150805 restoration package for those who experience recovery entry problem. Note that this package wipes everything including internal storage!
Awesome, I will go ahead and make a full recovery tool that includes these files as well as the latest version of OxygenOS as I did with the Oneplus one.
You write about a full Oxygen Package? What do you mean with it? a flashable .zip or fastboot .img?

Hi,
anyone knows how I can force the OnePlus Two to enter QUALCOMM-HS mode?
I have a "semi-bricked" OP2.
It can boot, but the recovery is broken and I cannot enter it anymore. Worse enough, the bootloader is locked and I cannot unlock it anymore.
So I am kinda stuck and thought this manual would bring me back recovery. But - I cannot get it to enter this specific emergency recovery mode as boot loaders are intact.
Any idea?
Thanks
Andi

Hi,
ok, I am one step further now.
I could bring the device in that mode, flashed via this recovery tool. All partitions were flashed but still no recovery. How can that be? ooops.
I did that many time on my OPO already successfully. But of course with the full recovery package.
So question is, I would not mind starting from scratch... anybody knows where the "big" recovery package that erases everything is available?
Thanks

I'm in a similar situation to you. I lost my recovery and somehow my boot loader is locked again. I can't set OEM unlock as I am on the old version of OxygenOS.
I tried the above instructions but they don't work. The phone reboots as normal, not in to recovery. If you solve this then let me know.
EDIT: I think flashing hydrogenos using this method is the best idea. We can then select the OEM unlock from developer settings, use fastboot to unlock the bootloader and flash a new recovery. The question is how? @qwsdert4

Hi, I got the "big recovery package" in question from OP support centre in China. It will recover your OPT to factory Hydrogen OS from which you could start over. I'll upload it onto Mega very soon so stay tuned.

Precisely, that is exactly what I meant. Fingers crossed that will solve this.
It could be I successfully recoverd following a hint by user @Zyxxeil (many thanks for the help).
If all works I will post soon what I did.
But - have everything running now again. Next I try to flash twrp again and root. If that worked, I will post the steps.

This method you(side load) is for locked bootloaders
If the devices has an unlocked bootloader you can flash the imgs (bootloader,radio,boot,etc) vie fastboot right?

Well those two methods can both be done when your bootloader is locked. This method i showed was sideloading an ota update. You won't lose your data this way. Flashing the full system images wipes your phone.

Sideloading the OTA will work for both locked and unlocked bootloaders. Flashing the factory image requires an unlocked bootloader. You can flash the images individually as you described, or modify the batch file (remove the -w flag near the end) to keep user date from being wiped as well.

Quick question, and I suspect I know the answer. While not your method, if I have a unlocked bootloader, custom recovery and a kernel with no forced encryption/verity, would I be able to sideload OTA updates via custom recovery or will they simply fail?

Hello....i rooted my sm-g360az samsung phone and when i restarted the phone, it didn't boot up to the home screen. It shows the samsung logo and then becomes blank....i later on came to know on the internet that i hadnt enabled 'oem unlock' on 'developer options' before rooting. I sent the phone to samsung for repair and they sent it back to me today saying that the phone is beyond repair because it was rooted, though i hadnt mentioned to them that i had rooted the phone. How do i get my phone to work again? I need it very badly for work purposes. Can somebody help me with this....

Why do you need stock recovery?There's no stock recovery available for your device.Try to instell different twrp version for your phone.
If you Have accidentally disabled Developer options and your phone was rooted, you probably went into a bootloop, and you think the only solution is a full odin restore, bu thats not true, there is an odin flashable package that allows you to bypass the FRP custom image block message and lets you boot into the os, from there enable oem unlocking, and reroot your device with supersu. I will attach the odin flashable below for those who need it.

Simply turning off usb debugging will not throw your phone into a boot loop normally unless ou had some bad hardware or custom settings.. Only time ive seen that happen is by using data from other models. Easy way to get past it is to just take out your battery for a bit, replace it then boot into upload mode. Next youll have to try various combos releasing the buttons and presing again quickly to get back to the download mode. Alternatively boot into TWRP/STock recovery, use AT+ Commands or use a application that will boot back.
Awesome you found a little trick to simplify it ! Keep it up!
EDIT: Ohh i see.. you are on a custom rom / binary? I still have yet to have this happen but to a J700 with SynexOS on it.. Ill give this a try.
Hello...

Fastboot will restore your phone back to factory settings and I guess that's what you want. You can't restore to factory settings in TWRP as it requires unlocked bootloader. Just download the ROM and flash via fastboot

As i never did that before... - Is that simple or do i need a little "how-to" guide...
I was searching a bit here on xda, but didn´t found a little guide for that...

It's quite simple. I did it myself a few days ago. The tool does everything itself. But you should still read the thread if you are new to MIUI like me. But keep in mind the phone will format including the internal storage. I suggest you backup everything.

Ok, i think, if i would go back to stock, i would take the tool, if it is that simple (all automatical).
Thanks
