I copied the .zip file to my external sd card and then installed using twrp, then rebooted. I dont have a backup file. I just followed your guide to root install supersu and decrypt device and then went to install this.
Thanks for the response.

Anyway early here, tomorrow, I will upload a zip to reverse this but you are still going to have to flash the boot.img before your tablet can boot.
From power off press and hold volume down plus power, when you see next book release power keep holding volume down.
Use fastboot to flash boot.img.
Or during bootloop type adb reboot bootloader then flash boot.img

Ok, sounds good. Is there any reason you can think of for the deox.zip file causing bootloop. All of your other files were running perfectly on my tablet.

No, must be some conflict with apps you have installed, just guessing can't say without logcat.

Yes, when i first load into bootloader it says e: no valid installer medium found.
When flashing the rom, it is saying failed to mount /dev/block/by-name/system at /system: device or resource busy but then it will say successful after a few minutes.

Open this zip and flash recovery and boot.img via fastboot, then boot into recovery format system, data, cache then install, it will take sometime to install when done it will tell you to reboot system.
on new install it can take 10 minutes or so for first boot.
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347764290
How long are you giving tablet to boot? needs at least 10 minutes on first boot.

TWRP for Note 3 Neo Testing N7502

Hi all, I finally got a test built for note 3 neo n7502: http://techerrata.com/bigbiff/openrecovery-twrp-2.8.2.0-hl3gdsxx.img.tar
Please let me know if it works. Flash in Odin, make sure auto-reboot is not selected, then boot TWRP manually.

Hi
I've downloaded the file and flashed it (the zip file) by Odin as you said.
Unticked the auto-reboot and after the Odin process was done, I manually turned off my phone and boot into recovery by holding down home, power and volume up bottom.
but the phone after booting automatically goes to download mode.
It's not working.
Please guide me if I did any thing wrong.

Use Odin to flash stock recovery then you can boot again. If you can, please boot the bad version of TWRP, then reboot into download mode, reflash stock recovery, then boot android and look for /proc/last_kmsg

I think I'm already soft-bricked...

I wanted the new update so that I could move my apps to my SD card. I also wanted TWRP.
I followed this guide to install TWRP.
TWRP was successfully flashed. So I try to boot into it using 'fastboot boot recovery.img' to boot into it.
I get the 'ERROR: Remote DTB not found' message. So booting into recovery using fastboot doesn't work.
I try booting into recovery manually (volume down + power). That doesn't work either. It freezes up at the OnePlus logo.
So, since TWRP isn't working, I flash stock recovery. That worked fine, and booted into it successfully (manually).
I boot into stock recovery and followed this guide to try updating manually using stock recovery. Of course, the update fails.
I then try flashing the full dump here. I factory reset, then flashed the full dump.
"Update successful."
Now, it refuses to boot into system AND recovery.
Okay, I'll just reflash stock recovery?
ERROR: Remote DTB not found
Booting into recovery manually freezes up too, just like TWRP did earlier.
Is there something I'm doing wrong to get this error? Google tells me dtb errors are caused by corrupt IMGs, but I downloaded all the IMGs twice and from all available mirrors to try them out. I see that some other users in the OnePlus forums and in XDA are having the same problems when flashing TWRP.
I really just need to be able to boot into at least one recovery so I can flash a system dump again.
I am not sure if this is the cause of the problem, but I've noticed most OnePlus X users have the E1003 model, while I am using a E1005.
Any help is appreciated.

I followed this guide to install TWRP. Like a few others in the thread, I had the problem that when I try to boot manually into recovery, the screen shows the OnePlus logo with the android logo. Then the android logo disappears, and no matter how long I hold the down button while booting, the screen freezes at the OnePlus logo.
Fine, I'll just use fastboot boot recovery.img .
Nope, I get the 'ERROR: Remote DTB not found' message. Still stuck on the fastboot screen.
Great, I'll just flash stock recovery. Cool, it worked.
I booted into stock recovery and followed this guide to try updating manually using stock recovery. Of course the update fails.
Maybe I can just flash the full dump here. I factory reset, then flashed the full dump. Now it refuses to boot into system AND recovery.

ERROR: Remote DTB not found
Booting into recovery manually gives me the same results as flashing TWRP did earlier. So now, I can neither flash stock recovery nor TWRP to install any OxygenOS.

Well, pressing volume up + power actually takes me to bootloader mode.
Volume down + power, on the other hand, shows the OnePlus logo and the Android logo for a split second. Then the android logo disappears, the OnePlus logo stays, and it freezes there.
In case my post wasn't very clear, the same thing happens even if I don't attempt to boot into recovery (as in, it does the same thing if I just press the power button to boot into the system).

Tried all of these steps on two other PCs already, on both Windows 8 and Windows 7. It's not a driver issue or OS issue.
Guess I'll have to wait until the system IMGs are out, unless anyone else has any other suggestions.

You can boot to stock.img?
I have the same dtb error when I try any twrp image I have attempted to flash...exactly like your issue, but stock works fine.
If you can get into stock you can flash the full rom zip of 2.1.2 and then flash the ota to 2.1.3 after.
You have to flash the full zip first.

Originally, I could boot to the stock recovery. However after flashing that full 2.1.3 dump that I linked to, I can't boot to system or recovery. Flashing stock recovery now gives me the same remote:dtb not found error.

Error when trying to update to EMUI 4.0/ Marshmallow after rooting

Recently Huawei released the official Marshmallow update for Honor5x. I followed the update from setting but only to be restarted and brought to TWRP recovery without any updates. So, I downloaded the updated manually ( so I can flash via TWRP ) only to find the update is not in .image but .app, which means TWRP won't be able to flash the update.
So I took alternatives to install back the stock recovery from Huawei, which I succeeded and I got back my Huawei Stock Recovery. I then try updating via setting update, it downloaded the update, and installed it via stock recovery. But halfaway updating I got ' System Failed to Update '. I suspect it might have to do with my Cyanogen Mod that I installed 2 months ago.
Any idea how I can update to official Marshmallow?

Download latest firmware on a PC, use huawei update extractor to extract boot, system, Cust and recovery images.
Flash them in fastboot mode and then do a forced update.
(UPDATE.APP in dload folder in root of SD, turn off phone, press and hold power + vol up + vol down until boot)
YOU WILL LOSE ALL YOUR APPS AND DATA so make a backup before doing this.

Maybe by flashing full images in fastboot.

Download you phone's stock firmware(refer to the file depot thread). After that, use Huawei Update Extractor and extract the files in update.app, you should get system.img, recovery.img, boot.img and flash them all using fastboot.

Stuck on the bootloop after installing SuperSu

I followed the steps given in a post ( not able to post url) and after installing the Supersu the phone is stuck on the boot loop.
I saw posts where the users want to go back to the stock image however i need the phone to be rooted, any suggestions what might be causing the boot loop and how i can fix it.
PS: I have twrp backup and last resort will be to give up rooting and restrore from it. Appreciate your expertise in advance!

That is way outdated man. And avoid following guides from 3rd party sites. Always search here in XDA. You flashed an outdated TWRP. Flash THIS latest version. Restore your backup for the moment, then flash the latest SuperSU. 2.82. The site you gave both give outdated TWRP and SuperSU.

To add: I also cleared the cache and data and it was successful. The Supersu mentioned something about writing on boot loader and said it would reboot the phone.
After that, the phone didnt came up

No luck , same results. I guess i should try to restore the backup and give in for now. There is something wrong with the boot sequence which i cant seem to figure.
The rooting apps write on the boot sequence and then it gives the error i mentioned. I really appreciate your help though, if you find something interesting please update here.

[Stock Recovery] Getting back to Stock Recovery after you've flashed TWRP.

As you know, TWRP still doesn't support FBE, so in-case if you wanna flash another system.img the Wipe data/factory reset in TWRP wouldn't work (at least didn't work for me).
That would force you to get back to stock recovery, which allows a successful factory reset.
Steps are pretty straight forward, if you already have a backup of your stock recovery just do the below steps, if else you could download one from the below link.
Put the device into fastboot mode. There are two ways to do that.
1)By long pressing the power button and volume down button whilst the USB is connected.
2)Just do a adb reboot bootloader command if you could boot into the system.
Then just do
Code:
fastboot flash recovery_ramdisk recovery_ramdisk.img
Then disconnect the USB and long press the power and volume up button until you see the "The device is booting now" message.

- Stock recovery for BKL-L09
Thanks, you saved me.
Thanks
Just created a md5sum of your recovery and my backed up recovery. It's exactly the same size but the md5sum is different.
A quick look with a hex editor also shows some big differences. Is that expected?

MD5 hash wouldn't possibly match, because the backup was taken using dd and there might be some config files modified or added when I used the stock recovery once. But, hey the thing would work if you have BKL-L09 device
Thanks. This works!

Not sure, as it might check integrity before giving updates. Just download Firmware Finder app and check for updates constantly.

You will receive the updates but you won't be able to install them with TWRP. Simply flash the stock recovery and the updates will self install when they come. You'll have to root again with Magisk after the updates, but that's a simple process.

Hie,
How can I get back from lineage OS to stock using this? I guess I'm on the same boat as a lot of people out there and could really use some help here. I'm on Cosmos OS and can't go back to stock. I tried flashing this recovery.img but can't figure out a way back.
Reboot to bootloader, flash system recovery_ramdisk and ramdisk. Reboot to recovery wipe cache, reboot system enjoy.
Works every time fine for me

Apparently, there isn't any system.img file in the Indian firmware I downloaded. The rest are there but not the system.img.
Someone please help me out
I can't flash system.img as I was told in an earlier reply, it returns me an error that says 'Error: Cannot load System.':crying: I tried using -P and 256M commands to see the space divided and none of these worked either. CAN SOME PLEASE HELP ME OUT WITH THIS?
I cannot find system.img in the Indian firmware either, that is making things tough for me.

You should have made a backup before you started "tinkering" with your device. Lesson learned, hopefully.
