Installing the original oos recovery - OnePlus X Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm on Twrp recovery and i would like to know if there is a way to install the original oos recovery back to my system and of course relock the bootloader. (i have the original recovery file from onePlus download section and i know how to relock bootloader and use Fastboot in general. .) Thanks in advance for your help.

yes, you can do that.download the oneplus x revcovery from their download page and flash via adb command, similar tto the way ,you flashed twrp. Or simply download entire 2.2.0 ROM and flash via twrp recovery, reboot to system and stock recovery will override twrp.

Ohhh is that simple. That's good news. A small detail. Before the operation the bootloader should be locked or unlocked? Thanks a lot for helping.

[Q] Ando to Cyan

Ok, I need some help. I've installed Androwork (Hairybean 4.2.1 Bootloader & Recovery.zip). Now I can't install cyanogenmod. Also I can't access fastboot. I have Recovery, android and wipe data. My question is how do I get back Fastboot so I can install clockworkmod recovery and put cyanogenmod back on it?
Thanks!

I'm just glad you couldn't find fastboot because flashing Clockworkmod onto that bootloader is a very quick way to hard brick yourself.
You are automatically in fastboot when you see the 3 icons on that bootloader. You do not need to select it like before..
but... You want to use the downgrade zip in the Hiarybean thread to go back to 4.1 bootloader and compatible TWRP.
DO NOT USE CWM.

Stuck on cyanogenmod Recovery with bootloader locked (oem locked)

Hello guys. I unlocked the bootloader via adb (fastboot oem unlock) and flashed the cyanogenmod Recovery and after that i flashed Cyanogemod 13 (the official nightly).
Then I relocked the bootloader (fastboot oem lock)
Until here everything is fine. The problem is: After that I use my phone with CM13 normally, but I wanted to go back to stock, so I turn on developer options then i turned on the OEM unlocking thing, and usb debuging. And when i entered in fastboot mode to unlock the bootloader again i wrote via adb fastboot oem unlock the phone rebbot and now i am stucked on cyanogenmode recovery with the bootloader locked.
Another thing: if i flash the cyanogen 13 again the phone will allways reboot to recovery.

Never lock bootloader unless you are on stock ROM (oos). Now you need to unlock bootloader.For that you need stock ROM and stock recovery. Are you able to boot to any ROM,cm 13?
@ateresabelo maybe you have to flash stock Rom. Hopefully then it will allow you to unlock bootloader. Best of luck mate.

Thanks for the reply.
I can flash CM 13 ROM with cyanogenmod Recovery, but when the flash finish, when I reboot, the phone boot into recovery mode, and not boot into the ROM. So it flash the ROM without errors but boot into the Recovery again.

Flash stock ROM. Download it from oneplus website. And use TWRP recovery instead. Cwm is kind of obsolete and i m not sure if it works perfectly.

The thing is the recovery that i have is not CWM is the cyanogenmod Recovery (with oem locked). I only can boot into CM 13 ROM if i go to the fastboot mode and then type: fastboot continue. If I do that I can use the phone with CM 13.
But when I reboot my phone from the ROM it come back to the cyanogen Recovery and not boot to the CM 13 ROM. And I have to repeat the process: Go to fastboot and type fastboot continue in order to boot on my ROM.
So is any way to unlock the bootloader, like fastboot oem unlock (with the cyanogenmod Recovery instaled) in order to flash the OPX stock recovery or the TWRP recovery?

Ok, do one thing. Download flashify app and flash stock oxygen recovery through it. Remember this is an app. After that when you go to recovery, you should have stock oxygen recover. Flash oxygen os after that from stock recover. Try and let me know.

Just another question: for that task (flash the OPX stock recovery do I need root access?) I am asking this because I do not have the SUperSu installed. So maybe I need to use the cyanogenmod Recovery to flash the SuperSU and hope it works and then use flashify, right?

Thanks a lot. So, I am ready to do that. I have the stock Recovery for the OPX from OnePlus website and now I am ready to flash it via Flashify.
Just the last question, If I flash the stock recovery with the bootloader locked, does it will hardbrick or softbrick my phone? I just ask that, not because I dont trust you, because I trust, but because I read that is not a good ideia flash recoverys or roms with the bootloader locked.
Thanks again in advance, mate.

It worked, mate! Thanks a lot. Now I have the Stock OPX Recovery and the OxygenOS. Amazing! SO I can assume that I can now securly unlock the bootloader, flash TWRP and NEVER relock the bootloader again, right? (Unless if I have the stock Recovery and the stock ROM.)
Thanks a lot, again!!!

Just look at ROM section and decide, Its raining ROMs for oneplus x. ROMs( like zephyr, orion, ownROM etc) compiled with UBER toolchain are smoother, so you may wanna try them to get awed.

Won't boot, no recovery, only fastboot.

hello, not sure what's going on here but I can't boot normally (it just stays on the OnePlus logo)
can't boot to recovery either, still just the logo. (vol down & power)
I have fastboot, and tried to flash a genuine twrp recovery... http://i.imgur.com/TY300qg.png
as you can see from that image, it was successful - but I still can't boot into it.
if I try the hardware keys, again it's just the OnePlus logo, and if I try do it from fastboot without flashing, I get this...
http://i.imgur.com/TObXGB9.png
please keep in mind I definitely got the right image from the twrp website, and the sha1sums match.
so, I tried the official cyanogen recovery from their site instead, and it's the same story - it won't boot.
and during all this, I can't boot normally either.
at the moment I'm thinking I need some sort of full rom that can be flashed with fastboot. it may be possible to convert the flashable version from OnePlus (http://i.imgur.com/KvMHvaZ.png) to a fastboot one with a tool like sdat2img.py. But I got a FAILED (remote: Unknown chunk type) when I tried to fastboot flash system system.img with the new system.img I got from sdat2img.py
anyway, any help would be much appreciated - this is very annoying.
thank you,
Senan

You miss understand. You are trying to fastboot flash custom recoveries like twrp/cynogen. I am asking about the OnePlus X original stock recovery. You can flash full stock Rom with stock recovery.

I said in the first post that I have no recovery to boot to. Are you saying I should flash the stock recovery with fastboot? if so, how would it be different to flashing the twrp or cyanogen recovery. and if it would differ, could you try help me find a stock recovery that I can flash with fastboot?

okay, I get "Installation failed" in the recovery after about transferring about 35% of the ROM via sideload
I should also note that I get a "wiping failed" when I try to wipe from that recovery

You have to flash 2.2.2 with that recovery first. Just download it to your phone storage. Then your back into the game. I think what you did was flash OOS3 and changed bootloader. That is why you were having problems with twrp.

Your device is still locked. You need to go to the Motorola unlocking website and follow it's instructions. After that you'll be able to flash TWRP.

Stock recovery disabled via twrp, how to enable it?

Hi, I used fastboot to boot TWRP without flashing it (using fastboot boot twrp.img). Foolishly of me when exit TWRP I was asked to disabled Stock Recovery wich I swiped yes. Now my stock recovery is gone. How do I enable it via TWRP again without having to flash it? or what are my options? phone functionlity was not afected, just the stock recovery.
thanks.
imho you either use twrp OR stock recovery. so in my opinion youve done all right.
Download fastboot image.. extract boot.img from it. Boot in TWRP using fastboot .. then install->install image->boot.img(file you extracted)->flash->choose recovery, not boot when where to flash->done.
If it doesn't work then flash the whole fastboot image with mitool.

I ended up flashing the whole image beacuse it bricked when using the command "fastboot oem lock".
any idea why it bricked? i did flash a stock recovery before in order to lock it again.
After rooting it im interested in locking the bootloader again. Maybe I skipped a procedure in order to lock the bootloader again??
Right now im rooted, phone working, stock recovery (since I flashed a fastboot image with SP tools) and unlocked bootloader but I want to lock it without bricking it again.
thanks.

To lock bootloader again you must flash stock image via fastboot with "lock bootloader" bat file (it is in stock image flashtool zip). But why U need to lock bootloader? i dont see sense to do it.

Hi, thanks for the answer, I want to lock it because some features got disabled when unlocking the bootloader, like xiaomis "Find mi Device". I also read that having the bootloader unlocked may compromise your data security.
