Bootloader is unlocked but after flashing the recovery with a custom one, the recovery doesn't boot. I tried flashing different recoveries but none of them boot up. However, everything else works, I can boot to fastboot mode and system as well. What might be the problem?

Hi,
I unlocked my bootloader, flashed boot.image and CM snapshot 12 and then after setting up my phone I tried installing TWRP 2.8 with that stupid TWRP Play Store app.
NOW i cannot get into bootloader OR recovery with neither the bootmenu nor adb commandline nor the Volume+- on reboot...
PLEASE HELP me get TWRP 2.8 on my device... OR get me back into Recovery... I'm going crazy here
Turning off the phone and using the volume buttons after turning it on, gives me a black screen with an orange LED for recovery. How do I fix this.
PLEASE, there must be someone out there that can help me get recovery back???

No. Flashing a FTF restores the entire device to a factory state.
Bootloader isnt affected at all

Hi,
I just bricked my OPX and I can't flash a new recovery because of "remote: dtb not found".
It won't boot normally either so there's nothing I can do.
Btw, I have unlocked my bootloader and fastboot is working.
Would appreciate advice!

Hi guys,
Before you say again a topic on a non bricked One Plus X, I would like to let you know that I've checked and try almost all of the tutorial I've seen on xda and one plus forum.
I was on CM14.1 with this ROM : https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-x/orig-development/rom-cyanogenmod-14-onyx-t3452150
Unfortunately, I made the 25-12-2016 update and it totally broke up the phone..
I download the OnePlus X OxygenOS 3.1.4 on the One Plus website. So I flash it on the stock recovery, it tells me "Install success" then I reboot and it stays on the bootlogo.
For information, I can't access the oem unlock menu if needed, but when I ask the oem device info it says unlocked. The phone is detected by the computer sometimes with unknown device and sometimes correctly with the qualcomm drivers..
I have a back up made from TWRP, I can access the device by the fastboot mode, it seems that all the operations written here worked but it doesn't install or even boot on TWRP..
Thanks for your help guys.
Are you using latest TWRP from website think version 3.0.3?

I'm not even using TWRP, since I can't boot on it.. But I tried to flash the twrp-3.0.2-2 from blue spark v41, after the installation via Flashboot, it doesn't boot up on the recovery..
So after flashing TWRP you use fastboot boot recovery.img and nothing happens?

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, worked for me.)

Start by seeing if you can fastboot flash stock recovery from any 2.X.X OOS. Then fastboot flash twrp 3.0.2. If your on new bootloader meaning latest ROMs or OOS3 then you need to boot into 3.0.2 and from there you can flash IMG of twrp 3.0.3. Make sure you boot right back into recovery after flashing any twrp or it won't stick. This worked for me when I lost my recovery twice but always remember at your own risk. Not responsible if you make your phone into a paper weight.
Fix It!

I was flashing paranoid android 6.0.2 for my device. I downloaded the zip(from the official paranoid android website) and checked the md5 checksum, which did not match. However, like a total idiot, I flashed it nonetheless. On booting, the phone gets stuck on the boot logo. I tried booting into recovery(TWRP) and performing a factory reset to no avail. I redownloaded the flashable zip for Paranoid, successfully verified the md5 checksum and flashed it again, no avail. Restore a full backup from within TWRP, no avail. My phone still gets stuck on the bootlogo. I have looked all over every forum without any results. Please help me out? I would like to get it back to functional state and flash the rom again. As mentioned, I have access to my custom recovery and can connect to my device via fastboot. I am willing to give any other information you may need.
Thanks!

Flash any 2.X.X ROM. One way is to fastboot flash old stock recovery and flash safest way I think. The other is to flash with twrp make sure after flashing the ROM to flash old twrp IMG after. Make sure you boot right back into twrp.

Assuming you're on OOS3 with TWRP for new bootloader,
- Boot into recovery
- Wipe everything except SD Card
- Flash OOS2 zip
- Boot into it
- Goto settings, unlock dev options, enable advanced reboot
- Then reboot to bootloader
- Flash twrp for old bootloader via fastboot, use this one https://dl.twrp.me/onyx/twrp-3.0.2-0-onyx.img
Done
-Now u hv sucessfully downgraded ur bootloader,flash PA or any supported roms
Used mega unbrick tool because I was unable to unlock bootloader and now I'm stuck at 1+ logo (powered by android disappears quickly), did you solve it?
edit: nevermind, adb sideload with stock OOS fixed it.

I have a RedmI Note 3 (kenzo) running Lineage OS 14.1
The RAM usage reports around 150MB of use only and there is no free RAM. So I think there is a problem with my phone and I decide to flash everything to start again.
I found a compatible kernel and flashed that new kernel and I got bootloop.
I read that if I flash the ROM again, the kernel will be replaced by the default one so I went to do that with TWRP.
Went to TWRP to flash my ROM and got error 7.
Read a bit more and I read that somethimes very old TWRP will show that message for new ROM.
Indeed, my TWRP was quite old.
Followed steps to flash my TWRP recovery to newer version in TWRP.
Now my TWRP recovery can't even work.
Try to flash ROM with ADB, but I forgot to enable debugging before bootloop.
Is there a way I can fix it?
I don't need the things on my phone.
I just want it to work again.
Thank you for reading and provide me with guidance to fix my phone.
Trying to flash MIUI ROM using MiFlash. Hope it works. Then I can work my way back to Lineage OS.
flash the miui rom using miflash by going into the edl mode from fastboot.

I have another thing to worry about. The charge light is not on and my phone won't shut down. It can only bootloop or in fastboot. I put it on fastboot now. Still don't know how to shut it down or not sure if it is charging because there is no charging light.
I followed this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-3/how-to/fix-bootloop-redmi-note-3-recovery-edl-t3521297
Flashed it, MiFlash says operation was successful but still won't boot up normally.
Now I don't have to worry about running out of battery because it boots to logo and turns off to nothing.

I managed to enter EDL mode because I have a red light flashing. But after I flash it using normal USB data cable, MIUI ROM will bootloop. Anyway, I got myself an engineering cable and flash it, MIUI boot successfully and so I proceed to flash Lineage OS. Everything is fine now.
