So my Bootloader is currently locked and I can't boot into recovery, it just shows the OnePlus Logo when I try to boot into it.
So currently, I have ParanoidAndroid w/root, can boot into it, can get to FastBoot, can't get into recovery, Bootloader locked, can't unlock it because the Bootloader Unlock option isn't present in this ROM, since it's not the stock ROM,
How It happened
I had the MultiROM Recovery installed, with the Stock ROM installed as the main ROM. I guess through experimenting with it the Bootloader got relocked somehow.
I eventually installed Paranoid Android, and wanted to switch back to regular TWRP, so I flashed it from recovery, that's when I lost access to it, so I booted into PA, used the TWRP app to flash the recovery, still nothing. finally tired to flash with FastBoot, that's when I found out the Bootloader was locked again.
Did "fastboot oem device-info" got this
Code:
(bootloader) Device tampered: false
(bootloader) Device unlocked: false
(bootloader) Charger screen enabled: false
(bootloader) Display panel:
(bootloader) console_enabled: 0
(bootloader) exec_console_unconsole: 0
I tried this Unbrick Guide, didn't work, here's the comment I made over there
Not too sure what to do at this point,
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x/help/tp-link-android-phone-adb-device-t3440471 maybe inbox the OP of this thread and see if he found a solution
I figured it out, in the end it's the Mega unbrick guide, but with a step I didn't see mentioned anywhere.
if you can't get your phone to show up as QHUSB_BULK:
Turn off your phone.
Hold Volume Up and plug your phone into you computer,
this will force the phone to show up as QHUSB_BULK.
Then you can use the driver provided in that guide and follow the rest of the steps as stated.
Thanks to this guide I found, https://www.gizmochina.com/2016/07/30/oneplus-series-mega-unbrick-guide-twrp-flashing/

Hi, I have tryed everything I could find in this forum now but nothing worked.
I'm installing TWRP on a Oneplus X via Fastboot as I did with an other OPX before without problems.
Now when I flash TWRP via Fastboot and reboot (holding power + volume down) TWRP doesn't boot.
The phone is stuck at the OP logo with the "powered by android" logo. I can restart it by holding down the power button for a while but then TWRP gets obviously overwritten by stock recovery.
The only thing I recognized is the output of
Code:
fastboot oem device-info
is different from the device I flashed before:
Code:
(bootloader) Device tampered: false
(bootloader) Device unlocked: true
(bootloader) Charger screen enabled: false
(bootloader) Display panel:
(bootloader) console_enabled: 0
(bootloader) exec_console_unconsole: 0
OKAY [ 0.017s]
finished. total time: 0.018s
Shouldn't the tempered flag be on true? Could this be the problem?
I really would appreciate your help! Thank you!

But u still able to boot into stock recovery right? If u r on oos 3.1.3 flashing official twrp will not work, u need to use oos3 twrp... After flashing it by fast boot, boot into it directly by giving cmd "fastboot boot nameofrecovery.img"
Thank you for your reply!
Just in this second I made a TWRP boot on my phone. I took the one from blu_spark. I guess this is kind of a oos3 twrp.
For people looking for it in the future: I took the twrp file from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/devdb/project/?id=12587#downloads
Is there an official oos3 twrp? Because I took the most recent from the twrp.me download site and it didn't worked...

Hi,
This morning i had the very bad idea of changing my recovery, and now I'm stuck!
I'm running CM13 and i wanted to update to the latest release, but I got errors, so I said "well, maybe they need their recovery and TWRP is not good anymore for some reasons.
I downloaded the new recovery from CM website (yes, it is the correct version of the phone) and installed it. Well, i don't know what happened, but now I'm stuck into the bootloader (fastboot mode detects my device in cmd)
I decided to flash TWRP again, but now my bootloader is locked (for some mysterious reason, as it was unlock by both the dev option toggle and by a previous OEM unlock command).
I've been trying to unlock it again, but nothing. I lunch
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
and all it does is coming up with this message:
Code:
OKAY [ 0.015s]
finished. total time: 0.016s
The phone reboots and it's stuck as I have access to neither recovery or OS. It just stays there and i have to go back into the bootloader.
the device info from fastboot is:
Code:
...
(bootloader) Device tampered: false
(bootloader) Device unlocked: false
(bootloader) Charger screen enabled: false
(bootloader) Display panel:
(bootloader) console_enabled: 0
(bootloader) exec_console_unconsole: 0
OKAY [ 0.010s]
finished. total time: 0.010s
I also tried with
Code:
fastboot flashing unlock
but it stays stuck with the 3 dots without doing anything.
Is there anything i can do or i have to trough my device into the bin?
thanks

Thanks a lot.
I tried rooting device as shown on youtube by oneplus developers. installed the setup file that shown there named "installer_r24.4.1-windows", installed adb drivers also from adb manager.
after that checked the following option in fastboot mode.
fastboot devices
fastboot adb devices
fastboot oem device-info
(bootloader) Device tampered: true
(bootloader) Device unlocked: true
(bootloader) Device is_verified: false
(bootloader) Charger screen enabled: false
(bootloader) Display panel:
(bootloader) console_locked: 1
(bootloader) exec_console_unconsole: 0
firstly i enabled oem unlock in developer option
then booted in fastboot
then commanded fastboot oem unlock (here problem started)
it doesn't ask for wipe data or rebooted as it was supposed to.
then i directly moved to next step of installing twrp & it was installed successful.
then installed supersu zip file which was earlier copied in storage.
then wiped cache & reboot from twrp.
after that reboot & stuck at one+ powered by android screen.
after this I have wiped data, system, cache from twrp as i was not able to boot the phone & now with no OS available.
am able to go to recovery & fastboot mode.
i want to install official firmware
i download from oneplus official site its 1.3gigs in size.
and now while I boot it into recovery my pc wont detect phone here.
how do I copy that into internal storage to flash it with twrp.
please help with this.
thanks.:angel:
I have a weird condition. First of all I was using Android 9 with twrp. Everything was fine. Today I decided to install Lineage 17.1 and first of all I needed the A10 stock rom. So I decided to use Official Fastboot rom. Installed and booted. I turn the dev options on.
Used Adb reboot fastboot to get into fastboot mode. Used the commands that I used to use.
fastboot getvar current-slot (it says A)
fastboot set_active b
fastboot erase boot
fastboot flash boot twrp.img (everything was fine. no errors so far.)
fastboot reboot recovery (I press vol+ button)
Phone boots to fastboot mode. when I try fastboot continue it changes slots and boot OS. I tried to flash twrp or orange fox or different versions of recovery to both slot but nothing works. I always end up with fastboot screen.
fastboot oem device-info
(bootloader) Verity mode: true
(bootloader) Device unlocked: true
(bootloader) Device critical unlocked: true
(bootloader) Charger screen enabled: false
OKAY [ 0.016s]
It seems OK?
I cannot install A9 it gives error (rollback protection maybe?)
How can I flash recovery now? Please help.
Edit: I will try to gain root access patching boot.img with magisk. Maybe somehow I gain access to recovery again. -> Got root access but no recovery
Solved. Tried thousands of recoveries and one worked.
Hi,
I tried to root my phone and have taken following steps:
Developer options -> OEM unlock and USB debugging
Boot to fastboot mode -> fastboot flashing unlock
copy the twrp.zip and magisk.zip file to internal storage
after reboot -> fastboot set_active b
and then fastboot flash boot recovery.img (the twrp image)
want to boot to recovery (Power + Volume up) -> don't work
want to boot to system -> don't work (don't know why)
then fastboot flashing lock to make a hard reset and boot with stock image and default settings (I think that was the big mistake)
after that command the phone want to boot and ends with the error system corrupted
Now the phone stucks in fastboot mode and has a locked bootlader.
I can not boot to recovery or to system or flash any images (with fastboot flash system system.img) or unlock the bootloader again (but flashing unlock is not allowed) or change the current slot (The fastboot flashing get_unlock_ability is 0).
This is the fastboot oem device-info:
(bootloader) Verity mode: true
(bootloader) Device unlocked: false
(bootloader) Device critical unlocked: false
(bootloader) Charger screen enabled: false
This is a part of fastboot getvar all:
(bootloader) has-slot:modem:yes
(bootloader) has-slot:system:yes
(bootloader) current-slot:b
(bootloader) has-slot:boot:yes
(bootloader) slot-retry-count:b:5
(bootloader) slot-unbootable:b:yes
(bootloader) slot-successful:b:no
(bootloader) slot-retry-count:a:7
(bootloader) slot-unbootable:a:no
(bootloader) slot-successful:a:no
(bootloader) slot-count:2
(bootloader) secure:yes
(bootloader) serialno:63ba69f84226
(bootloader) product:laurel_sprout
(bootloader) max-download-size:804261888
(bootloader) kernel:uefi
Current slot is b and that slot is unbootable (but as I wrote before I cannot change the slot).
I also tried the mi flash tool, but that also didn't work (or I made a mistake, but I don't think so).
I don't really know what to do next, one option is the edl mode (but i don't know anything about that, if that is the only way, could anyone give my some kind of tutorial) or bring the phone to a technican.
Is there way to change the active slot or the locked bootloader state with the mi flash tool?
Has anyone a tip or an idea what I could try...
to unlock to boot loader without have the flashing ability,
to change the active slot in locked state,
or anything else?
I hope I haven't forgot any important information, if so please write.
I very appreciate any help.
you need first to unlock the bootloader and then change slot. use the latest platform tools avaible
to unlock the bootloader in fastboot you should do:
fastboot flashing unlock
reboot in fastboot mode and then
fastboot flashing unlock_critical
to verify that bootloader is unlocked : fastboot oem device-info
to change slot try
fastboot --set-active=a
or
fastboot set_active a
or
.\fastboot --set-active=a
if you are planning to use miflash tool to flash stock rom, verify that you are in slot "A". DO NOT use "clean all and lock" scrip... just "clean all" script.
if you want to relock the bootloader after flashing stock rom, use the same commands but inversed the sequence.
fastboot flashing lock_critical and reboot to fastboot
fastboot flashing lock and reboot to fastboot
to verify that bootloader is locked again : fastboot oem device-info
@AlexXiaomiMiA3 - take it to the service center or use one of the online services which will re-flash your phone via EDL with an authorized Mi Account. There is no known way around this as of now.
For the future reference and as a warning for others, NEVER lock your bootloader unless you are 110% sure that your phone is 100% stock and 100% working.
